Chapter Fourteen: Storm(1/2)
After negotiation, Angry Shark agreed to become the navigator on this voyage, and was escorted by Eminem and Dre to the third floor of the dungeon.
In the office, Su Xiao looked at the map on the table and wanted to go to Nightmare Island. The shortest route was to arrive at the "Ghost City" in the west by land, go to the sea from the coast there, and then head to the sea to the west. This sea area belongs to
Trade routes, alliances, northern empire, and merchant ships from the Holy Orchid Kingdom will all choose to pass through here.
For Su Xiao, sailing here is very safe. Even if he is unlucky and the ship sinks, he can swim back with his physical fitness.
The Sea of Thieves reached by continuing to the west is not dangerous to Su Xiao. It is true that pirates are a group of desperadoes, but the danger these desperadoes can bring is relatively speaking. When encountering Su Xiao, the danger is
They are the ones who are right, not Su Xiao.
In Su Xiao's plan, he first needs to borrow an alliance ship, but it is impossible to sail through the dark sea with this ship. At most, he will reach Skull Island in the Sea of Thieves.
The area of Skull Island is not small, which also leads to this place almost becoming an island country. The kings of the four seas, namely the four pirate kings, are the owners of this pirate island.
This is also the reason why, even if the pirate group under the Pirate King does not often burn, kill and loot, they still have a lot of gold coins. However, there are currently only two kings of the four seas left.
Originally there were indeed four, but one of them, Angry Shark, was imprisoned in a lunatic asylum because his younger brother robbed a jackpot, while the other King of the Four Seas was attracted by a big deal and robbed a ship sailing in the Sea of Thieves.
On the merchant ship at the junction, what the King of the Four Seas didn't know was that the Northern General was on that ship.
From then on, the remaining two kings of the four seas began to rarely rob ships, and found that developing Skull Island seemed to be more profitable and the risk was much lower than plundering ships. The job of plundering ships was really too dangerous.
, you have no idea who is on the merchant ship to be robbed.
The reason why Skull Island is called the country of pirates is because all the pirates on the Sea of Thieves, as long as they rob property, ninety-nine times they do it on Skull Island.
When making a move on Skull Island, 40 to 50% of the profits must be divided up by the two kings of the four seas. Why are the unruly pirates willing to tolerate this? The reason is that compared with the pure black market, selling stolen goods to the kings of the four seas is more convenient.
The price of the shop below should be at least 30% higher.
Su Xiao's idea is to reach Skull Island first and then buy a sailboat there. This is the only way to cross the dark sea.
A long time ago, some crazy pirates would form animal hunting groups and go deep into the dark sea to hunt sea beasts. Over time, the gap between these animal hunting groups and pirate groups became apparent.
Facts have proved that the beast hunting group, a profession that relies on its own ability to make a living, has development prospects. The warlocks of the Four Gods Religion and the Holy Orchid Kingdom, as well as the Winter Wizards of the North, these three groups combined have a large number of people.
They all have a huge demand for the materials produced by the dark sea beasts, especially the warlocks of the Holy Orchid Kingdom, who are somewhat obsessed with it.
If there is a need, there will be a market, and if there is a market, there will be experts in this field. Generations of the hunting group have paid the price of blood and death, and finally figured out what kind of ship is more suitable for sailing in the dark sea.
First of all, it must not be a metal ship. Under normal circumstances, metal cannot float on the water. This will definitely attract the attention of a large number of dark sea beasts, stimulate their violent instincts, and be besieged.
Bone ships are better than wooden ships, wooden ships are better than stone ships, and stone ships are better than metal ships.
This is natural, the dark sea beasts will not be interested in the skeletons floating above, even if it is a pile of closely connected skeletons, they are just bones.
In addition to ship materials, the second is kinetic energy. Sail kinetic energy is better than fuel kinetic energy, and fuel kinetic energy is better than soul spell kinetic energy.
There is a saying in the dark sea, even if you use the most old-fashioned fuel engine, which makes a terrifying noise, don't use the soul spell without sound as the driving force. The soul energy released when the soul spell is running is the dark sea beast.
