Ocean Lords: Start as a Fisherman

Chapter 221 Excuse me... Do you still think I'm teasing you? (6K)

When the guards at the port saw the lord coming, they immediately made enough space for him.

Lord Irving led the butler to the vacant space, looked up at the figure above his head and said.

"My friend, why don't you come down and have a gathering? I am Irving, the lord of this dock."

"If there's anything, we can talk in person."

Upon hearing this, Su Wang took action and walked step by step along the ice ladder to the port.

Many of the original guards were also dispersed by Lord Irving, leaving only a few to maintain order and drive away the onlookers.

When the distance between the two sides is shortened,
Lord Irving was the first to show a look of surprise on his face.

"Using two extraordinary powers at the same time?"

Due to the dim light and the long distance, he could only see the ice under the other person's feet.

But when the distance got closer, it was discovered that the support under the ice was actually provided by whirlwinds.

This ability to stand in the air is undoubtedly the result of the combined efforts of two extraordinary powers.

Moreover, the other party's proficiency in using and controlling these two extraordinary powers was completely beyond his imagination.

He had never heard of anyone possessing two extraordinary powers at the same time, let alone being able to use the extraordinary powers so subtly and flexibly.

This is just one discovery,
Lord Irving felt that this "stranger" was not simple, and could even be said to be very scary.

By the time the other party had landed and was slowly walking towards him, the surprise on Irving's face became even more intense.

Just because the person who came was too young,
He was wearing simple clothes, and there was no sign of anything unusual on his exposed body.

And just then, the young figure spoke.

"Hello, Lord Irwin."

"I hope you don't mind my uninvited visit."

"I am Lord Su Wang from Fool's Wharf. I came here to discuss a deal with you."

Hearing this, a hint of doubt flashed in Irving's eyes.

Fool's Pier?
How come I've never heard of it?
He knew all the nearby docks, and there was no dock named after the Fool among them.

Could it be a dock somewhere farther away?
But it was the rainy season.

There are also polluter fleets attacking the outer seas.
The dock lord from a distant land suddenly visited to discuss a deal, and Lord Irving found it strange no matter how he thought about it.

Not only was this strange, Lord Irving was even more curious about how the other party suddenly appeared at the Ice Snail Wharf.

"If you are not here to cause trouble, we welcome everyone to come to Bingluo Wharf."

"But my dear guest, why did you suddenly appear above my dock?

Besides, there's no registration information for you at the dock, so it's not polite to board the port quietly."

"It was just to lure me here. When a lord comes to register, I will welcome him with open arms. There is no need to cause such a commotion."

Su Wang immediately understood the meaning of the words of the middle-aged lord in front of him.

The first is a warning, and the second is accountability and oppression.

He seemed to want to take the lead in the subsequent conversation, and pointed out that this was his territory and his rules needed to be followed.

Su Wang also understood that his way of appearance was indeed too unusual and did not conform to normal procedures.

Unfortunately, the Wangxin can no longer dock like a normal ship, so this is the only way to go to the port.

However, Su Wang had no intention of apologizing or even bowing his head.

This time I came here,

We are here to solve the difficulties faced by this port, and there are other things that need to be discussed. If we give in now, we will be at a disadvantage.

"Lord Erwin, it's not that I don't follow the normal registration process.
But just as I was about to board the dock, your guards surrounded me with hostility. The problem must be on your side, right?"

Lord Irving frowned.

Unexpectedly, the lord who came suddenly to visit was so tough and started to blame him.

"Oh? We have arranged a guide fleet at the dock to meet any visiting ships. I haven't received any record of your ship visiting."

Su Wang shook his head when he heard that.

"Your fleet can't pick up my ship, but I believe the lighthouse should have reported on the visit."

When arriving at the dock, the Heart of Destruction did not activate its stealth coating, so it was naturally detected by the lighthouse scan.

A thousand-meter-long warship appeared in the jurisdictional waters. Su Wang didn't believe that this situation would not be reported.

After saying that, Su Wang pointed to the top of his head.

"My boat is just overhead,

I didn't land at the port secretly, but openly. It's just that your guards surrounded me and wouldn't let me register."

Hearing this, Irving subconsciously looked upwards in the direction the other party was pointing.

Due to the visibility affected by the rainy season, it was pitch black and nothing could be seen.

But at this moment, he suddenly discovered something unusual.

At present, within the port, which spans a thousand meters and has a depth of hundreds of meters, something seems to be missing.

That’s right! It’s Black Rain!

The black rain stopped?

But when he looked towards another area to the side, the lantern held by the guard clearly reflected the shadow of the falling black rain.

It's not that the black rain has stopped, but that something above this area is blocking the black rain.

