Luca, Ollie, and Shut Up were all dumbfounded. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The rotunda in front of it was noisy and lively. The hall is a few hundred square meters in size, and the decoration is not luxurious, with tables, chairs and benches made of logs, and busy hostesses holding wine and food in their hands to and fro.

But it wasn't the hall that surprised them, it was the drinkers in the hall.

The dwarf, orc, Luka's eyes were completely attracted by the graceful elf, and the other threw a seductive smile, and a flower bloomed on the tip of his finger. But in the next moment, a troll's hill-like body fell to the ground with a "clang", completely blocking his vision.

"This one is drunk, throw it in the back pigsty to sober up!" shouted a bloated middle-aged woman, the barkeeper was a real human.

Two strong orcs stepped forward and carried the troll away head by head. But Lukka was disappointed to find that the dancing elves had gone in which direction.

"You can get rid of the disguise. Crete's voice didn't rise and fall, "Don't look for it, the elf can't see you, she just likes to laugh." ”

With that, he walked over to an empty table and sat down, and said to the waitress who hurried by, "Three glasses of ale." ”

Lukka ended his invisibility and sat opposite Crete with Ollie.

Looking around the noisy hall again, Lukka said, "I thought there was no magic in this world. ”

"Not really, there are no other mages here except you. Crete took another bite of the cigar in his mouth.

"What about these?" Lukka asked, gesturing to the dwarf on the table next to him, who was drinking ale.

Without waiting for Crete to answer, Ollie preemptively said, "I thought they were just legends!"

Crete chuckled and said, "Of course they are real, my lady. Most of these races have drifted from the boiling sea to the west. ”

"Boiling sea? That can't be! The sea is all boiling water, and people will be boiled over there!" Ollie said, shaking her head.

"There are more ways than difficulties, my lady. Crete said.

"How do you know?" asked Ollie.

"I see it. Crete didn't seem to want to dwell on the issue any longer, and he turned to Luca and explained: "Although they belong to different races, they are only tall, short, fat and thin from us, some are stronger, some are thin, some are beautiful and some are ugly. None of this has anything to do with magic. ”

Saying that, he sighed: "But they are too strange for humans, and their numbers are very scarce in the Sunset Islands, so many nobles are willing to spend tens of thousands of silver coins to buy these alien races. ”

"You mean, the underground slave trade?" Ollie raised an eyebrow.

"Yes, therefore, this club is only open to members and the location changes frequently. Crete took the ale from the bartender and took a sip.

"You don't have to worry, we're not going to talk about it. Luca said, patting his chest.

"I know, I can see it. Crete said calmly.

"By the way, how did you see through my invisibility?" Lukka asked with a large sip of ale.

"I ...... Just see. Crete replied.

Shut up uncharacteristically from the moment he entered the door, suddenly jumped from Luka's shoulder to the table, and he walked up to Crete with broken steps, stared at his face for a long time, and suddenly said:

"You have the 'Eyes of Truth'!"

Crete looked at each other for a moment, then smiled and nodded, "Not bad." ”

"What is the 'True Eye'?" Lukka asked.

"The 'Eye of Truth' can see through all disguises and see all the truth. Shut up and said, staring at Crete with little eyes unblinking.

"You're exaggerating, I'm just a little better at some things. Crete pushed down his glasses, "And I can't see clearly from a distance, I'm short-sighted." ”

"And what do you want from us?" Lukka asked.

"It's simple, take me out to sea. ”

"Why do you want to go to sea? Do you know where I'm going? Besides, even if I wanted to take you out to sea, I don't have a boat right now. Lukka spread his hands.

"The True Eye has caused me far more trouble than good. "Being restricted from the casinos and stuff like that is a trivial matter, because I've told so much the truth that I've been called a madman in the harbor above." ”

He took off his glasses and wiped them with a dirty cloth: "I think you also need a navigator who can see through storms and reefs......?

He turned to Ollie and said, "This lady has a full five thousand silver coins in her package, and ...... over there," he pointed to the barkeeper, the stocky middle-aged woman, "Miss Maggie has a ship in her hand and is in a hurry." ”

"What about your family and friends?" asked Ollie.

"My family isn't here, and as for friends, do you think I like someone who likes to make friends?" Crete said.

Lukka didn't hesitate for long, and soon he stretched out his right hand: "Welcome to the team, Crete." ”

"However, there is one thing to say in advance. Although he could guess the answer, he still asked: "You know that I am a pirate wanted by the whole sea, right? If you join us, the risks may far outweigh the benefits." ”

Crete put on his glasses, was silent for a while, then raised his head and said solemnly:

"I can see it. ”

Miss Maggie, the tavernkeeper, was a firm man, and when she heard Crete say that someone wanted to buy a ship, she directly marked a fixed price of five thousand silver coins, and no matter how much Ollie and Shut up grinded, they refused to reduce a cent, and finally promised only half a boatload of food and water, plus three months' wages for six sailors.

Her sailboat was stolen by several dwarves when they escaped from pirates, and the dwarves traded it for permanent membership and work in the Freak Club.

Luca and the others followed Miss Maggie out of the back door of the Freak Club, and didn't go far before they encountered a natural underground river.

Miss Maggie pulled a small wooden boat out of the river, led them up and sat down, and threw a wooden oar to Luca and Crete.

"Ollie is stronger than I am!" Lukka muttered, but the oars in his hand did not slow down in the slightest.

The faint light of the lantern on the bow of the boat was reflected on the cave wall by the river, and the unknown fungus faintly fluoresced.

It seemed like a century had passed, and the river became turbulent.

Lukka and Crete did their best to control the boat, and inadvertently, a salty sea breeze blew in.

The sky was full of stars, and the front was impressively bright, and a hidden bay surrounded by mountain peaks on three sides suddenly appeared in front of you.

A dhow is quietly moored in the middle of the bay.

The ship was just over ten meters long and only about three meters wide, with a double combination sail hanging from the only mast, and a streamlined, slender hull shrouded in a silvery glow in the moonlight.

"The sailors and supplies will be ready early tomorrow morning, so you can familiarize yourself with the facilities on board. Miss Maggie said and turned around:

"Welcome aboard the Peregrine Falcon, Captain Lester. ”
