Chapter 446: 451 Port Hesse
Chapter 446 451 Port Hesse
In an instant, the entire deck of the pirate ship fell into silence. Many pirates and coolies dared not speak, and looked at One-Eyed Gomez.
With a grunt , Gomez's throat moved, and a sudden sound came out of his throat. He forcefully twitched the corners of his mouth, showing a smile that was uglier than crying, and bowed his head: "That... everything is up to the general's orders."
Although he is also a legendary powerhouse, Gomez has been in the sea for so many years, and he knows who he should resist and when he should be resolute.
As for the other sailors and coolies on the ship, when Gomez bowed his head, he did not look down on the captain, but all secretly relieved. Si was stubborn, and they attacked first.
Although they are not the opponent of Captain Gomez even if they join forces, but with the big BOSS Green, they don't need to really kill Gomez, they just need to show their attitude with their actual actions. Otherwise, the terrifying behemoth in the sky can overturn their pirate ship with just one dive.
But when they looked up again, trying to find the huge, terrifying figure, the dracolich had long since disappeared.
The Port of Hesse is located in the outer sea between the Kingdom of Lorenzo and the Loen Federation. It is a movable city floating on the sea. It is a paradise for many pirates in the East China Sea. Here, no matter who they are, they can move freely and get supplies. , you can even buy warships directly at the shipyard, the only thing you need to pay is a sufficient amount of gold pounds.
Hesse Port is like a huge tumor growing in the depths of the East China Sea. By supporting pirates on the sea, looting merchant ships on the route, and then returning to Hesse Port to sell the stolen goods, the gold pounds obtained at the end will also be used to buy weapons through Hesse Port. Supplies or repairs ships…
In order to eliminate this tumor, even the mighty Condor Empire once dispatched a naval fleet and dispatched a natural disaster-level powerhouse, but finally returned.
It was this battle that established the reputation of Hesse Port, so that second-rate countries like the Kingdom of Lorenzo and the Loen Federation would no longer dare to talk about attacking Hesse Port.
The reason why Green went to Hesse Port this time was to investigate the disappearance of the three warships and the disappearance of more than ten members of the investigation team of the Special Bureau. If there is any place at sea with the best information, then this place must be Hesse Port, but to obtain accurate information, it also has to pay a lot of gold pounds.
In the evening, the sun was about to drop below sea level, and the cool sea breeze blew the White Seagull's flag and made a "puff" sound.
In the distance, the outline of a huge sea city appeared in the field of vision, and the setting sun painted the city with a golden edge, making it look a bit like an illusory mirage.
"Master General, there is Hesse Harbor." Gomez stood beside Green with a low eyebrow and pointed to the city emerging in the distance.
Green looked at the past and found that the scale of Hesse Harbor was larger than he imagined. It is said that the entire Hesse Harbor was built on the corpse of a huge sea beast. The port can move freely, and even when necessary, it can activate defensive magic to form a light film over the city, and then the entire city dives below the sea surface.
Gomez peeked at Green's expression and asked tentatively, "Sir General, we have arrived at Hesse Harbor, look... can we... can go?"
Green glanced at him from the corner of his eyes, and said lightly, "Where do you want to go? Isn't it bad to be my subordinate? Your strength is good. If you go to the special bureau, I can give you a colonel rank, how about it?"
The corner of Gomez's mouth twitched, and he knew that it was easy to ask God to send him away, so he reluctantly said: "Of course it's impossible to be able to serve the Lord, I'm afraid that our strength is low and it will ruin the important thing of the Lord, besides..."
Before Gomez could continue speaking, Green turned his head to look at him, and said coldly, "Are you still unwilling to say that?" An icy chill enveloped Gomez during his speech, causing him to shudder violently. , hurriedly said: "Don't dare, don't dare, my subordinates are willing to be loyal to the adults!"
At this moment, Gomez felt extremely bitter in his heart. He didn't know why he was so unlucky to meet such an unreasonable person, but the unfathomable strength of the other party made him really dare not act rashly. In the moment just now, when Green forced him to be loyal, he even became ruthless for a while, wanting to break the net, but the terrifying coercion and huge size of the dragon lich flashed in his mind, and he finally failed to summon the courage.
Green snorted and put his hand on the top of Gomez's head, and the death energy instantly enveloped him.
"Not good!" Gomez's face changed dramatically. Although he promised his allegiance just now, he didn't expect Green to actually use death infection to transform him into an undead creature. If only loyalty is enough, after all, there is still a chance in the future to transform into an undead creature, and he will never be able to get rid of the control of the person in front of him.
