This contract, called the "Special Employment Regulations for the Flying Dutchman's Special Crew," stipulates Kraken's various obligations in detail.
For example, if you are physically fit, you will unconditionally obey the captain's call to fight, and you will not be able to attack or harm any crew member or the ship itself without the captain's permission, etc.
To give a brief description, anyway, it is almost the same as a bonded job. It is about the same as calling a girl.
Moreover, in the contract, it was already stipulated that half of Kraken's previous harvest, that is, the collection in its lair, would be used as its first ship's fare.
In other words, Wang Yuanheng also owns half of the core from La Lorenas, but it is only temporarily stored in it.
Wang Yuanheng's obligation was to provide Kraken with food, accommodation and a place on the ship.
At the same time, Kraken participated in the battle, and 50% of the loot it captured belonged to it.
Regarding this point, Kraken and Wang Yuanheng argued for a long time.
Kraken felt aggrieved that he had to fight for Wang Yuanheng unconditionally. Of course, the trophies he captured should be his own.
However, as the captain, Wang Yuanheng was "eloquent", moved with emotion, and rational. After pointing in the direction of Kraken's boarding, he explained in detail.
Kraken finally "understood" the captain's good intentions and said that he would take the lead in being an excellent crew member, and offered to hand over half of the loot to the Flying Dutchman Crew Mutual Aid Fund in the future.
As for the other crew members, the ghost girl Yui should be counted as one, and there are five death black sharks. Well, the rest will come sooner or later.
Regarding the specific management of this fund, of course, the captain, who is wise, capable and hard-working, is personally responsible.
In fact, Wang Yuanheng originally planned to ask the other party to pay for board and lodging and the crew should give the captain a share of the seizure. Later, I thought about it, Kraken is also a man who is known as the King of the Sea, no, the sea monster, if he doesn't even have any income in the future, it will inevitably seriously affect the enthusiasm of this crew member, causing it to be ineffective at work.
In order not to affect the good atmosphere of friendship, unity and mutual assistance on the Flying Dutchman, Wang Yuanheng, the captain, said that there is no need to charge it for board and lodging, and at the same time, it will not charge any other additional fees.
Of course, it will not have a fixed crew salary in the future, and its income will depend entirely on the spoils of war.
Moreover, only basic food and accommodation are guaranteed. If you want to add extra meals, it will be an additional expense and you have to pay for it yourself.
After all, the pressure of food and accommodation for a super sea monster is already huge, right? The landlord’s family doesn’t have any food left.
Although Kraken's attributes are completely worthy of the price, capital has never had a conscience, right?
A captain who does not exploit his crew is still a good captain.
…
At this time, the Flying Dutchman is floating freely on the sea.
The reason why he did not return to Ziatu's extradimensional mansion was because Kraken needed to use the power of the sea to restore himself.
The Flying Dutchman is a very meaningful ship, not only her skills, but her equipment is also very powerful.
For example, her captain's cabin contains magic charts, omen wind chimes, etc., including the magic bottle containing the large death black shark, which is part of the captain's cabin.
Another example is the observatory on the mast, which actually provides protection for the observing hands. There is also a single-lens magic telescope, but it cannot be removed because the entire observatory is an integral piece of equipment.
In fact, there are some equipment that are not displayed, such as a living and resting place for the crew, which is very helpful for qualified crew members. However, since this ghost ship currently does not have a few serious crew members, it is not activated at all.
But no matter what, the fact that [Sea Monster Fish Tank] can be singled out among them shows that it is extraordinary.
In fact, although the sea monster fish tank looks like just a shallow pool of sea water, it actually contains an ocean! The rockeries inside that look like artificial landscapes are also real undersea mountains.
According to the introductory information from the ghost ship itself, it was brought from an unknown sea area by an unknown force.
Otherwise, Kraken wouldn't be able to stay inside.
However, the Storm Sea is the place where Kraken was born after all. It can get more bonuses and better recovery here, which helps it quickly stabilize the backlash of its bloodline in these days.
Therefore, the Flying Dutchman had better stay afloat on stormy seas day and night for these two days.
After this time, it doesn't matter. Without special opportunities, Kraken would have to wait and slowly recover for the time being.
To be honest, for Kraken, the concept of time is completely different from that of humans. Therefore, although he was very reluctant at first, after seeing that the conditions of the sea monster fish tank were good, he did not complain too much.
Anyway, it’s not cultivation. It’s not bad to go see the colorful world with humans (Wang Yuanheng described it vividly, although he didn’t mean Hallelujah at all). It’s only three hundred years, so it doesn’t take long.
