Chapter 16: Goodbye, Chubby!
"Fire Elf, what's that?" Lukka and Ollie asked in unison. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Crete pushed down his glasses: "Haven't you all seen the wood elves?"
"The kind of freak club with their hands blooming?" Lukka was impressed.
He looked over to the girl in the box, who raised her hand and ruffled her hair, revealing her thin ears, which also danced with a sparkle of fire.
"It is said that the prices of various elves in the underground slave trade are quite high, and ordinary wood elves can be sold for more than 10,000 silver coins. Crete continued, "As for the fire spirits, the Sunset Islands haven't been seen in decades. ”
"Don't sell me to pirates!" the girl in the box burst into tears, tears evaporating into a puff of water before they could slip down her face.
Lukka said to the girl from afar: "We don't do this kind of business, don't worry." ”
He thought for a moment and asked again, "If you were allowed to come out, would you burn the whole boat?"
"Don't let her go! she might get revenge on us humans!" said a merchant sailor, panicked.
Crete took out another cigar and put it in his mouth, but did not light it, and stared at the girl for a long time.
"She won't retaliate. Crete said calmly.
"Then I'm relieved. Lukka smiled and nodded, turning to the girl in the box, "What's your name?"
"If she could control it, would she still have no clothes to wear?" muttered Nick the Fat Man.
The girl hesitated for a moment, then replied, "My name is Nora Finn, and I will not harm you." ”
"You can't trust her!" cried the merchant sailor again.
Lukka shook his head: "No, I didn't believe her. I believe in Crete. ”
The fire spirit in the box looked at the flames on his arm, looked down at the array, and suddenly looked up and said, "Do you have any jewelry?"
Luca didn't understand, and he wanted jewelry before he got out of trouble?
The girl added, "Any jewelry, ruby, sapphire, crystal lapis lazuli, as long as it is big enough." ”
This...... Lukka thought for a moment, then turned back to the rescued merchant crew and asked, "Who has the gem?" ”
Ollie stretched out his hand to hold his forehead, this is too much like a pirate, no, Lukka was originally a pirate, the kind wanted by the whole sea.
An old woman came tremblingly with a necklace in her hand, and a pendant made of burgundy gemstones, the size of a pigeon's egg, was shining.
"Garnet's, it's not too valuable, but it's big enough. The old woman sighed, tears streaming down her wrinkled cheeks, "It was supposed to be a dowry for my daughter, but she no longer needs it." ”
Lukka followed her gaze, and the body of a young girl lay quietly on the deck, before it could be contained.
"Condolences. He whispered, "I'll give you a discount from the loot." ”
The old woman shook her head: "No, you have already avenged her. Thank you. With that, he turned and walked back to the crowd.
Lukka came to the edge of the circle with the necklace in his hand, he faced Nora with a solemn face: "This necklace, I hope it can be used in a valuable place, you better not lie." ”
With that, he raised his hand and threw the necklace over.
Nohan took the necklace with his hand, placed it in front of him and looked at it carefully for a while, then placed it flat in the palm of his right hand, and the flames instantly surrounded the crimson gemstone.
She stretched her right hand forward and the necklace entered the circle.
Suddenly, Lukka saw the circle begin to shrink suddenly, all the flickering mana streams scaled down in their original shapes, and within a few seconds they completely contracted into the range of the red gemstone, and then the circle suddenly solidified, and the whole was set inside the garnet, and only a slight glitter could be seen from the outside.
Nora slung the necklace to her chest and stepped out of the iron box.
The flames still roamed her, but they didn't do any damage to the outside world, and the garnet's pendant shimmered and absorbed all heat.
"Thank you for the circle. She said to the little fat man.
Nick blushed suddenly, twisted the fingers of his hands back and forth, unable to utter a word.
"I say, come with us, the merchant ships seem to be afraid of you. Ollie said, curiously walking up and touching the flame on Nora's arm with her fingers, and then said happily, "It's not hot!"
Nora looked at Lukka with an inquiring gaze.
"Welcome aboard, Nora Finn. Lukka nodded slightly, "We're short of an artilleryman, so it's going to be easy for you to ignite." ”
"Do we have artillery?" Crete asked, Lukka pretending not to hear.
Ollie lures Nora back to the Peregrine Falcon to settle in, and the pirates are driven back to the pirate ship, which has lost power and firepower, and the merchant ship owner climbs out of the bilge to thank him.
After making up for the losses of the merchant ships, there were still some supplies left on the pirate ship, and Lukka naturally smiled unceremoniously, especially the dozens of guns, but the Peregrine Falcon was too small to fit, and in the end it could only take four guns.
Seeing Lukka excitedly running between the two boats, Crete suddenly said, "Have you forgotten something?"
"Forgot something, didn't you?" Lukka made a question-mark face.
"Why did you come to this ship?" asked Crete.
Without waiting for Lukka to answer, he shut up and suddenly flew out of the open door of the bilge, shouting, "Teleport!
"Ah, the portal!" Lukka finally remembered.
"Hey, are you really leaving?" Ollie had somehow returned from the Peregrine Falcon to the merchant ship.
"Go! it's going to be gone!" cried out to shut up.
"Let's go and have a look. Luca said. Everyone walked down the steps to the bilge, and a purple circle of light with a diameter of about one meter was spread flat on the floor, and Xiaopang was already guarding the side.
"Luca, I was about to tell you, this portal is about to collapse!" he said with a crying voice, "Now you can only pass through one person!"
"You go, I'm not going back. Lukka said suddenly, in a small but firm voice.
His memory of that magical plane was only two hours, and there was no reason for him to go back, except for ...... There, the after-effects of blood magic should be easier to heal. But Nick is different, he belongs to the other side of the portal.
"Hurry up, don't wait for the real breakdown. Lukka said as he handed over the Amethyst Staff, which Chubby had left on the deck.
Nick shook his head: "I can't take this away, this door is already too fragile." ”
Lukka smiled, "That's right, this staff belongs to me." And your fireproof cloth? Nora doesn't have enough clothes. ”
Nick gestured to a bundle of cloth beside him, tears rolling in his eyes.
"I can't stand you!" Lukka saw that he was still grinding, and the purple portal was about to be unable to support it, so he simply raised a foot and kicked him directly, "Goodbye-"
As soon as Nick's figure disappeared from the portal, the purple circle of light crackled a few times, and then flashed with a strong electric light. By the time everyone regained their sight, the floor had been restored to its original state, and there was no trace of it anymore.
"Alright, call it a day, let's go back to the Peregrine Falcon. Lukka patted the dust off his body, took his staff and turned to leave.
Shut up and flew over and landed on his shoulder: "Then your blood ......"
It looked back at the crowd of onlookers and said, "What about internal injuries?"
"Isn't there still a source of mana? Let's go, target: the abyss of the shrike bird!"
