Chapter 6: The Mysterious Sisters
Arnoyo looked at him angrily, and Zuihou said hatefully, "You have a lot of strength, hum, can you shake two rocker arms six feet apart at the same time? Why don't you go and call two people up to help! Besides, what if you are so strong that you wreck my boat?"
After saying that, she also glanced at Diarlando suspiciously: "Aren't you a nobleman?"
Diarlando pulled a mysterious smile and said, "Secret." Then he turned around and called for someone to come up and help drive the boat.
On the stairs, he pointed to the sailors who had been driven together by Radar and Fayer and asked, "Who are you, the wingman? ā
"IāI!" the two or three pirates in the crowd suddenly cried out, looking at their appearance, their arms were thick and their thighs were strong, and sure enough, they usually used their strength.
Diarrando waved his hand, and Fayl directly used the Wind Blade to cut through the tightly bound ropes and untie the men. The freed pirate rubbed his numb wrist and obediently climbed the stairs.
Fayel's grim face and Radhard's terrifying appearance had a very deterrent effect, and the pirates below were quiet, while the ordinary passengers who were noisy and loud had been impatiently cast by the mage with a stober spell. With this demonstration, everyone else obediently shut their mouths even if they wanted to do anything.
Seeing that Dearrando was about to return to the second floor cabin, another female pirate suddenly spoke: "How is my sister?
Diarrando stuck his head down from above, and said helplessly, "Do I look like that kind of bad person? And what about the seven or eight people up there? No matter how mad I am, I won't do anything in public, right......?"
Hearing this, Zoya, Dino, Achille, and Luna all laughed. Only the female pirate was serious and said, "My name is Kermia, please allow me to accompany my sister." She had a terrible back injury, but she had forgotten everything when she was so excited, and I was afraid that she would bleed to death. ā
Sighing with a headache, Diarlando waved his hand and motioned for Fair to let him go.
After Fayl untied the rope, Kermia did not immediately go up the stairs, but picked up the medicine box that had just been scattered on the ground before climbing up the stairs. She had lacerations on both arms and hands, though they were bandaged. It still looks like it's hard to hold things. Diarrando had to come down. Reached out and took the medicine box, and pulled a handful, and took her directly.
When he returned to the second floor, he found that Arnoyo, who was still in good spirits just now, had already spread out. Hanging weakly on a small table. The clothes on the back were completely soaked with blood. Sure enough, as her sister had said, the irascible female pirate had easily forgotten her physical boundaries.
Under the command of Arnoyo, the wingman shouted and cheered the racket, and the sound of huge wings flapping the air sounded outside the boat. Seeing that the airship had turned in the right direction, Arnoyo smiled and said, "That's it, and then keep the wings balanced at full speed, I'm going to sleep......"
With that, she spread her bones straight to the ground, but luckily Kermia had already walked behind her. After catching her sister's body and gently placing it face down, she tore off the underwear behind Arnoyo, opened the medicine box and took out cotton cloth and potion to clean up and bandage.
Dearlando turned his face away in embarrassment, looking directly at the lady's nakedness was not in line with the rules of knighthood, and he was not at ease about leaving this group of pirates in the power compartment like this, so he had to turn around, knocking and banging on everyone's posts, and constantly asking this and that.
However, the Turanda lingua franca of these pirates was very poor, and a few of them had heavy accents, and they could hardly hear what they said, so he had to shake up next to Zulu, who was supposed to be the first mate, and asked, "Where are you guys?" Don't you know that the knight of Shakolin, the governor of White Moody, is very powerful, and you can't defeat him at sea. ā
Zulu carefully examined a large dial on the side of the steam engine, pulling a row of levers according to the hands to maintain the proper flow of steam, and replied, "What are you afraid of! We won't land on the surface of the sea, and he won't be able to fly as a shark." ā
Dearrando thought about it for a moment and decided not to tell him that Shacorin was really good at flying now. But he continued, "How long have you been robbing Turanda's merchant ships?"