The other party said that his ship was parked right overhead, and not long ago the lighthouse reported that a thousand-meter-long warship was parked in the port, and it happened that the black rain within a thousand-meter range was blocked by something.

All the information put together, even though Lord Irving silently said a thousand impossible things in his mind, his eyes still showed extreme shock.

Are thousand-meter warships real?
Or a thousand-meter-long warship that can sail in the sky?
How...how is this possible?!
Although Lord Irving kept repeating the words "Impossible!" in his heart,

But the thoughts deep in his heart told him that all this seemed to be true.

The reason why I can't believe it,
The reason is that the thousand-meter-long warships and warships that can sail in the sky,

In either of these two situations, if someone had said this to him normally, he would have laughed at the person and said he was crazy without hesitation.

There is a warship that is a thousand meters long and can sail in the sky. Who else can say this but a madman?
However, it seems that the person who is crazy now is himself.
Lord Irving's long-held universalist ideas collapsed at this moment...

...

Seeing that the other party didn't reply for a long time, but raised his head in a daze, Su Wang immediately spoke.

"Lord Irwin, I have already told you how I arrived. Now it's time to tell you why I'm here."

“Do you… need to hire me to help deal with the polluters?

Of course, this may require you to pay some 'insignificant' price."

Lord Irwin, who was experiencing the collapse of his ideas, came back to his senses when he heard the word "polluter".

"Polluter...polluter?"

Lord Irving's voice was a little dazed, as if he was in a trance.

When Su Wang saw the other person's appearance, he felt confused.

"Didn't you discover the polluter a long time ago?"

"I should give you a free piece of information. Tens of thousands of polluter ships are heading towards this dock."

Hearing the words "tens of thousands of polluter fleets", Lord Irving finally came back to his senses.

"What!?"

"Tens of thousands of polluter ships?!"

"Are you telling the truth?!"

After Lord Irwin asked three questions in a row, his expression quickly changed from confusion to fear.

Just now, it was just his belief that was challenged, but the polluter fleet could actually threaten his life and even the future of the entire dock.

Including the steward brought by Lord Irving, the followers behind him, and some guards nearby who heard the conversation, all showed expressions of panic.

Originally, only a small fleet in the outer waters had detected the presence of the polluter.

No one knows the specific situation, but everyone has a glimmer of hope.

However, after the truth was announced, an unspeakable fear of the polluter instantly swept over everyone present.

Although Lord Irwin was also terrified by this news,

But after all, he has been in charge of the dock for such a long time, so he still has the qualities of a ruler.

Lord Irving suppressed the panic in his heart and turned to give orders to the butler beside him.

"Turk, take people to maintain order at the scene and prevent the news from spreading further!"

Facing an attack from a fleet of tens of thousands of polluters during the rainy season, this news is undoubtedly a death sentence for the port.

And if this news continues to spread, I'm afraid there will be riots at the docks before the army of polluters arrives.

Lord Irving thought of this period,

Neither relocating the dock nor seeking help from other docks to organize reinforcements to fight against the polluters is possible.

The bitterness immediately hit the tip of the tongue and spread all the way to the heart.

He had heard of the news of the port being polluted and collapsed during the rainy season more than once.

However, I didn't expect that this time it would be Bingluo Wharf's turn.

At this moment, a voice sounded.

"Hey... I'm asking you!"

"Do you need to hire me to help deal with the polluters?"

Hearing this voice,

Lord Irving finally came to his senses from his shock and realized that there was someone in front of him who brought him intelligence.

When Irving heard the other party ask whether they should be hired to deal with the polluter, a glimmer of hope rose in his heart.

Could it be that the Lord of Fool's Wharf is willing to provide support?

Irving, who felt like he was drowning, suddenly felt like he had grabbed a straw and hurriedly asked.

"Um... Lord Su... Lord Suwang, are you saying that you are willing to send a fleet to support us?"

Su Wang immediately shook his head.

"It's not that we support you, but whether you are willing to hire me or not, you need to pay me."

Although Su Wang will not sit idly by and watch the dock being eroded by polluters in the end, isn't there still time to turn the problem around?

I can help, but there will always be expenses when helping, right?

It would take a lot of resources to deal with the fleet of tens of thousands of polluters, and it would be a waste of money to pay for it ourselves.

There is a port that is currently facing threats from polluters and is unable to resolve the issue.

Then he provides the labor and the terminal pays, isn't that the best of both worlds?
Whether it was taking advantage of the situation to rob or making money from the war, Su Wang would never do anything that would lose money.

And after hearing Su Wang's words,
Lord Irving suddenly felt a little confused.

What does it mean to hire him?
It should be the fleet that hired him, right?

No matter what, as long as the other party can help deal with the polluter, anything is fine.

"Yes! Yes! As long as Lord Su Wang is willing to help solve the polluter problem, the reward can be negotiated!"

