Extraordinary Sailing

Subsequently, under the command of first officer Perry, the sailors performed their duties and began to clean up the battlefield.

The damage to the Silver Wing after being attacked by the sea monster was not serious. After simple repairs, the body of the impacted conch was dragged behind the ship with a net bag, and normal sailing resumed.

Creatures like sea monsters are born with extraordinary materials, and no one can easily discard them when conditions permit. Fortunately, it is in the near sea. If it is caught in the far sea, only a part of the core materials can be harvested, and the value is far from comparable to that of a whole corpse.

Although the loss of the "Silver Wing" was not small, the corpse of this sea monster alone was worth the price of the ticket, whether it was paying the pensions of the war dead or the rewards of the survivors, it was more than enough.

With such a big guy, it is difficult to continue the rest of the cruising work, and the existence of sea monsters is not convenient to be exposed to ordinary people, so Geer simply ordered to return directly.

clatter

As the sea monster died, the fog on the sea gradually dissipated. The Silver Wing drew a beautiful arc on the sea, turned to another fast route with fewer ships, and returned at full speed.

deck.

"Let's go, Warrant Officer Aiwen, let's take a rest first. During lunch, I will let you taste the specialties on our ship. It is a rare delicacy." First officer Perry patted Aiwen on the shoulder, mysteriously said.

The friendship of fighting side by side and the obviously different attitude of Captain Geer, the first officer, who has always been known for his strictness and inhumanity, became uncharacteristically friendly to Ivan.

"Really? Looking forward to it!" There is an opportunity to better integrate into the group, and Ivan will naturally not miss it.

really.

Then at the celebration banquet prepared for the victory of the war, in addition to the high-quality ingredients originally stored on the ship and fresh sea fish caught on the spot, the chef also presented each table with a mysterious dinner plate covered by a cover.

This is the special delicacy that is rarely seen in other places in the mouth of the chief mate.

Ivan curiously opened the metal cover in front of him.

A large piece of snow-white tender meat is soaked in ginger juice and served with a few slices of green vegetables. The strange aroma permeates, making people's mouth full of saliva and appetite.

It turned out to be a "sea monster meal" made with sea monster tentacles. It was not only delicious and crispy, but also had the magical effect of slightly improving physical fitness.

The old crew members are nothing. They used to be able to enjoy it once or twice a year when they were on the fourth-level ship. Even if they were on the fifth-level ship, they were much better than others. The two of Gary had a great time.

Feeling the slight heat flow in the body.

Aiwen even imagined that if he could eat this kind of meat every day, he should be able to reach the limit of a mortal soon, right?

After thinking about it, I knew that this was impossible. The sea monster is the ruler of the sea, and it is a top-level predator. It is understandable to encounter a desperate battle by accident, but if it is dedicated to chasing and hunting, it really feels that its life is too long.

However, if you only eat one or two meals, the sea monster meat is no more effective than the corresponding auxiliary medicine. It is better than nothing, and it can only satisfy the taste buds.

Even so, Aiwen solved his share as quickly as possible, leaving no residue.

Sitting at the exclusive wine table for the officers, while they were all slightly drunk, they began to chat with great interest.

Aiwen curiously asked about the experience of the old officers in the deep sea in the past.

Everyone saw Aiwen's performance today. He cut off three tentacles of the sea monster by himself and saved at least a dozen crew members. Regardless of whether they have a special relationship with the captain or not, they have already been recognized by most of them.

"If you ask me, you are asking the right person. I was the first person to wander the sea with Your Excellency the Captain." The navigator Trieus drank a lot, and his drunken eyes were already a little blurred.

"Young man, you have to remember that there are many giant beasts in the sea, but not all of them have hatred for humans.

The coexistence of carapace and tentacles is the characteristic of the sea monsters under the command of the Mother of Sea Monsters. It is an instinct for them to hate humans, and there is no way to change it, but there are still many other types of wild sea monsters.

For these wild sea monsters, human beings are no different from other creatures. If there is a means, they can even be tamed like hounds. "

Speaking of this, Trieus cut a large piece of baishengsheng sea monster meat, dipped it in the soup, stuffed it into his mouth, took a gulp of rum and burped hard.

