Chapter 161: Screaming Pirates
A pseudo-Niang peacock who can only shoot arrows with his tail, a black iron beginner-level magician mermaid, plus a large group of brainless bronze peak orcs, can such a casual combination of rabble really be able to fight against the biggest overlord in the southern part of the chaotic sea area?
Undoubtedly, the answer is no!
Miranda struggled to think about it for a long time, and finally accepted the truth with a disheartened heart, in fact, the only thing he could do now was to continue to sing sadly to the crescent moon: "Oh, love, you are so sweet, oh, love, you are so painful, oh, love, you are like a thorny rose, deep into my ......"
Lin Taiping finally couldn't listen to it anymore, and directly kicked the literary bird young man: "Listen, if you dare to chant half a sentence again, I really won't help you save people, I swear by my character!"
Being kicked out more than ten meters away, Miranda, who got up, not only did not get angry, but opened her eyes in surprise: "Lin, dear Lin, what did you just say, are you really willing to help me rescue Nancy?"
"That's right, if you don't chant anymore. Lin Taiping rolled his eyes angrily, thought about it and added, "Of course, Angelina and I will be happy to help you rescue Nancy...... Stop, don't rush to hug, listen to me first, I only said to help you save people, but I didn't say to go now!"
It's good to be willing to help, it's good to be willing to help, Miranda was so moved that she nodded desperately, but she couldn't help but ask cautiously: "So, then when will it be approximate, it won't be decades of waiting, waiting until blood is sprinkled and old and dying, and when Nancy becomes a widow." β
"You can afford to wait, we can't afford to wait. Angelina replied directly, thought about it and frowned, "It's hard to say the specific time, but it's like what Kobayashi just said." We have to slowly build up our strength, find a way to make more money, find a suitable island to develop, and recruit people to form an army...... Well, whatever, it will take two or three years. β
Seriously, two or three years is already a short time, and when Miranda heard this, she immediately hung her head again: "See the undead, that is." I'm going to have to wait a long time to save Nancy, and I'll have to make sure Nancy doesn't get caught up in that blood-spilled bastard...... Wait!"
Without warning, halfway through his resentment, he suddenly raised his head as if he thought of something: "Wait, I can't help make money, and I'm not familiar with the island, but if it's about recruiting people, I have a quick way to get results!"
Are you sure?, Lin Taiping and Angelina glanced at each other. I couldn't help but be slightly stunned, looking at Miranda's confident appearance, could it be that he is the leader of a beast tribe that can bring hundreds of little brothers over at any time?
"I really want to. The problem is that there are few people in the Peacock Clan. Miranda sighed depressedly, but before everyone was disappointed, he suddenly said with excitement on his face: "However, I have another way. What better way than this...... Hmm, have you ever heard of the Screaming Pirates?"
Poof! Lin Taiping couldn't help but squirt water in his mouth. The name of Xindao is really rotten, but Angelina next to her was slightly surprised, and said quietly: "Don't be surprised, it's a group of pirates formed by a group of ogres, you know that they all like to gnaw on human bones while watching the captives scream......"
Poof! Lin Taiping once again squirted water, you can go out to water the flowers, I will go, since when did those ogres with very special food tastes also start to engage in the promising profession of piracy?
The so-called ogres, as the name suggests, are a group of evil monsters who like to eat human flesh, this notorious dark creature is fierce by nature, and likes to eat captives after every robbery...... Well, that's not the point, the point is, these guys don't seem to be able to use water at all, and if they get into the water, they will sink directly, so they can also be pirates in this way?
"What can be done if life is compelled?" Angelina sighed with emotion, "Xiaolinzi, you also know that in today's chaotic seas, land and islands have been occupied by humans, we dark creatures can only venture out to the sea to make a living, let alone ogres, I have seen a group of underground dwarf pirates before, and those guys can't even read navigation charts." β
Very good and powerful, Lin Taiping really didn't know what to say, but Angelina added with a strange face: "Speaking of which, I seem to have dealt with that screaming pirate group, and I have to admit that those ogres are really lucky, and they haven't all drowned until today." β
Of course, then again, although they were not drowned, the prospects of the Screaming Pirates were not very optimistic, in fact, their overall strength was similar to that of the Dark Queen Pirates, dozens of ogre pirates were all around the bronze peak, and the pirate leader and ogre patriarch Giant Tooth was slightly stronger, and he was considered a berserker of the Black Iron Rank.
