Chapter 6: The Mysterious Prisoner
In the previous life, the vulture pirates had been explored countless times.
Especially as a professional booster, Raymond, efficiency is money.
In order to find an efficient and high-yield kill the boss and get the props, he has tried countless methods.
In the end, I found a trick to kill the level 13 elite boss Yuke by a level 1 trumpet.
That's the Explosion Trap!
But first, he escaped from this cell.
......
The toilet was in the innermost corner of the cell, just enough to avoid all sights except for Erin's cell directly opposite.
"It's a good thing this pit hasn't been used for a long time..."
Raymond felt relieved, glad he didn't reach out and pinch an indescribable piece of soft substance.
In the game, prying open the iron plate is a matter of reading the strip, but now he has to pry open the pit and break the rusted rivets himself.
Fortunately, the Hux Vulture is already a very old ship island, so it is not too difficult to get your hands dirty.
Many of the iron plates in the cabin were rotten, especially the squat pit that had been corroded by feces and urine for many years.
Raymond easily pried open a few corroded rivets and panted out of the squatting pit, revealing a large dark hole.
"I hope it's not so disgusting in this passage..."
......
Raymond was in his cell for a while, and the only person who could see him moving was Erin across from him.
The kind little princess listened to the sudden knock and some movement on the other side,
She approached the cell door curiously, just in time to see the scene where Raymond pried the iron plate over.
"Ahh What's he doing? β
Erin's eyes widened, and she covered her mouth and was about to exclaim.
"Could it be... He wants to escape from prison?! β
But at this time, she suddenly saw the young man opposite grinning at her with white teeth, revealing a mysterious smile.
"Shh
Raymond's actions couldn't hide from Erin who was directly opposite.
He pressed his index finger to his lips, his eyes flashing with a hint of slyness, and he made a silent gesture to her.
Looking at Erin's cute face, a flash of light flashed in Raymond's mind at the same time.
Hey, since she's not going to die, then...
Why don't you take the opportunity to brush up on your favor?
Thinking of this, Raymond said softly in a firm tone,
"Little Princess Irene, don't worry. I'll get you out! β
γDing! Erin's opinion gain +5. γ
"Sure enough!"
Hearing the system prompt, Raymond was overjoyed.
Not to mention the endless routes in the future, at least in the current Black Sea, with her father, Archduke Philip, the number one master, covering, it will be much more convenient for herself.
Hearing this confession-like words, Erin's face flashed with a flush, and she apologized for three points.
"He hasn't forgotten to get me out at this time... I should be ashamed of myself for having doubted Faeron's motives just now because of his words. β
Although there is no shortage of noble young masters in the territory on weekdays, they have not once touched her heart.
Sincerity is seen in a desperate situation.
Calm in danger, confident smile, and that determined look...
It turns out that there are such heroic and resolute people among the common people.
......
Just when I was grateful, another untimely voice appeared.
Naturally, their conversation was also listened to by Fei Lun next door.
"Don't bother you, a low-ranking lord, our clan will pay this greedy pirate a sufficient ransom, and Irene, and Irene, I will definitely get out alive. It's you... Tsk, will someone pay you a ransom? I'm afraid that the old man who adopted you as a boilermaker would not be able to satisfy the appetite of this group of pirates if he worked for a hundred years. β
Fei Lun next door seemed to hear something ridiculous, and the corners of his mouth raised an arrogant arc.
He has pursued Princess Irene for so long without getting favor, but now a guy who doesn't know whether to live or die has come out to give courtesy. Unconsciously, some kind of inexplicable hostility rose in his heart.
Moreover, now Erin is still deceived by this hateful fellow, and firmly believes that he is a 'hero to save beauty'!
Faeron had already decided in his heart,
The family sent someone to pay the ransom, and even if it cost a little more money, he would let this poor man named Raymond die at the hands of pirates!
"Feron, that's enough! Raymond is not as unbearable as you think! β
Hearing this, Erin somehow felt uncomfortable.
Raymond didn't speak, rolling his eyes.
He's also not interested in spitting with a dragon NPC.
He retreated to the innermost part of the cell, then smiled and waved goodbye to Erin across from him, and plunged headlong into the hole.
Seeing this scene, Erin covered her small mouth, her eyes flashed, and she couldn't hide her shock.
After all, I couldn't hold back and didn't exclaim.
There was a bit of anticipation in her demeanor, and there was a bit of worry and concern in her demeanor.
Is he going to come and get me out?
......
The vast steel ship island has an extremely complex system of ventilation ducts, which is as intricate as a labyrinth.
It's a paradise for rats, cockroaches and spiders.
If someone who is not familiar with the line rushes into the pipe, it is easy to get trapped inside.
But this is difficult to resurrect players who can run away.
The large dungeon of the "Hux Vulture" has been thoroughly touched by players, and there are no secrets hidden at all, and even the direction of these pipes is clear.
"Sure enough, this ventilation duct is exactly the same as in the game... In that case, I remember correctly that the mysterious man should be in cell C299. β
Raymond kept crawling through the Tietong ventilation ducts according to the line he remembered, and soon he found his destination accurately.
There is only one prisoner in this cell, number C299.
However, this guy wasn't captured by pirates.
He's just a weirdo who wants to get a free boat ride.
This is a very mysterious NPC, and Raymond only knows that this guy has a very high level of engineering specialization.
Past life players can trigger dialogues through specific quest programs and then obtain some rare engineering blueprints.
The purpose of Raymond's trip, in addition to removing the explosive collar around his neck, is more importantly for a drawing.
Known as the "King of Muskets", the [Hex's three-barreled warhammer] blueprint.
Although the probability of obtaining it is extremely small, if you can really get the drawings to make the real thing, at least you have a strong self-protection ability in the early stage.
Raymond poked his head from the ceiling, and when he didn't see the patrolling pirates, he jumped down the passage.
The prisoner in cell C299 was extremely scruffy in appearance, dressed in a brown linen shirt, and his beard and hair were as fluffy as weeds, obscuring most of his face.
This poor sour dress looks like those poor sour old sailors with a hangover in the tavern.
Raymond looked at the door, with a look of a god stick, and directly revealed his name.
"Hello, Mr. Colin Rodriguez. Prophecy led me to you, and I hope for your help. β
The mysterious man leaned against the iron wall and did not look up.
I wasn't moved at all, as if I was asleep.
Raymond's indifferent reaction to him was not surprising, and continued: "I saw a huge fleet roaming the sea in the prophecy, but strangely enough, there was not a single living person on the island... Mr. Colin, can you help me with my doubts? β
