The huge island straddles the Calradia Empire and the Kingdom of Oran. It should have become the largest trading island in the West Sea, because the straight-line distance between the two countries is the shortest from this island. Unfortunately, it is rare in the West Sea. windless belt.

The windless belt is not really windless. In the spring and autumn of each year, the monsoon will blow for one or two months at that time. With the help of strong winds, boats can quickly reach the island. At other times, if you want to leave it, you can only use paddles. , and at this time, no matter how close it is to the waterway, it will take a long time to paddle by manpower.

The person who discovered the island was named Green, and some people named Colin. He was blown here by the hurricane. Fortunately, the ship was intact, so he was able to leave and told others about his discovery.

Later, some people went to develop this island one after another, but they gave up because of various inconveniences. Even in the heyday of the ancient empire, merchant ships would rather go from the north and south oceans than waste more than half a year in the middle.

At any rate, after thousands of years of accumulation, Green Island has finally accumulated a lot of popularity. At the end of the ancient empire, small towns had been established and they had their own fleets.

Later, the empire was divided and wars were everywhere. Green Island became a paradise because of its remoteness and inaccessibility. Many nobles went to Green Island, hoping to return to their hometown after the war was completely over.

This is the busiest period of Green Island. According to statistics, there were as many as 3 people in Green Island in its heyday, and there were also 3000 guards used to protect itself from pirates.

Later, Augustus I established the Great Calradia Empire, Oran and the southern countries were established one after another, and business and trade prospered again. People in Green Island left one after another. Until today, Green Island has only more than 5000 permanent residents. That's all.

Many people like this island that escapes the world, especially the pirates. It can perfectly escape the pursuit of the imperial navy, but the residents here are not happy. After hundreds of years, they often have conflicts with pirates. The conflict made the residents of the island quite tough.

With such a sturdy folk style, the island's owners are naturally unwilling to eat dirt on this small island. Occasionally, they will go to the main channel to play the role of porters of belongings, and then return to the small island before the end of the monsoon.

However, they have rarely been dispatched recently. Even during the monsoon season, there are many merchant ships coming and going on the island, and they have not left. Some people on the merchant ships have also observed that the residents of the island frequently go to the mountains of the island recently, just because of the time. In a hurry, they didn't go into it.

In fact, what interests them even more is that on the other side of the island, there is a broken boat, and a simple camp has been established on a nearby hill, and island residents can often be seen delivering supplies to the people in the camp.

After inquiring, I found out that these people were sailors who got lost because of the hurricane and strayed into this windless belt. They even had a conflict when they first came, because the armor worn by these people was similar to that of the regular army, and they thought they were coming. Crusade against their imperial army.

It's just that they don't know why these people stick to Green Island and don't leave. With so many merchant ships coming and going during the monsoon season, they can use merchant ships to go back.

In fact, Bob himself is not very clear why these soldiers equipped with iron armor refused to leave. Could it be because they offended someone on the mainland and had to avoid disaster?
Bob Dylan thought he was well-informed and became the leader of the island. His vision was much wider than others.

But Bob has never heard of such a strange thing, but as long as he doesn't come here for his own gold mining idea, it's fine.

Yes, a gold mine was found on the island, not too big or too small. For Bob, it was a lot, enough to allow him to live an extremely luxurious life. Now he is a little nervous, even if the middle-level empire When the sea soldier first came, he even thought he was here to rob gold mines, and launched an attack desperately, but was beaten up severely.

Although they are tough folk, their equipment is not as good as these sailors, and although they have several times more people, there is nothing they can do about them.

In the end, they made a deal to trade food for land to survive until someone came to pick them up.

Several months have passed, and Bob hasn't seen anyone come to pick them up. Even though the monsoon season is coming to an end and they run out of food and want to buy food from them, he sticks to the spot.

This moved Bob very much, thinking that these soldiers were very loyal, and he had the intention to subdue them, but unfortunately, no matter what he said, No. [-] just ignored them, and always believed that their captain would come.

No way, Bob planned to ask them to help guard the gold mine, but found that they were still very determined, and in the end he could only give a little food every day in exchange for the money in their hands.

Just wait, Bob thought, when you run out of money, sooner or later you'll be begging me to take you in.

"Bang!"

There was a loud noise in the mine, and Bob hurried over, only to find that it was the hanging basket that fell down.

"What's going on, won't you be more careful?" Bob was furious, he took a whip and beat the migrant worker who made a mistake, "If you let others know that we have gold mines, I will not spare you!"

"Lord." An elderly migrant worker said, "The rope is corroded due to humidity, and we need to replace the iron rope to last a long time."

"Are you stupid or am I stupid, I can't think of this?" Bob scolded, "People will know what we found in the mountain when they saw me take the iron rope into the mountain, what should I do if I come in to check and find it?"

Several migrant workers were so angry that they dared not speak out, because Bob was surrounded by more than a dozen guards with long knives, and they couldn't beat these people.

At this time, the guards on guard outside grabbed a young man and dragged him over: "Lord Lord, we found a sneaky guy."

"Let me go, I want to find my father!" The boy struggled vigorously, but no matter where he struggled to break free, these are soldiers who have experienced battles.

Bob looked at the kid and said harshly, "Kill it, bury it deeper."

A middle-aged migrant worker who came out with a basket on his back heard a familiar voice and ran over in a panic: "My lord, please forgive me. This is my child. He must have missed me so much that he came here."

Bob kicked him away: "Asshole, if he tells about the gold mine, everyone will be finished and kill him."

"Yes!" The guard raised his knife with a smirk, and was about to cut it down, when the old migrant worker hurriedly said, "My lord, he can work."

"Wait!" Bob nodded, and said to the migrant worker, "Since it's your son, well, he will follow you to work, and he is not allowed to leave until the mine is dug, or I will kill them all! "

"Yes, thank you Lord Lord!" the migrant worker thanked, and pulled the frightened boy over to kowtow together.

"Stop knocking, save some strength to mine, come here, and reconnect the rope for me!" Bob cursed loudly.

In the dense forest, it was as quiet as ever.
