Extraordinary Voyage Chapter 38: Captain
The so-called “ocean treasure” is not a human creation!
is a kind of magical treasure that is naturally produced by specific items affected by the mysterious factors of this world and bred under special conditions.
The reasons for their occurrence are various and strange, and they may be based on special geographical environment, large-scale historical events with far-reaching influence, and even the mass extinction of life.
The body shape is also diverse, it may be a sculpture like the “Sunken Shipwreck Song”, or it may be a shell, a stone, a pocket watch, etc. that may exist in the real world.
But they have the only thing in common, that is, they are extremely difficult to destroy.
Each kind of “ocean secret treasure” has its own magical ability, powerful and mysterious.
Since the name carries the prefix “ocean”, most of these abilities are naturally related to the ocean, especially in the sea. These secret treasures will bring unparalleled assistance to the ships that hold them. It is everyone in the sea who is desperate. The object of chasing.
“The Secret Treasure of the Sea” can almost be equated with power and wealth!
Of course, not all ocean treasures are like the “Sunken Shipwreck Song” in which an evil spirit with ulterior motives lives. It deliberately reveals the secret treasure’s information and has a unique and extraordinary path to induce others to use its evil power to achieve ulterior goals.
Most ocean treasures belong to the type of treasures that are self-obscure, and it is impossible to tell if it is not a professional who holds it in his hand.
I have to say that this time my uncle and nephew captured the head of the one-eyed Becky, and they also picked up a sea secret treasure to come back, which is really great luck!
Although it is hostile to the order side, as long as two people do not want to defect to the kingdom and become pirates, they cannot use it as a navy, which is a pity. However, there is no problem at all to exchange benefits with aristocrats with special needs.
“Just deal with the evil spirits hidden in it, and you should be able to trade a good price.” Geer concluded.
As for exchanging a secret treasure that they can use with others, neither of them has any hope. The opportunity is too slim to meet and cannot be sought, it is better to turn it into visible and tangible wealth and resources that can be used now.
“By the way, Uncle Geer, what do you plan to do with the extraordinary path above?” At the end of hearing, Ivan didn’t even see Geer mentioning the extraordinary path of “Sunken Ship Mourning”, and asked strangely.
Mentioned the extraordinary power related to his own future, Geer suddenly became a lot more serious, and asked Aiwen in return: “Aven, there are many extraordinary paths in this world, why do you think it is the path of the knight that dominates the human world? What?”
Although he has a vision that transcends the times, Ivan has never considered this issue. After thinking about it in conjunction with the teaching of Grandpa Leo when he was a child, he tentatively said: “Is it because of stability?”
“That’s right! But not comprehensive. Stability is only one aspect of it.”
”In fact, both internal and external factors determine the extraordinary status quo of the civilized world.
The internal factor is that although the path of the Cavaliers is extraordinary, the extraordinary powers involved are only for the relatively pure basics of the human body, and the risk of losing control is the smallest and the most stable. Even if it eventually loses control, it won’t be too destructive. “
Gelton paused to give Ivan time to digest, and continued to explain:
”The external factors are due to the credit of the supernatural power of the highest level of the countries in our continent, the “Church of True God”.
Although the knights are powerful, our path has been firmly fixed, like a sword in the hands of humans. Even the titled knights of the extraordinary rank 4 are only divine soldiers, and it is impossible to threaten their status. “
In his words, Geer, who was an officer of the old kingdom, expressed a slight dissatisfaction with the Holy See. If this had to be a major event in public, Ivan would have not heard it.
” And for those extraordinary paths that are easy to lose control and cause mass casualties, or extraordinary paths that are extremely creative and promising, including the “Black Iron Cross Church” that rules our Tulip Alliance, and the “Church of Dawn in the Sark Empire” “Including the “eternal fire” of the kingdom of the sea overlord Hilius, the attitude of the Seven Churches of True God is to suppress and eliminate!”
”Most unpopular transcendent paths like the shipwreck mourners are flawed, and because of the reasons I said before, the more you leave the civilized world, the more such maverick transcendents. The path is not. Complete, or have various fatal flaws, the possibility of losing control is also scary.”
This knowledge is impossible to record in any book, it is entirely Geer’s own experience summary.
As an extraordinary captain who has been in the ocean for many years, Geer used his profound knowledge accumulation and unique perspective to instantly help Ivan suddenly start.
can’t help but be thankful that I have such a guide.
“Keep the cheaters, kid!” Finally, Geer patted Irvine on the shoulder and stuffed the repacked sculpture into his hand.
“Take it back to your room and guard it all the way back to the voyage. In the next few years, it will depend on whether we eat dry or thinner.”
Then the two returned to the main deck and transferred a part of the crew to try their best to repair the severely damaged pirate ship, barely allowing it to start again.
Silver Wing was towed in front with a cable, and slowly returned to the initial battlefield of Rocky Island.
”Silver Wing is back!”
“We are saved!”
