Chapter 34: Transactions on a Rainy Night
More and more code proposals are being finalized by this gang of gangsters who usually only use knives and slash people most of the time.
Taking a sip of a pirate poured wine, Zhao Qian squinted his eyes and looked at the information of the golden plot mission on his wrist, as if he was outside the noise.
"You've gotten an extra boost to your right hand injury thanks to your drink of the pirates of the Caribbean's unique private reserve rum."
"Your milestone rum lover is on the verge of drinking a glass of private-back rum (5 gold medal rums) unique to the Pirates of the Caribbean world."
"You currently have a completion of 5/100 and need to drink 90 shots of rum to unlock the Rum Lovers designation."
"Hint: You get the Golden Story Mission: Codex Signing."
Gold Story Mission: Codex Signing.
Difficulty: D
Objective: To help the Pirate Kings of the Second Pirate Tournament so that they can successfully sign the Pirate Code.
Mission advice: Be careful, be cautious, there is a turbulent undercurrent down here.
Quest Hint: This may be a conspiracy by someone.
Mission duration: three days.
"Henry Morgan, you're sure you want to lose the friendship of the pirates of the East!"
At first, the parties were able to sit down and discuss slowly, but in the end, they had to lift the table.
Because of interests, the atmosphere of the meeting began to be tense.
The issue of the code was only halfway through the proposal, because the issue of Morgan's waterway merchant ships had violated a certain part of the interests of Zheng Qi and Xiao Hailong, and the parties had a handover relationship between you and me, and they broke up unhappily.
Bartholomew reluctantly sat down in his seat and lit his wooden pipe. The baron of pirates was quite restrained and Sven.
"That's it, tonight is a children's party."
Spat out the smoke ring, Bartholomew said. got up, and he left with Zhao Qian behind him without squinting.
"Go play, nobleman."
Bartholomew said to Zhao Qian, who was a little confused, and the other party nodded a little rudely and turned to leave. The captain was clearly accustomed to this kind of personality of his men.
Zhao Qian didn't care much about his NPC-like characters along the way.
Because the sound of the ticket in his ears had taken over all the sounds, including the noise in the tavern where he sat down at random.
The dancer who came out of nowhere is dancing a seductive dance between this group of male creatures with some strong hormones, three points and two lines plus the most primitive temptation. The sound of alcohol, shisha, and gold coins gave every man playing in this place an adrenaline rush.
“%¥#@amp; amp; ”
The tavern was filled with Afro-American music, which most people didn't understand. The soothing music of Europe and the East seems to have lost its rightful market position.
"Due to your heroic performance in the battle between the Black Baron and the Satisfaction, many sailors are proclaiming your heroic deeds, and more and more pirates are aware of your deeds, and you gain a 100 reputation bonus, which is currently 325/1000."
"Due to your well-known deeds of killing rotting corpses, you gain 325 reputation points, and your current reputation is 650/1000."
"Your message is being spread by more and more sailors, and more and more crew members who have been injured by rotting corpses are starting to spread your story (which has a lot of ingredients), and you gain 300 reputation points, which are currently 950/1000."
“……”
The reputation value kept going up, and finally stopped at 1300 points.
With a move in his mind, Zhao Qian checked his position on the prestige list.
2nd place.
Yes, looking at the string of question marks at the top of the prestige list, except for the more than 1500 prestige points, everything else is invisible.
And the one under him who seems to be the modern weapon enthusiast on the Satisfaction, 1000 reputation points, it is estimated that it has something to do with ambushing himself. That guy may have had the idea of stepping on someone else's corpse in the first place, and it seems that the method is quite old-fashioned. But it's also very practical.
After taking a sip of the gold medal rum that had just been brought over by a waitress in the tavern, Zhao Qian seemed to remember that he didn't order it at all.
Raising his head and sweeping, a one-eyed, somewhat scruffly dressed pirate in the distance raised his glass to him.
"To our senseless blessings!"
I don't know who in the tavern said loudly, causing many sailors to raise their glasses, and even many French pirates looked at the good-looking third mate proudly.
"Oh! To the fearless! ”
"Brave!"
Many pirates said that they have always loved to drink, and there is no shortage of reasons to raise a glass to drink. And this reason seems to be pretty good.
Zhao Qian also stood up, raised his wine glass, and nodded in response one by one.
More and more cups were sent to Zhao Qian's table, including one or two women with curvaceous figures who ran towards him with a lot of wink.
After about 15 drinks, he walked out of the tavern in a daze, to the enthusiastic cheers of the sailors.
"Milestone: Rum lovers. You currently have a completion of 20/100 and you still need to drink 80 cups of Gold Rum (40 cenels). ”
Walking along a grove of small forests that not many people had walked, Zhao Qian walked towards the seaside of the shipwreck harbor. He's still sober, but he still wants to sober up. That rum lover seemed to be far more difficult than he had imagined, especially if he wanted to do it in a few days, it was almost impossible. Unless you're a big wine jar.
After taking a few more steps forward, he bent down and lifted a hanging branch, but Zhao Qian's footsteps stopped.
Because he smelled something else, cigars, and fishy.
It's not bloody, it's the fishy smell. All the movements seemed to be silent at this moment, and even the heartbeat decreased a lot.
By the blowing sea breeze, he heard the sound of breathing and talking.
"What do I want?"
In a word, it looks like the dialogue between the underworld in some film and television dramas. The voice was a little strange, like someone pinching their throat and resonating through their noses.
"No, mine doesn't, and yours doesn't either."
Another voice answered, but the timbre was somewhat familiar. Zhao Qian was very sure that he had definitely heard this voice somewhere.
But there was no sound to speak, the rain suddenly fell from the sky, but Zhao Qian, who was hiding in the woods, did not move.
The atmosphere was oppressive and silent. People hiding in the shadows instinctively feel that something is wrong, and they can't even hear a single bug or bird chirping around. It contrasts sharply with the loud croaking of frogs in the distance.
A flash of lightning streaked across the sky, and through the gap between the trees, Zhao Qian saw two pairs of feet standing facing each other.
"Boom! You'd better hurry, Morgan. You are not the only one who can use the alchemy materials of Ghost Shadow Gold. ”
After a long time, the voice said, and the background music was the roaring thunder.
Throw.
Under the lightning, the octopus-faced beard silently threw the bottle over. He was caught by a middle-aged man with a captain's hat and a normal look.
