Following Tang Shidao's order, all the crew members brought out all the lucky items they had collected. The crowmen each took one lucky item and flew towards the glowing whirlpool. Some of the larger items were also pulled up by ropes. Dozens of crowmen worked together to throw the large lucky items into the glowing whirlpool. There were no steps or rituals, they were just thrown in one by one.
Then … nothing happened!
Other than Tang Shidao, Hu Xian and Manhou, the other crew members did not see a magic flash in the sky. They only saw an idiot captain throwing away the lucky items that he had painstakingly collected.
"Continue, this time we will collect items with the name 'courage'." Tang Shidao continued to order weirdly.
The crew members clutched their chests.
Their hearts ached, their beloved idiot captain was addicted to playing with the water.
But what could they do?
They did as they were told.
The respected captain was a good person who built new ports time and time again, gifted islands time and time again, and distributed money time and time again so that everyone could live and work in peace. In the harsh world where there was no distinction between sea merchants and pirates, the captain was simply the reincarnation of a kind god. Not to mention wasting the famous items, even if they were told to die, they would be willing to do so.
Soon.
With the rise of new ports, the Black Raven Fleet was already a force praised by everyone.
Oh, except for the pirates.
Because the Black Raven Fleet had a 'paranoid' obsession with fighting pirates, not to mention meeting them halfway, as long as they heard of pirates, they would chase after them and fight. When the pirates heard about the Black Raven Fleet, they would either gnash their teeth in hatred, set sail at night, or turn around and flee. The pirates were not stupid, the Black Raven Fleet had more than a thousand ships and soldiers who could fly … No one could win!
Those who were confident that 'I can fight back' were all fed to the fishes.
The second collection.
In less than half a month, Tang Shidao received an unexpected message: Someone was collecting items with 'courage' and 'wisdom'! These fleets had collected them earlier than him, for example, the Mage's Dragon Fleet had been collecting items with 'kindness' since the beginning.
"Tang, they seemed to have noticed it, what should we do?" Hu Xian did not pay attention before.
"They guessed it, they are not stupid. It's okay, there is no competition, just cooperation. Tell the crew to give up on collecting items with courage, we will look for items with 'integrity'. Just one type, don't repeat. Also, get someone to spread the news that our Black Raven Fleet is looking for an item of integrity. As long as they hear the news, they will know what to do. "Tang Shidao gave a new order.
When the crew heard the new order, they asked what they should do with the collected Courage items.
Tang Shidao asked him to leave it behind and put it in the middle of a port square.
Whoever wants to take it can take it.
Because the Great Voyage Planet used seabirds to communicate, the various forces quickly received the news. When they heard the news from a fleet of a thousand ships, the sea merchants and pirates who were unaware of the situation were scared out of their wits. What was the concept of a thousand ships? Logically speaking, a thousand people were already a force to be reckoned with, let alone a thousand ships. The first thing they did was to gather information and avoid this giant.
At this time, the mages also received the news.
"Abandon the item of trust and place it in the center of the harbor's plaza. Since the Sixth Sage has given up on the Courage item, we should cooperate. Before the real treasure is revealed, there's no point in us competing. "The Giant Dragon Fleet was the first to announce the news. They were the team with the most Mages.
"Give up on the integrity item, let's change it." Some small teams only had one or two or three people, and they didn't want to fight.
"What are they doing, aren't they looking for artifacts?" Some mages didn't understand.
"Could these items be important clues? Okay, I'll look for them too. "Some mages noticed and joined the ranks.
No matter what everyone thought.
No one touched the 'good' items that the Giant Dragon Fleet was looking for. They also gave up on the 'integrity' items that the Black Raven Fleet wanted and didn't compete with the giants.
When they thought of the Black Raven Fleet.
A fleet of a thousand ships!
Haha.
They thought that the Sixth Sage had been eliminated, but they didn't expect that he was just hiding for a while to prepare for battle.
Thinking again, the Black Raven Fleet had already started collecting lucky items before, it seemed that they had already found some clues. The Sixth Sage shouldn't have such a brain, right? It was his first time here … Well, it must be the Lake Immortal's idea. The Lake Immortal was a powerhouse of the Astral Mage Tower, it wouldn't be strange if it was her.
As the news spread.
