Pirate System

Chapter 269 Rewards (Part 2)

"Many thanks to the Governor for your support, great kindness and great virtue, I will never forget it." Tangke said respectfully, not arrogant at all.

However, Golden Beard waved his hand, mercilessly poking out: "Whatever is unforgettable is bullshit, in order to fulfill my promise, I played you around and almost killed you before, you don't know in your heart. You will hate me so much. If you had the conditions, you would have stabbed me to death long ago."

Tang Ke hurriedly said, "I don't dare to be here."

Golden Beard interrupted: "Even if you dare, what can you do? Well, listen to me first. You are right to say this or do it like this. No matter how much you hate me, you have to pretend to be like a little mouse. The survival rule of young people is to talk less and think more. When you are weak, it doesn’t matter how servile you are. The real strong person is to be able to bend and stretch. Those who lose their minds and lose their lives on impulse , is not a strong man, just a reckless man. Being able to survive in a difficult environment, grow continuously, and finally be shamed, this is what the strong man does for you, there is a little shadow of the strong man, otherwise , I'm too lazy to tell you this."

Talking less and thinking more is indeed a good word for young people. If you talk too much, you will lose too much, and if you think too little, you will not be able to make progress.

Tangke chewed on Golden Beard's definition of a strong man, his heart was up and down, like the rolling sea.

"Too much gossip, let's talk about business now. I promised before that as long as you help me complete this agreement, I will give you some rewards." Golden Beard finally got to the point.

Tangke's heart was beating wildly, and he was very excited. Because he was thinking about this reward, he couldn't fall asleep last night after tossing and turning, and now he finally got it. Seeing that Golden Beard was quick to talk, he omitted the annoying excuses and said bluntly, "I don't know what the Governor wants to give me?"

"Have you heard of Turtle Island?" Golden Beard asked casually.

Turtle Island

Tangke's eyes lit up, that's an amazing thing

As the name suggests, Turtle Island is an island on the back of a giant tortoise. The island covers an area of ​​about 5 square miles. It is not small in size, but it has all the internal organs, mountains and running water, as well as houses and farmland. There are 10,000 mu of fertile fields, sheds and fruit trees on the island, enough to feed tens of thousands of people. There is also a "bull spring" on the island, with clear spring water bubbling out all year round, so the most important water source is not a problem.

The giant tortoise carrying the island is extremely old. It is said that it has lived for a thousand years. Another theory is that it has lived for tens of thousands of years, but there is no way to verify it. Turtle Island was created by the strong in ancient times. First, he tamed the giant tortoise with his tyrannical strength, then he spread the land on it, and transplanted the "not dry spring" to gradually improve it. Turtle Island has changed hands several times, served multiple owners, and is now owned by the Goldenbeard Pirates.

The beauty of Turtle Island is that it is a small island that can move. Although the giant tortoise is slow, if it is used well, it can play a huge role. For example, to keep Turtle Island on a certain route, it has a commercial role or strategic significance. Some routes are too long and there are no supplies along the coast, making it difficult to navigate. If Turtle Island is located in such a place, it can attract ships to land all year round and make a lot of money. In some remote supply ports, prices can be set very high. For example, if you assign ten gold coins to a bottle of wine, if a passing navigator is greedy for this wine, he will buy it even if he knows he has been extorted.

Taking the commercial value out of the way, Turtle Island's combat capability is also very impressive. After so many years of construction on Turtle Island, many forts have been erected along the island, and the defense capability is very strong. And the giant tortoise itself is also the overlord in the sea, shaking its head and swinging its tail, can set off a giant, open its mouth, and shred warships

If Goldenbeard rewards Turtle Island, it is really developed

Tangke swallowed and nodded dryly, "I know."

"I have given an order to let Turtle Island go to the vicinity of the small pirate city. You can take over when that time comes." Golden Beard said lightly. In Tangke's eyes, Turtle Island is a great gift, but in his eyes, Turtle Island is dispensable.

"Thank you for your generous gift, Lord Governor," Tang Ke said with joy and gratitude.

"Don't rush to say thank you, it's not over yet."

Tangke's eyes widened, and he said in surprise, "What other rewards?"

Golden Beard snorted: "You dislike too many rewards?"

"Not much, not much" Tang Ke waved his hands again and again, how could anyone dislike treasures biting their hands?

Golden Beard couldn't be in the mood to make fun of the younger generation, and immediately took out something from his arms. He was as tall as a mountain, and that thing was like a small toy in his hand, but in front of Tangke, it was not small.

This is a scroll with a simple and elegant appearance, black in its entirety, with a leather texture, and no text on it, but an ancient pattern is drawn, which is the image of a man holding a lightning bolt. Although the scroll looks ordinary, the things taken out of the golden beard are naturally extraordinary, and the scroll is easily reminiscent of a magician.

