Maffeo set out into the jungle on a ghostly path that led to the northern beaches where he could break his leg, and he didn't know exactly why Captain Damon had chosen to land on the island, but the warning bombardment seemed to be a proclaim of his power. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info these guys are like that, it's a symbol for them, but Maffeo doesn't like this symbolic act because it makes him eat a mouthful of dirt.

Kohler was still gathering mercenaries, most of whom were lazy. Staying in this peaceful vineyard for a long time does drain a lot of will to fight, so they are not as sensitive to battle as the mercenaries elsewhere. But they took the money, which satisfied them, so they still tried to follow Kohler's instructions as much as possible. In fact, they had known Kohler for a long time, but they hadn't been in contact with each other for a long time when nothing had happened before. There weren't many people living in the vineyards, so they could always meet each other casually.

Maffeo made his fastest way through the woods in order to return to the path he remembered. So he tripped over a branch almost every moment, cursed, drove the annoying mosquitoes away from his clothes, kicked away the branches that got in the way, and carved a way through the dense vegetation with his great sword.

The men had not moved since the warning shelling, and Maffeo was sure that they were busy landing, and then confirmed the location of the jungle where the locals could get lost. So this caused any unusual sound in the jungle to be perceived by the ghost swordsman's slightly stronger sensory abilities, so he swung his sword and slashed at the bushes below the small steep slope - that was the source of the sound.

The sharp knife blocked Maffeo's slash, and then the latter saw Fett's face with a nonchalant expression, and Walter emerged from the grass not far behind, rushed at Maffeo, and then raised his front paws to try to grab Maffeo's body - it seemed that it did not realize what had just happened, and perhaps it was a blessing for it.

"Damn, you're scared the hell out of me. Maffeo put away his sword and muttered dissatisfiedly.

"Thankfully, you got out of there in time. Fett snorted toward the cliff in the distance.

"How do you know?"

"I was a little concerned, so I just observed. ”

"Those guys are the mud that I'm gnawing on. Maffeo spat in anger, as if the fishy dirt was still clinging to his tongue.

Fett ignored Maffeo's displeasure, "Mr. Kohler is assembling the mercenaries he hired, and to be honest, I don't think fighting them is the right thing to do. ”

"Otherwise, what choice would he have, he knew Captain Damon, and Captain Damon would never give up plundering such a rich island. ”

All they wanted was the so-called "apostolic stuff," as long as they could deceive them. Fett's words made Maffeo think that she had forgotten all the truth he had told him. "Have you forgotten the Black Shark, which set sail for a short time? They wanted something from the Apostles, but they wouldn't give up the wealth that existed in this vineyard just because it was a lie. ”

"Wait, did you find anything in that church?" said Fett, looking at Maffeo with a different expression.

Maffeo wondered, "God, can you see through my heart?" or is it some kind of witchcraft? ”

"When you mentioned that they shelled the church, you showed only anger, not disappointment. And I'm sure you didn't go to that church because you were bored, I know the demons in you. Fett's words undoubtedly struck Maffeo's heart, and she was right, without the slightest mistake, which made him even more convinced that she possessed some kind of sorcery that could see through people's hearts.

Maffeo confessed, "It's a very interesting thing. He pulled out the half-sized copper plate from his pocket. "It's engraved with the Qurad, and the broken gem in the middle seems to contain some kind of energy. ”

"I don't think privateers know how to identify if something is related to the Apostles, do they?" Fett gestured to the copper plate in Maffeo's hand.

Maffeo was stunned for a moment, but he didn't react until Fett explained again with the patience she had rare. She didn't look like the little girl who was only thinking about revenge now, it seemed that Marcos's words really had an effect, she was thinking about the problem, instead of blindly using the familiar killing to solve everything, which was never the most effective solution. "To be honest, I don't know what this thing is for. Maffeo looked at the copper plate in his hand with a complicated expression. "But it silences Kazan, or at least that makes me think it's valuable. ”

"If you're going to cause many people to lose their lives because of your sheer hatred for Kazan, then you can keep this copper plate. ”

"Oh, you know what? You're getting more and more like Marcos now, it's terrible. ”

"Shut up, or I'll never leave you open. Fett quickly pulled out his knife and pressed it against Maffeo's chin, staring at Maffeo with a cold gaze. Only at this point her actions were still impulsive, and Maffeo didn't know what exactly she thought of Marcos now. But he didn't want to annoy a woman who could cut you off at any moment for such a boring reason, so he put away his teasing words.

"So, you want to use this thing as a bargaining chip to keep them from ransacking the island?" Maffeo flipped the copper plate in his hand, which seemed to have been shattered in half, and it was not able to realize its value.

"That's right, and it would make them abandon the pursuit of the Black Shark. Fett hadn't forgotten what Maffeo had said, so she took everything into account.

"Do you think they would really believe it? The copper plate itself looks worthless and broken, and the pirates who value money as their lives really believe it?"

Fett gently poked Maffeo's half-shoulder cloak with his fingers, "You have a trick that you can use to deceive them, the ghost hand is also a mysterious existence to ordinary people, you can completely associate it with the apostles." As for whether Captain Damon will show up or not, that's not something we should consider, after all, we don't have the strength to confront them head-on. ”

"Well, I'll try. But now we have to find them first. Maffeo was not sure what to do, whether to go in search of them or to return to the vineyard to await their arrival. But he found that the latter option was something that more people didn't want to see, so he chose the former.

"I'm going to tell Mr. Kohler not to rush into attacking the privateers. Remember, if the plan doesn't work out, you'd better run quickly. ”

"Listen to you, ma'am. Maffeo pouted.

Walter eventually chose to follow Maffeo, the most important outlier to him, but Maffeo didn't want Walter to take such a big risk with him. But Fett had turned around and walked away, and Walter had no intention of leaving. So as he walked, he told it to be on the lookout in a language that was almost impossible for it to understand. Walter responded to Maffeo with a whimper, as if begging Maffeo not to abandon him, as if he had mistaken his master's intentions, and he had taken it as a precedent for abandonment.

So Maffeo soothed Walter's reassuring tone, which had indeed been a little reprimanding, and now its drooping ears finally rose again, and it wagged its tail in courting Maffeo. "Well, Walter, anyway, I'm glad you're with me. ”

"Wang!"
