"You can count me as one. ”

Just as Ethan said he wanted to join, another person in the room stood up. Compared to the previous one, this man seems very inconspicuous, and he belongs to the kind of appearance that you can't find when you blend in the crowd.

He was also of average height, about the same height as Ethan, and this man was not surprising in any way, but the fact that he received Brent's invitation and stood here proved that he was a good adventurer. So Ethan didn't underestimate him, and even looked at him out of curiosity to see if there was anything special about this adventurer.

When the other party noticed Ethan's gaze, he didn't feel dissatisfied, but returned a friendly smile before continuing to talk to Brent.

"I'm going to go back and arrange my crew, I don't know how many people will stay. ”

The so-called arrangement of the crew is to screen out the members who are not willing to take this adventure, and then pay a severance pay or something.

In fact, the captain of the adventuring team has enough prestige that most of the time the captain alone can decide what to do next.

It's just that when encountering such a clear and huge positional risk, some more 'favorable' captains will greet their subordinates in advance, explain the risks, and then let their crew choose whether to continue to follow the captain or leave directly.

Choosing to leave is equivalent to quitting the group, considering that the adventure team in this world will settle the harvest on the spot every time they come back, so whether the captain will pay severance pay or not is completely out of the captain's personal thoughts, and it is not an inherent rule.

It's like these two will deliberately arrange it, and they obviously belong to the kind of captain who is more kind-hearted and very good to his subordinates.

"If it's too difficult, you don't have to say yes. ”

"I just think that these things do need some people to do, and if it's really a huge trouble, it won't be a good thing for all the adventurers in this sea to sit back and ignore it and turn into a bigger problem. ”

The ordinary-looking middle-aged captain finally gave his own advice.

"It's best to report to the guild, if we can't deal with this problem, the guild should take it seriously and come forward to recruit powerful adventurers to solve this problem. ”

"Thank you very much for the reminder, Captain Bruno. "Actually, Bruno thinks that Brent should have reported it, but Brent didn't deliberately show that 'I have already thought about this kind of thing'.

Bruno and Brent nodded, then said goodbye to Ethan and walked straight away.

The rest of the people also made decisions one after another, and they did not agree to join Brent's temporary expedition, and they did have all kinds of difficulties.

For example, one of them, whose ship had been badly damaged in his last adventure, had been scrapped after barely returning home, and now he had lost his fortune and replaced it with a new and good ship, but it was still a long time before he got it, and Brent certainly couldn't have wasted so much time waiting for his new ship to be launched.

Brent also expressed his understanding of this, this is indeed an irresistible factor, and the other party does not want to help.

In addition, there has been a heavy loss of manpower recently, and the re-recruited crew has made him afraid to carry out such a dangerous operation, and there will be many more variables to do this kind of thing with a group of unfamiliar men.

Not only the captain himself, but Brent didn't dare to let him go, so they could only say goodbye to each other.

One by one, everyone was gone, and in the end only Ethan was left, and he chatted with Brent a few more words to learn more about what Brent knew.

"The currents and waves in that area have become much more treacherous, and they are almost the same as in the back of the sea. At that time, my ship had been sailing for a while, and the damage was quite serious, and I did not dare to go too deep in this environment, so I could only observe from the periphery for a while. ”

"Did you find anything?"

"There may be an island. ”

"Possibly?"

This possible word is not very good, is it the island Can't Brent judge?

"Because the area is so large, when I observe from a distance, I even suspect that I see an endless land. ”

Ethan was surprised by this answer, how big would it be to think he had seen the islands of the 'mainland' in the distance, and they would be much larger than the central islands anyway, and such islands would suddenly appear on the way......

"Is the whole route blocked?"

"I'm not sure, but I tried to get around, but it didn't work. ”

"Didn't succeed? Was it attacked?"

"No, it's just that the ship wasn't in very good condition at the time. Brent shook his head, recalling the details: "The situation in Canada has become so bad that I have to go back." ”

After asking a few more questions, Ethan said goodbye to Brent.

He already knew that Brent would be there for a long time, and in addition to meeting with the captain who had responded to his recruitment, he would have to give these people time to think about and prepare.

