Judging from the other party's current attitude, it doesn't seem like they are here to fight them.

Richard thought for a moment, then spoke through the five-colored conch: "Everyone from the Evil Whip Clan, what is the purpose of your coming here this time?"

There was silence on the other side.

It turned out that the three wizards who had just whipped the Naga had already sensed that there were actually three, not just one, rare human wizards stationed on the Lighthouse.

One of them in particular has unfathomable strength.

No wonder the ship in front of us can kill sea monsters like the giant squid.

This immediately made them change their attitude. Originally, they were planning to threaten the human wizard with words, but now it seems that they should give up.

The charming voice of the female Naga came from the conch: "Dear human warrior, we came here to buy the body of the sea monster just now. The body of the sea monster is of no use to you humans."

When Richard heard that the Evil Whip Naga was here to steal the sea monster's corpse, he refused without even waiting for the other party to make an offer.

"Sorry, we don't sell it to you! This is my first time eating sea monster meat, and it tastes pretty good." Richard said calmly.

Although what Richard said was true and he had no intention of selling it, this was not the case when the words fell into the ears of the Evil Whip Naga trio.

"Nathaniel, I just used a secret technique and have sensed the breath of a new supernatural organization on the human ship. I didn't expect that the Giant Tentacle Whip would actually appear this time!" said the male Evil Whip Naga holding the harpoon with certainty.

"Damn human, their purpose of not selling is definitely to take the opportunity to blackmail us."

Obviously, they misunderstood Richard's meaning and thought that Richard wanted to take the opportunity to blackmail them.

Nathaniel, the leader of the three, thought for a moment and said, "The initiative is now in the hands of humans. I think we should offer a sincere price. If they don't agree, there's nothing we can do!"

The other two thought about it, nodded, and agreed with Nathaniel's suggestion.

The current situation is stronger than people, and they cannot force the human wizards on the opposite ship to sell the Giant Touch Whip to them.

"Human, what we actually want to buy is the Giant Tentacle Whip, a supernatural tissue generated in the giant tentacle squid. We are buying it with great sincerity this time, so we are willing to bid ten high-level magic stones to buy the Giant Tentacle Whip."

At this time, a low male Naga voice came from the conch in Richard's hand.

"This price is considered high in any sea area!"

Ten high-level magic stones? This immediately made Richard swallow back the words of rejection that were about to come out of his mouth.

The bid was really higher than he expected.

Tino on the side also had a slightly red face due to excitement. Although he knew that the sea creatures would like the Giant Whip, a supernatural item, he did not expect it to be sold at such a high price.

It took Tino a while to realize that the ownership of the Giant Whip was mostly in Richard's hands.

Tino turned to look at Richard, winked at him, and whispered, "Sir, this price is indeed very sincere. If you don't have other arrangements, you might as well sell it to them directly."

"By the way, we can also ask them to escort us out of the deep sea area. If we have the Evil Whip Naga escorting us along the way, our trip will be much safer."

As soon as Richard saw Tino's expression, he knew that he was tempted. So it seemed that the offer made by the Evil Whip Naga was very sincere. In addition, Tino's final proposal was also very reasonable.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed through his mind. After thinking for a moment, Richard spoke to the colorful conch:

"Although the price is a bit low, I have two small requests. If you can agree to them, the deal will be done."

"Respected human warrior, please tell me what you want."

"First, you have to escort us out of the deep sea area."

"That's no problem. What's your other request?"

The evil whip naga named Nathaniel looked at the two people on his left and right, and saw that both of his companions nodded, and he breathed a sigh of relief. Although this request from humans was a bit of a waste of time, it was easy for them to do.

It's nothing more than driving away some sea monsters passing by.

"My second small request is that you can give me a sea chart of your Evil Whip Clan." Richard said slowly.

Richard's words caused the other party to remain silent for a while.

For the sea people, the sea chart is like the map of the human continent.

Would a human wizard provide a map to a sea wizard?

