CHAPTER XXXIX

It was late at night, and there was a sultry smell in the closed cabin, and even the wet sea breeze blowing in through the windows could not blow away the air that was full of the smell of a man's body. [Ran^Text^Library] []

Agatha lay on her side on the bed, holding a perfumed handkerchief in one hand, covering her nose and frowning slightly.

The smell in the cabin made her toss and turn, and the ship was undulating and bumpy in the sea along the way, which made her vomit I don't know how many times, and a beautiful woman who originally looked quite plump in cheeks was also tortured to lose weight.

"Hahaha......" A few rooms away, the laughter of the sailors was still clearly heard, and it was particularly harsh and noisy in this silent night.

Agatha's brows furrowed, and she leaned out from the edge of the bed, and in front of a wooden barrel beside the bed, she retched twice with her hand on her plump, snow-white chest, but did not vomit anything.

She took a deep breath, a little angry, and a little helpless to turn her head and look in the direction where the voice was coming from.

Wouldn't this group of savages, who were covered in the smell of fish, have a moment to be quiet?

Agatha couldn't help herself, got up from her bed, put on her shoes, and prepared to see what the wild men were doing. In the past ten days, she has endured and adhered to aristocratic etiquette, and she has stayed at home when she enters the door.

But today, she really couldn't help it.

Agatha had just opened the door when she saw Vera standing in the door of her room, motionless like a statue, and startled her.

"Ah, Lord Vera?" Agatha covered her mouth and looked at Vera with wide eyes, "Why are you here?"

Vera snapped and saluted: "As Miss Agatha's protector, of course I should do my duty here!"

Agatha stared intently at the man standing like a javelin in front of her, and asked with some surprise, "You've been here all these days?"

Vera glanced at her quickly out of the corner of her eye, as if to observe her expression: "Yes, Miss Agatha, this ship is full of lowly and dirty sailors, it is my duty to protect you from their harassment!"

Agatha nodded, as the daughter of the president of the Chamber of Commerce, of course she had seen all kinds of ways to show her favor, but it was the first time she had encountered something like this that stood guard at her door for ten days in a row.

Agatha smiled at Vera, a look of gratitude and emotion in her expression.

Vera saw it in her eyes, and suddenly the 36,000 pores on her body were extremely comfortable, and the whole person was light, and the hardships of guarding Agatha's door these days were finally not in vain.

Vera smiled, "Miss Agatha, where are you going?"

Agatha smiled, glanced at Vera, and saw that he was a little bit inseparable, and originally wanted to ask the captain to make those sailors quiet, but now looking at Vera's posture, Agatha was afraid that he would make trouble after he followed.

If she had changed her usual life, who would she have been afraid of?

But at the moment, it is extraordinary, one more thing is better than one less thing.

According to the secret news from within her family, the internal undercurrent of the Pound Empire is turbulent, Kriza XVI fell ill again, the contradiction between the prince Kirk and the third prince and the eighth prince has reached the limit, and the battle for the throne is about to break out. The eyes of the whole world are on this vast empire, and almost all the forces are focused on the imperial capital of Garcia.

Especially two months later, Prince Kirk will marry the first beauty of the Noah continent, Angel, the princess of the Falco Empire, in the imperial capital, and it is rumored that Kriza XVI will abdicate to Prince Kirk on this day.

Kirk and the Third and Eighth Princes have been at odds since childhood, and when he ascends the throne, he will definitely attack his two brothers.

However, the three princes, Liman and Dardanelle, who hold heavy troops and real power, are not people who sit idly by, and the signs of a coup d'état are clearly visible.

Since ancient times, around the maelstrom of power, the more chaotic it is, the more profitable it is.

The various families on the land of the Pound Continent were nervously paying attention to the terrible wrestling that was going on on the ancient and huge soil of the Pound Empire, and at the same time they were quickly calculating the victory or defeat of the two sides, and then deciding which side they would bet on.

In this situation, if the patriarchs or presidents of various family chambers of commerce blatantly poured into the imperial capital, they would easily be plotted and wiped out.

