Because Xin Sheng and Barnabas deliberately adjusted the time, it was still broad daylight when Jackdaw arrived near White Hat Bay.

Mermaids hate dryness and usually do not appear during the day, and it is safer to have a period of time when the sun is strong.

Under the guidance of Xin Sheng, more than 20 people took four small boats and tried to slow down their movements and rowed into Baihu Bay. Finally, they successfully docked at the long-abandoned dock.

"Trag the boat to the shore and hide it, leaving only one as bait."

After getting off the boat, Xin Sheng immediately moved towards the towering lighthouse. Before leaving, he instructed the sailors to hide the boat and try not to be discovered by mermaids at night.

The lighthouse in White Hat Bay has been abandoned for many years, but the overall structure remains very complete.

When Xin Sheng and others arrived at the top of the lighthouse, Kaigan inspected the lighthouse lighting device.

"The captain's information is correct, and there is still a lot of whale oil stored in the eternal light, which is enough for us to use."

Whale oil is the lighting fuel before the emergence of oil. In order to supply human lighting needs, whales in the ocean were once hunted and killed as a frequent and dangerous species.

If it weren't for the timely discovery of oil, these poor guys would probably not be able to escape the fate of extinction.

"Captain Jefferson, time is tight, let's divide the troops into two groups."

Confirmating that the lighthouse can still operate normally, Xin Sheng suggested to Jefferson: "Getting the Undying Spring requires the power of two Holy Grails, and also the use of the mermaid's tears."

"Search for the Holy Grail or hunt mermaids, you can choose one."

Jefferson's expression was still very rigid. After thinking for a moment, he gave a rational reply.

"Treasure hunting is not what we are good at, the Royal Navy's duty is to fight."

"Let me lead the sailors to hunt mermaids, and you go find Ponce de Leon's ship and retrieve two holy grails."

Xin Sheng naturally would not have any objection to this, and the danger of finding the Holy Grail is much lower than hunting mermaids.

"Okay, but be careful, mermaids have very cruel habits, don't be confused by their beautiful appearance...and we want to catch a living one."

Jefferson nodded: "I understand, but I need you to tell us about the arrest process."

It is not difficult to seduce mermaids, but the ideas provided by Wetherby can successfully lead them out of the deep sea.

The difficulty lies in how to capture one alive.

Mermaids have always been in groups, and it is not easy to save their lives from their hands, and it is even more difficult to capture them alive.

"In this way, I will provide you with an idea."

...

According to common sense, Ponce de Leon's ship should not be too far from the coastline.

None of the previous explorers were able to find the trace of the ship, proving that it was hidden in a secret place.

‘It would be easier if there was Jack’s compass.’

Sighing, Xin Sheng asked the 16 sailors, including Kaigan, to split into a team of 4 people, and searched along the coastline.

Xin Sheng himself was acting with Angelica and Will, carefully entering the dense tropical jungle to search for traces.

Since this world trip was mostly at sea, it was difficult for Dahuang and Pegas to get the opportunity to play, and often had to stay on the boat and wait for Xin Sheng to return.

Pegas is not available for searching in the jungle, but rhubarb can work in this environment.

The rare rhubarb that can get ashore seems a little excited. Under Xin Sheng's command, it concentrates on pursuing possible clues.

Xin Sheng spent most of his time connecting vision with Daedalus, leaving only a small part of his consciousness to follow Will and Angelica.

Will's attention is mainly focused on the surrounding environment. The stuffy jungle can easily make people irritate, and there will be poisonous snakes and insects appear at any time.

Angelica was always paying attention to Xin Sheng. She keenly noticed that Xin Sheng was absent-minded and held the long sword in her hand and guarded him vigilantly.

I have to say that talent is really enviable, jealous and hateful, Angelica is a talented person.

Kill~ What we are talking about here is not her figure talent, but Angelica's ability to comprehend combat skills.

Since Angelica last time she proposed to learn combat skills, Xin Sheng has taught her how to fight when she was idle during her voyage.

Xin Sheng’s fighting skills were learned from Natiya and Kassandra, but his Spartan fighting skills were already very different from those two, and he formed his own unique style.

When teaching Angelica, Xin Sheng did not carry a private product, but taught him the original version of Spartan fighting skills.

After all, Xin Sheng is not sure whether Angelica can adapt to his overly strong fighting skills.

Originally, Xin Sheng thought that Angelica would give up soon after suffering, but the development of the situation was beyond his expectations.

Angelica, who seemed soft, had a toughness in her bones. Even though she was defeated by Xin Sheng many times without any mercy, she still did not give up. She gritted her teeth and raised her long sword to continue attacking Xin Sheng.

Her strength improvement speed can be seen from the naked eye. Although it is difficult to achieve qualitative improvement in physical fitness in a short period of time, her skills have made great progress through daily exercise.

Compared with Xin Sheng, a warrior who has experienced countless life-and-death battles, Angelica is far inferior, but she can fight back and forth with Will Turner, who also lacks practical experience.

You know, Will has trained alone for several years, and even without the guidance of a famous teacher, the sweat he shed is definitely not in vain.

Angelica only took less than a month to widen the skill gap with Will, but she was not as good as her physical fitness.

...Of course, in Xin Sheng's opinion, these two people can only be considered as vegetarians pecking each other, and they have never seen blood on their hands, and they have seriously lacked practical experience.

Anyway, one sheep is to drive, and two sheep are to put them out.

When Angelica found it difficult to make more progress in the competition with Will, Xin Sheng took the initiative to take the responsibility of sparring.

Xin Sheng’s combat skills are all tempered in actual combat.

It’s not that they can’t do it until they are done, but in order to cultivate Angelica and Will’s awareness of crisis in the face of actual combat, Xin Sheng followed the actual combat standards when practicing, and even showed no mercy to Angelica.

Will and Angelica have suffered a lot of scratches on their bodies recently, which will not have much impact on their daily lives, but will increase their concentration in training and dare not relax at all.

Will is a rough man and doesn't care about some wounds.

Barnabas and others felt sorry for the scars on Angelica's white skin. Recently, they have always protested to Xin Sheng with accusation eyes, believing that he cruelly destroyed a work of art.

One point of effort, one point of gain.

At the cost of adding scars on his body, Angelica's practical skills have been further improved. She has already possessed real combat capabilities and can no longer be the vase that can only help Xin Sheng pass messages on the ship.

This puts Will, who was trained together, and has been working hard for self-training recently.

"Woooooo!"

While moving cautiously in the jungle, Dahuang suddenly lowered her body and let out a warning roar.

Xin Sheng, who was searching for Ponce de Leon's ship through Daedalus' vision, quickly came back to his senses and took off the Artemis bow from behind.

‘Stop moving forward.’

Xin Sheng ordered Will and Angelica with a gesture agreed before departure. The three of them stopped in place at the same time, and the "rustling" sound of scratching the leaves also stopped.

‘Hawkeye, open.’

It is difficult to observe nearby situations through conventional vision in the dense jungle, and Daedalus cannot see through the situation below from the lush woods.

At this time, it is Hawkeye Vision's turn to play a role.

A large heat source was ambushed about 20 meters ahead of the three people. Judging from the outline of the body scanned by Hawkeye, it should be a cat.

‘American, big cat, is it…’

Xin Sheng licked the corner of his dry mouth and unconsciously raised a smile.