A strange trend began to appear on the Great Voyage Planet, some of the usually unimportant items quickly became rare items, and the ones who collected them were all outsiders who could command demons. At first, the pirates dared to reach out, but after dozens of waves died, they completely withered and didn't dare to compete for such items anymore.
The sea merchants were the happiest.
Because these captains who commanded demons were very generous, they were never stingy with money … It was as if money was not important to them.
The Black Raven Fleet.
The crew members were also in pain and happy.
They were in pain because the 'kind-hearted' captain was too stupid, he didn't care about any rare treasures, he just stared at those unimportant and idle items. Happy … You're not happy counting money every day. The Lake Immortal's second mate's marines were super awesome, they could find some treasures every once in a while.
The captain who wasn't in his right mind didn't like gold at all.
Except for rewards.
Every time they entered the port, they would buy the best food, the best wine, the best meat, whatever was expensive, they would buy. The merchants at the dock were all smiling, every place the Black Raven Fleet Captain went to, there would be orders for ships. At least a few ships, at most dozens, everyone would have a share, they would never miss out.
Gradually.
The Black Raven Fleet became more and more popular, when they heard that the Black Raven Fleet was coming, the port governor would personally come out to welcome them.
One must know.
This giant not only brought trade goods, it also brought endless business opportunities. A fleet of thousands of ships, when a group of rich sailors came down, the whole island would immediately enter 'prosperity mode'. Besides, the Black Raven Fleet Captain was also a 'buy buy buy buy' monster, he would be unhappy if he didn't spend money.
You could suspect that the Black Raven Fleet Captain's brain was not normal.
But you couldn't suspect his wallet.
Not long after.
Every time they heard that the Black Raven Fleet was coming, people would inevitably cheer. The pirates scattered, the caravans gathered crazily, countless materials poured in, everyone was ready for a trade carnival. What good faith items, there was no need to collect, people had already prepared in advance to put them on the dock and wait to be exchanged for money. The Black Raven Fleet Captain, who had a 'gold aversion', would definitely exchange your goods for several times the price, he would definitely not give you less than a coin.
Slowly, people couldn't wait for the Black Raven Fleet to come to the port.
They haven't arrived yet?
It doesn't matter.
Go find them.
With money and goods, there was no need to be afraid that the Black Raven Fleet couldn't afford the price. Especially those who had good faith items, they could rent a ship out to sea and trade with the Black Raven Fleet. Worried about pirates? Oh, if you have the guts to rob then try. If you rob good faith items, it would be strange if the Black Raven Fleet didn't chase you for tens of thousands of miles.
Looking at the scene of 'tens of thousands of ships'.
A powerhouse like the Lake Immortal was shocked.
Normally, she would be able to flatten everything in front of her with a single slap. However, the contract limited her to a beginner level spell, she couldn't use too much power. The Lake Immortal wasn't shocked by power, but by Tang Shidao's ability to control. Then she heard the Controller's report: Our fleet is gradually making a profit. At this moment, the Lake Immortal couldn't help but think deeply.
All this time, Tang Shidao had been throwing money, madly throwing money.
Unexpectedly.
This kind of throwing money slowly brought about profits.
Because of the large volume of trade?
Because the caravans rushed over to trade, turning the Black Raven Fleet into a floating island?
The Lake Immortal was suddenly interested.
She decided to see the changes from beginning to end with her own eyes.
Soon.
They entered a new undeveloped island. The boatmen skillfully carried out their work, and the Raven Men followed the logging. The sailors set up camp and built houses. The miners began to search for ores, and some people built foundries. The merchants organized the market and began to trade goods. The Lake Immortal stood at a high place and looked down, it was like a group of ants … No, like a group of machines, everyone was working in one direction.
When the people nearby rushed over, a large number of merchant ships moved in, and this place quickly turned into a new harbor.
Those who wanted to leave prepared to board the ships.
Those who wanted to stay worked hard to build their own houses.
They all believed … that this place was their new home! The Black Raven Captain would definitely leave it to them, and would definitely sign orders for food and ships, ensuring that everyone could smoothly get through the difficult period of their new life. Once their lives were stable, they wouldn't have to worry about the future.
They also knew that the pirates feared the 'Black Raven Flag', as long as this flag was here, the pirates would definitely not dare to invade.
