Chapter 7: 7. Departure: No Man’s Land

"My name is Avril and half a month ago I came to these uninhabited waters by boat with my parents, my two brothers, and my brother Jerry from 300 nautical miles away in the "human class" waters.

The competition of the human class was too fierce and too brutal for us to handle that kind of intensity.

My father had a map, left to him by my grandfather. There are three obscure islands in these waters, which were not shown on the global map of the seas and where. With any luck, we could have stayed.

However on reaching the edge of the human class sea, we came across another ship, a three-masted schooner, thirty meters long, fully ten times larger than our fishing boat. They took a liking to me and we fled all the way, but eventually, they hit us with their guns.

The sea was blowing a gale and we took advantage of the situation to escape, but the ship was badly damaged and it wasn't long before our boat sank.

For a few days at first, my family and I gathered together and gathered some of the cargo around us. Waiting for someone who could come to our rescue, but this was no man's land, and very few people passed by. Gradually, they lost their strength one by one, and at that moment, we met the sharks!

I watched them get eaten by the sharks, and my brother, he pushed me and Jerry into the distance, and he lured the sharks away himself, so we were spared. ...... Then Jerry, he, he was in my arms, and his body was getting cold, and I tried desperately to hold him. But, how I held him It was no use. He died in my arms ...... I was so tired and exhausted afterward, I fell asleep, and I lost Jerry, I ...... I was really so useless!" By this point, Avril had sobbed uncontrollably.

Even White couldn't help but sit beside her and look at her pitifully.

Raine let out a slight sigh, hearing what this woman had gone through, he couldn't help but feel a little sympathy for her.

These days after coming to the Azure Era, although he had not had an easy time of it, he had nevertheless been safe and had not experienced any major storms or seen the cruelty of the Azure Era.

"Avril, I'm sorry for your loss. This world, it's supposed to be cruel."

"I know, but I'm not willing!" Avril jerked her head up, her red eyes containing tears, glaring wide and looking somewhat terrified, "How can these murderers live with such impunity! They must pay the price! I must avenge my family's death!"

Perhaps sensing that she was being too vicious, Avril looked at the bow in embarrassment, "Uh, I'm sorry, I know it's my business, I've just ...... been at sea for four days and you're the first person I've come across ...... no, the first boat. No no, the first boatman."

Raine was rather despondent, what the hell is a boatman!

Never mind, it wasn't the time to dwell on that.

"What is this 'human class' sea you were talking about?"

"You're a boat, don't you even know that?"

"What does that have to do with whether I'm a boat or not?" Raine said in a sour voice.

"Oh." Avril had never met such a fierce ship, so she could only say honestly, "There are five main classes of seas in the world, namely "Sky", "Dragon", "King", "Beast" and "Human". The human class is the lowest class and has the least resources. But in comparison, the current situation on the main shipping routes is more stable and although there are mutants, they are not too numerous and not too strong. Basically, it is rare to encounter sea monsters and foreign beasts. Sort of a more suitable sea for ordinary people like us to live in."

"As for the rest, I'm not sure, I've never been there, all I know is that the beast-class sea is very rich in resources. There are many large islands, and of course, the most terrifying creatures, the most terrifying currents, and the most terrifying natural climate. Only a strong enough fleet with a strong enough crew would dare to enter."

Raine frowned slightly, although he didn't have an eyebrow either ...... "The Beast class is already the most terrifying creature? What about king class, dragon class, and sky class?"

"Well, I don't know about that, I've never been there either, and no one on our side has come back from those places." Avril said with a resigned look, "They also say there are real dragons in the dragon-level waters, I don't know if that's true, and I can't just tell you that."

Raine shook his head, this source of information is really a bit unreliable. A beast-level sea is so said by her, like the top-level sea ...... But then again the human level sea is so competitive? This is a bit out of Raine's expectation.

"So let me ask you, you said we are in unmanned seas now, which level is this again?" Raine could only ask simple questions.

"There is no level in the uninhabited seas, as there are few resources and few islands. Although the climate is relatively smooth and there are no fey beasts. But without resources, who would want to come over?"

Raine thought about it, no wonder he had been able to wander around so leisurely, it turned out to be in uninhabited seas.

He was only a 1.5 combat minion anyway, not to mention a 30m trimaran with cannons, the fishing boat Avril had been on could have taken him out. So it was better to develop in no man's land.

He doesn't know how Avril is going to get his revenge with a 0.5 combat rating, which is not as high as White's.

When thinking about development, Raine's first thought was still wood.

For the next level of evolution, 50 timbers were needed. He would have to encounter five such shipwrecks.

Avril's father had come here only because he had a chart. Who would normally come here? In the vast uninhabited seas! Five shipwrecks! It felt like a dream.

"By the way, is that chart of your father still there?" Raine suddenly thought of it and immediately asked.

"It's long gone."

"Oh my god!" Raine was truly gutted with regret.

"But the general direction I can identify."

"You know the location?"

"I don't know the exact coordinates, but I've seen the charts too. We grew up on the sea, and a quick glance at them will probably give you a rough idea of the direction. And I see you have a compass here, so I think I should be able to take you there."

Raine was instantly energized, if he could find the island, how much wood could there be?

"By the way, what are you sailing on? I don't see an engine." Avril searched the boat, "No oars either."

"Oars? They're at the back of the boat's butt."

Raine had just finished speaking when the timber tethered to the back of his boat was made into two oars by the system.

It was hard to get wood, but if he could find the island and trees, wood was definitely not a problem. Now Raine also had to put down his blood money and make the oars first.

And this time, crafting the item had left him with 0.1 of his original 1.5 wood.

"You row, I'll steer."

Avril took the oars out of the water back into the belly of the boat and set them up on the side shelf, "I'm slow, it could be days before we get to the nearest one."

"Doesn't matter, we can gather some materials on the way." Raine wasn't too anxious about that.

"Hey, by the way, what's your name, and what do I call you from now on?" Avril started paddling and Raine finally got a larger displacement on the surface.

"What do you call me?" Raine thought for a moment, suddenly realizing that the question didn't even need to be thought about.

"That's no need to ask, just call me Captain."

"Yes, Captain!"

"Eh, you and White will be my crew from now on. Now, let's get going right away. Target, No Man's Land!"
