Chapter 83 Bad City

When I heard my inquiry, Captain Donovan shook his head and said, "Originally, I planned to take you towards the direction of the Ice Continent first, and then turn to find a port when I see the edge of the continent. But now that our speed has increased, we should just take a little more road and go directly to a nearby port city to hire a pilot named Ruth, and then fly straight to the port on the Ice Continent. This is the fastest and safest."

"Okay, then please point me in the direction."

"OK."

After changing the course, we flew for less than an hour and saw the port. According to Captain Donovan, at their previous speed, it took about a day and a night to reach, but fortunately they dragged such a heavy battleship and arrived in less than an hour. This speed was really exciting.

The warship also caused a commotion when it landed in the port. After all, the warship coming from the air was pulled by two dragons, which was really scary. Fortunately, because the two dragons pulled the warship, everyone knows that this is a dragon that is more friendly to humans. After all, those bloodthirsty dragons will not help you pull the ship, and it is almost the same to destroy the ship.

The warship landed outside the port, and then the plague and luck let go of the warship and took off by themselves. The warship was controlled by Xiaolongnu on the ship with gravity to control the navigation. Anyway, when entering the port, it was only sailing at a low speed, which was very easy for Xiaolongnu.

The warship automatically sailed to an empty berth without any sail lifting in the surprised eyes of a group of ship owners, and then docked. When the springboard on the ship was extended, the tax collectors on the coast here did not even dare to come forward to collect taxes.

Captain Donovan did not resist this at all. In her opinion, she could use our deterrence to increase the reputation of the empire. After all, this is the first time among those empires that can use dragons to pull ships.

After the springboard was set up, several sailors came down first to fix the ropes, while Captain Donovan and her two adjutants walked off the battleship one after another.

Seeing the tax collector on the pier, Captain Donovan took the initiative to walk over, then handed the other party a bag of gold coins and said in the other party's shocked gaze: "Please contact us for the supply matter, this is the reward."

The other party suddenly reacted as if he was woken up by someone and started to enthusiastically say that he would do it, and then sent us out of the dock like a pug. There are actually many reasons for the other party's attitude. First, this is a warship, and it belongs to a very powerful empire. And they are just a neutral port. So as the tax collector here, he is not qualified to offend the captain of this first-class battleship. Especially when the other party is so young and still a woman, this can only show that the other party has a fair background.

It's scary. It's probably the children of the high-ranking families of the Empire. The second point is that the warship was pulled by two dragons and flew over. This is a symbol of strength. It means that the other party is the kind of person who can't offend even if he is penniless. The last point is the money issue. The gold coins that Captain Donovan gave him definitely exceeded the supply and docking fees. At this time, the more money means that the rest is a tip, so the tax collector is so polite. He wished he could lie down and be loyal to the other party.

With the help of the tax collector, we successfully left the port, but this port city is really not very large, and unlike the main game map, the environment here is closer to reality. Although there are many port cities in the main game map, those cities will definitely have a strong magical or mythical style unless they are small fishing villages. Anyway, the roads in the city are very beautifully built, and there are a lot of decorations, which look the same as the dream country. However, the port here refers to the environment of the real port city in the medieval period, and it is not that kind of super-large port, but just a medium-sized port. Although its area is large, infrastructure construction can be described as a mess.

The messy piles of goods in the port area and the wooden trestles that were about to rot looked so dilapidated, but there were still many people. If it weren't for the fact that our group was too clean and the strong aura forced people around to get close, it would have been a bit of effort to squeeze out from that place.

After leaving the port, the city may not be much better than the port area. Let’s not talk about the narrow roads, the black mud-like thing on the ground looks like a mixture of animal feces and real mud. It is not only disgusting, but also has a strange smell. When Zhenhong and I walked, we began to become strange unconsciously. The purpose was to not want to throw ourselves all over the mud. As for roses and gold coins, Christina simply refused to go down the ground. In order to prevent them from stepping on these disgusting things, I could only summon Yeying and let all three of them sit on it.

