Chapter Seventy-Two: Tru
Squeak –
Pushing open the door to the captain's quarters, it was empty, as Aven expected.
Trample... Trample... Trample...
The crisp sound of his boots on the floor made a crisp footstep, and Evan didn't search for desk drawers or locked wooden boxes that might obviously hold treasure.
Instead, he swept his gaze over a large wardrobe standing in the corner of the wall, and walked straight over with a playful expression.
"I'll count three, and if you don't come out, I'll shoot straight away. ”
"One, two、..."
"Don't shoot, Lord Navy, I surrender, I surrender!"
The door opened with a bang, and a small, white-haired old man in a robe rolled out of it.
"Lord Navy, I'm not a pirate, I'm forced!
The beard and hair were all white and he was dressed in a long robe, looking like a master of the world, at least an old man at the level of Gandalf, lying on the ground desperately begging for mercy, which was really too disobedient in Aiwen's eyes.
Hearing the old man's words, Ai Wen glanced at the prompt that popped up in the "Digital Vision" out of the corner of his eye, the corners of his mouth playfully hooked, and asked slowly, "Really, not a pirate, then why are you mixed up with pirates?"
"My lord, I'm just an ordinary scholar in the kingdom of Thessaly, and while traveling to the New World, I was caught by the damned pirate leader Skuk and forced me to manage the charts for him. I'm not a pirate!"
The old man's blue eyes were rolling, and he was obviously a flexible person, but in front of Ai Wen, this flexible mind was used in the wrong place.
His specific thoughts, Evan couldn't tell.
But Ai Wen can tell if he is lying by the "digital vision" of his breathing, heartbeat, and eye changes, not to mention that Pintail Petrel has already transmitted the picture of him when he was alone in the captain's room to himself, and it is clear whether this old man is a good person or not.
However, it is rare to meet a pirate who seems to be able to communicate, and Evan also wants to learn more about the "White Shark" and this attack through him, so as to avoid it for the time being.
His young face hesitated slightly, as if he had some faith in the old man's words, but he couldn't make up his mind for a while, and after thinking about it for a while, he said:
"Since you are not a pirate, as a civilian in the Tulip Alliance, our navy has an obligation to keep you safe. But you'll also have to help us get rid of the pirate ship so we don't get caught in the cracks. Do you agree?"
'Hahaha, it's still a young man, I can't give those savage pirates a funeral. As long as you can have a good relationship with him, you can't really escape this time. ’
Everything that happened on the battlefield was in full view of the old man hiding here, how could he not know what kind of evil star this seemingly immature young man was on the battlefield?
Unexpectedly, he let himself go with just a few words, and he couldn't help but be secretly proud in his heart.
"Yes, yes, my lord, old Tru is old and frail and no threat, and those damn pirates didn't deliberately avoid me when they were planning to kill people. I can't do anything else, I can't hide the news from this pirate ship. ”
Since he decided to rely on this young man who seemed to be very easy to fool to survive, Tru didn't mind betraying the intelligence of the pirate group, after all, even the white shark was killed, and even if he betrayed, no one could punish him.
"Lord Navy, here's how it ......"
After listening to the narration of this self-proclaimed "scholar" Tru, Evan once again lamented the madness of this era.
Although his side and the "Sharktooth" pirate group have a grudge against killing their deputy leader "One-Eyed Becky", this grudge will not make the entire pirate group plan to take revenge.
The real reason is...
In order to lift the "alienation curse" on his body, White Shark Skuk desperately tried to grab the life-saving straw stretched out by the Black Wing Order, but at the cost of the life of a lieutenant general officer in a civilized country.
The Pirate Regiment purchased information from the Tipsters on eligible generals, but just happened to choose the easiest Lieutenant General Snaitter.
And although the Silverwing hunted the deputy leader of the Sharktooth Pirates "One-Eyed Becky" before, this time it really only affected the pond fish.
In Aiwen's impression, a guy like the Black Wing Order, who believes in true gods but has no different style from evil gods, can do such things that harm others and themselves.
"Injustice", "Atrocities", "Looting", "Theft" The Order's propaganda does not have a single positive priesthood in the power of the Blackwing God, and turmoil, death, and destruction are exactly what they want.
But when one piece of information came out of the old man's mouth, Evan found that it was too detailed. From contacting intelligence dealers for intelligence gathering, to contacting the notorious Bloodband, from the layout of Lighthouse Island, to the hunting of new routes and the mobilization of naval forces after the failure of the plan.
One by one, it doesn't look like hearsay, but like a plan that you have personally participated in or even made yourself.
Looking at this old guy's triumphant appearance when he talked about happiness, Evan felt a little embarrassed, his own group of self-proclaimed elite navy was almost planted in the hands of such people, it was too ugly!
However, Aven listened in his ears, but his face did not show any emotion, but he took a pen and paper from the desk in the captain's room, asked him to write down everything he knew, and then signed his name.
Old Tru also did it one by one, the navy, it's very normal to go through some written processes.
Seeing that he had finished writing his confession, Evan asked again, as if unintentionally, "When we entered the ambush of two pirate ships, there was a strange fog, do you know what happened?"
The old man's last gesture stiffened slightly, and then he raised his head and said very puzzledly: "Strange fog? I don't know! Isn't that a natural celestial phenomenon? The pirates on the ship opened fire when they saw you." ”
If Evan hadn't commanded the seabirds to scout in the fog before, and had seen the scene of the two pirate ships constantly adjusting their course to pursue the "Silverwing", he might have really believed that the old man was telling the nonsense that the "Silverwing" took the initiative to enter the encirclement.
The information just now was that Evan was sure that he was telling the truth, but what he said about the fog must be false. And at this point, what else is there to risk him to deceive himself?
"Look into my eyes!"
The activation spiritual power of the intermediate apprentice-level overflowed violently, and Aiwen's black eyes seemed to radiate a strange aura.
The eye is the window of the soul, and it is also one of the bridges between the spiritual power and the outside world, although Ai Wen has not mastered any spiritual witchcraft now, but it is no problem to use spiritual deterrence to suppress the will of ordinary people.
It's best to torture.
The black eyes and the old man's blue eyes looked at each other, and they should have suppressed the old man's will in an instant, but they didn't expect that the air between the two seemed to be a cannonball, and there was a crisp explosion in an instant.
Smack-
