Crown of Silence

Chapter 570 A new legend

One day later.

Under the cliff of the fortress, the gate of the secret port is sealed with a huge iron gate. The loud sound of steel continued to come from behind the huge iron gate.

Continuous roars sounded.

The sound of power cutting axes and hydraulic presses was heard.

There were also screams.

"Mr. Ye! Help, Mr. Ye! Help!"

Igor cried and rushed forward, hugging Ye Qingxuan's thigh tightly: "Save my child quickly! Those bastards, those barbarians are going to dismantle my ship!"

Ye Qingxuan, who had just walked in, looked up in confusion and saw that the underground port had changed beyond recognition, with metal hanging towers and scaffolding everywhere.

This place has been transformed into a huge workshop.

The protagonist is lying on a high platform rising from the water, being held up by layers of steel cables, riddled with holes... That is Igor's boat, which has just been launched into the water, and he hasn't even had time to give it a name...

"So fast?"

Ye Qingxuan coughed awkwardly and looked at Carol who looked embarrassed. Carol rolled her eyes and looked at the ceiling, as if she were trying to spot a flower.

Ye Qingxuan sighed and patted Igor on the shoulder:

"Captain, you get up first...we'll talk slowly."

boom!

A loud noise interrupted his voice, and Igor let out a mournful scream, almost turning his eyes and dying. Behind them, the raised ship was completely broken into two pieces under the operation of the engineer.

Half an hour later...

"Anyway, it was almost scrapped when I saw this place."

Ye Qingxuan handed a cup of hot tea to Igor who covered his face and cried. Igor squatted on the steps with a blanket wrapped around him. He watched his ship being dismembered with tearful eyes. He had no hope of life.

"After all, it is a merchant ship. It is incredible to be able to kill the Nomad Mountain by luck. You can't hope that it can continue to sail, right? The keel is almost broken, and three and a half of the four engines have been blown. There was also a big hole burned into the front deck... Look, it’s completely hopeless.”

"Whose fault is this all?"

Igor cried: "I have saved all my life and finally bought a boat! Is it easy for me? My dream of whitewashing! I still expect it to earn me a lord at sea." …”

Ye Qingxuan sighed, "Okay, stop pretending to be a little girl, Mr. Igor. Where did there come from so many grievances between us? Who was the person who rushed into the lightless sea desperately when he saw my check? ?

I didn't force you to come here, did I?

I know that this ship is very important to you, but there is really no way at the moment... You have two choices. "

"Which two?"

Igor perked up as soon as he heard this. He wiped his eyes and stared at Ye Qingxuan with bloodshot eyes. He almost took out his portable calculator and started to negotiate the price.

"Sorry, I have to tell you some bad news first."

Ye Qingxuan raised his eyebrows: "The deposit I paid you is actually my last money, so don't expect to get another dollar out of my impoverished cult account."

"Dry!"

Igor was angry and jumped up: "Then the final payment! The final payment!"

"Why are you so anxious?" Ye Qingxuan picked his nostrils with a scoundrel look on his face: "When I save Angelou and recover Angelou, why don't you just take the entire treasury? I can easily give you ten times the reward... This is venture capital, venture capital, Mr. Igor, you have to take the risk before you get the reward.”

Igor's face was ashen and he was speechless as he pointed at Ye Qingxuan.

"Now you have boarded the pirate ship, Mr. Igor, so don't talk about refunding the ticket and leaving." Ye Qingxuan patted his shoulder and said calmly: "Come, sit down, let's talk. Talk about...your two choices."

Igor stared at him for a long time and squeezed out one word from between his teeth:

"speak!"

"First……"

Ye Qingxuan raised a finger: "Your ship has been commandeered by us, and everything that happens next has nothing to do with you. I promise you in the name of Holmes that after Avalon is recovered, there will be a ship from Yunlou City The smuggling route is entrusted to you, and only you can use it.

Next, you just need to find a gentleman who is willing to lend you usury, such as someone like me, and you can start recruiting troops and owning your own fleet.

