The Journey of the Infinite Wizard
Chapter 417: Queen Anne's Revenge
Speaking of Blackbeard, Edward Teach, we have to talk about his ship, the infamous Queen Anne's Revenge!
It was originally a merchant ship built in England and was named the Concorde. It initially served as an armed merchant ship, but was hijacked by a French privateer a year later! It was transformed into a vessel similar to the Dutch Flute, and was later
Sold to Spain. In 1713, it returned to France for transformation and was sold to a French businessman and converted into a slave ship.
The ship was carrying sixteen guns and a crew of seventy-five people, traveling to and from Africa to participate in the slave trade. It also obtained about 20 pounds of gold sand, and then spent about eight weeks crossing the Atlantic. After arriving in the Caribbean,
Sixty-one slaves and sixteen crew members were gone.
Only 100 nautical miles away from Martinique, they were attacked by two single-masted pirate ships, led by none other than Blackbeard, Edward Teach.
After capturing the ship, Blackbeard forced some French sailors to join him. He renamed the ship the Queen Anne's Revenge and doubled its armament.
He used evil black magic to transform this new ship. Later, under the leadership of Blackbeard, the Queen Anne's Revenge sailed across the sea and gained a terrible reputation.
In his first battle after acquiring the Queen Anne's Revenge, he became famous all over the world. He was so bold that he drove a ship to attack a British military port and brazenly robbed British merchant ships staying in the military port.
And repelled the Royal Navy that was attacking out of the harbor, which made Blackbeard go from obscurity to world-famous in an instant.
And he also besieged the port of Charleston and extorted 1.5 million pounds and a large amount of goods, which once again made him famous! Well, this is the content of the original world.
However, in the world of Pirates of the Caribbean, Blackbeard's power has not diminished at all.
With the sword of Triton, the black magic he has learned, and a group of human and zombie sailors under his command, Edward Teach's name has made people so frightened that they have to run away.
However, due to his long-term study of black magic and the relatively incomplete inheritance he received, the side effects of black magic continued to corrode his body.
As a result, his vitality was excessively consumed.
Now, Blackbeard has begun to feel this way, and he can feel the constant weakness in his body. This is all caused by incomplete inheritance, excessive research, and playing around with black magic.
Although he has a notorious reputation in the outside world, he is still a human being.
Edward Teach wanted to reverse this situation of constant body gain and loss. He was afraid of death. He had an immeasurable amount of wealth. This wealth was so much that he would never be able to spend it all in his lifetime. Moreover, the more he studied black magic, the more he
He went deeper and deeper into it, wanting to completely solve the puzzles one after another.
The feeling of added power is extremely intoxicating.
However, he was born at the wrong time and it was difficult to find a famous teacher for guidance. In addition, there was a lack of corresponding communication with colleagues. In other words, even if there were colleagues, Blackbeard would not ask for advice as an equal. Instead, he would adopt his best approach.
One of the methods he is good at is the pirate method, coercion and inducement.
He is cruel, cunning, selfish and extremely domineering. He is the kind of person who is self-centered no matter who he is or what he does. He never trusts anyone and treats everyone by taking advantage of him.
, even if it is his own biological daughter.
This can be seen from the story. Edward Teach, the famous Blackbeard, has no trace of fatherly love in him.
Some are just selfish and self-centered!
When he and his daughter were both infected with the poison of poison dart frogs. Faced with a situation where only one person could survive, Blackbeard chose himself without hesitation and let his daughter die on his behalf.
If Jack Sparrow hadn't been very aware of Blackbeard's tricks and secretly exchanged the Holy Grail, causing Blackbeard to drink the spring water containing the mermaid's tears, I'm afraid Blackbeard would have continued to do evil.
Relying on his own black magic and ship, he continues to do evil.
Therefore, you can't see any good nature in Blackbeard! He doesn't even have the most basic bottom line. He is a complete villain and a devil!
