Chapter 11: White Agate

This lunch took quite a long time because of the conversation between the two.

Esther showed Klein his new weapon, the "Logan's Claw" with a toxin effect.

"Wait, what are you calling it?"

"Logan's Claw!"

"If I'm not mistaken, it's because of the name of that golden wolf, right?"

"It's good to see through it," Esther replied with a smile, letting the claw knife dance in her hand, "It's really nice to play this way, and it's also convenient for cutting things temporarily." But if I can save money in the future, I probably want to grow my weapons all the time. ”

"It's really quite appropriate for the characteristics of your pathway. But haven't you thought about firearms? I think it's more deadly than a cold weapon. Crane patted his armpit pouch.

He has always felt that the advantage of firearms lies in distance advantage and speed, whether it is long-range or melee, it is easy to hit the opponent by surprise, and if it is a melee handover of weapons, it is easy to leave more flaws.

After all, the abilities of the extraordinary are strange, and there may be a place to restrain themselves, and in that case, it is too easy to deliver food in close combat.

Esther shrugged helplessly: "I mainly think that bullets are troublesome to start, if you can't find a supplement for ten days and half a month, it will easily become an ornament." I won't make my own psionic bullets either......"

But when it came to this, she came up with a new idea:

Maybe I can try to stuff the light points in? What effect will it have when it is knocked out, the pain of forcing the enemy's wound cycle to be penetrated all the time? Or is it simply to bring bad luck to the other person or disturb the fate of the other person?

Strange thoughts flashed through Esther's mind, but she was so wronged by these children who lived in the hair, she didn't plan to delve into it.

Klein looked at her with some amusement: "I always thought that you were inclined to melee weapons, in addition to being used to that kind of fighting, but also because you think you are more handsome." ”

Esther's face did blush a little, and she graciously admitted: "Of course, it's one thing. The fashion value can always make others shine when they appear, so as not to be recognized as a villain! ”

Klein awkwardly pushed his gold-rimmed glasses, and re-straightened his face according to the character of "Gelman": "Yes." ”

"Don't worry, with me on the side, you're not that much like a villain."

Esther looked at Klein for a moment, then added, "Probably?" ”

"Miss Hamel, you sound weak."

Crane's eye knife, which re-entered the role, was quite sharp, which made Esther laugh twice.

After ending this conversation with much more than a lunch, the two agreed to meet at 8:45 a.m. tomorrow morning, and to reserve a quarter of an hour in advance to meet each other, so as not to delay each other.

Although the White Onyx will be docked at the pier for a while, it is better to be early than late so as not to miss the moment of boarding.

Just before parting, Klein threw this sentence to Esther: "By the way, the taro-stuffed dumplings are not as strange as I imagined, let's eat them together next time." ”

She felt a little bitter in her heart: "I'm sorry...... If you have a chance next year, you will definitely eat together! ”

"Of course," Klein nodded slightly, "I'm not complaining about anything, because we'll see each other again, and that's the best outcome." ”

β€”β€”

The next day.

The sun is shining through the clouds, the port of Prydz is clearing, and it should be good weather in the near future.

Esther woke up early, and as soon as she sat up, she subconsciously looked into the couch of the hotel.

Sensing her habitual movements, Esther pressed down her right eyebrow and chuckled mockingly as she prepared to go out.

Soon, she left the hotel, packed two egg sandwiches with the vendor who came out early, and then asked for directions and made her way to Rose Wharf.

Esther arrived five minutes earlier than they had agreed, so she leaned against a stake and nibbled on her breakfast, and Crane showed up on time, exactly forty-five minutes.

"Here you go, I bought two copies." Esther ate as she handed the other one to Klein.

"Thank you."

In order to maintain the character of "Gelman", Klein's reply is always short and indifferent, which is quite different from Zhou Mingrui's own personality, which makes Esther feel more interesting, and she is curious about how far Klein can try to play.

But Klein suddenly realized that the biggest stumbling block at the moment when he played "Gelman Sparrow" seemed to be his fellow countryman. His thoughtful look made him even more embarrassed, and it took more effort for Crane to fit himself into the character of an adventurer at sea.

But when Esther stood next to him, Crane could clearly feel the difference between "himself" and "role", which made his potion digestion loosen a little.

He seems to be touching the edge of the "Faceling" playing code.

At around nine o'clock, some guests walked up to the pier one after another and walked to the "White Onyx" moored there.