Think about it, the annual trade between the East and the West flows through the silk route of lapis lazuli - even a fraction of one hundred thousandth is enough for you to become rich overnight. Not to mention the Lord, you only need to buy enough national bonds by then. , there must be a country willing to help you become a registered noble in the Holy City.

You will be able to add the noble word 'Feng' between your surname and first name, bid farewell to your past poor and humble life, and become a noble big shot. "

Dead silence...

Igor swallowed his spit and looked at Ye Qingxuan with wide eyes, his eyes burning red from the vision Ye Qingxuan painted.

"Are you...seriously?"

"Only if I can succeed."

Ye Qingxuan spread his hands with a scoundrel look on his face, but there was no hint of playfulness in his eyes: "But compared with the risks, the rewards are already a hundred times richer, aren't they?"

Igor had the urge to agree immediately, but a certain premonition was crawling through his mind like an earthworm, tickling his heart as if it was being burned.

He spoke, but was frightened by his hoarse voice:

"Then...what about the second one?"

"The second kind?"

Ye Qingxuan smiled, and the smile was exceptionally happy, like the way a predator would put food on the plate and hold the knife and fork tightly.

He reached out and patted Igor on the shoulder:

"Mr. Igor, you are a good captain. Even among the pirates of the Phantom Islands, you are one of the best. Raging Wave Fighter. This title is really good. I like it very much."

Igor was stunned for a moment, and then felt a little scared: "How do you...know this?"

"Do not be afraid."

Ye Qingxuan pointed at his brain: "You have to believe that I really didn't mean it. Although I am a psychic musician, and the best one, I have never had the interest to pry into other people's thoughts.

However, when my thoughts were connected to your mind, those loopholes in your mind's defenses were no different. If you are not careful, you will see everything at a glance..."

Igor suddenly looked like a lost dog, but Ye Qingxuan was still smiling and full of enthusiasm:

"You have rich combat experience and loyal character, Mr. Igor, which particularly satisfies me. Moreover, you also have eighty brave, obedient people who are just as tired of the looting life as you and want to retreat. Nice young man...and coincidentally, I can offer you a new job here.

The perfect job you never dreamed of. "

Igor was stunned for a moment, then understood and glanced at Ye Qingxuan:

"Working for you?"

"Isn't it originally for sale anyway?" Ye Qingxuan asked.

"Can prostitution and marriage be the same?"

Igor jumped up and shook his head in refusal: "Originally, we were hired! We are paid to work! Although we are not pirates, we will never give up our freedom and become your dogs!"

"...Mr. Igor, if you don't know metaphors, just don't use random descriptions, okay?"

Ye Qingxuan's expression twitched, and he sighed: "Anyway, that's it in a nutshell, serve me, and you can clear your name, recruit people, and become Angel's navy..."

He paused, looked at the ship being torn into pieces, and his voice became deeper: "I can let you pilot this unique legendary battleship in the world.

You will have the opportunity to transcend the legends of the Queen's Revenge, the Intrepid, and the Star of the Sea, and become a true legend with her. "

"Legendary battleship?"

Igor was stunned for a long time, looking at Ye Qingxuan with eyes full of suspicion: "Angru's only legendary battleship is the flagship of the Anglo Royal Navy, the royal light created by six hundred alchemists a hundred years ago - That is the glory of Angelou's navy. Even if you are a swordsman, you cannot dictate to the Queen's patrol ship. "

"Who said it was a royal light?"

Ye Qingxuan smiled and pointed to the wreckage not far away: "That's what I'm talking about."

Before he finished speaking, a roar sounded.

The wheels rotated wildly, making a low and loud noise, the steel cables pulled, the ceiling of the hidden port opened inch by inch, and then the huge thing suspended by the tower crane slowly fell from the sky.

Under the pale light, the huge shadow revealed its ferocious outline.

The giant beast that had been dead for a long time still exuded a hair-raising ferocious aura. In the huge gap above its right eye, you could vaguely see the brain that had been burnt to charcoal by the venom.

"Nomad Mountain?"

Igor was stunned.

At the command, an engineer wearing protective clothing landed on it along the steel cable. Based on the design drawing on his waist, he held a paint bucket and a brush in his hand and began to quickly mark the location of the knife.

