Chapter 27: Pan-continental Visitors

Harry set the helm casually. He had been traveling on this sea route for decades and would not deviate from the course with his eyes closed. As an experienced captain, he had always longed to sail on the route to Pangea, but

His broken ship cannot withstand the gravity of the open ocean areas of the Sea of ​​Tranquility...

"I'm old... Even if I have the strongest ship, I can't use it to cross the Sea of ​​Tranquility..." Harry sighed with regret and regret. His now aging body could no longer bear the excess weight.

In this state, passing through some areas with slightly higher gravity will cause him to have cerebral hemorrhage.

He stared at the calm sea in front of him in a daze. For decades, Harry had been living between the northeastern coast of the Inheji Kingdom and other ports on the western continent. He basically had no chance to go too far into the tranquil sea, and as his body grew stronger

The worse it gets, even some routes on the edge of the Sea of ​​Tranquility

It was already unbearable. This was his last return to Hong Kong, and then he had to bid farewell to the ocean that carried his lifelong memories. Although he had deep reluctance and regret, he thought of the leisurely life after retirement and the well-behaved family.

Lovely grandchildren, and a little bit of joy to look forward to.

This time he went to sea to go to the Land of Dispute in the southern part of the Western Continent. However, his employer arranged a lot of powerful bodyguards on the ship, which allowed Harry to successfully unload the cargo. After that, he couldn't wait to leave the port and go home.

There were so many racial conflicts between people that he didn't want to stay there for a moment longer.

I was fondling the old and mottled wooden railings with nostalgia. I didn't plan to sell this old boat, since it wasn't worth much anyway, so I just let it run aground on the beach in front of my house. It could be used as my tomb in the future.

Therefore, Harry was not going to go to the big port of Inhegi. He wanted to return to the small fishing port in his hometown town, disband the crew, and then let this dear old ship spend the rest of his life with him.

"The Sea of ​​Tranquility under the sunset is so beautiful that it's intoxicating. I've never gotten tired of seeing it for decades. It's a pity that I can never see it again." Harry sighed and said to himself, and continued.

You can return to your hometown by heading north. This journey is very easy. Now

The ship has passed the western edge of the Marshall Islands. The archipelago is composed of countless islands and reefs, extending all the way to the open ocean waters of the Sea of ​​Tranquility. The dense reefs have caused all routes to avoid that area, except for some smuggling ships.

No one will go that way.

Harry took out his binoculars and looked east. Pirates occasionally appeared on the edge of the Marshall Islands. He had to be careful. It would be an injustice if he died on the way home. After watching for a while, his mouth slowly moved unconsciously.

Opening wide...the telescope fell from his hand. The crisp sound of the hollow tube telescope falling on the deck woke Harry up. He shuddered and hurriedly picked up the telescope and wiped it. He kept thinking about it in his heart.

The Poseidon of Amfaria prays.

"Supreme King of Whirlpools... This is an illusion! It must be!" He put the telescope in front of his eyes again with anxiety, but the picture in the distance completely shattered his luck.

An ice floe was floating towards him! It had never snowed in this area, so how could there be ice on the sea? Although it was too far away to see clearly, he was sure that there was a figure standing on the ice floe.

"Hurry up and pull all the sails to the highest level!" Harry shouted hysterically at the sailors. This old ship could hardly support sailing at full speed, but the situation was urgent now!

After he hurriedly asked the first mate to take the helm, he rushed down the gangway and issued various preparation instructions as he ran. However, these sailors were obviously not meant for combat, and neither was he...

After the sails were full, the mast of the old sea ship began to make a worrying "creaking" sound, but Harry no longer cared about it. Watching the sailors clumsily pulling out the rusty scimitars, he felt a little desperate.

The figure obviously has extraordinary power, and now we can only hope that he is not one of those bloodthirsty thugs in the Land of Disputes...

Picking up the telescope and looking east again, Harry let out a light sigh. The ice floe was still there, but the figure on it was gone... Just as he was secretly guessing, a blur suddenly appeared in front of his eyes, a young man in white robes.

The man landed right in front of him, startling him.

After seeing the young man's appearance clearly, Harry relaxed slightly. He could feel a gentle temperament from the young man, not like a bloodthirsty person. And he had never seen such a person in the Western Continent.

The clothes were simple and had an ancient and noble charm. Before he could speak, the young man took out a few gold coins and handed them to him.

"Don't be nervous, Captain. I just want to follow your ship to the Western Continent. If possible, prepare some food for me." Heras smiled and said, "By the way, don't ask for fish!"

Harry took the gold coin in a daze. This mysterious man seemed to have no ill intentions... It seemed that the King of the Whirlpool really listened to his prayers. "I must be more pious in the future!" he made up his mind.

"Prepare the most sumptuous dinner, hurry up! No fish!" he shouted to the stunned sailors. Although they didn't mean any harm, he didn't dare to neglect. Besides, they paid for it.