Therefore, it has become the best choice to send the heirs of the family or chamber of commerce who have received various trainings for a long time to the imperial capital.

Agatha, as the daughter of the president of the Clumbel Chamber of Commerce, secretly went to the imperial capital of the Pound Empire on behalf of her family, naturally she didn't want any problems on the way, she took her eyes back from Vera's face, thought about it and said: "It's nothing, it's boring, I'll walk around......"

Agatha spoke, and began to walk out along the narrow aisle of the cabin, because the ship was walking on the sea, and the wind was quite strong, Agatha walked through the cabin with one foot high and one foot low, and her body stumbled, she had grown up on land since she was a child, and had never been to sea, let alone suffered this kind of suffering, and at this time she only took two steps and felt like she was in the clouds, and her legs were weak, and she was miserable.

Vera looked at her pale face carefully, "Miss Agatha, shall we go back?"

Although Agatha looks easy-going and beautiful on the outside, she is an extremely determined and strong woman on the inside, she gritted her teeth, and a smile appeared on her pale face: "No, I'll just go to the deck and breathe." ”

Seeing her stubborn persistence, a hint of admiration flashed in Vera's eyes, so she didn't say anything, just gently put her hand on Agatha's arm, and said softly, "Then I'll help you?"

Agatha's arm, like a mutton fat, had just been touched, and the sailor's room not far away suddenly burst into an explosion of laughter, and a boom came out of it.

Agatha felt that she couldn't tell whether she was nervous at Vera's hand or startled by the hilarious sound coming from the sailor's room next to her, and she shook all over, her feet went limp, and she almost fell.

Vera hurriedly held her up, turned her head to look at the sailor's room, and glared angrily: "This group of lowly sailors, they really don't know whether they are alive or dead, and they dare to scare Miss Agatha!"

He saw that there was no trace of blood on Agatha's already pale cheeks, and he wanted to please this beautiful woman, and he wanted to show his face in front of her, Vera smiled a little murderously: "Miss Agatha, I'll teach them a lesson for you!"

"Why......" Agatha saw Vera let go of him, and walked towards the sailor's room with a sinister smile, and as soon as she shouted, she saw Vera raise her leg and kick the door of the sailor's room, and it was too late to stop it.

Agatha looked at Vera's back and frowned slightly: "How did Uncle Tareras find such a person to escort me to Garcia?"

Born in poverty, but with great contempt and contempt for poor people of the same origin as him, he seemed to be reserved and expensive in front of me, but he was extremely inferior, for fear that I would confuse him with a commoner.

The most terrible thing is that this person knows that he is ambitious, so attentive to me, what he is trying to see, even a blind man can see clearly, and if I didn't have the status and identity behind me, would he still be so affectionate to me?

Agatha sighed, this Vera, when she first saw him, she still had a feeling of brightness in her eyes, but after more than ten days of getting along, she was extremely cold.

But even if Agatha saw through this man, she still had to smile at each other, because she still needed this man's protection when she went to the imperial capital.

Thinking of this, Agatha somehow suddenly thought of the man of unknown origin she had seen on the boat, with those sharp and bright eyes, and the sturdy and burly figure, like a bolt of lightning, flying in front of her eyes.

What kind of man is this?

What kind of burning and rebellious soul is wrapped under the calm exterior?

Agatha was suddenly distracted, but she quickly reacted.

Hey, they're not going to fight, are they?

But don't miss a big deal!

Thinking of this, Agatha hurried and hurried a few steps.

......

Tang Jie eats and lives with these sailors on the "Conch" these days, and he is deeply loved by the sailors, and even the captain Baker is a little jealous, and his life is very comfortable and happy.

Almost every night, Tang Jie would take Link to fight with these sailors for fun, under the bombardment of the sailors in turn, at first Tang Jie and Link were drunk unconscious every day, but as the number of days of sailing gradually increased, Tang Jie's alcohol consumption also increased by leaps and bounds, and gradually he was able to fight back under the repeated attacks of everyone, and it was his turn to start pouring others.

