Chapter 358
Qiyu touched his abdomen and seemed to know the answer in his heart.
"It's probably a physiological reaction, forget it... I, the mighty Demon King, can't lose to my body, so I have to be more diligent."
Qi Yu regained his energy and said, "It's time to make a magic weapon for my junior to practice with. If you don't practice with it, you'll be dead."
"Okay, okay!"
Rin nodded repeatedly, his eyes bright: "That material..."
Qi Yu rolled his eyes at him: "Did your head freeze due to the cold wind? I asked you to collect all the magic weapon materials above dark gold level and the day lilies were cold."
"I...I have money."
"Let's keep the money to buy milk powder for my daughter."
Qi Yu lifted his chin and said, pretending to be frivolous: "Eat a soft meal with peace of mind, I will take care of you."
Rin's strong desire to win didn't exist at all at this point, probably because the head of the family was her mother, and the family's allowance was based on her expression.
Regarding the so-called "eating soft food", Rin's self-esteem did not fluctuate at all, and even added a sentence.
"It's best to have both defense and control. It would be even better if it can reach the epic level. I also want to go to the legendary level..."
"You're your age, and it only takes a year to make an epic magic weapon. Do you want to see me working overtime with a big belly?"
Lin smiled and felt that her request seemed a bit high.
The production of magic instruments takes too much experience, and Qi Yu cannot always devote himself to it.
"However, when you said that, I remembered that I originally designed a dark gold-level magic weapon and already had a base frame. Later, because of some minor problems and other things on hand, I decided to Put it aside for now.”
Lin's eyes lit up, and he diligently peeled an orange for Qiyu and ate it with his own hands.
Elise asked on the side: "Do you want to continue making it?"
"Well, it can save a lot of time."
Qiyu enjoyed Rin's service with peace of mind, and said: "At that time, it was because the purity of the material was insufficient. There was really no time to purify it, but now it is no problem."
Thinking of this, Qiyu casually mentioned the issue of related materials.
Rin only had a superficial understanding of magic tools, and the same was true for Elise, who had learned everything from textbooks. When it came to high-level magic tools, she was blinded and could only nod her head in agreement, and answered "yes, yes, yes" to everything she asked.
While they were chatting, the speed of the ship suddenly slowed down, and then the sound of rapid footsteps came to the door.
"Dong dong dong."
There was also a knock on the door.
"Come in."
The captain wearing light church armor came in and said, "Your Highness, we found a suspicious fleet. I judge that it is pirates."
"pirate?"
Lin was not surprised when he heard this. Their ship had left Holy City for three days and had already left the safe sea area. It was currently near the Suweidin sea area.
It's winter now, and some of the islanders in Suweidin are half civilians and half bandits. After the winter comes and they can't fish, they turn into pirates. In previous winters, pirates were more rampant here.
However, these pirates themselves are not large in scale. They like to attack small merchant ships and caravans, and they do not dare to attack military ships at all.
"They are pirates. Their ships have been modified and have hidden artillery. Their subordinates can recognize them at a glance."
The captain then asked: "Your Highness, can we take action?"
Rin thought for a while and stood up: "I'll go take a look first."
He wanted to confirm the situation of the pirates with his own eyes.
If there are some powerful pirates, they have to be eliminated directly for the sake of route safety.
After entering the cab, Rin sat directly in front of the lookout mirror and carefully observed the group of robber ships in the distance.
The leader was a large converted merchant ship, followed by some medium-sized ships, five in total.
Under the captain's explanation and guidance, Rin finally discovered the modification places of several ships and the hidden artillery ports.
There is no doubt that this is a pirate. Regular caravan forts have standards, and they will never be hidden and privately modified like this.
This group of pirates is not large in scale, but it is still a threat to the caravan.
There were many people standing on the deck, wearing fishermen's or sailor's clothes. They couldn't see clearly from a distance, but it didn't feel good to Rin.
There seemed to be a few people sitting in the middle, but they couldn't be seen clearly.
Rin stood up and ordered: "Pay it forward."
The captain immediately gave the order, and the ship and the escort ship moved towards each other at full speed.
The other party also noticed the movements of the warship here, knew that he was exposed, and quickly sped away.
It's just that their speed can't compare with the warship. In less than half an hour, the ship has already entered the combat range and started firing from the bow cannon.
The warships used magic cannons, which were much more accurate than artillery. Two cannons hit the opponent's modified ship, shattering the crude defensive barrier and creating a crater on the side of the ship.
The opponent's ship is getting slower and slower, and the warship is already shoulder to shoulder with it, with more than twenty magic cannons on the side aimed at the opponent.
The captain shouted through the loudspeaker: "Put down your weapons immediately, lie down on the deck and surrender, or go down and feed the fish!"
Forced by the force of the warships, the pirates were unable to fight back, and they all fell down one by one in despair.
After the two ships connected, the crew boarded the ship one after another and controlled a group of people.
Soon, several people led by someone were caught in front of Rin.
Several people knelt on the deck. Knowing that Lin was the highest-status among them, they kept shouting injustice.
"Young Master, we are just an ordinary fleet! There must be some misunderstanding here."
"Misunderstand?"
Rin looked at them and sneered: "You are all big and strong, and you have scars. Would a proper caravan be like this? And why are you running? You are guilty of running away when you see the church flag?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a crew member jumped over from the opposite ship and threw a flag to the ground.
"Your Highness, we found the pirate flag, and we also found more than 20 people they held captive."
Now, there was no point in quibbling, and Rin waved his hand.
"When these pirates waited for supplies at the nearby port, they also judged and brought the people they held captive here first."
