Chapter 377 Renaissance, Baisha Island Development Plan 1.0
"It's cool, this level really understands me, and it just happened to arrange such a task for me!"
Looking at the newly refreshed Level 4 mission, the contemplation on Sumo's face finally faded away, and he became filled with uncontrollable joy!
During my previous escape, the main reason why I chose Baisha Island was because it is located on many important routes.
In this "blessed land", all you need to do is rely on the guns and weapons in your hands to create crushing suppression and do a few jobs to pay for the road.
In the early stage of this test, you can quickly accumulate resources that other players cannot accumulate in dozens of days or even a year and a half, and achieve overtaking.
Of course, if this was the real world, Sumo might be more restrained and figure it out slowly.
But the current world is obviously a virtual test. Even if it turns this place upside down, it will not affect the peace of the outside world at all.
"There are two goals now"
"First, we must work out how to reduce my wanted star count as soon as possible. Otherwise, as I do more evil, I will be surrounded and suppressed in the early stage, which will be troublesome."
"Second, we must quickly find out the current situation of other players and how long it will take for this world to go to war!"
The status of the mermaid family is very noble in this deep sea world.
After realizing that this identity could bring countless conveniences, Sumo also gave up the thought of taking off the mermaid suit.
And after two days of getting familiar with it, Somo's movements became much faster when he went down the mountain with a three-pronged two-edged knife, and he could even occasionally jump between rocks.
When Somo followed the original path back to the big rock where he lived before, as expected, the murlocs' cleaning work was still not completed.
However, now that he had a new goal, Sumo no longer waited, but continued to drag his body towards the beach.
This place where the big rocks are placed is a temporary camp that Somo decided upon when he came to the island. It is about 500 meters away from the beach on the west side of the island.
Except for a 100-meter sand buffer zone in the middle, the remaining 400 meters are covered with lush coconut trees.
The reason why I chose this place is that there is a small indented bay on the beach to the west, where the stolen wooden sailboat can be docked.
Secondly, because the place in the west is the source of the freshwater river on the entire island, there is no need to worry about someone sneaking up and poisoning the water.
Of course, the fish people who were busy on the beach would not think too deeply about Somo's considerations.
Of course, their brains could not support them in thinking about why the noble mermaid prince would set his camp in this place.
At this time, watching the waves of supplies being packed up on the shore, they were so simple-minded that they were very excited!
"Children, be careful with your hands and feet. Don't tear these clothes. We will need them later!"
In the distance, seeing the fish-man acting carelessly, Somo shouted loudly and quickened his pace.
"Yes, leader!"
Hearing Somo Lao's shout from afar, nine fishmen, from Yu 1 to Yu 9, all raised their necks and shouted in response.
This deep-sea world uses slaves to the extreme.
Although these fishmen were rescued by Somo, they were still extremely obedient and were one of the best laborers in the early days of the island.
If Baisha Island was not in urgent need of a wave of basic materials to build island facilities, Sumo would have directly targeted the slave ship as the first target of robbery.
Moreover, this time the group relics did not set a definite boundary between good and evil like when the external title was obtained.
After having the game levels to secretly fuel the flames and the information obtained in the wasteland,
Sumo knew that it was because of the lack of Poseidon's monitoring that the entire trial world became the twisted state it is today.
In other words, even if Poseidon is involved, this is the result he wants to see.
As for what you did in this process, Poseidon doesn't care, and neither does the game.
Therefore, Somo made a decision. He wanted to take the murlocs and pretend to be the ocean guard!
At least in the early stage, Baisha Island cannot make too many enemies, and cannot let passing merchant ships know that there is a group of vicious pirates here!
In the eyes of outsiders, he wants to build Baisha Island into a famous entertainment paradise on the sea.
These elements that were favorites of medieval navigators and pirates on Earth, Somo decided to recreate them all authentically on White Sand Island.
And relying on the flow of people coming and going, even if Sumo stayed on the island every day, he could know everything that was happening in the entire ocean without leaving home.
At that time, we will secretly develop force and openly collect wealth and intelligence.
With a two-pronged approach, Sumo was confident that he could fight even with the big guys in Poseidon's army on the ranking list.
Moreover, there is another reason why Somo is determined to develop this island:
"According to the instructions from the command, only about an hour has passed outside now. Based on this calculation, half an hour outside is a day to test world standards."
"In 3 days and 72 hours, I can stay in the trial world for 144 days, a full five months!"
"With such a long time, I can fully put into practice the territory infrastructure construction that I have recently learned. When I go to the New World, I won't have to cross the river blindly and feel confused!"
Although he knew that the later levels would be very grueling and that he might not be able to stay for so long before quitting, Sumo felt full of energy after having a good outlook.
Command all the fishmen to quickly clear away the loot, and let the fish completely destroy the body and eliminate all traces.
Taking all the fishmen with him, Somo returned to the temporary camp.
Because we only came here in the morning, the current camp is very crude and we haven't even built a simple shack for sleeping at night.
In the early days of the wasteland, this would have been a big project.
but now.
Taking out two high-quality axes, Sumo demonstrated on the spot how to chop down trees and build a shed.
Seeing the nine fishmen happily running towards the broad-leaved tree in the distance, Somo smiled and turned his attention back to the looted map.
In the deep sea world, although the style of ships and folk customs are similar to those in the Middle Ages on earth, due to the blessing of the gods, maritime transportation is extremely developed.
