Chapter 374: The Apollo Pirates
The three of them played for a while, walked out of the business district, turned left and came to the entertainment street, as a large service harbor, there are many entertainment venues in "Lokia". Of course, because the type of customers is relatively simple, most of the projects in entertainment venues are adult-oriented.
There are a large number of venues that provide services for both sexes, which are planned by the management of Xinggang to a corner of the business district, and as for the entertainment street, there are casinos, pubs, boxing rings, KTVs, massage parlors and other various service facilities.
The destination of the three Tang Fang's trip was a tavern called "Iron Skull" on Entertainment Street. It is located in the middle of the entertainment street, mixed in the middle of various casinos and experience halls, which is very inconspicuous.
Different from the neon-lit faΓ§ade decoration of other venues, the "Iron Skull" is very low-key, and the architectural style is similar to the small castle of medieval European society, the overall cylindrical shape, and the walls are made of gray-white stones, deliberately rendering a mottled and desolate meaning.
The door is an authentic old-fashioned oak door, and a skull-shaped iron handicraft hangs on the stone wall on the right side, which looks black and eerie from a distance, giving people an eerie feeling.
"Let's go." Tang Fang led the way, walked to the door, and knocked with his hand.
"Knock, knock, knock......" a muffled voice sounded.
After about a few breaths, the small round arched wooden door opened by itself from the inside, and there was not half a figure behind it.
He didn't care, and walked into the aisle, followed by Claire and Zhou Ai.
Lights are lit on the stone walls to the left and right of the aisle, casting a dark light in all directions. The floor is also made of stone, which gives it a hint of coolness. The sound of military boots tapping on the stone face, and the slight crackle of lamp oil, have a different taste of returning to the Middle Ages.
"Hmm...... It can be seen that the owner of this tavern has put a lot of thought into it. Zhou Ai said approvingly.
"Tang Fang, how did you know about this place?" Claire was even more curious about why Tang Fang, who had come to Lokia for the first time, had brought them here. It is not uncommon to get the information from the hotel's "Rockia Travel Guide".
Tang Fang turned his head and glanced at the two of them, and pretended to say mysteriously: "The mountain people pinch their fingers, this place is related to me." This time there should be an opportunity. β
"Poof......" Zhou Ai almost laughed: "Make it up, make it up." β
Claire sighed as well. Tsai looked at Tang Fang carefully, and his eyebrows raised slightly: "How do I think someone is going to be unlucky, is it an illusion......
Tang Fang's eyelids jumped, he laughed dryly, and reached out to push open the heavy wooden door at the end of the corridor.
At the back is a spiraling stone staircase that leads to the main hall on the 3rd floor. At this moment, there was a cacophony of curses. There was shouting, and there was the sound of fists and wine glasses.
Claire frowned, as usual, she wasn't interested in this kind of place.
"Let's go." Tang Fang looked at her and smiled, with a little apology in his eyes.
"Hmm." The girl also smiled, and Zhou Ai followed closely behind, walking up the stairs to the third floor.
The door to the hall was ajar so that there were no security guards or anything like that, and the stairs leading to the fourth floor were dim, and in the shadows a man and woman were hugging each other and making love. Tang Fang drew the following conclusions from the woman's writhing little buttocks. One. The man's hand is very dishonest. Second, the spring water of a river flows eastward......
"Enjoyable?" He was so engrossed in his gaze that he ignored what was behind him. Claire stepped on his heel and was about to apologize, but when she turned her head to see this scene, she couldn't help but grab Tang Fang's back and make a 360-degree Thomas turnaround.
"Hiss......" Tang Fang gasped, hurriedly turned his face, and said righteously: "Zi said, don't look at indecent things." β
"Alright, alright. If you want to flirt and go back to the hotel, whatever you two toss, it's better to be a little more restrained outside. Zhou Ai caught up from behind. Push open the door.
Suddenly, the smell of wine and smoke filled the air. There was also a smell of sweat mixed with it.
"Let's go inside." Tang Fang stepped in, and Claire also endured her discomfort and followed him into the hall.
