As the afternoon sun in the Desert Corner was unusually hot, and the seabirds chirped overhead, Toby looked at the sky and sighed at his recent bad fate. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The small village in front of me was much larger than the last time I was captured, and the fence wall outside the village was pushing outward, and the flow of people was much denser, and the faces of the people were in a hurry, some carrying wood to the village, and some carrying baskets covered with animal skins and I don't know what was inside.

Except for the two barbarians who led the giant wolf to guard them, the others also looked at them more as they passed by, and focused more on their own work.

Silently turned his head to look at the middle-aged man beside him: Ise Jaylin, who seemed to be the henchman of the Conrad family who rescued him.

The man had a square face, the expression on his face was meticulous, and he looked at every barbarian who passed by with a serious expression, and on this sea voyage from Worms back to the Wild Corner, Toby knew how difficult it was for the man in front of him to communicate.

"Is it really okay for us to swagger over like this?" Finally, he couldn't help it, and out of concern for his own safety, Toby said to the man in as calm a tone as possible, "This is not Worms - the name of the Conrad family may not work for barbarians. ”

"It's okay, we're just here to deliver a letter. Isn't looking back, still looking at the barbarians who pass by from time to time, and when his gaze swept over the two strong warriors guarding them in front of him and the huge dire wolf beside him, his eyes revealed a look of amazement.

"Besides—" His voice was so magnetic that Toby couldn't help but sigh in his heart, this was the type of lady who lived in Worms Central.

"Besides, if you don't have direct contact, you can't fully convey the meaning of the young lady. At this point, the man finally turned to look at Toby, and said to him with a blank face:

"Since you said that these barbarians are different from other tribes, then let's take a let's see. ”

Toby looked at the serious Isis in a daze, and couldn't help but curse in his heart: this damn fate is simply playing with himself as a marionette.

After Barria was exterminated, captured by the barbarians, and escaped with the skills he learned in the alleys of Worms, Toby took advantage of the night to return to Barria's ship, the "Miss Devallen".

After dismantling the ship's small boat for search and landing, Toby escaped from the desert overnight with some food.

He couldn't operate such a medium-sized sailing ship alone, so he could only pray that the heavens wouldn't let him run into any big storm.

The goddess of fate seemed to hear his prayer at that moment, and the sea was calm for several days, and Toby did not deviate from his course in the slightest, and even the currents helped him, but in three days he miraculously returned to Worms.

He even bypassed the Pearl Islands, and didn't even see a shadow of a pirate along the way, but he was ready to join the gang if he encountered pirates.

When Platinum Harbor appeared in his field of vision as a dot and Floyne's hilly vague figure beckoned to him, Toby had sincerely thanked the goddess of fate, even though he didn't know if there were any believers worshipping the deity.

But fate played a big joke on him, and just as he returned to Worms, intending to avoid the limelight and think about the future, he was approached by the Brotherhood.

After offending Mitch Capone in the lower part of Worms, Toby certainly knew that it was far more terrifying than being held hostage by Barria, and that sometimes death could become a luxury.

Toby couldn't bear the torture and confessed to the destruction of Barria's pirate regiment and the loss of Capone's treasure in the hands of a group of barbarians.

He didn't even meet the gang boss known as the underground emperor of Worms before he was thrown into a sack by a group of thieves and thieves.

"Boss Mickey is angry and says that he wants you to accept the saddest sea burial. This was said to him by the members of the brotherhood who bound him.

It's not difficult to kill a nobody in Worms, even the sheriff of the town hall can't go without napping all the time, and those vigilantes in rose cloaks won't reach out to take care of this kind of murder in the lower district, as long as the nobles in the central district don't have an accident, what does it matter if two civilians die?

There are thousands of ways to kill, and burial at sea is undoubtedly both painful and convenient, tying his hands and feet and drowning helplessly in a sack, just thinking makes Toby feel difficult to breathe, and the sea fish who have always refused will not hesitate to eat his corpse, and it is impossible for even a piece of minced meat to surface, and there are too many unlucky eggs in Worms who have quietly disappeared.

Toby is glad that he once learned from a losing thief when he gambled in the tavern - a sharp blade hidden in his mouth.

It saved his life.

The young man had almost forgotten how he had carefully opened the bottom of the sack little by little, and then ran wildly.

All he remembered was that it was the longest alley he had run so far, and at the end of the alley, he saw the four-wheeled carriage with Conrad's coat of arms engraved on it.

Life and death are only a thin line, Toby understands that the person who inexplicably collided with the Conrad family may die, and if he falls into the hands of Capone, he will die more painfully, compared to the two, Toby chose the former.

He slammed headlong into the carriage, and after a buzzing in his brain, he could not tell what was happening, until he dimly saw the door open, and then faintly heard a pleasant female voice say something:

"Take him back first. ”

Toby finally fainted with relief, at least he knew that now that his life was saved, no matter how much he gave Capone's men a hundred dares, they would never dare to offend the Conrad family in Worms.

However, things turned out both as expected and unexpected as Toby.

He woke up in a large manor, and the first person he saw when he opened his eyes was the unsmiling Islin Jie in front of him.

After asking him about the cause and effect of the incident, Islinger hurriedly left to report.

Of course, Toby would not tell the whole truth, even under the torture of the Brotherhood, he still concealed a part that could never be said, and now he only half-truthed the fact that Barria's gang was wiped out by the barbarians in the Wild Corner, and he ran back and was chased by the gang.

Things turned out unexpectedly, and the noble Miss Conrad actually met him in person, and inquired in detail about the tribe of barbarians who had defeated the fur seals.

Toby now regretted that he had said everything, and that he must have said that these savages not only knew the lingua franca of Wotan, but also that there were several nameless people in the tribe, and such a unique tribe might have aroused the interest of the bored aristocratic lady.

"She's probably just going to add a few toys to herself, right?" Toby thought to himself, "but to risk my life for someone like me." ”

Constrained by the threat of throwing himself to the Brotherhood, and the temptation to protect him from now on without having to worry about Capone's protection.

Toby had to take Miss Conrad's most trusted men back to the Badlands by boat to deal with the barbarians who had captured him.