This is also why several soul stones are embedded in the hollow structure on the hooks of the hunting group.
The price of a three-masted ship made of sea animal bones is at least 1,600 to 2,000 pirate gold coins. Calculated proportionally, one pirate gold coin is equivalent to 10,000 to 10,800 gulang. This is a huge amount and difficult to change.
Currency is very inconvenient, but unfortunately, the people in the hunting group only recognize this kind of gold coins.
Su Xiao has no shortage of channels to exchange for pirate gold coins. What he lacks now is gulang. This time when he goes to Skull Island, he must prepare at least 5,000 pirate gold coins, which means he needs 50 million gulang to exchange.
Of course, Su Xiao has a way to quickly get 50 million gulang, but the subsequent troubles will definitely be more than the profit of gulang, so it is better to get gulang through formal channels. Overall, the time cost is smaller, if
He obtained the 50 million gulang by letting Bubu steal the Merchant Alliance Bank, so the knowledge he had mastered for so long was really in vain. Knowledge can not only derive power, but also wealth.
Su Xiao took out a piece of formula parchment that looked tall but was actually made of ordinary materials. He also took out an old-style quill pen and a bottle of semi-dried ink, and began to write the potion formula.
Based on the materials in this world and the vast amount of pharmaceutical knowledge in his mind, he came up with a pharmaceutical formula for nourishing organs and improving vitality activity in half an hour.
The effect of this formula is average, but the main thing is that it is simple to prepare. You only need to strictly follow the process and it can be prepared in small batches. After some operation, it is no problem to prepare hundreds of bottles every day.
Su Xiao picked up the phone, pondered for a few seconds, and then chose to dial Mayor Perkin's number.
After ending the call, Su Xiao took out a complete set of tools and began to age the formula. This was not to deceive anyone. The formula was absolutely real and effective, and the effect was strong. However, it was better to be prepared for the coming. After all, yesterday
, Vice Dean Yesinger has just been poisoned by the Dark Cult.
Not long after, a gold bank manager came to the lunatic asylum and took away the formula for appraisal. Naturally, Mayor Perkin did not participate in this business and could not participate. Instead, he served as the introducer. The result of the negotiation was that Su Xiao
This provides technology and makes it easier for relevant departments to open the door. The president of the gold bank is responsible for the funds and corresponding talents, etc.
Although this kind of cooperation is good, Su Xiao is not prepared to participate. There are medicines that can nourish organs and increase vitality activity as the core products. Once this business develops, it will definitely be a cash cow, but it takes time, and Su Xiao doesn't have that much
Time, and the final result was that the president of the Gold Bank bought out the right to use the pharmaceutical formula from Su Xiao for 65 million gulang, as well as 30% of the subsequent share.
After determining the formula problem, the matter was quickly settled under Irene's agent. However, what Irene sent to Su Xiao was not 65 million gulang, but 6,500 pirate gold coins, plus a portion worth 200
A chart of the dark sea with multiple pirate gold coins. This chart is obviously the sincerity of the gold bank.
After the whole matter was dealt with, the final result was that the Gold Bank accounted for 80% of the profits from the subsequent business, Su Xiao accounted for 10%, and Irene accounted for 10%.
It is natural that Irene will share 10% of the subsequent profits. Not to mention that Irene was very busy in this matter, dealing with the deputy dean Yesinger and dealing with the criminals in the underground prison. Irene has always had a clear position.
Choose to side with the new dean Su Xiao.
Under such circumstances, it would be unjustifiable if Su Xiao did not bring out some visible benefits.
Su Xiao opened the large suitcase on his desk. Inside was a stack of pirate gold coins sealed with oil paper. He opened a stack with a click, and a dark gold pirate gold coin with a skull printed on it rolled into his hand. This piece
During the whole process, Su Xiao only studied the mysterious eye in the office, and signed a transfer contract sent by Dre. This is the convenience brought by having enough knowledge.