"Moreover, the brave navigator will tell you from his experience that powerful sea monsters have one thing in common, that is, they are all delicious!" Seeing Trieus's indulging in wine and meat, bosun Chris joked him.

The people at the table burst out laughing instantly.

"It's better for us to drive a fourth-level warship in the open sea. This small sea monster can be sent to the bottom of the sea with only one salvo. How can you need the captain himself to take action?"

The gunner took a sip of the amber rum, feeling a little emotional.

"If you want me to say, when we can also enslave a large wild sea monster, our life will be tsk tsk tsk at that time." The steering officer also came to join in the fun, it seems that the boat has been driven enough, and I thought about a sea monster knight addiction.

"Dream! You don't need anything else, it's enough to compete for a quasi-legendary battleship with such a large sea monster!"

A group of people are booing and laughing at the impracticality of the steering officer.

Different from small species such as Shock Conch, which can be killed by a single person with a special javelin, each large species of sea monster has the ability to destroy a battleship by itself (without a powerful superhuman on board).

Even decades ago, the kingdom of Cyrus, the overlord of the kingdom of sea power, made a bold statement when sending the battleship, a large killer, into the sea for the first time: "There is only one other battleship in this world that can resist a battleship. And large sea monsters!"

Large sea monsters are terrifying monsters that are at least longer than a first-class battleship. With the power of such monsters, combined with human command, the combat power displayed cannot simply be described as one plus one greater than two.

Although it can't reach the level of the "legendary warship" that is used by sea power countries to suppress the country, it is still no problem to surpass the first-level warship and reach the quasi-legendary level.

This means that the combination of humans and large sea monsters is enough to crush more than 90% of the human ships on the sea, which is terrifying

Aiwen didn't interrupt, he ate all kinds of delicacies in Haisai, trying his best to satisfy his exaggerated appetite because of his knight practice, and listened attentively to the conversations of the officers.

In addition to some common sense related to sea monsters, he gradually gained a certain understanding of the strength of the officers on board.

The strength of individuals above the sea is small, but it does not include the extraordinary of the peak level. Even in terms of the inauguration regulations of the Phalatis Kingdom, every battleship captain should be at least an extraordinary knight!

This is also the final force guarantee for warships to defeat harsh natural environments and deep-sea monsters.

The extraordinary captain is paired with a varying number of trainee knights (corresponding to captain officers) and a large number of ordinary sailors to assist, with the help of the ship-borne artillery and various weapons on the battleship, together form the overall combat effectiveness of a battleship.

The officers here are naturally no exception. They are all qualified to practice the truly extraordinary swordsmanship "Phalatis Saber Technique", but whether because of age, aptitude or ambition, they can truly surpass ordinary people and reach a certain level There are not many people.

After all, at their age, they are still in the position of captain. Most of them have already reached the pinnacle of their official careers, and they have long since given up their extraordinary path, often pinning their hopes on the next generation.

Among them, as the captain, Uncle Geer is a well-deserved military force, a powerful existence at the peak of the official knight. Moreover, the Navy Ministry has regulations. If an officer of the combat faction wants to be promoted to a school-level officer, he must have the rank of an official knight, except for civilian positions.

First officer Perry is one of them. Although he has not yet reached the official knight rank, his level should not be too low. The other is Chris, the boatswain who leads the stormtroopers as the main force in the gang battle. Ivan feels that his physical fitness is stronger than Gary, but he should not be as good as himself.

But in terms of development potential, both of them are far behind.

The first mate Perry is over thirty years old, and his physical fitness is mostly obtained through the years. It is almost impossible to advance to a formal knight.

Chris, the boatswain, is in a slightly better situation, but if he can't try to break through within two years, he may never have another chance in the future.

This kind of qualification is far inferior to that of Ivan, not to mention Gary.

Theoretically, as a member of a former Tier 4 battleship, the ability of a captain officer is not as good as this.

From their chat, Aiwen unexpectedly learned that there was actually another knight-class presence on the fourth-tier ship, and this is where the confidence of the crew of the fourth-tier ship lies. It's just that everyone kept secret about this former colleague, and they didn't know whether he was sacrificed or transferred.

Talking lightly, pondering for a moment, Ai Wen didn't ask any more questions.

"Come on, keep drinking!"

