Chapter 56:55: Pirate Attack (Please Read!)
In the secret room, Oliveira fell asleep on the bed. He was still wearing armor and holding a sword in his arms. There were slight snoring sounds, but he slept soundly.
Maybe he has experienced too many things like today's, and they no longer cause him to have too much emotional fluctuation.
But Luo Yi opened his eyes wide and couldn't fall asleep.
For him, this 'trip' can be considered an adventure.
He tilted his head slightly and looked out the window. It was a round hole the size of a human head, with transparent glass installed, which did not hinder the view of the surrounding scenery.
However, the outer wall of the glass seemed to have not been wiped for a long time and was covered with a lot of dust, making it look very blurry.
Through his blurred vision, he could see the shimmering waves, the darkness being driven out by the light, and a red sun suddenly jumping out from the horizon, rendering the world brilliant.
That kind of beauty, that kind of dazzling brilliance, is fascinating!
Looking at the beautiful scenery at sea, Luo Yi's mind became calmer, and he fell asleep accompanied by the sound of waves.
It took about two days and two nights to sail from Fisherman's Harbor to Guano Island. Roy and Oliveira ate, drank, defecated and urinated in this secret room, which seemed very boring.
The space was too small to stretch out, so he couldn't practice swordplay. Oliveira focused on fighting spirit, honing his skills bit by bit, pushing himself to the limit of the third level.
Luo Yi is growing, and Oliveira has not stopped improving either. He was originally a third-level LV14 extraordinary wind swordsman.
I can’t say that I have learned a lot from spending time with Luo Yi during this period, but my thinking has broadened a lot.
Then, before the Divine Grace Festival, he took another step forward and reached the limit of the third stage, LV15.
At this level, if you want to break through, it is not enough to work hard, but you have to develop attribute power from the fighting spirit. What you need is a complete attribute fighting spirit method and corresponding understanding.
That is definitely not something that can be achieved overnight.
Oliveira turned to tempering his body, replenishing it with fighting spirit and pushing it to the limit.
A strong physique can accommodate more fighting spirit and increase the success rate of breaking through the realm.
This is actually the norm. Luo Yi's development model, where his physical body and fighting spirit go hand in hand, and he even has to maximize the three aspects of [strength, agility, and stamina], can be said to be unique.
Luo Yi, on the other hand, did not practice when he had free time, but kept reviewing various books in his mind.
With Deep Blue around, it was as if it was imprinted in his mind, and he began to assess the true level of this world's magic industry.
According to Loewy's understanding of the Industrial Revolution, disruptive inventions always come first in theory, and then all branch technologies have reached a certain level before they burst into being.
This is more in line with the laws of development of things!
But this world exists magic, there are all kinds of strange magical materials, and even blacksmiths have secret methods to increase the temperature of the furnace.
It is also these that make something beyond the times appear.
For example, the magic ironclad ship, in terms of defense, speed, and magic cannons, is actually far superior to ordinary warships.
It’s a pity that although such high-end products exist, they are difficult to manufacture and cannot be mass-produced. At the same time, their operation and maintenance require a sufficient number of students majoring in magic machinery.
This is also the reason why the Habsburg Empire vigorously develops magic academies. In fact, talent has become the biggest limitation to the development of the magic industry.
If we look at it from this perspective, the ability for large-scale industrialization has not yet truly evolved.
For Luo Yi, this is also an opportunity!
My thoughts flew far away, and in the blink of an eye, two days had passed.
In the past two days, Roy and Oliveira have not left the secret room, but it is not that they have been idle.
The reason is simple. They watched two good shows in the secret room through the mirror.
First, he was the older of the two detectives, and he obviously had extra thoughts about the 1,000 gold tir.
He sneaked into the captain's room and prepared to steal it.
However, he didn't know that all this was seen by Roy and Oliveira, and they did not take any action.
But Maruna Marquez, who arrived in time, discovered his whereabouts. In the end, the great detective could only awkwardly explain that he came to find Maruna.
Since Maruna was not there, he waited here for a while.
Luo Yi felt embarrassed for him when he saw that lame excuse, but Maruna did not pursue it too much.
He cares more about his children than Gentile.
The second time, a group of people broke into the captain's room and made such a noise that they almost turned the room over.
The reason is simple. Sailing on the sea has its own rules, and women are not allowed.
But there is a female warrior in the Bauhinia Mercenary Group. She is tall, agile, has a fierce personality, and is very good at sword and shield skills.
At the beginning, it was the sailors who were talking nonsense, whistling and teasing the female soldier, but they were taught a lesson by the female soldier.