"Fight!" Gomez glared angrily, clenched his teeth sharply, and was about to burst out of psionic energy, breaking free from Green's grasp.
However, at this moment, he found that he could not move! Just behind him, I don't know when, a figure wearing a mage robe appeared, staring at him coldly and indifferently, it was the Lich Mage Frio.
Beside Frio, the floating cannon hummed in suspension, and the muzzle had begun to condense psionic energy.
In an instant, Gomez felt as if he had become a mouse being targeted by an old cat. The suppression of the Legendary Intermediate to the Primary made him unable to resist, as well as the terrifying floating cannon. Gomez had a hunch, As long as he dared to act rashly, the fire snake that spewed from the muzzle would instantly tear him to pieces.
"Damn it!" Gomez scolded secretly and relaxed. In the face of this situation, he could only admit it again, closed his eyes and let Green's undead energy penetrate into his body and slow him down. Slowly transform into a half-human, half-undead shadow creature.
After a while, Green withdrew his hand, and Gomez also regained his mobility. He immediately knelt down on one knee and said in a hoarse voice: "My subordinates see the great master!"
The many pirates of the White Seagull watched in amazement, most of them still didn't know what happened just now.
Green glanced at Gomez’s attributes with satisfaction: Shadow Captain Gomez, Level [lv7], Combat Strength [1900], Loyalty [65]…
"Take care of your crew, let's go to Hesse Port." Green said expressionlessly, looking at the outline of the sea city in the distance again.
In fact, Green did not intend to transform the pirate captain Gomez. His previous plan was to enter Hesse Port directly as the official identity of the Kingdom of Lorenzo. Although Hesse Harbor has a profound background, he once repelled a natural disaster-level strong The condor Empire fleet led by the leader, but Greene this time is only to investigate the missing warships of the Lorenzo Kingdom, and he came to Hesse Port only to collect information.
I believe that as long as he shows enough tyrannical strength, the East Sea overlord who controls Hesse Port, Deansost, should not be stingy with some intelligence help. In fact, this was also the idea that Silabel gave him before he came, because Deansost had some friendship with Grand Duke Mora. If there was no conflict of fundamental interests, the other party should be very happy to see Grand Duke Mora's face. Send a personal favor.
However, not long ago, there was a new situation that prompted Greene to change his mind and decide to hide his identity and enter the port of Hesse.
Just half an hour ago, another avatar of Green, in the small town where Amberland was located, in the basement of the warehouse office building, another corpse appeared.
This time, it was a young sailor in a tattered sailor suit. There were no obvious wounds on his body, but his expression was twisted and ferocious. He should have suffered great pain before dying.
At first, Green had not linked this person to the incident of the loss of contact with the naval warship. After all, the two sides were more than 2,000 kilometers away. It was hard to imagine that the missing crew members would appear in a basement thousands of miles away.
Until Green and Jessica checked the body, they found the crew member's certificate, which clearly stated the affiliation - the Second Fleet of the Royal Navy of Lorenzo, the Second Patrol Brigade, and the frigate Pherondor!
Green's heart suddenly froze, and he immediately contacted the people who stayed in Chester Harbor to compare the list of members of the missing ship.
Sure enough! This ensign named Hildovar was one of the crew members who went missing with the Ferondo this time.
Green did not expect such a situation, but the sudden appearance of the crew's corpses also made him the first time to link the sudden disappearance of the barbarian tribe with the loss of contact with the three Lorenzo Kingdom naval warships 2,000 kilometers away. events, is this just a coincidence? Or a bigger conspiracy?
In the face of a more complicated situation, Green changed his previous thoughts and decided to hide his identity and enter Hesse Port to be safe.
In this way, Gomez and his pirate group became the best cover.
Really close to the port of Hesse, the city that can move on the sea looks more majestic than it looks from a distance.
The White Seagull entered the port, paid the berthing fee of twenty gold pounds, and then slowly entered the berth under the guidance of the tugboat.
There are many pirate ships like the White Seagull here, and there are also some smaller but faster yachts. Those who dare to come here by yacht are extraordinary people who have absolute confidence in their own strength.
After the White Seagull came to a standstill, Green and Gomez stepped off the boat along the springboard.
At this time, Green had taken off his military uniform and put on an ordinary sailor suit. He could immediately experience the prosperity here when he stepped on Hesse Harbor.
Leaving the wharf is a commercial street, where almost everything is sold, from local specialty snacks to powerful enchanted cannons, the entire commercial street extends out and occupies several blocks.
