Chapter 238: Various preparations
“I haven’t used this crazy tree mask for a long time. I didn’t expect that this time it solved a lot of troubles. Sure enough, every piece of equipment has its use. ...The rich status brought by VIP players is also very useful. It allows me not to worry about money and can easily solve many problems with gold coins..."
Wang Zhifan sighed a little at this moment. Originally, When the port inspector insisted on seizing their ship just now, he thought about simply breaking into the ship and leaving with force, but in the emergency, he suddenly thought of the magical mask he owned, and tried to After carrying out this operation of disguising and subcontracting port personnel, he did not expect that after a while of tossing, he was able to get through, and the pirate ship successfully obtained the qualification to enter the Princess Port normally.
As for why he took off his mask, removed his disguise, and returned through dreaming and breaking dreams, it was because he had just arrived at the Harbor General Administration and learned from another inspector to handle the ship's entry procedures. , I quickly found someone to ask for leave, and paid several gold coins to find a colleague of the original owner to help replace him.
After all, he knew very well that even if he relied on the Crazy Treeman mask to disguise himself as the inspector, he could not really become the other person. The longer he stayed in the original host environment, the more likely problems would arise, so he should just ask for leave and run away. This is the safest way, and he won't be able to stay in this harbor for long anyway. After the ship leaves, everything here will become insignificant.
"Steven Berg... I just asked about this person's name over there. It's a pity that I'm not familiar with the writing here, otherwise I would definitely be able to carry out more operations... and I need this guy's body as soon as possible. Dispose of it, chop it into pieces and throw it into the sea, or burn it directly to ashes?"
At this moment, Wang Zhifan was thinking about how to deal with it. The inspector's body in the big cabinet was looking at a somewhat unique brass nameplate in his hand. This was the identity certificate he obtained after searching the body after killing the other party not long ago. Unfortunately, he didn't recognize the words on it. He only figured it out after making some insinuations with another inspector on the boat. It was this experience that made him decide to take leave immediately to avoid further complications.
Waiting for Wang Zhifan to think of the safest way to dispose of the body, a middle-aged white man wearing a captain's hat quickly walked into the captain's room. He was the captain of the Sea Parrot. , I saw the incomprehensible look on the other party's face now, and said to Wang Zhifan, who was sitting on the captain's chair and had just put his hand in his pocket. :
"Sir, if what just happened involves any secrets of yours, I won't continue to ask questions, but we can enter the port now. What are you going to do next?"
This The captain of the Sea Parrot seemed to have figured out Wang Zhifan's strange behavior just now, and no longer wanted to ask for more information.
"My friend, it's not really a big secret. It's just that the time has not come to tell you yet... We will still follow the plan later."
Wang Zhifan quickly comforted the other party when he saw this. The follow-up activities at the port must rely on this person's assistance. The person who stayed here was a clone, which led to the situation where it was easy to misunderstand.
"Yes, I understand... Dare I ask if this secret is about your true identity?"
The captain of the Sea Parrot nodded after hearing this, his eyes full of curiosity in front of him. Wang Zhifan glanced at him, as if he wanted to see through his secret.
“You can think so.”
Wang Zhifan smiled after hearing this, as if what the other party guessed was true.
The two then chatted in the captain's room for a while, and then the sailors slowly drove the two ships into Princess Harbor and docked at a special berth.
At this time, it was time to disembark and deal with the follow-up matters. Wang Zhifan first entrusted the captain of the Sea Parrot to help him arrange for port professionals to repair the ship, and then went to the cabin and came to the pirates. Give them the final sermon.
"Everyone! I think you already know that we have now entered Princess Port. In the next few days, you can move freely in the port, but you have to return in three days. By then, you will spend time in the port. As long as the sales are not too exaggerated, I can be responsible for the reimbursement."
As soon as he finished speaking, the pirates standing in front of him breathed a sigh of relief, obviously fearing that he was still guarding him like at sea. On the boat, they didn't dare to escape at all.
"Old man, big man, come with me, I have something to say to you."
After announcing to ordinary pirates that they could move freely, Wang Zhifan then named the two pirate backbones he was focusing on.
