Chapter 12 Coercion and Inducement
Lina's expression in the combat state was serious, noble and cold, as if she had completely changed someone. The huge sea monster like a hill in front of her seemed to be just an ant in her eyes, and a kind of momentum looking down on the common people unconsciously emanated, making Saya who came into contact with her for the first time frequently sideways.
Leach was already accustomed to Lena in this state, so his attention was entirely focused on the sea monster in his frenzied state.
I saw that the part of the sea monster's body shrouded in black mist quickly dissolved at a speed visible to the naked eye, revealing the moon-white tender flesh under the scale armor, and the blood had completely dissipated under the effect of the corrosion technique before it even had time to flow out. It seems that the effect of the corrosive technique is very good, although it only covers a piece the size of a basin, but the effect is far greater than the previous attack of Ki and Saya.
Leach saw the opportunity and rushed forward as fast as he could, cutting off the sea monster's tentacle without much effort.
At this time, Lina's second corrosion spell had also been prepared, and she floated towards the sea monster unhurriedly. The sea monster's few wisdom made it know that it had kicked the iron plate this time, and that it could no longer care about a full meal, so it let go of the pirate ship and fell into the sea with a pop, only to be soaked in a dark green on the surface of the sea, and then fled far into the deep sea.
"Phew, it's good that this big guy is very timid, otherwise the three of us would be in big trouble!" After making sure that the sea monster would not appear again, Leach sat on a fairly intact wooden board and breathed a long sigh of relief.
"Why did the benefactor say this, if the sea monster didn't run away just now, I'm afraid it would be really in trouble, right?" Saya asked puzzled.
"Shasha, you're not a mage, so you don't know much, don't look at the corrosion technique I just sent out is a great threat to the sea monster, but in fact, the flight speed is very slow, it is easy to dodge, not to mention anything else, just this ship full of broken wood is ready-made material. Fortunately, the big man was tall, but his head was not good, and he was scared, so he ran away. Lena had already taken off her cold "disguise" and explained to Saya with a grin.
Leach didn't bother to complain about Lina's unauthorized nickname, but smiled bitterly: "That's it, if the sea monster is a little smarter, I'm afraid the three of us won't be so easy, even if we can successfully repel it in the end, this pirate ship will definitely be smashed to pieces, how can we return to the island then?"
Saya nodded, signaling that she knew, but there was no fear on her face. However, in Leach's opinion, I am afraid that she can't put on any other expression except for a straight face. Just thinking about it, of course.
After a short break, Leach finally remembered the bunch of pirates who had been tied up. Picking up the planks that had been piled up at the bottom of the ship, Leach was surprised to find that the pirates were not usually lucky, except for three or four who had some bloody holes in their bodies that had been pierced by broken planks, and the others were just disgraced.
Although it was not completely destroyed, the pirate ship could no longer run normally, and fortunately, the pirates were very well prepared, and an emergency life-saving wooden boat was hung on each side of the rear wing of the hull, so that the three of them did not have to worry about how to return to the island.
Throwing the pirates tied into zongzi one by one to the ship, Leach was about to beckon the two girls to get on the boat and leave together, but Lena looked at the sea monster's beheaded tentacles with some reluctance and said: "Young master, let's bring this and octopus whiskers too, such a big one must be able to make a lot of delicious food, no matter how wasteful it is to put it there!"
"You don't come, this ship is so big, do you think it can fit it?" said Leach without hesitation. God knows if the sea monster's flesh can be eaten? Don't look at it looks a bit like an octopus, but the dark green blood and the stinking smell really make Leach dare not risk his own life to try whether its meat is as edible as an octopus.
"It's okay, isn't there another ship over there, you can use that one to load!" Lena was obviously not giving up.
"If you want to get it yourself, I won't do it anyway, it's not early, have you forgotten that there are still treasures on the island?
Speaking of the treasure that had not yet arrived, Lena finally stopped insisting, boarded the boat as fast as she could, urged Leach to hurry up, and by the way, she glanced at the expressionless Saya with a wary face, and then glanced at Leach with disgust, as if she was blaming him for why he mentioned the treasure in front of outsiders.
Although Saya is always expressionless, her mind is exquisite, and the little Jiujiu of the two did not escape her eyes at all, and said softly: "Don't worry about the benefactor, I was fortunate to be rescued by the two before, and all the proceeds of this mission will not be taken at all, please rest assured!"
"Really, Sasha, you're such a nice person!" Hearing this, Lena's hostility disappeared in an instant, and she smiled at Saya again.
Lena's behavior makes Leach's face hot, it's really embarrassing, even if you think so in your heart, don't act so obviously, are you afraid that others won't know that you're a money junkie?
......
The return journey was peaceful, because Saya had paid attention to which direction the island was on the deck before, so the three of them returned to the island without taking the wrong path.
After retrieving the lost property and returning to Ambrera with the captive, everything went smoothly after that, and there were no special situations like the sea monsters.
After returning to Ambrera City, Saya did not leave immediately, but volunteered to help Leach and the others escort the pirates in a row to Lilier's branch.
"Oh, Hoffman, you're very efficient, you've completed the task so quickly!" Lilier looked a little excited, probably because of the high efficiency of the two of them, and the winning rate of the bet was greatly improved.
Soon, the client also arrived here, mung bean small eyes and big teeth, short and fat pockmarked face, the client's appearance is indeed as Liliye "accidentally" revealed, a little obscene.
However, although he didn't look very good for the audience, in the end, he didn't break his promise and got fat, and after taking the trouble to count his belongings several times, he finally handed over a black feather of unknown material to Leach with a painful face, and under the threat of the almost blackened Lena.
According to the client's own words, this is a treasure that he finally got after traveling south and north, and it is his most precious treasure, although the specific effect has not yet been figured out, but it is certainly invaluable.
Leach carefully examined the black feather on his hand and found that in addition to the unknown material, there would be an inexplicable cold feeling after holding it in his hand for a long time, but except for the above two points, there was nothing special about the others.
Despite his disapproval, Leach handed the black feather to her for careful care under the gaze of Lena who had picked up the treasure.
"Sasha, do you want to join our Hoffman adventure group, the benefits are very good, in addition to a Bailey's salary every day, there is also food and accommodation!" After carefully putting away the black feather, Lena looked at Saya who had not left yet.
Speechlessly, he slapped his forehead, and Leach couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into: "Please, you can say it with a Bailey every day, and you have an expression that you have earned, and the ghost will promise you!
Saya's reaction next directly made Leach spit out a mouthful of old blood, and she agreed without hesitation!
