414: 221: Heaven!

Princess Yanya!

Just as Turing Duo had said, Suo Lun was extremely bold, daring to take risks even with just a one percent chance of success.

But he was also as suspicious and cautious as a fox, with every hair on his body standing on end at the slightest disturbance.

After setting out to sea, Suo Lun first went to the Secret Island base to have Sorcerer Yaomeng change his appearance.

It took more than four hours, but Suo Lun had once again transformed his look.

This time, he was still exceptionally handsome and could certainly be described as dashing.

Although he was still young, there was a worldly weariness about him.

Moreover, his skin had darkened as if weathered by many days of sun and wind.

His attire and demeanor remained rather noble, making him appear like a nobleman samurai with a penchant for adventure.

In short, there was not a trace of Suo Lun left in his appearance.

After getting ready, he did not head directly to Rock Island.

Of course, that would have been impossible; he couldn’t just go and retrieve it.

To the entire Human Kingdom, the location of the Archipelagos of Rock was a mystery.

On a map, you might find a roughly correct location, but no ship setting out to sea could reach Rock Island.

Because thousands of miles from Rock Island, the shipping routes were rife with the vessels of Rock Pirates, who would destroy any ship from the Human Kingdom without asking questions.

So, to this day, the shipping route from the Human Kingdom to Rock Island remained unknown.

And ships from the Human Kingdom generally did not have the capabilities for long sea voyages, with only a few large ships from Luan Yang City capable of braving the open sea.

For thousands of years, the Human Kingdom had no idea where Rock Island was located; it was almost the only place that the Dragon Temple had not touched.

The whole Human Kingdom worshipped the Dragon, but Rock Island worshipped the Sea God.

What to do if you want to reach Rock Island?

First, go to Pirate Haven, the only place where the Rock Pirates trade, and also where the Rock women come ashore to seek mates.

So, Suo Lun first set his course for the docks of Izumo County, from where he would board a large ship heading for Pirate Haven!

…

What kind of place was Pirate Haven?

It was seven hundred miles from Izumo County, situated on an island of several dozen square miles.

It was a paradise for men, as well as a hell.

It was where pirates conducted their trading, and it was also the only place where Rock Pirates didn’t kill or plunder.

When pirates went out to sea to rob, they took precious goods, like Gold Coins.

But pirates need to eat, to drink, and to have their fill of meat.

However, pirates couldn’t go ashore on the mainland, for if they did, they’d immediately be captured and hanged.

So, over a thousand years ago, the pirates built a marketplace on an island several hundred miles from the Human Kingdom to trade with merchants, buying meat, grains, fine wines, and of course, women, with the Gold Coins they plundered.

What began as a humble open-air market had now evolved into a colossal fair.

Thus, it was a city of pirates, where pirates made the rules.

Why was it considered a paradise for men?

Because every fortnight, Rock women came ashore in groups to seek mates, either aboard ships or in Pirate Haven.

Rock women were the most alluring women in the world.

Their figures, their strength, their suppleness, and the fiery special scent they exuded were beyond comparison to the women of the Human Kingdom.

Hence, it also became a hunting ground for Human Kingdom men seeking romance.

Here, if you were strong and handsome enough, you might catch the eye of a Rock woman, spending several heavenly nights without any strings attached.

Back then, King Quo Bian and Count Suo Long met passionate Rock women aboard a large ship bound for Pirate Haven.

Of course, Rock women were extremely selective; they wouldn’t give a second glance to anyone but the most exceptional human males.

So, among the men from the Human Kingdom who went to Pirate Haven seeking pleasure, maybe one in dozens would be lucky enough to be chosen as a mate by a Rock woman.

And the most outstanding human males might not only become chosen for mating but also targets for abduction.

What does it mean to be an abduction target?

It means that a high-ranking Rock woman, having enjoyed your company for a few nights, cannot bear to part with you, and decides to take you with her, turning a dalliance into an actual marriage.

From then on, you would become a citizen of Rock, never able to return to the Human Kingdom.

Of course, this was extremely rare and virtually impossible.

Even the exceptional Count Suo Long and King Quo Bian weren’t made targets for abduction.

Even so, Count Suo Long boldly proposed to one Rock woman and was still rejected, left without a farewell for the second time.

Therefore, Rock women were very clear in their intentions; they would engage with you physically but would never allow their emotions to get involved, let alone share a life with you.

…

Two days later, Suo Lun arrived at the docks of Izumo County.

Every day, large ships bound for Pirate Haven set sail loaded with vast quantities of grain, meat, utensils, tea, and more.

Suo Lun boarded one of these large cargo ships.

The owner of the ship was a major merchant, carrying tea and silk, absolute necessities in Pirate Haven; if delivered, they would surely sell out.

Moreover, the ship owner was also a very enthusiastic and hospitable person.

