Great Voyage: My Summoned Creatures Can Level Up While Idle

Hearing the sound of wings, Roya, who was steering the ship, turned around and saw a little seagull with a small backpack on its back land on the railing.

This is not the seagull from yesterday morning.

"An urgent island newspaper?" Luo Ya hadn't expected the Intelligence Bird Organization to have such a tactic.

He took out a silver coin and bought a newspaper from the surrounding islands from the little seagull.

He opened the black-and-white newspaper and immediately saw the headline:

Shocking! The Ghost of the Sea sinks, the Black Axe Pirate Gang is wiped out!

The newspaper also featured a black-and-white photograph of a three-masted sailing ship broken in two and slowly sinking into the sea, along with the silhouette of the Velvet ship receding into the distance.

"They managed to capture this? Do intelligence gulls carry alchemical cameras with them?"

Luo Ya muttered to himself and continued reading.

The report highlighted the deeds of the Black Axe Pirates, a pirate group even more ruthless than smaller pirate groups such as the Red Pearl Pirates and the Hurricane Pirates.

They are active in the Qingfeng Sea area around Gourmet Island and Bear Paw Island, plundering merchant ships and passenger ships.

The report also pointed out that the newly formed merchant ship White Dove on White Sand Island had been chased by the Black Axe Pirate Gang, but luckily escaped.

The following content describes how the Black Axe Pirates encountered a mysterious force and were completely wiped out.

As for who that mysterious force is, it remains undisclosed, leaving only various speculations.

After reading the newspaper, Luo Ya found it amusing and immediately shouted, "Sophia, look at this newspaper!"

An active rope was lowered from the mast, bundled up the newspapers, and delivered them to Sophia on the lookout tower.

After reading it carefully, Sophia also felt a sense of novelty, after all, it was the first time she had been in the newspaper.

"The Intelligence Bird organization is really something else; they actually managed to capture photos from that time," Roya exclaimed in amazement during dinner.

Sophia wasn't too surprised: "Prophetic beings possess the ability to capture the past or the future."

Roya took a bite of the dry bread and thought to himself that having superpowers meant being able to do whatever he wanted.

……

Six days later, the Velvet finally arrived near the food island.

As you approach the waters where Gourmet Island is located, the number of surrounding reefs and deserted islands suddenly increases.

The voyage these past few days has been boring and exhausting; Sophia looks quite haggard.

Roya is much better off than Sophia. Besides helmsmanship and lookout, he can also watch Ah-Dai and Misha run dungeons, or wear Captain John's hat.

It turned out that he had misunderstood Captain John. Sailing at sea was such a boring thing; one always needed to see something beautiful to purify the soul.

Luo Ya had already started thinking about going to the shipyard after arriving at the gourmet island to increase the speed of the Velvet, or to find some secret treasures that could increase the speed.

The biggest gain these past few days has been Ah-Dai and Misha.

Ah-Dai's level has increased to 16, and Misha's level has increased to 15.

Ah-Dai and Mi-Sha have ventured 1,500 meters into the poisonous swamp.

The first elite monster, the Swift Poison Lizard, can be defeated without taking damage.

We also successfully defeated the second elite monster, the "Robust Poison Lizard".

Currently, I'm locked in a close battle with the third elite monster, the Mighty Poison Lizard.

These three elite monsters are mutated by speed, constitution, and strength, respectively.

Luo Ya guessed that there should be three more elite monsters, the Poison Lizards, corresponding to the Charisma, Perception, and Intelligence attributes.

Sophia's level remains at 9, but she has begun preparing for her advancement by searching for black iron potions or recipes for the doctor's path.

……

The food carnival held on Food Island attracted a large number of merchant ships, tourist ships, and adventure ships.

Pirates were naturally among them; they would get involved in any lively place, as disgusting as cockroaches hiding in a house.

The island is home to a naval base, which sends warships to patrol the seas to deter pirates.

But it was easy for pirates to conceal their identities. They could simply remove the black flag, block the cannons, and change the names on the sides of their ships to fool the navy.

In addition, pirate ships could hide behind isolated islands or reefs, and then send out scouts or tame seabirds to spy on passing ships and select targets.

Experienced captains would sail along the routes patrolled by the navy, or travel in groups, forming fleets.

But Roya and Sophia were just two novices and didn't understand the intricacies of the situation.

The Velvet sailed carelessly toward Gourmet Island, neither with any companions nor within the navy's patrol routes, all of which signaled to the nearby pirates that a big fat sheep was coming soon.

Behind a rocky island, Golden Hook Pat learned of the Velvet's intelligence, but a look of hesitation appeared on his face.

The men gathered on the deck, their faces filled with anxiety, and shouted:

"Captain, let's pull off a job!"

"Captain, it'll be too late if we don't act now!"

"Yes, Captain."

A few days ago, Golden Hook Pat would have given the order without hesitation: "It's just a two-masted sailing ship! We're going to rob these small merchant ships!"

However, the mysterious force that defeated the Black Axe Pirates was also a two-masted sailing ship.

Based on the speed of the two-masted sailing ship, it should arrive in the next few days.

Annoyed by the noise, Golden Hook Pat roared for silence, instantly silencing the pirates.

His eyes lit up as he came up with a plan, and he immediately said, "I have a good way to leak information about this ship to Mad-Eye Chuck."

The Mad Eyes Pirates are a relatively new pirate crew that has recently gained some fame. They sail a two-masted sailing ship with thirty or forty men on board.

He acts arrogantly and ruthlessly.

Last time I unexpectedly encountered Mad-Eye Chuck, I was mocked, so this is a good opportunity for revenge.

If that two-masted sailing ship belonged to the force that wiped out the Black Axe Pirates, it would definitely have dealt with Mad Eyes.

If not, then rob Mad Eyes too, and let him know that on this vast ocean, might makes right!

The subordinates were very dissatisfied upon hearing this, but Golden Hook Pat, who had accumulated great prestige, still obeyed orders and deliberately leaked the news.

Soon after, the Mad Eyes Pirates' ship indeed charged toward the two-masted sailing ship.

Not long after, everyone learned that the Mad Eyes Pirates' ship had sunk, leaving them stunned and then showering Captain Pat with compliments.

"That was close!" Golden Hook Pat couldn't help but wipe away a cold sweat. That ship was indeed a disguise; how insidious.

……

Luo Ya, on the other hand, looked quite annoyed.

Not long ago, a two-masted sailing ship suddenly appeared in front of the Velvet. The ship was about ten meters longer than the Velvet and was full of pirates.

Roya then summoned Misha and fired a lightning spear as a greeting.

As a result, Misha's lightning spear hit the ship's ammunition magazine, which then caused the shells to explode, blowing the entire ship to pieces.

Those pirates suffered heavy casualties.

Luo Ya didn't even see who the captain was.

Roya didn't want to stop the ship to salvage the debris, as that would be a waste of time, so he continued sailing forward.

……

After sailing at sea for most of the day, the Velvet finally came into view of the coast.

Unlike landing on an uninhabited island, entering the bay port of the food island involves an extremely strict procedure and operation.