In fact, these two people were often called to talk by him during the past few days at sea. Naturally, there was nothing to worry about at this time. They quickly followed him out of the cabin and came to the deck.
In the past, Wang Zhifan always chose to talk to them in the captain's cabin, but this time he changed his position and led them to the side of the ship and started immediately.
"Old man, what are you going to do in these three days?"
At this moment, Wang Zhifan walked to the side of the ship and looked out at the bustling port scene, speaking to someone without looking back.
"Old man, of course I will eat, drink and have fun for three days, and then I will come back to help the captain find the Forbidden Fruit Island."
Even though Wang Zhifan did not look back at him at this time, the old man still had a smile on his face. He said, his eyes seemed to be full of excitement for the free life in the port.
"Well, as long as you are willing to keep your promise."
Wang Zhifan seemed satisfied after hearing this. He did not continue to say anything to the old man, but then asked the other one without looking back. Crocodile Man Strong Man has the same problem.
"I plan to go to this port to buy some things first, and then return to the ship to pray."
The big crocodile man replied immediately behind Wang Zhifan, his tone was low and thick, with a timbre that was very different from ordinary humans.
"Well, I hope the Poseidon will bless you."
Wang Zhifan also seemed to be very satisfied with the alien's answer.
Then he turned around and said to the two people he valued more:
"I hope you all have a good time these three days, just like our future cooperation... You can go and do your own business now."
He didn't say too many words of warning and just let them leave. .
The one-eyed old man's eyes were slightly excited when he saw this, but he suppressed his emotions and turned around to leave smoothly. He didn't even forget to say goodbye to Wang Zhifan before leaving.
The strong crocodile man was not polite. He didn't even leave immediately. He turned and walked towards the entrance of the cabin ladder on the deck.
Soon, Wang Zhifan on the deck saw many pirates climbing over the side of the ship and climbing down the rope, entering the bustling Princess Harbor. The one-eyed old man was among them, and there seemed to be nothing unusual about it.
"I don't know how many of them will come back...but I can't let them go completely. I have to keep an eye on the key targets."
Wang Zhifan was thinking in his heart, and then released a dream self clone of his. He walked through the hull of the ship and sneaked underground, and began to follow the pirates who left.
He believes that these guys will not mess around in this port with a strong navy, otherwise they will be easily caught if their identities are exposed, but he is not sure how many of these people are willing to do anything for them. He served, and in his expectation, it was most appropriate for these people to control the pirate ship under his feet to the Sea of Storms, because they were most familiar with the ship, but no one knew what the outcome would be until then.
"Let's make some preparations and recruit a group of crew members at the port. Anyway, I have gold coins now and can afford a high salary. I will definitely be able to attract some talents." Wang Zhifan thought and left quickly. He grabbed the ship and arrived on the deck of the seagoing ship named Sea Parrot at the side berth.
There were no pirates on this ship that he needed to worry about, but the two brothers Chen Ming and Chen Can were waiting here. From the beginning to the end, the pirates did not know their relationship with Wang Zhifan. Such isolation was deliberately done by Wang Zhifan for their safety. .
"Brother Fan, the two of us don't feel very dizzy today. We probably won't get seasick again when we go to sea in the future."
As soon as he saw Wang Zhifan coming over, Chen Ming said to him immediately , saying that their bodies have basically returned to normal and they can help later.
"Very good. Now that your condition has recovered, you can participate in the following things."
Wang Zhifan couldn't help but nodded after hearing this. He actually had a headache taking care of the two sick people. , but now that they have adapted to the turbulence of the sea, they should be able to make some efforts in the stormy sea later.
"Brother Fan, we want to go for a stroll. This shouldn't be a problem, right?"
Chen Can on the side then asked him. Originally, things like getting off the boat and strolling around were very personal, but he has been Influenced by his brother, he is very cautious in his actions and will give priority to Wang Zhifan's opinion to avoid causing any trouble.
"Of course you can take a stroll...but again, you must pay attention to safety at all times."
