Captain Paledi took a waterproof chart, unfolded it, took a look at it, and then looked at the "companion" with blue and black fish scales on his face, and asked with an unhappy expression:
"Where's Captain Edward? Why didn't he personally come to explain the situation to me about such an important matter of attacking the island? Even if he got a seat on Vanua's seven-member council, it doesn't mean he can treat us as deck-scrubbing sailors.
call!"
The Vanua pirate with a scaly face and cloudy eyes held a scimitar at his waist. He was wearing a tough red leather armor. Judging from the badge on his chest, he should be a high-ranking subordinate of Captain Edward. He said with a gloomy expression.
: "Captain Edward has other important matters."
"I don't care what matters to you!" Captain Paledi, who had yellow teeth in his mouth, exhaled an unpleasant breath, which was thicker than the fishy smell on the Vanua pirates opposite him: "Don't think of me as a blind and deaf fool.
, now the murlocs in the sea have gone crazy, frequently attacking towns across the Wildfire Islands, and plundering passing ships.
Edward has taken refuge with the fishmen and has turned himself into neither a human nor a fish. I don't even care. Now he actually dares to order us to attack the Wildfire Islands? That is the territory of the Pentagram Tower. If you want me to die, just say so!"
"You are not the only one." The Vanua pirates said: "From Finger Bay to Zeeland Port, more than fifty pirate groups and more than two hundred ships have joined this war to cooperate with our war against the Wildfire Islands."
"What the hell are you doing?" Captain Paledi was furious: "You Vanuas have some reputation at sea, but your family does not open the sea! Come on, give it to me.
Cut off this guy's arms and legs and throw him into the sea!"
The shirtless sailors behind Captain Paledi were about to step forward when the Vanua pirate pulled out a bill with exquisite lace and glittering platinum light, and said: "This is a bill from the New Norton Chamber of Commerce, worth fifty thousand gold coins.
, has a special secret mark."
Captain Paledi's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he raised his hand to block the sailor who came forward. Although he still had a bad expression, his tone had softened a lot: "Oh? Fifty thousand gold coins? It's rare for Edward to be generous...
When did you get involved with the New Norton Chamber of Commerce?”
"You don't need to ask about this." Pirate Vanua said.
Captain Paledi was about to raise his hand to get the bill, but the Vanua pirates shrank his hand and said: "I am here this time to go to Papami Island with you. When you capture the island town, these 50,000
The gold coins are naturally yours."
"Are you supervising the war team?" Captain Parady asked angrily, staring at the sparkling note. He could even smell the high-end perfume on it.
The large-value bills of these large chambers of commerce are all made of special paper made from scrolls. They are not afraid of being wetted by sea water, and they also bear professional anti-counterfeiting secret marks. Even the people in charge of approving large-value bills in the chamber of commerce are all mages. Almost all of them are magicians.
It's impossible to fake it.
"I know that your pirate group often takes private jobs on Papami Island." Pirate Vanua said: "I don't want you to storm the towns on the island, but to sneak into the towns and then break through. You can think of the reasons yourself.
, there will be people outside to assist and cooperate."
"Do you think it's that simple?" Captain Parady retorted: "Magicians all have teleportation spells. Even if we take the town, the Pentagram Tower can send mages here at any time. A senior mage can transport all my people on the ship."
Kill them all!"
As a pirate who hangs his head on his waist, Captain Paledi is very familiar with the tactic of making promises in advance and stabbing him afterwards. The pirate groups use all kinds of dirty tricks to get money and ships.
In extreme cases, just for a mouthful of fresh water and food, you can stab the sailor next to you with a dagger. Who knows if there will really be someone to support you after you take action on Papamy Island?
For a pirate captain like him, 50,000 gold coins is enough for him to clear his name and go ashore, so that he can live a down-to-earth life for the rest of his life, but this money must be spent with his life!
"Then what else do you want?" Pirate Vanua asked.
"If you live your whole life, don't you have to leave it to your descendants in the end?" Captain Paledi said with a smile: "I have no hope myself. If we attack Papami Island, we are destined to confront the Pentagram Tower. Just giving money can't buy a way out.
, I want my son to enter the Magic Academy of Mysterious Eye!"
…
"Hey, isn't this Captain Parady? He's so happy, is something good happening to him?"
The only tavern on Papami Island was filled with pirates drinking and gambling. They stared at the tavern girls and occasionally stretched out their hands to wipe the oil while passing by, causing the other party to kick their feet in an angry manner, which caused joyful laughter in the tavern.
