Volume 1 The Beginning of It All Chapter 40 Insignificant
"Negotiations? Oh, it's up to you? The royal sister sneered, looked around, and was not afraid.
At this time, the two ships had already entered the broadside battle for a long time, and the crew of the Black Pearl had not passed by here for a long time, which showed that the other party was really able to compete with the pirate king Teague, and it was obvious that this woman relied on this.
"Can't you?"
To the surprise of both this woman and Raphael, this sentence not only came out of Liao Yu's mouth, but the green dragon on the side, who had even been choked up a few times before, actually became angry at this moment.
For a while, all three of them turned their eyes to the green dragon, only to see him solemnly pull out a simple dark yellow rune from his arms, which was painted with complex dark red runes, and Liao Yu could only vaguely recognize that there seemed to be an edict on it.
This is the first time Liao Yu has seen the green dragon take out the talisman seal attached to the real thing, in his spiritual world, there seems to be a small snowstorm brewing there, and his spiritual power is even faintly frostbitten as soon as he gets closer.
At the moment when the green dragon took out the talisman, the royal sister suddenly took a step back, and the wooden plank under her feet let out a piercing moan, and the sudden rising momentum forced away Liao Yu and Raphael on her left and right at the same time.
"You have such a thing."
The royal sister's face was full of incredulity, even though she didn't know the specific effect of this talisman, but judging from the energy fluctuations that were constantly emitted above, the extreme energy of this talisman at an instant was likely to break through her mental barrier in one fell swoop.
"Talk or get out, and don't forget, this is the Black Pearl." The green dragon suspended the ancient rune between its palms, and the dark yellow rune paper stood straight in the air, and the flickering runes indicated that it could be activated at any time.
At the same time, Liao Yu also opened his left hand that had been placed in front of his chest, and a blazing fireball was dancing steadily up and down in his palm, and the highly condensed magic power obviously made the power of this fireball close to the power of conventional fireball techniques.
And this kind of stable state that is about to be released shows Liao Yu's superb level of mental power control, if it weren't for the fact that he has tempered his mental power by manipulating the magic array repeatedly in the past few days, Liao Yu really can't do such fine control.
The royal sister's momentum finally slowly fell, her gaze swept back and forth between Liao Yu and the three of them several times, and then immediately decided: "Deal, my name is Amy, and my mission is to protect this noble merchant ship to reach its destination safely." ”
She did not hesitate to lower her posture at all, and at the same time, she did not care about her face because of her condescending actions, which shows that she usually acts in such a calm and decisive style.
Seeing this, Liao Yu dispersed the fireball in his hand first, he was different from the green dragon who could use the entity of the talisman seal, and the maintenance of the fireball completely required the support of his magic and spiritual power, which was also a big burden for him.
And after the green dragon took out the charm, he swept away the original big smug and nagging, and the solemnity in his eyes at this moment made him unexpectedly much more reliable. At this time, Liao Yu once again recalled the scene where the green dragon skillfully drew talismans in the air during the battle, which made him begin to evaluate the person of the green dragon again in his heart.
"You didn't just behave." Raphael scoffed, after all, he was the first to be injured. Fortunately, he understood the overall situation and controlled his tone not to go too far.
"Now that you know that this is the Pirate King of the Caribbean, who is vaguely tied with David Jones for the first place among the pirate kings, how can you not come to see what treasures there are." Amy controlled her emotions in the blink of an eye, and there was no trace of her previous emotions in her tone.
Liao Yu originally planned to take advantage of the importance of Captain Teague and Jack and the others to attract the help of the Black Pearl by lighting the rum in the room. Although Liao Yu thinks that he is not important enough for the Pirate King to be willing to protect himself desperately, since the other party is such a "weak" character, Captain Teague doesn't mind driving this guy away.
"Since you already know that our ship is the Black Pearl, then may I ask what is the origin of your merchant ship, as a sincere cooperation, this information is not too much."
"Marquis Sherlock's merchant ship had a holiday with the Pirate King of Tigue in his early years because of the slave trade."
Speaking of the slave trade, Amy's face made no secret of her disgust.
The three of them feel the same way, and the missions released by Hantang will never be adjusted due to the personal preferences of the explorers.
