Tales of the Reincarnated Lord

Chapter 219 The Flying Fish in the Dawn

This is a strange-looking ship, with a long and slender hull, like a sharp knife. ≯＞Fiction Net W﹤W≦W≤. ＜8≦1﹤Z≤W≤. ﹤In Gaelintia, the length-to-width ratio of sea-going ships is at least five to one. But this boat is different. The hull is 30 meters long, but the widest part at the aft of the boat is only five meters. The ship is inclined, inserted straight into the sea. The tall ship statue is carved with the goddess of dawn who slays the evil dragon. A silver nameplate is attached to both sides of the smooth ship with five words: Flying fish in the dawn.

At this moment, the seven-faced white sails on the three masts of the sea ship named Dawn Feiyu are full of wind, and the arrows cross the blue sea, and the black blade mountain range in the distance is slowly moving backward. ...

Lorester stood on the bridge, and the sea breeze rushed towards him, making the black behind him unstoppable. By his side, standing by his attendant and student Swarder, as well as the leaders of the three guard camps, El, Pat, and Jim, stood beside him, the golden archer, the leader of the archer camp, and he was fighting Dulles, the deputy commander of the car battalion, and the golden knight Faria, the sailor battalion. There are two other people, one is the captain of the sea ship, the family silver knight Wilson, and the other is the helmsman old Jack.

Captain Wilson is a tall man in his thirties. He was originally the captain of a cargo merchant ship, but unfortunately he encountered pirates. The cargo he carried privately was robbed of the goods, and finally escaped but was given by the owner. When he caught it, his family of five, young and old, who were unable to repay the goods, were sold to slave traders by angry shippers. They were then bought by Bodfinger, who went to buy slaves to form a guard. He also worked hard for his family. During the journey, he repeatedly made meritorious service, and he was promoted to the family knight in the camp of the northbound motorcade in Nadgas City. Hearing about his past experience, this time he was entrusted with a heavy responsibility to become the captain of the Flying Fish in the dawn.

Old Jack, the helmsman, was in his fifties and was born as a slave. But his experience is even more sighing. He has been a sailor on the sea for 30 years. He met a widow when he was in his forties, and the two decided to live a stable life. He quit his job and took the widow back to his hometown. Within two months, the prince raised the flag of rebellion, and war in the Christian Empire began. His hometown, a small town was broken by the prince’s soldiers, his wife, the widow, died, and he was sold as a slave and became a member of the Kenmes family’s slave labor. Then Lorist returned north and he was also liberated. Now that the Norton family has formed a fleet, old sailors like him have their abilities and are appointed as chief mate and helmsman.

It is now in August 1773 in the Gailint Asian calendar. In the first April of the year, the two whaling boats manufactured by the family were launched. After being equipped with the ballista designed by Master Sid, they were frantic with whales near Whale Island. In the massacre, nearly a hundred whales became the new trophy of the Norton family. The Niujiaowan Shipyard concentrated its manpower and material resources to build this three-masted fast schooner designed by Lorist in only three months.

"My lord, this is the fastest sea-going ship I have ever seen. It has reached eleven knots when its sails are full. I believe that in Gaelintya, there will be no one faster than it. It’s a sea-going ship.” Captain Wilson was very excited, and never dreamed that he could become the captain of such a new sea-going ship.

"Yeah, I think this is indeed the fastest ship in Gailintyadu. It is estimated that tomorrow afternoon we will be able to see the Platinum Beach in the Province of West Degrad in the Principality of Madras." Old Jack, the helmsman. Agree with Captain Wilson's words.

"Oh, old Jack, have you been to the ocean here before?" Lorist asked, turning his head.

"Yes, my lord, thirty years ago, several large chambers of commerce in the empire jointly established a coastal expedition, hoping to find a suitable port along the coastline of the empire to establish a maritime transport line. I was only 23 years old. Having been a sailor for eight years, he became one of them. The expedition left from the port of Armerin in the Duchy of Rulm and traveled north along the coastline for more than three months, reaching the farthest point. It's the lost forest further north of the Black Mud." Old Jack replied.

"Then have you found all the ports you were looking for?" Lorist asked.

"No, the port that the coastal expedition was looking for at that time ended when the port of Chilin in the Kingdom of Antinac was over. Because further north, what we encounter is the same as the situation near the Blade's Edge Mountains, shallow sea, dense reefs, and sea. The ship couldn’t get to the shore at all. If it weren’t for the rescue boat to lay ashore for replenishment, the people on the ship would almost have a riot. I remember the president of the Chamber of Commerce who presided over this action cursed that this coast must have been cursed by the gods. So I couldn't find a suitable place to dock." Old Jack recalled.

"What happened then?" Sward heard it with gusto.

