Menlev boarded the deck and greeted Tang San and the others, "My four guests, the Devilfish is about to set sail. Please enjoy the sea view of Binhai City."
The port of Binhai City faces west, and Tang San and his team's route is to the south. In order to avoid the wrong course, which would result in the route on the map not being matched, Tang San specifically said, "Captain Menlev, after leaving the port, let the Manta go all the way south."
"To the south?" Menlev asked in confusion, "Dear guest, Poseidon Island is northwest of Binhai City. If you go south, I'm afraid you won't be able to reach Poseidon Island, right?"
Tang San didn't explain much, just said: "How to reach Sea God Island is our business, what you have to do is to send us to the designated location."
Menlev had no reason to refuse. "Okay, but we have to walk along the coastline."
There was a lot of cargo on board, which, to a certain extent, allowed the Manta to reduce the amount of supplies it carried. By staying close to the coastline, it could always get supplies when supplies were running out.
As the crew pulled down the sails on the mast, the ship slowly left the port under the influence of the sea breeze.
"Xiao San, this is my first time going to the sea. I've heard people say that the sea has no boundaries." Dai Mubai couldn't help but say as he looked at the sea view in the distance.
Tang San smiled and responded: "This is my first time going to the sea, so let's enjoy the scenery on the sea."
After leaving the port, the Manta ray headed south all the way to a location not far from the coastline.
The closer to the coastline, the safer the ship is, and even if it runs aground, it will be rescued quickly.
…
On Poseidon Island.
Han Yu ended his retreat.
"I didn't make a breakthrough." He said in surprise.
Void Devouring Flame swallowed up all the spiritual energy near the Sea God Island, but he underestimated the accumulation of soul power needed to break through level 100. It was obviously not enough to rely solely on these external accumulations.
“No wonder it took the Sea God and the Angel God a thousand years to break through to the God level. This accumulation of soul power really can’t be rushed.”
With a sigh, Han Yu leaped away from the range of Poseidon Island.
This place has no effect on him anymore, and as for accumulating soul power, he can only find other ways.
During the time he was in seclusion, the residents of Poseidon Island were relatively honest. Han Yu had no intention of making things difficult for them. Before leaving, he asked the stewards temporarily selected from the Seahorse City to lead the residents of the island to live a good life.
On the other hand, the Haijiao had been wandering around the outermost part of the Demon Whale Sea for more than half a year.
"Captain, that gentleman has been gone for so long, should we return?" the first mate said anxiously.
There is a soul-cooling device in the cabin of the Haijiao. The fish they catch and put them into the cabin will not rot and stink in a short time.
But after such a long time, their cabin was already full, and they couldn't just throw all the catch back into the sea.
What happened in the Demon Whale Sea half a year ago was still easy to deal with, but the devastating scene that happened in the distance two months ago was truly terrifying.
If that noise was caused by Han Yu, it was still unknown whether he could still be alive. Moreover, no one could guarantee that such a fight would not happen again.
The second mate pushed up the frame of his glasses and analyzed, "Captain, I heard that there is a place called Poseidon Island near the Demon Whale Sea. The devastating battle two months ago must have taken place there."
"Poseidon Island is a mysterious place, and they are not easy to deal with. We should leave as soon as possible. If they knew that we had an affair with that adult, I am afraid we would be in trouble."
When Han Yu and Bo Saidong were fighting, the fresh water resources on the Sea Dragon were close to being exhausted. After the battle began, Chen Ping had already landed on the small island with the crew of the Sea Dragon.
Therefore, they were not affected. But no one can guarantee that they will have such luck next time.
"Wait a little longer, there are still three months." Chen Ping frowned and said in a deep voice.
He is a man of his word and generally does not promise others easily, but once he promises, he must do it.
Moreover, if Han Yu didn't come back, he wouldn't be able to get the balance. It was rare to see such a generous boss, so he couldn't offend him easily.
Just as they were arguing, Han Yu suddenly appeared in front of them.
Without the worries of Poseidon Island and the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, Han Yu could just fly here without worrying about anything else.
"Sir." Chen Ping and others were surprised and happy.
Han Yu didn't pay attention to their previous discussion and said calmly, "Let's return. I see that the waterline of the Hai Jiao is much deeper than before. Have you filled the cargo hold?"
