Ocean Lords: Start as a Fisherman

Chapter 87: Encountering an "Acquaintance"

Through the port entry record on the ship certificate shared by Cao Ge, Su Wang successfully obtained the guidance route to the waters where the Huoxia Wharf is located.

Then record the anchor point of Fool's Wharf so that you can shuttle back at any time.

Su Wang immediately drove the Wangxin and prepared to head towards the Huoxia Wharf.

According to the instructions on the ship certificate,

Fire Shrimp Pier is only 287 nautical miles away from Fool Pier, which is relatively close.

According to the current speed of the Lost Heart,
The flight only takes about 13 hours, and it is estimated that we will arrive just after nightfall.

The reason why it was so fast was that Su Wang installed a new facility on the Wangxin.

The bronze-level [Speed ​​Turbine] increases the ship's speed by 10 knots and also significantly increases its explosive speed for a short period of time.

The function is very similar to the ability to sail with the wind.

...

After the Wangxin had been sailing smoothly for about 9 hours, it was almost evening.

Su Wang, who was standing on the deck on guard, discovered the abnormality early on.

A few minutes ago, he had discovered the presence of some ship shadows.

As they got closer, they discovered that dozens of strange ships were chasing a large ship.

Seeing this, Su Wang couldn't help but frown.

"Another strange ship? Why are there so many polluters in this sea area?"

Su Wang drove the Wangxin towards the ship being chased, while doubts filled his mind.

After leaving Golden Crocodile Wharf, we sailed for nearly two days without encountering a single strange ship.

After arriving in this sea area, we have discovered traces of strange ships several times.

The large ship being chased now is also very strange.

After all, from a distance, this ship's hull is larger than the Wangxin, and it is obviously not a fisherman's ship.

However, due to the distance being too far, the sails and flags of the other ship could not be seen clearly.

Besides, since it is a local ship, why would it go out to sea alone?
Considering that dozens of strange ships were also a considerable amount of resources, Su Wang decided to go and rescue the big ship.

As the Heart of Destruction approached, the large ship being pursued also discovered its presence.

To his surprise, the other party suddenly changed course, as if intending to pull away the strange fleet chasing behind them.

It seems like they don't want the Wangxin to be involved.

"Heh...are you afraid of implicating me?"

...

On the giant ship,

Tia and Novan, both dressed in casual clothes, stood on the deck of the Giant Claw.

"You're really asking for trouble. Can't you see the polluting fleet chasing you?"

Novan had clearly driven the ship to lead the polluting fleet away, but the small medium-sized boat was still sailing towards this side on its own.

When Tia saw this, she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.

Novan, who was guarding nearby, kept an eye on the polluting fleet chasing behind, and responded in a voice.

"Miss Tia, I've already shown my good intentions, but I can't do anything if the other captain insists on sailing over here."

Compared to the servant-like restraint of the past few days,

Novan's attitude towards Tia at this time was obviously less respectful.

Seeing this, Tia responded in a flat tone.

"That will do, Mr. Novant."

"How long will it take to enter the Fire Shrimp Pier's security zone?"

Novan estimated.

"We should arrive in just over three hours, and only then will we be able to shake off these polluting fleets."

Tia heard this.

"Then I'll trouble you, Mr. Novant."

The strange thing is,

Tia's attitude towards Novan is obviously not the attitude that a superior should have towards an inferior.

It's more like they are in an equal attitude, or even tend to be on the passive side.

Novan also replied after hearing this.

"Miss Tia, once we reach the Fire Shrimp Wharf, my mission will be accomplished."

Tia just nodded calmly at what Novan said.

...

the other side,
The Wangxin approached the ship, which was several thousand meters away, in just over ten minutes.

When he could clearly see the flag on the big ship, Su Wang couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

The pattern, which resembles a giant crab claw, looks so familiar.

Su Wang still remembers this pattern clearly because of what happened a few days ago.

"Novan's ship from the Horned Eel family? How could it appear here sailing alone?"

When we first met, the other party also acted alone.

And it was the same this time, except that there were nearly thirty strange polluter ships chasing after them.

Confused is confused,
Since I met an "acquaintance", it is not difficult to rescue him. It depends on whether the other party can hold on until I finish clearing these strange ships.

As the Heart of Death approached,
After discovering the Wangxin, the strange ship that was chasing Novan's ship indeed split into five ships and sailed towards Su Wang.

Seeing this scene,
Su Wang immediately turned on the sonar radar and took action as soon as the strange ship entered the range.

Among this group of strange ships,
There are only two large strange ships left, and they are still chasing Novan's ship.

There were only five medium-sized strange ships that were dispersed to intercept the Wangxin.

It seems that the hull of the Wangxin is not very large, so the combat power is not dispersed too much.

When the five medium-sized strange ships entered the range of the Heart of Death,
Su Wang immediately drove seven submachine guns to attack.

After only two rounds of artillery fire, five medium-sized strange ships sank from the sea.

Without the connection of large monster ships, these medium-sized monster ships can no longer pose much threat.

...on the Claw,

Novan and Tia also witnessed five medium-sized polluting ships being quickly sunk.