"So?" Lin Taiping couldn't help but turn his head to look at the peacock pseudo-girl bird beside him, "Miranda, are you going to take us to the Screaming Pirate Group to persuade those ogres to join?"
"That's right, don't you think it's a good idea?" Miranda nodded desperately with a flushed face, so excited that she even opened the tail screen, "Think about it, no matter how bad the Screaming Pirates are, there are dozens of bronze peak ogre warriors, if we can convince them to join, even if it's just a temporary cooperation, it will be enough to make our strength skyrocket." β
"You think too much...... Angelina was not so optimistic, and couldn't help but roll her eyes, "Don't forget, although they are both dark creatures, ogres and orcs don't have much friendship with each other, and there was even a bit of conflict in the past, are you sure those guys will help us instead of giving us a barbecue?"
It's, it's just, a whole bunch of orcs nodded desperately with the same feeling, even in the dark camp, those damn ogres are notorious, and hardly any dark race wants to deal with ogres, because you have no idea when they're going to give you a stick from behind and happily drag you back into the hole to sprinkle seasoning......
"I know, I know those guys are hard to deal with. But Miranda was not hit at all, but reached into her arms excitedly, "However, if you add this thing......"
In an instant, everyone's eyes fell en masse, focused on Miranda's right handβin fact, it was a personal letterhead. On the pink letterhead, there are a few lines of elegant text, and in the lower right corner, there is an autograph of Mrs. Nancy.
Stunned, Angelina snatched the letterhead casually, and after a few minutes, after briefly reading the contents of the letterhead, she suddenly became full of strangeness: "Well, Lady Nancy actually knows those ogres and asks them to help you...... See the undead. Miranda, you got this from soft rice?"
"What is it called eating soft rice, Nancy and I are really in love, okay?" Miranda was hit so hard that her mouth was full of blood, and she couldn't help but say with resentment on her face, "Okay, I admit it, this was secretly stuffed to me by Nancy, but this has nothing to do with eating soft rice for a dime." She was just worried about my lack of food and clothing, so she wrote this letter and asked me to borrow money from those ogres. β
And said that you don't eat soft rice? Angelina and Lin Taiping looked at each other, and they had long gritted their teeth with envy. Beasts, beasts, we didn't make much money by robbing desperately, you pseudo-lady bird and soft rice king can not only roll the sheets, but also take the handwritten letter to withdraw money...... Not. Then again, how could Lady Nancy know those ogres?
"You are the pseudo-mother, you are the king of soft rice. Miranda was angry and aggrieved. But he didn't forget to explain, "It's actually very simple, those ogres once robbed Nancy's cruise ship, but they were wiped out by Duke Blood's guards, you all know, my Nancy is a very gentle and kind person, and she ...... when she soft-hearted."
That's right, just like Miranda said, Mrs. Nancy not only did not kill the ogres, but let them go, feeling the kindness of Mrs. Nancy, the ogre patriarch Giant Fang swore to repay a hundred times when he left with his subordinates, no matter what Mrs. Nancy asked, as long as the ogres could do it, they would not hesitate to go up the knife mountain and go down to the sea of fire.
Because of this, when Mrs. Nancy was helping Miranda escape this time, she suddenly remembered the Screaming Pirates, she didn't expect Miranda to come back with the ogres to save her, after all, the strength of those guys is not very good, but with the help of the ogre, Miranda's life can always be better, at least she will not eat and sleep in the open and starve......
Hearing this, Angelina and the orcs once again strengthened their judgment, but Lin Taiping was envious and jealous, looked at the handwritten letter, and suddenly touched his chin thoughtfully: "So, Miranda, you mean, if we take this letter to those ogres, it is possible to persuade them to join?"
