Super Evolution Base Island

Chapter 427: Captive

Whoosh!

After the other party saw the shooting here, someone fell into the sea after being shot.

Seeing that the two sides exchanged fire, these natives would naturally not be polite, so the crossbowmen also attacked here.

Manlu and Drizzt were closer to the cabin, and they quickly hid in the cabin when they saw the opponent shooting back arrows, and the other scholar-type figures also ran to the cabin to hide.

call out! boom!

For a while, there were gunshots and the sound of the crossbow shooting out. Some people were injured and howling, and some were still resisting.

The situation got a little out of control, and when the adventurers on the ship shot at the natives behind the bunker, people kept getting shot and lost their combat effectiveness.

The aborigines on the opposite ship seemed to be very fierce. Since there was no absolute advantage in numbers and armed forces, the aborigines boarded the scientific research ship.

I saw those people holding knives and guns. After boarding the ship, the adventurers on the ship had almost no power to parry. They were quickly put on their necks with knives.

The helpless scientists such as Manlu and Drizzt watched the people on board being captured by the natives but had no way to rescue them.

Even in the end, scientists like Drizzt and Manlu were captured by the natives after breaking through the cabin door.

"Gentlemen, I think this is a misunderstanding. We absolutely did not mean to offend you. We just probed the environment here and broke into your territory by mistake..."

After the ship's men were taken prisoner, Drizzt struggled to explain.

But the other party didn't listen to what he said, tied them up with ropes, and pushed them onto the dilapidated big ship.

But on the wrecked galleon. Manlu and Drizzt saw some products of different periods of ancient feudal civilization and modern civilization.

Some things are even very old. From their eyes, they can naturally see that they are precious cultural relics and antiques, but these aboriginal people use them as tools for daily use.

All Manlu,

Even after the wounded were captured and taken onto the other side's boat, the natives didn't say anything to them. Just use the rope to drag the boat they drove, and then sail towards the center of this sea area.

Manlu and Drizzt were bound together.

When they looked at the situation on the boat and the natives with cold expressions, Manlu couldn't help but whispered: "Drizzet, I think these natives should have their own civilization, since this sea area is their territory. They It was found that we did not launch an attack directly after breaking in, which shows that they understand etiquette..."

Cui Si Te nodded and said, "You're right. These aborigines captured us and didn't abuse us. They don't look very cruel. Although one of them spoke a language we couldn't understand, the other party seemed It's just a questioning tone, and when you look at the clothes they are wearing, don't you feel that the more you look at them, the more familiar they are?"

But another old man next to him suddenly answered: "Manlu, Drizzt, I know some of the origins of these people's clothes, it seems to come from the ancient feudal Ming Dynasty clothing style of Huaguo, I once read a Huaguo I've seen it in the movie. So I was very impressed.

Look at the crossbows, bows and arrows they use, as well as spears and other weapons. These are also unique shapes of the ancient Huaguo. Then let's think about what the other party said before, does it sound a bit like the local dialect of the ancient Huaguo, that is to say, they probably spoke Chinese, so if we communicate with them in Chinese..."

After hearing these analyses, Manlu and Drizzt's eyes lit up. I feel very reliable.

Drizzt often deals with scientists from all over the world, so he naturally knows some Chinese. So I tried to use Chinese to look at the person in front who looked like a Westerner, although his appearance looked similar to them. But wearing ancient oriental costumes, the strange human said: "Sir, can you understand what I'm saying?"

What shocked and surprised Drizzt and all Westerners was that this native soldier with a Western face in ancient Hanfu actually said to them in English with a strong English accent: "Shut up, don't Don't speak until you reach your destination!"

All the captives could understand these words naturally, and everyone was dumbfounded for a while.

Manlu is also from England. At this time, he was a little excited and had a strong desire to understand these people and the unknown magical continent: "You, you can speak English, are you from England? People, how did you get here, can we talk, we have no malicious intentions, you see, we are all tied up by you, we can't threaten you..."

However, Manlu's enthusiasm did not impress the native soldier guarding them. He saw that the other party was very disciplined, but after warning, he never said a word.

Manlu wanted to communicate with these indigenous people in various ways, but the other party ignored him, making all his enthusiasm hit the cold stone.

Even so, as a prisoner, Manlu did not have these awareness, he was still trying to use some topics to interest the native soldier with a western appearance.

Manlu considered that these people had lived in this mysterious sea space for many years, and judging from the utensils, ships, and clothing characteristics they used, the living standards of these people were at least behind the current level. More than seventy or eighty years.

But since the aborigines with western ancestry may have become mixed blood, the characters who came here a long time ago all entered here by mistake during the era of great navigation or World War II.

So after thinking of this, Manlu took the initiative to talk about some allusions of the West in the age of great navigation, as well as some historical celebrities and famous navigators mentioned.

However, when Manlu inadvertently mentioned the name of a person who disappeared mysteriously, he suddenly saw that the aborigine's expression suddenly became a little nostalgic, and when there was respect and miss in his eyes, Manlu Lu's heart moved, so he asked him what kind of relationship he had with that person.

What Manlu didn't expect was that. The native soldier finally spoke, mentioning that he is the descendant of the mysteriously disappeared navigator, and they have lived here for nearly a hundred years.

Manlu was shocked when he heard this, and at the same time he felt that it seemed to be a good start. After finding a breakthrough point, they chatted with Manlu on this topic, and asked about their destination from the side.

And this native seemed to be no longer repulsed by Manlu because of his ancestors, so he told Manlu and others that the place they were going to was called Octopus Island, and they were taken as captives. To be questioned by the owner of the island.