Wang Zhifan thought for a moment before answering to the young man, and agreed that they should disembark and wander around.
“Brother Fan, aren’t you going?”
Chen Ming was a little strange after hearing this, because he could see that Wang Zhifan didn't seem to have any intention of visiting the port with them at this time.
"I still have a lot of things to do, such as ship repairs, recruiting people, etc. Let's talk about it when I have time..."
Wang Zhifan replied casually that he really couldn't leave at the moment. .
"In this case... then the two of us will help Brother Fan recruit people. I have interviewed many employees before and have recruitment experience."
After hearing this, Chen Can immediately had an idea. He replied in a hurry, voluntarily giving up the opportunity to hang out with his brother and lie down.
"That's how it should be. Brother Fan, you don't know how many things you have done along the way. The two of us have made no difference at all, so it's time to help."
Chen Ming also immediately agreed, he obviously I also realized that my brothers were too lazy in this dungeon. Although it was to avoid getting into trouble, it was not good to leave everything to Wang Zhifan to solve.
"Okay, I'm worried about how to recruit people. If you have experience, you can be in charge. I need experienced sailors and navigators...Salary is not a problem, you can pay more."
A few people then began to discuss specific recruitment matters. It was related to their subsequent trip to the Sea of Storms, so they couldn't afford to be careless. For this purpose, Wang Zhifan planned to gather three types of candidates: the pirates of the original ship, the people introduced by the captain of the Sea Parrot, and the people he personally recruited, so as to avoid a shortage of crew members. At the same time, it prevents any party from colluding to fool him.
While they are busy here, in other places in this copy world, other players who are also players are also acting independently, actively or passively planning to go to the Sea of Storms to find the Forbidden Fruit Island.
For example, the player who had a deep impression on them was now in big trouble, making it impossible for him to continue to lie flat.
"Brothers! Come for me! Grab all the treasures in this town!"
I saw the seaport town where the player first came, and at this time he came to the port out of nowhere Several pirate ships were seized, and then thousands of pirates rushed down from above and began to loot the port town with great force. The town's defense force was unable to cope with it at all, and the whole town fell into chaos.
"As expected, you are not allowed to lie down...I have only been comfortable for a few days...it is really troublesome to play a copy..."
In an ordinary hotel, I was sleeping peacefully on the bed The man soon discovered that there were a large number of enemies outside, which forced him to get up and prepare to leave.
His appearance is a bit strange, with long black hair and a thick beard. He looks a bit slovenly and "artist". He is the player who said at the beginning of the dungeon that he did not want to play and just wanted to lie flat.
"What is the target of this dungeon? In the ocean? What island?"
After he realized that lying flat would really attract the dungeon to target him, his face suddenly revealed He looked like he was thinking hard, as if he had almost forgotten the goal of clearing this copy.
“Let’s ask other players first.”
Feeling that he couldn’t figure it out, he was not discouraged. He even heard that the pirates outside had rushed to where he was. When the killings and looting started in the neighborhood, everyone was quite calm.
Amidst the roars, cries and screams coming from outside, his whole body suddenly changed violently, turning into a bird, flying out of the window, flying into the sky, and soon he was overlooking the entire experience. The town was plundered by pirates.
Suddenly, his figure flew to the ground, and then his body changed again, from a small flying bird to a three-meter-tall silverback gorilla in the blink of an eye. A dozen pirates beat them into meat pies and rescued three young men and women who had been fighting fiercely with the pirates.
"You are all players, right? Next, I will take you to clear this dungeon together."
The person then transformed from a silverback gorilla into a normal human form, and opened his mouth to the three still in front of him. The player who stayed in this town said.
“Are you...that person?!”
The three players were shocked when the gorilla suddenly appeared in front of them and turned into a human in the blink of an eye. However, when they saw that the human was the lying player at the beginning of the instance, they immediately exclaimed.
"It's me, don't waste time talking about this. If you don't take action, the dungeon will send stronger enemies. Let's leave quickly."
As he said this, he led these players towards He quietly touched towards the harbor, which was very different from the way he lay down while drinking and eating grilled fish in a tavern a few days ago.