"Warrant Officer Aiwen, welcome to our Silver Wing."

"With the skill of Warrant Officer Aiwen, he will be the new military force on the Silver Wing in the future."

A celebration banquet allowed Aiwen to fully integrate into this new group.

The speed of returning was much faster than when it was on patrol, but the destination of the Silver Wing was not Gabrad's military port, but a hidden island outside the port that was not on the normal route.

After handing over the body of the shock conch to the navy stationed on the island, the officers and crew on the Silver Wing all received a generous amount of merit and bonuses. In the future, this will be the voucher for advancing military rank, exchanging training methods and various cultivation resources.

With Aiwen's outstanding performance, his share is naturally indispensable.

Aiwen estimated that as long as he did it again, he would be able to reach the standard of becoming a full-time member without having to suffer through the years, and become a captain with the same military rank as the bosun and first mate.

After returning to the naval port and reporting the sea monster incident, the Silver Wing received an extra reward, and the crew got another three days of vacation a week after docking last time.

After a thrilling sea monster battle, the crew couldn't wait to go to the bustling Gabrield to spend time and drink to relax.

Ivan frowned secretly, because Uncle Geer was called away by the Third Fleet Command alone. He felt that the sea monster breaking into the sea and attacking merchant ships was not so simple, and there might be something hidden behind it.

But now it's not his turn to worry about these things, but another small matter is imminent.

Only those who have drifted on the sea for a long time can appreciate the beauty of stepping on the ground, don't worry about being overturned by the bed board when sleeping, don't worry about the ink bottle falling over at any time, don't worry

Maybe I will get used to this kind of sea life in the future, but it is obvious that the thick land is more attractive now. It would be even better if there is a large salad with various seasonal fruits and vegetables to satisfy my vegetable-craving stomach.

In view of the fact that he will spend a long time in Gabred, Aiwen feels that it is necessary to solve the problem of his accommodation on the shore. Can't you go to sleep in a hotel every time you dock?

Renting a house as his residence on shore for a long time to come has become Ivan's primary goal.

Called Gary together, and after the two got off the Silver Wing, they wandered around Gabrad. Only at this time did he realize that he had been in Gabrad for several months, and he hadn't had the opportunity to visit the city yet.

"Come and take a look, the special fruit brought back from the Southern Continent!"

"See, how well this fine flowered cloth suits you, fair girl!"

"I'm selling glass mirrors. I sell a glass mirror made of a silver bull in the capital. I only sell ninety copper fuls, only ninety!"

It is indeed a well-known commercial distribution center, whether it is from the civilized world or remote colonies, as long as you can imagine commodities, you can buy them here.

In addition to bulk trade, large and small bazaars are also particularly prosperous because of the abundant flow of people. Although fruits, vegetables, accessories, clothing, etc. have the shortcomings common to this era and are slightly messy, they are full of life.

Let the guy who is used to the monotonous scenery of the sea feel refreshed.

"Gary, what kind of house do you think we should find?"

"Eh, cheap?"

"Cough cough cough" Ivan was speechless for a while, knowing that this guy had no reliable suggestions.

"The rent is not a problem, just leave it to me." Ivan also understands the situation in Gary's family. There are many brothers and sisters. He probably wants to save his salary and send it home to subsidize the family.

Aiwen himself is not short of money now, the spoils of capturing the Blood Anchor and the two thousand gold ticket for disposing of the ship are still in his pocket.

The two thousand gold ticket is considered a huge sum of money no matter where it is placed.

With the development of commerce and trade, housing agencies are naturally indispensable. After finding an agency that looked pleasing to the eye, the two of them followed a young clerk to start a half-day tour of Gabrad.

The unscrupulous businessmen in another world have not yet extended their claws to the real estate field, and there is no real estate speculation. Even in a relatively prosperous seaport city like Gabrad, housing prices are not very expensive, and renting a house is naturally cheaper.

It doesn't matter if the location is good or bad, because you spend most of your time on the boat and don't have to worry about commuting every morning.

From high-end apartments in the bustling area to luxury villas in the suburbs, to ordinary houses in the civilian area, he finally turned around more than half of the city, visited almost all of Gabrad, and finally found a satisfactory place near the sea.

"That's right, it's here!"