These sailors are all strong and can lift swords, but compared with professional soldiers, they are nothing.
Originally, the matter would have ended there, but the younger brother of the twin detectives passed by and made some sarcastic remarks, saying something like women should stay at home to give birth.
As a result, the Bauhinia Mercenary Group and the Twin Detectives started fighting. Neither side used any brutal force, but after a brief confrontation, the Twin Detectives knew they were no match for their opponents.
So the matter came back to Maruna Marquez, and in the captain's cabin, the argument became heated.
Roy and Oliveira watched another good show and began to understand why Maruna had to ask them to take action.
Although these two groups seem to be hostile, in fact, neither of them takes Maruna seriously.
In the end, it was Maruna who finally appeased both parties by increasing the commission by 30%.
Until finally, when everyone had left, Maruna lay back in his chair, raised his head, and gave a wry smile to the mirror embedded in the ceiling.
A day later, the ship finally arrived at the destination. From a distance, a lush island could be seen at the end of the field of vision.
Guano Island, as the name suggests, is an island filled with guano.
This small island is not far from the coastline and is often a place where seabirds stop when the seasons change and they migrate.
Because there are too many seabirds, the bird droppings they excrete dry and accumulate, so that the entire island is filled with bird droppings.
So, it got a very appropriate name, Guano Island!
In fact, even pirates were reluctant to approach this smelly island, let alone merchant ships and warships.
This time, the Bloody Mary Pirates chose this place as the exchange location, which was beyond everyone's expectations.
However, this was the decision of the sea beast tamer Gis, and they had no right to refute it.
As we were getting closer to Guano Island, we heard the shouts of sailors, as if they were cheering when they arrived at their destination.
Roy and Oliveira also began to prepare, tidying up their leather armor, checking and maintaining their weapons, eating some dry food, drinking some water, and closing their eyes to concentrate.
As a result, their condition became better and better, and they became more and more energetic.
But at this moment, a scream was heard, carrying unspeakable fear, spreading throughout the ship.
"What's going on?"
Luo Yi nervously gripped his sword, while Oliveira remained calm and said, "I'm afraid it's the Bloody Mary Pirates. They never thought of letting us go to the island."
"What's the meaning?"
"Where are you looking?"
Luo Yi looked through the window, but because of the angle, he couldn't see clearly.
But there is no doubt that just as the Percinus was about to dock, another warship came out from the back of the island.
It was a blood-red pirate ship, at least twice the size of the Percinus, with three masts that could be adjusted in various ways.
On the bow of the ship is a statue of the goddess of the sea, but her arms are raised high like fists.
This is the symbol of the pirates, and when needed, it can also be transformed into an iron fist for charging.
Of course, it is really useless to deal with Maruna's small boat, as the size difference between the two is too big.
The flag flying on the bow was a bloody skull flag with two crossed bones, as if symbolizing death and the end.
This is the Bloody Mary, a pirate ship that has become a feared ship on the Silver Sea, making countless sailors tremble in fear.
The appearance of the Bloody Mary was accompanied by the howling of countless people, filled with excitement and desire to kill.
The Percinus wanted to escape, but that was not Maruna's order, but the sailors on the ship acted on instinct.
But the Bloody Mary suddenly accelerated, as if something was pushing it, and crashed directly into the Percinus.
boom!
There was a shaking of the sky and the earth, and the two ships collided with each other. Countless hooks were thrown out and directly hooked the edge of the Percynas.
Then, countless pirates descended from the sky pulling ropes, occupied the high ground, holding weapons and watching with eager eyes.
Among them, there are actually handheld magic firearms. Although it is the oldest reloaded version, it must be able to be activated.
There's actually a magic gunner among these pirates?!
When the pirates boarded the ship, the sailors huddled together and trembled. However, the mercenaries and detectives hired by Maruna performed at their expected level.
They formed a defensive formation, protecting Maruna in the middle, holding their weapons high and aiming at the enemy, appearing quite calm.
Seeing that a fight was about to break out, Maruna immediately stood up and said, "Wait, wait!"
He first held down the longbow of the leader of the Bauhinia Mercenary Group, shook his head slightly, and then walked out of the guard circle alone.
He shouted loudly, "I'm here to redeem my captors. I've even brought Gentile with me. If Captain Keith wants to kill us all, who will dare to do business with you in the future?"
His voice was as loud as it could be, even a little cracked, but his shouting was effective.
Then, a loud voice rang out: "What you said makes sense! But, where's the money?"
