0178 Rat in the warehouse

Lux was not a merchant, and she knew nothing about shipping—but Kalya knew something about trade.

Through Karya's technical guidance, Lux conducted a very professional interview in front of Plank.

Lux couldn't be more familiar with the interview process of simultaneous interpretation. Even Plank, who had been observing carefully, couldn't find any problems. Whether it was word choice or style, Lux was no different from the businessmen he had seen.

And what Planck is best at handling is this kind of businessman.

Huck and Bua also performed well.

Harker cares about his image very much, and seems to be a down-and-out Noxian nobleman; the Buya people don't say much harsh words. Although there is no actual combat test, holding a sailor knife and pulling a cable are completely different.

In trade, both guys are obviously useful.

It seems that Miss Shadow and Huck and Bua might be a good match?

After making this judgment, Plank obviously relaxed a lot. Then, just as he leaned back slightly and waited for Lux to end the interview, there was a knock on the door.

Planck frowned.

A member of the Hook Gang dressed as a member opened the door and quickly came to Gangplank's side. He lowered his head as if he wanted to say something.

"There's no need to mutter." Gangplank waved his hand, "Just say it directly. Miss Shadow is not an outsider."

"Two rats sneaked into our warehouse." The visitor was stunned for a moment, and glanced at Lux in surprise, "They wanted to steal your things, but they got into a fight because of internal strife - and now we have

It’s stuck in the second warehouse.”

"Such daring people are common in Bilgewater." Plank grinned, showing a disdainful expression, "He thinks he has some ability and covets my things... the mouse should be hanged.

At the slaughterhouse, what is there to report?"

"One of them is a bit special." The Iron Hook pirate continued, "He is very good at playing cards. He seems to be a spell caster - not a priest of the Snake Mother, but a spell caster who uses card magic like magic."

"Spellcaster, ha, that's really interesting." Gangplank seemed to be sighing at the unusual status of the mouse today, but his eyes turned to Lux across from him, "It seems I have to excuse myself for a moment, the daughter of the God of Death's

The funerary objects came to the door on their own."

"Excuse me." Lux didn't seem to notice Plank's pun at all, and said indifferently, "I just want to see the practical ability of the future first mate and second mate. They are good at talking, but I hope

Once on the ship, we can still reach our current level."

"Oh? It seems that Miss Shadow has prepared the boat?"

"That's natural." Lux nodded, "Thanks to Mr. Plank's investment, I have absolute confidence in the upcoming trade."

……………………

With two new followers, Lux left Butcher's Bridge.

She didn't say a word along the way and just walked quietly, which made Huck and Bua who were following her a little uneasy.

These two people who betrayed their captain and joined Planck knew very well that it would be difficult for them to be reused by Planck - but they also knew very well that even so, they must remain loyal to Planck.

No one wants to be used as material for bone carvings.

Although Plank gave them to Miss Shadow as his deputy, and it seemed that Plank valued Miss Shadow very much, these two guys obviously would not be foolish enough to think that they should change their families.

At least for now, their identity is still "the spies sent by Planck to monitor Miss Shadow's trade."

Therefore, Huck and Bua's attitude is very upright, and they just need to respect this shadow lady.

In silence, the three people arrived at White Harbor in Bilgewater.

This is the earliest urban area in Bilgewater Bay. It is a natural reef filled with seabird excrement. White Harbor is named after it.

Unlike the prosperous Slaughter Docks, White Harbor is basically a slum and cemetery for Bilgewater. The docks of White Harbor were once the earliest docks in Bilgewater, but now they have been reduced to a watery grave - in Bilgewater

Jivot, the dead were not laid to rest in the earth, but were returned to the sea, and the place where they were placed was the watery grave.

There are countless buoys floating on the abandoned pier in Baigang District, and under each buoy hang the bodies of the deceased and a small number of relics.

Even people who cannot live will not take any chances with these relics and remains, because they belong to the sea, and taking them would be to offend the snake mother.

Seeing Miss Shadow entering White Harbor, both Huck and Bua were a little hesitant - they couldn't figure out the situation and why Miss Shadow came to White Harbor.

Is her ship at White Harbor?

"Come here." Looking at the two hesitant guys, Lux waved to them, "Our capital is limited, and every copper herring must be spent where it should be used... Although White Harbor is dilapidated, but here

The shipyards have the lowest prices.”

Huck and Bua looked at each other.

This is true, the declining White Harbor has the cheapest shipyard - however, compared to shipbuilding, they usually produce more buoys.

"You can't go from Bilgewater to Ionia with these thin-skinned coffins." Huck tried to tell a joke. "I suggest you get a reliable ship. If it doesn't work, you can rent it..."

Just as Huck was trying to lighten the atmosphere, a bell rang in the distance.

On the Abyss moored at the slaughterhouse, the bell on the bow of the ship rang.

Then, all the bells in Bilgewater jingled.

The bell is Gangplank's summons, the pirate king's order.

Just two days ago, Gangplank had used a summons order - that time, after the bell attracted the attention of everyone in Bilgewater, Captain Harker and Captain Bua were summoned in full view of the public.

It was hung in the most eye-catching position of Butcher's Bridge.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Today, the bell rang again.

It seems that someone has provoked Planck again.

Or... Gangplank has already prepared the burial objects for the Death God's daughter.

When Huck and Buya heard the bell, they felt as if they were struck by lightning. The two people who were initially hesitant to enter White Harbor subconsciously quickened their pace and followed Lux.

Even for these two betrayers, the sound of the bell seemed like a reminder, stimulating fear in their hearts.

Amidst the sound of the bell, the two guys who had betrayed their captain lowered their heads and hurried behind Lux, and soon arrived at the dock.

When Lux stood still, the two betrayers who were frightened by the sound of the bell finally raised their heads.

Then, they looked at each other, and there was something wrong in their eyes.

This is not a shipyard, but the largest water grave in White Harbor!

"Betraitors must pay a price." The bells of the slaughterhouse in the distance stopped, and Lux's voice clearly reached their ears, "White Harbor is the best place to solve this problem."

"Are you betraying? Are you going to betray Gangplank?" Huck's eyes widened. "You will be hung under the Butcher's Bridge, and seagulls will peck at your body -"

Huck was whining to attract Lacus's attention, and beside him, Buya had already pulled out the scimitar from his waist and struck directly at Lacus.

His sword skills are experienced, this sword is silent, fast and vicious, and ordinary people have no way to parry it.

But unfortunately, his opponent is not an ordinary person.

Almost as soon as he raised the scimitar, a lightsaber pierced his chest - before the sword struck, Lux's sword turned into a stream of light and penetrated this guy's chest.

body.

At the same time, the rumble of cannons rang out in the distance.

Many ships parked in the repair shop and "under maintenance" launched salvos at the Abyss in the port without warning.

Gangplank summoned everyone in Jivot to prove his cruelty and power again, but in the end, he was bombed in front of everyone.

"I am willing to surrender!" Seeing that the situation was not going well, Huck simply knelt down and said, "You are my captain——"

It's a pity that Lux doesn't have the habit of collecting rags.

With a flash of light, Huck also fell on the dock.