Chen Ping smiled and said, "Sir, to be honest, the cargo hold has been full for a long time. However, there is a refrigeration soul guide in the cargo hold of the Sea Dragon, so these catches will not rot and stink in a short time."
Han Yu said no more. As long as it didn't affect normal navigation, it didn't matter.
Compared to the way there, the return journey was obviously much easier, and Han Yu even appreciated the scenery along the way.
…
At the same time, on the Manta.
Menlev watched the time pass by, but he still hadn't reached his destination.
There are other goods to be delivered on the ship, and he can't stay here too long.
"Dear guest, where exactly is your destination? We have been sailing for so long according to your request, but we still haven't reached our destination."
Tai Tan and the others didn't know where their destination was, and they all looked at Tang San.
According to the route map in my mind, this sea area is very close to the place of inheritance.
Tang San said calmly: "Captain Menlev is so anxious? Could the cargo you are transporting be food?"
Menlev smiled and said, "It's not food, it's some ore ordered by a Chamber of Commerce boss. The delivery time is getting closer and closer. I'm afraid I won't be able to make it in time."
Titan snorted coldly, "What kind of ore is packed in wooden boxes? Besides, we paid you so much money, but you still have to deliver the goods. It has nothing to do with us if your delivery time is delayed."
Menlev sighed in his heart. If the delivery deadline was really delayed, he would only be charged some shipping fees. Compared to 50,000 gold soul coins, this shipping fee was nothing.
When Tang San heard the word "Chamber of Commerce", he instinctively thought of the Canaan Chamber of Commerce. He couldn't help but ask, "Captain Menlev, which Chamber of Commerce are these goods from?"
On the Douluo Continent, anything entrusted to outsiders for transportation is basically considered to be at risk of leaks. This is why the Spirit Hall could have hired ordinary people to deliver letters, but instead arranged for strong men above the Soul Emperor to run back and forth on certain routes.
After all, outsiders are not as reliable as our own people.
Menlev had no sense of confidentiality, and he casually said, "It was the ore purchased by the Hanhai City Exchange in Binhai City."
"Exchange?" This term was something Tang San and the others had heard of before.
"If you buy a yellow croaker in Binhai City, you will find different people offering different prices. But in the exchange, all items are priced uniformly, so there is no possibility of overcharging or overcharging."
"If you want to buy commodities, I suggest you go to the exchange under Wuhun Bank. The price and quality there will be guaranteed."
"As for the goods, they are indeed ores. However, they are not iron ores, but some crystals mixed with impurities."
After saying that, feeling that the ship was tilting a little, Menlev said goodbye to everyone and quickly went to the cockpit.
"Young Master, these are from the Spirit Hall." Titan said in a deep voice.
The Spirit Hall is their common enemy. Since they have come across their goods, they will definitely charge some interest.
Tang San thought for a moment and asked, "Senior Tai Tan, what is the strength of Menlefu and his group of guys?"
Tai Tan replied, "Young Master, half of the crew are soul masters, and we don't know what's going on inside the cabin. Once we start fighting, it's very likely that someone will escape. These are all sea soul masters, and everyone is very good at swimming. Don't forget, this time it was Sect Master Ning who asked someone to find the boat. Once the news of our action leaks out, it will be very disadvantageous to the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect and us."
This sentence reminded Tang San that their target was only the goods, not Menlev and others.
"Just sink the ship. We don't care about the people on board, but all the goods of the Spirit Hall must be sunk to the bottom of the sea. They must not be allowed to reach them."
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
It is not difficult to sink the ship, but the difficult part is how to sink the Manta to the bottom of the sea after they leave the ship without arousing suspicion from the other side.
The method of drilling the bottom of the ship in advance and waiting for the seawater to slowly seep into the cabin was not effective at all. The Manta was a large ship with many watertight compartments inside. It would not have sunk unless there was water in multiple places on the bottom of the ship.
"Xiao San, you have a hidden weapon, right? See if you can make a delayed-fire device so that after we get off the boat, you can use the hidden weapon to pierce the bottom of the boat."
Tang San thought about it and quickly came up with a simpler method.
One of the key techniques in making Buddha's Wrath Lotus is to control the amount of gunpowder used.
