[Part1·Broken Ship]
After going around in a big circle, the homeless wanderers returned to the Homesick No.
The rescue team from Sendai Port had not yet arrived. It sat slumped on the dry beach at low tide, its keel cracked in the sun, and the planks of the ship were covered with short needle-pricked hairs shed by shipworms.
In the hot summer, these molluscs cannot survive for more than a few hours without the moisture of sea water.
Flavia and Brother Hao made two rice dumplings, and the bones all over their bodies were broken into pieces. Homo sapiens relied on a panacea to stay alive, while the blood-granting monster could only slowly heal itself.
They were hung in hammocks in the crew quarters, and Xiao Min and Kai Xi took care of them in shifts.
Jason found a good position, took the few remaining bullets and food to the open deck in front of the helmsman's cabin, and looked at the silent and vast ocean in the distance.
He felt trapped, like the ship, and could only slump on the beach and slowly die.
All kinds of psychics have been used up, and the Morpho Clothes have also turned into a ball of charred and twisted molten iron through Ms. Xia Li's unique skills. The lapis lazuli guard took over the rescue mission and came to the first port of Dongma Port.
One day - he became a target in need of rescue.
It seems like everything is messed up...
The moment the two teams met, Jason realized something was wrong.
The Crying General fell into the hands of Fred Caesar and became a commodity freely traded by the two devils, and even signed a contract of sale.
Als Claudia Duran has been unable to show up for a long time, and may have once again embraced the camp of the Unitarian Church. The blood-granting monster is always closest to the immortal.
In addition to Captain Guagua and Mr. Ethan, there are eight boatmen in the Dionysus Church. If the animals are included, two little donkeys must also be included in the rescue plan.
Jason, Jason, what else can you rely on?
The enemy’s superpowers are so terrifying——
——They can change the weather, confuse people's minds, and confuse right and wrong.
They have strong monster followers, giant descendants who have received the blessings of demons from the underworld, and an entire civilian population of Dongma Port as hostages.
They are partners with the Governor, pioneers of this city, and outstanding entrepreneurs.
The once knowledgeable blue stone genius turned into a devil, the lapis lazuli guard willingly became the Wings of Light of the Eternal, and the king hunter also wanted to be the announcer for Gloria Sebastian's gambling entertainment.
After learning this information, Jason Megan was a little tired.
He suddenly felt that he was nothing. After reaching middle age, there will always be a sense of decadence and fatigue.
He took these children to Shambhala to lead the charge, but he stepped on such a fatal nail as soon as he got off the boat. It seemed that luck was no longer on his side - the goddess of luck would never protect a brave man again.
Fortunately, Ms. Charlie left some dignity for Jason. The Emperor did not drain all of Jason's mental energy, causing him to fall into a state of "Abba Abba" dementia, and he could still sit in the chair.
In front of the low bench on the deck, you can stare at the sea in a daze.
Look at these helpers around us——
——The ninth generation graduate of Galahad Knight Combat Skills. The most powerful of the four children are still in the early stages of their emergence. Apart from the duel events of knight competitions, they don’t have much actual combat experience.
Flavia is still seriously injured and her ability is to make happy candies.
As a disaster beast hybrid, Captain Guagua seems to have some psychic talent, but it is only a vocal ability and cannot go into battle to kill the enemy.
Katyusha has not thought about making progress in these years. In addition to the basic literacy in gun and martial arts, her spiritual attainments have just touched the door of cocooning, and are not even as good as those of the gunsmith's direct disciples.
First Mate Ethan is an ordinary person with partial psychic vision and only weak spiritual pressure.
Look at this team, it looks like we're going to lose.
"Dear VIP, you seem to have something on your mind?" Guagua found two bottles of orange juice from the refrigerator in the Nostalgia and sat down next to Mr. Jason.
Jason was still wearing Ms. Charlie's robe and dress, and the dry and hot sea breeze cracked the corners of his mouth.
"ah..."
Guagua held the lute in his arms and was about to play and sing a song.
"In addition to creating the miracle of life, my father also taught me to play the piano and sing. He has been persecuted by his mother's venom for many years, but he is still indulged in this kind of love, which makes him happy and talented."
"He told me that music can take away pain and troubles, that music is an extension of mathematics, and that music is the medium that communicates with the universe."
"Want me to sing a song for you? Jane Doe? Jason Megan?"
When he heard the name [Anonymous], Jason quickly waved his hand to reject it.
"Don't praise me like this, I don't deserve it..."
After all these years, Jason still thinks that he is too weak to integrate into the anonymous team.
