Chapter 1356 A Speedboat

The deformed ice shark died peacefully.

In just a few minutes, before Az and the others could even get back, Gordon smashed its skull with the quick-frozen swordfish.

Leaning the huge frozen fish covered with blood and brains on the deck, Gordon praised sincerely, "It feels surprisingly good.

By the way, if this thing is reinforced with high-quality keels and low-temperature minerals such as snow-light metal, and an instant freezing bag is installed to freeze it more firmly, it might really be used as a greatsword.

The fish tail and spine are slightly polished, and it is quite sharp."

Ansel came over and stared at him silently for a few seconds, "You are kidding, right?"

Gordon frowned and wiped the blood off the "sword body".

"No, I'm serious. I won't mistreat any weapon that has been with me, even if it's only a few minutes, even if it's just a frozen fish.

Come on, Fish Roe, help me wipe it well and put it in the best place in the cold storage, don't let it melt."

Pork Chop glanced at him, "I think grilling it is the greatest respect for it, meow."

Fish Roe was full of question marks.

He looked at Pork Chop in a tangled way, then at Gordon, and then at the deformed ice shark corpse lying motionless on the deck with its mouth wide open and tongue sticking out.

Thinking that the latter might be serious, he nodded and carefully dragged the frozen fish back to the cold storage.

Pork Chop put his hands on his hips, looked at Gordon with dissatisfaction, then chased after him and helped drag it together.

When they walked away a little, Gordon winked at Ansel, "How is it, how do you feel?"

Ansel smiled happily, "It feels like it can be done!"

The sharp bow cut through the waves.

This is a clipper ship with the Sterling Chamber of Commerce logo but the guild flag.

The ship is slender, with a length-to-width ratio of more than six to one, and has dozens of sails of different sizes. Only the most experienced sailors can operate it freely.

It cannot carry a lot of cargo, but in contrast, this ship has a high speed that ordinary sailboats can hardly reach, and even steam-driven ships are faster.

It only takes fifteen to twenty days from Tangia Port to cross the ocean and reach the New World.

It is nearly twice as fast as a regular ocean-going ship.

A man with long silver hair stood at the bow, his eyes were narrow and his lips were always tight, giving people a feeling that he was very difficult to talk to.

In fact, it was true. When he, the "ace", appeared in the public bar in Dongdoruma, even a half-drunk drunkard would subconsciously shut his mouth.

The slow footsteps approached, waking up Julius who was looking at the sea level and thinking about something.

"Don't be too nervous. I've told you so many times, Julius."

Julius turned around and supported the newcomer. "Master, why are you on the deck? It's too windy here. Go back to the cabin first."

"It's okay. I'm not that fragile."

The man who was respected as "Master" waved his hand, signaling Julius not to make a fuss. "You never learn. Relax yourself."

Julius adjusted his posture and blocked the oncoming sea breeze for the Master. He sighed and said, "It's natural to be nervous. That's news about the 'taboo'.

It's not a relic, but a living 'taboo'. It may even be more than one."

"Huff, huh, huh"

The Master chuckled a few times , "So, that proverb is indeed frightening, cough cough, but anxiety is the most useless emotion, cough.

Let's put those aside for now, just take a vacation for yourself, cough cough. It won't be too late to have a headache when we get there."

"But"

Seeing that Julius was about to say something, the master interrupted him with a smile, "I'm tired, I'm going back to the cabin first, what should I eat for lunch?

Well, help me catch a few fish, it's better than standing here frowning, cough cough.

This is a task, I haven't tasted Nadia's cooking for a long time, her skill in grilling fish is pretty good, although it's still a little worse than pork chops, hahaha."

After helping the master back to the cabin, Julius found the crew, asked for fishing gear, and under the latter's surprised gaze, came to the side of the ship and started fishing.

He is a meticulous person, and he will definitely complete the tasks assigned by the master.

But I don't know if it's because the boat is too fast or because of his fishing skills. After several hours, not a single fish was caught.

His frown deepened, and his whole body exuded a suffocating low pressure. When the crew worked on the not very spacious deck, they subconsciously walked around him.

Finally, someone couldn't help it, but still didn't dare to tell him in person, so they had to secretly find someone to "complain".

After a while, Nadia came over helplessly and patted Julius' shoulder, who was lifting the rod mechanically, "Stop fishing, don't say fish, you scared people away!"

Julius was very persistent, "No, this is the task given to me by the master. He never asks for any dietary requirements, I must do it."

Nadia was stunned for a moment, and then she realized the true intention of the master. She suddenly felt that she didn't know what to say.

Compared with being anxious about the "taboo" that is about to appear in the world, being anxious about not being able to catch fish seems to be a little better?

"Beep--!"

A sharp whistle came from above, which was a signal from the lookout on the top of the mast that the abnormal situation was discovered.

"There's a ship! At ten o'clock, about five nautical miles away, a large ship!"

Julius and Nadia looked at each other, walked quickly to the bow, took out the telescope, and looked in the direction indicated by the lookout.

Although the distance was far, the weather was good, and through the telescope, it was clear that a large ship had indeed appeared on the horizon.

Wait, it seems that there is more than one?

"Is that the ship of the investigation team?"

"Of course."

A slightly neutral female voice sounded, "The charts of the New World have not been made public. The only ships that appeared in this sea area could be the investigation team or our Sterling Chamber of Commerce.

The time of the Chamber of Commerce's ship does not match, so."

"Ms. Jessica." Julius nodded his chin and greeted the visitor.

The guild has the best dragon-beating boat technology, but when it comes to speed, the merchants' clippers are better.

It can even deliver fresh food from the New World to the Old World.

In order to shorten the time on the road, the guild requisitioned the Sterling Chamber of Commerce's clipper.

As a result, the powerful lady president heard something and followed.

Perhaps considering that the boats were borrowed from others, the master did not refuse.

"If I'm not mistaken, it should be the fishing fleet of the investigation team. Those seafood from the New World are one of the flagship products of our Chamber of Commerce."

It is also an important source of funds for the New World Investigation Team.

"The fishing fleet's fishing area will not be too far from the coast of the New World. It will take no more than two days of sailing. Seeing them means that we are almost there." Jessica explained with a smile.

"Then should we approach?" Nadia asked.

Julius raised the telescope again and observed the formation. "It seems that they have the same idea as us and turned to approach."

After a not-too-long wait, the fishing fleet's ships have come close.

There was a commotion from the side of the ship, and a sailor threw a rope ladder down the side of the ship.

Soon, several figures climbed up the rope ladder to the deck.

The first person to climb onto the ship seemed to be a sea hunter? The different skin colors on the chest and back and the webbed fingers are their characteristics, and the long spear on his back proves his identity as a hunter.

Julius had some impression of this face.

His name should be Az? A high-ranking spearman from Moga Village, a member of the special investigation team.

"It's a guest from the Old World! We are holding a barbecue party, do you want to join us?" he asked enthusiastically.

The second person to climb onto the boat was a sturdy giant with a naked upper body and only a pair of leather shorts. He was carrying a... a? Frozen, swordfish?

As the man climbed over the railing and onto the deck, Julius's expression cracked.

The third person to climb onto the boat was a man who was also wearing only a pair of leather pants. Although his muscles were not as exaggerated as the former, they were also angular and smooth.

Jessica's formulaic smile froze on her face.
