The Moonlight Box: Returning to the Past (Continued)

If they ask for less money, Bai Ye will become more wary.

Because this might not be intended to send them to Sea God Island, but rather to have them rob the island by acting as pirates along the way.

In the novel, Tang San and his group encountered just such a situation.

Of course, with Bai Ye's strength, he certainly wouldn't be afraid of such a danger.

But if those captains and crew members die by their own hand, even if Bai Ye manages to keep the ship, he won't know how to get to Sea God Island!

So why not spend some money and find a reliable captain to take them to Sea God Island?

At the shipping company, Bai Ye paid several times the normal price to rent a boat and posted a mission to go to Sea God Island. After that, he left the shipping company and took the women to experience the various delicacies of Vast Sea City.

There were all sorts of seafood delicacies, like lobsters, crabs, sea urchins, and Sea Star. I ate to my heart's content.

These seaside delicacies are almost impossible to find inland.

The next day, Bai Ye took the women to the auction house in Vast Sea City and bought several Spirit-Guided Sea Vessel, similar to the Dragon Abyss Boat that Tang San and his companions bought in the novel.

Then they went to the shipping company to see if any captains had accepted the posted missions.

However, after taking a look, although some captains accepted the mission to go to Sea God Island, there weren't many, probably because there wasn't enough time.

Since he hadn't had enough fun in Vast Sea City, Bai Ye decided to stay Vast Sea City for another two days to find out which Vast Sea City were reliable.

Then, we'll choose the most reliable captain from among those who accepted the mission and head to Sea God Island.

Two days passed in the blink of an eye.

Bai Ye also learned about the captains in Vast Sea City who were capable and had good character.

After arriving at the shipping company, Bai Ye selected a reliable captain, met with him, and arranged a time to set sail the next day.

Time quickly passed to the next day.

After checking out of the hotel, Bai Ye led the women to the dock in Vast Sea City.

The docks of Vast Sea City were bustling with activity. Twenty docks, each hundreds of meters long, stretched into the sea, with ships of various sizes moored on the surface, leaning against each dock.

Many strong and healthy laborers were carrying goods, like worker ants in an anthill, continuously transporting goods to ships through the dock.

Most of the ships at the dock were cargo ships, carrying mostly food, clothing, and other daily necessities.

Whether it's a coastal city or an island in the ocean, the land is too close to the sea and has long been saline, making it impossible to grow food.

Therefore, the grain in Vast Sea City is basically purchased from the inland areas.

In contrast to Vast Sea City, the people living on the islands had no way to buy food, so they relied entirely on Vast Sea City's ships to transport food there, and then they exchanged it for seafood.

These seafood products may seem worthless to the people on the island, but their price can increase several times over once they are transported to Vast Sea City.

If it can be transported inland, the price will be even higher!

Besides food, various daily necessities, such as clothing, are also needed by the islanders, but they cannot manufacture or buy them.

Therefore, the people of Vast Sea City would also transport these things to trade with the people on the island.

The prosperity of the entire Vast Sea City is entirely built on these trades!

With the women by his side, Bai Ye walked along a dock until he arrived at a ship.

This is a boat that looks only about 60% new, but it is well maintained and looks quite good. The hull is mainly painted iron gray.

This is related to a rumor in the Vast Sea City. It is said that the Soul Beast in the Endless Sea will not attack iron-gray ships.

The ship is about 70 meters long and more than 30 meters wide, making it a medium-sized vessel. Underneath the iron-gray paint on its exterior is a thick layer of iron armor, which should provide it with good protection.

This is one of the reasons why Bai Ye ultimately chose to rent this ship to go to Sea God Island.

"Haha! Ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard the Seagull!"

As Bai Ye led the women toward the ship, an old man dressed in a naval uniform, with white hair and a beard, stepped off the ship and greeted Bai Ye and the others with a hearty laugh.

He is the captain of this ship, Raphael, who is over sixty years old and has been working in the maritime industry for forty or fifty years. He is experienced and has always had a good reputation.

Although the price is relatively high, it is worth it.

Led by Captain Raphael, the group boarded the Seagull.

The Seagull was divided into four decks: two below deck and two above deck, with four or five rooms on each deck.

Because they had spent a lot of money, Bai Ye and the others naturally stayed in the two-story luxury rooms on the deck, one room per person, while the sailors lived on the first floor below the deck.

The second floor, on the other hand, is where goods are loaded.

Raphael transported everyday items such as clothing, so they didn't take up much space.

Of course, this is also because Bai Ye spent a lot of money to rent the ship; otherwise, Raphael would definitely have used most of the ship's hold to load cargo.

Once Bai Ye and the others boarded the ship, the Seagull immediately set sail.

Nothing unexpected happened along the way.

Under the experienced pilot Raphael's command, the Seagull encountered no attacks from Sea Soul Beast along the way. After several days of sailing, it finally arrived near the waters where Sea God Island was located.

However, after arriving here, the Seagull was no longer able to transport Bai Ye and the others.

Because if they went any further, they might encounter the Demon Soul Great White Shark, from Sea God Island. Therefore, Bai Ye and the others would have to go to Sea God Island on their own.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I'm sorry, but this is already the waters surrounding Sea God Island, where Demon Soul Great White Shark often patrol. If we go any further, we are very likely to encounter Demon Soul Great White Shark, so I can only take you this far."

After the Seagull came to a stop, Raphael couldn't help but feel a little apologetic.

However, Bai Ye was prepared for this. He simply smiled and said, "It's alright, we already know all this. We bought Spirit-Guided Sea Vessel in advance, and we can make our own way there."

After saying that, Bai Ye went to the deck, took out two Spirit-Guided Sea Vessel that looked just like models, and after injecting Spirit-Guided Sea Vessel Soul Power into the sea boats, he immediately threw them into the sea.

After being thrown out, the naval vessel suddenly swelled in mid-air, transforming in the blink of an eye into two uniquely designed and ornate blue ships, each over ten meters long, before plunging into the sea.

Looking at the two ships, Bai Ye couldn't help but feel quite emotional.

The ships that looked the same before were transformed into this after being infused with Soul Power. The level of Soul Guidance Technology is definitely no less than that of the Douluo Continent era of the Peerless Tang Sect!

It's unknown how the previous generation of Soul Guidance civilization, which possessed such advanced Soul Guidance Technology, was destroyed, and why no trace of their Soul Guidance Technology has survived.

I don't know if it's the same as what he thought.

"Captain Raphael, farewell!"

After launching the Spirit-Guided Sea Vessel into the sea, Bai Ye clasped his hands in farewell to Captain Raphael and the crew, then Spirit-Guided Sea Vessel.

Following the direction Raphael had indicated, the two Spirit-Guided Sea Vessel plunged into the sea and sped toward Sea God Island, quickly disappearing into the blue waves.