The exterior decoration of the "Iron Skull" takes the classical route, and the internal facilities are also very tasteful. It is not like ordinary pubs and bars, with scattered seats, booth seats, and a dance floor below, and a performance stage and private room next to it, and a bar and wine rack above. The layout of the hall of the "Iron Skull" is simple, even rudimentary.
A long wooden table, low benches, oak barrels, large draft beer glasses, and a group of bearded and scruffy men make it a "family gathering" for the Vikings of the Middle Ages.
Fortunately, this is the interstellar era, and although the tavern is decorated in an antique style, the guests are dressed in a variety of ways, all races. In addition, the waitresses of "Iron Skull" are also a must, all tall and beautiful, provoking uniforms, and what is even more commendable is that they are all amorous and generous, and they don't care about the groping pig's hands that frequently patronize their breasts and buttocks.
Perhaps because of the unique style of "Iron Skull", although it looks quite inconspicuous from the outside, there are many guests inside, from explorers, mercenaries, bounty hunters and other big and coarse people, to government employees, company white-collar workers, personnel are very mixed, both men and women, and the proportion is very close, which can't help but surprise Tang Fang.
But when you think about it, it's no wonder. In the past, when I walked down the street in Lector, I saw that more than 6 out of 10 people were women. In such turbulent times, men are a scarce commodity, especially young men.
Although the situation between the Star Alliance and the "Phoenix" Empire and the Silver Eagle Regiment has eased a little in recent years, there is no big war, and a small war is inevitable.
Although the "Lokia" starport is large and comparable to a city in the sky, due to the functional relationship, the starport belongs to the most service industries, so that the ratio of men to women in "Lokia" has reached an astonishing 3:7.
There are many women, few men, and they are all young women, so it is inevitable that there will be long nights and sleepless sleep. And most of the customers of "Lokia" are explorers, mercenaries, merchants, etc., who have been running around for a long time, and have long lacked the nourishment of love. As a result, places such as taverns and bars have not only become entertainment places for people to relieve stress and relax, but also a holy place for appointments.
This can't help but remind Tang Fang of the time before the crossing, indeed, the number of girls in cities like Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou is far more than that in the county and the countryside.
"Claire, here." Just when Tang Fang was stunned, Zhou Ai's voice came from the corner of the hall. The two turned their heads to look. She was found sitting behind a square table beckoning.
"Let's go." Greeting Claire, the two of them sat down at the square table.
A waitress stepped forward and asked for something with a smile. Tang Fang asked for a small keg of beer. A few plates of fruits and vegetables. After a while, the food and wine were served. Claire pushed a full glass of draught beer in front of him, a hint of impatience between her eyebrows, and asked, "You didn't come here to drink bar?" β
At this time, Zhou Ai had already half a glass of beer in his stomach, smashed the wine glass on the table with a "bang", and gloated: "Say, which girl do you like?" Sister help you to ask for contact information. β
Tang Fang glanced at her, ignored the stubble, and raised his head to sweep the noisy hall. He took a big sip from his wine glass and said vaguely, "No one has come yet." β
"Huh? Who? β
After not responding for a long time, Claire looked up and saw that this kid was listening with his ears straight, and when she followed his gaze, she saw five men sitting on a long table behind him, the oldest was about 40 years old, and the youngest was about 25 years old. Look at the dress, black T-shirt. Jeans, the style is almost the same, if you refer to the body shape of 5 people. It's easy to draw a conclusion.
They are supposed to be members of an expedition that roams the outskirts of the Lost Lands, making a living searching for the remains of the Ipsisaurus.
Claire listened attentively as Tang Fang listened.
"It's your turn for the pheasant, what do you think?" Said a black man wearing a silver ring on his right earlobe.
The thin man sitting across from him thought for a moment: "If you want me to say, Albert has a better chance of winning." β
"Yes, yes, the hero sees the same thing." It was the oldest of the five who spoke.