After hearing this information, Manlu and others were very shocked.

In this mysterious sea area, there is indeed an island, and there is indeed a civilized human life on that island, and the owner of the island is actually a descendant of a royal family from a country that once perished. After they settled here, they took in some people who were lost in this sea area to live here, and established a political system.

However, this native of Western descent only revealed the most basic situation of Octopus Island and the Octopus Island, and then stopped talking.

But just the most basic information, it shocked people like Manlu very much.

However, just after these people have not completely digested the information. Everyone heard a vibration, and then the boat stopped.

After the boat stopped, the natives brought Manlu and the captives onto the deck. Manlu and other people from modern civilization finally saw the new continent hidden behind the mysterious veil.

I saw that it was an island with a very beautiful environment, and the area seemed to be very large. The ecological environment on the island belonged to the original ecology.

What makes these people even more curious is that they also found some buildings on this island, but the style of those buildings is somewhat biased towards the ancient style. Even some indigenous people still maintain some very primitive and backward living habits.

There is a pier here, and there are many sunken ships stranded on the side of the pier. It is very dilapidated and unusable, and several indigenous people are still repairing those ships. The maintenance techniques used are also very primitive and backward.

Although Drizzt and the others were tied up with ropes, after they disembarked, they were escorted by the aboriginal soldiers with weapons and walked along a straight road towards the building complex on the island.

After observing all the way, people like Drizzt discovered that the population on this island seems to be small, less than 10,000 at most, and there are still some savages who maintain the most primitive life, and have established cities and civilizations with this island. People living together peacefully, they also have some backward economic systems.

However, those adventurers looked at this place completely differently from those scientists. They saw a lot of antique collections here that would become very valuable outside, and the aborigines here used gold as the main currency, mainly for buy food.

They found a great wealth value from it, and these people were thinking that if they had the opportunity to go out, or gain the trust of those in power here, and establish a trade relationship with this place, then they could exchange a lot of food for gold here. , It's hard not to get rich.

Thinking of this, the fear in the hearts of the adventurers slowly turned into a kind of greed and enthusiasm.

After walking for about ten minutes, Manlu and his group of prisoners were finally brought to their destination.

It is a small city, maybe it is not as big as a county town in those countries outside, but the classical architectural features, and the arrangements full of humanistic colors everywhere, the beautiful scenery, and the paintings are very beautiful, Make those people look amazed.

Soon, this group of people was led into a palace by the natives. There were guards everywhere in the palace, which looked very imposing.

And in front of the main hall there is a very imposing seat, which looks like a throne. An age looks to be about sixty or seventy years old, with a very dignified face, yellow skin and black eyes. The old man with black hair, purebred oriental features, but a very healthy and tough mental state sat on that throne.

Everyone looked at the old man curiously. After the natives came in, they all bowed to him, full of respect, thinking in their hearts that this man might be the king here.

At this time, after the old man looked at Manlu and the others for a few moments, he asked the guard to loosen the ropes for these people, and asked, "Who are you?"

Manlu and Drizzt looked at each other, and they could hear from the old king's language that he was communicating with them in real Chinese.

After they were untied, Manlu imitated the courtesy of the indigenous guards and said in jerky Chinese: "Dear Your Excellency, please allow us to express our apologies. We are all scientists and adventurers from countries outside this sea area." , we inadvertently broke into the territory of Guidao during a scientific expedition, and we did not have any malicious intentions..."

It seemed like the king said: "This octopus island is surrounded by boundless seas, and on the edge, there is an invisible barrier, which has completely closed it for hundreds of years. It is impossible to get out, but outsiders can You came here by chance, got lost here and were taken in, tell me, how did you get in here?"

"It has been closed for hundreds of years?" After Manlu interpreted and explained, the prisoners were shocked.

The old king did not wait for Manlu and the others to reply, and then said in another language that the captives were shocked when they heard it: "We have taken in some people who look like you here, what you said The language is the same as theirs, they have lived here for hundreds of years, many of us here can also speak this language, the old man also listed this language as the second official language of this island..."

After Drizzt and Manlu heard that the king could speak English, and it was also the second official language on the island, the communication between the two sides would be no problem at all, and immediately they seemed very Excited.

Drizzt couldn't help but said: "Dear Your Excellency, are you the king of this island city? Your island is called Octopus Island, so do you have a country name?"

The old king nodded and said: "Of course, my ancestor was a prince of the Liuqiu Kingdom three hundred years ago, and had good friendship and trade relations with Ming Kingdom and some countries in Nanyang, but since my ancestor was young When I took a group of subordinates to explore the ocean and lost, I landed on this island and settled here, and it has been hundreds of years now..."

"Liuqiu Kingdom?"

Manlu's adventurer friend was very surprised when he heard this, and he couldn't help but exclaimed, "I do know the origin of the Liuqiu Kingdom. This country was once invaded by the Japanese Islands, about two hundred years ago. The country has been wiped out, and I never imagined that there are still descendants of your royal family..."

"Has the mother country of my ancestors been destroyed?"

After hearing these words, the king looked very sad and angry at the same time, and asked, "Then the Japanese island country you mentioned was the former Wa country, and is the former Ming Dynasty still alive?"

The adventurer friend paused, hesitated and said: "Well, according to the Orientals, the current Japanese island country was indeed called the Wa country, but the Ming Dynasty you mentioned has disappeared for hundreds of years, and now it is a brand new country. The strong and prosperous country of China is called Huaguo!" (to be continued)
