Chapter 7 Armand's Calculation (Seeking Recommendations and Collection)
After reading this series of prompts, Fang Senyan felt a bit of relief in his heart. Because if he hadn't had this opportunity, he might have ended up mixed up on the lowest level of pirate ships. Obviously, having a higher starting point on this Bell and Goblet ship would make it easier to increase his reputation. This would give him a great advantage.
Armand clearly had high prestige among the crew, and even the unruly Shahr defaulted to his arbitrariness. Scarface Henry walked over with a smile, patted Fang Senyan on the shoulder, and warmly led him into the cabin, pointing to a room and telling Fang Senyan that he would live here from now on.
Strictly speaking, pirate ships at this time were mostly based on plundering, so they didn't need to maximize the cargo space like merchant ships and freighters, squeezing the living space of the crew to the minimum. Therefore, if only the living conditions were considered, they were quite satisfactory. Of course, this cabin was not bright and clean, but there was no bad smell. Although the bedding and sheets on the bed were old and had many patches, they had just been washed, clean and tidy, and there was a fresh smell of sunshine.
A pirate stood beside him, cautiously standing with his hands down, occasionally timidly raising his eyes to look over. Presumably, this guy named Ben. Morgan was Fang Senyan's roommate. This was the benefit of Fang Senyan's fierce start. Since this Ben. Morgan could be among the pirates, he was naturally not a kind person. However, the two guys who were killed by Fang Senyan were originally known for their ferocity and irritability on the pirate ship. Not to mention Vali Valika, even Gert was someone Ben. Morgan couldn't afford to provoke. Naturally, he had to be respectful to this "butcher from the mysterious East" at this time.
Fang Senyan was too lazy to pay attention to this Ben. Morgan guy. He lay down on his bunk. His left hand was the most seriously injured in today's battle. The cobalt-steel alloy exoskeleton was, after all, a weapon, mainly used for attacking rather than defending. Fang Senyan used it to block Vali Valika's head-on slash, and naturally it was impossible to completely block the damage. Therefore, the injury to his left hand was not considered serious, but it would take at least some time to heal. As he entered a state of rest, the frightened Ben. Morgan didn't dare to return to the room, but secretly slipped to the deck.
After settling Fang Senyan, the first mate Scarface Henry went directly to the captain's room. Armand was staring at a nautical chart, his hands clasped behind his back. Even when there was no one around, he held his waist straight, and with the cloak fluttering behind him, he had a kind of military elegance and fortitude. Although Scarface Henry's footsteps were very light, Armand responded immediately:
"You're here?"
Even though they were alone, Scarface Henry said respectfully:
"Yes, I have settled our new Eastern partner."
Armand put his hand on the rapier at his waist, pondered for a while, and then slowly said:
"Today our new companion has made quite a splash, what do you think?"
The corner of Scarface Henry's mouth twitched, and this expression was cleverly hidden in his fluffy beard:
"So-so."
After speaking, he seemed to have more to say, smacked his lips twice at these two words, and added:
"Very so-so."
Armand said calmly:
"Tell me your reasons."
Scarface Henry said in a loud voice:
"His arm strength is indeed very strong, but he should not have received any systematic training. Facing the enemy's defense, he seemed a little helpless and had no way to deal with it, so that in the battle, he often had to create flaws by hard-hitting the enemy's attack. If it wasn't for the two idiots, Vali Valika and the chaotic Gert, being too fragile, as long as they could hold on for a while to figure out his routine, they would naturally be able to be invincible. If you want to deal with him, let Mad bring two people with two-handed axes or other weapons that are difficult to resist."
Armand nodded:
"Well, not bad, your eyesight has improved again. Vali Valika has been too close to Shahr recently, and it's not bad to get rid of him by this. It's a good thing that this Easterner's combat ability is lower. If we can get relevant clues to the eastern routes from this Easterner, it will be a surprise. And I suspect that he also has the ability to lead a fleet to travel thousands of miles to the Caribbean, so for now, we should focus on observation and inducement, and there is no need to be rough unless it is absolutely necessary. The key now is to confirm that this guy is not lying."
Scarface Henry also showed a shrewdness that was completely different from his rough appearance. He grinned and laughed, revealing his yellow teeth and said:
"I know what to do. I swear in the name of the old whore, the Queen of England, if this guy tells half a lie, I will be able to expose his old secrets in less than half a month. The lovely sharks in the Caribbean must have been longing for a hearty meal."