He always lags behind. For various reasons, he makes a fool of himself during the attack process. Not to mention shooting in combat, even the task of being a bombardier is not his turn.
As for the leadership role? The one who holds up the flag?
Jason never even thought about it. When BOSS asked Jason to take over this rescue mission, he thought it would be a relatively easy job - after all, the first batch of soldiers in Shambhala's Autumn Harvest Operation were listed on the list.
Without him.
"Then drink some orange juice?" Captain Guagua handed over the bottle.
Jason hesitated again and again and finally accepted the meeting gift. Even if he accepted Captain Guagua's kindness - he was still thinking and couldn't rest his brain.
The sour juice flows over the tip of the tongue and begins to taste bitter when poured into the throat.
He suddenly woke up and cursed.
"What kind of mediocre fool would make such a bad drink? The crying general chose three kinds of sugar water with horse urine in the club with his eyes closed, and the ones he made were better than this!"
"It comes from my hometown! It comes from Eureka!" Hearing Jason's criticism, Guagua smiled instead of getting angry: "The navel oranges from the Minster Orchard were sent to the factory and were punched out by a group of twenty-year-old guys using a machine.
Assembly line product! Of course it tastes bad! Hahahahaha! Guaguaguaguaguagua!"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "But!"
Guagua came close to Jason and talked in a low voice.
"It can save the cost of treating septicemia. You can mix some low-quality whiskey with a strong soot taste on a boring journey, and it can turn decay into magic - one day it will slowly get better."
"It keeps getting better because Jason Meagan and the Unsung Heroes return to Eureka Volcano City once again."
"The last time it was seven years ago, the agricultural products in Minster's orchards were high-value cash crops of the genus Poppy, a class of the Angiosperms."
"Quack quack quack quack quack!~"
A strange and loud laughter came from the toad's mouth.
"Why is it so difficult to change your face? My hero?"
After a series of fierce battles, Jason was almost destroyed by the pressure. He was so worried that he could not control his negative emotions——
——He is a Blue Stone Man, and many Blue Stone Man are like this, defeated by their own brains.
The motivating behavior of the bard Captain Gua Gua is like casting several big failures in a row, failing to revive Jason Megan.
Sadness and disappointment were like a plague, which discouraged Captain Guagua, who also looked at the big ship with a sad face.
"When I climbed up the rope ladder to the crew room, I took a look at the cabin and keel. It seemed that the Homesick could not sail back."
"It can only come here with me, Mr. Jason, I am just a small person. Like most unknown people, I dream of having a ship of my own. This dream is constantly realized and shattered - in this turbulent world
There are ups and downs in the dangerous sea.”
"Ever since we bid farewell to the old captain and went it alone, bad luck has been surrounding us Shambhala boat runners."
"My first boat hit a sea monster. It was like a hybrid monster between a beluga whale and a squid. Its strong head and foot tentacles chewed off the three masts of this antique ship, taking away twelve lives and my last
The sloppy lady I like.”
"By the way, Ms. Sloppy is a cat. She has been catching mice in the bilge. She is a good and conscientious companion."
"My second boat was hijacked while doing business with the Midlanders in the Gulf of Aden, extradited to the Gulf of Terrafort using unreasonable but legal means, and became the private property of a local viscount. I almost
Then I sold myself into slavery. In prison, I stuffed a spoon into Mate Ethan's asshole and used it to pick the lock and escape."
"We succeeded. We followed Terrafort's fishing boat and hid in the crab nets. We could not escape the catastrophe. We slipped back to the Gulf of Aden and traveled through the waterways for more than half a year. Finally, we returned to Eureka in despair."
"I was lucky. I was only covered with bruises from crab claws, but first mate Ethan was really unlucky - he was allergic to shellfish, and as a result, his mouth will be crooked for the rest of his life. No panacea can cure this kind of trauma."
Jason laughed suddenly: "I can't imagine..."
"My third ship, for the sake of good luck, I will name it Nostalgic." Captain Guagua said, and began to shed tears: "The Maritime Silk Road between Sendai Port and Eureka has made my crew
Come and go, go and come again - there are small workers who make a lot of money and meet the right customers, and then they follow the rich people to do sales work."
"There are also men who find the love of their lives and start a family and start a business on the other side of the sea."
"It ended up staying in the shoals of Toma Port with the unknown person. I also told the brothers who helped unload the cargo in Sendai that it would just wander around in the direction of Toma for a few times, and maybe it would go back in two days."