At this time, the white man with a long scar in the corner of his left eye spat out a white eye, twisted his cigarette in the ashtray, and shook his head: "I don't think so." After all, Albert is not rightly named, and it will continue to be consumed like this. He will become more and more passive. β
The elder snorted softly, "Robinson, you're still tender." Albert could hold on to that seat for months. In itself, it shows a problem, this person is not a wine bag and rice bag as rumored outside, he is still quite capable. And do you really think it's going to be as simple as it seems? Anyway, 'Apollo' is also a very famous pirate group, how many people are staring at it, I'm sure, Albert, that guy, must have a backstage. β
Pheasant nodded: "Yes, I agree with the eldest brother, with Albert's little man, can he defeat Stephen overnight?" Su and Chen Jian won the position of head of the regiment? How is this kind of thing possible, there is a good chance that there is an external force intervening. β
"Who will it be if an external force intervenes?" The black man with the silver ring in his ear muttered.
At this time, the young man at the end of the table, who was already a little drunk, slammed the table with a wine glass and shouted loudly: "You guys, are you annoying? Annoying! Does 'Apollo' have anything to do with you? Is it related! Why do you have nothing to do with that heart? β
"Shut up." The other four said in unison, and the scar man even grabbed the cigarette butt and threw it in his face: "The newcomer should be a man with his tail between his legs, and no one will treat you as a dumb person if he doesn't speak." β
ββ¦β¦β
"'Apollo'? Pirate? "Claire has been sent to the Charles Federation to attend school soon after she was rescued from Sosya by Marion, and she has no idea about pirates or anything. In her opinion, isn't it just a group of robbers vying for power, what's there to care about.
The girl looked up at Tang Fang, but saw that he had almost the same expression as Zhou Ai, his face was melancholy, and his two eyebrows were almost twisted into a rope.
"Hey, what the hell is going on with these two people? Could it be that 'Apollo' has something to do with the two? β
Claire guessed correctly, this pirate group named "Apollo" is really related to Tang Fang and Zhou Ai. To be precise, it should be that the original leader of the "Apollo" pirates is related to the two.
has an intersection with the two of them, and is a pirate leader, there is only one person with such an identity, Byron? Alonso!
Tang Fang never expected that this time the "Iron Skull" and his party would find out the news of Byron, which was really unintentional.
I think that when he was on the Archimedes, Byron once said that he would return to the Tianchao Star Region to retake charge of the "Apollo" pirates, and invited him to go with him, but because he was worried about affecting Tang Yun and Tang Lin, he politely declined his kindness. This time, I came to the Tianchao Star Region, and I also had the idea of visiting my old friends in my spare time, just because I had a lot of things at hand. There is simply no time.
Judging from the conversations of the five people, Byron's return trip is afraid that it will encounter Waterloo, and the "Apollo" pirates have been controlled by the guy named Albert.
"Tang Fang." Zhou Ai gave him a worried look.
"I know." He nodded. After a little thought, he lowered his voice and said, "Judging from the conversation of those five people. Byron's power struggle with Albert has been going on for months, and it won't be a problem for a short time, so it's better to wait until he returns from the free market and has regular work on the Ashtolando system, and then it's not too late to meet with him. β
"That's right, the most important thing right now is to collect the materials to make the dimensional lock."
On the other side, Claire watched the two whispering, couldn't help frowning, and asked Tang Fang, "Byron?" The pirate leader who escaped from Planet 5 with you? β
"Yes. That's him. Tang Fang smiled slightly: "If it weren't for Tang Lin and Tang Yun at the beginning, I'm afraid I would have come to the Tianchao Star Region a long time ago, perhaps, the two of us will never know each other in our lives." β
"Hey, Tang Fang, don't you really know the way of divination?" At this time, Zhou Ai suddenly thought of the conversation between the three of them before entering the door, and thought that it was this thing that was tricky, but he didn't expect that there was really an opportunity.
"Hey...... Hehe......" Tang Fang smiled a little embarrassedly, the way of divination? The way of fart divination! To put it bluntly, it's a blind cat running into a dead mouse. It's just a coincidence.
"You listen to him brag." Claire pouted.
"Uh......"