The loud laughter just now was the huge laughter of the sailors who poured the tenth car ** battle to the ground.

If Old Barr was still alive, he would definitely sigh and say when he saw the current Tang Jie: This is an outstanding leader, as long as there is a place where he is, everyone's eyes will always have only one focus, and his strong and sharp gaze can make people easily lower their heads and dare not look at him.

Tang Jie held a huge wooden wine glass in his hand, looking at the sailor who was as strong as a bear on the ground, foaming at the mouth, he tilted his head and laughed: "Poured, poured! Who is next?"

Link on the side raised his head, looking at his captain with a flushed face, his eyes adored to the extreme, in his eyes, Tang Jie was invincible, no one could defeat him, even if he drank.

The sailors around laughed, they had long regarded this man as one of their own, and their previous fears had long since vanished, replaced by heartfelt love and respect.

One of the sailors drank down, and immediately another sailor pulled his sleeves, patted the shaggy chest hair on his chest, and said, "I'm coming!"

The sailors next to him coaxed: "Are you okay? Don't lose our face for a while!"

Tang Jie looked at them with a smile, he unconsciously remembered Nia, William and Bill, and the sailor's room was as lively as a pot of boiling porridge.

Suddenly, with a bang, the door to the sailor's room was kicked open, and the whole door knocked the approaching sailor to the ground like a flying stone.

The huge sailor's room suddenly fell silent, and all eyes unconsciously looked towards the door.

Vera stood in the doorway with a cold face, sneering all over her face.

The surroundings were extremely quiet, and even the sound of the lights and the sea could be heard clearly.

The sailors, who were still laughing loudly just now, put down their wine glasses one by one, and the expressions on their faces gradually froze, and gradually became angry.

A sailor walked up, picked up the sailor who had been knocked unconscious by the wooden door, glared at him, and said, "Lord Vera, what are you doing here?"

Vera smiled coldly, "What for?" He lifted his leg and kicked the sailor out of the air, slamming it against the wall, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

There was a roar among the sailors.

"I want to ask what you guys were doing?" Vera sneered, "You third-class pariahs, don't you know that there are distinguished guests on board? What are you trying to do with such a noise? Can you take responsibility for the noise you made to Lord Agatha?"

The gap between the commoners and the nobility has been like an invisible chasm since ancient times, dividing people from birth.

A nobleman like Agatha is naturally high and expensive in the eyes of these sailors, and they usually give them a thousand dares, and they don't dare to offend, and Vera is a naval officer of Sisis, and if she wants to rectify these sailors, it is really no different from pinching a few bed bugs to death.

But even the natives made of mud have a fiery nature, not to mention these sailors who endure the wind and the test of life and death at sea on weekdays?

One by one, the sailors glared at Vera and gathered around.

Vera didn't expect these sailors to dare to fight against him, he was a little surprised, and sneered: "What do you want to do? Do dozens of sheep want to kill a tiger?"

After speaking, he glanced around the room with disdain, and his whole body burst out with fighting energy and demonic energy at the same time, his body flowed with golden fighting energy and blue magic like waves, and his handsome face looked mighty and terrifying in this golden and blue qilang.

The sailors were suddenly frightened and took a few steps back, and their angry and impulsive heads calmed down suddenly: this was a powerful third-level magic swordsman, and he could level all the sailors here with one hand.

Under Vera's proud gaze, no one dared to take another step.

Vera pursed the corners of her lips, his gaze was as sharp as a sword, and whoever looked at him couldn't help but bow her head and didn't dare to look at him.

But when his gaze conquered all the sailors here, and came to a man, he suddenly found that there was a man in the flock who dared to look him face to face.

The man had one foot on a wooden bench and one arm propped up on his leg, a faint smile on his face, and his eyes stared at him without flinching.

It was a gaze full of contempt and mockery, and it made Vera feel as if she was being harshly reprimanded by her superiors.

In this case, when encountering a provocation, the vast majority of men often have only one reaction, that is, to catch up and fight!

It is a belligerent instinct peculiar to male animals.
