My name is Jones, and I'm a sailor on the Third Fleet of the Griffin Empire, and I'm like many sailors, but I'm different.

Although I have served in the Imperial Third Fleet for 3 years, perhaps because I once accidentally angered my superior, oh, the former captain of the Silver Eagle battleship I am currently in, and now the captain of the 5th Detachment of the Third Fleet, I could have mixed in with the captain, at least I should have a large position, and now I am still a small sailor second only to slaves in the fleet.

But anyway, I'm also a veteran sailor, and I'm a veteran of a few battles, and now the guy who weighed on my head has been transferred to another detachment, so I seem to be a small soldier now, but in fact I'm no worse than a first mate, and that's one of the many things that sets me apart from other sailors.

Of course, the most important thing is that I am a sailor known as a crossbowman: as early as when I was very young, I was able to observe small things from a hundred meters away with the naked eye, and since I was a child, I lived by the sea, so at a very young age I wanted to be an observer on the mainsail, and I did it as an adult.

When I became an adult, I applied for a job as a sailor named the Lion's Claw Chamber of Commerce, and followed this organization that was a small chamber of commerce on the surface, but secretly it was actually a smuggling guild, and this run was 10 years, and I had almost set foot in all the ports included in the King's Inland Sea, and the blood I had sailed for the first time had also disappeared in the polishing of the years.

Since the Lion's Paw Chamber of Commerce did not attach much importance to maritime trade, its main goal was basically land trade between the coast and the inland. In addition, the Lionpaw Chamber of Commerce's trade objects are mainly some powerful people in the interior, so the Lionpaw Guild's trade team is all "elite" routes, and the fleet I am in and affiliated with the Lionpaw Chamber of Commerce is the "elite" route of the "elite" route - in fact, the Lionpaw Guild only has one ship. And this has made me an observer for 10 years.

But my life didn't end in an ordinary way, because after I worked for 10 years as a laborer for the merchant ships of the Lion's Claw Chamber of Commerce, because of the rise of a mysterious empire in the far west, all the people on my ship were confiscated, and to put it mildly, I was pulled by the army as a transport ship.

However, I myself was transferred to the ship where I am now because I am an excellent observer, and because of this I began my 3 years of military life, which offended my former captain, and of course my talent for operating ballistas. This is also the hole card to save my little life, if it weren't for the fact that I was lucky enough to break the keel of the opponent's warship in several battles with pirates and the Divine Light Empire warship, my life would have returned to the embrace of the God of Light. Of course, in fact, I'm in a similar situation right now.

"Jones! Don't give Lao Tzu death to you, you guy, the only ballista on the battleship still needs you to control. The rough figure pulled me back from my memory, and I instantly realized that I had just come to the marquee, but luckily I didn't seem to be gone. When I woke up, I was in pain. But my consciousness and realization have been recovered.

"What just happened?" I had long forgotten what had happened in the previous few minutes, or I didn't know what had happened in the previous few minutes, but as I became conscious, I realized that the ship I was on was different from the "Silver Eagle" in my memory.

The Silver Eagle is a griffon-class battleship commonly found in the Griffon Empire's fleet, a standard medium-sized warship, equipped with three sails, several portrays, and four heavy ballistas. Of course, a few light ballistas were needed, and I myself was the ballista operator in front of the left of the four heavy ballistas, and of course sometimes took over the shooters of the two light ballistas on either side.

If I'm not mistaken. For the first few minutes, I myself was in front of the heavy ballista I was in. But now I am actually on the sidelines, and the ballista I am controlling is now only a fixed table, and the ballista has been reduced to fragments of wood scattered all around, of course, it is possible that these wood fragments do not come from the heavy ballista I control, because when I supported my upper body with my hands, I found that my original sealed cabin had been "opened.......", and it should not be closed.

Of course, I didn't delve into this, because the sharp pain in my body finally washed my consciousness: my left hand was dislocated, and unfortunately, I had several pieces of wood inserted into my shoulders and back, but fortunately these pieces of wood were not inserted deeply, and after I gritted my teeth and took my left hand back, I pulled them out, and as for the blood that flowed from the wound, well, I couldn't care about it, because a tall figure came in front of me and blocked my view, By the way, this figure is the first mate who has been on this ship with me for 3 years.

"You're still alive? Looks like you're not hurt..., we've been attacked, and now you have to come with me. "Saying that, the first mate didn't say a word, and directly resisted me.

"Attack?" I knew I was very conscious at this point, because I reacted in the first place to carry me away, but I felt very unconscious at this time, because I just muttered "oh" when I knew about the attack, and at the same time knew who the attacker was.

Who was the attacker? You don't need to ask if it's the fleet on which the sun sets, but if you want to judge whether the sun doesn't set on the fleet, you can tell if it's a fleet, because you just need to use your ears to listen to the surrounding sky for a thunderstorm-like roar, and see if the damaged area that appears after the battleship is hit is a circular gap.

On the way to be carried, I noticed that many people around me looked at me a little wrong, and of course I felt a little wrong, because I always felt that the lower part of my body was empty, but on the way to being resisted, there were many things that distracted me, such as the leaky cabin, such as the sailor who was very messy with the bucket, and the ...... Like me, I was taken by other people, but these guys basically have two characteristics, one is that they let out a heart-rending scream during the process of being taken away, or they can't scream anymore.

"Alright, Jones, we're at the finish line, sorry man." At this moment, the first mate who resisted me suddenly said, and then kicked open a certain door.......well, the door connecting the cabin and deck of the first deck: "Let me give you one last ride." ”

"Why are you sorry?" My mind was full of doubts, but of course the situation around me attracted my attention even more: the once solid deck now had a gap connecting to the first deck, and the three sails were now falling on the surrounding water in flames, and the panicked sailors were running around the deck, while the new captain of the "Silver Eagle" opened his mouth with all his might, spraying his own saliva.

In the distance, there are constantly griffon knights of our empire falling from the sky into the water, the smoke has shrouded the entire sky, the sun can't penetrate the layers of smoke clouds on the water, and the huge fleet and the blue sea are all red with blood and fire at this time, in addition to the wreckage of the battleship that fell into the water and the abandoned materials on the water, there are also the corpses of the sailors, of course, these corpses must belong to our griffin empire, after all, I am not deaf, The entire battlefield was noisy, but there was no distinctive roar from the Naga warriors, and there was no cry of the sun setting.

"Huh?" Suddenly I felt like my body was empty, and then I suddenly fell down, and finally fell into the water. At the same time as I fell into the water, I also heard the last words of the first mate, of course, with my "sober" consciousness, I knew that he was not saying this to me: "See, just like I did, if you still want to live and don't want the ship to sink, throw away all the useless things for Lao Tzu!" ”

The icy sea water stimulated my body and awakened my consciousness at the same time: "I'm sorry for this.........." (To be continued......