At this time, the burning wreckage of the Warrior had already sunk to the bottom of the sea. Several lifeboats floating on the sea were sparsely seated with some dejected ex-Warrior crew members. They reappeared only when the Silver Wing came back. angry.
After they took them on board, the people learned that after they abandoned the ship, the officers on the original Warrior had been focused on fire and extinguished, including the captain. They were on board the Silver Wing. The captain who ate and drank was the highest-ranking officer among the survivors.
Geer comforted them with a few words, after all, their early engagement with the pirates also caused them a huge consumption, and it was an assist for the Silver Wing.
But the loot is definitely not to worry about.
……
In a blink of an eye, it was the third day after returning to Gabriel.
After the brief hustle and bustle of returning from the mission, everything seems to be back on track.
In the past few days, Geer, carrying the aura of honor for killing the crazy pirate “One-eyed Bache”, frequently walked with the nobles and merchants of Gabriel, seemingly normal communication and wanted to expand his contacts. But in fact, only Ivan himself knows that this is Uncle Geer looking for a home for their “trophies.”
Aiwen is temporarily unable to get involved, but he also has an important task of his own.
Third Fleet Station.
In the resident corridor, large oil paintings are hung on the blue-tone walls. There are landscapes, people, and war scenes. Each painting represents an important moment of the Third Fleet. Said this is a veritable wall of merits.
Walking here is like walking in the corridor of history, and a heavy sense of honor of being a part of it emerges spontaneously. Even a guy like Aiwen who lacks a sense of identity with another world can’t help but relax.
In front of a room with brass signs, Ivan stopped, rearranged his navy uniform, and knocked on the door lightly.
“Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!”
The intensity is neither light nor heavy, and the three tones are just right. This is derived from previous career experience.
“Please come in!” A calm old man’s voice sounded.
opened the door and walked in. In the simply decorated room, curtains were drawn to block the sunlight from outside, but a gas lamp was lit, creating a quiet and solemn atmosphere.
Three old men in school uniforms sat behind a long table, covered with a green velvet tablecloth, and an open notepad was placed in front of each of them.
Aiwen walked to the empty chair in front of the long table, and stood up and saluted: “Hello three sirs!’Silver Wing’ warrant officer Irvine Galliot is here to take the test!”
“Don’t be nervous young man! Please sit down.” The officer with all white hair and monocles in the middle was very kind and smiled and told him to sit down, indicating that the assessment is now beginning.
”Before the official start, I hope you can take this assessment seriously.
Although your achievements have fully met the standard, it is very difficult for a young man who has only been in the army for a few months. However, every officer bears the honor and life of all his subordinates in a critical moment. If the assessment fails to satisfy us, we cannot give you this responsibility! “
The officer with short gray hair sitting on the right side of the long table said with a serious face.
“I fully understand! Please start!” Ivan motioned to himself to understand, and was not frightened by him. I guess that this is probably also part of the assessment, to prevent some people from thinking that it is a casual, perfunctory matter, and ultimately making it difficult for everyone to end.
”Please list the names of the three types of rigging in the battleship and their functions.”
“The control of the sail string requires halyards, slings, swivel cables…”
”In the main battle line battle, if your battleship is set on fire by the enemy, will you order the anchor to evade?”
”…”
”The wind speed is 30-40 knots, and the wave height is at least one meter. Can the warship be driven with full sails at this time?”
“No, at this time, the top sail of the main mast can only be lifted “half sail” to raise the bow of the ship, reduce the effect of burying the bow, and prevent the ship from overturning!” From the beginning to the end, regardless of the three examiners How to ask questions~IndoMTL.com~Iwen is responsive and unhurried.
After learning about the test format from Gehr, he began to prepare. The extremely difficult assessment for many reserve officers was a piece of cake for Aiwen, who had come from the sea of books in his previous life.
After all, for any alternate officer who can get to this point, he has already stayed on the battleship long enough, and there is no problem with his practical ability. This is how experienced veteran officers are used. Questions, the alternate officer’s answer will be assessed.
The assessment time lasted for twenty minutes. Every examiner asked a few questions, which were broad but not tricky.
After Aiwen finished answering the last question, several examiners looked at each other and gave a unified opinion. A stamp passed by the representative was stamped on Aiwen’s file.
“Congratulations, Irving of the Silver Wing, you will be a Captain of the Navy from today!” The kind elder in the middle announced the news on behalf of the three examiners.
“Thank you three examiners! This is my honor!”
With a smile on his face, Ivan got up to shake hands and hugs with each examiner. After saluting again, he slowly retreated to the door before turning away.
“I like this young man, and hope to see more and more such energetic and well-mannered young people in the Navy in the future.”
“Hehe, people who have been in civil service for a lifetime, and are about to retire, still **** so much…”
“You control me…?”
Through the first turning point of his military career, he has truly completed the leap from alternate officer to official officer. Ivan only feels broad-minded, and even the faint chatter of the old officers has become extremely cute. .
smiled slightly, the corridor was still the corridor engraved with history, but his footsteps unexpectedly brisk.