The appearance of Yeying obviously made Captain Donovan react very much. Unlike the previous giant dragons, Yeying's basic form is similar to that of horses, and people in this era often see horses, so when they see Yeying, Captain Donovan obviously had both eyes glowing. Yeying's tall body and the small details that were different from real war horses all made Captain Donovan envious. The most important thing is Yeying's suspension ability, which is really a good mount for a captain. You should know that it is inconvenient for the captain to travel between various ports and bring his own mounts. After all, horses are useless at sea and cannot be put into the water. However, if you don't bring horses, it will be inconvenient to dock in ports or non-port areas. Therefore, the significance of a flying horse captain Donovan is too great.

"Is this your mount? What a beautiful horse!" Captain Donovan couldn't help asking.

I held Christina and the others on the horse one by one and said, "Yes, his name is Yeying, but he is not a horse, but a nightmare."

"Nightmare?" Captain Donovan was obviously startled. "You said this is a nightmare? That kind of monster that can eat people?"

"Who told you that Nightmare eats people?" Ye Ying suddenly said this, frightening Captain Donovan so much that he took several steps back.

"He can talk?" Captain Donovan asked in surprise.

"I said he is a nightmare and not a horse. Is it strange to speak?"

Captain Donovan also reacted and nodded, "That's right. That... I want to ask..."

"I won't transfer it." Before Captain Donovan finished speaking, I interrupted her directly. "First of all, Ye Ying is my partner, not a slave, so I will never resell it. Secondly, as a nightmare, Ye Ying is very aggressive. If your strength cannot suppress him, he will not listen to you, but will resist you. Believe me, if you see Ye Ying in a wild state, you will not think he is a mount."

Captain Donovan is not a fool either. After a moment of thinking, he understood what I mean. After all, the legend of Nightmare exists here. She knew that this kind of legendary creature cannot be touched casually, just like the giant dragon before. Although he was seriously helping us pull the ship under my command, if the wild dragon was broken, their fleet would not be enough for others to fight.

"Okay, don't think about mounts anymore. If you can safely send us to the Ice Continent, I can give you a mount that suits you. I promise that is the most suitable mount for you."

"What kind of mount is it?" Captain Donovan asked with his eyes lit up.

"Keep a little surprise," I said, "You will see it. It's definitely for you."

Actually, what I plan to give to Captain Donovan is a monster called Jade Beast. This thing is not a monster, but a monster, but it is very surprising, with a good personality and basically does not attack species that are unexpectedly prepared. Their food is all kinds of fish, so it is quite safe for humans. This creature is much larger than a horse, and the body part is nearly two meters long, with a tail nearly four meters long behind, and a neck more than one meter long in front and a head five or six times the size of a horse's head.

The overall shape of this creature is a bit like a combination of horses, tigers and fish. Its head and neck are like horses, but its body and limbs are like tigers, and its tail is a bit like a dragon's tail. Not only is it long, but its tips also have tail fins that can stretch and contract. The guy's ears are not on the top of his head, but on the side of his head, it grows into two structures that look like lateral fins, and the real ear holes are behind it. In addition, the whole body is covered with scales, and there are some velvet-like hairs on the neck and the tip of the tail. Moreover, the guy has many colors all over his body, which looks like a rainbow, very beautiful. Of course, this thing itself is meat-eating, and the limbs and body are close to the tiger structure, so it not only has strong claws, but also has sharp fangs. Its combat power is not too strong, but it is much more powerful than ordinary beasts. At least the kind of sea beast they use is not as powerful as this thing.

In fact, Jade Beasts are just one of the ordinary guild equipment for us. Our guild has equipped the navy with a lot of this stuff. The main reason is that this thing is large in number and easy to catch. They can become the best partners of players and show considerable combat power. The most important thing is that they are actually amphibious creatures mainly aquatic, and have very good endurance. They can move at high speed in the water for a long time, and are even much faster than most mechanically powered ships.

As a captain, this creature that can move at high speed in the water is naturally the most suitable mount for Captain Donovan. Moreover, the speed of this thing is not slow after getting ashore, at least much faster than a horse. It is not much worse to run a cheetah, and it has good endurance, so it sprints at full speed for more than an hour without stopping.
