Chapter 151 Am I Dead? ! (Additional Updates with Monthly Pass)
Wei En stared silently at the chart that plotted the Cordo Sea and the coastlines of the four continents, thinking for a long time.
"I'll figure it out about the treasure."
"Captain," Ronan reminded in a low voice: "There are also gold pounds..."
Gold pounds?
Majafak, the Black Pearl really lives up to its name. If it occupies a black character, it really means it has a black heart, right?
Wei En took a deep breath and said, "Tell me, what are the specific conditions?"
"The Black Pearl is calculated based on the number of people on board, twenty gold pounds per..." At this point, Ronan saw Wei En's eyes suddenly light up, and for some reason, he suddenly did not dare to continue talking.
It seems that just now, the red-haired gentleman killed eighteen of his crew members without even blinking...
"Go on, do you charge twenty gold pounds per head for a boat or for a person?"
"Captain, it suddenly occurred to me that I still have some savings," Ronan raised his hand and wiped the sweat from his face. His triangular eyes were full of grievances, and he gritted his teeth and said, "I will pay for this gold pound. You don’t have to bother.”
"Oh, will you pay for the gold pound?"
Wei En touched his chin. Just now he was thinking that if he needed too many gold pounds, he would make more potions and sell them in the Nightmare Realm...
However, after listening to Second Officer Ronan's words, he suddenly felt that such an idea was very inconsistent with his status at this time.
People were killed, the ship was robbed, and the remaining people were "requisitioned" by him. How could the gold pound be left behind?
This is so inappropriate!
"You're not forcing yourself, are you?"
Ronan shook his head repeatedly and smiled flatteringly: "Captain, everything on this ship belongs to you. Without you, what would I do with those gold pounds?"
"Well, I really didn't retain the wrong person," Wei En patted him on the shoulder and said happily, "I'm very satisfied with your ability."
"Yes, really? As long as the captain is satisfied."
Ronan almost cried. The red-haired captain's character was so easy-going.
If the time and place were different, he would definitely treat the other person as a brother, no, as a father.
Until then, he noticed that he was still sitting on the chair. Damn it, how could he treat his father like this?
"Captain, sit down and I'll tell you slowly."
Ronan quickly stood up, asked Wei En to sit down, and said respectfully: "In terms of treasures, the Black Pearl has no clear standards. But according to past records, at least one spine of a deep-sea monster is needed."
"What if it were converted into gold pounds?"
Wei En raised his eyebrows, the spine of a deep sea beast? Thinking about the strength of the two he had seen before, he knew that their value was definitely not low.
Ronan's face turned bitter, "Captain, according to the current price, one spine exceeds three thousand gold pounds. I, I really can't afford that much..."
"Three thousand?!"
When he heard this number, Wei En almost jumped up.
He had been busy for so long, reporting intelligence, performing tasks for the Secret Adjustment Department, and working hard to make potions, but he had never seen so many gold pounds.
Why did the Black Pearl say it was going to take three thousand gold pounds... No, including the head fee, it was at least four thousand gold pounds.
They simply grabbed it!
"Yes, Captain."
Ronan secretly encouraged himself that this gold pound must never be released again.
It's okay to let him get 1,800 gold pounds, but if he can't even pay the 3,000 gold pounds, he would rather jump into the sea to feed the fish, even selling the ship would not be enough.
Wei En asked in a muffled voice: "When will these things be paid to the Black Pearl?"
"Look here,"
Ronan felt relieved and pointed to the position between the two routes on the chart, "This Awad Island is the station of the Black Pearl. As long as you hand things over there, you can get the letter of passage issued by them."
"Letter of passage..."
Wei En was silent for a few seconds, then suddenly laughed, "The Black Pearl's no-cost business was really successful."
Merchant ships charge 20% of the cargo, and other pirate ships charge head fees and head fees...
Sure enough, in this world, powerful people still have the final say.
Without strength, you have to accept the restrictions of Red Moon pollution, you have to spend gold pounds to buy candles to resist pollution, and you have to pay tolls!
Although Ronan didn't know what he was thinking, he was obviously not in a good mood, so it was better to remain silent.
Thinking of this, Wei En looked at the distance on the chart and asked, "How long does it take to get to that island?"
"Two months is enough. I have walked this line many times." Ronan was very confident about this and patted his chest.
"Understood, let's get there first and then talk about it,"
Wayne nodded, then thought of something, looked up at Ronan's eyes and asked, "There is one more thing I must warn you in advance."
"Tell me," Ronan bent his waist even lower, almost at a 90-degree angle, staring at his feet, not daring to show any signs of neglect.