This map not only records all the named places within the nearby three thousand nautical miles.
Some more important basic information is marked on it, which solves the current big problem of Somo having a blind eye on the deep sea world.
"Because it is a world controlled by gods, there is no king in the strict sense in the Deep Sea Capital. Instead, the highest official is the high priest who is responsible for liaison with the divine authority."
"The nearest large-scale official institution to Baisha Island should be the Sea Emperor Capital City, 1,800 nautical miles away, and the place where I escaped should be this Baoyu Town."
Based on the calculation of the direction and distance of escape, Somo easily spotted the place where he landed on the map.
The straight-line distance between Baoyu Town and Baisha Island is 140 nautical miles. At the speed of a small sailboat with a full tailwind, it takes about 14 hours of sailing time.
As a satellite town of Shaxian County, the vicinity of Baoyu Town has become the economic backbone of the satellite town because of the abundance of small treasure fish that are sold at a high price in the deep sea world.
If the passing merchant ships are not fully loaded, they will basically go to Baoyu Town to buy some small treasure fish and transport them away to earn the price difference.
And Baisha Island happens to be located on the choke route to Baoyu Town.
This route is calm during the day and seems to be very suitable for sailing. However, from the wind direction, because the east wind blows in the opposite direction, the speed of the sailboat will become very slow.
Therefore, passing ships will repair on the edge of nearby uninhabited islands.
At night, when the wind direction changes from east to west, everyone will get on the boat again and arrive at Baoyu Town in the early morning.
Early in the day is the prime time for all fishermen to sell small treasure fish caught at night.
At this time, loaded with the freshest fish, the ship will set sail non-stop to its final destination.
"This route has been developed for three and a half years. The value of the small treasure fish has also been recognized by nearby towns. The importance of the route is two and a half stars. There will be many merchant ships coming."
"If I want to rob, ah, no, collect tolls, the time should be from noon to afternoon. The time for them to rest is just right!"
While thinking, Somo tapped his knuckles on several points on the map where merchant ships would rest, and carefully calculated in his mind.
In the maritime world, it is not easy to be a pirate.
If the Hope can be summoned, let alone plundering these merchant ships, even if it directly increases the wanted star number to six, Sumo will not be afraid at all.
But as far as the small sailboats currently owned by Baisha Island are concerned, if the other party's ship is a large merchant ship, let's not talk about the other party's weapons and the strength of the ship.
If the other party senses something is wrong and turns around and runs away, the speed of the small sailboat will not be able to keep up.
Moreover, the mission in Level 4 has detailed requirements: all the goods on a cargo ship must be plundered.
This requires that we either don't start a fight, or if we do, we have to fight it simply.
In total, the only point where we can attack is when the opponent's ship is hovering on the coastline and the sailors go ashore to rest.
At this time, as long as you touch the ship and control the person driving the ship, you can ensure that the merchant ship will not escape. At that time, whether to kill or surrender will be decided by Somo.
Unknowingly, Sumo, who was hurriedly designing a robbery plan, did not realize that compared to two months ago, he had become much stronger.
Two months ago, when faced with a group of gangsters chipping away at the outer wall of the shelter, Sumo was terrified and had to give himself a mental warning before he dared to rush out to kill the enemy.
Two months later, looking at the map, Sumo decided on a small battle that might involve hundreds of people with a wave of his hand.
Growth is never silent.
The changes in mentality and strength have gradually made Sumo a strong man.
This kind of momentum displayed by the strong man's movements is also one of the main reasons why Somo was able to subdue the nine little fishmen so easily.
As the plan was slowly finalized, the sky on Baisha Island gradually became darker.
After nightfall, due to the isolation of the island, the air here is both humid and cold. With the sea breeze blowing, even if there are coconut trees blocking it, the surface temperature of living things can be quickly taken away.
After assisting the little fish people to build two shacks, the first "sacrifice ceremony" on Baisha Island was officially held.
There are two bonfires. The pot on the left bonfire is cooking delicious treasure fish soup, and the pot on the right is cooking a small bag of military compressed biscuits.
Surrounding Somo who was adjusting the flavor in front of the pot, nine little fishmen held hands and chanted while turning.
"Thank you, the great God of the Ocean, for blessing our existence in the deep sea world. It was you who sent us the commander and saved us from slavery!"
"Thank you, the great God of food, for giving us such delicious food so that we no longer suffer from the cold on cold nights!"
"Thank you to the powerful commander for driving away the evil ocean guards and protecting our freedom in the deep sea world!"
After three sentences of human speech, the prayers of the murlocs turned into obscure foreign languages. When paired with the crackling sound of wood burning in the bonfire, it was extremely harmonious.
"The God of Food?"
For some reason, as these murlocs prayed, a strange feeling arose in Somo's heart.
Two days before the trial, the vague call buried deep in my heart seemed to become clearer under the close singing of the murlocs.
It was as if there was a voice saying something and conveying something.
But helplessly, considering that he was in a trial world and might be under the watch of the game, Somo resisted the idea of trying to "transform" and concentrated on preparing the food pot in front of him.
As a bottle of psionic water was added to the soup pot, the eyes of the fish people suddenly changed. Somo laughed loudly and announced the start of the dinner.
"Eat, eat, you will be my team in the deep sea world!"