Irving is now at his wit's end. The attack of tens of thousands of Polluter ships is simply beyond his ability to handle.

Since this special visitor has made such a solemn promise, he can be hired to help deal with the polluter.

Irving had no choice but to give it a try.

Su Wang was delighted to see that the other party agreed so quickly without even asking for the conditions.

With someone paying for it, I can now work without any hesitation. "Ahem... If that's the case, then it's settled."

"I'll take care of the polluters, and you'll cover all the expenses incurred in the battle. I think you have no objection, right?"

Irving nodded quickly.

"Of course, but how many warships can your dock recruit and assemble? When will support arrive?"

"I can also provide 3500 warships from Bingluo Wharf to participate in the battle."

Su Wang pondered for a moment after hearing this.

Qinglong Wharf can dispatch at most one or two hundred warships.

"About 2 ships."

Lord Irving's excitement froze upon hearing this.

How much? How much did you say?
One or two hundred ships?
Are you kidding me?

"Lord Su Wang, please stop joking now.
I have already promised to bear the cost of the battle, and if we can survive this crisis, I will definitely offer you a generous gift."

"Please also truthfully inform me of the scale of our combat force so I can prepare resources."

Su Wang nodded when he heard this. It was indeed not appropriate to falsely report combat power at this time.

Immediately, he called Ji Boda.

After the call was connected, Su Wang quietly asked about the number of ships that could be arranged at the dock.

After confirmation, Su Wang said seriously and solemnly.

"Confirmed. 142 warships and 200 transport ships."

"I hope that Lord Erwin will pay for the hiring of these warships in addition to the war expenses.
The transport ship is used by me for transportation, so it won't be counted as your hiring fee."

These fleets belong to Ji Boda,

As a qualified boss, Su Wang also has to fight for some benefits for him.

When Lord Irving saw the solemn and serious expression of the young man in front of him, his face froze again.

Why does it feel like the other person is not joking?

142 warships, less than one twentieth of the fleet at his dock. How can this be considered reinforcement?
And what about those 200 transport ships?

A surge of anger at being teased and deceived suddenly struck Lord Irving's heart.

"Lord Su Wang, you are also a human being after all.
I thank you for bringing me the news about the polluter, but is it too much to tease me like this at this time? "

When Su Wang heard this, he was stunned.

Why are you suddenly angry?
Am I teasing you?

You are a grown man, and I am teasing you because I am bored.

Could it be that I didn't explain it clearly enough?

At this time, Lord Irving continued to speak angrily.

"With such a small number of reinforcements, how can we solve the crisis of polluters?"

"If you just wanted to come here to watch the joke, now that your goal has been achieved, please leave my dock. You are not welcome here."

When Su Wang heard this, he immediately laughed out of anger.

I came here specifically to help you deal with the polluter, but you chased me away.

If you weren't a financial backer and there weren't so many dock residents who needed to be saved, he would have just walked away in disdain.

"Why do you say I'm teasing you?"

"Since I came here on purpose, I naturally came with the determination to solve the problem."

Lord Irving's expression turned even uglier when he heard this, and he said in a cold voice.

"You said there were tens of thousands of Defiler ships, but then you also said there were only a hundred or so warships coming as support."

"Aren't these remarks treating me, Irving, like a fool?"

After hearing this, Su Wang took a heavy step forward, and the aura of a saint suddenly burst out.

Lord Irving at this moment,
Suddenly, I felt that the young man in front of me seemed to have become extremely tall. Although his body shape had not changed, it was as if I was facing a giant.

The guards and attendants around Erwin were all terrified.

His eyes involuntarily turned to the figure standing on the dock, and an inexplicable feeling of worship arose in his heart.

Under the gaze of many people, Su Wang spoke to Irving word by word.

"First, I've said it more than once. I'm the one hiring the polluters, not the fleet!"

"Second, if you say you don't believe it, I can show you. You don't have to say I'm teasing you."

After saying that, Su Wang spoke directly to Tia in the warship above.

"Tia, aim for full coverage of the clear waters, all ships open fire!"

At the same time as the order was given, Su Wang also activated the battleship ability brought by Ipark - charged rage.

The next second, a dazzling light suddenly burst out above the port.

The pier, which was originally only illuminated by a few lights, suddenly became bright.

This change also made Irving and the onlookers at the port turn their eyes away from Su Wang and look up at the place where the light burst out.

Two hundred meters above the port, nearly a hundred light balls emitting blue and white light appeared, illuminating the thousand-meter-long giant warship that had been hidden in the darkness.

Before Irving and the onlookers at the port could recover from the huge size of the kilometer-long ship.