There are many people like Ethan who have just returned to the island, and their ships need to be maintained, replenished, and even need to recruit new crews, and there is not enough time to prepare for another voyage.

Walking out of Brent's rented quarters, Ethan looked at the street again, the scattered adventurers had gone, he was the last captain to come out, and only Serena was waiting for him.

"Where's Logan?"

"Because you didn't come out, he took Laura back first. ”

Ethan looked up at the sky, and the whole sky had turned dark at this time, and it wasn't long before it got dark.

"Let's go back. ”

Serena didn't ask how the conversation went, she was now enjoying her new life and didn't care what she was going to do next.

"Have you eaten?"

"Drank the kind of artificial blood you configured in the morning. ”

It could be seen that Serena didn't like that thing, and even frowned when she mentioned it, if it weren't for the need to rely on this food to sustain herself, maybe she wouldn't even want to see it.

"I said I would find a way to make your constitution no longer resist ordinary food, so bear with me for a while, and I will try to solve this problem during this time. ”

Serena didn't expect that what Ethan said before was not casual, and she really wanted to do it. But she didn't know if this kind of thing could be done.

"It's not that hard to do. ”

As if sensing what Serena was thinking, Ethan almost patted his chest to emphasize his words.

"Thank you. ”

The two of them did not continue any further conversation, and quietly walked back to the residence.

Ethan's rented accommodation was not huge, but each room was fully equipped with all kinds of amenities, and in addition to that, there was a separate courtyard, which was enough for their team.

Ethan, who hadn't eaten dinner yet, bought a few random things on the way to fill his stomach, and then went back to his room.

What he had to do, of course, was to put a pool of warm water, and then soak it in a drop of strengthening potion for the night.

Ethan was preparing when there was a knock on his door.

"Logan?"

This building is inhabited by his own people, and the only people who come to find him are the people on his own boat, and Logan's appearance is not surprising, because Logan is here to help him guard the door.

"Ready?"

After Diana left, Logan took the initiative to take on the role of janitor out of safety, and he is currently the only suitable person on the ship.

Laura was still a child, Loki was on guard, and Selena didn't suit her, not to mention whether she could be entrusted with the task of being on the ship.

Because once Loki wants to be against Ethan, Serena can't stop him at all - and neither can Logan, but he can delay Loki's actions with his immortality and buy Ethan time.

"I know you'll be coming soon. ”

Logan nodded, then took a chair and placed it at the intersection of the bathroom door and the door, where he could sit and watch both directions.

It's okay to stay at the bathroom door, but he has no interest in Ethan's body at all, let alone a full tour, as for Ethan, will something happen to Ethan?

After so many days of continuous reinforcement, the probability of the situation has dropped to a very low level, so he is mainly here to guard the main entrance.

"You don't mind if I smoke a cigar, do you?"

"Feel free to do whatever you want. ”

In fact, Ethan didn't mind, Logan had already taken out the cigar and sat back in his chair, his feet resting on a cabinet next to him, fully demonstrating his height advantage.

Logan's behavior seems to have no concern for Ethan's safety at all, and if his casual attitude is changed to someone who doesn't understand, he will definitely be dissatisfied with this guy.

But Ethan knows that if something really happens, Logan is much more trustworthy than those bodyguards who seem to be dedicated, don't say anything about his immortal body, of course, he can wave casually, you must know that every time he is seriously injured or even near death, Logan suffers a lot of pain, except for the last breath that he didn't swallow, he really experienced the pain of dying.

Ethan hadn't experienced that feeling yet, but it was impossible for any normal person to enjoy it. Logan is normal in his mindset, so he certainly doesn't like to experience death again and again.

"I have only one request. ”

Just as Ethan was about to lie down in the pool, Logan's voice came from outside.

"What?"

"When you come out, be sure to get dressed first. ”

"......" Ethan lay speechless in the pool, and before submerging his head in the water, he gave Logan a very positive answer: "Don't worry, I don't have the habit of showing my body to people everywhere." ”

Especially if the other party is still a man.
