  Chapter 1099 St. Griffin I

Above the endless ocean, a huge brig The sailboat is sailing fast with the help of the wind.

The surface of the hull is brightly painted, which has not faded from long voyages, and there is an ornate statue at the bow that does not match the wooden hull.

On the periphery of the statue, under the sunlight, there is a faint trace of pale-gold, and what is depicted on it is a ferocious giant beast.

The giant beast has the body of a lion and the wings of a giant eagle. The wings spread out, which completely protect the cabins on both sides. On the majestic body of a lion king, the sharp claw that stretches out seems to be able to be torn apart. All the wind and waves ahead provide shelter for the seafarers on board.

Like the giant beast on the statue, the "Saint Griffin" is the name given to this gigantic sailing ship.

A gust of wind hit, giving the ship sufficient sailing power, but on the sea all around, there was no wind and waves surging.

On the deck, several priests in robes are constantly casting spells in rotation, creating a strong airflow that propels the ship to sail.

The sails are bulging high, and at the mast where the mainsail is attached, a silhouette is climbing up along the rope ladder.

Under the strong wind, his skills were exceptionally strong, and the rope ladder was constantly swaying, but he was not affected at all. climb up.

Crawling on the rope ladder is no longer a difficult task for the person in front of him, and it has even become an instinct for him.

The sailor who climbed the mast was named Weili, a former apprentice of Knight Academy, he prefers his companions to call him Knight Weili rather than sailor, which is also what he is proud of .

Not far away, the sailor who watched all night stood on the high mast tower, noticed Weili's arrival, and waved his flag to him.

Arriving on the towering mast, Weili began his daily work,

maintaining the sail to ensure it was in good condition so that it would not be damaged for various reasons. At the same time as the damage, Weili seemed to have found something, and turned his attention to the special silhouettes standing on the bow.

A look of astonishment emerged from Wei Li's expression, he didn't expect that these noble beings would appear together on the deck of the bow.

These people standing on the bow, Weili will naturally not be ignorant. The one at the head is the captain of the "Saint Griffin", and he is also the whole ship, and one of the few with noble status. Lord Kane.

Before boarding the St. Griffin, Weili had already heard about Lord Kane's deeds. The most famous thing is that Lord Kane once persuaded him to surrender and recruited security as a formal professional. The Legendary pirate Sylvia, active in the Western Sea Territory, also earned his title.

Legendary pirate... Even just thinking about it, Willy felt a wave of fear in his heart, he couldn't imagine how Lord Kane persuaded him to surrender, perhaps it was the common cause between Lord Kane and the pirate. The thing that has, that is, the existence of the hero's will, helped him achieve this.

apart from this , Lord Kane is also the Queen's most staunch supporter. Weili has no doubt that when the time comes, he will sacrifice his life for the Queen without the slightest hesitation, just like a real Knight Like that.

On the deck, next to Lord Kane, stood an old man with white hair, a strong-looking man, and a man shrouded in a robe, watching. Unidentified human beings.

The old man was holding a heavy book in his hand, and was flipping through the book from time to time, comparing it with the scene in front of him. Even Lord Kane, who was beside him, showed respect to him. The other middle-aged man, frowned, looked at the sea in front of him, his eyes were erratic, and from time to time he put his head in the direction of the book in the old man's hand.

As for the other human being in a robe, his hands were folded in his cuffs, his head was slightly lowered, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Seeing this scene in his eyes, Weili was even more shocked. These people in front of him almost represented all the forces that came to the Saint Griffin during this voyage.

In Wei Li's impression, the old man was the leader of the draftsmen sailing with the ship, a real drafting master, who had a very high reputation in the entire continent.

This time, the old man and his apprentices joined in this voyage, and the route was accurately drawn on the existing map. After the voyage was completed, the record of the route would be enough. It is a very precious harvest.

Normally, Weili always sees the old man's apprentices, draws maps on the outer deck, and makes minor adjustments to the route. He has never seen the old man's own silhouette, but at this time , His appearance undoubtedly made Wei Li feel abnormal.

And the man dressed up in strong suits is a famous explorer. He has traced his footprints in many mysterious areas on the continent, and even some places that are so-called forbidden areas of life.

The fact that the explorer, who was supposed to appear in the bard's tale, was sailing with them, naturally explained to Willy how unusual the voyage was.

Weili recalled that according to the information given by the captain, the mission of their voyage was to explore the best route from the sea to the kingdom of elves, so as to promote more direct trade.

The level involved in this mission is also much higher than Wei Li imagined, and you can even feel the participation of the forces belonging to the country. There are not only those with prominent identities on board, but also a lot of strength Priests of deep and unmeasurable travel with the boat.

Before this, Weili had never seen the existence of priests, just listened to the rumors about these powerful sorcerers, not to mention the close contact with these powerful sorcerers like this voyage, the feeling of belonging The mighty power of magic.

In Wei Li's impression, the explorer dressed in strong suit should be regarded as the navigation consultant of this time in terms of identity.

Although there is already a cartographer on the St. Griffin, the explorer's assistance is not needed for the planning of the travel route, the calculation of the reef, and even the prediction of the wind. unknown things, still need advice from him.

The cartographers can deal with the routine problems of voyages, but in terms of experience with the existence of unknown creatures, they are no match for the explorer in front of them.

As for the last humanoid creature covered in robes, in Weili's impression, it should be the leader of the priests on the ship, a powerful high priest, even if all the other creatures on the ship All in all, they are not his opponents. The existence of this high-ranking priest is also the last guarantee for this voyage.
