Lily hummed a tune and followed Robert and his party. She accidentally caught a glimpse of Aurelia's expressionless face and asked curiously: "Aurelia, what's wrong? You look depressed?"
Aurelia raised her eyebrows and shook her head: "Nothing, nothing."
Lily looked at her with a smile, shook her arms and said coquettishly: "Just tell me~ Why are you unhappy?"
Aurelia looked at Lily's cute appearance and couldn't keep a straight face. She sighed, touched Lily's head and said: "You and your mother are really different... The one named Fan
The young man seems not suitable to act with us, why should we force him to follow us?"
"If you want to say why..." Lily thought for a while and said seriously, "Because his taste is different from yours, so we can drink them together."
Before she finished speaking, Lily couldn't help but laugh, causing Aurelia to pull her cheek.
"Actually... I can't explain clearly." Lily's expression was a little confused, "I always feel that there is a special aura on Fan's body... I seem to have encountered it somewhere... but I have never been able to figure out what it was like.
Where have I encountered this aura..."
"Aura?" Aurelia frowned, glanced at Van who was walking in front, and said thoughtfully, "He does have a power from the elves..."
Hearing Aurelia's words, Lily shook her head and said: "No, I don't mean this kind of breath, I mean...um...how to put it? It's like knowing each other for a long time but forgetting who the other person is, and
My intuition tells me that something good will happen with him around. My intuition is very effective!"
"A good thing?" Aurelia was noncommittal, just shrugged and said nothing.
Not long after Lily and others returned to the Backwater Bar with Robert, the Dragon Spear mercenaries were also brought over by Mai from the Dead Water Bar. It turned out that while chasing Kaz, the Dragon Spear mercenaries were discovered by the city guards.
And stopped, while Kaz forced a breakout. Although the city guards rushed to pursue him, there would definitely be no results.
Lily found that Ji Ye's expression had become a little gloomy since Kaz appeared. Lily couldn't help but asked curiously: "What's wrong? Ye Ji?"
Ji Ye glanced at Lily and said seriously: "I think... the appearance of 'Prisoner' Kaz is not accidental..."
"Oh? How do you say that?" Lily also felt that it was too strange for Kaz to suddenly have a reflex, but speaking of it, the appearance of the violent muscular man was also very strange, and he inexplicably saved Lily and her group.
Ji Ye smiled bitterly and said: "The hunchback dwarf named Saibo is the guy I protected when I met you. The mission I received said that Saibo was being chased by a group of mercenaries and needed to be rescued as soon as possible - although
From what I know, Seb is not a high-ranking member of the Book of the Dead, but he is favored by those high-ranking officials for some reason."
"Fancy it? Why? Just the flesh and blood monster he made?" Lily said disapprovingly, "That kind of thing is far from the legendary God of War Patchwick. You know, I was defeated by it back then.
How many times~"
"God of War? Patchwick? Tuanpu?" Apparently the words in Lily's mouth made others feel a little confused.
Lily laughed and changed the subject: "Then what? That little dwarf who is uglier than Gulu was spotted. What does it have to do with Kaz's appearance?"
A trace of doubt flashed across Ji Ye's face. She shook her head and said, "I'm not sure...but I think...Kazi may have taken action to save me."
Lily's eyes widened and she said in disbelief: "Save you? Why? Ah... By the way, you were originally from the Book of the Dead..."
Ji Ye's eyelids twitched, and he did not defend anything, but continued: "Maybe it's because I was captured by you in order to cover Cyber's retreat before, and the Book of the Dead wanted to rescue me... No, they might have wanted to.
Know whether I have rebelled or not!"
Lily also frowned, stroking her smooth chin with her right hand, and nodded thoughtfully: "I see... But that muscular man should have a higher status in the Book of the Dead, right? I actually sent him to save you, is it possible?
Do you have any other secrets in your body that would make the Book of the Dead worry about you? Ah! That’s right! That part!”
