Chapter 63: Captain Pete

Yesterday's heavy rain fell again overnight, and it wasn't until noon the next day that a ray of sunlight peeked out of the clouds.

This was the third day that Cassia had arrived in Idores, and he was sitting quietly on the stone steps by the dock, looking at a large ship that had just docked not far away, and these captains would not only accept the adventurer's commission to take them out to sea, but also have a job that was also their source of income.

Fishing, unlike fishermen who fish in shallow waters, likes to go deep into the ocean, even close to stormy seas, in order to catch those very rare, huge fish, and with the blood of Warcraft.

Even the largest two palm-sized salmon in Larpo, not to mention the rare ones, are in high demand.

This work is extremely risky, but the rewards are also proportional, and almost all people who go to sea to do this kind of thing have their heads on their waists.

Their prey is fish with the blood of Warcraft, and in addition to the changeable and dangerous sea and weather, those real Sea Warcraft are their biggest obstacles.

Because unlike land, the size of the magical beasts in the sea generally symbolizes strength, so once encountered, the captain can only pray for the protection of the sea god in addition to directing the ship to dodge as soon as possible.

Yes, the god of the sea, the most popular belief of Idoris is the god of the sea, of course, this is in private, but on the surface they are still believers in the god of light.

If a captain encounters a storm at sea, he will definitely choose to pray to the god of the sea, wait until he reaches the shore, and if someone asks, he will also pat his chest and say that he is a devout believer in the god of light.

This is the status quo of Idoris and other sea-side cities, unlike the inland, they live by the sea, the sea is their everything, and the captain's ship is more important than their mate, and it would be nice for them to stay on the shore for two months a year.

So even the Inquisition turns a blind eye to this kind of thing, otherwise they can't push a city away, as long as they look at the past on the surface, no one cares about it.

It's just that only a small part of the power of these beliefs in the sea god flowed to Cassia Ming, and most of the rest was generated, and gradually dissipated between heaven and earth.

"Because I've never been involved in the ocean, I don't have a specific image of the god for them to sustenance...... It seems that we have to find a way to create an image, otherwise it will be too wasteful. ”

Cassia thought as he held a seagull on his arm, attracting the gaze of others.

"Mother, you see, that uncle can train seagulls. ”

“...... Do I look that old now?" the smile on Cassia stiffened, his arm shook slightly, and the seagull flew back into the blue sky.

When Cassia returned to the tavern, it was still bustling, as if the sailors and fishermen didn't have to do anything every day.

In fact, it's just that there are too many of them, and some people go ashore when they go to sea, and in addition to women, gold coins, and silver coins, their only hobby is drinking.

"A glass of fruit wine. ”

"Here, a glass of cider. The bartender pushed the cup to Cassia and whispered to him, "Captain Pete is back, just in the innermost part of that corner, with a black captain's hat, a black beard, a pale blue Pikan shoulder, and a string of tiger shark teeth hanging from his neck." ”

Cassia bowed his head and said, "Good job." ”

Then a shiny gold coin flicked into the bartender's palm, and Cassia didn't look at the bartender's eyes glowing, but walked inside with a wine glass.

As he said, there were four people sitting at the innermost table, a young man, two middle-aged people, and a man who was about to leave the middle-aged man.

Although time is merciless, this man still maintains a strong body, and under the dark skin, the green muscles jump up from time to time.

But his eyes seemed to be an old man, a frustrated old man, with a little bit of indifference to life.

The other two middle-aged men were dressed as normal sailors, and they were drinking fiercely.

And the young man was dressed in leather armor, and a steel sword was pinned to his waist.

Cassia raised an eyebrow, then sat down next to the young man with his cup.

His arrival was a little abrupt, causing the four of them to look at each other suspiciously.

"Captain Pete, I heard you can take someone out to sea. ”

Pete took a long sip of fruit wine, Duang slammed his glass on the table, the remaining liquor dripping down his beard to the ground, and said without raising his head:

"Two gold coins. ”

"Yes. Cassia agreed without hesitation, which made the young man next to him show a look of admiration.

"The day after tomorrow, we will return to the Rolling Slope Islands. Pete replied without looking up.

