Chapter 231: Oni
"Hurry up! These things must be put on the ship today!"
"Stop, stop, be careful, it's full of perishable fruit, don't break it." ”
"One, two, one, two...... Hard, it's almost, count with me, three, two, one, hard, go up!"
"Where's the ice? Where did you put the ice cubes? Do you want to turn these fish into stinky jerky?"
......
When Gehr stepped onto the deck, it was the busiest time on deck. Many shirtless men were carrying boxes of supplies onto the ship, and when they looked at the large number of boxes on the platform next to the Mubarov, they knew that some of these people were busy today.
This is Hans Downton, the most prosperous coastal city in the Principality of Karne, known as the Pearl of Garne.
Today is the 24th of February, the day after the Mubarov arrives at Hans Downton, and tomorrow is the time for the Mubarov to depart again, and the deck is now busy in order to replenish all the supplies when the departure time comes.
Including the time in Aimenas, the first few times the Mubarov docked in a remote and far away from the crowd, although each docking point was built with great craftsmanship, it is not like it can be made in the world, but there is always a sense of obscenity, but when it comes to Hans Downton, it is completely different, the Mubarov not only flew into this densely populated city openly, but also swaggered to a special platform in the port area, seemingly without any concerns.
The people of Hans Downton did not seem to be too surprised by the appearance of the Mubarov, although there were those who stopped and pointed at the hull and the "dolphins" below, but most showed a kind of accustomed calmness.
For this case. Gehr was somewhat curious.
Gehr looked around for a moment, and saw that there were only a few young men on the deck who were preparers. As for the fact that he knows no one, Gell has some understanding of this situation. This was because Master Afro was giving a lecture, and most of the preparers went to the class, while most of the people who didn't attend the class stayed in the training ground or in their own rooms.
Master Afro's lecture Gehr went to yesterday, and found that he talked about basic martial arts and his own training, plus some combat experience, the content was quite interesting, but it didn't help Gehr much, so he didn't go again today.
Gehr walked to the side of the boat and saw Dindit standing at the bottom of the boarding board. Holding a stack of papers, he seemed to check something, and some aristocratic people gathered around him to talk to him in an unusually respectful manner.
Soon, several nobles left for a while, and when they returned, they brought some more slaves and began to help carry the boxes containing supplies.
In the distance, the port area is just outside the platform, and the road near the platform is full of people and horse-drawn carriages. The sound was also very noisy, and although it was difficult to hear the contents, it could still make Gehr feel the vitality of the port.
Because it is located in a tropical region, although it is still in the late winter and early spring. But in fact, the temperature in Hans Downton is already very hot, so the clothes of the pedestrians are quite thin, especially for women. There are often girls wearing only a bandeau on their upper body walking down the street, showing off their beautiful figures. It adds another beautiful scenery to this street.
"Griezmann!"
As Gehr observed the scenery of the strange city, a shout reached his ears. Follow the sound. It was Dindiet.
"What's the matter, sir?" said Gehr, who walked down the boarding board, as he looked at the noble-looking men around Dindit, as he approached him.
"You take her up, you give her an arrangement, and you teach her the basic rules. Dindit said lightly, but after a while, just when Gehr thought he had no words, he suddenly spoke again, and his words were a little low: "She is my niece, take care of her a little." ”
Gehr looked at Dindit's side, and a young girl stood quietly, probably Dindit's niece.
The girl was about sixteen years old, with long pale blonde hair tucked behind her head with a jeweled headband, and her appearance was beautiful, and her demeanor seemed to have been trained, and she looked too old, but the nervous look that flashed on her face from time to time still revealed that she was in fact a little girl who was not in the world. Her upper body was just a black bandeau like those of the girls on the street, reflecting her snow-white skin and slender waist, and her lower body was wearing a pair of black swordsman trousers, which set off her round and full hips and leg curves. The most conspicuous thing is that she wears a pair of golden rings on her upper arms and wrists, which are engraved with intricate runes on the surface of the ornaments in addition to precious gems, and Gehr can determine that those runes are all in the words of Ancient Thir Bricht just by glance, and although the double swords she carries cross-backed behind her back are not ordinary, Gell still thinks that the two ring ornaments are more precious.
"Very good, sir. Gehr nodded, and looked at the nobles around the girl, their attitude towards her was also very respectful, and it seemed that the identity of this girl was not ordinary, it seemed that it was not just the identity of Dindiet's niece.
