Starting from the Blue River and Midport, we have entered the territory of Amn.
However, the caravan's destination was only the city of Velen along the coast of Amn, so it did not stop at various port towns along the Bru River.
Go all the way west to the sea, and then advance north.
In less than a week, there were no storms or pirates, and the city of Willen was in sight.
Viewed from the sea.
The first thing you see at first glance is the steep city wall on the coast that is integrated with a steep cliff.
Even though they are still far apart, the solid defense is still visible to the naked eye.
The coast is never a peaceful place.
Whether it is sea creatures, such as fish-men, sea monsters, or the pirates that will never be lacking.
The first prerequisite for whether a port city can last is whether it has strong enough defense!
Undoubtedly, as the core of the Ceranchat family's territory, Port Velen's solid defense is not as good as that of Askatra, the royal capital of Amn, and it is probably far behind Baldur's Gate and Waterdeep, but its foothold is stable. But it’s more than up to the mark!
Beasley pointed to the sea over there, where busy ships were entering and exiting, and said: "There are two deep-water docks in Willen Port and a naval base in the inner bay."
"The company mainly rents the southern pier and maintains it here. There are at least four new warships at any time to deal with pirates including the Pirate Islands in the Traceless Sea in the south and the Luskan Sea in the north of the Sword Coast. threaten."
"However, this is still not enough. Compared to Amn and the Lords Alliance, our number of warships is still far behind."
"This also limits the company's development progress on Maztec to a certain extent."
Beasley is in charge of his dealings with the Seranchat family, so he is no stranger to Willen City.
Similarly, through the cover of the United Company, the Kingdom Security Bureau is also constantly involved in Maztec, so he is also familiar with the matter of the new route.
It was easy to introduce Isaac at this time.
Isaac looked away, pondered again, and nodded slowly.
From the perspective of the fleet, there is no large port or real naval base. The kingdom is indeed quite behind the Amn people in this regard.
It's not just here.
Beyond the dragon coast, it points to the route to the ancient kingdom.
Boltan and the Ring Islands, as well as the routes to the Shining Sea and Lake of Steam.
If it weren't for the fact that he had a loyal servant of Dragon Wings in his hands.
If it weren't for the past few years, he had activated the group dragon power several times in a row.
If it weren't for him in Nature's Green, he would have shocked many aspects.
It is simply impossible for the kingdom's various routes to be as stable as they are now!
However, shock always has a time limit. More than five years have passed in the blink of an eye. For newcomers, what happened back then is probably already on the verge of being forgotten.
We must fundamentally maintain stability and even expand externally...
One, or even multiple, ports of your own, your own official naval base, this is absolutely indispensable!
Isaac nodded slightly, but didn't say much.
Soon, accompanied by the sound of the whistling horn, the fleet entered the dock in an orderly manner and anchored towards the shore.
The southern pier has basically been rented by the United Company. Here, there are dedicated personnel responsible for loading, unloading and handing over the goods.
Similarly, Isaac and the others, who came as important members of the United Company, made a slight signal at Beasley facing somewhere in the port.
Soon, someone came to meet them.
After another handover in secret words, the security bureau assigned a secret agent to the company, a woman with short brown hair, wheat-colored skin, and a rather sassy temperament. With her enthusiasm for the company's senior management, she followed him as if familiar. They communicated while leading them, quickly walked out of the dock area, and pointed to the real city.
With the cooperative relationship between the company and the lord's family, she personally led the way, so there were no guards to hinder them.
Soon we entered the city.
Then, the secret agent's guidance was no longer needed. After getting the hint from Isaac's eyes, Beasley thanked him and the two parties quickly separated.
"Sir, who are we next?"
Beasley immediately asked for instructions.
He did not call "Your Majesty" again. Likewise, knowing that His Majesty was hiding his identity, he did not ask for instructions whether he wanted to visit the lord's castle.
"Walk around and take a look."
"First take a look at our shipyard, then take a look at the Sailan Chat family's naval base, and then..."
Isaac's eyes were observing the surroundings with some interest.
This port city may be less prosperous than the natural green.
But...more flavor of life!
Unlike the neatly planned streets when the Natural Green was built, the streets and alleys of Wellen City are interspersed among numerous hills and highlands. The citizens are also different from the Natural Green. Over there, the Natural Green Almost everyone is related to business and trade, here...
Isaac's eyes turned from the laughing and playing children, from the performers showing off their skills, and then looked at a man wearing a shiny and clean full-body armor. The chest of the armor was also marked with a The team of priests with giant golden eyes.
This team walked out of a huge fortress-like military building.
It is obvious that there are more priests among them who are also equipped with such armor and also wear helmets without masks.
"Then, go and visit the temple of the God of Protection!"
Isaac's eyes lit up slightly.
The God of Guardians is one of the main beliefs of the Amn people. Their first port colonial city in Maztec was named after him.
These priests are His followers!
Likewise, that military fortress-like building is where His temple is located, and it is also the largest temple in Wellen City!
The reason why he paused in Wellen City.
The main development of the United Company is here, and the shipyard is also here. In addition, Willen City is still on the route to Waterdeep City, so it is not necessary to take a look around.
However, it is undeniable that this is a famous guardian temple in the whole of Amn, and it is also one of the targets he has planned to visit!
His eyes briefly focused on the "big blue eye" holy symbol of the temple, and there was a deep look of interest in the depths of Isaac's eyes.
The God of Guardian, also known as the Watcher, the Eternal Watcher!
This giant blue eye has the symbolic meaning of "surveillance eye".
And the "surveilling eye"...
"Eye of the Eye of the Beholder!"
"The only one, the only beholder who can associate with the good camp!"
"Guardians of the Temple of Helm!"
"They are also the most hated and angry enemies of the Church of the Lord of Darkness and their Beholder Alliance!"
Undoubtedly, no matter what kind of creature it is, it is of significance for Isaac to observe and even study it!