He didn’t turn away warriors from the Human Kingdom who headed for Pirate Bay, not only offering them passage without a penny, but also supplying them with fine wine and great meat.

Those on board with Suo Lun were all men from the Human Kingdom, and they were all rather handsome, some tall, some robust, and some virile, all unveiling smiles with a tacit understanding.

Without a doubt, these men were all heading to Pirate Bay to breed with the rock women.

Even Suo Lun, who had disguised himself, easily became the most handsome man in the group.

“Brother, be gentle when the time comes, leave some for us,” one man said, clapping Suo Lun on the shoulder, “Don’t eat them all by yourself.”

“Yes, yes, yes,” another young man added, “Each time, there’s only a dozen or so rock women who come to Pirate Bay to breed.

However, there are at least a thousand men from the Human Kingdom seeking adventure and seduction, competently fighting over each rock woman.

Some of the handsome men are the worst, monopolizing several for themselves.”

Faced with this reality, Suo Lun was speechless.

However, it was certain that the offspring of the rock women were very strong and beautiful, as they always chose the most outstanding men from the Human Kingdom for breeding.

No wonder the Yan Tribe, despite being sparse in number, had always prospered; each generation was very powerful, their strength rooted in their magnificent genes.

“What happens after the rock women go back with child?” Suo Lun asked.

“They find a Yan Tribe man to marry and then raise the child together,” another man explained.

Suo Lun asked, “Doesn’t that mean their Yan Tribe husbands are wearing green hats?

And raising children that aren’t their own flesh and blood?”

That man replied, “The men of the Yan Tribe don’t mind that; it’s their tradition.

Besides, the second or third child might be his own flesh and blood, but they often favor the first child, the one not biologically theirs, raising them to be strong pirates.”

Such an odd tradition—on one hand, the Yan Tribe’s men are rather pitiful, but also… quite impressive!

“Have you been here before, brother?” the Human man inquired.

Suo Lun shook his head, “No, this is my first time.”

The Human man said, “Then you came to the right place, Pirate Bay is definitely a paradise for men.

Without having slept with a rock woman, one has practically wasted a trip to the world.

You have no idea of the flavor of rock women, so fiery, so intoxicating, in no way comparable to human women.

After bedding a rock woman, going back home to one’s wife is like chewing wax.”

“Remember brother, absolutely don’t hog them all to yourself,” the Human man stressed emphatically.

Suo Lun laughed, “Don’t worry, I’m not here to breed or seduce, I’m here for business.”

“Psh, who believes that?” the Human man said, “All young handsome men come to Pirate Bay for one reason: to seduce and to breed.”

Suo Lun offered no explanation.

Then, the men in the cabin began their discussions with great zeal,

almost all the young men here were lookers, and most of them were on their third or fourth trip.

Even so, only two had ever actually been favored by rock women.

Suo Lun could tell one of them was bragging.

So, among these dozens of men, only one had truly been favored by a rock woman, suggesting the competition was incredibly fierce.

“In two days, it’s the day the rock women come ashore, and then Pirate Bay will go completely mad!” the Human man said, “I estimate there will be at least two thousand adventurers from the Human Kingdom this time.

Let’s hope it doesn’t turn into a bloody mess!”

With that said, the handsome men in the cabin were raring to go, rubbing their hands with eagerness.

…

After a day and a half at sea, they finally reached the legendary paradise for men, Pirate Bay.

Suo Lun found that this place was not at all like a city; it resembled a chaotic yet bustling mega-market more.

The sea was dotted with countless ships, with Suo Lun witnessing such an array of vessels for the first time, including merchant ships and warships.

The houses on the island were very dense yet not tall due to the strong winds here.

Pirate Bay was small, but the streets were jam-packed with a variety of races.

There were countless pirates with curved sabers at their hips and ample numbers of bountiful merchants, and of course, brothels were never in short supply.

Of course, an enormous group there consisted of the handsome men from the Human Kingdom.

Or, to use another term, seducers, or adventurers.

On the ship, Suo Lun had heard about two thousand adventurers.

But upon arriving at Pirate Bay, he realized there were far more than just two thousand.

Just the number of young handsome adventurers he saw on the streets amounted to much more than just two thousand, and more than double that.

Moreover, the business in the brothels on the island was utterly sluggish since the rock women were arriving tomorrow.

Young, beautiful, and fiery rock virgins, with such delicacies available, who would be interested in the common offerings of the brothel?

Also, a secret buzz was circulating on the island.

Tomorrow, along with the rock women coming ashore, would be the princess of Rock Island, so stunningly hot that she could captivate the Sea God and outdo the Sea Witch.

In an instant, all of Pirate Bay plunged into a complete frenzy!

It was like a grand festival, with everyone eagerly awaiting tomorrow’s arrival.

Tomorrow, the rock women come ashore!

And with them, a chance to see the legendary Sea Witch.
