Chapter 590 New Insights

After falling under the rule of the Green Field Territory, Memphitos fell into depression due to the loss of personnel, shrinking trade scale, and conversion into a semi-military port. However, with the development of technology, especially the emergence of steam sailing ships and fishing nets, Memphitos' fishing industry has developed by leaps and bounds, giving the city a new lease of life and making it lively again.

In the early morning, the sky had just dawned, and the sun had only revealed half of its face. The sound of churning echoed in the civilian port of Memphitos. It was the fishing boats returning from fishing.

"Boss, I didn't expect that Memphitos would develop so fast. Even these fishing boats are using boats that can move without sails."

Under the warm sunshine, an ordinary two-masted sailing ship came from a distance. Standing on the deck, watching the ships coming and going in the port of Memphitos, emitting black smoke, a mouth full of gold teeth, flowing The man with a fierce aura spoke carelessly.

"Idiot, that's a steamship, not a ship that can move without sails."

Hearing this, a lean and short man walked over from the side and sneered.

"Don't they all mean the same thing?"

Da Jinya was naturally unconvinced by the ridicule of his companions.

The leader of the Black Crow Pirates, Riske Holder, didn't pay much attention to the quarrel between his two men. He stood on the deck and quietly looked at the bustling port of Memphitos, thoughtfully. .

As a knowledgeable pirate, when the steam engine came out and ironclad ships roamed the sea, Lithke realized that the sea in the future was likely to be dominated by steam ships.

Although there are extraordinary ships and even legendary battleships in ordinary sailing ships, their number is too small. Ironclad ships can be launched into the sea in batches, which is a huge advantage. What's more, ironclad ships can also be transformed into extraordinary battleships or even legendary battleships. .

With this understanding, Liske also thought about building a steamship. Unfortunately, although this technology has been spread among countries, it is only limited to the national level. Forces like pirates want to It was too difficult to get, but he didn't expect that the steamboats he had longed for had become completely popular in Memphitos, even fishing boats. What was hidden in them really made him feel a little chilly.

Although he is a pirate, because he had formed a "friendship" with Sean in the early stage and helped Sean deal with the Demon Pirates, the relationship between the Black Crow Pirates and Greenfield City has always been relatively harmonious, and there is even a For a period of time, the Black Crow Pirates helped Greenfield City deal with many dark side matters. Under such circumstances, Liske had a relatively complete understanding of Greenfield City, but what he didn't expect was that he just traveled far away. Once, when he came back, Greenfield City had become a place he didn't recognize, which forced him to reconsider the relationship between the two parties.

The ship docks,

He restrained his inner thoughts and arranged his clothes. After doing so meticulously, like a gentleman, Liske took the lead to get off the boat.

As for his men, except for some who stayed behind to guard the ship, the rest followed him. Most of them had happy smiles on their faces. For pirates like them who have been wandering at sea all year round, every time they go ashore and enter Cities are a rare opportunity.

In Memphitos, pure sailboats are rarely seen. The arrival of Liske and his party naturally attracted the attention of others. In addition, although Liske dressed like a gentleman, his men However, the aura on their bodies could not be concealed. Some smart people quickly determined their identities, while some people who had some ideas in their minds had quietly slipped to the security booth at the pier, where Memphitos' security team was stationed. After all, is it everyone’s responsibility to fight against pirates? What's more, if the news is confirmed, the person who reported it can get a huge reward, so why not do it.

Liske, who was a fourth-level extraordinary person, naturally saw all this clearly, but he didn't care and didn't try to stop them, because this time they were invited by the officials of Greenfield City.

"After entering the city, please behave yourself and don't cause trouble, otherwise I won't be able to save you. This is not the sea, let alone a small town. Those fishmen frozen in ice are the best portrayal of it."

About to enter the city of Memphitos, he stopped and turned to look at his men. Liske's expression became very serious.

After hearing this, looking at the wall of penitents that was erected on the coast and spreading out for an unknown distance, and looking at the ugly faces of the fish-men that were frozen inside, the pirates' faces became somewhat restrained. , although they seem lawless, they don’t really know the importance.

"Don't worry, boss."

"We know what's good, boss."

Looking at Liske, the pirates expressed their attitudes one after another.

Hearing these words, his sharp eyes swept across the faces of the pirates, and Liske nodded.

With Liske's consent, the pirates who had long been hungry and thirsty suddenly dispersed in twos and threes. They couldn't wait to empty their wallets of small coins.

After a while, only Liske and Golden Tooth were left on the spot.

"Aren't you going to follow them?"

Looking at the big golden tooth that was still here, Liske asked.

After hearing this, Da Jinya touched his head and shook his head.

"I'm still guarding you, boss."

Hearing this, Liske didn't say anything else. He put on his black hat, arranged his clothes again, and then stepped into the city of Memphitos.

There were many high-rise buildings, a steady stream of people coming and going, and from time to time, a four-wheeled steam locomotive roared by. Looking at Memphitos like this, Liske felt a little dazed for a moment. Such a lively and well-ordered scene was... Something he hadn't seen anywhere else.

Although the name of the Navy Office in Memphitos is inconspicuous, it is one of the real power agencies of Memphitos. As a semi-military port, the security of Memphitos is actually the responsibility of the Navy.

Although it is only an office in name, the Navy has an independent building with a height of 21 floors in Dongcheng District, where land is scarce.

After getting off the tram with the big gold tooth, and looking at the pure white spire-style building in the distance, Liske suppressed all the floating thoughts in his heart.

"Come on, it's time for us to meet the person who invited us."

After regaining his composure, Liske walked towards the Navy Office. The reason why he came to Memphitos this time was because he was invited by the Navy.

Hearing this, Da Jinya followed without hesitation. Although he was surprised by what he saw and heard along the way, he didn't care as much as Liske.