…
"What's going on, Sparrow!" Jiang Ning quietly appeared beside Jack and looked at the compass in his hand, "When can we find Edward Teach."
Jack glanced at the compass in his hand and closed the lid: "It's almost fast. With our speed, I believe we can find Blackbeard in a few days." After saying that, he praised again: "I have to say, this is really a miracle.
It’s a great boat and it’s really fast. The speed is about 20 knots!”
"20 knots?" Jiang Ning's mouth curved slightly, and he patted the rudder. "In fact, its speed is much higher than that, Sparrow."
"Oh?" Jack looked surprised, looking at Jiang Ning expectantly, "You mean, it can go faster, exceeding 20 knots?"
"Want to see it?" Jiang Ning asked him, with a faint smile on his lips.
"Of course!" Jack raised his voice and looked at Jiang Ning with great anticipation, secretly wondering how many knots the Truth could reach.
Jiang Ning did not respond. He tapped the ship gently with his fingers, and then the ship's hull was wrapped in a layer of brilliant elemental light. Then, the speed of the entire ship began to slowly increase.
"Measure the speed!" Jack ordered, and his first mate Gibbs immediately took out a rope with nodes tied one after another, each node representing a knot of speed.
"The current speed is 18 knots, 19 knots." Gibbs dragged the rope, and two sailors were helping him beside him to help him stabilize his body and prevent him from being dragged into the sea at an excessive speed. "It's already
It’s 20 knots, Jack!” Gibbs took the time to wipe the water from his face, and then his eyes widened, “It’s 21 knots, oh, my God! 22 knots, 23 knots!” he shouted loudly.
He shouted, "Jack, the speed of this ship is still increasing. It's really fast. It's 24 knots now!" Before Jack could say anything, Gibbs's shout came again. "It's 25 knots."
, now the speed has increased to 25 knots, and the speed is still increasing, 26 knots!!!" Gibbs's voice was full of surprise and disbelief. "27 knots!!!"
Everyone was shocked. At a speed of 27 knots, the ship seemed to be flying on the sea. The speed was amazing, and no one felt much turbulence.
Gibbs shouted: "Jack, I can feel that the speed of 27 knots is not the top speed of the Veritas. In fact, it can be faster, praise it!"
"What is its top speed?" Jack widened his eyes and asked Jiang Ning. His heart was pounding. So far, he has not recovered from the shock. He thought that the speed of the Black Pearl was as fast as
It was fast enough. Only now did he realize that the Truth under his feet was the fastest ship in the world, easily breaking through the speed of 27 knots. So, what is its maximum speed? To be honest, Jack was very
Even the crew members were curious.
"There is no upper limit to the maximum speed. In fact, as long as I want to, it can increase its speed without limit. However, that does not make any sense." If the ship was not protected by a barrier, the acceleration just described as slow was actually extremely fast.
, Gibbs couldn't hold the rope at all.
"Now, depending on the speed of 27 knots, how long will it take to reach Edward?" Jiang Ning asked him. Jack made a slight estimate, took out the compass and took a look, and found that the pointer has been stable at one direction point, which means black
Blackbeard's ship either didn't move. Or, his speed was so fast that Blackbeard's ship was actually at anchor.
"It won't take more than two days to find Blackbeard." Jack thought for a long time before giving a more positive answer.
"Two days!" Jiang Ning nodded, "It's not that hard to accept. Okay, just wait for two days. I hope Edward Teach can be more sensible!" After that, he left gracefully.
…
Two days later, in a certain bay, the famous Blackbeard, Edward Teach, had just done a job. He was moored in a bay to avoid the coming stormy weather, when a ship sailed from the distant sea.
The big ship headed straight for him at a very fast speed.
On the Truth, Jack pointed to the ship in the bay ahead and told Jiang Ning that it was Blackbeard's ship he was looking for!
"The Queen Anne's Revenge!"
