Chapter 10: Elves
Finally has his own pirate group, although this pirate group is second-hand, but it can't affect Sorgeth's good mood in the slightest, maybe there is only one thing that can make his mood a little bad.
"I said, this Hell Pirate Regiment was caused by a lack of common sense? Isn't this a curse to send us to Hell? No wonder your former captain was so short-lived, and he gave such a bullshit name, it was difficult to live a long life!"
Bode, is the first pirate to surrender, born in a small kingdom called Lita in the subject countries of the French Empire, although the Lita country is a vassal of the French Empire, but in terms of geographical location is closer to the Longyuan country, listening to his description seems to have wanted to be a navy, but this country has obviously been corrupted to the extreme, if you want to be a navy, you have to give some benefits to the officer, I have long heard that the civilians of the Longyuan country are living a life that some small nobles in the Rita country are envious, so they plan to immigrate to the Longyuan country after joining the navy, but unfortunately, on the way out of the city secretly have not had time to go out of the country, was discovered by an officer who happened to go out hunting, and went out of the city at night to pay the city tax, and the poor and white Bode did not explain, so he directly picked up a brick and opened the officer's head, and then began his life as an outlaw.
The pirates who had just surrendered to Cheng looked at each other, and at the same time agreed with the captain's words, these pirates were basically from poor families, not to mention that they couldn't afford to go to the academy, even if they could come up with this money, they would not study hard with peace and stability with this group of lawless guys, therefore, their education level has been low to the extent that they will only follow the crowd, and what others say, they think it is.
It's like, they used to think that the name Hell Pirates was imposing, but now they think it's a bad name......
"There's no way, it seems that Captain Ben can only design a pirate flag himself!" Sojes was full of excitement, but he pretended to be helpless with a reluctant expression. So he ordered his subordinates to prepare paint and black canvas, and it didn't take long for a banner with a dragon head pattern on a black background to be freshly baked.
"Boyd, you take someone and hang this pirate flag. Bower took the order and called a well-connected pirate to climb the lookout with the pirate flag.
Looking at the pirate flag fluttering in the wind, Sorjes said proudly: "From today onwards, our pirate group is officially renamed the Dragon Tooth Pirate Group, dragons are the most powerful creatures, we don't have the power of dragons, but we have fangs as sharp as dragons, we are the members of the Dragon Tooth Pirate Group, no matter who the opponent is, there is only one end waiting for them, that is, we tear them to pieces!"
"Well said the captain!"
"Long live Captain Sojers! Long live the Dragon's Tooth Pirates!"
In the sound of a wolf's howl, Sorjes finally had a sense of accomplishment, and suddenly, he realized the reason why Ingram was reluctant to return to the navy until his death, although being a pirate was a point of no return, but this feeling of doing what he wanted was really unstoppable.
While a group of people were howling, Pod suddenly remembered something and ran over, and said urgently: "Captain, I just remembered that there is an elf slave on our ship!"
Elf!?Sojess widened his eyes: "I'm rubbing, you're not going to fool Lao Tzu, are you? You can catch elves with your little strength?"
Elves, if you talk about this race, people will instinctively think of the extraordinary appearance of the elves, yes, the elves and the mermaids are called the most beautiful races in the world, even the ugliest one can be called a standout in the crowd, but what many people don't know is that in addition to their beauty, elves are also comparable to their appearance.
Although elves are born with low fertility, the strength of the elves is still comparable to the entire military power of an empire, and every adult elf is a natural marksman. The habitat of the elves is in the vast whispering forest located on the border of the two continents in the blue sea and the holy beast sea, the whispering forest covers a large area, if even those areas that are not in the range of elven activities are counted, it is about the size of a half-flange empire, many empires are not without the idea of attacking here, but every time they attack the whispering forest, they will suffer heavy casualties due to the demonic beasts and aggressive plants on the periphery of the forest before they fight head-on with the elves, and over time, no country dares to take the initiative to provoke the elves。
In addition, the elves have an innate yearning for beautiful things, and the handicrafts they produce have always been the most popular luxury items for the upper class, but human nature is greedy, and the elves themselves are also coveted by humans because of their extraordinary beauty. I don't know when it began, many slave traders took the opportunity to arrest some lonely or small groups of elves under the banner of trading handicrafts with elves, and these elves would be robbed once they were put into the slave market, and the price was staggering, and slowly, the signs of elf activities in the human empire became less.
Therefore, for such a group of shrimp soldiers and crab generals actually claiming to be holding an elven slave on the ship, Sojes obviously did not believe it: "Don't tell me, that soft egg of Klein actually has the courage to go to the whispering forest to catch people, then I really want to admire him!"
Although Pod had only known this captain for a long time, he also felt that this captain was a little out of tune, so he didn't talk nonsense, but just motioned for the captain to follow him to the cabin.
According to Bode, this elf's ability to be captured by the former Hell Pirate Group seems to have been injured before, Sojes suddenly realized, and at the same time raised a little vigilance in his heart, he has never seen an elf, and he doesn't know if the elf will have other secret techniques besides bows and arrows, but at this time, be careful!
Opening the hatch, Sorgeth looked at the elf locked to the pillar and couldn't help but let out a sigh, the legend is indeed not exaggerating, the elf in front of him obviously has an Adam's apple in the throat, if it weren't for this feature, Sorges would even think he was a woman.
"Although this elf is a man, but the price of the male elf seems to be not low, it is estimated that it can be compared to a magic ship, after all, there are many nobles who prefer male style now, and there are many nobles who are in favor of men~" This evil thought just flashed in his heart, although Sojes was determined to become a pirate, but he did not plan to get involved in the slave business.
The elf naturally also noticed Sojes wearing the captain's hat, first stunned, and then resumed his silence, his attitude made Sojes can't help but feel a burst of sympathy in his heart, or these sympathies also have a lot to do with the elf's handsome appearance, even if Sojes is not a person who likes "base feelings".
With a wave of his hand, Bode walked out of the cabin in understanding, but he still stood at the door for fear of the captain's safety, a gesture that made Sorgers even more impressed with him. Soon, though, his attention shifted to the elf.
It can be seen that the face of the elf in front of him is full of desolation that mourning is greater than death, but his emerald pupils like jewels reveal a firmness that can be seen at a glance, and it can be concluded that if Sojes chooses to sell him, then the moment he sells again, this elf will choose to kill himself.
Chen Cheng once studied psychology, and the results of the research are now cheap for Sojers: if a person wants to die because he feels that life is boring, then there is no need to persuade him at the beginning, and finding a way to make him actively curious about some things is the first task. Sojes didn't know what the elf was interested in, but he knew what the other party wanted, and at the same time, he knew that his appearance definitely made the elf's originally stagnant state of mind have a little ripple, otherwise he wouldn't have shown that flash of stunned just now.
This is the breakthrough chosen by Sorjes!
