Black sail

Chapter 3Ⅲ. Linden City

"Your waist was gnawed in the cold night in the north,
I kill like hemp in the southern sun. "

Li Site tampered with the lyrics, hoping that there would be more money in the underground bank's treasury. If there were three hundred golden dragons, at least half a year would be very nourishing, and he would be able to enjoy himself in Paradise Harbor.

"Please, don't mess with your native dialect."

Ren's head grew dizzy when he heard it, and he cried in disgust as if he had eaten a lemon. Li Si Te was still speaking an unknown language when his singing skills were extremely poor, and he was extremely beating.

"After the end, should we stay in Linden City for a while, or return to Paradise Port?"

Oaks cut to the chase, everyone on board had a warrant for life or death, and the Black Sail Pirates were well-known, and Li Si Te's reward was even more important, and sometimes he wanted to kill him.

It may take a while for the bounty hunters to come after smelling it, but things will change after a long time, the sea is safer, and it is better to return to Paradise Port as soon as possible.

"This is..."

Li Si Te pinched his chin and pondered.

There is a large island about [-] nautical miles away from the east coast of the Principality of Berma. It is called the Port of Heaven. The name is not particularly auspicious, and another nickname is "Pirate Republic".

Port Paradise is a free berth for any ship in any weather and is a great hideout for pirates and marauders.

In the year 1274 of the Holy Aram calendar, the empire marched eastward, and the Battle of the Great Wall defeated the Bema Kingdom. The line of defense collapsed, and it went straight to the Yellow Dragon. Faced with the terms of land delivery and coinage that completely ruined the country, King Bema vowed not to surrender.

However, the imperial army is like a heavenly soldier descending to the earth, fighting all the way to the coast. The king was trapped in an isolated city and was defeated. They were trapped and killed inside the palace.

In the end, he supported the distant relatives of the Bema royal family who were out of reach as puppet kings, and the Bema kingdom was changed into a principality.

It should have ended there, but the Emperor of Aram was ambitious.

Cutting down trees to build ships, metallurgy and forging swords, continuing the Eastern Expedition, and even trying to conquer the Far East Islands. The combined area of ​​these islands is even more terrifying than the already vast and boundless Western Continent, also known as Ten Thousand Nations.

At first, Port of Heaven was built as a military fortress, as a front-line base for stockpiling supplies, but the battle line was too long, and the shipping supplies could not keep up with consumption. Even if the landing battle was successful, several countries were invaded and conquered as bridgeheads, but this time Under the ups and downs, after the coalition army was pulled up, the emperor of Alan retreated steadily, and the Eastern Expedition came to an end.

Later, Tianguo Port was transformed into a commercial port, but due to the long distance, the emperor couldn't reach it. Unexpectedly, the puppet prince who supported him would also turn his back on it.

Over the years, relying on the emperor's construction here, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Port Paradise is the stronghold of pirates, looters, and shipwrecks. These people have made Paradise Port notorious, also known as the "Pirate Republic".

They often forge "lighthouses" on isolated islands and cliffs in the eastern waters to lure ships to run aground and then rob goods.

Lister...

Is one of them.

Deep in the blue, black sails flutter.

Gold and silver treasures, blood blade clanging.

Burning, killing, looting, without gods.

Youth is fleeting...all wine and meat.

This is Liszt's life.

"Let's talk about it after we get the money. We can't stay on shore for too long. The deal between me and the sheriff here is time-limited, and it won't exceed a week at most."

After thinking about it for a while, Li Site first stabilized Oakes, knowing that he is a cautious and meticulous person, and Oakes has never taken over things that have gone wrong, not once, so he was appointed as the helmsman, equivalent to the position of second officer. The rest of the people more or less worked out bad jobs.

He also planned to add some sailors. The last time he recruited people, he recruited a [-]-year-old boy who had eaten the guts of a leopard, and he was going to rob his own boat. Dozens of fugitives from all over the world were encouraged to mutiny. Fortunately, the first officer and Oakes The characters of Rennes, who are enemies of a hundred people, can hold on, and they all kill them and throw them into the sea to feed the fish. As for the leader, Rennes has been tormenting the king for a long time.

After this incident, except for the ten main members of Black Sail, all the rest also ran away after landing. Now that the capital flow is difficult, and urgently recruiting manpower, Xia Di, the idea king of the East Coast, came up with this unique skill of eating two fish.

Over the years, Liszt has recruited countless people, and many of them died. Only the hardest dog has become the core backbone with extremely high combat power. He can hold a stick wherever he goes, and he can speak well. So, only a desperado with no place to live like himself, went to sea to "do business".

"Arrive to the highest city on the east coast! Linden City!"

Ryan burst into cheers of unknown meaning.

Li Si Te frowned straightly. Ren is a psychopath, but he is also a good learner. When ordering in a restaurant, he orders what other people eat. The cool dark red leather coat was also taken off a fashionista. .

The members of the ship have also learned some oral habits.

Li Site didn't know why these words were still popular in other worlds. It was probably because they were highly versatile and the semantics in the current context were extended to the extreme.