Doesn't this mean betrayal to the entire human race? "Human strongman, please change the conditions. This is absolutely not acceptable!"

Richard smiled slightly. He had expected this answer.

Richard continued to speak to the multicolored conch: "Then I want to inquire about the specific location of an island. Is this okay?"

"Well." The other party hesitated for a moment and then said, "Human strongman, please tell me the name of the island first. I can't guarantee that I know it."

"Basileus Island in the Summer Sea." When Richard said this, his eyes sparkled.

This is the result of the flash of inspiration that just occurred to Richard.

He suddenly thought that for humans, there are too many forbidden areas in the vast ocean.

But for the sea people, there are much fewer restrictions.

If these three evil whip nagas in front of him really knew about Basileus Island, Richard would make a fortune.

As soon as Richard finished speaking, the three evil whip naga groups on the sea started to discuss.

The leading naga named Nathaniel asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Have you two heard of this island?"

"Really not." The Naga holding the harpoon thought hard and shook his head.

"Well, I seem to have heard of this island, but it is very far away from here. I remember it was located in the territory of the Siren."

Nathaniel's eyes lit up immediately, and he said, "Can you draw a simple sea map? The Siren is really far away. It's close to the edge of the Summer Sea."

The beautiful female Naga thought about it and nodded, "If it's just a simple sea chart, it won't be a big problem."

"That's fine!" Nathaniel couldn't help but be overjoyed.

"Human warrior, we can give you a brief sea map of the way from here to Basileus Island in the Summer Sea. I wonder if you can accept it? Basileus Island is too far away from here, and we don't remember some of the dangers very clearly."

Richard couldn't help but be overjoyed. He didn't expect that the Evil Whip Naga actually knew the exact location of Basileus Island in the Summer Sea.

He just wanted to give it a try.

What a pleasant surprise!

Although according to them, it was just a simple nautical chart, it was enough.

It seems that after I help Meiluo solve her family’s troubles, I can go directly to Basileus Island.

Soon, Richard reached a deal with the Evil Whip Naga.

Richard didn't care about the ten high-level magic stones. He only took five and gave the rest to Tino to distribute. Richard had promised before that he would give 20% of the spoils to everyone on the ship.

Richard took the newly acquired nautical chart and looked at it carefully.

"Master, is this Basileus Island? It's really far away." Stephanina on the side couldn't help but smack her lips after seeing the map clearly.

"Yes! Very far away." Richard nodded in agreement.

This sea chart is very simple. The Evil Whip Naga did not draw out key information such as the territories and races of the various sea tribes involved along the way, but only roughly drew the locations.

But this was enough for Richard to make a preliminary estimate of the distance.

If you start from the port on the Loras Peninsula, it is almost 20,000 nautical miles!

The estimated sea voyage time is more than two months. It is a long distance! It seems that it is very important to find a reliable ocean-going ship with an experienced captain and a crew.

After all, even for him, if he stayed in the deep sea for a long time with no land around him, he might fall into the mouth of a sea monster.

The ocean is not human's home turf.

During the remaining five days of the voyage, with the fleet guarded by the Evil Whip Naga, the human fleet led by the Lighthouse had a safe and smooth journey.

Soon, the fleet left the deep sea area and arrived at the shallow sea area near the Lolas Peninsula.

"Sir Richard, we are now more than halfway through the journey. Next we will enter the shallow sea area, which is the territory of the giant lobster people." Tino saw Richard looking into the distance at the bow of the ship, so he came over and introduced.

Richard nodded. "So, we have safely passed the most dangerous part of the voyage?"

"Yes, sir. The giant lobster people have an agreement with us humans and will not actively attack us."

"How long will it take before we can reach the port of the Loras Peninsula?"

"Well, we are currently bypassing the Siren's territory. Normally, we should be able to reach the port of Abidjan on the Loras Peninsula in five days."

As soon as Tino finished speaking, Richard pointed to the side and said, "There seem to be three ships flying skull and crossbones flags, heading towards us quickly!"