Ji Ye looked at the strange part in his hand that could trigger the stop of time, and had a bad feeling in his heart - he accidentally discovered this strange part when he was exploring a ruins in Hilland, but
Not long after, he was inexplicably drawn into a space door that suddenly appeared, and was then taken to Gasain. What was even more strange was that this part seemed to be only available to him. When he met the man who claimed to be the Holy Lord,
He also tried to use the mysterious black-robed queen, but failed. Then the Holy Lord asked her to help the Book of the Dead do things on the pretext of helping her return to Hilland... Although he was disgusted with the actions of the Book of the Dead in his heart,
But in order to return to his hometown, he had to assist the Book of the Dead.
Ji Ye didn't tell anyone else about her deal with the Holy Lord, not even Lily. She knew that she might be jealous of others if she told her. Her master might not care.
This can be seen in the attitude of the young man from Van. But what Ji Ye is really worried about is Aurelia, who has the closest relationship with him except Lily, and the group of Dragon Spear mercenaries who have a grudge against the Book of the Dead.
Maybe he could find some time alone with Lily to tell her this matter, but Aurelia was following Lily almost all the time, so it was difficult for him to find the opportunity.
That part obviously hides some secrets. I am afraid that the mysterious Holy Lord knows this secret, but for various reasons, although the Holy Lord did not snatch the part, he was very concerned about his whereabouts. Ji Ye guessed that the Holy Lord ultimately wanted to achieve
If he had an ulterior motive, he would use this part. And because of his relationship, the strange abilities of his master were also targeted by them.
Ji Ye, who felt guilty, smiled bitterly, nodded and said: "It's very possible... and Kaz suddenly appeared today, I'm afraid it was to prevent Cyber from being killed by you... I'm afraid the Book of the Dead must be somewhere
Take advantage of him."
"It's useless to continue speculating here. It's obvious that those damn bastards are planning something!" Garudo took a sip of rum angrily, then smacked his lips and looked at Captain Sirla, "Captain,
Let’s go to Dix to the sea right now! Let’s go to their lair to seek bad luck for them!”
Silla glanced at Garudo and shook her head. Robert said calmly: "There is no ship going to Dix now. Such a big change has happened in Dix. No ship dares to risk going there. And
On weekdays, not many ships are willing to sail from Otez to Dix, because the north of the East China Sea is the territory of the Sea Dragon Clan."
"Are we just going to let the enemy escape and ignore it?!" Garudo started to shout, but Silla immediately raised her hand and pushed him back to the chair: "Don't be impatient, I didn't say not to go, now we
We can’t contact any ship willing to go to sea, so even if we want to go, there’s nothing we can do.”
"If you really want to go to sea, it's not impossible." Robert's words made Garudo's eyes light up, and Robert pursed his lips and pointed at a drunken drinker lying on the bar with disheveled hair and snoring, "
He has a boat and his sailing skills are good. If you want to go to sea, you can ask him."
"Is he? A pirate?" Garudo seemed to have some impression of the drunk guy. He should be a pirate who often hangs out in backwater bars. "Then we might as well buy a boat and paddle across!"
Robert chuckled, as if he was laughing at Garudo, which made Garudo furious: "Haha... paddle over? Boating on the sea is completely different from rafting in small lakes. Without experienced experience and rich navigation knowledge,
If you want to go to Dix from here, unless you are blessed by the gods, it is absolutely impossible."
"He will have a wealth of knowledge and experience?" Not only Garudo, Lan also pointed at the young man who looked a little younger than himself and was only about twenty years old with a look of surprise. Fan, who was sitting aside and thinking, heard this
He glanced at Lan's words, and was surprised to find that he seemed to know the drunk man - when he was looking for Kaz, he had talked to him! It seemed that his name was Jacks or something else...
"His parents were once the most famous navigators in Otez." Robert picked up a cup and was about to wipe it with a rag, but was snatched away by the bunny girl Rapp on the side, as if she didn't want to see him use his disabled cup.
Holding something in his right hand, "They once successfully crossed the waters of the Sea Dragon Tribe, arrived at the southern part of the Garsain continent, entered the territory of the Orc Empire, and drew a sea map. Later, they planned to draw the section from Otez to Bartleya.
