Chapter 016
"Huh?"
Seeing the expressions of these three people at this moment, as if they were struggling with something, Wang Hai couldn't help but be stunned. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Well, I really don't care who you are, you just need to help me get the crystal and metal materials. ”
Hearing this, the middle-aged man named Campbell, who seemed to be the most vocal of the three, shook his head.
"Thank you Captain Tiffany for believing in us, and we are amazed that you would give us such a great deal of power and benefit as we met for the first time, without any power, which we could never have imagined, and even surprising. ”
As he spoke, he slowly bent down and made an extremely special salute to Wang Hai.
It was because of Campbell's crepe words that Wang Hai, who made his head a little big, was stunned again after seeing his action.
One leg is half-bent but does not land, and his right hand rests on his left shoulder like a knight's courtesy.
His head hung down, and his eyes focused on the tips of Wang Hai's shoes.
This etiquette that Wang Hai had never seen before made him feel confused for a while.
In addition, the tall man Zahn and the beautiful young woman Seli, and even Murphy, who had been standing silently on the side without saying a word, they didn't seem to expect Campbell to make this salute to this little Lori, and the three of them were shocked on their faces.
However, after seeing Campbell bend down, they glanced at each other, and their eyes suddenly became very solemn, and they bent down at the same time as Campbell, and made that somewhat strange courtesy to Wang Hai.
"This ...... This is the knightly etiquette of Noxus?!"
Just when Wang Hai was still a little dazed in the face of the movements of these three people, Baker behind him said in surprise: "You guys...... You are Noxian nobles?!"
"We are Noxians, but not nobles. ”
After a moment of silence, Campbell stood up, his face solemn.
"Or, unlike Piltover or the Federated de Macia, we don't have such a nobility in Noxus.
There is only a difference between a military man or a non-military man. ”
Wang Hai's brows gradually furrowed.
He could sense that the identities of these three people should not be simple, but he didn't expect them to be Noxians.
Turning his head slightly, Wang Hai glanced at Baker quietly from the corner of his eye.
For a man who has been dubbed the 'Noxian mongrel' since he was a child, the word Noxus should be Baker's most disgusting thing.
However, Baker's face was still calm, except for being a little surprised by the identities of these four people, there were not many overly aggressive expressions, which also made Wang Hai feel a little relieved.
"So, what are you trying to say?"
Paying attention to them again, Wang Hai said in a deep voice: "Actually, I felt that Murphy was a little unusual from the beginning, whether it was conversation or etiquette, except for being a little timid, it was not what a real poor person should be.
It should be your arrangement to let him go to the tavern of the Celtic Pirates, right? Not only can he exercise his mind, but also get some information for you. ”
Speaking of this, he sneered: "Since last night, he has been sneaking around in the backyard of the tavern for something, he should be using a special method to communicate with you, right?"
Don't look surprised, contrary to what you might think, I'm not a brutal murderer. It's just that in many cases, killing people is not my intention.
You don't pose any threat to me, you don't bother my plans in any way, and I certainly won't do anything to you. ”
Ignoring the surprised expressions of the four of them, Wang Hai sighed, and his face became more and more impatient.
"I don't want to repeat it again, I'm not interested in you at all, I just want high-quality materials and crystals. Got it?"
"Hear me out, Captain Tiffany. ”
Campbell recovered from his surprise and said anxiously to Wang Hai, "We don't mean anything else. It's just that since we've agreed to join Captain Tiffany's power, it's no longer good to hide our identities......"
"Ah, it's okay, you guys keep hiding, I don't want to hear it. ”
Wang Hai waved his hand casually, stood up, and prepared to walk out the door.
"I still have a lot of work to do, so start the rebuilding plan now, I'll give you a week for the first batch of materials, and I'll send them to the tavern in a week. ”
However, as soon as he got up and raised his legs, Baker, who had not spoken much, said, "Tiffany, you'd better listen to what they're going to say." ”
Wang Hai frowned slightly and looked at Baker.
"Huh, who are they, or is it important to me?"
He leaned into Baker's ear and whispered, "We'll only stay here for more than half a month at most, so it's better to cause less trouble." ”
Hearing this, Baker shook his head.
"That etiquette just now is the etiquette for Noxian soldiers to swear allegiance. ”
Taking a deep breath, he looked at Campbell with a hint of deep meaning.
"The soldiers of Noxus all value their glory more than anything, even their own lives.
You're a pirate now, and if they're a serving Noxian soldier, there's no way they'll be able to do that to you as a pirate. ”
"Huh?"
Wang Hai blinked: "You mean to say that they are lying to me?"
"No! we didn't lie to you!"
Seeing Lori's frowning and questioning expression, Campbell's voice became more urgent.
"I don't think they need to lie to you. ”
Baker continued: "The etiquette is not as simple as I say, so you'd better listen to what they have to say. ”
"Yes, Captain Tiffany, listen to me first. ”
Campbell glanced at Baker gratefully, and said to Wang Hai with a sincere look: "We ...... We are actually former Noxian soldiers, but we belong to the reformist squadron commander-level civilian ......
So, apart from Zahn, neither Seree nor I have the ability or strength to go into battle and kill the enemy. ”
Wang Hai was puzzled: "Clams, reformers?"
"Yes, you may not know very well, but in the Noxian army, there are many people who are dissatisfied with the iron-blooded military rule of the Noxian Empire and want to carry out reforms. ”
Speaking of this, Campbell hesitated for a moment, and then continued: "Under the leadership of Lieutenant General Hain, our plan to launch a military mutiny was discovered by Svein in advance.
Except for the three of us who escaped from Noxus City, all the rest of the reformists were wiped out by Svein in the purge a month ago. ”
A look of loneliness flashed in his eyes, and Campbell sighed deeply.
"The children and families of those generals were only partially rescued by the three of us.
After half a month at sea, we finally escaped to the island of Beaglewater.
Revenge or something, we've given up completely.
We also know that without enough strength and strength, it is simply impossible to survive in this land of lawlessness.
Now, the three of us just hope that these sacrificed comrades, the old, weak, women and children can continue to live. ”