"Although I'm not sure that the other party is hostile, but I think that apart from us necromancers, the only people on the ocean who use the skull as a symbol should be pirates, right?" Richard said with a smile.

This immediately made Tino's face turn red. He had just told Lord Richard that they had passed the most dangerous area, but he didn't expect that pirates would show up here.

I don’t know which group of blind pirates these are, but I must wipe them all out.

Tino looked in the direction Richard pointed and frowned slightly. "It's the flag of the Black Sail Pirates. Logically, this area shouldn't be where they often appear. If I remember correctly, they usually attack small merchant ships near the port of Abidjan."

"I don't know what happened. They actually showed up here this time and dared to attack a large ship like ours."

Tino was a little confused for a moment.

At this time, the observer on the mast apparently discovered the enemy and began to sound the alarm.

After a while, Richard heard Captain Casper's loud voice:

"Passengers, please return to your cabins immediately! Pirates are attacking!"

"All sailors, take your positions! Prepare the ballistae!!"

After a series of orders were issued, Captain Casper came to Richard and Tino, cursing, and said:

"My lord, it's the Black Sail Pirates. These blind creatures are actually looking for trouble with the Lighthouse!"

"We must teach them a lesson this time!"

Obviously, Captain Caspe was very confident in the current combat capability of the Lighthouse, especially after defeating the sea monster Giant Tentacle Squid, he was so confident that he was almost a little proud.

No wonder, who can have three official wizards protecting their ship! Now, for these black-sailed pirates who came to seek death, Captain Casper wished that there would be more of them.

Under the attack of the three wizards, the Black Sail Pirates were estimated to be killed as many as they came! The sailors were already wearing armor and helmets, holding shields, short spears or scimitars and other weapons.

Unlike fighting sea monsters, fighting pirates is mainly boarding combat, that is, hand-to-hand combat.

In previous battles with sea monsters, sailors never dared to wear armor that was too heavy.

Because facing the extremely powerful attack of the sea monster, wearing armor or not makes almost no difference, and there is a high probability of death in one blow. On the contrary, the heavy armor makes it inconvenient for the sailors to move and cannot flexibly avoid the attack of the sea monster. - At this time, on the pirate ship "Leviathan".

A one-eyed man wearing a worn-out pirate hat and a thick black beard was respectfully speaking to a mysterious black-robed man in front of him: "Sir, are we really going to attack an ocean-going ship?"

"You know, they all have ship guard wizards on board. Three ships means there are three ship guard wizards."

"Don't worry! One-Eye, you just focus on the attack. I will deal with the three wizards guarding the ship. They are just little guys at the beginning of level one." The man in black robe spoke the common language with a very strange accent.

It sounded uncomfortable, as if the common language was not his native language.

"That's fine! Then follow the orders of Lord Black Robe."

"I will arrange the preparations for the boarding battle now!"

"Go ahead!"

Although the pirate captain named "One-Eye" has a ferocious appearance and a strong aura, he has a natural fear when facing the mysterious man in black robes.

He wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead and immediately left the room, as if he didn't want to stay any longer.

After the one-eyed captain left, the mysterious man in black robe took off his hood, revealing a shiny bald head.

"Ocott Norris is really an interesting guy. He actually paid such a high price to ask me to capture his niece alive. Her name is Melo Norris."

"A little fellow who is only a third-level wizard apprentice actually asked me to take action personally, and he even specifically reminded me to take action halfway."

On the deck of the pirate ship Leviathan.

A bearded man whispered to the captain One-Eye: "Captain, why should we listen to this man in black robes? Can't we just kill him?"

"If we attack the ocean-going ship with strong defense directly, even if we can win, I'm afraid our brothers will suffer heavy casualties!"

Obviously, the bearded man was not too willing to take on such a tough task as ocean-going ships.

This time they came to this sea area from the near sea inexplicably, reportedly to help a mysterious man to carry out a mission. He and his brothers did not understand why.