Just when Tang Fang was speechless, three people walked in outside the door, and the first one was tall and tall. The black hair on his arms grabbed a handful, and the two behind him were slightly smaller, looking like the former's followers.
"Huh? It's him? Zhou Ai's gaze swept over the door and was stunned. Claire turned her head to look, and the corners of her mouth raised slightly: "What did I say, someone is going to be unlucky." β
"Oh, you're here to seek revenge after a long time." Zhou Ai suddenly realized.
"No......" Tang Fang moved his buttocks and turned his back to the hall door, so that it was not easy to be recognized by visitors.
Not bad. The man who had just entered the door was none other than the ruffian Hilgai who had been pretending to be drunk and foolish at the Starport Cargo Dock and tearing up the tarpaulin wrapped in the remains of the Ipsisaur Ruins.
Seriously. Tang Fang's heart is actually not big, this is when Hilgai was drunk and crazy on the dock. But he greeted his mother. Not to mention that he now has a heavy army in his hands, it is not difficult to bloody the entire "Lokia", even if he only rides alone, he will never let go of the people behind him.
There are many people on the cargo dock, and there are also the guards of the Star Alliance, so it is difficult to start. Now......
"Tang Fang, what are you going to do with him?" Zhou Ai asked in a low voice.
"Hmph...... "Just like in the time of the Blood Gate, drive the machine gunner to give him a wild beating, and take back the system space after the incident, who can find out about him? Isn't it normal for ruffians to fight in groups among hooligans? What if the police come? At most, the three of them are suspected, and they can't come up with any evidence.
After listening to his thoughts, Claire rubbed her temples: "Alas, poor fellow, I don't know if those who are paid enough for him to see a doctor. β
Zhou Ai's eyes rolled, and he smiled: "Tang Fang, there is always a danger of exposure in doing this, it is better to give this matter to me, I haven't moved my body and bones for a long time, and if I don't find something to do, my joints will rust." β
"You?" Tang Fang was puzzled: "This is the territory of the Star Alliance, if something happens, it is very likely to have an adverse impact on our 'Babylon' party." β
He knows Zhou Ai's skills very well, and the three of Hilgai plus one piece are by no means her opponents, but the key is in case of poking out any basket, such as the girl is too heavy, and he will be half dead, thus provoking the government's police department. In this way, it is inevitable that the trip will be delayed.
"Don't worry, I'll be in control." Zhou Ai smiled at him, got up and walked in the direction of the bathroom.
Tang Fang and Claire looked puzzled, and Hillgai was on the other side, did she want to shush, relax and relax before going to business?
The two of them were stunned, Zhou Ai had already walked into the bathroom, and then only heard a short exclamation, which sounded like a woman. Claire's face changed, and she was about to go to see what was going on, when Tang Fang grabbed her and shook her head to signal her peace of mind.
Sure enough, with little effort, Zhou Ai walked out of the bathroom, but his dress was turned upside down compared to the previous moment. High heels, black stockings, hip-length skirts, low-cut shirts, lightly powdered, fine eyebrows, swaying when walking, seductive and sultry.
Tang Fang's eyes were straight, and his gaze swept from top to bottom, sweeping over her extremely material chest, her flexible and powerful waist, the roots of her white thighs, her slender calves tightly wrapped in stockings, and her narrow jade feet.
"This ...... This girl...... What a goblin. β
"Is it pretty?" Claire asked, narrowing her eyes.
"Hmm...... Not as good as you. "The so-called eating a trench grows a wisdom, Tang Fang's mouth is very tight this time, and he is the most annoying "subconsciously".
Life is a good teacher, and he tells us that we must not ignore a woman's jealousy, no matter how virtuous and gentle she is.
"Why is Zhou Ai dressed like this?" Claire frowned, it was clearly the tavern waiter's outfit.
As if seeing the gaze of the two, Zhou Ai blinked, held his heavy chest against Tang Fang, swayed his little buttocks left and right, and walked slowly to the bar.
"This little girl is an all-rounder, she can go up to the hall and go down to the kitchen, but she doesn't know ...... in bed."
"You want to try?" Claire looked at him with a smile. (To be continued) R655