"Later, we went north along the coast. Everyone was doing it for money, so why couldn't we get along with the money? And those chambers of commerce vowed to find a place where they could dock, and gave us twice the bounty. Finally, we were lost. The forest found a place to dock. Then the people in the several chambers of commerce began to discuss, they wanted to take down that place, move immigrants to expand the territory, and then get recognition from the empire and become a new hereditary lord.

But one night three days later, the camping site was attacked, and huge demon orangutans rushed into the camping site from the forest in groups, and they tore everyone they saw. I was really lucky at that time to stay on board and watch. I saw the bodyguard of the president of the Chamber of Commerce, a golden two-star swordsman was torn in half by a huge demon orangutan and stuffed into its mouth. For this reason, I have had nightmares for a month...

Only forty-one of the more than 700 people who went ashore escaped back to 41. We had to abandon two transport ships to gather the manpower needed for the remaining five ships, and returned to Qilin Port in a miserable manner. The reward is dissolved. It is said that three chambers of commerce closed down due to the heavy losses of this sudden tragedy, but for a bottom sailor like me, being able to come back alive is a great fortune, so I later refused to join the expedition fleet and stayed at the merchant ship with peace of mind. Have mixed bowls of rice..."

Old Jack finally finished talking about his adventures. Shuad turned his head and asked Lorist: "My lord, is the gorilla very powerful?"

Lorist patted him on the head: "Didn’t you read my collection of Warcraft Atlas? It says ten, but the book says that the lost forest is the colony of the orangutans. It should be based on what Jack said. The experience of the expedition fleet was confirmed. The sturdy adult demon gorilla is three to four meters tall and extremely powerful. It is the top three fierce beast. If a golden swordsman can calm and deal with it, it would be true. It is very possible to leave unscathed. What Old Jack saw was just another example, and he couldn't let it out when he was flustered. This was killed. So keeping calm is the most important thing."

Schwartz bowed his head respectfully: "Thank you, sir, I understand. No matter what kind of critical situation you encounter, you must be calm and keep a clear head, so that you can find a way out of danger..."

"Haha..." Josk next to him reached out and touched Schward's head: "This kid is becoming more and more like an adult. Could it be that he became engaged at the end of last year and grew up immediately? Having a wife has changed a lot. ."

Before the first heavy snowfall in December at the end of last year, Baron Felim took his fifteen-year-old baby illegitimate daughter to Rock Castle very faithfully. Baron Felim said that the biological mother of his baby daughter should actually be regarded as his younger sister. When he was young, he studied at an old knight’s house and fell in love with the old knight’s only daughter. The two boys and girls could not help but steal food for a while. Forbidden fruit, the sixteen-year-old sister got pregnant and gave birth to this daughter at the end of November of the same year.

Two years later, Baron Felim, who was roaming outside, got bad news. When his lover went to the town to buy medicines to treat her sick old father, he was molested by the son of the new lord Baron. The girl who resisted fiercely. He gave the son of the baron a kick, and the son of the baron who was badly injured became angry. He stabbed the girl to death with a sword and sent someone to burn the sick old knight on the bed. Fortunately, the little girl escaped because of her grandfather's illness in foster care at a neighbor's house.

Baron Felim said that he was just a wandering knight and was looking for a way to rejuvenate the Pegasus family. Even if the enmity was as deep as the sea at that moment, he had to endure it until the civil war broke out in the empire five years later and he defected. The second prince, deeply reused, has mastered a soldier. So when the borrowed army passed by the town, he raided the castle of the baron who was also the second prince camp, buried nearly a hundred members of his family alive, and avenged his lover and master.

Baron Felim’s daughter, Catalina, is a sensible and well-behaved girl. She is very beautiful. She and Shuad have a good impression of each other after they met. Baldfinger was satisfied that he could have such a daughter-in-law, so under the auspices of Lorist, Katerina and Swarder were engaged, and they could be married when the girl reached the age of twenty and gave an adult ceremony. Married.

Seeing Sward's blushing, Lorist said: "Okay, Joe, don't tease my student, he's always teasing him even if he knows his face is tender. If you have that free time, you should find a wife for yourself."

Josk shrugged: "My lord, you know, my heart is dead a long time ago, and I won't be tempted by other women anymore. In this life, I'm still living freely by myself."

Lorist shook his head: "You can't do this, you have to find a good woman, give birth to a few children and pass on your magic arrow skills, so in the heaven of the **** of war, Baron Umador and your lover will also bless you. Happy."

Josk said nothing, and fell silent.

Lorester knew that it was hard to persuade him anymore, so he turned to Sward and said, "You go and see Knight Shredder, is he better?"

The Flying Fish in the dawn, the destination of this voyage is the Kingdom of Antinac. There are two things to do in Lorist's trip. One is to send the second prince who has been imprisoned in the family for more than a year to save the waste of family food. Lorester was so tired of the second prince. As a prisoner, he didn't stop, so he made a wish when he saw someone and asked to save him from the cage. In order to get to the sky in one step, there are really a few people who are obsessed with life and death. They took the second prince’s letter for help and ran to the Grand Duke Feisabrun. Then they were sent back to the Norton family territory with the letter and hanged. In front of the gate of Rock Castle.