Captain Paredi sat by the cupboard, crushed the dried hemp nuts, rolled them up with pieces of paper, lit them and smoked twice. This method was the most stimulating and more powerful than using a pipe. He needed it most now.
This way to relieve tension.
Hearing a familiar voice behind him, Captain Parady turned his head and saw several mysterious knights coming to the tavern. The two groups hooked up like good brothers.
Supposedly, these people should be members of the official guard team of Papami Island, and should not have close contact with pirates like Captain Paledi. But these days, even if you are a pirate, you need to have official connections to get along.
long.
What's more, a remote island like Papami Island without many clear laws and regulations is basically decided by the local trading post supervisor or mage advisor. It is also a good place for pirates to sell stolen goods and park. There are many people on the island.
After all, not everyone can earn tens of thousands of gold coins and go ashore to buy a house in a big city.
"Wherever there is any good thing, I'm almost at a loss!" Captain Parady puffed out his smoke, took another sip of pirate liquor, and sighed: "The news about the fishmen's attack on the Wildfire Islands has spread all over the sea.
, the routes to the east and north from your place are all cut off, and I’ve been out of fuel and water for several times!”
The Secret Knight ordered a glass of wine and said: "I just came from the dock and saw a dozen sahuagin heads hanging on your boat. Did you break through the murloc blockade?"
"Breakthrough is nothing, how dare I take risks with my broken ship?" Captain Parady waved his hand: "I took a detour from further south, almost close to the windless zone. I originally thought there would be fewer monsters there, but I still ran into a group of them.
The sahuagins rode over on sharks to kill them. I fought hard to drive them away, but I saw that we were running out of food and fresh water, so I came to you to replenish them."
"Oh, everyone has been working hard these days." The Secret Knight raised the small wine glass that could be held with two fingers and said helplessly: "There is even less wine on the island now, and it tastes really boring."
Captain Paledi asked: "You all have the Master Master of the Pentagram Tower as your backer, so what are you afraid of? Wouldn't it be nice to let them teleport over and bring something along the way?"
The Mystery Knight shook his head and said: "Are you kidding me? 'Teleportation' is a fifth-level arcane spell. Where can we call a mage who can cast this level of arcane spell? And now teleportation is basically magic items, everything
Putting the safety of the island first!”
"What about the food? The teleportation spell can't transport a large amount of food." Captain Paledi inquired casually and shook the small wine glass: "Anyway, the spirits here are so expensive that I don't dare to drink them in large quantities.
"
The mysterious knight smiled and said: "You must save on drinking strong alcohol. The food in stock can last for two months. There are also fields on the island for farming, and some seafood can be fished from the sea. We can barely survive. If Faseno Island is willing to send a ship
It would be better to send food to us. However, Mr. Taylor of the Star Cult taught some farming knowledge to the farmers on the island, and also used the wild fruits and leaves on the island to make potions, which cured the disease.
Edema disease in few people.”
"Who? What sect?" Captain Paledi didn't understand at first.
"Oh, I forgot. You have been drifting on the sea all year round and don't know much about the big battles on land." The Secret Knight said: "You have heard about what happened in New Camelot City a few months ago, right? The Star Cult
The regiment is a force under the command of the 'Duke of Mind', and Mr. Taylor is a student of 'Duke of Mind'!"
Captain Paledi felt a chill go down his spine when he heard this. He had already prepared to stay here for a few days in the name of repairs, so that he could understand the defense situation on Papami Island and kill the main characters separately.
Although Captain Paledi looks slovenly and has a face covered in sweat, he is a mid-level warrior with extraordinary skills. He was trained as a professional swordsman when he was young. Later, his family fell into decline and he had no choice but to embark on the path of piracy.
The swordsman's martial arts, which were originally light and elegant, became a bit cunning and changeable in this pirate captain, and the battle on the sea deck was particularly fierce.
The number of mages who died at the hands of Captain Paledi could not be counted with two hands. And based on his understanding of the mage advisor on Papami Island, he was fully confident that during the raid, the mage advisor would not have time to resist.
The body and head are in different places.
However, there are students of the "Duke of Mind" on the island, so the nature of the matter has changed. Captain Parady's success at sea depends on his understanding of the situation. He has a full understanding of who can and cannot be killed.
Unlike those ignorant sailors on their own ships who, when they see someone dressed brightly, they want to immediately pluck them clean and throw them into the sea to feed the fish.
