Chapter Forty-Three: Go to Sea and Catch Whales!
"Are you serious?" Mirajane looked at the "pocket mini boat" in front of her and looked at Renault with a strange expression.
"Yes, don't look at it small, it has a lot of functions, in addition to the basic sails, this kind of ship is also equipped with a magic power system, the maneuverability is much stronger than ordinary ships, and it has built-in navigation equipment, which can help us not to get lost in the sea, and the most important thing is that its operating system is integrated, only one person is enough to complete most of the work, is there anything more suitable for us than this?" Renault looked at the ship with satisfaction.
"Why does it sound like we are superfluous......" Mira muttered discontentedly.
Renault did not notice the girl's complaints, and he looked at the nimble miniature boat with satisfaction, which radiated a jewel-like brilliance in the sun.
The Renault is all too familiar with this ship, and don't forget that Oftori is also a port city, and it is a more developed shipping hub than here, where all kinds of ships are available, and the study of seafaring skills is also a compulsory subject for Oftori mercenaries.
Moreover, because of the cute shape of this series of pocket ships called "Treasure", it is especially popular with female mercenaries. Luo Luo, the captain of the team he belonged to, had long wanted to save money to buy one, so he didn't know how many strange excuses he had found to deduct Renault's payment. As a result, the boat has not yet been bought, and the operation method has already forced Renault's back to be ripe.
As for why she didn't learn it herself?
To be a captain is, of course, only need to be able to command.
So, seeing this Q version of the boat again at this moment, Renault actually felt a trace of kindness in his heart.
However, of course, Mira didn't know this story, she only felt that this little thing was mixed in a group of behemoths, which was particularly eye-catching.
"Even if you praise it to the sky......" Mira looked at the large boats on both sides, which were several times taller, and then at the "little pudding" in front of her, with black lines on her forehead.
"If I knew that you chose this ship because of some personal bad taste, I would never spare you!" Mira swore in her heart.
"This boat is so cute, Lisanna loves it." Mira's sister has little stars all over her eyes. Sure enough, there are still aesthetically normal girls on the scene.
"Not manly at all." Elufman muttered quietly.
"Aha, have you already chosen, uh, is this one?" The boss walked up to them, and after seeing their choice, he gave Renault a deep look. It was only at this moment that he fully believed in Renault's origins, after all, this type of ship was rare in Harugion, and the entire port probably had such a ship here. The boss wondered if he would wait for them to come back and find another chance to climb the friendship.
"We just need this one, of course, we also need to prepare some tools for going to sea, which will trouble you." Renaud said politely to the boss.
"No trouble, no trouble, it's an honor for the villain to be able to serve the noble magicians of Fairy Tail." The boss is worthy of being a businessman, and the kung fu of changing his face is a must, so after a while, he can't see the previous disgust at all, and his face is full of honor, and he runs before and after preparing all kinds of navigation equipment for them, and this kind of differential attitude The three Mira sisters and brothers are speechless in their eyes.
After some preparations, they finally landed on the deck of the "Pearl Oyster".
"Sit tight, we're going!" Renault sat in the control room that looked like a magic mechanism, and with a flick of the joystick, the huge sail unfurled, and the miniature boat was quickly driven towards the depths of the sea.
Mira sat on the side of the boat, silently watching Renault, who skillfully steered the boat in the control room.
"Sister, what are you thinking?" Lisanna suddenly appeared next to her sister and asked mischievously.
"I'm wondering if I'm really still a little hot, I'm not much younger than that guy next year, but standing next to him always feels like a child who needs to be taken care of everywhere." Mira rubbed her long hair irritably, her face full of gloomy.
"Why can he think of so many things?"
"Actually, it's pretty good once in a while." Lishana reassured.
"What?" Mira looked at her in dismay.
"I mean...... Sister, you have always played the role of standing at the forefront to protect others, and it is rare to have a chance to be taken care of, so it is better to cherish it. Lisana stuck out her tongue, "Moreover, I always feel that Brother Renault is very strong, although he hasn't mentioned it himself, but judging by his style of acting, maybe he is actually a hidden S-class magician." ”
"Cut, that's the kind of guy." Mira shook her hair dismissively.
"What should I say?" Lisanna looked at the sky and recalled carefully, "I always feel that Brother Renault's temperament is very similar to that of my sister before. ”
"The old me?"
"Well, when we first ran out of the village, we didn't have enough food and clothing, and we always had to worry about being bullied, and every time my sister stood in front of me and Brother Elufman, my sister was really super reliable at that time."
Mira's forehead bulged with a green tendon: "You mean I'm not very reliable now, are you, you're going to betray me and take refuge in Elsa's little camp, aren't you?" ”
Lishana hurriedly waved her hand, cold sweat on her head, the relationship between her sister and another companion in the guild was really worrying. However, even such an unreasonable sister-in-law is much better than before.
Her eyes unconsciously looked at the cockpit of the boat, what did Brother Renault, who had a similar temperament to her sister, experience?
"Sister, you say, is it possible for Brother Renault to join our guild as well?" Lishana suddenly blurted out such a question.
Mira frowned, she hadn't thought about this problem, this guy from an unknown source did seem to have said before that he didn't join any guilds, if that was the case, the old man should agree, and he could pull this guy into his team when the time came......
Wait, why I've already thought about this step.
Mira shook her head and glanced suspiciously in Renault's direction, it was strange why she had an inexplicable sense of trust in him when she was just a guy who had met for the first time.
In the cockpit, above Renault's head, Ursa Minor chubby rolled over, yawned profusely, and fell back into a deep sleep.
After some time, the raised sails were suddenly put away, and when the ship came to a complete stop, Renault slowly walked out of the cockpit.
"What's wrong, what's wrong?" Mirajane asked.
"No, we're almost done, it's time to cast the bait."
"Bait?"
"That's right." Renault shouted into the cabin, "Aeluffman! ”
"It's coming!" The stout Alufman appeared with several large chests in one hand, but because the boxes were so heavy, he simply strengthened his arm with magic, and now his entire right arm was like a stone, and if he moved a little bigger, he would drop slag.
"Boom!" The box was placed on the ground with a mountain sound.
"What is this? Doesn't that the monster now likes to lurk in the offshore zone and attack merchant ships? You take these boxes and you want to attract them? Mira looked at the boxes with a disgusted look at the heavy fishy smell.
"Rainbow trout, the favorite of the white whales, I have been sprinkling the blood of rainbow trout on the stern of the boat during the previous voyage, and I should have reacted now." Renault explained.
"Just a little bit, can you attract that guy?" Mira looked at the boxes, and then thought about the huge size of the white whale, and her eyes were full of suspicion.
"It's not about the quantity, it's the attraction that matters, and there are no schools of rainbow trout offshore. Think about it, a large plate of coarse bread and a small piece of Jenny puffs are placed in front of you, which will you eat first? ”
Renault put his hand in front of him to form a pergola, looked at the direction where the sea and the sky met, stared for a while, and suddenly shouted excitedly: "Everyone, pay attention, that guy is here!" ”
