"Huh...... You can ask for the first message, and I will answer it for you for free, so my sincerity is big enough, right?"

The old pirate took off his hat and carefully took a sip of the fruit wine from the wooden cup, and enjoyed it with a look of intoxication.

Butterfly moved her shoulders and changed to a comfortable position, and her wings behind her were temporarily tied with ropes, so she was a little panicked.

"So...... Julianne, Queen of the Sea, do you know her whereabouts?"

"Of course...... cough cough cough ...... Ahem, ahem. The old pirate pinched his throat from the fruit wine, and looked at Butterfly with a flushed face, "This ...... This ......"

The old pirate is bitter in his heart, he is too difficult, how can anyone dare to ask the four pirate kings as soon as he comes up? This is not according to common sense.

"Why? I don't know?" Vaughn added at the right time.

"No, ahem, of course not, in the entire pirate kingdom, how can there be news that I don't know?" the old pirate argued.

"But...... The Pirate King is too special, and if they knew that they had been betrayed, I would have taken a great risk......" The old pirate rubbed his throat with fruit wine, his fingers rubbing unconsciously.

"I think you're a liar, and you dare to trick our Jackdaw?" Vaughn suddenly showed a fierce expression, and was about to draw his sword.

Seeing this, Butterfly pressed Vaughn's hand and flicked a gold coin at the old pirate, "Let's talk about it first, and then it's a lot." ”

The old pirate looked embarrassed: "This ...... This ......"

Butterfly glanced at him and silently let go of Vaughan's grip.

"Okay!" the old pirate gritted his teeth and made up his mind, "I can't miss a cent afterwards! ”

Butterfly and Vaughn smiled at each other, and ordered the crew to drink here honestly, and the two followed the old pirate out of the tavern.

The storm outside was still very strong, and the three of them could only hide under the eaves against the wall to avoid getting their clothes wet.

Although the pirates' clothes are often not dry, who doesn't want to be decent when they go ashore.

Nalok Island is actually very large, but the most prosperous place is still close to the belly of the waters, because it resembles a horseshoe, so the pirates went ashore, and no one wanted to go far and go to the other side of the island to have fun.

On the side of the belly water, there is actually a huge curved stone wall, and the layers of wooden buildings are either directly suspended from the stone wall, or a space is directly carved out of the stone wall for life.

Because it is very humid, there are many mosses, so that the whole downtown area is dark green, and a fish oil lamp hangs on the stone wall, with the silence or violence of the sea, there is a different sense of gloomy and lively fusion.

The old pirate led the two of them for a long time, and finally ascended the wooden ladder on the stone wall to the upper floor.

Along the way, Butterfly and Vaughn carefully observed the surroundings, recording the terrain and the road, and it was at this time that they saw that the old pirate's walking posture was very strange, it turned out that both of his legs were disabled, below the knee, and his two wooden legs were ringing on the ladder.

On the way, the two saw many places where pirates gathered, and some of them mysteriously took out gold coins and whispered to them.

In the face of Vaughn's question, the old pirate smiled proudly, pointed to the group of people and said, "Those are all places that sell news, but to be honest, it is just a pleasure to drink and go there for a while, if you really want to find out the news, you have to find an experienced professional like us."

Vaughn nodded and didn't speak, while Butterfly remained silent.

Soon after, led by the old pirate, the three of them climbed to the top of the entire stone wall, and came to a wooden building that was half suspended and half embedded in the stone wall.

The old pirate lifted the curtain, and a noise and heat wave instantly hit his face, and the two of them looked at each other again, and they both held the scimitar in their hands.

"Inside please. The old pirate smiled and walked in.

The two of them followed in, and saw that the wooden building was almost full of sailors, shouting loudly at the tables, taking a sip of fruit wine from time to time, throwing out a few gold coins, and touching the fiery girl beside them.

"Poseidon Casino"

The four big characters on the sign at the door came into view, Die'er raised her eyebrows, and Vaughn asked, "What a big breath, Poseidon Casino?"

The old pirate grinned: "This is the name of this place, did you see the proprietress in front of the counter? she is the ...... of the evil god of the sea."

The old pirate suddenly closed his mouth when he said this, and saw a hot woman in front of the counter, who was so delicate that she couldn't tell her actual age, was looking here while flipping through the ledger, and there was a slender wooden pole in her hand, one end was smoking, and the other was just taken out of her mouth.

The woman exhaled a puff of smoke, the charm in her eyes was unstoppable, and her voice was not loud and lazy, and fell on the ears of the three people.

"Old man, why don't you have two legs, why don't you have a long memory? Don't you want the last leg anymore?"

The old pirate breathed for a moment and smiled awkwardly: "I'll leave now, I'll leave ...... now."

As he spoke, he hurriedly greeted the two behind him and walked towards the inner room of the casino, while the hot proprietress swept Die'er's back, turned her head and continued to look through the ledger.