"Rolling Slope Islands, what if it's to the Southern Continent?" Cassia curled the corners of his mouth and pushed the two gold coins over.

As soon as these words came out, even the two middle-aged men put down their wine glasses and looked at Cassia.

Pete was silent suddenly, then raised his head, his blue eyes fixed on Cassia Ming, two fingers pressed the gold coin, swiped to his side, and said at the same time:

"Fifty. ”

Cassia thought for a while, deliberately showed an embarrassed expression, and then reluctantly nodded in agreement: "Yes, board the ship and deliver it the day after tomorrow." ”

Pete nodded: "At noon the day after tomorrow, the first pier in the West District, it will not wait." ”

Cassia smiled without saying a word, raised his glass at the same time as Pete, and after a false toast, he left the place and returned to the upper floor.

But just as he was about to open the door, footsteps came from far and near, and finally stopped behind him.

Cassia turned his head sideways, it was the young man who looked like a ranger just now, who was smiling awkwardly at this time, and raised one hand, but did not put it on Cassia Brown's shoulder.

Because Qiding's knife tail was against his abdomen.

"What's the matter?" Cassia turned to look at the young man.

"Hey...... Hello, hello, my name is Brandi and I'm a Ranger. ”

"I can see it, but ...... What's the matter with you?"

"That...... That ......" Brandi stammered, "that ...... Everybody's a ranger, you see...... Can you lend me some money, just a gold coin. ”

"You only need two gold coins to get to the Rolling Slope Islands, and you only have one gold coin?"

"I ...... There are only nine left now, but I want to look at the edge of the stormy sea, and that Captain Pete is going to charge me ten gold coins!"

"That's fair. With that, Cassia pushed the door open.

"Hey, hey, blah, blah, I'...... I can trade you for a secret, it's Captain Pete's secret. ”

"Then you can use this to make a deal with Captain Pete. ”

"He'll feed me to the fish on the spot...... Don't you want to go to the Southern Continent? You must want to meet the orcs, right? Let me tell you, there's an orc on Captain Pete's ship. ”

Cassia stopped suddenly: "How do you know?"

"What I saw while waiting for Captain Pete to dock at the docks, even if it was only for a moment, I can't be mistaken, my natural ability is in my eyes. ”

Cassia thought for a moment and nodded: "Deal, if it's true, I'll advance the fare for you, if it's fake, I'll let you feed the fish." ”

"Okay, no problem!"

Then Cassia didn't bother with Brandi and entered the room instead.

Brandi, on the other hand, wanted to continue to say hello, but was left outside by a sound of the door closing, so he had to leave the second floor in embarrassment.

In the room, Cassia raised his eyes and looked at the West District, where there was indeed an orc girl hiding in the bilge of a large ship.

It was a butterfly girl, looking through the crack in the sealed hatch at this time, looking at the scene outside the bottom bilge, with a hint of yearning on her face.

And her wings are ...... for too long Perhaps they have never flown and have become atrophied, so that they seem to be a little abnormally developed compared to butterflies of the same age.

Seeing this, Cassia retracted his gaze, and while drinking tea, he checked what was still missing in the magician system, as if he hadn't seen the butterfly girl at all.

On the third day, Cassia arrived at the first pier of the West End as agreed, while Brandi was carrying a wooden box and had been waiting there for a long time.

Seeing Cassia coming, Brandi smiled and waved his hand, excited as if he was about to jump up, but he still seemed to care about a little ranger face, and resisted the impulse.

"Hi...... Friends, here. It was then that Brandi was depressed to find that he didn't even know what this kind peer was called.

Cassia walked over to Brandi and nodded, and the two of them followed the pedals to the deck, where one of the two middle-aged men was waiting for them that day.

"Gold coins. ”

"Give you ......," Brandi handed over nine gold coins.

The middle-aged man was about to say something, but he saw Cassia hand over a cloth bag: "Forty-nine, pay him one." ”

The middle-aged man took the bag and counted it, then nodded and led the two to the boat.

In the midday sun, the sea breeze gusted, and Captain Pete's ship sailed away from the first pier once more.

Not far from the docks, the bartender of the tavern was fumbling for the gold coins in his pocket, letting a messenger fly away, and leaving the place.