The giant cutting machine was loaded under the huge power of the exoskeleton armor, and several workers pushed the giant saw, which was more than five meters high, to roll from the warehouse.

After assembly, do a trial operation.

The wildly rotating saws set off shrill screams, and the icy wind stung people's faces.

Under the command of several alchemists, the musicians of the Doctrine of the Faith arranged the alchemical matrix on the spot and began to prepare for the first transformation process.

After a short time, the unbelievably huge beast will be dismembered by the effects of saws and music, turning into pieces of raw materials.

The scales were peeled off, replaced with alchemy, and made into outer armor.

Drain the blood, extract the rare elements, and integrate it into the new engine. The remaining waste liquid is transformed to extract a highly efficient condensate that cannot be achieved by human technology.

After concocting the skeleton, re-laying the alchemical matrix, and soaking it in a large amount of culture fluid, the chanter will stimulate its growth again and generate a new hull skeleton.

The dead flesh and blood was transformed by the summoning musicians, and new nerve vines and circulatory systems were implanted to make artificial flesh and blood to reshape the body of this giant beast.

Igor's ship will be shattered into pieces together, and some of the recyclable materials will be smelted and strengthened and integrated with the giant monster in the sea.

The spine of the giant snake is used as the keel, the flesh and blood is used as the shell, and the scales are used as armor. The engine that cannot be made will be replaced by a modified heart. Once started, it will bring terrifying power that is not inferior to any ship.

The purifiers of the Inquisition assured Ye Qingxuan that at least 70% of the abilities possessed by the once nomadic mountain would be retained on the hull, and the music that called for tsunamis and storms in the extreme state would become the enemy's last breath before sinking into the sea. The last nightmare.

"The ship is 210 meters long, 30 meters wide, and has a draft of eight meters. The standard displacement is 30,000 tons, and the full load is 40,000 tons. The standard speed is 40 knots, and it can even be doubled in the extreme state.

Two forty-meter-long spines will be processed by the Inquisition to become its main cannon.

Unlike the castrated version of the Dragon Spine sold by the Chainsaw Monks, this time we have the fortress-class cannon of the Inquisition - the Prayer.

All other information is here. "

Ye Qingxuan threw a thick stack of design drawings into Igor's arms, looking up at the dismembered giant snake and the blood-stained factory.

"Igor, it will be the new Nomadic Mountain! A living legendary sea monster, the nightmare of all sailors!"

He paused, looked at Igor who was dumbfounded on the ground, spread his hands, smiled and asked:

"Now, make a choice. Do you want to take a gamble and become a free rich man? Or drive it, become a legend, and become a true son of the sea? "

For a long time, for a long time.

Igor flipped through the design in his hand dully. When he raised his head again, he stared at the messy factory, as if he saw the monster gradually born from the steel womb.

"It's so beautiful..."

He whispered softly, but for some reason, tears were streaming down his face.

At that moment, what he thought about was no longer the huge fleet of the smuggling giant and the countless wealth and money.

What he thought in his heart and mind was occupied by the huge warship that had not yet been born.

It was just a vague The outline of the ship made his hair tremble, and blood rushed to his head, almost flowing out of his mouth and nose.

Those were the greedy impulses and arrogant dreams lurking deep in the soul of every sailor. They were ready to move, dancing in ecstasy, crawling in his will, roaring and roaring in his ears.

Like a tide.

Abandoning the insignificant dignity and illusory freedom, he knelt on the ground and crawled forward. It was like being possessed, with only one thought left in his heart.

"Please take everything from me, sir."

Igor kissed the dust under the young man's feet devoutly, worshiped, and used up his life's piety, humbly begging: "I am willing to give everything to you, even if I am a soul. Please give me the opportunity to drive it, even for only one second."

Ye Qingxuan laughed: "Even if you give up your freedom? Igor, you should know that if you agree, you will be my dog ​​for the rest of your life. "

Igor was full of joy, without any dissatisfaction:

"That is really a supreme honor."

"Then get up, my captain."

Ye Qingxuan patted his shoulder, smiled and pointed down: "Go and talk to the chief engineer - what do you think of your future ship."

"-I promise, you will become a new legend. "