………………
Of course, Fang Senyan didn't know that there were so many behind-the-scenes tidbits about himself. By the time he had rested, it was already evening. He went out to the deck to get some air, then went to the kitchen to eat something casually, and then returned to the cabin. First, he picked up Ben. Morgan, who was curled up in the quilt and snoring loudly, and threw him out. Then he closed the door and slept peacefully in the cabin.
When he woke up, he realized that the poor pirate was shivering at the door with a pale face from the cold, looking over with a fearful and pleading look, which inexplicably reminded him of the moment when Ouyang Feng with sausage lips in "East is Red" seriously asked people if he was handsome.
Fang Senyan looked at this scene, wanting to say something, but found it difficult to organize his words. In the end, he strode out, then turned his head and said:
"Stuff a walnut in your mouth tonight."
Ben. Morgan was pardoned and immediately ran into the cabin, looking like he had suffered a lot last night and was rushing back to catch up on sleep.
Obviously, Fang Senyan was not the only contractor to experience this world, so all ships should not leave the port before the 24-hour deadline, which also means that Fang Senyan will have an extra day of free time. It was still about eight o'clock in the morning. Most of the pirates should have gone to the bar to revel last night, so the deck was empty and there was no one. Fang Senyan walked around this Bell and Goblet, and suddenly received a prompt from the Nightmare Mark:
"You have obtained the basic information of this ship."
"Bell and Goblet"
"Length 40 meters, width 8.4 meters"
"Displacement 400 tons"
"Special ability: Windward (active): When activated, the speed of the ship will be greatly increased when sailing against the wind, lasting for one hour."
"Other information is unknown."
After collecting the information of the ship, Fang Senyan couldn't help but become curious about the four legendary ships in the port, and he also had insight ability, so two hours later, the information of the four legendary ships required by the mission was also collected by Fang Senyan from a distance.
"Black Pearl"
"Length 60 meters, width 7.5 meters"
"Displacement 600 tons"
"Legendary ability: Tailwind (passive): Makes the maximum sailing speed of the ship permanently fixed and will not be affected by any factors - as long as the Black Pearl exists for one day, no one can take away the glorious title of King of Caribbean Speed!"
"Legendary ability: Favor of the Night (passive): When night falls, the probability of the Black Pearl and its crew being discovered by the enemy is reduced by 80% - darkness is our eternal ally."
"Other information is unknown."
"Flying Dutchman (this ship has not yet been cursed)"
"Length 70 meters, width 15 meters"
"Displacement 800 tons"
"Legendary ability: Dive (active): This is a giant ship blessed by dark magic. It can quickly close the cabin and dive into the deep sea. When it resurfaces, it will restore 30% of the hull's durability - the sea is the best repairer."
"Legendary ability: Triple Shot (active): Unleash the power of the ship's artillery and inflict heavy damage on the enemy's fleet with a fierce barrage - taste the taste of gunpowder and steel! Haha."
"Other information is unknown"
Anne Queen Revenge
Length 65 meters, width 8 meters
Displacement 600 tons
Legendary ability: Sea Monster Cable (this ability is not activated): Blackbeard can use the magical sword to control the ropes on the ship, making them wrap around nearby targets like poisonous snakes - never engage in boarding battles with Blackbeard! If you want to win.
Legendary ability: Prometheus' Boiling (active): Spray a terrifying flame forward, burning all life and sacrificing it to the great Prometheus - even if you are on the sea, you must be wary of the threat of flames.
Effort (some translations are Victory)
British flagship (Captain Beckett)
Length 65 meters, width 10 meters
Displacement 900 tons
Legendary ability: Fearless (passive): It is said that when Effort (some translations are Victory) was built, the souls of British Royal Navy sailors were attached to it, so it can be equipped with twice the number of heavy artillery without any negative effects.
Legendary ability: Excite (active): When encountering an emergency, the heroic souls of the navy on Effort (some translations are Victory) will help the ship, allowing it to increase its sailing speed to the maximum in a short time. This is also the only ship in the Caribbean that can bite the Black Pearl in a short time
I said before that this story will complete the plot of an important figure in Pirates of the Caribbean, so I made an author reward: everyone guess which person's main important plot will be completed in Pirates of the Caribbean? The final reward is 100 diamonds, haha.
The address of the author's reward is in the upper left corner above the book review area.
Or friends can directly discuss in the book review, although you can't get diamonds but the essence can't escape.
