Dawn of the Grey Tower

In the constant ebb tide, time passed five days and nights. Black Arrow arrived at the Lost Heart Bay, or the highest point of Lost Heart Bay, the day after the three of Losa boarded the ship. As the water recedes, Captain Halfdan must also adjust the position of the hull with the low tide to prevent grounding. As for why he did not simply stop the boat to the original land boundary of the Lost Bay, of course, it was because of fear that someone would take advantage of the hard-won first to take advantage of the water. In this state, the second ship that returned to the Lost Heart Bay returned to the edge of the land on the third day, that is, the day after the Black Arrow returned, and the captain of the ship seemed to know Hafdan, The two said a few sailor greetings across the ship.

But each time the two ships approached, Halfdan would secretly prepare the sailors for weapons. After all, every time a large force returns to the Distraught Bay, there are always a few empty ships without owners on the shore. The winner said that the owners of these ships fell into the water as early as the low tide, and the waves sent the empty ships back. Of course, even such an orphan like Saihe will not believe this, but in this impossible place, many people will not speak out, as long as they can justify themselves.

A little later on the third day, the third ship appeared in the sight of the two captains. Although the flag was not raised, the two old seamen recognized at a glance that it was the infamous pirate captain "fisher" in this sea. flagship. When the pirate ship drew closer, the seafarers could see several shocking holes in the ship's hull. Fortunately, the positions were above the waterline, and there was no fatal injury to the hull's navigation. Obviously, the fishermen in Frustration Bay were challenged during the tsunami.

At that time, Losa, who was already able to bask on the deck with the help of a networm, was a little nervous when he heard the sailors saying that it was a pirate ship, but the Black Arrow and another ship drove past the pirate ship. In the captain's later explanation, the count realized that as long as the Pirates of Distraught Bay, even the most fierce and vicious, would not do it during the tsunami. The purpose of this rule is to allow people in this unreachable area to spend less effort on dealing with their siblings in the face of natural disasters, and the slightly more surplus ships will even actively ask others if they need help.

"This is the last bottom line in this sea. We are free sailors, so we refuse to abide by the laws made by people and the virtues of the noble lords, but we are also living humans, so we will also be like in front of nature. Other animals protect their compatriots like that. As long as they do n’t show their fangs first. And according to those merchants, people are the most valuable goods in the world. Wealth will be a little more. "Captain Halfdan's words gave Losa a new understanding of the land. Perhaps there is no absolute chaos in this world, because the two concepts of chaos and order are themselves artificially formulated standards.

Lothar saw the big pirate called the fisherman on the deck, but from his two severed arms, this guy could not catch any fish in the future. After that, the fisherman and the captain of another ship said something in private. Haddan guessed that the latter should be hired to send himself out of the Bay of Distress. This is not a strange thing. Pirates without arms can live here Captain, especially when the pirate crew looked at their captain with strange eyes. It is said that the fisherman's treasure is hidden near a reef in Despair Bay. It is a wealth that will make people sell their souls. Of course, this has nothing to do with Lothar. Even if he wants money, finding treasure from the vast sea is not a safe way.

By the fourth day, there were more ships returning to the Lost Heart Bay. It seemed that the tide was not so dangerous. Even in the evening of the fourth day, a cargo ship carrying food and fresh water slowly sailed Into the shallow water. Several captains discussed it and bought a third of the food on the ship. They organized a dinner on the flat beach and the sailors celebrated the rest of their lives. Lothar and Networm did not attend the dinner, because when they watched the sailors dancing frantically by the campfire, they both felt a little puzzled in their hearts.

There are more survivors on the fifth day. These ships are basically loaded with the residents of the Lost Bay who took refuge in the sea. The return of these residents means that the entire city has officially entered the stage of reconstruction. People with good water started organizing trips to the shallow sea to recover materials that could be used. Children and women dug things buried underneath on the beach, and people with stronger bones felled trees in nearby mountains to use as materials for building houses. The whole process is quiet and orderly, and there is no hope of building a home, nor despair in the face of ruined homes, and the plain, seemingly endless sea surface, reveals a bit of numbness. People here are used to this kind of life cycle.

In the evening of the same day, Captain Halfdan returned to the ship with a bit of alcohol. He gave a few words to the first officer and knocked on the door of the captain's room that should belong to him. Lothar was sitting in a chair and let Networm check the healing of his limbs. "Did you bother?" The captain took off his hat and hung it on the hook beside the door. Although he said it was bothering, he didn't mean to exit at all. "Then it depends on what you are doing." Networm replied, salty and indifferent, standing up and staring at each other without fear.

Even Captain Halfdan could only share his hands at this time. After a few days of observation, the captain had to admit that the woman in front of him was completely different from the woman he had seen in style. If you must find someone similar to the Networm in this harbour city, then I am afraid that only a very small number of female pirates can be compared. However, the Net Worm's style of conduct is accompanied by self-discipline that pirates will never have, which makes the captain not only wonder where Losa found such a unique lady.

"I think you should still be kind to me, Miss Networm. After all, I saved you and your husband's life." The captain shrugged his nose and sat down on the bed with carelessness. "Don't talk about this, I just finished the captain. After the meeting, I have something to ask you. Do n’t be nervous. The same thing is now done on every ship. We are looking for an answer to one thing. If you know or can provide clues, I can offer you compensation, of course , Deduct the money you owe me first. "

"Tell me about it," Lothar said, and even if he didn't know, the things that could be valued by all the captains at this time were correct.

Haddan nodded and thought about the wording. The sailors usually used a relatively lack of language. He had to recall a moment before he could find an accurate vocabulary, "Our city, heartbroken bay. It originally had a black minaret in the center. When the first sailor found this place, it was there ~ www.readwn.com ~ Its history is longer than the history of this city. But now, it is gone. There should have been only a ruin in the location of the minaret. In this tsunami Here, something destroyed it. We are curious what is going on here. "

Lothar and Net Worms glanced at each other. They did have some very vague memories of seeming to be staying in a building between the Cursed Lady and the Witch Cave, but they were not sure there was the black minaret that the captain said. It may also be a room with a special decoration in the witch cave, or an illusion caused by pure magic. Confusion is reflected in the faces of the two. The captain nodded and asked no more. He came to ask the two because they were picked up in the witch's no-fly zone. Now it seems that they should only be brought there by the waves. "In that case, I wo n’t bother you much. In two days, the first houses will be built, and you can disembark and rest in my rooms. The reconstruction of the city will take a while, and we will next time Going to sea will be after that. So, hurry up and rest, kid. Also, do n’t let people see what ’s on you, sailors are superstitious. ”

"Thank you for your reminder, sir." Losa said.

"Don't call me sir, you are not my crew. In addition, no one will use the word you in this city. Before you pay off your debts, give me a little care."
