Chapter 499: The thief is difficult to prevent

"What?" Lukka stomped his right foot on the deck, more force than Thea used.

"If you don't believe it, go see for yourself, the box in the bilge is empty. Thea pouted.

The corners of Luca's mouth twitched, and he didn't bother to talk to Theado, and as soon as he turned his head and rushed into the ship's water ladder, he came to the door of the safe cabin where his valuables were kept.

The seal on the door was still there, and he breathed a sigh of relief. This seal, even if other mages in the wizarding world are there, it will take a lot of trouble to open, and Phil is just an alchemist, so there is nothing he can do about this seal.

Could it be that Thea is lying? Lukka shook his head, thinking he was unlikely. Yinlong has a bad temper and doesn't know much about human feelings, but she doesn't have the concept of lying in her head, and everything is straightforward.

"He didn't take the silver from this door. Thea said behind him.

"The walls won't do either! I've set up circles on the walls and ceiling!" Lukka said, channeling a small stream of mana with his hand and beginning to break the seal on the door.

Thea walked over, stood next to him, and shook her head, "You didn't take care of the floor. ”

Lukka was stunned for a moment, and then retorted: "This is the bottom of the ship, under the floor is the bottom of the ship, if you open the floor, the sea water will rush in, this cabin is not a watertight cabin, make a big hole underneath, the ship will sink!"

"That's what Phil did, anyway. Thea looked left and right, found a barrel of the right height by the wall, and sat down with her hands propped up, her feet dangling in the air.

"Surely Daniel will know that he will be spared by opening a hole in the ship?" Lukka asked again.

"yes, who else but the big guy can help him make a big hole in the bottom of the boat?" said Thea.

There was a "buzzing" of magic on the door of the safe, and Lukka successfully opened the seal, and he put the light spell in his right hand and hurried inside.

"It's really gone!" he yelled at the empty box, and then saw the big hole in the floor.

Contrary to what had been expected, the sea water at the bottom of the boat did not rise up, but rippled slightly below the hole.

Lukka stepped closer and crouched down to see that the hole was sealed with a transparent gel that blocked the seawater. He touched the gel with his hand, and it was like jelly, with some elasticity.

"Don't poke it. Thea followed up and said, "Phil said this thing wasn't very sturdy. ”

"You know he's doing this if it's not strong?" Lukka was even angrier now, not only because of the loss of the silver coin, but also because a large hole had been inexplicably broken in the bottom of the ship.

"Don't ask me, I didn't do it!" Thea said, "Daniel said he'll fix it in the next two days, but he has to let you open the sealed hatch before he can bring the materials in." ”

"Isn't he able to swim in the sea, and he made such a hole, why didn't he mend it from the sea?" Lukka asked.

"I've said it all, don't ask me, ask Daniel yourself. Thea pouted.

"Ask me what?" Daniel's voice came from the end of the hallway, getting closer.

He floated into the door of the safe, looked at Lukka inside, and said with a smile, "Yo, captain, you're up." I'm here to open the door to you, Phil's gel won't last a few days, and this hole must be filled quickly, otherwise the ship will sink to the bottom. ”

"Sink it, sink it, you still care about this?" Lukka said in a visibly angry voice.

"I'm fine, I can live well under the sea," Daniel didn't hear his retort at all, "The others must be fine, don't you know how to bubble up?" but the supplies on our ship are all gone, and the things that have been soaked in the sea must be salty and inedible." ”

"Don't talk about this, I don't plan to dive!" Luca's face turned red, "You have the ability to dismantle the ship from underwater, can't you make up the hole from underwater?"

"Well, because the materials we use to repair the boat are all wood," said Daniel, "and you know, the sea is so dense that I have to dive it myself, and the wood can't sink at all." ”

"That's enough, you can make it up as you like, I'll go talk to Phil!" Lukka turned and left.

Daniel looked at his back, scratched his head, and asked Thea, "Why is the captain's face so red?

"Hmph! figure it out for yourself. Thea jumped out of the box and ran away with Luca.

When Luca finds him, Phil is still busy at the base of the tower.

"Yes, this is the position, this conduit is five meters down," he commanded the goblin Gavin, "Okay, okay, you can deliver the medicine, you can look at it yourself, twenty liters of medicine, no more, no less, I'll go to the middle tree trunk to see." ”

Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of an angry Luca, and Thea, who had obviously just succeeded in suing, and turned around and ran to the vine that led to the upper floor. Phil probably thought that the mage captain would definitely not climb the vine by himself anyway, and by the time he took the lifting basket to the upper floor, he would have no idea where to hide.

Lukka made a few volleys of his right hand, casting two mage hands in succession, one slamming at Phil's head, and the other grabbing his collar and dragging him back.

Phil staggered, then turned around and greeted Luca, "Yo, Captain, you're here?"

"Don't come and go! Dolan hasn't been on the ship for long, you've all been brought like this by him!" Luka's face had turned from red to iron.

"Isn't it okay if I'm not going to do it?" Phil showed a standard toothy smile, "Look, it's a nice day." ”

"Where's my silver coin?" Lukka got straight to the point.

"Here it is. Phil gestured to a few clay pots that were more than a man tall next to him.

"Come back. Lukka ordered.

"It's not going to be easy," Phil scratched his nose, "the reaction of making potions is irreversible, and it would cost more to extract the silver from it than the silver coins themselves." ”

"I don't care about that," Lukka asked, turning to Thea, "how many silver coins did he use?"

"By weight, it's 299,900. Thea replied, "It's less than a fraction of what you owe me." ”

"You see, it's not too much. Phil still wanted to quibble.

"However, in terms of commemorativeness, the value of these silver coins is immeasurable. Thea continued, "This is a wrong coin brought back from the ground, and I don't think the goblins will make such a wrong coin in the future." ”

"Huh, is it?" said Gavin.

"It's none of your business," Phil pushed him aside, "if you want to talk about the commemorative significance, you see, I really kept a piece, you gave it to me that day, or give it to you?"
