Volume 3 New World Chapter 27 Black Sails
The sea breeze is howling and the waves are surging.
The Nanfang was unstoppable, heading northward against the waves.
This time when the Southern was restarted, there were big changes.
First of all, there is a change in name . Although Ma Wen is not afraid that the White Elephant Chamber of Commerce will cause him trouble, it is better to have less trouble than more.
On the side of the ship, the words "Jiangang No. 1" were clearly written in white spray paint.
And Jiangang is the name of the new port that Marvin built at the mouth of the White River.
Coincidentally, Ma Wen had difficulty in naming, and after the new port was built, naming obviously became a big problem.
Fortunately, he suddenly remembered that day that Laura had mentioned this name when she was trying to persuade the sailors to rebel, so he simply went with the flow and named the new port "Jian Port".
From a topographical perspective, the Baihe River flows straight into the sea, and the coastline at the estuary is cross-shaped, which is quite similar to a sword.
There is a feeling of being sharp.
At the same time, Marvin kept his promise and promoted the second mate Roberts to captain, who was in charge of all affairs of the ship.
Generally speaking, the captain of a ship has the most power on board.
But what made Roberts a little depressed was that among the people accompanying him this time, not to mention Viscount Marvin, both Miss Anna and Miss Lola were one level higher than him in rank.
This was a bit of a pain in the ass for the ambitious young captain.
Fortunately, Marvin and others did not seem to intend to interfere in the affairs of the ship. Only Laura was responsible for the delivery of the goods, and Anna went to Perch Harbor to handle the administrative procedures.
The White River Valley today is no longer what it used to be. After Marvin was promoted to Viscount and his legendary power skyrocketed, Anna's status as Marvin's housekeeper naturally rose as well.
In order to adapt to the rapid development of the White River Valley, Marvin simply distributed power. As Anna was the one who had followed him the longest and was the most loyal, the administrative power of the White River Valley was basically in her hands.
This time, the Southern set out to visit Perch Harbor with the purpose of opening up a new route.
The opening of new routes needs to be reported to the Southern Wizarding Union. Otherwise, it would be illegal trade and would not be protected by the union, which would be no different from a pirate ship.
This requires Anna to use her talents. Marvin himself has long stopped getting involved in these tedious matters.
He was just taking advantage of the situation and providing support to Jiangang No. 1, which was setting off for the first time.
He had the Crown of Poseidon in his hand, which could speed up the manipulation of ocean currents, dramatically increasing the speed of Sword Port No. 1 and greatly shortening the time to reach Perch Port.
And his destination was not the Perch Port, but the Chiba Forest which was very close to the Perch Port!
The tomb of the Night King is right there.
Before leaving the White River Valley, Marvin discussed the matter with the old blacksmith, who hesitated for a long time and finally handed the key to Marvin.
Few people knew about Hathaway's affairs, but the legendary masters seemed to have heard of it. Although the old blacksmith was not a legend, he had a lot of prestige and was connected to many legends. He seemed to know about Marvin's affairs.
But he didn't say much, just told Marvin to be careful.
Marvin naturally understood.
To survive in this world, you must be careful, especially those of us who are often in crisis situations. We must be more careful at all times.
Marvin asked himself that he had made many enemies since he came to Fenan, and after a major incident like the plane traction technique, the gods might have their eyes on him.
Although they cannot reach Fenan now, they always have a way to trick Marvin.
So be careful with everything.
…
On the deck of Sword Harbor No. 1, Aragorn staggered and looked at the waves in the distance, his face full of curiosity.
"You said you had never seen the sea before?"
Laura stared at the handsome prince with wide eyes: "So what do you have there?"
Aragorn shrugged and smiled gently: "Forest, lush forest."
"This world is so wonderful. I have a lot of vocabulary that needs to be improved. I have only seen descriptions of the ocean in some royal books before, but I have searched every corner of the Pusen world. We only have lakes there, not oceans."
Laura nodded slightly.
The two chatted for a while, and Aragorn suddenly pointed at the lonely figure not far away and whispered:
"About Lord Marvin, do you know him?"
Laura was confused by this sudden question. She counted on her fingers and asked:
"Younger than me, likes to be in the spotlight, Pisces... Is this considered understanding?"
Looking at Laura's serious expression, Aragorn remained silent.
Is she serious?
The powerful Lord Marvin... in the eyes of this girl, is he just such a simple boy?
Aragorn was skeptical.
That's the man who can defeat gods!
In Nottingham, everyone showed great admiration for Lord Marvin. Of course, during his time in the White River Valley, he could also feel the love of the residents for Marvin.
But what surprised him was that this kind of love was not a kind of worship.
When it comes to Laura, many people have different views on Marvin.
The White River Valley CFO was grateful to Marvin because he gave her the opportunity to display her talents.
Other than that, there is no other special emotion.
Aragorn was becoming more and more curious about Marvin.
He was about to continue asking, but at this moment, a strange sound of wind suddenly came to his ears.
The sound of the wind is mixed in with the sea breeze, and most people cannot detect it.
But Aragorn is different!
He practices the way of Storm Swordsman and has a special perception of the element of wind!
He turned back suddenly and saw some dark shadows vaguely appearing on the distant horizon.
"What is that!?" Aragorn asked in surprise.
"pirate."
I don’t know when Marvin turned around and stared coldly at the dark shadow in the distance.
Aragorn was slightly startled.
Unexpectedly, Marvin noticed these movements earlier than himself.
Before he could ask what the word "pirate" meant, there was a sudden uproar on the boat!
The sailors felt vaguely uneasy.
Obviously, the lookout also saw that the black shadow was approaching at a speed visible to the naked eye!
Roberts' face turned pale, and he quickly approached Marvin: "Sir, it's the [Black Sail Fleet]."
"This is the open sea. Their base should be in the archipelago in the north of the Misty Sea. They should have robbed a group of merchant ships and are preparing to return."
"But if we let them catch up, they probably wouldn't mind making this trip more rewarding!"
"We are a little faster than them, but if your servants can help..."
What Roberts was referring to, of course, was Marvin's storm spirit.
With the Storm Elves, the Black Sail Fleet will surely not be able to catch up.
Who knew that Marvin shook his head and said calmly:
"Get ready for battle."
