After drawing the Treasure Chest Card, the ghost ship continued to sail towards Chakarlo Port. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Bai Xiaowen gave an impassioned speech to the more than three thousand people of the Free Corps.
Prophet Dio's great name had great influence in the Dark Tide Plane. Many sailors felt a sense of mission to protect their homeland, and most of them were stimulated by military exploits, titles of nobility, and fiefs. They all chose to change their professions and became marines under Prophet Dio's command.
Of course, there were also many people who insisted on leaving, and Bai Xiaowen could not force them.
It was a pity that the Leaf-Covering Peony Painting was still in cooldown, and there was no charm bonus, so the effect of his speech was not good enough.
During the voyage, Bai Xiaowen selected the Free Corps who were willing to stay.
Those who were willing to stay had a strong will to fight, but Bai Xiaowen could not integrate those who were too weak and affected the overall combat strength of the fleet into the combat team. Of course, he also arranged for them to go. With such a large ship, there must be an army cooks responsible for logistics …
In the end, there were more than one thousand and six hundred people who were willing to accept the reorganization and follow the leadership of Bai Xiaowen, the Prophet.
More than one hundred of the old and weak were selected to be logistics soldiers, and the other one thousand and five hundred were confirmed to be combat troops. After completing the formation, Bai Xiaowen looked at the team that was obviously different in spirit and sighed in his heart. This army was one of his assets in the Darktide Plane.
It should be known that among the one thousand and five hundred people, more than three hundred of them were Advanced Elites, and their attributes were quite good.
Of course, these Advanced Elites who were sailors were still weak in terms of combat strength, mainly reflected in their skills. Bai Xiaowen had already seen that among the three precious skills of the Advanced Elite Sailors, one of them was actually to increase the recovery speed of physical strength during sailing …
Bai Xiaowen could not help but think of Captain Urhiya. This guy was simply the shame of the Advanced Leaders. His attributes were balanced and had no special characteristics, but looking at his four skills, other than Inspire, which was a command skill, and Multiple Sword Curtain, which was a relatively lousy attack skill, the other two skills were not very good.
Although Star Guidance could remove control and recover mental strength, the Advanced Leaders themselves had resilience reduction, so this skill was more or less repetitive. As for the passive function of identifying directions, it had no combat power at all.
Bai Xiaowen had also learned about the fourth skill that he hadn't been able to discover before. Captain Julian's fourth skill column was actually a stealth skill, "Hide". The priority of stealth in the static state was quite high, and the visibility range was within 0.3 meters. It could be said that as long as he was not directly hit by someone, he would not be discovered.
However, once he started to move, the Invisibility effect would be greatly reduced, and his visibility range would be as high as 3 meters.
This skill was in line with the characteristics of the Explorer profession, but it was useless in battle.
Furthermore, as non-professional soldiers, these sailors didn't have high combat prowess. Basically, they were at least two levels lower than themselves.
It was no wonder that Urhiya was captured by a Naga Ghost Ship when he led a ship of sailors.
Bai Xiaowen decided to train the Freikorps, including Julian, to practice their combat prowess. He intended to ask Ahan to send one or two official military instructors to help him train the troops. He wanted to see if this group of soft-footed crabs could become stronger, and it would be best if they could learn one or two skills again.
This time in the Blacktide Plane, Bai Xiaowen also figured out the way spirit world characters learned skills.
Spirit world characters didn't learn skills by selling skill books, but spent a certain amount of time practicing. As for the length of practice, it was related to the individual's aptitude and comprehension. When the skill column was full, once a person learned a new skill, he or she would forget the original skill.
As for which skill to forget, it was up to the spirit world character's subjective choice. If the spirit world character didn't choose, he or she would automatically forget the skill with the lowest correlation with the newly learned skill. For example, an elite mage could simultaneously learn Fireball, Frost Arrow, and Flaming Storm, occupying three skill columns. If he or she learned Meteorite, he or she would forget Frost Arrow, but not Fireball or Flaming Storm, unless he or she chose.
This was also the reason why spirit world characters had a high correlation with their skills.
In this raid, the White Phoenix team not only gained a lot of loot, but also had a lot of military power under their control. It was a pity that the ghost ships of the three snake people bases were nowhere to be seen, and they didn't capture any new ships.
The ghost ship took two ghost ships and sailed all the way to Chakarlo Port.
The White Phoenix team met with Ahan and the other representatives of the alliance.
After learning that Bai Xiaowen had taken the opportunity to sweep the three snake people bases, the higher-ups of the allied forces opened their mouths wide.
"In other words … we've won? There are no more snake people bases in the Boinus Sea? "Quartermaster Felix said.
"This good news feels a bit unreal. We only had one battle … In terms of intensity, it can only be regarded as a warm-up, "the dwarf Panga Graybeard said as he looked at Bai Xiaowen." Well, this is indeed good news. It seems that although the prophet is very young, he's not simple. "
"I don't like smart guys, unless they're on our side," the barbarian Basaka muttered.
"Hahahaha …" Ahan laughed heartily. "Dior's good news is really timely. We've finally made up for our mistake in the pursuit to a certain extent … "
"Made a mistake in the pursuit?" Bai Xiaowen asked subconsciously, thinking that it was no wonder the expressions of the allied forces' representatives weren't right when they first came in …
Ahan nodded and said apologetically, "Sorry, Dior, we wasted a great opportunity."
A light suddenly flashed through Bai Xiaowen's mind, and he said, "I understand, you must have met another snake people priest, Orwin … Good fellow, so this priest has been nearby all this time! He's Moore's hidden backup. "
Bai Xiaowen's conclusion was simple. If the snake people priest, Orwin, didn't stay behind to guard the base, then where did the tribal elites he led go? The answer was obvious. Like Moore, Orwin had also come to the island where the ghost ship was besieged, but he had been lurking under the sea. The two priests probably felt that they couldn't put all their chips on the table to deal with Bai Xiaowen, so they supported each other in the open and in the dark.
If Orwin and Moore had gathered their strongest forces as soon as they appeared, with dozens of leaders leading hundreds of elite snake people halberd-wielding warriors and thousands of slave warriors to attack, Bai Xiaowen wouldn't have been able to delay them for so long and would have had to use White Eagle to fly away in advance.
