CH.50 Nightmare

"Oh no, all the azurites on the ship are gone!"

A voice exploded like thunder in Sam's dream, turning his dream into a nightmare, and the mountains of food were gone, replaced by endless darkness and the pressure of the mountains about to fall.

If all those azurites were gone, it would be a terrible thing for him.

Luckily, everything was just a dream.

"Where did all the blue crystals go?"

"I don't know, I suddenly fainted just now, and when I woke up, I found that the blue crystal was gone."

"Tell Sam about this, he's the acting captain now!"

More voices rang out in Sam's dreams, echoing through the endless darkness.

Wrong!

It's not a dream!

Sam gasped, came back to his senses, and opened his eyes suddenly. The wooden ceiling of the crew's cabin is reached, and the hull of the ship is swaying with the rolling sea, like a baby's cradle. It was still dark, but there were a lot of flickering lights outside, shining through the portholes, bringing some light to the crew's cabin.

There were quite a few people outside who were making a lot of noise, and the situation was quite chaotic, and everyone was shouting that the blue crystal was missing.

Sam's heart was chilled by those men's words, and he quickly grabbed the silver pocket watch on the table and glanced at it, it was the middle of the night, and there were still a few hours before dawn. He didn't know why he wanted to see the time, but he felt that he could feel a little more at ease after confirming the specific time.

"Bang bang bang!"

Someone banged on the door and shouted, "Sam." Hurry up, something big is wrong! ”

Sam didn't even have time to change his clothes, and just rolled over and got out of bed in his pajamas. Got on his shoes and opened the door with a bang.

There were a lot of people standing outside, all crew members and sailors, many of them carrying lamps in their hands, illuminating the narrow passage.

The light made Sam's eyes narrow, and his heart cooled even more.

"Lost all the aquamarines?" Sam asked first.

Everyone nodded their heads first, and then they talked about what they knew.

From the words of these people. Sam got a couple of useful pieces of information.

First, azurite was indeed lost, and it was completely lost. All the kyanites on both ships were stolen, and only a few pieces remained. The price of aquamarine has been skyrocketing recently, and the total value of these azurites is at least 12,000 gold coins, if you are not in a hurry. Wait until the price has reached its peak before selling. The profit will be even higher, and it may even be sold for 20,000 gold coins!

Second, the person who steals azurite has some special means that can make people unconscious, and many people are stunned. The stunned men found wounds on their bodies, small wounds that looked like arrow wounds, or they could have been wounds from hidden weapons such as throwing knives. But no one has ever found the murder weapon. The thief seems to have taken the murder weapon away.

"Take me to the warehouse." Sam said hard.

The crowd led the way in front and pushed and shoved out of the passage.

Sam followed. It takes a lot of effort to take every step, and my fat legs feel like they are filled with lead.

"The aquamerates are all lost, what should I do now? How do I explain to Anrui? I'm the person in charge now, and I'm most responsible for the loss of Azurite. These azurites are so valuable, even if you sell me, you can't afford to lose them. Alas, I knew that I would lose it, so I lay down on the aquamarine and slept, whoever dared to touch those aquamarines, I would fight with him! Sam thought wildly as he walked, his thoughts in a mess like a ball of yarn that had been scratched by a cat.

It was a long walk for Sam, and it seemed like he had walked a long time to reach the warehouse, where the door was wide open and he could see the inside clearly.

The warehouse was empty, except for blue debris on the floor.

"It's over...... Sam's head buzzed, his legs went limp, and he fell to the side, but fortunately he was helped by someone else.

"Sam, what are we going to do?" The man holding Sam was the helmsman, Bearded, who asked in an urn voice.

"Don't ask me, I don't know......" Sam replied with a bitter face.

"Captain Anrui handed over these two ships to you out of trust in you, and you can't fall down at this time. And I feel that things are still turning around, so many aquamarines, it is very troublesome to transport, they should not have gone far, now send people to search around, and it is possible to catch up with them. "The bearded man is an older middle-aged man, who has experienced strong winds and waves, but he is calmer than Sam who is in a mess.

"That's right! We've got to send someone after those thieves! Sam was reinvigorated and regained his footing.

"And ask the toothed whale people who are on the bottom of the sea, they may have seen the thief."