"What a powerful cannon! It can fire more than a dozen shells in one salvo!" Novan couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

What also caught their attention was the strange shells fired by this strange medium-sized ship.

As a member of the protohorn eel family,
Both Tia and Novan recognized this type of cannonball, which was a fish treasure from the rare double-horned thunder eel.

This is also a kind of fish treasure commonly used by the horned eel family fleet.

Tia and Novan became alert at the same time.

After all, the purpose of escaping from the Golden Crocodile Wharf was to avoid the pursuit of the Horned Eel Family.

...

After Su Wang quickly dealt with 5 medium-sized strange ships,
The polluters who were chasing the big ship only then discovered the extraordinary power of the Heart of Destruction.

Immediately, a large strange ship and half of the medium-sized strange ships were sent towards the Wangxin.

Su Wang took advantage of the fact that the other party had not yet arrived and picked up the damaged cores that exploded from the five strange ships.

By the time the second group of strange ships approached, the Wangxin had already launched a preliminary artillery attack.

Just one round of artillery fire immediately caused the attacking strange ship to unfold into a connected form.

On the other side, the polluters chasing the big ship,

Finding that the small boat that had unexpectedly approached was more difficult to deal with, they all gave up chasing the large ship and instead chased after the Wangxin.

The Giant Claw, which was originally being chased, took this opportunity to quickly leave the battlefield and escape somewhere.

By the time Su Wang had expanded his range and gradually eliminated more than twenty strange ships, the large ship suspected to be driven by Novan had already traveled a considerable distance.

Collect the broken cores on the sea surface one by one,

Su Wang raised his eyebrows when he saw the big ship that had sailed away quite far away.

"You ran away without even saying hello?"

At least I have done my part to help him solve a problem.

But the other party left without saying a word.

After thinking for a moment,
The other party had already left, so Su Wang was too lazy to chase after him.

When they come to deal with these strange ships, the only things they care about are the broken cores dropped and the rewards for emergency fishing missions.

After collecting the spoils,
Su Wang continued to steer the Wangxin towards the Huoxia Wharf.

Although due to the different water locations,
However, there seemed to be a point of intersection between the direction in which the Wangxin was heading and the direction in which the larger ship was fleeing.

...

More than two hours later, Su Wang also received a reminder of the change of sea area information.

"We've entered the pure sea area. It looks like we're not far from the Fire Shrimp Pier."

The red night has come,

The Wangxin had already entered the pure sea area and did not find any invasion or interference from strange fish.

Thinking about the few colorful scales I still have in my hand, I won’t get much fish coins as a reward for the task of cleaning up the polluted monster fish.

Su Wang was too lazy to return and sail out of the pure sea area to spend several hours completing the next task.

After driving for more than an hour,

A pier that covers an area even larger than the Golden Crocodile Pier gradually came into view.

It can be seen from this that the Fire Shrimp Wharf is much better developed than the Golden Crocodile Wharf.

What made Su Wang feel strange was that
It was already night time, and as we got closer to the Fire Shrimp Wharf, we encountered several patrol boats.

The Wangxin was stopped by patrol boats several times in succession and was only allowed to pass after the ship's certificate was presented.

This situation made Su Wang feel confused.

"The Fire Shrimp Wharf seems to be on high alert..."

Thinking of the polluter fleets we encountered in the past two days,
Su Wang couldn't help but suspect that the high alert at Huoxia Wharf might be related to the frequent appearance of polluters.

Arriving at the Huoxia Wharf entrance,
Su Wang registered the ship's berth at the registration lighthouse.

Like the Golden Crocodile Wharf, the outer port area of ​​the Fire Shrimp Wharf is also home to rows of houses and shops.

Su Wang easily found a hotel where he could rest and chose a place to rest for the night.

Soon we arrived at the port.

Wander around with your eye for talent and see if you can find any good crew candidates.

With the crew qualification potion,
This time, his selection requirements for crew members were much lower, and it would be enough if they could reach bronze qualification.

Maybe it's because there are too few pedestrians at night.
After walking through several alleys, Su Wang did not find a target that met his requirements.

I did see a few targets with Black Iron qualifications.

However, judging from his attire, he seems to be a shipmaster or sailor.

"I don't know where Lao Cao found Estherlin."

In a previous chat,
Su Wang heard from Lao Cao that his old lover Estherlin had silver cooking qualifications.

Food cooked by Eslin can effectively improve endurance recovery, and sometimes even cook food with temporary additional attribute enhancements.

This is an effect that only rare fish meat can produce.

Su Wang couldn't help but feel a little envious.

Even ordinary fish can be cooked to resemble rare fish, so wouldn’t it be better to use rare fish?

After wandering around for more than an hour,
Shops in all the alleys began to close, and there were even fewer pedestrians on the streets.

Su Wang felt that it was too inefficient to search for the crew members at this time, so he decided to return to the hotel to rest and search again tomorrow when there were more people.

Just as Su Wang was on his way back to the hotel, a large ship with a crab claw flag drove into the Fire Shrimp Wharf.

Two cloaked figures, one tall and one short, walked down from the boat.

"Miss Tia, we've arrived at the Fire Prawn Wharf. Let's separate here..."