The only thing that felt distressed was his treasures. He had collected them for many years, but this time half of them would be taken away by someone. Kraken was very sad.
That's right.
Although the Flying Dutchman did not sail at night for safety reasons at this time, the overall goal remained the same. This completely opposite direction from before is the road to Kraken's former lair.
This is why Wang Yuanheng insisted on staying on the ship. The Flying Dutchman is a ghost ship. If he, the captain, were not on board, she would have gone with the never-ending storm.
In this stormy sea, there might be trouble. After all, Ghost Girl Yuai has no control over the ship.
It would be a tragedy if Kraken's enemies discovered it.
…
Kraken is a very intelligent guy, so this makes him special among sea beasts that are generally not very intelligent.
For example, wisdom gives it a strong sense of vanity. Although it doesn't admit it, it actually learned many things from humans.
Therefore, its caves contain many gold and silver treasures dedicated to it by humans. Realistically, what good would these things do to a sea monster? Might as well give me more food.
The wealth in Kraken's lair under the deep sea really shocked the witches. Once inside, they were almost blinded by the golden light.
It’s not about the contribution of various sea ships, because there is a gold mine here itself! What’s even more shocking is that magic crystals are naturally produced here!
Near the inner wall of the lair, densely packed and beautiful crystals of various colors grow, and each piece is a fine magic material.
There was naturally a reason why Kraken chose this place in the first place.
A place where magic crystals can be naturally produced must be a node where the magic tide surges, which is beneficial to the growth of Kraken. The gold mine is purely a personal hobby. Of course, the gold mine here can also be used as a magic material after being refined.
In addition, there are a large number of shipwrecks in the Sea of Storms every year, many of which have been looted by Kraken. Everyone knows why the Sea of Storms is famous besides its storms. Although the sea water destroys many things, it leaves even more behind.
Seeing the activated cables on the Flying Dutchman constantly harvesting his wealth, the sound of those things falling on the deck made Kraken, who once admired them so much, very sad, but there was nothing he could do about it.
As its lair, this place was once a famous forbidden area in the circle of sea beasts in the Sea of Storms.
But as time goes by, it has not appeared, and this place will definitely be occupied by other sea beasts. It is better to take it away early, which can save half of the loss.
"Ah, there is a [Quilishasa's charm bracelet] here, and it's still intact." This was Evlova's surprised scream. She grabbed the pink bracelet and didn't want to let go.
Quelishasha is a once-famous witch in Hallelujah. Her charm is unstoppable, and even race cannot isolate her charm. It is said that even elemental creatures will bow to her wizard robe.
And she made many related props to strengthen her ability in this area, the most famous series of which is [Quilishasha's Charm Bracelet].
This is the magic item that all beauty-loving witches dream of.
"This dimensional bag is actually not broken yet. It's a dragon skin magic book!"
"This is Kunala snowflake grass. It has been soaked in the deep sea for a long time and has not broken down."
…
There were shouts of surprise one after another, and all kinds of good things were discovered by the witches.
Do you know the joy of picking up treasures? You can't stop at all.
"I see that you are not particularly excited. There are a lot of good things here that I am very greedy for." Qiatu walked up to Wang Yuanheng who was directing the demolition of the activated cable.
"I'm very excited." Wang Yuanheng's tone was calm.
"I didn't hear that from your tone." Ziatu was a little confused.
"Because I feel even more heartbroken. I can't take most of these things away with me." Wang Yuanheng gently held his forehead, somewhat dumbfounded.
"Oh, that's right." Ziatu replied dryly and fell into a strange silence.
She had experienced a lot in the past two days, and her mood also fluctuated. She had unknowingly forgotten, or subconsciously ignored that Wang Yuanheng was not a Hallelujah person at all.
He doesn't belong here at all and will leave sooner or later.
…
Four nights later, the Flying Dutchman docked near an island.
This place is not too far from Farventus. We will set off tomorrow morning and arrive in about afternoon. By then, most of Ziatu's magic power should have been restored.
In other words, this is their last night at sea.
Somehow, Wang Yuanheng felt that Chiatu's gaze on him was particularly intense tonight, and he could hardly hide it. During dinner in the evening, he almost couldn't stand the whispers and strange looks from the young witches.
Of course, it's still a little bit worse.
There was a "bang bang bang" knock on the door, and then Wang Yuanheng walked near the door and thought, and the door opened automatically.
A gust of fragrant wind came, and the warm fragrance of nephrite fell into my arms.
"Captain, do you want to get on board?"
…