Captain Paledi would not dare to touch any of the relatives or subordinates of big shots. If he incurred the wrath of the other party, a pirate group with an unknown reputation and weak backing would only end up with the ship being destroyed and everyone dead.
Disappear quietly at sea, and no one will miss you.
"Is that...Mr. Taylor still on the island?" Captain Paledi asked with a smile as if nothing had happened: "I want to establish a relationship with such a big shot."
"Yes, and his teacher came to our island not long ago, and he casually captured a triton fish man." The Secret Knight laughed and said, "You didn't see that scene at the beginning, and a tornado casually came out.
, the thunderstorm cloud tore a big hole in the sky, and everyone on the spot was stunned."
…
"You just want me to die!"
Captain Paledi returned to his ship and yelled at the Vanua pirate in the captain's cabin: "You didn't even mention to me that the Duke of Mind himself had been to Papami Island. Then
Is this kind of person something I can deal with?! And his students are now stationed on the island!"
After a moment of silence, the Vanua pirates said: "We can be sure that the 'Duke of the Heart' is not on Papami Island at the moment."
"Nonsense! If he were on the island, could I still come back to see you alive?!" Captain Paledi jumped to his feet anxiously: "Fortunately, I haven't rushed to take action yet. If I really provoke a legend, you and I will wait.
Have your soul taken out and endure endless pain!"
"My soul has its destination and cannot be taken away by others." Pirate Vanua blinked his dull and empty eyes.
"What kind of religion do you believe in? There's no point in talking about this!" Captain Parady stamped his foot: "Let's go! We're leaving right away, we can't stay in this place any longer!"
The Vanua pirate touched the handle of the scimitar at his waist and stood up slowly. A chilling malice emanated from his body, as if he was suffocating after falling into the sea and not being able to breathe.
"You, you, you, what are you going to do?" Captain Parady took the lead in pulling out his machete: "Do you really think I'm afraid of you? When I chopped the former captain and first mate into pieces and fed them to the fish, you were still wearing crotchless pants.
!”
"Now the Supreme Lord has launched a full-scale attack again, and the mages on other islands are also busy dealing with it and have no time to come to help." The Vanua pirate said: "And I can guarantee that the 'Duke of the Heart' will not be able to return to Papami Island.
, you can let go and do things. Once the things are done, the previous conditions will take effect immediately."
Captain Paledi's eyes wandered, and he seemed to be having a fierce struggle in his heart. Seeing this, the Vanua pirates took out the note again: "I will give you these 50,000 gold coins now, but I want to join you in the operation and help you by the way.
Let’s kill the student ‘Duke of Mind’ together.”
"You...you are trying to push me into the fire pit!" Captain Parady looked worried.
"This is your chance to show your loyalty. If you don't do this, why do you think your son can enter the Academy of the Mysterious Eye?" Pirate Vanua sneered: "Hahaha, don't worry, I have it now.
With the blessing of the Supreme Lord, even an average spell caster will find it difficult to deal with a sudden attack!"
As if he had made up his mind, Captain Parady grabbed the bill and waved angrily: "Please!"
The Vanua pirates were not polite either. He walked with his head held high and his sword in hand, thinking in his mind what incredible power the Supreme Lord would give him after he accomplished his great feats.
When the Vanua pirate stepped onto the deck, he looked up and saw a bow-wielding ranger in front of him. He drew a composite longbow engraved with silver patterns, and the short spear-like black iron arrows were locked.
Own.
The Vanua pirate was stunned for a moment. The black arrow in front of him flew out of the string, like a poisonous snake spitting a message. The spiral arrow cluster shattered the invisible "mage armor", penetrated the tough rawhide armor, and penetrated the layers of demonized fish scales.
, penetrated three layers of protection one after another, leaving a big hole in the Vanua pirate's chest that could fit a fist into.
Before the Vanua pirates could fight back desperately, a quick and sharp slash came from behind him, cleanly cutting off his head.
Gululu~ Pirate Vanua's head with blue and black fish scales rolled on the deck. Even if his body and head were separated, his polluted soul still stubbornly stayed on, maintaining a trace of consciousness. He saw Paledi
The captain flicked the blade to draw blood, and then went to talk to the bow-wielding ranger with a flattering face. It was obviously premeditated.
"...Yes, you made a right choice." The bow-wielding ranger first praised Captain Paledi, then turned to look at the head of the Vanua pirate, his eyes flashed, he plucked the string and fired another arrow, completely breaking off
