Chapter 040. Uninvited drowning believers
"Even the militia has their adherents? It's a bit of a hassle. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
Squinting his eyes slightly, Levi's brow furrowed slowly, and he swept across the town of Barr on the hill, the curling green smoke was still filling, but it brought him an invisible pressure. Although the militia of Baal Town may not sound very powerful, they can face the endless pirates and Koutao fishmen of the Silver Coast, in fact, the experience from the real battlefield is several times stronger than the city defense team that only serves as a vase to maintain law and order in Grey Mist City.
After all, the town of Baal is the central hub of many pit settlements on the Silver Coast, and silver ingots from the pits that have been smelted are transported here. If these militiamen were not strong in combat, it is estimated that they would have already broken through the defenses of the greedy pirates, and rushed in to plunder this fat cake. And the head that hangs under the city gate almost every week is also a warning to all those who have ideas that their adventures will definitely pay a very high price.
"Be careful, those drowning believers have been very bizarre for the past two days, as if they appeared out of nowhere."
But old Harvey looked at the lucky young man in front of him, frowned slightly, moved his somewhat shriveled lips, and still reminded: "They are all wearing black robes and hoods on their heads, these are the fanatics of those drowning believers. After a pause, he still whispered: "Now they are preaching in Baal Town, but don't provoke them at will, because the current Baal Town is hardly under the management of the mayor, but belongs to their group of fellows." ”
"Mayor Mare? Wouldn't it be possible for officials sent directly from the Governor of Grey Mist City? ”
Levi's eyes opened sensitively slightly, and there seemed to be something thoughtful in his eyes. Some time ago, Baron Charlison's complaints also echoed more and more in his ears, but he couldn't help but think of the recent events in his mind. The annihilation of the entire river patrol team from Samar City, the easy breakthrough of the outer harbor of Grey Mist City by the thieves of the Ketuv River, the serious illness of the governor of Grey Mist City, and the faint battle between the high-level leaders all made Levi's eyes widen slightly, and he couldn't help muttering in a low voice: "It can't be that you are caught in some conspiracy, right?" ”
He felt as if he was stuck in some kind of quagmire now, and he couldn't grasp the point with a slimy body. But the old Harvey in front of him became more and more frightened, his eyes looked at a few figures from Nabal Town on the hill, and he coughed lightly and reminded Levi: "I was talking about those people before, and now it seems to be walking towards us, don't talk nonsense when you see them, they are believers in the god of drowning." ”
"It's funny." Squinting slightly, Levi looked at the six figures walking down the rugged road of the hills, seemingly skinny civilians, dressed in a wide black robe and hood, blown by the sea breeze like the Grim Reaper from hell. He turned his head to look at Hall and Green, and they immediately stepped back with a sharp heart, and at the same time walked briskly in the direction of the warship, and with a few orders the sailors dispersed and got busy.
"Oh, these damn bunches."
Old Harvey's shriveled mouth also moved slowly, and he couldn't help but tremble when he looked at those guys in black robes and black hoods walking over. Slowly swallowing and spitting, the figure that left with Levi also turned to leave, the rattan crutch in his hand was held tightly, and the whole person's body became more and more rickety. He looks like a real old man, and his only job is to guard the harbor of the Silver Coast.
However, Levi, who was still pretending to carry things, couldn't help but show a smile on his face when he saw this scene. Old Harvey, who drinks like life, doesn't bend around like this when he sees wine. But this added a bit of funniness, making him shake his head and smile as he put down the barrel in his hand, turned his head to the first mate Green, who was also carrying the barrel, and said, "Look, we're in trouble." ”
The six believers in black hoods and black robes had already walked down the hill, and their destination was not to be guessed, just following Levi's only two ships in the harbor. The wide hood already covered most of the faces of these six guys, making it impossible for others to detect the expressions on their faces, and it also added a bit of mystery. In this way, he came directly to the dock, and the leader slowly walked forward, stretched out his hand in the black robe as if praying, and said lightly: "God's prophecy has come, the sea is about to flood all the islands of the world, when we are lost, there is nowhere to escape, pray for the name of the drowning god, and we can gain the ability to breathe in the sea." ”
"Hey, meet a heretic."
Green, who was still busy, lifted a wooden barrel vigorously, lifted it up and moved towards the shore next to it, it seemed to be a little heavy, even if he carried it hard, he felt his face flush. It was easy to put the barrel on the ground, and he reached out to wipe the sweat stains on his forehead with some panting, but the first mate Green looked at Levi next to him with a strange side on his face, and said helplessly: "Do you want to send them away?" Even if I don't believe in Allah, I don't want to believe in their drowning gods. ”
"That's right, these ignorant and ignorant infidels."
Captain Hall next to him also approached, but with a crowbar in his hand, he reached out and stabbed the tip into the lid of the barrel, and then lifted the lid of the wood with all his might. Inside were pieces of black-brown objects, like neatly cut and angular stones. However, Captain Hall reached out and picked up a piece, used the knife in his pocket to cut off a piece vigorously, put it in his mouth and bit it, turned to Levi and said, "They will go to hell." ”
"Oh, of course." Levi looked at the two guys beside him, one left and one right, and there was a little more wry smile on his face. Reaching for the crowbar in Captain Hall's hand, he also pried open the barrel beneath him, and instead of the black-brown object, a piece of charred black baguette was inside. took out a piece and put it in his mouth and took a bite, the still fluffy texture showed that it was not damp, Levi handed it to Hall next to him, and at the same time said: "Don't care so much about faith, hurry up and divide the bread and salted meat, otherwise our sailors will go hungry." ”
"Understood." First mate Green also nodded, and as a first mate with a calm personality, he also quickly took over the trivial matters of life on the two warships. As he shouted, the sailors around him also came together, each holding a wooden bowl and a quilt in his hand, and lined up to lead his own piece of bread and a piece of salted meat. Everyone was busy in an orderly manner, but they didn't seem to be able to see the six black-robed people standing on the dock and raising their hands and making a calling motion, as if they were ignoring it at all.
"Sailors, according to the will of God, I will collect your ships as instruments of pilgrimage to the gods."
Looking at Levi in front of them, they didn't pay attention to themselves at all, and the six black-robed men finally couldn't bear it, and slowly stood half a step forward, looking at the sailors who were lining up to receive bread and salted meat, the corners of their mouths under the hood also brought a trace of disdain, and they just called out in a faint long voice: "If you are willing to bow down to the glory of my god, then you will be given white bread foamed with honey, fresh and tempting sausages, and fatty fish as your daily food." ”
"Bow down to the glory of the drowning gods, and you will receive endless delicacies." The other five drowning believers also slowly stepped forward, as if they were listening to the words of the leader, and opened their mouths as if they were chanting poetry. But their voices fell at once, for they found that the group of sailors before them, who had finished their bread and bacon were looking at themselves as if they were idiots, and at the same time gnawing on the brown bread and bacon with relish!
