Chapter 277 Pretend to Be X for a While......

The process of buying the island went smoothly.

There is no such thing as Fangzheng being blocked by the rich second generation when he pays the money, saying that this is what I fell in love with first, and then he took the initiative to provoke and seek death. Will buy this kind of island, presumably must be a lame brain.

But to Fang Zheng's surprise, although these islands are dead islands, their prices are not low. It seems that people in the main world also know the economic value of exclusive areas. Therefore, these islands have spent almost all of Fangzheng's income from fertilizers and greenhouses. Now Fangzheng finally understands why no one comes to this counter. Not only are these dead islands expensive, but they are not located well. Well, it's not liveable yet. Even if the cultists wanted to set up a stall on it to summon their masters, they might not even be able to set up a summoning formation. Anyone who would buy such things must be out of their minds.

Hmm...Fangzheng is not counted.

When signing the purchase agreement, Fangzheng's expected exposure of his identity did not happen. Maybe the old man was old and dim, or maybe the temple didn't publicize this matter, so Fangzheng got a Ownership of the five small islands.

But for Fangzheng, the troublesome things are yet to come.

The sky was clear and cloudless.

Fangzheng stood on the deck, staring at the endless sea in front of him, he couldn't help but sighed. It was really too much trouble for him along the way.

The area where the five small islands are located is called the "Mist Sea". It is rumored that there will be thick fog every night, making ships lose their way in it. Many experienced explorers and fleets disappeared in the mist, and according to those who managed to escape, what was hidden in the mist was a terrifying monster bigger than a hill. It can even swallow a battleship in one gulp!

Because of such rumors, Fangzheng searched all over the docks, but couldn't find the captain who was willing to take them out to the misty sea. It wasn't until the unbelieving Fangzheng tripled the reward, that there must be a brave man under the heavy reward, and under the temptation of the heavy money, finally someone was willing to accept Fangzheng's commission and take them to the Misty Sea.

It's really cool for a while, purse crematorium.

It's just that... this ship is really too old.

Fangzheng turned his head and looked at the dilapidated but still intact deck of the "Black Raven" in front of him. The sailors were chanting and hoisting their sails—thanks to the development of the magic civilization, the ships in the main world no longer rely solely on wind power. At the same time, they can also use magic engines to Drive the ship to sail.

It's just that the mana engine that drives this ship is not good because it has been around for too long, but it is enough for such a ship.

"Hell, you bloody slobs, hoist the sails for me!"

Captain Fox, smoking a pipe, swayed onto the deck in his overcoat. This is a man who has worked hard at sea all year round. His strong and burly figure and his sun-tanned skin are the best proofs. Fox reached out and stroked his beard that could be used as a bird's nest, and then he looked at Fang Zheng and showed a flattering smile.

"Oh, hello, my dear sir."

"Hello, Captain Fox."

Looking at the captain in front of him, Fangzheng seemed very calm. Fox's reputation on the pier was not very good, but it wasn't too bad either. But Fangzheng doesn't care, sailing on the sea, few people are clean. As long as they don't have any bad thoughts about themselves and others, at least so far, this captain is still very responsible.

"How long will it take us to reach the Misty Sea?"

"The weather has been good in the past few days, bless the sea, I think we may reach the misty sea earlier than scheduled."

Hearing Fang Zheng's question, Captain Fox tapped the pipe in his hand before answering with a smile on his face.

"To be honest, sir, the day you chose couldn't be better. The recent period is the gap period for trade, and even those damned pirates have disappeared. For us, it's going smoothly."

"That is to say, there will be no trouble on the road?"

"That's not good."

Facing Fangzheng's question, Fox showed a wry smile.

"Because it's a free period, who knows what the pirates will come up with. Sir, you are offering rewards at the pier, and the spies of those pirates must have noticed it. Although most pirates will not go to sea during this period , But those slave traders will not let go of this good opportunity, right now is a good time for them to transport and trade slaves, and if they think we are a big fish, they may also attack us."

"I know, don't worry too much."

Regarding Fox's reminder, Fangzheng nodded lightly. Naturally, he would not worry about those pirates. Apart from Nunnally and Kuria, there were no weak people on his side. Fangzheng, Tilia, and Nimf are all master-level existences according to the standards of this world, and Hecate is even more powerful in the legendary field. Not to mention that Fang Zheng is still a prophecy mage, if there are really pirates who want to sneak up on them, it is naturally impossible for Fang Zheng to be ignorant of it.

"Since you are confident enough, sir, I naturally have nothing to say."

Hearing Fangzheng's indifferent answer, Fox also smiled and said nothing more. When boarding the ship, Fangzheng had already cast spells several times, which also let Fox know that his customer was not only a nobleman, but also a powerful mage. Spell casters are characters that no matter what power they are willing to provoke, Fox is no exception. If the captain had any small thoughts before, then now he has put away those thoughts that he shouldn't have, and concentrated on doing his own job well.

"Owner."

At this moment, Nimfu suddenly came out of the cabin. She came to Fangzheng, nodded respectfully to him, and then glanced at Fox not far away.

"There are three ships ahead, approaching us."

"Oh?"

Hearing Nimf's report, Fangzheng was stunned for a moment, but of course he would not have any doubts about the little angel's detection.

"How long will it take to contact us?"

"As far as the current speed is concerned, it will be ten minutes at the fastest."

"Is it a pirate ship?"

Hearing this, Fox next to him hurriedly asked, of course he knew that this blue-haired girl had some strange abilities. A few days before the voyage, Nimf had reminded Fox and Fangzheng of the reefs and pirate ships several times. And it turned out she was right. This also made Fox have a little more respect for this delicate and slender girl. You must know that people who run a boat on the sea are most afraid of all kinds of sudden accidents. Having a little angel here can at least save them from many accidents. Needless casualties and consumption.

"There are two pirate ships and a cruise ship."

"You mean, two pirate ships are chasing a cruise ship?"

Hearing this, Foxton showed a bitter face. This is the last thing you want to see when sailing on the sea. Of course, those ships that are chased by pirate ships will not be caught without a fight. If they can really beat each other, then There is no need to run away. But now it seems that the cruise ship obviously has no combat power, or the strength of the two pirate ships is so strong that they can only flee.

Of course, at other times, Fox would have said a few words of emotion at most, but it's different now, what the hell is the rhythm of pulling monsters over after ADD to destroy the group!

"Can you escape?"

"That's too late."

Facing Fang Zheng's inquiry, Fox sighed helplessly, then he put the pipe back into his pocket, and picked up the weapon casually. Sailing on the sea is a very dangerous thing. Generally speaking, even the most experienced captains will not let their ships deviate from the channel at will, because it is very likely to cause them to lose their way. So even if he knew there was trouble ahead, he couldn't open it.

"Ready to fight! Boys!"