After waiting for a while, many ragged people were caught on the deck. They were all older, and there was a young child who looked a little demented.
When several people came to the deck, they cried about the pirates' atrocities and were grateful to everyone.
When Rin asked about the situation, he found out that some of these people took the same passenger ship, which was attacked by sea beasts halfway. Only a few people survived and were rescued by a passing merchant ship.
Unfortunately, misfortunes never come singly. The merchant ship was attacked by pirates soon after, and they and the caravan fell into the hands of pirates again.
The young men and women were sold by the pirates, and the remaining ones were of poor quality and had to be taken to a farther place to be sold.
After listening to their experience, Lin ordered someone to take care of them and help them contact their families to return home.
At this time, the confused child suddenly raised his head, looked around, and asked foolishly: "Brother Ayang? Have we arrived at that Huosi Town? Will we be able to reach your home soon?"
When Lin heard this familiar name, he was stunned for a moment, and then heard an old man sigh.
"Alas, this pair of brothers is so pitiful, one is stupid and stupid, and the other has a strange disease and is festering all over his body and can't see the sun."
Chapter 6 Something is wrong
It seems that a flash of lightning flashed through Lin's mind.
"Festering all over his body..."
Just when he was about to capture it, Xiye and Qiyu spoke at the same time; "Can't see the sun?"
As early as when he heard the sound of the cannon, Xiye came out of the training room and stood silently behind Qiyu.
Lin turned his head and looked at them, knowing that they were thinking the same thing as him.
The last vampire incident was too weird, and several people actually remembered it in their hearts. Now when they heard the name Huo Sizhen and the disease mentioned by the old man, they couldn't help but think of it.
"Yes, we all live in the same room. I thought his disease was only on his neck, arms and face. One time when he changed his clothes, I saw that it was all over his body."
"You are wrong. It was not so serious at the beginning. I asked him, and he said that his disease would get worse when exposed to sunlight, and it was itchy and painful."
"Anyway, the sailors on the ship were afraid that his disease would be contagious, so they made a separate room for him. He stayed in the cabin all the time and told us that he would see a doctor when he got home."
"He is a very good young man, but it's a pity that he disappeared when the monster attacked. He may be gone. Poor him. This child is still looking for his brother. "
Lin asked hurriedly: "Did he mention his family?"
"It seems that he said that he is the youngest son in the family, and there are two older brothers in the family. As for this silly child, he should be adopted by Ayang."
At this time, even Iris realized something and widened her eyes: "Is he from XX village?"
"Oh, yes, I heard that it is this."
Lin's face sank, very ugly, and asked word by word: "Does he have other abnormalities, such as long and sharp teeth, and crazy attacks on people?"
The people present looked at each other, a little confused.
"I shouldn't... Speaking of teeth, who would pay attention to that, but he didn't go out two days before the monster attack, and he ignored everyone. "
At this time, the somewhat demented child suddenly said: "Brother Ayang, ah wu ah wu bite yourself, hehe."
"What did you say just now? He will bite himself?"
Lin looked at the child hurriedly, and the demented child smiled at him. "Brother Ayang is hungry, and so am I. I am so hungry and want to bite myself."
Lin saw that he was still crying hungry, and then she remembered that these people might not have had a full meal since they were captured by the robbers, so she asked someone to arrange food for them, and she took the child to the entertainment room alone.
Lin took out some food and drinks from the space and put them on the table.
On the other side, Iris washed his face and hands, and took him to sit on the sofa.
When the child saw the food in front of him, his eyes lit up, but he didn't dare to reach out to grab it, but just stared at it eagerly.
Lin then noticed that the boy was at least ten years old. Before, his face was dirty, and he was much shorter than other children of the same age, so he thought he was only five or six years old.
Lin pushed the plate and raised her chin towards him: "Aren't you hungry? Eat quickly."
The child just smiled foolishly: "Brother Yang said that you can't eat anything given by others casually, or you will be caught by bad guys."
"Huh? This young master is not a bad guy... No, even if this young master is a bad guy, he is not interested in a little kid like you."
"Little Lin, don't scare the child."
Iris comforted the little boy softly. She was born with super affinity. The child was persuaded in a few words. In addition, he was so hungry that he reached out to grab the food from the plate and stuffed it into his mouth.
Lin saw that his face was full of crumbs, and he took out a napkin with disgust to wipe his mouth.
"No one is fighting for you, why are you in such a hurry to eat."
The silly child didn't care and just buried his head in eating. He ate a lot and drank a large glass of beverage. Then he burped and continued to smile foolishly.
"Since you are full, let me ask you, when did your brother Ayang start to get sick?"
The child didn't quite understand and just nodded.
Lin thought for a while and asked again: "That is, when did you start to feel itchy and scratch?"
After saying this, the child finally understood.
"Come out of the island, scratching."
"What island? Did you meet on the island?"
"Island...Island..."
He thought hard for a long time, but couldn't remember the name, so he just said: "The bad guys on the island captured Brother Ayang and me, and fed us black water, lots of black water, dirty and smelly, Brother Ayang felt itchy after drinking it."
Hearing this, Xiye tightened his hand holding the sword and said in a deep voice: "Brother, I suspect that it is not a strange disease or a vampire at all, but someone used it as a test subject."
As a long-term test subject, Xiye is very sensitive to this and is particularly angry.
"That is to say...that is to say, Ayang may have killed his family in a frenzy."
Iris widened her eyes, recalling the miserable family she met in the village, and she was very unbelievable, her eyes were full of tears.
Xiye on the side was even more indifferent, with anger hidden in his eyes.
Rin could understand their feelings and comforted them: "We will definitely investigate this matter."