Putting the pirate gold coins back in the big suitcase, the most basic financial problem was solved. Su Xiao began to think about candidates. Eminem must bring it with him. If he was really lost in the dark sea, Su Xiao felt that even if the angry shark could not find the direction, he would be confused.
Even Eminem can find his bearings. Eminem is a very good swimmer with the "Swimming Proficiency Level 20" ability based on his own training.
Of course, Boobwang and Baha are also with them, and the three members of the assassination team can also be considered. Veronica's sniper cannon is more powerful than the kinetic ship cannon, and Silverface has superior perception ability. As for Dre, among the assassination team,
, Veronica is what counts when the wind is flowing, Silver Face is what counts when the wind is blowing, and Dre is the one who relies on Dre when facing a desperate situation.
In addition to these candidates, although Irene is also responsible for combat power, the other party has to stay and guard the lunatic asylum to avoid problems here.
The three people from the Sun God Sect can meet together. The platinum bishop, the red-eyed girl, and the beast knight are all responsible for combat power.
Finally, add the Angry Shark, and after arriving at Skull Island, recruit several members of the hunter group there. In this way, the success rate of going to Nightmare Island will be higher.
"Boss, Bishop Platinum is here and waiting for you outside the main gate."
Baha flew in from the window and spoke. Hearing that the other party did not come in, Su Xiao roughly guessed what was going on. Unexpectedly, the work efficiency there was so high. It seemed necessary to invite these three people together this time.
After Su Xiao and Baha left the lunatic asylum together, they got into Bishop Platinum's car.
"Bai Ye, the Parliament House hasn't given you any trouble lately?"
Bishop Platinum spoke while driving. The car he drove was quite loud except for the horn which was not too loud.
"Why is the House of Councils giving me trouble?"
Su Xiao was sitting on the bumpy passenger seat, holding the door on the side with one hand. It wasn't that he was unstable, but he felt that the door and the seat under him would fall out. As the director of Dusk Lunatic Asylum, he couldn't afford to lose it.
This person.
"You took care of Vice Dean Yesinger yesterday, and there was no further trouble?"
"Who said I was the one who took care of Yesinger?"
"Yeah~, that's right, he was assassinated by the Dark God Cult."
The two chatted for a while. Under Su Xiao's chat skills, the car quickly fell into silence. The car did not stop until dozens of kilometers outside the countryside.
Su Xiao opened the car door and got out of the car, and finally threw the thing into the ditch amidst Bishop Platinum's exclamations. Before Bishop Platinum could speak, Su Xiao had already thrown a car key to him.
"The Alliance's department is rich, but then again, where is this car parked? It can't be in the urban area of Kusi City, it's far away."
"without,"
"That's good."
Bishop Platinum threw away the keys in his hand and was happy to receive a new car.
"Stop in the Holy City."
"Holy shit, so far?"
"There is a teleportation array."
"That's okay. I'll use the teleportation array to go there later. There won't be any charge for teleportation."
"The third floor of the lunatic asylum is free."
"Be sure to lend it to me."
Hearing Bishop Baijin's words, Su Xiao paused in his steps and turned his head to look at Bishop Baijin. He said nothing. It was indeed the first time he encountered someone who wanted to use him to set up a teleportation array.
When the two arrived at an abandoned manor, they could faintly hear a roar coming from inside. Hearing this sound, Bishop Platinum coughed slightly in embarrassment.
"Baiye, that flying dragon egg develops very fast, so fast that it makes people doubt that this kind of creature is born for fighting and war, but now there is a small problem."
"Speak directly."
"Well, for some reason, the red-eyed girl and the flying dragon don't like each other. I guess it may be because the red-eyed girl woke up and found herself in the flying dragon's stomach."
After hearing this, Baha, who fell on Su Xiao's shoulder, smiled and said: "The red-eyed girl has such a good temper."
The group of people walked into the bloated old castle. The first thing they saw was the golden and white chains restraining the demonic flame dragon. At this moment, the demonic flame dragon, which was unable to breathe fire, was glaring at the red pupils in front of them.
female.
