Chapter 14 Choice
"We finally chose this, and now we want to hear your thoughts, after all, we are partners."
Fred finished speaking, and looked at the other four.
Roman was the first to speak: "Captain, we are partners, there is no doubt about it, but I am a believer in the goddess of the night. ”
Before Roman could finish speaking, Tony continued: "Roman, neither the captain nor I have the idea of converting you. In fact, the unity of the Lord's followers is inherently suspicious. We're going to be a team of 'ordinary' looking adventurers, and it's reasonable to have different beliefs, and that doesn't affect our friendship. ”
"Roman is right," Captain Fred continued, "we will only be an 'adventure group' after that, and when we recruit crew and sailors, we will also be in the name of the Seagull Mercenary Group, you can rest assured, we are partners, so I told you that today, and future recruitment, we are just the behavior of the Seagull Mercenary Group." In fact, it was a decision we made after consultation with His Excellency the Bishop. ”
Roman thought for a moment, glanced at Philogan, and saw that he also nodded slightly.
Knowing this, Roman said to Captain Fred and Tony in a deep voice: "We have no problem, Captain, we are originally adventurers on the sea who do not violate our inner principles and morals. It's our luck to be able to venture out with a group of trusted companions. I believe in the Storm Church, and I believe in the Captain. I just don't know how Hannah and Emily decide? ”
Hannah with beautiful blonde hair. Harrison smiled and said to Roman: "Roman, don't worry, I won't leave everyone, I'm not like my adventure ended like this, I finally persuaded the family." As for Emily......"
"I'm fine," said Emily, who had been sitting next to her without speaking. Carter said in a cold tone, "I choose to take risks with everyone. For this "corpse collector" who usually doesn't talk much, this is already a rare expression of emotions. After all, more often than not, she sits quietly and coldly in the corner.
"That's great." Fred looked around and looked a little excited.
"We can still be partners in adventures together, so let's talk about the plans for the future."
"Okay captain." Tony. Austin lightly touched his gold-rimmed glasses, glanced at everyone, and said loudly: "Our plan in the future is to operate mainly in the waters of the Central Sunia Sea and related islands in the name of the 'Seagull Mercenary Group', and may also go west to the edge of the Furious Sea." ”
Roman Void seemed to draw the approximate range of the sea area, and then continued.
"Of course, we need a ship first." Tony smiled and looked around, "And we already have it." ”
We have a ship? How I don't know.
Roman, who was about to ask a question, saw Philogan's eyes light up when he saw Philogan next to him, "It can't be the 'Blood Sail', right?" ”
Tony nodded, "The Bloodsail, to be exact, but he definitely won't be called that name after that." ”
The captain glanced at the somewhat confused members and said, "That ship is still being inspected and modified in a hidden dock on Blue Mountain Island, it is a big ship with a hybrid of sails and steam, we have chosen to further upgrade the power, hull, firepower and other aspects of that ship, of course, since it is a pirate ship, so there will be no shortage of routine inspections." ”
Tony lifted his gold-rimmed glasses, "So it's going to take some time, and during this time, we'll need to recruit the crew, replenish supplies, gather information, and pick targets to prepare for our first official voyage." ”
Roman nodded, which is not difficult to understand.
And this period is not destined to be too short, it may take half a month or even a month before the upgrade of the "Blood Sail" will be completed.
"So, what do we call a converted ship?" Philogan opened his mouth and asked the name that Roman was also curious about.
"We haven't figured out ...... yet," Roman was halfway through his sentence when he was interrupted by the captain.
"No, I've already thought about it, let's call it 'Riptide Seagull'!" Captain Masashi said.
"......" Tony.
"......" Philogen.
"......" Hannah.
"......" Roman.
Even Emily didn't maintain her unwavering expression, and the corners of her mouth moved involuntarily.
Roman even covered his face, and the captain always seemed to have a sense of confidence in his naming ability.
After a few seconds, Tony couldn't help but ask, "When did you think about this?" ”
The captain didn't seem to notice anything unusual, and naturally spoke: "Just now." ”
Several people looked at each other, as if no one wanted to come up with anything.
Tony sighed and continued resignedly: "'Riptide Seagull', the transformation of 'Riptide Seagull' will take some time, about half a month. In the past half month, the captain and I will preside over the recruitment of crew members, of course, some of them must be members of the Storm Church, I believe everyone can understand. ”
Roman nodded, this is the proper meaning. The Church of the Storm will not allow a "navigator" and a "detective" to be on the sea without any regular supervision, and it is normal to arrange some crew members to be on board. It also helps the captain to keep the ship running.
After all, the crew members of the Church of the Storm are definitely relatively reliable, both in terms of their technical abilities and morals. The latter is particularly important.
"Filogan is responsible for replenishing the basic materials of the ship, especially the common medicines on the ship, I believe you are more professional than me, mainly in terms of quantity, it is more sufficient." Tony continued.
"No problem." Philogan agreed.
Roman thought for a while, as if he didn't have anything to do with himself in the next few days, thought of the task entrusted by Sotos before, and said to the captain: "Captain, I have a private solo escort mission here, if there is no business for me recently, I want to complete the task first." ”
Fred thought about it and it really didn't seem like there was anything that Roman needed to do. Then he nodded: "Then you pay attention to safety, return to the team in time, and if you have something, you should go to the 'Swordfish Bar'." ”
"Okay captain."
Next, there was a lively discussion about the details of the refit of the Riptide Seagull, and many suggestions were made, and Tony promised to provide some useful suggestions to the dockyard side for reference in the refit.
Of course, the captain's installation of a seagull-shaped statue at the bow of the ship was collectively vetoed.
After a lively discussion, everyone enjoyed a sumptuous dinner at Blue Wind, celebrating the promotion of Fred, Tony and Roman at the same time, and full of anticipation for the new life to come.
In the evening, Roman, who had finished the party with his teammates, came to the Golden Lemon Bar with a small package.
Inside the package was something that his teammates had heard that he was going on a mission alone, giving him things he might use, such as the medicine that Filogan gave him, some charms that Tony gave him, and so on.
He's going to come to Sothos. Jan inquired about the details of the escort mission.