Coincidentally, in order to recreate the Buddha's Wrath Lotus, Tang San stored a lot of gunpowder in his soul guide.
As long as you make a delayed fuse and ignite it when you get off the ship, it won't be long before an explosion occurs in the cabin, and it would be best if the bottom of the ship is completely blown through.
Tang San took the three of them down to the bottom cabin as soon as he said it.
He did not bury the gunpowder immediately, but found a good position first.
In order to prevent the cargo from shifting and causing the ship to tilt, the crew would come down to check every day. In order not to alert the enemy, Tang San decided to put the gunpowder away when he was about to disembark.
Two days later, in the sea area where the Manta was located, a cloud of mist rose from the sea surface without wind, and the visibility of the ship dropped sharply.
In order to prevent getting lost, Captain Menlev immediately ordered to drop anchor on the spot.
According to the route map in his mind, Tang San knew that this place was very close to the inheritance land. Therefore, this cloud of smoke was most likely a restriction outside the inheritance land.
"Mu Bai, go and help Tian Heng put the gunpowder away, we will get off the boat soon." Tang San gave instructions and then rushed to the cockpit.
Yu Tianheng was reluctant to do such a back-stabbing thing, but the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family was destroyed by the Spirit Hall. In order to seek some justice for his people, he gritted his teeth and went with Dai Mubai to bury the gunpowder.
In the cabin, Tang San said: "Captain Menlev, the smoke here will not dissipate. Send someone to lower the boat, and we will go the rest of the way by ourselves."
Menlev was surprised and said, "No, you will definitely get lost if you sail in the fog. Even if you sail out of the fog, you will most likely sail into unfamiliar waters. At that time, no one can save you."
For Herodo's sake, Menlev was quite considerate of Tang San and the others. At least, he still gave them the necessary reminders.
But Tang San insisted: "Captain Menlev, do as I say, the rest is none of your business."
"Since you insist, then fine."
As the saying goes, it is difficult to persuade a damned ghost with kind words. Since Tang San and others are determined to die, he can't say much.
Soon, under Menlev's arrangement, a small boat large enough to accommodate ten people was pushed into the sea.
This was originally the lifeboat on the Manta. In order to provide convenience for Tang San and others, Menlev brought one more.
…
"Mu Bai, is everything ready?" Tang San asked impatiently as soon as he boarded the lifeboat.
Dai Mubai said: "Xiao San, the gunpowder has been placed according to your method. Moreover, the length of the fuse is enough to burn for two incense sticks."
Before leaving, Tang San took another look at the Manta. It wouldn't be long before this big ship would sink to the bottom of the sea.
"Young Master, the mist here is getting thicker and thicker. Are you sure you can find your destination?" Titan couldn't help but ask.
Tang San nodded confidently, "Senior Tai Tan, I can feel that there seems to be something calling me ahead. I think that is our destination."
As they were talking, Dai Mubai and Yu Tianheng began rowing.
Both of them are Soul Emperors, and with the help of their soul power, their rowing speed is not slow.
Seeing the outline of the Devil Fish gradually disappear behind him, Tang San said: "The place we are going to is the inheritance place of the gods."
"God is the realm after breaking through level 100. My teacher told me that as long as we can obtain the inheritance of the gods, it will not be difficult to take revenge on the Spirit Hall in the future. Even destroying the Spirit Hall will be a piece of cake."
"God!" Dai Mubai and others looked at each other.
They were all hearing this term for the first time and did not understand what it meant.
After Tang San gave a brief explanation, they finally understood something.
"Xiao San, do you mean that you are the one chosen by the gods? Is it that god who asked you to come here to find the location of the inheritance place?" Dai Mubai asked.
Tang San nodded affirmatively.
The stone tablet was obtained by Yu Xiaogang, and he deciphered it himself. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the chosen one.
"No wonder the young master said that we had to come this time. If that's true, then we'll make a lot of money." Titan laughed.
Two incense sticks later, the mist surrounding the Manta instantly dissipated.
Just as Menlev ordered to return, a loud noise suddenly came from the bottom of the cabin, and then a large amount of seawater poured into the Manta.
After a failed rescue, Menlev was forced to abandon the ship.