"It is said that it was because one of his slave ships was intercepted by Captain Teague and then ...... He freed all the slaves, and the ensuing chain reaction resulted in heavy losses for the Marquis Sherlock, who vowed to hunt down the Black Pearl. Amy tilted her head at the three of them, seemingly confused by what Captain Teague had done.
The three of them looked at each other, and judging from Captain Teague's evaluation of Blackbeard, and the unsparing reward he gave to his subordinates after the war, it was really possible for such a thing to be done. Liao Yu, on the other hand, had more in-depth contact with the core crew of the Black Pearl, and he felt that with the attitude of Captain Teague and the first mate and others, this was not such an unacceptable thing.
"If this is the case, the two sides must now be in a situation of undying, unless there is a prayer for someone on both sides to take the initiative to leave with compassion, or...... We forcibly separate them? With Raphael's words, the situation between the four became delicate again.
Judging from some of the cores of the Black Pearl that Liao Yu has come into contact with in the past few days, the Teague ship is not as gentle as it is on the deck in the long run, and I think that the two of them should have obtained a lot of information behind it when they participated in the daily work of the Black Pearl.
What's more, Teague Sparrow and David Jones are the two most powerful pirate kings, and how can they let each other go in the face of an enemy who takes the initiative to attack.
As for the Marquis Sherlock, he had been preparing for years after that oath, and this time he would not just go away just to meet and catch up.
In fact, at this time, Amy had a vague regret in her heart, because Marquis Sherlock had the confidence to take the initiative to find the Black Pearl this time, largely because of her help.
Compared to Liao Yu and the others, Amy can already be regarded as a senior explorer, so the task given by Hantang is not to simply protect the merchant ship of the Marquis of Sherlock, but on this basis, to help the other party deal with a certain Warcraft settlement, and then hand over a certain number of designated items.
However, how could Amy be satisfied with simply completing the task, she had a hard time getting a little information about one of her promotions, and one of the special items was about to fall on the Marquis family.
So she worked hard to help the Marquis obtain more rare magic materials during the mission, and soon received the Marquis's attention.
However...... After this incident, the Marquis's strength increased greatly, and after paying a certain price, he found someone to predict the approximate range of the Black Pearl's target, and took the fleet to ambush in this sea area for a long time in advance.
Amy's several persuasions from the side could not reverse the marquis's obsession, so she could only follow her head-on.
However, even if the Black Pearl was powerful, Marquis Sherlock was not unprepared, as an old enemy of Captain Teague, he knew that his ship was definitely not comparable to the Black Pearl, which was already heading towards the legendary battleship, so he brought a full eight warships with him this time.
Just to be able to find the traces of the Black Pearl in the first place, these eight warships lurked in this sea like a net, and as time went by, the situation of the Black Pearl would only get worse and worse.
Thinking of this, and then thinking of the punishment for failing the mission, Amy's gaze began to wander between the three again.
"Don't think about it, even if you defeat us, you won't be able to stop Captain Teague from inflicting heavy damage on your marquis. Captain Teague is far ahead of our game. ”
Sensing Amy's gaze, Raphael said angrily, at this time he was already thinking about how to remedy the task and reduce the punishment.
Raphael's words eased the atmosphere a little, the combat effectiveness of the four people belongs to the level that has nothing to do with the overall situation in the conflict between the two forces, and it is difficult to influence the decisions of the two giants no matter what means are used, this is a fact that the four of them know well.
"The only ones who can decide the beginning and end of the battle are Captain Teague and the Marquis." The green dragon leaned back against the wall of the corridor, the quaint talisman fluttering left and right in his hand, always in a state of activation at any time.
"Regardless of the specific tasks of our respective forces, in order to recover the losses as much as possible, the best plan is for each of us to do something to the people on the other ship, on the one hand, it is not a violation of the mission given to us, and on the other hand, we can increase the degree of contribution to the mission. Based on your own understanding of Hantang, I don't think I need to teach you how to improve its judgment on the completion of tasks. ”
Hearing Amy's words, Green Dragon and Raphael began to ponder and weigh the pros and cons, and at that moment, another voice sounded.
"Actually, there is another way."