"Miss Flavia smashed two of my pianos. Fortunately, this last one is still intact. It has not been soaked in water, and the strings are also strong gut strings, unlike steel strings that will rust."
"I don't know how to describe this story. Maybe at the end, I can make it into a song? Mr. Jason Megan?"
"I fight side by side with the nameless warriors and you, gamble with the devil, and confront the monsters in the hell world. Even if I can't do anything, I can hide behind you and cheer you up."
Before he finished speaking, drizzle began to fall from the sky.
Captain Guagua changed his expression and hurriedly hid the precious instrument in the storage box. Rainwater poured into the orange juice bottle, making the bitter concentrated juice gradually sweeter and less sour and choking.

[Part2·What the devil can’t understand]
At this time, Flavia walked to the deck in the rain. She was limping. The cracked tail vertebra was not easy to heal, and the broken legs and feet were shattered and reconstructed. The pain made her more and more awake.
"What did I miss?" Flavia asked.
Jason cheered up: "You need to rest."
Flavia held up her sloppy skirt and let the rain wash away the expensive dress. She leaned against the deck railing and chose a comfortable position to sit down.
"A guest is coming and I have to come out to meet the guest."
Blood-giving monsters are very sensitive to the scent of their own kind. Jason, who was not wearing lapis lazuli, could not sense the team on the beachhead at all.
Following the direction of Flavia's gesture, Jason looked intently - Gloria Sebastian and Duran found the Homesick.
"Is this woman the local snake arranged by the Eternal One in Dongma Port?" Jason asked.
Flavia responded: "Yes."
Jason: "Get ready to fight..."
Flavia: "Let's listen to what she has to say first, Master Laingjin, Dulan is still with her."
A minute later, Gloria climbed onto the deck from the rope ladder and brought Ms. Duran to the crowd.
"It seems that the situation is beyond my expectation. Fred Caesar is an unruly bandit and robber. Like his father, he is a shameless scum."
Flavia did not answer, but stared at her good sister Duran.
Ms. Duran also looked precariously sitting upright, leaning on the railing and sitting on the edge of the deck in the rain. She did not dare to speak without Gloria's consent.
"I seem to have missed a good show last night." Gloria stood condescendingly, standing in front of Jason, and asked Flavia: "Originally, you guys were going to stay at the Tequila Sunrise Hotel, and prepare together with the crying general.
Today’s bet? Right?”
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Flavia sneered, "Don't talk about the bet. Your darling has been captured by Fred."
Faced with Queen Sissi's ridicule, Gloria was more surprised than angry.
"How dare you talk to me in this tone?"
Flavia said bluntly: "What are you afraid of? Immortal? You also arranged this rain, right? Duran's feathered serpent's sacred blood and I are not afraid of the sun, but you have to hide under the protection of rain clouds before you dare
Meet us."
"Last night I went to sell sweets, and you and your little butler followed me. There was also the inexplicable hailstorm that forced us into Frater's hotel - this was all arranged by you."
"Dulan!"
Flavia shouted loudly, as if she was jealous.
"Sit next to me!"
Ms. Duran shuddered and silently sat back beside her lover.
The atmosphere became awkward. Gloria originally wanted to bring the hostages to negotiate terms——
——Bu Liexing has become Frater's prisoner. How to put it into the collection cabinet is just a matter of price.
As for the treasure of Flavia, tell Ms. Duran clearly what happened last night, explain it clearly, and let the old members of the Little Brotherhood see how the nameless warriors were defeated and how they were defeated - of course they surrendered without a fight.
The effect of human soldiers.
But she didn't expect Flavia's attitude to be so tough.
Jason Megan is like a defeated rooster, but this stubborn girl is unyielding and refuses to bow her head.
It would only be interesting if she signed the fate contract willingly! Only if they surrender completely would this game be worth playing!
"Why don't you surrender?" Gloria asked patiently and in a leisurely manner: "It's not even my turn to do it myself, the dogs I raise can tear you into pieces - am I not entertaining you well? I am not treating you well?
Are you not good enough?"
"If it is placed on someone else's territory and falls into the hands of the Wings of Light who don't understand etiquette, you meat dogs will only become four dishes and one soup."
At the same time, a dice was spit out from between Gloria's lips and teeth.
A powerful tidal wave of psychic energy emerged, but Flavia refused to let it go.
"I don't need your false pity, devil."
She grabbed Captain Guagua's lapel, took out the hot platinum coins from the pendant, three in total, gave one to Jason, and Guagua kept one.
"In Huacheng Bay, I have seen many friends who come to buy candy..."