The draft of the ship itself is not deep, and it is slightly smaller than the "Blue Gull" loaded with cargo, but compared to ordinary people, it is still a behemoth that needs to be looked up.

Esther didn't hide the excitement on her face, and looked curiously at the ship, which was halfway between the old age of sail and the new age of steam:

The chimneys that stretched to the sky puffed a small amount of mist, the sails were folded on the side of the mast, and the dark muzzles of each of the twelve guns were exposed on both sides, demonstrating the ship's remarkable combat strength, which was essential on pirate-infested journeys.

Sturdy sailors and crew members stood on both sides of the gangway, many with guns or swords hanging from their waists, so that passengers could see very clearly and make them more assured of their personal safety.

After all, the next voyage lasted nine days, and there were always some first-time guests who would be full of apprehension.

And some people are just full of anticipation.

Esther withdrew her gaze from the distant landscape, the sea crashing against the vast skyline, and she would never get tired of seeing the ebb and flow of light and waves.

"Let's go, let's get on board!"

"Hmm."

Crane followed Esther up the ladder and glanced into the distance.

The blue waters are always rushing tirelessly, inviting all the brave to participate in its extravaganza.

β€”β€”

As soon as the two stepped on the deck, a man wearing a half-height black top hat and a long trench coat walked over, although he was only in his thirties, his light blue eyes were serious and deep, and he was not a person who had experienced many things, I am afraid it would be difficult to precipitate such a demeanor.

Klein lifted a smile and said casually, "Good morning, we meet again." ”

Esther remembered that she seemed to have seen such a gentleman yesterday when she was buying a ticket, but she didn't pay much attention to it.

The rough-eyed man kept a distance of more than a meter before stopping and nodding his head: "Cleves, former adventurer." Man, are you a peer? ”

As he said this, he also glanced at Esther next to him.

"I thought you knew it yesterday, Gelman Sparrow."

Contrary to Klein's coldness, Esther blinked and extended her right hand at the former adventurer: "Hamel Brooke, a musician at sea~ Of course, this is just my little goal." ”

Cleves tugged at the corners of his mouth, but shook Esther's hand and quickly let go: "It's good, at least adventurer is not a great profession." ”

Then he looked at Klein again, and it was obvious that he had already observed the temperament he had deliberately created, which was also the original purpose of Cleves's communication with the two: "I have changed careers to become bodyguards, and this time I am following my employer's family to the capital of the Rorsted Islands. ”

He pointed to the other side of the deck.

Esther looked out with Klein and saw a well-dressed couple, their older and youngest children, three servants dressed and carrying various things, and two other bodyguards who were there to protect them.

"Three servants, three bodyguards?"

"Yes."

After answering Klein's casual question, Cleves quickly turned around and went back to his duties as bodyguard.

Esther rolled her eyes: "He won't look at you very fiercely, and he came to say hello, I hope you don't cause trouble, right?" ”

Klein bowed his head and chuckled rather unruly, "It should be." That's what I thought, too. ”

Because they bought the tickets together, Esther and Klein's cabins were adjacent, just next door.

Esther went into the house to take a look, and compared to the room she had lived in the Blue Gull, there were more tables and cabinets fixed to the floor, but there were also no chairs, so she had to sit on the bed if she wanted to use the table.

The bed is also softer and drier, with only a hint of moisture.

But the best thing about this room was that there was a window, and Esther couldn't wait to lean her face over, her eyes blurred by the bright sunlight, and she quickly pulled away again.

Washrooms and showers are shared, and because there is a central boiler, hot water is available on board, otherwise long voyages can be torturous for passengers who prefer to be clean.

The whistle sounded, and the ship was ready to sail to the blue sea, and Esther nestled by the window, watching the foaming waves come and go, and couldn't help but hum a song with a light tune. *

In the next room, Klein, who was also looking at the sea view and was playing a summary in his heart, was suddenly touched by his spiritual intuition, and he blinked suspiciously, sensing that the sharpness of his spirituality and five senses had suddenly increased slightly.

He didn't even need to pay attention to it, he could faintly hear Esther's soft singing, which seemed to be more like a perception that was close to him than through a wall.

Klein had a hunch that if he did divination at this time, his accuracy would be greatly improved.

Did she really force herself out of an auxiliary route, bard? However, this is probably also because of the special connection between "Zoya" and Gray Mist, which is really surprising.

Crane chuckled and continued to think about his plans to play the Faceling.