The sea chart, which the elves called "the route that humans cannot complete", was lost after approaching Bartleya. He has been learning navigation skills from his parents since he was a child, and not long ago he was the most powerful seaman in Otez.
The thief Blackbeard sails the ship. If you don't trust pirates, he is the best candidate - he is not a pirate now. Although he has his own ship, he actually has no sailors..."
"Wait! No sailors?!"
"Wait! Blackbeard!"
Garudo and Lily have completely different priorities. Lily really wants to complain about why there is always a well-known pirate nicknamed Blackbeard among pirates. Although she also admires the legend of Blackbeard, this is too stupid.
Bar!
But if you think about it carefully, few people care about their appearance at sea, and it is normal to have a beard. In Gasain, people with black hair are very rare, so it is not unreasonable for the big black beard to be used as a nickname.
Understandable.
"Sailors are not a problem." The bunny-eared girl next to Robert was obviously dissatisfied with Garudo and Lily's surprised performance. She glanced at them and said angrily, "In Otez City, as long as you yell casually, you will be punished.
There will be a large group of idle sea boys coming here to earn some extra money. But the place you want to go to is Dix, and I’m afraid not many of them are willing to go on the boat.”
While others were discussing, Fan came to Jacks with a drink, pushed him, and called his name, "Jacks, Jacks, wake up!"
"Who's calling me! I'm sleeping soundly!" As if he was dissatisfied with others disturbing his sleep, Jacks pushed away Fan's hand and shouted angrily, but when his misty eyes saw Fan, he suddenly became happy, "
Haha! It turns out to be you! You actually have the nerve to come to me! What did we say at the beginning..."
Fan scratched his face in embarrassment and said apologetically: "I'm sorry... It's not that I don't want to come to you for a drink, it's just that I couldn't get away some time ago..."
Jacks laughed, pushed Fan, and burped. The strong smell of alcohol hit his face: "Don't come here, you guy! You were practicing boxing on the beach some time ago, and you ignored me when I called you.
, is this called being unable to pull away?"
Fan's expression became even more embarrassing - during the period when Kaz was bewitched by the power of death, his mind was a little blurry. Although he can still remember what he did now, thinking about it now, he seemed to be a marionette at that time.
, the body is completely out of control of one's own reason: "Because of various reasons..."
"Haha, it doesn't matter so much. Since I'm here, you will pay for my drinks today - as compensation for breaking the appointment." Before waiting for Fan to agree, Jacks shouted to Robert, "Boss, my
This guy will pay the bill!"
Seeing Jacks' actions, Fan could only admit it with a wry smile.
Seeing that Fan and Jacks looked familiar, Lily asked curiously: "Fan, do you know this guy?"
Fan nodded and said: "We had a chance relationship before..."
"Nonsense!" Jacks immediately interrupted Fan's words and shouted, "How many times have I seen you! Yeah? When did so many beauties come here? Hehe~ Little beauty, do you want to have a drink? I'm treating you.
!”
Looking at Jacks's sultry drunk face, Lily stuck out her tongue and said, "It's better to avoid it. Uncle, you look so drunk. If you drink any more, I'm afraid you'll fall asleep."
"Uncle..." Jacks pointed at himself in stunned silence, and then looked at Fan beside him, "Am I so young?!"
Jacks is actually a little younger than Fan, but people who often spend time in the sun and wind on the sea always look more...mature.
Fan smiled helplessly and changed the subject: "Jacks, I heard that you have a ship..."
Hearing Fan's words, Jack suddenly narrowed his eyes and looked at Robert: "What? These guys want to go to sea?"
Robert shrugged and looked at Silla. Silla understood and came to Jacks: "Hello, Mr. Jacks. We want to go to Dix because of some important things. Mr. Robert said that only you can
Take us out to sea..."
"No!" Jacks refused without hesitation. He said with a lazy expression, "I can rent my boat to you, but if you ask me to take you to sea... that's impossible."
