Treasure hunter, sailing on the blue sea

Chapter 17 Reaching the Destination

The first rays of light in the morning shone on the deck.

Alka's room was arranged on the left side of the stern, and sunlight penetrated into the room through the windows.

Wake up to the tinkling bell.

After getting dressed, we went to the deck.

"Everything is ready, it will be here soon."

After hearing this, Alka leaned against the edge of the boat, stuck his head out, and looked forward.

You can see a lot of ships around, big and small.

However, due to the white fog on the sea in the early morning, it was not very clear.

A vague outline can already be seen in the white mist, which should be the destination.

At this time, the ship suddenly began to stop slowly.

In the vast white fog, a huge object broke out.

A huge warship, which Alka felt was at least about 40 meters long, sailed past.

The white waves were split and splashed on both sides, and the splash felt like it was about to hit their deck.

The merchant ship was like a child next to the sailing battleship.

Alka was so shocked as he watched the sailing battleship go away.

The structure of this battleship is obviously different from the merchant ship underfoot.

The huge forecastle and stern were abandoned, and it had an extremely beautiful streamlined shape, instead of looking a bit bloated and weird like this merchant ship.

There are three tall and huge masts on the deck, and there is a single-layer artillery deck below.

There are evenly distributed artillery ports on both sides. These artillery ports were deliberately opened as if to demonstrate force.

Previously, Hols Baby's rock-shattering cannons were exposed one after another.

And it is obviously much larger than the one in Halls.

The entire battleship is red and gold, and the flag on the mast is a blood-colored flag with a golden coin painted on it.

Alka has seen this icon on the map.

It is the symbol of the Blood Gold Alliance.

Gold coin illustration on red background.

Sigurt came to Alka's side at some point.

"This is the Bloody Golden Flower, a level 4 battleship of the Alliance Navy, with a length of 43 meters and a width of 11 meters.

It has a single-layer artillery deck and is equipped with 34 artillery pieces. It is a nightmare for pirates and looks very handsome. "

As he spoke, Sigurt looked at the battleship with bright eyes.

Listening to the data revealed by Sigurt, it seems that he really likes this ship.

"Really handsome."

The "Red Golden Flower" slid past, and behind it was a three-masted sail warship about the same size as a merchant ship.

There are only a few rock-shattering cannons placed on the deck.

Stopping next to the merchant ship, a person dressed in yellow and black boarded the merchant ship and talked with Halls, handed him a document, and left again.

"Who is that?"

Hearing Alka's words, Sigurt, who was admiring the distant battleship, turned his head and took a look.

"They are the alliance's navy. They should be pulling a ship behind us to inquire about the situation."

After a while, the ship set sail again, slowly heading towards the port of the island in the distance.

Tulan Island.

One of the important member islands in the Blood Gold Alliance and the station of the Navy's Fourth Fleet.

It is also a famous large island in the surrounding area and the most prosperous commercial place in the surrounding area.

As the merchant ship took the pirate ship behind it, it slowly stopped at the berth.

The whole port has a clear view.

Parked next to the port are ships of various sizes, and several mighty warships can be seen anchored in a large area not far away.

Sigurt patted Alka and asked: "I have to follow Uncle Hols to trade wheat. Do you want to follow me or go shopping by yourself? This place is relatively safe. Just don't cause trouble."

Hearing this, Alka looked at the seaport city ahead, with various low buildings spreading out.

"I'll take a look around by myself."

"Okay, we usually rest at the white sailing ship anchor. Remember to come to us when the time comes. Just walk around in the city. Don't you want to go out and hear it?"

"No problem, don't worry."

"Also, don't make large purchases on the island. You may get ripped off. Let's wait until I finish my work and join us tomorrow."

"Okay, I'll leave first."

After saying that, Alka left the ship and walked through the workers towards the seaport city not far away.

It is already morning, and residents and businessmen are coming and going throughout the city.

The smell of sea breeze blows along the harbor from time to time.

“The freshly caught sea fish is still fresh.”

"How do I get to the Governor's Palace?"

"Join the army, join the navy, and defend your homeland."

"Mom, what's for lunch today?"

Various voices shouting and talking sounded.

Alka walked on the main road and looked at the buildings and shops on both sides. The architectural style here was not much different from that of Golden Maisui Island.

Perhaps because of the weather here, most people were wearing thin linen shirts.

The shops on both sides are about seafood and various foods, as well as some taverns.

After continuing to walk forward, it is obvious that the style here is much different.

The buildings are taller and more exquisite, and the exterior walls of each building are painted with various colors of paint. People shouting on the road could hardly be heard. Although it was still noisy, it seemed much quieter.

The people coming and going were much better dressed than the residents at the harbor.

More cotton clothes.

The surrounding shops have turned into higher-end hotels, clothing stores, some restaurants, bakeries selling bread, etc.

When passing by the bakery, Alka took a look at the high-end breads, all of which were branded with flour from Golden Maisui Island.

Not interested in it though.

I wandered around for a while and noticed a lot of interesting shops.

Alka saw the store he was most interested in, a weapons shop that connected two stores.

【Golden Blade】

There are many men choosing weapons there.

Alka walked in quickly.

There was no service staff to receive him. There were various swords hanging on the counter and on the racks behind him.

Two-handed giant sword, scimitar, dagger, stabbing sword.

The most common weapon is the sailor's dagger, which is a common weapon on ships.

However, none of these weapons are inferior to a silver snake.

A normal sailor's scimitar is usually worth about 100 copper swallows, and one silver snake can buy two of them.

He had known that he should have followed Sigurt, mainly because he couldn't choose these weapons at all and didn't know which one was better and which one was worse.

It seems I can only take a look today.

After walking around for a while, Alka saw something strange and hurriedly walked up to it.

On the counter were short, pistol-like weapons one after another.

The appearance is more similar to a revolver, and there is also a hammer structure on the back.

"What is this weapon?"

Hearing Alka's question, the salesman at the sales counter immediately walked up and took out the pistol that Alka was looking at with a smile.

"This is a rock-shock pistol, a long-range weapon."

Shocking stone? It seems that it should be based on the same principle as the rock-shaking cannon used on the previous ship.

Gunpowder structure from another world?

"How far is the effective range?" Alka opened his mouth and asked casually.

He obviously didn't know about this weapon, but he knew its effective range.

However, the salesperson still smiled and said: "Sir, the effective range is about 50 meters."

Hearing the range, Alka nodded. He didn't know much about guns, and he didn't know how 50 meters was for this kind of pistol.

But for him, 50 meters is definitely enough.

Compared to various melee weapons, coming from modern times, he prefers this kind of long-range weapon.

American Iai.

"How much does this weapon cost?"

"It ranges from three silver snakes to eight silver snakes. No matter how expensive they are, we can't sell them here."

It’s so expensive, the lowest one is worth what a normal skilled worker earns in a year.

Hearing this, Alka looked at the pistols on the counter. They were all revolvers, but they had different appearances.

Among them, placed in the middle, the label below has an eight font written on it.

This is probably the most expensive one.

"Sir, would you like to take a look?"

Without waiting for Alka's answer, he took out the pistol in the middle that was worth 8 silver snakes and put it on the counter.

Zi Guzi introduced: "This is the work of Alando Touré, a well-known gunsmith on our island. The effective range can reach 65 meters, and the ammunition used is also the more powerful No. 3 ammunition."

"As long as there are eight silver snakes, this is already a very affordable price for a master's production."

no.

How did this person figure out that I was someone who could afford so much money?