"Yes, yes, you're so right." Sam patted his fat face, and the whole person was much more sober, "You take people to the port to search for those thieves now, if you find their traces, don't fight them, just see where they are, and come back to inform me." They can steal the blue crystal without knowing it, and they can stun so many people, it must be amazing. You remember to bring that little girl Amy, if something happens, she can help. ”

"Okay, I'll do it." The bearded man nodded in agreement and took the order.

Sam then gave some orders to the others and sent a letter to the Port Authority. If something like this happens, you must tell the Port Authority, but don't expect the Port Authority to help much.

With everything in order, Sam stepped out of the cabin and onto the open deck, where he used the power of the contract scroll to call out all the toothed whale people at the bottom of the sea. With a hint of anticipation, he asked the toothed whale people if they had just spotted any suspicious figures, but the answer he received was rather disappointing.

The toothed whales take turns sleeping at night, leaving some of them to keep watch, and the toothed whale people who were in charge of the sentry claim to have seen nothing. As for the sleeping toothed whale people, they don't know anything.

Sam did everything he could, sat down on the ground, stretched out his hand to hold his head, and said depressedly: "Even the toothed whale man didn't see the thief's appearance, it seems that this thief's strength is very high, and eighty percent is a powerful thief." ”

"Thieves? What thief? A puzzled voice suddenly sounded.

Sam shuddered when he heard this, he could hear that the voice was clearly from Anrui!

"Captain!" Sam suddenly stood up and looked around, looking for Anrui's figure,

"Don't look, I'm here." As soon as An Rui's words fell, the whole person immediately teleported to the open-air deck of the Dragon Teng, and stood in front of Sam with a smile.

Sam wiped his eyes vigorously, barely believing what he saw.

"Captain, is it really you?" Sam asked.

"Of course it's me." Anrui laughed dumbly, not understanding why Sam would react the way he did. After gaining the power of Bona and Lance, he rushed back with his two companions and returned here tonight. All in all, it took a lot of time to go back and forth.

"Captain, I'm sorry, it's useless...... Sam gritted his teeth and hung his head, a little afraid to look at Anrui.

"What the hell happened, I just heard you mention the thief, did you lose something on board?"

"Well, we've lost something."

"What's missing?"

"Azurite ......"

"What?" An Rui's brow furrowed, sensing the seriousness of the matter.

"That's what happened...... Sam snapped up recounting what had happened tonight.

An Rui's face sank significantly when he heard that all the blue crystals were lost, but after listening to all the circumstances, his face recovered a lot.

"You don't have to be embarrassed, I've already guessed the identity of the thief, they are not thieves, but a group of powerful archers!" An Rui squinted.

Everyone was stunned, and they had the impression that sneaking was what thieves often did, so how could any archer run to do this?

Berego and Shafi had already followed the boat, and when they heard that it was a group of archers who had stolen the aquamarine, Berego's slender golden eyebrows immediately raised, and a layer of frost appeared on Jun's face. As an archer, he cares a lot about enemies of the same class. In addition, his strength has skyrocketed a lot after absorbing the power of inheritance, and he really wants to find someone in the same profession to fight against him to see how strong he is now.

"Where are those archers? Where do they come from? Berego asked in a deep voice.

"They are members of the Butterfly Bandits, a hidden force in the Aoki Kingdom, whose members are all female elven archers, and they are all very strong. They love to steal treasures, and they steal treasures that are priceless, and treasures that are less than 10,000 gold coins are not eye-catching. They also have a trait, when they steal, they never kill, but will use poisoned arrows to poison people and stun them. Judging from what you have said, the group that stole Aquabra is completely in line with the style of the Butterfly Thieves. An Rui explained in detail.

"Butterfly thieves?" Berego was confused, apparently hearing the term for the first time.

However, some of the crew members and sailors knew about this organization, after all, they had stayed in Zijinhua Harbor for a while, and they had heard something about all aspects of Aoki Country.

After confirming who did it, it was time to find a way to chase the blue crystal back.

The crew and sailors are gearing up one by one, asking for battle, threatening to fight the butterfly thieves.

But An Rui didn't rush to give the order, because he knew that this matter was not so simple, and it could not be solved by pure force. If it messes around, it will make things more troublesome.

And after so much time, it is impossible to catch up with the people of the Butterfly Thieves, if you want to recover the blue crystal, you can only go directly to the Butterfly Thieves' lair and smash the Yellow Dragon.

"Shafi, Beregor, you two come with me again." Anrui looked into the depths of the harbor, where a full moon hung beside several towering buildings, "Let's meet those elf archers together." (To be continued......)
