Heavenly Dao Formula

"Measuring value."

And the result of disposing of captives depends on the value itself.

The captain couldn't help thinking of his wife, two children and large farmland far away in the western sea. If he's gone, these things will be...

Be occupied by others!

That was a scene he absolutely didn't want to see.

"You are from the Holy Wing Country, but you are working for the mainlanders here?"

"Efficacy? Will you treat the mercenaries as your servants?" Olina sneered, "Next, you don't want to say, for the sake of Oceania, you should give me a hand? At sea, you don't regard the ships of the Holy Wing Islands as your own?"

"That was done by the pirates..." Halfway through the speech, Ferlin couldn't continue. The pirates did the trick, but Natatin did a lot of things like providing route information and even sending officers to guide the battle. .

For the competition of maritime trade, the open and secret struggles among the oceanic countries have become increasingly fierce.

This is no secret in the eyes of the nobles.

"Okay... what do you want to ask?"

Fei Lin comforted himself silently, he was not disloyal to His Majesty, but was forced by the situation, not to mention that he had tried his best to deal with it.

Who made this side too barbaric, ignoring the rules of the ocean area at all.

"Let's talk about your fleet first. The more detailed the content, the better." Olina said calmly.

This is the new task Xia Fan gave her.

And there is also an additional fee.

After learning about Chi's treatment, she hinted to Xia Fan obliquely that she could also sing, but unfortunately the latter did not agree with her self-recommendation, but only promised that she would consider adding some extra tasks for her to do in the future. Although the goal was not achieved, she was not without gain.

Now Olina has become more and more aware of the habits of this treacherous Central Plains person.

Compared with passive acceptance, he appreciates those who take the initiative to negotiate; and as long as he opens his mouth to agree, there are very few slips of the tongue.

The interrogation of Captain Nattating this time can be regarded as one of the results of the negotiations.

She didn't mind seeing the imperial people in a panic at all.

And also in order to save the family, it is much safer to interrogate the captive than to take the risk of finding out the whereabouts of the Holy Grail.

"These three ships are the capital ships of the Fourth Fleet. The main task of going to the Western Sea Region is to hunt down those fleeing elves. The commander of the fleet is the Governor of the Western Sea Region, Mr. Tural Nath, who is fighting with you on the ship. If you kill him, the empire will definitely not let it go. Although this place is far from the ocean area, Nattatin does not lack strong ships and sharp guns... If you leave me to explain, it is said that your lord refused to surrender and fought bravely. Death, there may still be a slight chance for things to turn around, after all, sacrifices on the battlefield are inevitable..."

The captain gave a general account of the fleet information, and added his own hints. Even if the former didn't ask him, the first mate and helmsman who were dragged out could still talk about it. Only if he increased his weight, could he hope to avoid going the same way as his colleagues.

"That's all? Nothing else?" Olina raised her eyebrows.

"Uh... I usually stay in the ocean area, and this time I came to the western sea area to obey orders. It is the first time to cooperate with the governor, and I don't know much about the affairs here." Filin racked his brains and said, "Yes Already... His Excellency Governor has also established a docking base on an island not far from the mainland, and the local kingdom is called Dongsheng. I heard from the Governor that if the empire intends to open up the mainland, it can be used as a springboard."

It turns out that Natatin has reached out so far, Olina thought, this is valuable information. After all, other kingdoms are still at the stage of sending ambassadors, while the empire is already building frontier ports.

"So..." she lowered her voice, "Tural is also for the Holy Grail?"

The captain's expression froze, obviously this was not what he wanted to talk about. But under the aggressive gaze, he could only nod slightly, "I don't know much about it, but I heard from the mage that the Holy Grail is not a gift that belongs exclusively to Oceania. It may appear in any corner of the world. The Continent and the Southern Sea of ​​Twilight, or any other areas that we don't know about, all include...even, the Black Barrier Area."

"Black barrier area? What is that?" Olina frowned.

This is considered a secret, but it's not such an important secret. After weighing the pros and cons, Flynn Carter decided to tell it. Most of the upper layers of the Holy Wing Islands have heard about it, but the woman in front of her didn't know it, "The border of the world, the end of the sea, or the land of nothingness. Anyway, that area is very strange, I I haven’t been there personally, but some people in the fleet have been close to the black barrier area, saying that the sea water there tends to be still, and the closer to the end, the slower it gets, and after crossing the black barrier, there is nothing, as if the earth is empty Same."

"How big is it?" Dragon Girl asked subconsciously one after another, "Has anyone ever gone in?"

"Water can't get in, and neither can humans. Of course... there may be some special passages in it. As for the scope..." Ferring paused, "Boundless."

"How is it possible?" Olina immediately questioned, "The world is round, as long as you walk in one direction, you will naturally find its boundary."

"Of course I understand this truth." The captain sighed, "But the man said that no matter how far the expedition team went, they couldn't find the place where the black barrier was closed, and they couldn't return to the original point. That's why some people call it the sea. The end of it, not just a barrier."

It was a contradiction, Olina sensed. If it is truly boundless, then there should be many ships discovering its existence. The Holy Wing Islands can also be regarded as one of the frequent visitors to open up the ocean, and such strange things should not be missed.

"Which sea area is the black barrier you are talking about...?"

"In the area of ​​the Permafrost Sea, only the Imperial Navy has the courage to go deep into that polar region." The captain said quite proudly.

This is interesting but useless information. Olina raised one leg, and the only thing she can learn from it is that in order to get in touch with the Holy Grail, the Natatyn Kingdom has invested much more energy than other competitors.

There shouldn't be much else to know about it.

The other party is just an ordinary person, not a Natatian nobleman.

In terms of the value of intelligence, this person is obviously not as good as the dead governor of the Western Sea Region.

Thinking of this, Olina asked the last question, which was also the key to Xia Fan's commission, "As you can see, Jinxia City does not have a fleet in the traditional sense. The rulers here hope to change this. They have technology and resources , the only thing is that I lack some experience in traveling at sea..."

The captain's heart trembled, and he instantly understood the meaning of the other party's words.

"It's absolutely not, I can't train an army for a competitor to the empire. If word gets back to Siristi, my family will all be hanged!"

"You can even train pirates, but you can't accept the employment of the mainland kingdom?" Olina shrugged, "First of all, this job is paid, and after imparting experience, your war crimes can be pardoned. Wherever you want to go, Jinxia City will not stop you."

"I can't leave this risk to my family..." Fei Lin clenched his fists.

"Really?" Olina suddenly remembered what happened to her in the dungeon of Shangyuan City. What did that treacherous Central Plains man do? "Then Mr. Captain, goodbye..." She stood up regretfully, turned around and walked out of the cell.

"Wait, wait!" Feilin quickly called to stop her.

"Huh?" Olina stopped, "You know your value lies in your being a captain, but not now."

"Ahem, what I mean is that the experience of sailing is varied and inexhaustible, and it is difficult for the captain to remember all of them. Therefore, in order to avoid forgetting, everyone will write these experiences into the logbook or make them into a manual to record them. ...As for them being captured along with the ship, it was definitely not the captain's original intention, and it does not mean that the captain has surrendered to the enemy, do you understand what I mean?" Filin said cautiously.

"I see." Olina slightly raised the corners of her lips, "...I will pass your exact words on to the relevant person in charge."