Boom! Boom! Boom…!
A series of exciting roars resounded through the sky, and the air waves generated by the shaking air were so strong that even some ordinary residents in the port below were blown off their feet.

But this is not over yet,
Almost at the same time as the roar sounded, the waters hundreds of meters away from the port suddenly lit up with a white, thunderous light.

Each repulsive cannon shot caused a collapse of the field within a hundred meters, and Tia's ability bonus caused thunder to fall from the sky.

The simultaneous firing of 100 repulsion cannons instantly covered an area of ​​ meters of water, and the dazzling white light illuminated the entire sea area.

Normally, it would take several seconds to charge after firing a cannon salvo.

But Su Wang also activated the charging rage ability this time,

The effect is that at the expense of a period of inability to fire, the ship's cannons enter a violent overload mode, ignoring any conditions and violently firing for 1 minute.

This also caused the repulsion cannon, which originally fired intermittently, to become a repulsion machine gun.

Repulsive electromagnetic bombs were fired out like beads, detonating one after another on the sea surface.

In just a few seconds, as many as 5 repulsion cannons were fired.

The thunder that fell from the sky alone was like the wrath of heaven.

The collapse force field created by the superposition of 500 repulsion cannons detonating in a short period of time formed a scorching sun with an impact of ten thousand meters on the sea surface.

The ten thousand meter sea surface was hollowed out by the collapse force field to a depth of nearly a thousand meters, and the surrounding sea water was rolled up like a tsunami.

After a few seconds, the collapse force field dissipated, and the surging sea water flowed back to fill the large empty area that had been dug out.

Without the light of the collapse field, the sea surface returned to the darkness it should have during the rainy season.

However, the horrific scene just now has been completely engraved in the hearts of everyone who saw it.

After a few seconds of deafening roar, silence replaced it, so quiet that the sound of black rain falling on the sea and the ground became clearly audible.

Throughout the port, everyone was like a puppet without a spring, standing still in a daze.

When people see something that causes surprise, they will marvel.

But if the shock has exceeded the limit of what the brain can accept, then there is only silence.

the reason is,

The brain is currently processing information that it cannot understand at all, and has no spare brainpower to control speech or even any part of the body.

Lord Irwin also remained motionless at this moment, his gaze still fixed on the place where the "divine power" dissipated.

Even though the light has dissipated and the roar has stopped, not even the echo can be heard.

But in Lord Irving's eyes and ears, it seemed that all this was still happening.

Until this moment, a calm voice slowly sounded.

"Excuse me... do you still think I'm teasing you?"

The sound was not loud, and even felt as if it was being drowned out by the sound of heavy raindrops.

However, this gentle question was like a thunderclap exploding in Lord Irving's ears.

Lord Irwin struggled to turn his gaze away from the darkness in the distance and turned back to the young figure nearby.

He swallowed the little saliva in his mouth to moisten his throat, which had been a little dry from being open for too long and blown by the sea breeze.

Although he was ready to speak, Lord Irwin couldn't utter a word at this moment.

He could only stare blankly at the "giant" figure, not knowing what to do.

Seeing his reaction, Su Wang knew that the purpose of showing his "means" had been achieved, so he restrained his saintly aura and returned to being like an ordinary person.

I have to waste another 500 million fish coins. I have to make a note of this.

Su Wang decided to record this expenditure in the final war consumption and let this "financial backer" bear the responsibility.

I don’t know if it’s because the oppressive aura has disappeared, or if Lord Irving’s brain has already processed the information.

At this moment, he finally felt that he could speak.

He was seen bending his body slightly, speaking with difficulty, almost in the manner of a subordinate.

"Please put aside your past grudges and save Bingluo Wharf."

"Any request you make, I, Irving, will do my best to implement it."

With that scene just now,
Even a fool would understand that tens of thousands of polluter ships are just ants in front of this being.

As for the identity of this person, Irving no longer dared to have any idea of ​​exploring it.

A kilometer-long warship capable of sailing in the air, with the use of various supernatural powers.

All these irrationalities become reasonable in front of this existence.

...

Seeing the other party's attitude, Su Wang finally dissipated the anger in his heart.

"No problem. As long as the fish coins are available, I guarantee you won't see any Polluter ships at the dock."

After hearing these words, Lord Irving finally felt relieved.

As long as the person in front of you can let go of past grudges, it doesn't matter how humble you are.

The worries that had been suppressed in my heart for days suddenly dissipated at this moment.

And at this moment, the young voice sounded again.

"By the way, the 500 million fish coins from those shots just now should be added to the war expenses."

“Also, I should use another method to deal with the polluters, which might be a bit expensive.

"If you dare to default on your debt, haha..."

Upon hearing this, Lord Irving broke out in a cold sweat.

Is this 500 million fish coins?

He suddenly felt that his little savings at the dock might be lost...