"I hate being deceived, and I hate trouble even more,"
Wayne knocked on the back of the chair and chuckled: "So I don't want to find out that you have anything to hide, and I don't want the golden ship behind you to interrupt this voyage. Can you do that?"
"Yes!" Ronan lowered his head, letting beads of sweat hit the cockpit floor one after another.
At this time, even if you can’t do it, you must say you can!
"The best thing is this. You can sail the ship and I'll pick up the first mate and the others."
"clear."
Wayne got up and walked out of the cockpit and went straight to the bedroom at the back. We’ve already occupied the boat, so it shouldn’t be a problem to occupy two more spacious and bright rooms, right?
After the sound of closing the door was heard from the bedroom over there, Ronan stood up straight and slowly moved to the chair. He was about to sit down but felt that it was inappropriate. After thinking for a moment, he sat down on the floor.
horrible……
It's not like he has never seen powerful extraordinary beings, but people like the red-haired captain who can't figure out their thoughts are the most terrifying.
It's simply scarier than meeting a deep-sea monster.
Ronan couldn't help but show a trace of fear on his face. He didn't dare to speak out for fear that the person would hear him.
I hope that after arriving at the Southern Continent, that person will return the ship to him... No, as long as he survives!
On the other side, Wayne didn't know about his unintentional behavior before, but he was deeply "impressed" by the triangular-eyed captain. After checking that the two bedrooms were still clean, he returned to the clown theater with confidence.
I think Claire wouldn't mind that there were many people exercising together in her bedroom...
Um?
Already studying?
Wayne returned to his original appearance, pushed open the door of the theater bedroom, and heard the voices of Claire and Tina coming from outside.
"...Tina, your pronunciation is wrong. It should be m, i, meow."
"Tina, meow?"
"Very good, but there is still room for improvement." Claire's voice was slightly trembling, as if she was suppressing her inner excitement. To put it more bluntly, she was suppressing a smile.
"Keep going, remember that the ending sound must be long, look at my mouth shape, meow~"
"Tina, meow~"
"Yes, yes, that's it!"
"Meow?" Zero also made a sound of gears turning and rubbing, "Meow~"
"...Type Zero, please stop learning it. This vocabulary is not suitable for you."
Hearing this voice, Claire's smile disappeared, it didn't sound good!
Only Sharapova next to her could see through her thoughts and snorted: "Tina, what she taught is wrong, don't listen to her."
"Um?"
"Um, what?" After hearing this, Wayne stepped over and gave Claire a heads-up, "Don't bring up the child."
"Hiss, you don't like this?"
Claire covered her head, opened her crystal lips, and made a heart-stirring sound, "Meow~"
"hiss--"
Wei En took a breath and felt the hairs on his body stand up, "Stop, stop! I'm here to tell you that I've built a ship."
Isn’t this damn woman too proficient in these ways of seducing people?
Is it a natural talent, or is it an acquired skill?
Well, vote up front – she’s definitely a natural!
"Really?" Claire's eyes lit up and she grabbed his hand, "Take me to see it quickly. This time I must make that fish pay the price!"
"Fish? Is this all you care about?"
"Yeah, even though you killed a lot last night, the fish that punctured the deck is still alive!"
"It's impossible. I've already sent people to the southern continent."
"Huh? That fish is in the same direction, just right." Claire stared at him without blinking, looking extremely serious.
Wei En was almost angry. She really didn't know there was something wrong with the heading, right?
"The direction you said is the same, that is exactly the opposite of the current course!"
"On the contrary? Impossible. I kept looking at the position of the sun and adjusting the direction of the ship." Claire patted her chest and said confidently, "There is absolutely nothing wrong."
Wayne: "..."
This reference is, well, very powerful.
This is like him standing at the door of Krims Cathedral and telling people in another city-state, I will wait for you at the door of the church, see you there or not...
"What's wrong?" Claire looked at his expression and blinked, "Isn't it right?"
Wei En took a deep breath and said firmly: "No matter what you say this time, I won't let you touch that ship again!"
If Claire were to take the helm again, he might have to spend his whole life at sea.
Well, don't even think about going ashore.
"Really..." Claire's face darkened when she saw his resolute attitude.
Wayne reached out and patted her, "Unless you want to miss that mission."
"Missed? I understand..."
Claire returned to her previous charming and calm demeanor, glanced at him, and then turned her back, as if she didn't want to talk to him.
"..." Wei En was too lazy to talk to her, looked at Tina, and said with a smile: "You are coming too, this voyage will take at least a year, just enough to get familiar with the conditions at sea."