Linden City guards a bay with a small tidal range on the east coast. The harbor is wide and the water is deep. It is a natural safe haven.

Birds hovering in the blue sky, the open grassland outside the city is lush and fertile, the road is full of traffic, merchants and hawkers are bustling, most of them are dressed in simple clothes, such as priests and knights, or wealthy dignitaries, have dedicated passages, and will not appear here.

The city walls are all gray stone, airtight, about ten meters high, there are many sentry towers, and the entrance gate is guarded by armored soldiers armed with spears.

With criminal organizations rampant along the coast, the laws have become strict.

Adventure groups and merchants must present documents with the guild's seal before they can enter the city. Even farmers who sell crops need a certificate issued by the local town officials.

The entrance was very lively, and the guards stopped batch after batch of people to inspect the documents.

The long queue lined up was full of excitement and was extremely noisy. There were people of all races, and there were many characters like adventurers and mercenaries with sharp weapons. They were also tall and big, with bad faces, and they came to the developed coastal areas to beg for food.

Oaks and Ren can be seen at a glance in the tall crowd. There are also reasons for their racial advantages, but not too much. Even if they are placed in their race, the two are ridiculously tall, talking and doing things.

A group of three people walked by, the dangerous aura couldn't be concealed, everyone consciously moved out of the way, although they were dissatisfied, they didn't dare to say anything, let alone look straight.

Li Si Te didn't have the time to be stupid and queue up for the inspection.

A muscular red-haired adventurer at the front was showing the documents of the Adventurer's Guild. Oakes didn't want to wait for a second, so he pushed the man away, almost knocking him over under the huge force, and staggered for a while. After a few steps, I squatted down and put my hands on the ground so that I didn't fall down.

This person is the head of an adventure group, and when he realized that his eyes were searching for the person who pushed him, he was about to have a seizure.

Oakes seemed to have noticed it, and glanced at it casually. The adventure leader did not dare to move immediately after seeing it clearly, staring at the huge sword weighing three hundred catties on Oakes' back, he insisted on not speaking, and held back.

There was anger in the eyes of several members of his adventure group. An archer was about to draw an arrow from the arrow pocket on his back, confident that he could shoot the big man's eyes and head through with one arrow, but was stopped by the adventure group leader. Shaking his head to the archer.

The guard saw the three of them, they were dangerous people at first glance, and they all looked a little familiar, as if they had seen it somewhere, but he didn't dare to stop them, and he didn't dare to let them in like this, so he hurriedly called the captain of the guard.

The sheriff of Linden City had said hello, and the captain of the guard knew the reason, so he didn't say anything when he came, but with so many people outside, he had to put on a show and let Li Si Te casually show what he meant.

Li Situ: "..."

But there are really no paper objects or leather scrolls on him.

Li Si Te reached into the breastplate and groped for a while, and this was the only thing left.

The captain of the guard was stunned when he saw what Li Site showed. Li Site showed his own arrest warrant. Although the gangster in the portrait did not match him in details, it was still quite vivid. Out is a person.

"Go... go in."

The captain of the guard frowned and didn't pursue it.

A group of three brazenly entered Linden City.

"Captain, why didn't you let me shoot him dead with an arrow just now? It's just that he is tall and powerful."

The archer was a little angry. He originally planned to come to Linden City to make a name for himself, but he suffered a loss as soon as he arrived.

The leader of the adventure team also felt a little useless, and swallowed it after a while, explaining: "I made some preparations before coming here, and asked the ship merchants who are familiar with this place to find out what to pay attention to, who should not be messed with, they It's a member of the Black Sail Pirates, and the nearby coast is notorious, so don't get involved."

"The Black Sail Pirates...a bit familiar, wait, isn't that the pirate gang that killed the Blue Bay Harbor lord's family two months ago?"

A swordsman thought about it, but I heard that the family of the lord of Blue Bay Harbor are not good men and women, but members of a certain cult, and they sacrificed children's blood.

"How is it possible to enter the city swaggeringly after committing such a thing?"

The archer inadvertently made a loud voice, unbelievable, those guards were blind.

"Keep your voice down." The adventure leader whispered: "Linden City is a big city, an important seaport of the Principality, not a fief directly under anyone, and the forces are intricate, and the nobles and lords inside are probably fighting each other quite fiercely, so we need to find outsiders to handle the matter. "

"I see."

The swordsman suddenly realized that these inspections were only to keep out the small fish and shrimps with criminal records, so as not to cause chaos in the city and delay earning money. The water seems a bit deep.

The archer was silent for a while after hearing this, but he was still a little unconvinced, and added: "What is this? After we make a name for ourselves and become a palace-level adventurer, these pirates and bandits are nothing but scumbags."

The leader of the adventure team smiled wryly. It is a good thing to have this kind of volunteering. There are so many capable people on the east coast. It is not easy to have a reputation in such a chaotic place.

"A palace-level adventurer, I hope so."

The head of the group stopped talking, took out the certificate of the guild, and continued to accept the inspection honestly.
