Chapter 299: Eating is the most important thing

With Luca's order, all the partners around him, even Kate, who was helpless, all stood in the direction of the pier trestle, and raised their ...... with solemn faces Fist.

Except for Luka's Amethyst Staff, everyone's weapons, even Crete's telescope, were lost on Sword and Spear Island two months ago, and now only Daniel was holding the saber of Admiral Max that he had picked up, which was not completely barehanded.

Thea and Nora didn't need weapons to attack with lightning and living flames. But the two of them had just lent all their energy to Luca, and it was impossible to recover without a month or two.

Lukka looked around and took two steps forward. Looks like you're still relying on your own magic.

The brig approached the pier, its hull turned slightly, parallel to the trestle. Most of the island's trestle bridges have been destroyed, and only this one is still functional.

The sailors on the ship were not as tense as Luca, but with a familiar smile on their faces, the leader threw down a wrist-thick rope, pointed to the trestle and shouted, "Come and take a hand!"

The other party's dress and accent were obviously not from the Empire's Storm Temple, and although the doubts in Luca's heart had not been resolved, it was not easy to attack immediately.

Even if they are not friends, if they make a rash move at this time, the other party turns around and drives the boat away, and it will be a little difficult for them to leave the island again.

He nodded to the men around him, and Daniel, Mores, and Gray walked up to the trestle, caught the rope thrown from the ship, and tied it tightly to the bollard.

"Hurry up, you guys. The sailor said, setting up the gangplank between the boat and the trestle.

"The boat is here to pick us up?" said Luca's foot stopped in front of the gangplank.

"yes, you're Captain Lester, aren't you? The sailor replied.

"Hire you, is this really a merchant ship?" Lukka squinted for a long time, and the other sailors on the deck on the other side had neither the slightest pirate aura nor any sign of naval training.

"They are indeed merchant sailors, and there is no energy of unknown origin on board. Crete said.

This conclusion did not put Luca at ease, and even if the ship was a genuine merchant ship, it was difficult to tell what the people who hired them had in mind.

"What about your captain?" Lukka didn't look good.

The captain of a merchant ship is also a merchant, and such a man knows more about making money than a pirate, and is generally unassailable in etiquette. But now, only one sailor was sent on the ship to talk to Luca, and even the first and second first mate boatswain did not appear, so it is no wonder that Luca is unhappy.

"Captain is not in a convenient position right now, let me greet you on his behalf. The sailor was still smiling, "After a while, he will definitely come to apologize to you after he has taken care of his own affairs!"

Seeing that Luca was still not convinced, the sailor continued: "The kitchen is already being prepared, lunch will be ready soon!"

Hearing this, no one else reacted, Nora couldn't hold it anymore, if it wasn't for Luca standing in front of her, she would have rushed to the boat in an arrow step.

Anyway, this merchant ship Crete has been identified, even if the people who hired them have bad intentions, it is still easy for their magic to control the dozens of sailors on this ship.

Thinking of this, Luca made a decision: "Let's get on the boat first." ”

Then, at a faster speed than Thea, he rushed straight to the restaurant.

The restaurant location on all the ships is about the same:

The smallest dhow does not have a separate dining room, and when it is time to eat, the table in the captain's room is turned over and used as a dining table. Such a brig is slightly better, but it is also in the same cabin as the conference room.

Of course, most sailors are not qualified to eat at the table, and it is the privilege of a few people, such as the captain and first mate, to be able to eat a serious meal on board.

The same is true of this ship, the dining room is limited, and even if a table is added temporarily, after the twelve of Luca and the others are accommodated, it will be very crowded.

"Captain Lester, can we serve the food while we sail the boat? Send you back a day earlier, and we can get half of the commission." The sailor laughed and discussed.

"Okay, it's important to get the food first!" Lukka didn't embarrass him.

Lunches were delivered one after another, and it seemed that the men who hired the merchant ship were well aware of the composition of Luka's team, and in addition to the normal supply, they also added more than ten times the amount of Nora and Linde to each of them.

"Don't go yet," Lukka said to the sailor with a slutter of an elbow in his mouth, "I have something for you." ”

The sailor stopped by the door and turned around.

Lukka picked up the napkin, wiped the oil off his hands, and stared at him for a moment before saying, "What is the destination of this ship now?"

"Tata Island, but we need to resupply in Layton Harbor first," the sailor looked a little helpless, "With you and these two crew members here, the food reserves are not enough to go directly to Tata Island." ”

Lukka was stunned for a moment, no matter who sent this ship, how could it be necessary to meet him, but this sailor actually sent him directly back to Tata Island, which was somewhat unexpected to him.

"Who hired you?" asked Ollie.

The sailor rubbed his hands together in embarrassment and said nothing.

"The other party will definitely not let them say it, and if they do, maybe they will deduct their commission. Phil said.

"It's okay, you can't say who it is, it's always okay to describe what the other person looks like, right?" Lukka induced a little.

The sailor still shook his head.

"It's useless, if you can ask for your identity, the other party can simply get on the boat and pick us up. "As a spy, Gray is familiar with this kind of thing.

A burst of laughter rang out outside the door, and the sailor, who was overwhelmed by the questioning, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"I'm just going to pick you up on this boat, but I'm just a little late. He waved his hand for the sailor to leave, walked into the dining room, and sat down on a chair at the farthest point.

He wore an unadorned linen shirt of primary color, and his appearance was instantly recognizable, but Lukka immediately recognized the face.

"Black!" he shouted, holding the Amethyst Staff to his chest and knocking over several soup bowls on the table.

"Blake, is that black market guy?" Ollie picked up his knife, the only thing he had in his hand that looked like a weapon.

None of the others had dealt with Blake, but the sale by his colleague Marchette was still vivid, and they all grabbed their knives and forks and rushed to the door.

"Don't get so excited, I'm not good. Blake still had a polite smile on his face.

"What the hell do you want to do? Do you want to sell us again?" Lukka already had a stream of magic in his hand, and even if Blake couldn't see it, the ice crystals that flashed in the air from time to time could tell the story.
