Chapter 261
Chapter 261
Joining the sailors who have disembarked from some merchant ship, they line up in the entrance examination line. From the content of the review I heard, I confirmed that there was no particular problem likely to occur, and waited for my turn while looking around.
The section that serves as the dock isnt that high above the sea level, but the city area where the actual residences are built is about 3-4m higher, and there are several gigantic plane-type ships reminiscent of disaster prevention floats. joined together to form the dry land. Unlike the disaster prevention floats in my original world, the structure of the Big Ships plane ships seem to be mainly made of wood, but judging from the size that can be seen I think its close to 100m.
Considering that such a huge thing was built and floated on the sea, its more like a magical building than a shipbuilding technology.
Its my turn. The officer conducting the examination quickly confirmed the guild card and crew certificate, and asked about the purpose of the call and the length of stay. m here to explore the labyrinth island! Now if only I can say that upfront, but what I plan to explore is the abandoned labyrinth island. Of which landing there is prohibited, and its exact location not announced to the general public.
When I told them that the purpose of the port call was for commercial transactions and the length of stay would be one month, I was charged for the issuance of a permit for commercial transactions in addition to the entrance fee for that period.
In exchange for a fair amount of money, I received a permit for commercial transactions and entry into the capital. Then I was finally able to officially enter Big Ship.
Inside the city, the center of the flat ship is the main street, and wooden houses are lined up on the left and right. However, some buildings were solid from the ground up, while others were improvised huts, almost like barracks. The length of the main street is still nearly 100m, and the width is about 30-40m.
From where I stood after entering the city, the view was blocked by the buildings. But if one were to look down from the sky on this Big Ship, eight flat ships are anchored in an octagon formation, and inside that formation, are four ships around a solitary island that acts as the heart of the city. The tribe that rules the city lives on this only piece of actual land.
Then, to fill the gaps between the twelve flat ships, ships of various sizes were moored to form a shipboard city.
A flat ship that you can walk across from the dockif you look at the places where there are signs with 12 written on them, is it the number of the ship?
This 12th ship was mainly lined with warehouses, direct sales shops, and culinary business such as bars and food stalls. The scent of the sea and the smell of fish in the air made me frown, but when I saw the female beastmen passing by, I was relieved.
Most of the people living in the Filtonian Islands are beastmen. There are a lot of humans too, but most are brown skinned, though I dont know if its tan or just the color of their skin. And everyone wears light clothes Many men wear only a sleeveless thin jacket on their bare skin, with nothing else on top.
Then what about the women? Their breasts and waist were covered with a piece of cloth that invoked the illusion of wearing bikinis, with a long pareo-like cloth wrapped over it.
Beside me, the sailors who have finished their immigration examinations landed for the first time in a long timeare running through, enjoying their arrival on the ship, aiming for the tavern they havent seen in a long time. They disappeared as if it was sucked into the store where women were waiting.
Simply glancing at that scene, I headed down the main street toward the merchant that I had heard about from Malta-san. Before heading to Labyrinth Island, I entered Big Ship to gather information, buy magic stones, and set up a supply route.
At the twelfth ferry boarding point, I asked for the location where the merchant ship that I was aiming for is anchored, then boarded the adjacent number boat.
The view of Big Sheep from the ferry reminds me of the floating city of Venice, but if you ask me which one is more beautiful, its Venice. However, no matter where you look, you can enjoy the scenery full of life in Big Ship and the slightly mysterious feeling of having a house built on top of a ship.
This is the sixth ship. The shop youre looking for is on the left after going up.
Thanks
As I climbed the stairs from the sixth ferry landing, I found that most of the houses lined up there were shops of some kind. This No. 6 ship is probably a large commercial ship where Big Ship stores gather. I quickly found the shop I was looking forSierras Shop. The house is reminiscent of a simple souvenir shop or candy store, and the storefront is lined with large and small attribute magic stones. In the dimly lit interior, I could see fangs and furs packed in showcases, probably materials of magic beasts.
Excuse me.
The store didnt seem to have any signs of people, but on the map floating in my field of vision, I can see two dots clearly floating in the back.
Yes.
Only one of the dots raised its voice and began to move.
The room at the back of the shop seems to be a private space. A thin sliding door like a shoji door was pulled.
Welcome, may I help you-nya?
The one who came out from the back was a tall female beastman with leopard-like ears and a long speckled tail. She had a feline personality like Miche-san from Sansaqua. She has sharp eyes and a slender but supple body, and she was exuding with a strong sense of natural sex appeal thanks to the even more sensational pareo dress.
My name is Schwartz, and I am doing business in Kurtmerga. I heard from Maridas Malta Commerce Chairman that I could buy what I wanted here, so I decided to stop by.
Malta, huh Im Sierra, the owner of this store. As you can see, we sell everything, but most of it you can also buy elsewhere. But the fact that Malta purposely directed you to usonii-san, Ill listen to the details in the back.
Saying that, Sierra turned around and walked into the dimly lit store. I tried to follow her, so I took a step forward to match her movements, but.
Even from the front, Sierras pareo look was sensational, but the back was even more amazing Her back was wide open, and the base of her swaying tail was just a thin pareo, and the line of underwear she was supposed to be wearing underneath was completely invisible.
Theres nothing under there?
What are you standing there for? I wont eat you.
Perhaps noticing that I wasnt following her, Sierra lightly glanced over here, smiled lightly, and quickly walked back into the room.
Afterwards, I realized that I was fascinated by her appearanceor rather, on purpose It was a smile that made me think so.
Then, the story changes. From now on, I have to proceed with the negotiations lightly. Using this Big Ship as one of my bases of operations, I will go on an expedition to Labyrinth Island. I need the cooperation of the people who live in this city to build the scaffolding.
Besides, Malta-san has not expanded the branch of Marida company to this country yet. As long as Im active in the Filtonia Islands Alliance, I need to keep in touch with the merchants of this country.
The first candidate is the owner of Sierras Shop.
On the other side of the thin sliding door like a shoji door was a wooden living room. And then, besides Sierra, there was another beastman just like her, only much older.
Sit down as you please, this old man is our appraiser and former sailor Garda. Except when working as an appraiser, its not much different from an ornament, so dont worry about it.
I slightly bowed to the old beastman called Garda, but from his wrinkled and wrinkled face, I couldnt tell if there was a reaction. For the time being, I turned my attention back to Sierra, who was the negotiating partner, and sat down on a cloth bag placed on the wooden floora cushion.
Sitting facing each other, Sierra threw her long legs out and sunk into the cushion. I rested myself on the cushion, sitting cross-legged in the attempt to make myself relax. But the cushion was surprisingly comfortable to sit on. It felt like a bead cushion from my original world, but the contents of the cloth bag are either pumice stone or beach sand.
Now thenlets hear your story since weve both calmed down.