Although this so-called sumptuous dinner is nothing more than some pickled bacon, it is nothing less than a delicacy for the fishy Heras. For more than a year, he has been relying on those unpalatable sea fish and ruby ​​space.

The dry bread stored in the ring made me almost forget what meat tasted like.

"From the accent you speak in Common Language, you should be from Pangea. I have seen a few visitors from Pangea before." Seeing that Heras liked the dinner he arranged, Harry asked carelessly. But he didn't say anything.

As soon as he said it, he wanted to slap himself in the mouth. Where he was from was none of his business... It would be safer for such an unknown person to send him to the shore as soon as possible.

However, Heras obviously didn't mind too much, as he was not a wanted criminal. "You are right, Captain." He replied casually, "There was an accident during the trip, and I drifted here."

Harry swallowed hard. He had also come into contact with some formal professionals, such as the powerful bodyguards of his employer, but even they couldn't go deep into the Sea of ​​Tranquility alone. The man in front of him could float all the way along the Marshall Islands.

And there are no traces of travel dust on his body at all, which means it is self-evident.

Just when he was a little distracted, the young man asked: "Is there a guide or some private guild-like organization in your hometown town?"

Harry calmed down after hearing this: "Uh... are you talking about adventurers or those thieves guilds or something like that?"

"Yes, you must be very familiar with the customs and customs of the Western Continent." Heras said.

"My hometown is a very quiet fishing port town, and there is no special output around it, so it is not attractive to those people." Harry muttered: "You can go to the slums of Rika City.

The new city lord is said to be a gangster, and the city lacks nothing but law-abiding people."

"Rika? Can the Inheji Kingdom tolerate gangsters controlling the city?" Heras flipped through the geographical maps in his mind, but couldn't find where Rika was. This world is still far away from the information age. Collection of the family

Not all books can cover all aspects, and Herath cannot guarantee how much of them are outdated information.

"This is very common in the Western Continent. Sir, except for the Elf Empire, every country in the Western Continent is composed of a variety of creatures of different races. It is very difficult to manage a city where various races live together. In Inheji,

In the kingdom, only those cities that are completely inhabited by humans are managed by the state. Cities inhabited by other races can simply be autonomously governed by various local forces, as long as they pay taxes on time." Harry elaborated: "In fact, the royal family grants nobles

Our fiefdoms are also lands that are inhabited only by humans."

"There are various races in that city, and there are also many people who are familiar with the geographical environment of the mainland, but these people are quite dangerous...especially in that kind of autonomous zone." Harry took a sip of rum, and then continued

Added: "I have spent my whole life at sea and have never been to those places." Apparently he was worried about Heras asking him to be a guide...

"Where is Rika? Are there elves over there?" Heras asked bluntly.

"Rika is located on the southwest border of the Inheji Kingdom. It is a new city established in the Jinshan abandoned mining area a hundred years ago. It is closely connected with the disputed land in the south. As for the elves, there are indeed many people there who were expelled by the Elf Empire.

Many of the elves are living in other areas of the Western Continent.

The underground world. They are proficient in assassination, and their appearance is excellent. They can easily succeed by selling their bodies for a little bit." At this point, Harry glanced at Heras secretly. He had rarely seen humans whose appearance could put even elves to shame.

Passed by, and there was someone right in front of me...

When Heras heard this, his first reaction was to think of Sally... It seems that in the face of survival, even the most conservative creatures like elves will lose all their moral integrity. There is a gold mountain vein in the family library

According to the information, it is the largest gold mine in the Yinheji Kingdom. Gold can be mined from the entire mountain range, so it is called Jinshan. Unexpectedly, it has been dug out for more than a hundred years.

"A lot of information in the family library should be updated, otherwise expired maps could cause death..." Heras cursed.

Knowing the location of Jinshan, he could probably guess the origin of the disputed land southwest of Rika. It was originally a place where orc tribes lived together. Later, it was conquered by a certain human kingdom and all the orcs were used as slaves. This kingdom itself was a place where humans

Less than 20%, but it has become the largest ethnic group in the kingdom. You can imagine how complex the country's ethnic composition is. The results of the conquest have led to uneven distribution of spoils among various ethnic groups in the country, and they have rebelled. Years of turmoil have

That area became a place without any social order.

It is countless times more chaotic than the United States of Commerce. The chaos in the United States basically occurs outside the city. The security in the city-states controlled by various chambers of commerce is actually pretty good. The United States just does not have unified laws, and the creatures in the land of disputes do not know the law.

How to spell the word...

"Further south from the Land of Disputes is the Evernight Forest. If you can hire an elf guide in Rika, you can enter the territory of the Elf Empire after crossing the Land of Disputes." Herath quickly made a decision, except within the Elf Empire.

Apart from some transmission networks, there are very few fixed transmission arrays in other parts of the Western Continent, and they are still in a backward era where transportation is basically based on walking.