In a corridor, on the left is a good place overlooking a large belly of water, and on the right is a single room, where even thunder cannot be dragged by unbearable sounds.

The old pirate's face was still embarrassed, "Ahead, just ahead, understand, it's about the Pirate King, you have to be careful." ”

Finally, the old pirate pushed open a door at the end of the hallway and made a gesture of please, and Butterfly and Vaughn glanced at it and stepped inside.

But the old pirate did not follow, but silently closed the door and left the place.

The two of them frowned, and were about to draw their scimitars, when a voice stopped them.

"Old fellows don't usually bring strangers over unless you want something special. ”

Inside the room, a middle-aged man was making a pot of tea, sitting motionless behind a low table.

"Let's talk about it first, tea is very expensive in Naluo, but it's free to drink here with me, as long as the news you need is important enough and you pay enough gold......"

The two of them were worried, Vaughn glanced at Die'er, she nodded, and took the lead in sitting opposite the middle-aged man.

......

Outside the house, the old pirate who left showed a smug smile, "I don't even know about the Poseidon Casino, and I don't even know the tavern that sells news, and it's really lucky, and I got a newcomer to a big ship in a daze, this time the boss is satisfied, and I must have a lot of shares." ”

The crew in charge of guarding the Jackdaws was listless and envious of the brothers who had disembarked early, when suddenly, a group of dark shadows took advantage of the heavy rain to touch the deck and threw several jars full of potions into the cabin.

The colorless liquid evaporated instantly, the crew fell unconscious, and the black shadows on the deck gestured to signal that everything was going well, and then gathered together and swaggered into the cabin.

However, what they didn't expect was that the clanging sound of the cabin on the first floor was heard by the first mate of the Tiger on the next floor.

When these uninvited guests walked in, they were met by a group of orcs who had come up to check on them, but were immune to the potion.

Both sides froze in place, and at this moment, a piercing grinding sound came from outside, and several ropes floated outside the deck like hideous sea snakes, staring at the backs of this group of uninvited guests.

Then, in the pouring rain, the Jackdaw docked quietly in the harbor as usual, as if nothing had happened.

......

"Julianne, Queen of the Sea?" the middle-aged man looked embarrassed and pushed two cups of tea over, "Do you know what the consequences will be if you leak the whereabouts of a pirate king here?"

"As long as there are enough gold coins, I think you can bear any consequences. Die'er said in a deep voice, not touching the cup of tea.

In the face of this kind of scene, she naturally won't casually eat other people's things, just like what she wants to find is obviously the Duke of the Sea Baroff, but on the surface, she insists that she is looking for Julian, the Queen of the Sea.

The middle-aged man rubbed his chin, got up and turned his back to the two, and thought seriously, "Let me think about ......"

The two of them waited like this, and after a while, Vaughn suddenly shook his head, his eyes began to blur, and he looked at Butterfly next to him, "Captain, something is wrong......"

Before he finished speaking, Vaughn was carried to the ground, and Butterfly shook her head, and a groggy feeling began to fill her mind, and after Vaughn fell to the ground, even a fool knew that there was a problem here.

At this time, the middle-aged man turned around, with an unbearable smile on the corner of his mouth, "Do you think you will be fine if you don't drink tea?" ”

Die'er's body shook, and she watched the middle-aged man with a smug smile slowly approach, and her hands began to become irregular.

Swinging, half of the scimitar was pulled out and fell to the ground, and the butterfly also fell sideways, and in the blurred vision, only a fish oil lamp hanging on the wall remained.

She felt someone undo her cloak, her consciousness became more blurred, and the fish oil lamp in her vision began to diffuse, and a young figure with a saber slowly appeared in the light.

"Ira......"

Butterfly murmured softly, and the clover stones in her chest suddenly became hot, and she suddenly woke up.

A hand grabbed the middle-aged man's arm, and the man was stunned for a moment, and then met Die'er's gaze.

In his eyes, the man seemed to see the endless sea roaring, the violent sea wind sweeping everything, and the thick thunder and lightning seemed to slash at his soul.

Desperate darkness and fury consumed him, slippery tentacles pulling him into the abyss.

He screamed loudly and struggled desperately, but his chest was pierced by invisible sharp teeth, and the sea water poured down the wound into his body, replacing every drop of blood.

In just an instant, black blood flowed from the corners of the middle-aged man's mouth, and the whole person fell to the ground, his skin oozed slippery oil, and his eyes were black, like an endless abyss at the bottom of the sea.

Butterfly picks up the cutlass and lifts Vaughn up, only to see the door to the room opened.

The hot proprietress leaned against the door frame, lazily exhaled her smoke, and ignored the dead middle-aged man, just looking at Die'er quite interestingly.

"I said a long time ago, he kicked the iron plate sooner or later, why doesn't he have a long memory......?