Tangke was itching to see it, but he knew that Golden Beard would definitely explain something, so he didn't rush to use the investigation technique.

"This scroll is ready to use, and it can imitate the lightning magic of a seventh-order magician. It is powerful enough to collapse. This scroll is not used according to the number of times, but according to the magic reserve inside. According to my estimation, about It can still be used for ten minutes. In these ten minutes, the holder can be empowered by lightning and imitate the lightning ability of the seventh-order magician. Of course, you can also use it several times, each for one or two minutes. For a seventh-order magician, it only takes a minute or two to kill a person." Golden Beard really said.

treasure again

Tang Ke has seen the strength of a seventh-order powerhouse, not to mention a seventh-order magician. With this scroll, he can help him kill several powerhouses. This scroll is excellent whether it is used to kill or protect himself. Treasure, very useful to him. Zera's shadow suddenly flashed in his mind, the murloc's icy grin, and the black-filled staff, like a nightmare. He has the curse of Zela on him, and the next goal is to kill Zela. With this scroll, he is enough to do this, and use lightning to smash Zela to ashes

"Okay, you got the reward too, let's go." Golden Beard waved his hand and ordered the expulsion.

Tang Ke was extremely satisfied with the reward this time, but he couldn't turn around and leave. His face sank and he said respectfully, "I have something to ask for. You told me again and again that I should not stay in this duel. I have room to spare. I did as you said, took chances, and won by luck. Although you are very strong and don’t care about it, your subordinates have a lot of criticism about it and are very dissatisfied with me…”

"These idiots don't understand the meaning of this duel to me at all." Golden Beard frowned, "Has anyone threatened you among my subordinates?"

Tangke couldn't say anything about Hogan. After all, there were differences in relatives. Hogan was Golden Beard's capable subordinate. He said that Golden Beard would not treat Hogan like that, but would cause himself annoyance. He could only shake his head and say, "No, but some people's eyes are really scary. I can't afford to provoke those powerhouses of the sixth, seventh, and eighth ranks."

"I can't let them go wrong. If my subordinates go to Qiuhou to settle accounts, there is no place to put my face in a duel. It is to be fair, and if you lose, you will lose. If you lose, you go to the trouble of finding the winner. That's what the rats did. Well, I will go down and warn my subordinates. I can guarantee that my people will not trouble you." Golden Beard took it all and smoothed it out.

Tangke was not very relieved about such a verbal promise, but if he continued to entangle with this matter, Golden Beard would definitely be unhappy, and he would also appear to be small and boring.

"Thank you again, Lord Governor, for your generous gift to continue watching the scenery here. I'm leaving." Tangke took the scroll, stuffed it into his arms, bowed to say goodbye, and slowly stepped back.

"Wait." Golden Beard remembered something, and suddenly stopped Tangke, "I have one more thing to remind you, from now on, I will no longer be your umbrella, whether you live or die at sea, It has nothing to do with me. Besides, don't use my pirate flag any more. Otherwise, I will settle the account with you as an impostor."

Tang Ke suddenly remembered this matter. He didn't pay much attention to it before, but after thinking about it, he was saved many times because of the protection of the golden beard. If it weren't for that ordinary pirate flag, he would have been killed by Michael or Zera long ago. Now that Golden Beard threatened to withdraw this blessing, he suddenly felt like a crab had been shelled, lost his sturdy armor, and was covered in weaknesses and flaws.

"Young eagles will never learn to fly under the wings of eagles. It's not a good thing for you to be under my protection. With the current strength of your pirate group, you should also feel the cruelty of the sea." Golden Beard looked into the distance. , said Yoyo.

cruelty of the sea

Tangke knew that this matter was irreversible~www.readwn.com~ simply faced it calmly and smiled: "To be honest with the Governor, I have also fought many tough battles, and have been tested by life and death. I have seen the cruelty of the sea."

"Without my protection, the navy and bounty hunters will soon find you, and then you will know what cruelty is. Death will follow you, and you will encounter countless enemies, which you will face every day. Tests and bloodbaths with the enemy. Only by being tempered with blood can you develop a strong heart. After experiencing these, you can truly grow up and become a sturdy pirate captain. The tsunami is approaching, and you can do it yourself. ." Golden Beard said meaningfully, before Tangke could answer, he had already waved his hand, indicating that Tangke could retire.

Tangke stepped up again and slowly exited the empty hall. He is now mixed with joy and sorrow, and he is naturally happy to have received such a generous reward, but listening to Golden Beard's alarmist words also casts a layer of worry on him. The tsunami is approaching, and sooner or later there will be a great battle between the Imperial Navy and the pirates.

However, there is pressure to be motivated

In the days to come, he will devote all his energy to strengthening the pirate group, not to reverse this tsunami, but at least to survive this catastrophe.