The white-haired girl walked over and took his hand, and said obediently: "Tina, I know."
"Sawa and Zero, you two remember to follow Tina closely and protect her."
Zero flicked the parchment in his hand and said excitedly: "Wrap it around me, Father."
It feels great not having to learn González!
Sharapova nodded slightly and raised her intact arm, subconsciously trying to block the mechanical eye.
"Let's go."
Wei En noticed Miss Zombie's movements and thought thoughtfully: It seems that he will have to talk to her later. If she is unwilling to accept mechanical transformation, then it will save him a lot of effort.
Just as he was about to turn the golden key, he suddenly noticed the appearance of several people, stopped quickly, took out a bottle of transformation potion from the space ring and gave it to the white-haired girl.
"Tina, do you remember what Captain Lacey looks like? Drink this potion and turn into her. For the sake of safety, we cannot show others our original appearance for the time being."
"Tina, drink." Tina nodded, took the potion and poured it into her mouth.
Wayne also drank a bottle and turned into Marco, "By the way, don't call me by the wrong name. When I get out, I will be Marco."
"Tsk, tsk," Claire turned to see his current appearance and praised, "It's much uglier than your previous appearance."
"If you don't mind being chased by the Judgment Knights of Dawn, I'll switch back."
"Farewell, the strength of those old guys is too terrifying, just keep it like this."
Wei En pouted, wasn't he afraid?
He looked at Tina, who had transformed into Lacey, and the two dolls in her hands, "Leave the clown here, his image is too recognizable... huh?"
Before he finished speaking, the clown doll slowly turned into a clown mask, and shrunk into a humane ring to put on Tina's hand.
"...So, you also want to go out and have a look?"
Wei En only felt that his teeth hurt a little. The whole style of this team stood out in four words - people are addicted to food, hiding their heads and showing their tails.
"Let's go out and take a look."
After a while, three people, a zombie, a mechanical life form, and five creatures appeared in the Ronan's bedroom.
As soon as she came out, Claire raised her legs and walked out, "I'll go out and take a look..."
"No!" Wayne pinched the back of her neck, "You can only be a puppet on this ship, and you can't be the one in the cockpit."
"I just went out to take a look,"
Claire looked at him guiltily and murmured in a low voice. Seeing his resolute attitude, she had no choice but to lower her head in resignation.
"You don't want what happened last night to happen again, do you?"
Even so, Wei Enwu held her hand uneasily and led several people out of the bedroom.
Ronan, who was in the cockpit outside, heard the movement inside, quickly got up from the ground, and stood respectfully at the door, "Captain, First Mate..."
Anyone else?
"Second mate, third mate..."
"Stop!" Wei En stretched out his hand to stop him from continuing, pointing at Claire next to him and said: "She is the first mate, and those behind will not be assigned positions on the ship."
"Understood, Captain."
"First mate, me?" Claire pointed to herself, "I'm the first mate?"
Ronan raised his eyes and glanced at her, his body couldn't help but trembled, and the sweat on his face suddenly fell, "I'm sorry, Ms. Claire, this is the captain's order."
"Do you know her?" Wei En raised his eyebrows and said, "Has Thousand Faces spread to the sea?"
Claire looked at him dissatisfied, "Isn't it normal for my name to spread to the sea? Captain Ma, Er, Ke!"
Wayne ignored her, but looked at Ronan and asked, "Then how did you recognize her? I remember very few people have seen her like this."
"Well, Captain,"
Ronan heard her dissatisfaction and quickly explained: "Originally, I only heard the name and didn't know the appearance of the first mate, but last time..."
"Last time, what happened last time?"
"Regarding the events that happened in Castor City some time ago," Ronan took out a newspaper and opened it, pointing to a photo in the corner and said, "This, it said that Ms. Claire Thousand Faces was confirmed to have died in Krims The way she looked in the cathedral..."
Claire grabbed the newspaper and looked at the photos on it - her intact face, her withered body that had been kneaded into knots, and a pair of white and tender feet, looking miserable in death.
"Who took this photo?!"
Wayne glanced at the photo and almost laughed.
It turns out that Claire died like this. It was really miserable.
The key is that at this most embarrassing time, someone took a photo of her and published it in a newspaper, and clearly wrote "Eternal Life Society, Thousand Faces, Claire's Tragic Death" as the title of the content...
Just think about it...
"Hahaha……"
"you!?"
"...I'm sorry, I'm not laughing at you. In fact, this newspaper has already published it..."
"Who told you to see it? I forgot about it, do you hear me!?"
"I can not hold it in……"
"Damn it, I have to kill him! This is so ugly!!"
