Chapter Fifty-Seven: A Suspicious Pirate Regiment

While Mogan was sincerely showing the similarity of their identities here, Connor quickly made a move, stepped out from behind Melissa, and walked in front of Will a few steps.

Sensing that the crew members under her protection seemed to know the strange boy who suddenly appeared in front of her, Melissa also shrugged her shoulders in amusement, glanced at the sudden appearance of Mogan, and even spotted Lucifer on the other side who turned his back and didn't want to look here.

Will slowly lowered his hand, unconsciously straightened his back, and opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything.

"Will ...... When did you arrive at the port of Saint-Lun? ”

After a brief shock, Connor tried his best to calm down, catching the dodge in Will's eyes, and his expression gradually became solemn, "You don't seem surprised to see me?" Are you here for me? How did you end up here? ”

Three questions in a row made Will even more overwhelmed.

"I ...... I'm from ......"

Connor, aware of the other people's gaze, turned her head and asked Melissa for advice, and then without hesitation, she grabbed the corner of Will's clothes and dragged him out for a private chat.

Melissa looked at their backs as they left, raised her eyebrows slightly, and then turned to look at the man behind Austin outside the door.

"Al! Listen to them and don't get in danger. She won't let me go, in case something really goes wrong, it's yours. ”

The person outside made a gesture of yes.

Melissa thought for a moment and hurriedly added, "By the wayβ€”be careful not to hear what the two of them are talking about, I seem to have promised not to eavesdrop." ”

Even Austin was speechless, "How can you be so embarrassed?" ”

It is simply not in the spirit of humanitarianism to let people listen to danger and not listen to content.

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Even so, the brother named Al didn't squeak, probably getting used to it.

Melissa also sensed that something was wrong, and touched her chin, "Then don't pay attention to it, just don't tell me anyway." It's okay, Al is good at keeping secrets, and Connor probably understands. ”

After giving the instructions, Melissa turned her gaze to the two of them again.

"This seems to be the learned brother by the sea?" Captain Blue Eagle took off his hat in greeting, raised his eyes and smiled, "I've heard the crew talk about the whole incident, and I want to thank you for your help - there is another one, it should be Mr. Warren?" ”

Internally, the captain may be a little casual, but from before to now, Melissa has shown very thoughtful external etiquette, and does not look like a pure reckless man as rumored.

Mogan also turned to look at Lucifer in the corner with her gaze.

He was looking at this side from afar, and even if he kept quiet, it was difficult for people to completely ignore the extraordinary temperament in their normal state.

Lucifer stood where he was, nodding his head.

It's really not that the king is closed this time, it's just that it wasn't his original plan to come here, so he naturally has to hand over the initiative to Mogan, who knows more about what happened.

Mogan could also understand this and cooperated with it.

"Mr. Warren doesn't like to talk, and I speak for everything. The three of us found the cargo ship in the harbor and managed to sneak in through the loophole, just arriving at the cabin. ”

If you say too much, you will lose, but fortunately, it is not used as an explanation, but only needs to guide the topic to the issues that everyone cares about. Mogan deliberately blurred the time and method of boarding, and with a glance, he threw out some of his reasons.

"I'm a businessman, and I happen to know a little magic. A colleague said that there was a strange commodity being sold on this black cargo ship, and I had just come to investigate one or two. As for Will, it was the brother of Miss Connor, who was an apprentice to a local merchant, and had come with me because he had seen Miss Connor in the harbor. ”

After explaining his intentions, the other party naturally needs to make a sincere clarification.

Since this Captain Blue Eagle follows etiquette and does not shy away from the two of her just now, it proves that she does not want to cause conflicts at will, and she is more aware of current affairs.

Melissa's eyes twinkled, and she muttered for a moment, but she still spoke.

"Since your kid is Connor's younger brother, you should know that something is wrong with their family. The reason why we set our sights on the cargo ship was because something happened on board that night, and it suddenly fled invisibly; The second is because of Connor. ”

"Because of Connor?" Mogan repeated.

"We almost coincided with the cargo ship for some time, and Connor was on duty at the lookout. She said she saw people on the cargo ship similar to when she left her hometown. ”

It seems to be a plain narrative, but Melissa's observant gaze and deliberately omitted parts of her words can show that she is still testing whether Mogan is really in the know, and knows what happened to the Mirandi siblings.

After all, walking with Will does not mean that he is trusted.

Mogan naturally noticed this, and when he thought of Will's experience, it suddenly became clear.

"Similar people, those blindfolded men in black?"

"That's right."

Melissa nodded.

After all, this cabin is too cramped, and the most important thing is that it is too cramped. A few people walked outside, and Mogan also saw the real general layout of the cargo ship.

The cargo ship as a whole should be made of the common moon pine wood on the market, and the indiscriminate coverage of the natural paint is not obvious from the outside, but it is particularly obvious on the inside, especially where there are obviously not so many details in the cabin.

The moon pine is a common tree that is a specialty of the Kohl Kingdom, although it is not a magical material, it has more magical properties than ordinary wood, so it is moderately expensive and relatively cost-effective.

"This is Al Yatnos, our ship's carpenter, shipwright, and mage's bodyguard." Melissa said that the title was quite long, and then turned to the other side, "Austin, you all know, he should have a high presence wherever he is. ”

"I didn't say I needed any protection."

Austin snorted at this, and Al, behind him, adhered to the rule that silence is golden.

Al Yatnos had a muscular physique, an expressionless face, his short gray hair shimmering with a metallic sheen, and his face was resolute and unusually cold.

This person is also the tool man who had a quick glimpse before, and left immediately after escorting Robbie, and now he is as silent as before.

"Austin is a native of Denton, and it is said that he is directly under the Star Dome Sea, but he is also a citizen of the Kingdom of Denton. As for Al, he seems to be a native of the Kohl border – another border, of course...... Wait, isn't it in Cole? ”

Melissa thought for a moment, then turned her head to verify.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ I was born in the Arcane Forest. ”

Al finally uttered the first words.

Captain Blue Eagle smacked his lips, "Then you should be able to count yourself as half a fellow with the natives of Cole?" ”

The Arcane Forest is located at the junction of the Kingdom of Cole and the Kingdom of Denton, and is the forest with the largest number of magical races in the entire Twin Continents, covering a part of the territories on both sides, but there is actually no clear dividing line.

Mainly because within this special area, the distinction between the subject countries is that the different races in the territory themselves are closer to which side of the kingdom is closer, with the majority of the ethnic groups close to Cole, followed by Denton, and the remaining ethnic groups that do not choose any side and are independent of one side.

Inexplicably got a long list of information, and Mogan could also understand that this way of introduction was Melissa reminding himself to introduce his identity, and he didn't need to hide it.

"Mogan Grande, I am a merchant and a native of Asun, the Kingdom of Cole."

"You are from the capital of the kingdom of Kol, the city of Asong?" Melissa was happy and teased casually, "That's a good feeling!" If you see Her Majesty Queen Cole, you can help me convey the message of 'The Blue Eagle Pirates greet her old man and wish her a long life'. ”

Usually this statement is just a simple joke, a kind of pretext, simple compliment, and incidental approach, which not only elevates the status of the locals opposite, but also pays tribute to the supreme ruler of the Kingdom of Cole, Her Majesty the Queen, who is loved.

Because from a practical point of view, very few people can meet Her Majesty, and the locals of the royal capital are no exception, let alone talk to them or pass on the news on behalf of others.

But it was Mogan who said thisβ€”and the actual effect was a little subtle.
