Chapter 125: Tianshui Island

Views:

"Tianshui Island is the name of the supply island."

Charles looked at the crude map of the island that Kevin had drawn in front of him.

Because he was a slave, he was kept in a cage since he arrived on Tianshui Island and did not get much information.

But even the least amount of information is much better than being completely in the dark.

He now knew that the island, which was only half the size of the coral island, had been completely occupied by pirates. The overall shape of the island was a bit like a crab, and the center of the two crab claws was the pirates' dock.

The reason why it is called Tianshui Island is because fresh water flows down from the sky of this island.

There are so many pirates up there that Kevin saw thousands of them alone when he was being sent to the cage.

They are not civilians, but pirates who specialize in robbing ships, and basically all of them can be considered combat-capable.

Charles himself didn't believe that there was no pirate stronger than himself.

This was a tough battle, but facing this crisis, Charles was calmer than he thought.

At least compared to those weird and unpredictable unknown islands, the enemies on this island are of the same kind. Even if they are powerful, they are much better than unpredictable things. At least they can communicate.

"Bang" the boatswain walked in again without knocking. He scratched his neck a little embarrassedly and said: "Captain, the slave suddenly committed suicide..."

"What?! Didn't I tell him not to let him know about the sinking of Yingdao Island?"

Dipper defended himself with a wronged look on his face. "How would I know which bastard let it slip? If these guys who lied let me know who did it, I'd make him clean toilets for a month!!"

Charles sighed helplessly, "Let the doctor see if he can be saved."

"There's no way he can be saved. His brains are all over the floor. He suddenly snatched Carey's large-caliber flintlock rifle and shot himself in the forehead. It was so fast that he was definitely going to die." Dipper spread his hands and shrugged.

"Then let the sailors give him a simple funeral and send his body to the sea." Charles waved to Dipper to signal him to go out.

Regarding Kevin's death, Charles said he couldn't say he was sad, after all, they had just met, but he definitely felt a little regretful.

Especially when I think of him getting on the ship and talking excitedly about the time he hadn't seen his children for several years.

This was someone else's choice, so Charles didn't know what to say. After clearing his mind, he looked at the crude map in front of him.

Although the island is very dangerous, Charles is not without a chance. After all, he is not going to occupy the island. He just wants to find enough fresh water and fuel from the island.

Although food is in short supply, it is not essential. They are all exploration ships and can handle most things in the water, and they can even catch sea fish.

Even if you get sepsis due to lack of vitamins, you can hold on for a short period of time. As long as you can hold on to the land of light, everything can be solved.

Fresh water and fuel seem simple, but they are difficult to find.

Seventeen ships is not a small number. It is absolutely impossible to rush to the Tianshui Island Wharf to grab them. We must find a place to store fresh water and fuel.

But looking at the simple map in front of him, Charles felt a little headache. It was really difficult to find things based on this map.

"It seems that we still need to send people to lurk on the island to look for intelligence..." Charles muttered to himself.

Half an hour later, the captains gathered again on the Narwhal and listened to Charles talk about further plans.

"The specific situation is this. We need to form a small team to enter the so-called Tianshui Island and find fresh water and fuel. Does your crew have any recommendations for this mission?"

"Me! I join." As expected, Feuerbach was the first to stand up.

Although he still didn't know why he was so enthusiastic, Charles agreed.

"Count you in, who else is joining?"

"I have a sharpshooter among my people who can hit the target every time. Do you need him?"

"I can join. My ability is hard to describe, but according to the warship, it is level four."

"My woman can charm people and get the pirates to tell you something."

A group of captains signed up enthusiastically. After all, this was a matter that concerned everyone's lives, and they would always feel uneasy without their own people in it.

Soon, Charles identified the infiltrating members, himself, Lily, a believer of the Illuminati with a relic that can temporarily turn invisible, a woman who can confuse others, and finally Feuerbach.

We are just going to explore for intelligence. The fewer people there are, the better. These people's abilities can be used in exploring for intelligence.

Of course they couldn't just rush over with seventeen ships in broad daylight.

When they saw a lighthouse passing overhead, Charles asked all the selected people to board a small wooden boat.

"As planned, I will be back in a day. You keep an eye on this place."

"You go ahead, I'll be here on the boat." Ke De said to Charles on the deck with a serious expression.

At this moment, their alliance was so solid for the first time.

When the wooden boat carrying four people and a group of rats was put on the water, the Illuminati believer named Richie skillfully operated a machine full of gears at the back of the boat.

The bow of the wooden boat was slightly raised, and the rapidly rotating propeller pushed them towards the lighthouse.

Charles' expression was very solemn, but Feuerbach didn't seem to feel pressured at all and came closer with a smile.

"Mr. Charles, can I ask you a question? Which island are you from? Is the island from the North Sea?"

"I don't know what you're trying to find out, but now is not the time!"

After hearing what Charles said, Feuerbach smiled awkwardly, turned around and leaned towards the woman in black leather. "Oh, my dear, you are so beautiful. If possible, I want to get up with you."

Charles didn't have time to pay attention to all this, his eyes were fixed on the blurry lighthouse in the distance.

As they got closer, a vague island appeared in front of them. A few ships were coming in and out of the dock.

Apart from the lights on the islands, what caught Charles' attention most were the several white lines falling from the sky. They were fresh water falling from the sky.

"Looking at the amount of water coming out, I'm afraid there is a big lake above." Richard jumped out again.

Charles was about to say something impatiently when a dazzling beam of light quickly swept towards this side. It was the searchlight of another ship!