At the same time as Gehr looked at the girl, the girl also looked at Gehr with the same scrutinizing gaze, and then took a few steps forward, took the initiative to stretch out her hand, and behaved generously, "Hello, I'm Oni Sigil, you can also call me Oni directly, please take care of me in the future." ”
"Griezmann, you can also call me Gehr. Gehr reached out and shook her hand, and immediately felt a thick layer of calluses, which did not unusually loosen, and then turned and walked to the deck, "Follow me." ”
"Okay, I'm sorry for you. Oni followed, and out of the crowd behind her came two strong men dressed as knights, one carrying a large suitcase and following Oni towards the deck, which looked like Oni's personal belongings.
Soon, the four of them went to the deck and came to the entrance of the cabin.
Gell turned around and stopped the two knights behind him: "You can't go in here." ”
"Yes, sir. "Apparently the two knights had been instructed beforehand, so they behaved very obediently. He placed the two large chests on the floor, bowed to Gel and Oni, and turned away.
Gell looked at the box on the ground. It's about the width of a person and a half, and it's a meter high. It didn't seem to be light, so he turned his head to look at Oni: "One for each person, can you do it?"
"No problem. ”
Gehr picked up the box, it was not very heavy, about thirty or forty kilograms, and it looked like it should be mainly clothing.
Looking back, Oni also easily picked up the rest of the box, and there was no problem, Gehr Ben walked into the cabin first.
"On the ground floor is the restaurant. There is a bulletin board inside, and the rules on board are posted there, so if you don't know anything, you can find information there. ”
"On the second floor is the driving range and library, where the average prep is most of the time on the ship. ”
"The third floor started with the accommodation area, and now the third floor is full, and you have to look to the bottom to find an empty room. ”
......
"What floor do you live on?" Oni, who had been quietly listening to Gehr's introduction as she walked, suddenly asked.
"Fifth floor. Gehr said flatly.
"Then I'll live on the fifth floor. ”
"It's up to you. ”
Gehr had no objection to her decision and took Oni directly to the fifth layer.
Walking around the hallway, there happened to be a vacant room on the fifth floor, and Oni chose one of them. Gell took his leave after putting the box in.
It's just a small episode, and although it's Dindiet's niece, it doesn't seem to have a low status in the city, but it doesn't have much to do with Gehr.
Later, when Oni and Geer and his party came into contact more. It was revealed that she was the princess of the Principality of Karna, and that her father, King of Karna, was Dindiet's biological brother, and that he and Dindit participated in the selection of their generation's patrons. As a result, it was clear that the king of Karne failed to become a patron. Dantindit succeeded, and the Duchy of Karna was founded.
But on this ship. This kind of identity is of little significance, stepping on this ship is equivalent to officially entering the world of patrons, and the outside world is different, here their own strength is the most decisive factor, otherwise Dindit will not deliberately let Gehr take care of Oni, according to the identity of Fei Yeli is the most suitable.
It is no wonder that the Mubarov was able to stop in the city so openly, according to Oni, the Mubarov comes to Hans Downton once or twice a year, and the residents here have long been accustomed to it.
For Dindit's request to take care of Oni, Gell will naturally gladly agree, so that he can repay Dinditer's previous favor for guiding him. It was a transaction, and both Gehr and Dindit knew it well, just as Dindit had instructed Fayeri, Culodo, and perhaps many more, that it was an investment, and a basic rule of the patronage world.
When the Mubarov set off again the next day, Gehr's life returned to its normal rhythm, except that the original small group of five became six.
"So we're going to fly on this sea for three months?"
Gehr looked at the purple-black figure that flew under the Mubarov from time to time, and his pupils flashed with a strange light.
"My father said that they had spent three months at sea before they crossed the Sea of the Sleepers. Oni nodded, pointed to the monsters under the ship that had human body shapes but lizard heads, and purple and black wings on their backs, and said: "This is the famous bandit humanoid race at sea, Jiabru, with a rudimentary civilization, often robbing passing merchant ships, and is considered the most hated guy by maritime merchants, because they do not rob property, but seafarers, and they eat people." Oni's eyes swept over Gel and the others, Gel and Camelrita still looked calm, while Quyatt and Hermiri, who were present, shivered.
"Don't worry, they won't be able to spot us, and even if they do, they won't dare attack our ship. Oni paused and continued.
"For what?" asked Quiyat.
"In the past, they tried to attack the Dolphin-class floating ships similar to the Mubarov, but not only did they suffer heavy losses, but they were also strangled by the Elder Organization of the Favorers and strangled their three nests in a row, leaving nothing left, so they learned to behave. In fact, these Kaburu are not enemies, and the deadliest enemy is still ......"
"Hey, you're all here, go to the bulletin board, there's new news there......" At the entrance of the cabin, Mido's figure appeared, looked around, and ran towards Gehr and the others and shouted. (To be continued......)