"Why not?" Miranda took back the letter and put it back in her arms as if it were a treasure, "Yes, ogres are brutal and savage, but Giant Fang once swore in the name of the ogre ancestors, and I don't think it would let its ancestors be overshadowed no matter how much it bastards." β
I have to admit that what he said does make a lot of sense, Angelina and the orcs looked at each other, and they all frowned thoughtfully, this is true, although those ogres are all bastards, but their respect for ancestors and gods is completely consistent with that of other races, from this point of view, if they see this letter from Lady Nancy......
"Lin, what do you think?" After hesitating for a long time, the orcs still couldn't make a decision, and subconsciously turned their heads to look at Lin Taiping, unconsciously, they were all used to treating Lin Taiping as the backbone, in Angelina's words, Xiao Linzi's guy was blacker than a demon, and he could bring people back to life every time.
"You can give it a try. Lin Taiping touched his chin with a smile, almost without hesitation, "I think even if those ogres don't want to join, they will provide us with some help...... Ahem, Miranda, I'm not done yet, where are you going?"
Well, Miranda was already ready to go, and when she heard this, she couldn't help but be slightly stunned: "What's the problem? If you delay for one more minute, Nancy will suffer for one more minute, and how can I bear the thought of forcing a smile in front of that blood-soaked bastard?"
"Ann, Ann, I can understand your feelings. Lin Taiping patted him on the shoulder and said slowly, "But the question is, do you know where those ogres are, as far as I know, pirates don't have a fixed territory." β
This is true, Miranda was stunned and speechless, but before he could escape from this basin of cold water, Lin Taiping poured a second basin very sympathetically: "More importantly, even if the ogres are willing to join, do you think that with our strength, we can really rescue Mrs. Nancy?"
With a bang, this basin of cold water is really cool enough, and Miranda, who was still fighting high just now, suddenly hung her head, and asked pitifully after a long time: "So?"
"So, we're going to do two things at the same time. Lin Taiping stretched out two fingers and shook them happily, "First, let Angelina start the relationship and find the hiding place of those ogres; second, during this time, work hard to make money and accumulate a large amount of money as quickly as possible, as long as you have this fund in hand, no problem is a problem." β
Yes, as he said, the problem that can be solved with money is not a problem, as long as you have enough money, you can buy sophisticated weapons and equipment, build battleships with fierce firepower, hire those ogres to work hard, take a hundred steps back, even if the ogres really tear up their promises, but tens of thousands of gold coins are thrown out, are you sure they still have discipline at all?
What is the festival? Angelina and the orcs nodded their heads again and again, agreeing with this, but Miranda thought about it, and couldn't help but be a little puzzled, well, everyone knows that using money to open the way is the most correct way, but the question is that with the condition of our orcs, how can we make a lot of money?
"Who said it can't?" Angelina puffed up her chest triumphantly and took out a box of Forty-Nine Cold Spirit, "Look at this! Do you know how much this thing sells for a box? Do you know how many orders we have received? Do you know that the medicines we have sold can be connected to go around the chaotic sea area two and a half times?"
I know a ghost! Miranda was completely dizzy, but Lin Taiping coughed lightly beside her, and reminded her seriously: "Low-key, sister, we must be low-key, and then again, just the drug business is not enough, maybe we should consider a new money-making plan." β
Angelina immediately threw away the cold spirit, and the orcs next to her were even more energetic, let the undead go around the chaotic sea area twice, just look at Lin's happy expression, you know that he must have some new plan to make a lot of money, so we can go and order a few hundred safes now?
"Relax, relax, we still need a little help, for example......" Lin Taiping lit a cigar and touched his chin very seriously.
A few minutes later, under the expectant gaze of the orcs, he finally turned his head very happily, and looked at Miranda, who suddenly felt chills all over, with that kind and innocent warm eyes.
"Hi Miranda, you just said that you are still a painter?" (to be continued......)
