Codex Pirates

Chapter 246 Preparations for Air Combat

Shi Ke's subordinates came to the room and dragged away the corpse and the injured. The lion's head also collapsed, revealing Harden who was unconscious, and they also took him down.

The golden lion Shiji greeted the rest of the people to drink with his normal expression. Everyone drank in a dull atmosphere, but no one spoke.

"Master Shiji, if you want to obtain the key technology of the ship, you should go to the East China Sea." Crowe put down his wine glass and spoke first, breaking the atmosphere of silence.

Although the other members of the expedition team had also surrendered to Shi Ji, they were always a bit awkward, and no one spoke. At this time, seeing Crowe's eagerness to surrender, he couldn't help but have complicated eyes.

"Donghai?" Shi Ji asked with interest, "Is this kind of ship a new technology of Donghai?"

"Almost, this kind of ship was built by a man named Morgan William in the East China Sea. The design drawings and the shipbuilder who participated in the construction of this kind of ship should have returned to the East China Sea by now." Crowe said slowly.

Crick looked at Crowe with some admiration. This person is really flexible and ruthless. He was originally William's trusted confidant and high-level executive who controlled important intelligence agencies for William. He did not expect that he would be unrivaled when he saw the golden lion Shiji. After his power and reputation, he immediately sold William's information.

What did he say these things to do? Do you want to lure a ferocious and powerful pirate like Golden Lion Shiji to the East China Sea?

"Shut up!" Someone seemed to be thinking about going with Crick, and he couldn't help shouting loudly.

These people are all from the East China Sea, where they have their family and friends, and under the influence of William's propaganda and public opinion, they are becoming more and more regional. Going to the East China Sea, Crowe's words made them feel vicious, and they wanted to exchange their hometown for credit in front of the new owner.

The Golden Lion Shiji looked at the nervous expedition team members, and suddenly laughed loudly: "You don't know, I was going to the East China Sea!"

...

East China Sea, Kalmar City.

When Nami went ashore, she saw people talking on the pier.

Kensuke, the sheriff of the village, originally wanted to accompany Nami to sign up for New East College, and even wanted to stay in this city to take care of Nami.

But now, Cocoyasi Village, which has just escaped from the rule of the Dragon Pirates, is in dire straits, and the village has just turned its back on the Kingdom of Falaise and put it in the embrace of the Kingdom of Navia. Nami doesn't want to bother Kensuke with a lot of things at this time, and the village can't do without him.

Nuo Qigao was also dismissed by Nami with similar reasons. Now Nami thinks that she can already take care of herself. She has even stolen money from pirates. In terms of wit and courage, she is no less than many adults.

Nami, who was curious in her heart, gathered in the crowd and listened silently for a while, only to realize that the envoys of the Kingdom of Falaise had just left the pier.

Nami felt complicated when she heard the name of "Kingdom of Fales". Cocoyasi Village was originally the territory of the Kingdom of Fales, but in the most difficult years of being ruled by the Dragon Pirates, the rule of the Kingdom of Fales Those who are almost indifferent to the suffering of their people.

If it wasn't for help from the Navia Kingdom, I don't know how long it would take for the Dragon Pirates to be driven away.

In the village, an adult like Kensuke may feel guilty about leaving the country as a last resort, but in the heart of Nami, who was once imprisoned by Aaron, she has no feelings for this country, and even has some resentment, the degree of resentment is only It was inferior to the human beings she discovered when she peeped at Aaron's base.

Over the years, Nami has been suspecting that those humans are making deals with Aaron and his group, because as far as she observes beside Aaron, many of the supplies of the Dragon Pirates are not obtained by looting, then There is only one possibility, which is to make deals with others. There are almost no murlocs in the East China Sea, so it is obvious that only humans can make deals with the Dragon Pirates.

This speculation made Nami hate it deeply, and she has been brooding about it all the time. She plans to investigate what happened back then when she grows up and has the power to protect herself.

On the other hand, the news of the arrival of the envoys from the Kingdom of Falaise also reached William's ears, but he is not interested in talking to him now, and asked the attendant to arrange for these foreigners to find a place to live, so he continued to listen to Edmond and others. The person reported the situation when returning to the voyage.

The ships of Edmond and others arrived at the port of Kalmar City in the morning. Once there, William divided the international students into several teams according to the established plan and arranged them to each of his shipyards. He put the construction of new steamships on the agenda and returned. In addition to loading people, there are also a lot of goods on the ship, which are some of the new steam ship parts completed in the capital of seven waters. Because the Carrera company has insufficient funds, the other parts can only be transported back to the East China Sea. Let the East China Sea The shipyard can solve it by itself, but this can also greatly shorten the time for launching a new ship.

Other cadres, such as Edmond, Selkirk, Jesus cloth, etc., were called to William's office to inquire in detail about the disappearance of Harden and others.

In fact, during the return trip, Edmund and the others were also discussing and researching this issue on the ship, sorting out some doubts and clues.

So Jesus waited for William to ask, and said: "On the night Harden and the others disappeared in their boat, I seemed to vaguely see something rising into the sky. It might be their boat, but it was too dark at that time, and I couldn't see it clearly." , I thought I was wrong."

Jesus Bu is a sharpshooter, and his eyesight is far superior to that of ordinary people. Only he can see some abnormalities when the distance is unknown in the dark.

"Ascension?" William frowned and thought.

"Could it be because of Sky Island? We heard someone mention it when we were on Gaya Island." Edmund looked at William, then at Dampier, and wanted to ask for a testimony.

William didn't know much about Sky Island, so he also looked at Dampier.

"The description of the empty island in the book is not like this," Dampier rubbed his chin with his index finger and thumb, and said doubtfully, "If what Jesus saw was true, then there was something that made the ship silent. Ascend to the sky, but the sky island is just a region, and it does not have this ability."

"If it wasn't Sky Island, where would it be?" Edmund muttered to himself.

There was a moment of silence in the room, and even William had no clue. He was very smart, but he was not a god. It can be said that there was no clue or clue about Harden's disappearance. In this case, no one could do anything.

"The primary goal now is to speed up the construction of new steamships." After a moment of silence, William said with a cold face. Balloons and airships."

Harden and the others disappeared near the Great Shipping Route and the Quiet Belt. The only way to find them is to go there. Traveling and searching requires more new-style steamships. Regardless of whether they disappeared because of the empty island or not, William is ready to take the time Go and have a look, he has a hot air balloon, and has recently developed an airship. It is not difficult for him to go to the island.
