Chapter 184 Waiting for the Rabbit
Alwin and Milan were the only people in the captain’s cabin.
A nautical chart was spread out on the desk between the two.
The quality and graphics of the nautical blueprint are very new, and at a glance, it is known that it is a high-end product drawn recently. Countries, shores, islands, reefs, water depths, beacons, lighthouses, supply points, habitats for dangerous marine life, etc. are clearly marked on the silky-touch paper.
And this nautical chart covers an unexpectedly large range, including the entire “Tulip Alliance” offshore trade routes and more than a dozen commonly used ocean routes, including even Alwin’s most eye-catching traffic. Path to the new continent.
It was much broader and more detailed than the one that Alwin received from Fleet Command before he set off.
Alwin, as a qualified naval captain, of course knows the goods. This nautical chart is not a staple goods, and it may even belong to a special collection that Your Excellency Lieutenant General does not know where to get it.
Well, the most important thing is that while the value is priceless, the level of confidentiality must be very high
Milan is unaware of Alwin’s strange vision, and has already brought in the role of sea captain. , put all his attention on the nautical chart, swiped his finger on the chart each minding their own business and said:
“At the current speed of the ‘Conch’, we will be there in three days Shell Strait, after that, is the open sea area in a vague sense.
I do not recommend continuing to hunt and kill the big pirates who can traverse the open sea. In addition to too many uncontrollable risks, With our ‘Conch’ trifling a Level 6 ship, Celestial Phenomenon simply can’t adapt to the changeable climate of the open sea.
Unless a naval fleet is formed to perform its duties, a ship is reckless Going in, the fault tolerance rate is too low, as long as there is a little accident, we will be buried in the sea.”
The two people are planning the next itinerary around the nautical chart. Because it is a hunting mission for vicious pirates, where the danger is there, the choice of target and route is particularly important.
At this time, there is no so-called difference between captain and navigator, superior and inferior.
“Well, I agree with you. Although in the Navy Academy, I have also learned how to deal with the complex sea conditions in the open sea, but our main members are recruits after all, and our Level 6 ships directly Going to the open sea is irresponsible to everyone.
But even if you don’t go to the open sea, there are articles that can be done in the offshore area.
The ‘Beluga Harbor massacre’ has passed ten years For a few days, let’s think about the possible next moves of the pirates who have acquired a large amount of wealth”
Alwin actually had a comprehensive plan long before the departure, before Milan joined, and now The arrival of Milan also added an insurance to the smooth progress of the plan. At this time, naturally, he will no longer hide it from him.
“You mean a neutral port?!”
Milan instantly understood what Alwin meant.
Although pirates are chasing treasures in the bones, they are also insulated from treasures and are destined to be unable to return to the civilized world. They have no concept of saving money, and just having fun is the norm.
No matter how much wealth you have, you will be squandered in a short period of time, at least for the overwhelming majority among pirates.
However, although the ports of civilized countries are full of flowers, they can meet all their needs, but the risks are too great for pirates.
Fortunately, different countries and forces have different attitudes towards pirates. Except for the “Tulip Alliance”, which has received the grace of “Kingdom and Navigation Goddess” to kill pirates without mercy, the east coast of the Black Sea There are also many neutral ports of various sizes scattered, allowing pirates to dock.
There is the gold-selling cave of pirates and the Treasure Gathering Pot of neutral forces!
Of course, in addition to neutral ports, there are also a large number of private ports in unknown corners of the sea, but then no one can tell.
Seeing Milan’s expression, Alwin smiled slightly, the wise man really didn’t need to say much, then reached out and pointed lightly on the nautical chart. Milan followed his fingertips to look over, and his face was instantly enlightened: “Attilan, the largest neutral port city on the Eastern Sea!”
Awakened by Alwin’s words, with Milan’s wisdom, Understand Alwin’s original intention.
“It turns out that the route you chose at the beginning was purposeful!
According to this time, from ‘Beluga Port’ in the south of Ilia to ‘Attilan’ , our location is almost the only way for them to travel in a straight line, as long as they do not go around the open sea, or deliberately make a big circle, otherwise there is a high probability that they will pass through this Sea Territory.
Coupled with your seabird reconnaissance, they may slam into your muzzle within 50 kilometers without even noticing it. Even without me, the ‘Conch’ would be impossible to get this trip.
You are really insidious!”
Alwin deliberately slapped his face:
“What is insidious, is it wisdom?
A total of There are more than 200 pirate ships, all of which have made a fortune in Beluga Port. Even if there are not many people who choose to go to Attilan, it is absolutely impossible. Staying here is better than searching the sea aimlessly.
Coupled with your Divination Technique, we can predict when a pirate will pass by, which is much simpler than divination of the specific location of a specific pirate.
Think about it, those pirates are carrying A bag full of treasures, singing songs, thinking that I will be able to spend a lot of time and have a good time, and suddenly I was robbed by a horse bandit and suddenly bumped into our hands, isn’t it a big surprise?!”
“Although I only saw your bad taste, I agree to this plan.” Milan gave Alwin a strange look, always feeling that there was a hidden meaning behind it that he couldn’t understand.
But I didn’t care too much, and made my own suggestion instead.
“I just boarded the ship, and I don’t know much about the Conch, especially the means of your fellow.
Let’s sort out the strength of our side in advance, I When divination, do a comparison of strengths, and if we run into someone who cannot afford to offend, we might as well avoid it for a while.”

It is worth mentioning that the “Prophecy School” to which Milan belongs has abandoned the offensive spellcasting ability of the overwhelming majority , gained a more pure spirituality power, and turned to be quite successful in warning, detection, mind, and curse of doom.
Only two of them are the official Knights as extraordinary powers on the ship. Below them, the two peak apprentice Knights, Captain Gary and Captain Vader, are the most powerful. Others include captain officers and all soldiers who are either too old or not grown up and can only be used as regular battle strength.
In addition to the personnel on board, the most important measure of a warship’s battle strength is the number of onboard artillery pieces.
Bronze cannons or iron cannons are the embodiment of a country’s financial strength and technical level, and even many scholars in this era often measure their naval strength by the number of artillery pieces in a country.
It’s just that as a Level 6 ship “Conch”, there are only twenty ship-borne artillery pieces (which lasted until the end of the era of great seafaring, and the ship-borne artillery only had smoothbore guns).
The firepower can’t be called powerful, so in addition to the necessary armed force, we also need a little wisdom when facing pirates!
