Luca's previous experience of going back to Sailing was actually not very pleasant. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Even if you don't take into account the expensive berthing fees here, you can spend a lot more money just to eat and drink than you would elsewhere. Not to mention, the business hall of Sunset Express is the only place in this archipelago that gives him a cold reception.

"I'm going to deal with Sunset Express again, and I don't know how much more it will take this time. He muttered and stepped off the boat.

This time, there were only six people even himself, and Kate had been away from Tata Island for more than a month, and she had accumulated a mountain of pending papers, which obviously Gray couldn't make his own decisions, and Lukka left her on the island.

The flames of war in the northern sea did not burn here, and Huifan Harbor was still in its original leisurely and expensive state. But today, there were already people waiting on the docks for Luka's arrival.

"Captain Lester, Sunset Express please. The person who greeted him was not wearing the uniform of Sunset Express, but only pinned a brooch to the placket in the shape of a winged envelope, which was the mark of Sunset Express.

Lukka followed him into Sunset Express' headquarters, but this time instead of going down the hall, he entered through a small door next to him, and then all the way back into a sunlit courtyard.

The courtyard is not very large, with a few tall trees rising to the sky, and even though spring has not yet arrived, their golden foliage is still thick, blocking the sky directly above and leaking only dappled sunlight.

From time to time, a few birdsongs can be heard from the trees, and a delicate fountain is dotted in the middle, and several stone benches are placed around the spray paint. A few squirrels watched curiously from the trees for strange visitors, and not far away a deer looked down in the grass to find something.

"Isn't this place affected by the season?" Lukka asked, surprised.

The man who brought him in did not answer, but only bowed, and turned to leave.

"It looks like we're going to have to wait again, at least there's no need to queue up here. Lukka looked up at the golden leaves above his head, and it seemed that among those leaves, there were some bright red fruits hidden.

"And there's a seat!" Ollie looked at the stone bench next to her, which had neither fallen leaves nor dust.

Nora also chose a stool to sit down, and asked with some concern, "Captain, you said that they came to you and didn't show up, would you be uneasy?"

Thea stood under the tree, her eyes staring at the golden leaf tree hole: "Their report, but they praised the captain as a savior, I don't look like they want to fight with us." ”

"It's not certain, there are many people who say one thing and actually do another, not to mention that it's still written, and I can't believe it. Daniel punched the tree, and the trunk didn't move.

"It's all here anyway, just wait and see. Lukka said lightly, but the amethyst staff in his hand never let go.

"Shut up," Thea finally couldn't help it, "can you fly up and help me pick a few leaves?"

The parrot snorted on Luka's shoulder: "Why don't you fly yourself?"

A light laugh rang out in the courtyard, a breeze blew, and two golden leaves fluttered and fell, just in Thea's hand.

"It's pure gold!" she said, her eyes wide.

"Don't just stare at the gold, who was laughing just now?" Shut up and look around vigilantly, but there was no figure in sight.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to scare you. A familiar voice came from the southeast corner of the courtyard, and Lukka would never forget that it was the sound of the golden light on the floating island that day.

The stag, which had been looking down at the grass, raised its head and slowly walked from the shadows to the vicinity of Luka, facing them with its left side of its body.

It opened its mouth, and the voice came out of its throat: "I wasn't in a good state just now, but now it's okay." ”

"Who are you? you want to see me?" asked Luca.

"Here, they call me the General Courier, and for many years I have been running the Sunset Express. "The stag's huge horns are like forked branches, golden in the sun.

"How do I feel you're not done yet?" Lukka asked, looking at it in the eye that turned to his side.

The stag lowered his head and shaved twice on the grass with his hooves, shaking his body for a moment before continuing: "In the ears of many more people, my name is Covey. ”

Then, it stopped and waited for Luca's reaction.

Lukka scratched his head and asked, "Is this name special?"

"The god of trade and wealth is called by that name. Ollie whispered in his ear.

"Oh, then I see, it's similar to Crete, right? You people here like to name themselves gods, or some celebrity, right? The first person to domesticate you must have been!" Lukka looked at him with a sudden realization.

Ollie was completely defeated by his sluggishness, and had to explain in detail again: "The image of the god of trade and wealth is a golden stag!"

"What? You mean it's a god, but it's a deer, it's an animal!" shut up and yelled.

"Aren't you a parrot too?" Thea retorted.

"Be quiet!" Daniel's face darkened.

"It's just, don't make any noise. Lukka turned to Covey and said, "Are you the god they say you are?"

The stag nodded.

"But you're not golden either!" Lukka once again perfectly avoided all the points and instead struggled with the color.

"Maybe that's why I'm always in the sun when people see me. Or is it because I symbolize wealth?" Covey replied, not quite sure.

"So, Sunset Express is the office of the god of trade and wealth in this sea? Luca sighed.

Daniel suddenly stepped forward, stood beside Luca, and asked solemnly, "When did you start controlling this Sunset Express?"

Covey replied calmly, "From the very beginning. Long before your kingdom fell, and long before your ancestor Russell Morgan made the first chart. I've been observing since you humans first went out to sea in a small wooden boat. When you first needed to send a letter home, I set up this courier organization. ”

"So, Sunset Express will always have all kinds of accurate information, not only because you handle almost all the letters, but also because you are a god?" Crete, who usually doesn't talk much, couldn't help but ask.

The stag squinted at him, "Yes, I've been watching everything that happens in this area, and that's been the case from the very beginning. ”

"You were there on the night my kingdom fell, weren't you?" Daniel's eyes were dripping blood.

"You're an accomplice of the ocean slut, aren't you?" he stepped forward.