Seeing this, the Lake Immortal understood.
This was a whirlpool.
A whirlpool of benefits.
As long as it operated according to certain rules, it could bring benefits to everyone. Of course, the Black Raven Fleet was the most important military guarantee, without military force, the pirates could easily destroy all of this.
Time passed day by day.
The Black Raven Fleet was getting bigger and bigger, with more and more crew members, and more and more new harbors.
Slowly.
By the time the other mages were thinking about it, they were already surrounded by information about the Black Raven Fleet, and no longer had to deliberately inquire about it. The dragon fleet that had long been surpassed and left behind was also puzzled, "Big business? It's useless, this is Captain Blackbeard's plane, what does the Sixth Sage want to do? "
At this time, the other mages began to laugh.
"What a ridiculous move."
"Does he want to save these people? Haha. "
"Hmph, useless effort. Captain Blackbeard is obviously an inferior person. No matter what order the Sixth Sage establishes, Captain Blackbeard can destroy it all in a month. "
"What a stupid move, it's purely a waste of time, what's the use of being so kind-hearted as a mage."
"Haha, if you're so kind-hearted, go practice the Resurrection Spell, go to the Forbidden Land to save those warriors."
The mages laughed contemptuously.
Maybe they knew that it was useless, or maybe they were jealous.
In short, no mage agreed with this approach.
This plane world belonged to Captain Blackbeard, he was the master here. No matter what outsiders did, the result would continue according to Captain Blackbeard's temperament. According to Captain Blackbeard's character, even if the Sixth Sage helped him raise a flock of golden chickens, he would still kill them to go with wine. Mud was mud, the mage net couldn't even hold it up.
The Lake Immortal couldn't understand it either.
But she was sure of one thing … Tang Shidao wasn't an idiot! If a smart person was desperately doing stupid things, then he must have a reason to be stupid.
During this period of time.
A translucent grey shadow appeared beside Tang Shidao.
In the beginning.
This shadow was just a crow. Not long after, it turned into an upright Crow-Man. Later on, it slowly humanized, only adding a little more wings. Recently, it was no longer 'it', but 'he'.
A translucent shadow, the shape of a human, the appearance of an old man.
At first, it was empty handed.
Slowly, it added a staff and a cat.
Of course, it was still a shadow, a translucent shadow like a grey fog. This grey shadow had been following Tang Shidao, but gradually, it began to move on its own again. It was like a busy teacher, constantly copying something, constantly studying something. What was even more bizarre was that this grey shadow's casting and cultivation actions were completely no different from a human.
All this time, the grey shadow didn't cause any damage … it had no power, it was just an illusion.
However.
Everyone looked at it and felt a 'sacred and inviolable' feeling, as if this shadow had supreme power.
"Second Brother, is he the legendary mage?"
Man Roar's brain was one-track minded.
But sometimes, he spoke more directly to the core.
"Of course not." The Lake Immortal replied softly, "The legendary mage is already dead. Unless the mage net has a file and uses a special method to revive him, he can't appear in any way. This is Tang's spell, probably the mutated illusion of the 'Formless Ghost Crow'. "
"He's clearly human, although he's translucent." Man Roar had an opinion.
"This is like an image, a piece of music, a painting. Tang felt some energy rhythm, and then presented it according to his imagination. "
"Then why can't he speak?"
"He's not human. Under the protection of the contract, the past can't appear at will. This is just Tang's imagination, it doesn't really happen … Okay, I'm sleeping, don't disturb me. "The Lake Immortal closed her eyes. Suddenly, she remembered that Man Roar couldn't understand such a difficult problem, it was more difficult than stuffing a needle into a planet.
"Okay, sleep well." Man Roar didn't disturb people who were sleeping.
He was used to it.
Big Brother and Second Brother were 'sleeping' every day, they only opened their eyes a few times a day.
Two lazy bums, they only knew how to sleep and were too lazy to eat.
Unlike himself, even if he fell asleep, he would dream of eating.
Just like that.
Time passed day by day.
Two months later, the Black Raven Fleet released all the goods of integrity. The glowing vortex was different, it was diffusing a seven-colored brilliance.
Tang Shidao and the Lake Immortal opened their eyes at the same time.