The pain caused her to break out in cold sweat, which mixed with the rain.
She grabbed Du Lan's hand again, so that the power to suppress evil spirits could be transmitted to her lover.
"At first, I was naive and thought that things could be discussed. Maybe we could sit at the same table and tell our stories. Maybe we could understand each other and become friends."
"The popularity of my candies represents how painful the busy people in this city are - they need happiness, such as terminally ill patients who are hypoxic and have difficulty breathing, and can't even take a few breaths even with oxygen tubes inserted.
"
"Gloria Sebastian."
"Your soul power could have changed everything. It is so magical."
"It is thousands of times more powerful than the modified proteins and neurohormones I made. You said that you are the god of wine who brings happiness and joy. As long as I kneel down to you, all the poor people will be helped."
"If you are really so generous, why are so many miserable people born?"
"Why do I have to suffer so much before I can kneel before you and receive the help of God's grace?"
The platinum coin was about to burn through Flavia's blood-granting body. It went all the way to the palm and made a weird sizzling sound when it hit the solid bone.
"You are a hypocritical evil god. In order to protect your godhood, like Fred Caesar, how many crazy and bad things have you done?"
"I've seen the devil's ledger, just one page -"
"——Mr. Corkin Romani's lover was not sick at all, but Frater cursed her and cursed Ingram."
"This caused Kolkin to seek medical treatment everywhere, leading a wandering life with his lover. In the end, he had no choice but to appeal to the devil. After selling his flesh and blood, he had to sell his soul."
"This is just one page! Gloria!"
"There are so many drug addicts and gamblers, how many singers and prostitutes there are in East Macau, how many children who have lost their parents, how many parents who have lost their children - they all want the God of Dionysus to show mercy and kneel down to you to beg for mercy."
"How much justice has not been served, and I must beg you to go to the Governor's Palace and say a few words with the power of dice?"
"How many passionate people with lofty ideals have been seduced by you with the power of dice and turned into your private collection."
"You always show up when people are weak-willed, and for a little fun, you use a contract to decide a person's life, as if the lives of these ordinary people are just a fun in your eyes."
Gloria Sebastian's complexion became extremely ugly, and there was a trace of anger on her handsome and neutral face, as if her defense had been broken by being scolded, but despite this, she still had to maintain her grace.
Bu Liuxing won a total of three platinum coins in her hands. She did not expect that General Crying would not keep any for herself, but stuffed them all into the hands of the crew. If this silly boy is more thoughtful, he might be able to rely on Wen
The power of Long Qian and Frater fight to the death.
"I'm curious..."
Gloria regained her composure and once again put on her arrogant and proud appearance.
"Flavia Sissy Marcus, you seem to be a different person. What is the reason for your transformation?"
"David Victor made up a cute and ridiculous story for me." Flavia responded immediately without thinking: "I am a poisonous snake raised by Lawrence Madison..."
"If I spit into a public swimming pool, I can poison a dozen adults to death."
"I have no moral conscience. I have never known what gratitude is. I only know how to eat and kill. When I smell human flesh, I start salivating. When I smell human blood, I go crazy."
"Lawrence told me - this is how I should be."
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "I want to use drugs to bring people happiness. It is my talent and a career that I will stick to throughout my life."
"But Mr. Victor told me - I shouldn't be like this."
"I am a powerless vase. I will shed tears when I see someone injured. I will even vomit out of fear when I see blood."
"I want to use candy to bring happiness to people. It is my talent and a career that I will stick to throughout my life."
"These two are fighting in my body. Once they start fighting, my head will split in pain and it will drive me crazy."
"But Gloria, there is a kind of pain that completely leaves them behind. I don't want to lose more things. Mr. Victor gave me another way..."
Flavia clenched her fists, almost inserting platinum coins into her bones, and protected Ms. Duran behind her.
"Anonymous taught me how to fight against pain, how to conquer my unsatisfactory body, and there are important people and things that I need to protect -"
"——It seems like I'm not afraid of anything anymore."
"No, it's not just love, it's not just love between men and women." Flavia corrected: "You won't understand, devil!"
"The Anonymous fought in front of me for six years, and I served more than two thousand days and nights behind them."
"Helping families of criminals return to normal life, and healing soldiers with post-war mental trauma or prisoners whose crimes are not worthy of death."
"Follow the gunsmith students, become their sponsor, compete with them, and grow up together."
"Now General Crying has been beaten like a drowned dog. He is so embarrassed! No matter how many confident lies he tells, he will turn into a laughing stock!"
