Chapter 329: Erosion

It must have rained last night, otherwise the sailors in the harbor wouldn't have fought each other over some of the wet cargo piled up in the open storage point. Each ship has its own rules www.biquge.info the sailors, and the sailors have many reasons to blame each other. Accidents are always happening, although Maffeo is somewhat reassured that Adrian's crew did not join in the brawl at the port.

In the early morning mist, Maffeo boarded the Black Shark, and she seemed peaceful, with almost all of the crew sleeping in the cabin room on the morning when they were not out at sea. The only lone figure on deck was Ludwig, who was wiping his best companion, the rudder.

"Good morning, Ludwig. Maffeo greeted him.

"Good morning, Maffeo. Ludwig wasn't surprised, in fact he had no reason to be surprised.

"Are the other guys still sleeping?"

"Except for First Officer Sebastian, yes, even our lovely captain is snoozing and sleeping. Ludwig laughed.

"yes? I wanted to come and see you, you have to know that I know two groups of guys. In fact, I still think you're the one I'm more familiar with. After all, it's been two years since I left them, and everyone is not what I think they are. Maffeo sat on the side of the ship, his feet dangling, staring at the horizon in the distance.

Ludwig put down what he was doing and walked over to Maffeo's side. "Are you anxious?"

"There was a little bit, but every time the strangeness in my heart rose to a critical point, they would do something that felt incredibly familiar to me. Maffeo smiled wryly. "However, I'll get used to it. ”

Sebastian walked out of the cabin in a rage, a bottle of jam in his hand. He simply said hello to Ludwig and Maffeo, then walked to the side of the boat with the jar of jam and threw the whole jar into the sea. His actions didn't seem to make any sense, so Maffeo asked. "What's wrong, Sebastian?"

"It's just expired, and I'm fed up with some black-hearted merchants everywhere!" Sebastian leaned against the side of the ship and lit a cigarette.

Maffeo couldn't help but laugh, he felt the same way as Sebastian about it. Whether it's inflating the price of a commodity, mixing sawdust in bread, or a profiteer who trumpets a worthless piece of rag as a work of art, he's been through a lot of deception.

As Sebastian tried to calm the anger in his heart, his tone softened slightly. "I can't get rid of these guys anyway, and I wish they were going to hell. That's right, they will definitely go to hell. ”

"Don't be angry, Sebastian, have you had anything interesting in the past two days?" said Maffeo, trying to change the subject.

His diversionary work really worked, as something had happened in the past two days that had made Adrian and Sebastian feel concerned. Ever since they came here, they have been inquiring about the sea forces in the vicinity. Privateers and Imperial navies were no doubt frequented by the Privateers, so they could easily find out about any unusual ships that appeared.

Aside from the Sage's Call, perhaps the only ship in the vicinity that doesn't seem so normal is a Ruava one. In fact, when Sebastian saw the ship moored in the corner corresponding to the Sage's Call, he almost assumed it was the Ruava.

"In this case, I have every reason to believe that it is the Ruawa. ”

"If that's the case, then the hellish madmen are here again. Damn, they kidnapped Isabella, but they showed up here, but there was no sign of the Imperial Navy nearby, which seemed very abnormal. Maffeo threw the pebbles he had picked up from the beach into the sea, piece by piece.

"Are you sure, Maffeo?" The only thing Sebastian had heard about the Oracle Legion was that they had kidnapped the Ruava in Orcent, but he hadn't heard of the kidnapping of Isabella, the third princess of the Empire.

Maffeo nodded, and then told Sebastian everything about the Oracle Legion during his exploration of Sky City. For Sebastian, who knew the Imperial Navy better, he thought there had been a turning point in the matter. He is well aware of the power of the Imperial Navy, but since they do not appear here, then there are only two possibilities.

First, the Legion of the Sacred Oracle let Isabella go, thus freeing herself from being pursued all the time. Second, what methods did they use to hide their whereabouts? But when you think about it, both Sebastian and Maffeo almost all agree that the second option is unlikely.

"Well, at least I think it's better for them to let Isabella go. ”

"Why do you say that?"

"At least that won't bring war here. Maffeo spread his hands.

If so, then you are indeed right, the difference between us and them is only in the position. ”

Neither Adrian nor Sebastian wanted to get involved in any more disputes, so they had no intention of approaching the Sage's Horn or the Legion of the Oracle. But after coming here, it was difficult for them not to learn about the existence of the revolutionary army by accident through some means. In fact, after the incident with Aucente, their attitude towards these guys has shifted from neutrality to suspicion.

After spending the whole morning aboard the Black Shark, Maffeo thought it was time for him to go to Marcos. He walked into the alley and didn't look back. He walked, not paying attention to the Warhammer that was still graffiti, and the guy was still enjoying it. Maffeo seemed to feel that perhaps the only thing in him that would not disappear was energy, and he was always the most energetic of all. Maffeo really didn't know how he did it, because he didn't look like any different from the others except for his strange clothes.

He stops and opens the door to the warehouse, only to find Marcos teasing his dog. Somewhat dissatisfied, he walked up and picked up Walter, who had always disliked Marcos. "Do you want to go there?"

"Please, Maffeo, do you really want to go there?" Marcos tried to reach out and pick Walter back, but Walter waved his claws in resistance before Maffeo could make a move.

"You've never procrastinated, and now, you're starting to procrastinate. ”

"If you want to know the real reason, I can tell you. Marcos stopped trying to hug Walter in a bored manner, but leaned back in his chair and stared at Maffeo with blank eyes.

"Tell me. ”

Marcos pointed to his left arm, "I've been tired most of the time since I was completely freed from the spirits. That tiredness isn't caused by overwork, it's that these guys seem to be born with the ability to drain people's energy. I don't know, I sometimes think that every person who appears in front of me is non-existent. But sometimes, I think the person in front of me is too real. ”

"Damn, man, are you okay?" asked Maffeo with concern, having for a moment thought that Marcos was suffering from schizophrenia.

"I'm fine, it's just that I can't do exactly what I'm being told right now, and I'm going to get in the way a little bit. ”

"So, when this is over, I think we should all go to the GSD master. ”

"Agreed, so, let's go. ”
