Chapter 669: Emergencies
Houdini's face had become much haggard in just half a day, and it could be seen that he had not had time to take a shower until now, and it was estimated that he had suffered a lot of blows before he had to come to the door. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The old mage was also not reserved, and told his story very frankly. And as he poured out these bad things, the suffocating feeling in his chest as if he would vomit blood at any time dissipated most of it.
β... At the end of the day, I was able to return even the papers I had submitted without looking at them, which was probably the most humiliating thing I've ever done in Lasiman - could it be that I am now a rat in their eyes, and I am a magister!"
Houdini sighed, took a few sips of the juice Roddy had handed him and took several sips - he looked a little weak after the rage. Houdini leaned back in his chair and continued in a low voice, "I'm afraid our previous plans have been in vain, and Rasiman is obviously not so friendly to you and me. The 'Twilight Crown' is obviously also a pit that has been dug a long time ago... At this grand event, the Evta Mission will definitely be suppressed in various ways. β
"Take one step at a time, in fact, planning or something, it is originally a train of thought. It's not as complicated as you think, at least not here to get me to change my mind. β
Luo Di playfully turned the silver fork in his hand and said with a smile: "Actually, their attitude actually gives me more room to play." Don't worry, one day, they will cry and beg you for your paper. β
Houdini knew that this guy Roddy couldn't deal with it with common sense, so he nodded: "What you need me to do, just tell me at any time." β
He knew there was no need to stay here now, so he got up and left. Roddy sat at the table and looked at Houdini's back, his gaze retracted, but he glanced around covertly - he had been feeling that someone was following him on the way from the dock to here, but it was unknown which force the other party was.
This is not Elson, although Roddy arrogantly beat two groups of people today, he obviously knows very well when to make trouble and when not to make trouble. Facing this watcher hiding in the shadows, Roddy did not startle the snake, but withdrew his gaze.
He drank all the drinks in front of him and walked back to the hotel. Soon I met Akasha and the others who were about to walk around, and after thinking about it, I changed my clothes and went to the street with a few people.
At the port, the flagship "Poratini" has already been transported to the military port for maintenance after transporting all the cargo. At this time, the vicinity of the pier seemed a little empty, but as it got late and the fishing boats returned, it became lively again.
In recent times, the fishermen have been reaping a lot more than in the past. For them who live by the sea and eat the sea, this is indeed something to be excited about. Today looks no exception, with people disembarking from fishing boats smiling and boasting about the size of the fish they caught today.
But listening to the sound of their chat, Bloom's mood did not improve at all.
He was the "porter" who was thrown into the sea by Erwin at noon today - his real identity was actually a brave and ruthless gangster in the city of Duriel.
Today, I came here with my men because I received an "appearance fee" of three gold coins from Ballenna's employer.
I thought this was a simple "performance", but I didn't know that I ran into an iron plate. Being thrown into the sea is actually nothing to him, but he can't get back the face he folded in front of his subordinates... For gangsters who rely on face to eat, with today's appearance, it is basically impossible to get back to their original status in the future.
So after he went ashore, he felt that he didn't have the face to go back, so he took off his shirt and dried it on the dock alone, and until now he still sits like a sculpture.
And just as Bloom was thinking about his life, there was a sudden commotion near the docks. The sound came from far and near, and then I saw a lot of people curiously surrounding a certain fishing boat. Bloom looked up a little strangely, but he was almost kicked by the fisherman who ran in front of him, he scolded "shit that doesn't know whether to live or die", but after getting up, he couldn't hold back the curiosity in his heart, and looked in the direction of the group of people.
"Are you in a hurry, are you in a hurry to feed Polis?"
"Polis" is the "god of the sea" believed in by the fishermen of Rasiman - whether the ruling class is a mage or a former church god, the toiling masses at the bottom of society have this kind of god worship plot, and "Polis" is a guy who is 100 meters tall, infinitely powerful, and can call the wind and rain to control the waves.
Bloom has been a gangster for a long time, and there are basically no clean words in his mouth. He cursed and dodged the fishermen who ran by, and at the same time approached the almost encircled fishing boat in three steps.
"Oh my God, what is this!?"
"This is the messenger of Polis!"
"Bullshit... It's a fishman!"
"Nonsense, where have you ever seen a fishman grow so big?"
Bloom heard the chatter all around him, and wondered what had caused so many people to watch. He was used to crossing the dock, and when he saw that there were too many people to squeeze in, he directly pushed the person in front of him away with both arms. Some fishermen turned around and tried to scold, but when they saw that it was Bloom, they all shut up.
So the gangster leader easily came to the fishing boat, and pushed aside the last guy who stood in front of him, and at a glance he saw several corpses lying horizontally on the deck of the fishing boatβit was okay not to look at it, but if he looked closely, he was suddenly startled by the blue-skinned corpse!
In the sea, bright colors often mean danger. The creatures with limbs and tails in front of them had very conspicuous blue spots, and their skin was smooth and oily like a frog. The length of the body is about three meters, and the length of the body alone has reached two meters, not counting the tail. The limbs are long and powerful, the claws glow like daggers, and the mouth on the head is unusually large, and it feels like a normal human can bite off the head with a single mouth.
They had a lot of wounds on their corpses, and it looked like they had been attacked by their own kind or simply killed each other, and just thinking about the strength of these guys under the water made Bloom shiver...
People who live by the sea are in awe of the creatures of the sea. Not to mention the guy who is more than three meters long at the moment, many times even a fish that is more than half a meter long can kill people. If it was a sea creature that had produced a magic crystal, the fishermen would not have had time to hide - Bloom's grandfather had been severely injured by a "swordfish" that had flown out of the sea, and finally died.
He looked at these guys in front of him for a few seconds, and was immediately squeezed away by the people behind him who wanted to come up and watch. But the crowd was soon interrupted by a distant thud - someone shouted "The mage of the council is here", and everyone stopped moving, and then slowly dispersed in all directions. (To be continued.) )
