Chapter 202: The Age of Discovery (25)
"You don't know each other when you put on your clothes?"
As soon as he heard this, Rod first made a big red face, did the man mean that if he took off his clothes, she would be able to know him?
And where do you need to undress?
Rod looked at Ye Qing and didn't say anything.
"Underwhelming?" She glanced at him.
"Niu'er, last time in the brothel, you made me very shameful, we were doing other things at the time, and we didn't play well, and now, I challenge you."
Ye Qingli didn't react yet, but Rod was taken aback.
"Challenge?" Rod stared at Jasper, suddenly showed a look of sudden realization, and said, "You want to challenge her?" ”
Jasper is a head taller than Ye Qing, whether it is his size or age, he obviously has an advantage over Ye Qing, and Ye Qing, Rhodes has seen her ability when dealing with the front ship of the Double Axe Pirate Group at sea, she is indeed flexible, but she is far from being able to deal with the man as strong as a bear standing in front of them at this time.
Jasper is tall and has a powerful appearance, and at first glance he is not the type to provoke.
Rod didn't know how Ye Qing provoked him, but Jasper said that he wanted to challenge her, obviously he wanted to bully her, how could Rod let the other party bully his friend in front of him!
Before Rod opened his mouth, Jasper looked at Ye Qing and asked, "Is he?" ”
"Rod, borrow your sword and use it."
Rod drew his sword, but did not hand the sword to Ye Qing, he said to Jasper: "If you want to challenge her, you will fight me first." ”
Rod said and rushed over, Jas's reflexes were much better than the last time in the brothel, he turned slightly sideways to avoid Rode's first blow, at the same time, Jasper turned around, a dagger in his hand, and immediately cut through the bag on Rod's waist.
The two stood on one side to the other.
The dagger swirled in Jasper's hand, and he glanced at the position of Rod's waist, the corner of his mouth on the right side of his mouth raised.
Rod turned his neck, clenched his sword, sank the plate with force, and rushed towards Jasper again.
Swords collide and rub against each other, making a screeching sound, even against Rhodes, who is beyond the ordinary physique, Jasper is not inferior.
But after a few moves, Jasper gradually fell behind.
Jasper is not as strong as Rhodes.
The two wanted to continue, but Ye Qing interrupted the two.
"Rod, it's time to go."
Rhodes gathered his sword and headed to the boat.
Jasper slowly pulled out a thin dagger and aimed it at Rod's vest.
Just as the dagger flew towards Rhodes, only a crisp sound was heard, and a copper coin hit the dagger.
The dagger deflected and fell to the ground.
Ye Qing glanced at him coldly, but he raised his eyebrows and smiled at her.

There was a tailwind from Wendy to Naples, and three days later, Ye Qing and Rhodes arrived on Naples.
Naple is the largest island near the mainland of Nolan, with sunny sunshine all year round, abundant rainfall, moderate temperatures, and many green plants, flowers and insects that cannot be seen elsewhere on the island, so Naple is also the place with the most pharmacists.
"The pharmacist we're looking for is called Flix, he's very knowledgeable about poisons, and we've been to the poison bog together."
In a treehouse, they found Flix.
He was doing an experiment when he added another liquid to a bottle, and a white gas came out of the bottle.
His right hand is not particularly convenient, as there are only three fingers.
Flick finished his work before he sat down to listen to Rod.
Knowing Rod's intentions, Flix asked, "Are you still going to find the Lost City?" ”
"Barrio has captured Gloria, and their destination is the Lost City." Rhodes didn't hide it and told everything about everything, especially the fact that Barrio killed the crew.
After hearing this, Flix asked, "Is the ship ready?" ”
"It's being renovated, and we should be about the same when we go back."
"Let's go, then. I'll pack up and leave tomorrow morning. ”
Frix got up as he spoke, he turned and walked out of the tree house, and Ye Qing followed, and she saw him climb down the trunk of the tree with a slightly clumsy movement, and into a dense jungle, disappearing among the branches and leaves.
"It's so easy to convince him?" Ye Qing felt a little hard to believe.
"It's not as difficult as you think."
Rhodes told Ye Qing that there were two main reasons why Flicks agreed to their invitation.
"Did you notice his right hand?"
Ye nodded lightly.
"The man who cut off the little finger and ring finger of his right hand is none other than Barrio."
Rod only knew this, but he didn't know what it was.
Anyway, Flix must hate Barrio.
"It was a coincidence that I met him when I first went to find the Lost City......"
"Flicks has been studying Ghost Fire for decades, and he believes that Ghost Fire is not the soul of a demon, but has something to do with artillery, and the development of the cannon is Wendy's biggest secret, and ordinary people naturally can't know about it."
"I don't know where he heard that the Golden Temple of the Lost City has the recipe for the Ghost Fire, and he wants to go to the Lost City as well."
After listening to Rod, Ye Qing asked, "Can you trust him?" ”
"To each according to his needs. He wants to find the Lost City, whether it's our ship or someone else's, as long as he has the opportunity, he will set off, and we need him to help us provide us with an antidote, the poisonous gas of the poison swamp is quite powerful. You also heard Adam say that there is no wind and there are many poisonous gases in the air. ”
It took a lot of time to get back to Wendy from Naples, and they had to take a boat to the westernmost part of Ebins, buy a horse-drawn carriage, and pass south of Hewest from Ebbens to Wendy.
Back in Wendy, twelve days had passed since their departure.
Originally, when leaving, Rod agreed with Adam and another gunner to board the ship in ten days, but now two days later, as soon as they arrived in Wendy's main city, Rod and Ye Qing went to find Adam first.
Adam had already dealt with James's mother's affairs, and they had been waiting for Rod to return at the tavern.
Adam kept his promise, but one of the gunners he had agreed with Rhodes left with the rest of the fleet.
"There can be no less gunners." When Adam learned about the gunner, he immediately went out to find someone.
Rod and Ye Qing went to Merlin Bay, and Juan's remodeled ship should be completed.
Halfway through, Rhodes looked worried again.
He had just learned from Adam that Wendy's Maritime was more strict about the installation of guns on ordinary ships, and since pirates would loot merchant ships and remove them from their guns, they would only be equipped with old smoothbore guns.
However, if Rhodes and the others want to go to the Lost City, they will inevitably encounter a pirate group, and if there is no latest artillery, it is equivalent to no artillery.
"If we didn't have a smoothbore cannon, we'd be fish on a chopping board!"
"How big of a difference?"
"The old smoothbore gun was equipment many years ago, and the current smoothbore gun has greatly improved the accuracy of the strike, as well as the flexible throwing distance, the old smoothbore gun can't be compared at all!"