The second thing is to seal the territory of Silovas Island. Five years ago, Lorist accepted the title of Earl of the Kingdom of Antinac, which was conferred by the Second His Royal Highness. In order to make up for his own fault, the Second His Royal Highness appointed his prince, Silovas Island, to Lorist. But because the island of Silova is lonely overseas, Lorist is anxious to lead the northbound convoy back to the family territory, so he has no time to take care of it. Now that the family has Niujiao Bay and an outlet to the sea, it is natural to visit this new territory.

The knights of the family enthusiastically signed up after receiving the news that Lorist was going to go to sea. Nested in the family territory and worked hard to start construction for so long, everyone wanted to go out with Lorist to see and see. The Flying Fish, which was just built in Dawn, was more than 30 meters long, but very narrow. Except for the necessary 28 sailors, captain, chief officer, and helmsman, it could only carry a maximum of 27 people.

Josk is going to go with Lorist, and count him a place. Faria said that he was the commander of the sailing battalion. He could not miss the maiden voyage of the Flying Fish in the dawn, so he took the second place. Dolles said that the ship was equipped with five new steel girdles, and he was responsible for teaching the sailors. Mastering the power of the family's long-range weapons, he brought five steel crossbow shooters from the tank battalion to the ship.

Sward will also bring along what Lorist is going to. El and Pat of the guard camp have to keep up when they want to protect Lorist. There is also the second prince to bring. Fatty Shi was originally not interested in going, but Lorester said that the family lacked civilian officials who could stand alone, so Fatty Shi left the affairs at hand to Sedkamp to manage. He was going to the royal city of Antinac, former Kerry. The imperial capital of the Mori Empire recruited some high-level bureaucrats to return to the family territory.

There are already fourteen people in this calculation, so Lorester asked Jim from the guard camp to bring nine guards out together. Then he can form an **** team to **** the second prince to the royal city of the Kingdom of Antinac. Your Highness.

But what I didn't expect was that Fatty Shi started to get seasick after getting on the boat, vomiting so much, and after only a day's effort, he became a sick cat in bed. Lorist prepared a seasickness potion for him, and after taking it, he fell into a drowsy sleep.

On the night of August, when the sea breeze hits, it is still a bit cold. Lorist put on a coat and sat on the ground leaning against the bridge, looking at the starry night sky in silent contemplation.

Except for the watchman on the mast and the sailor on duty on the Flying Fish in Dawn, everyone fell asleep. The white sails on the three masts have been put away, only the slanted longitudinal sails of the bow and stern are still carrying the wind, and the Flying Fish, which is pushing the dawn, is gently floating on the calm sea...

A figure walked on the bridge, came to Lorester with heavy steps, sat down, and handed over a small barrel of fruit wine and a silver cup.

"Does it feel better?" Lorist asked.

The person here is Fatty Shi: "It's much better. After taking the medicine, I don't feel nauseated and don't want to vomit after taking the medicine. In addition to my head, I feel a little dizzy. It's really strange. I didn't get seasick when I was young. There are too many, now I want to sleep but can't sleep, so I came up to look for you."

I poured some fruit wine in the glass and had a drink with Fatty Shi. Lorist looked at the starry sky and said, "Fatty, I take this opportunity to go back to Moriente if I don’t want it. Old Jack said, with this You can reach Booty Bay within one month by the boat. Don’t you want to go back to Dawn Academy to see? Write a letter to your father telling him that you are promising now."

"Don't talk about it, when you give me a piece of territory to make me a nobleman, I will tell him and surprise him when he takes a sip of wine.

"Then you have to wait four years. If you haven't served the family for ten years, you won't be able to seal the territory. But I am only an earl now. I can only seal two viscounts and four barons at most, and I can't seal it in the original family territory. When I arrive at Hilovas Island, see if there are several territories. If I become the Great Duke of the North, then I can grant you a richer territory."

"Locke, I have an idea. If you really become the Grand Duke of the North, it is best not to canonize the North. There can be a manor castle of the Golden Knight in the North, but there should be no other lords. I think the entire North. Even as one belongs to the Norton family, that is the key to the family's continued inheritance for thousands of years. As long as the three cable bridges and ferry crossings leading to the outside world are blocked, the Northland will be self-contained, regardless of changes in the outside world. Whatever it looks like, our Norton family can stand in the north and sit and watch the turmoil. But now that Niujiaowan is available, a powerful fleet is needed to ensure peace in the family territory..."

"You are right, this is my idea. But we have to wait for the moment to be realized. Now our family still needs to continue to accumulate strength..."

The silver moonlight shining on the calm sea, a piece of silver gleaming. Dawn's Flying Fish floated slowly into the distance in the silver wave... (To be continued.)