Zulu glanced in the direction of Arnoyo and said, "The first time we came here, we have been planning for a long time, and we heard that there has been a lot of chaos here lately, and there is a fat sheep who will take a boat here. Didn't expect ......"
"I didn't expect to meet us, didn't I? So this incident tells us that people should not do bad things, and if they do bad things, they will be unlucky one day sooner or later. Also, don't start work in a place that you are not familiar with, otherwise it is easy to go wrong. Dearlando coldly complained about the hapless pirates, curious about their target.
"Anyway, which profiteer Zack are you looking for? Weishenme you're not on Hovland's side, and you're familiar with the territory to intercept him?"
The first mate visibly struggled for a moment, and then said, "It's the tall, thin, chicken-like guy with black hair, a top hat and a jeweled handbag." Once in Hovland he was greeted by very good bodyguards, and from then on he was all inland, and it was very difficult for our ships to approach him. ā
Diarrando was surprised when he heard this: "Weishenme in Turanda he doesn't have bodyguards?"
Zulu said disdainfully: "In order to save money, he hired a temporary bodyguard in White Moody, and then fired him when he returned to Hovland, not wanting to spend the money for the bodyguard to ride in an airship." Moreover, the airship is a very safe means of transportation, and there is no record of being hijacked so far, so he is completely assured about this part of the journey on the road. ā
"Weishenme, I think you know him very well, who gave you all this information?
The first mate paused for a while, but Zuihou still squirmed: "We were commissioned by someone else to catch this guy." The news is all found out by others and told us. Two months ago, the leader picked up a woman who had committed suicide by jumping into the sea in Wuthering Bay, and it turned out that she was persecuted by profiteers. The family was bankrupt and had to commit themselves to marrying this man. However, the man still abused her, and Zuihou couldn't stand it, so she committed suicide by jumping into the sea while she was on vacation at the beach. ā
"What does it have to do with her suicide and you coming to rob the ship?" Diarlando didn't understand the cause and effect.
The leader persuaded her why she wanted to commit suicide, she should find a way to kill his profiteer husband, and then obtain his family property, and then find a young and beautiful handsome man, and live happily. ā
"Poof......" Diarrando was amused by Arnoyo's aesthetic obsession, "what an interesting man your leader is." And then what?"
Then the chief sent the woman back to her lodge and taught her how to find out her husband's itinerary. We're looking for an opportunity to kidnap this guy. A ransom is then demanded. Then when we get the money, we can tear up the ticket, and she can go and be a rich surviving person. It's a jihua that is beneficial to both parties. ā
Diarlando sighed and shook his head, anxious about the intelligence of these pirates. I was able to investigate the whole trip so thoroughly. There is also a way to give their people to the woman who sent them to the pick-up boat. How can it be a weak woman who is persecuted by her husband. Eighty percent of these guys were used by others as pawns, and Zack was really tied up, and the ransom would definitely not be paid. The other party directly waited for them to tear up the ticket, which was the most satisfactory ending.
"Are you really pirates?How long have you been doing this?weishenmeI think you guys all look like you're all tender?" Zuihou Diarlandor couldn't help but ask this question, as pirates they are too unprofessional, but they are quite skilled in sailing ships or something. With his knowledge of Hovland, there are very few people who can build and fly a skyship. Anoyo was so familiar with the whole navigation and the structural principles of the airship in the sky, he must have been exposed to this thing since he was a child.
"Don't inquire about our privacy anymore, you can catch it if you want to, where is there so much nonsense. Cemia, who had already bandaged her sister's wounds, spoke coldly and interrupted Dirlando's questioning. These two sisters, one with a fiery personality and the other with a cold personality, are very interesting.
"How can you not inquire clearly? If you are a habitual offender and have a lot of bloody cases on your hands, I will hand you all over to Shakolin to be brought to justice, and see whether you will be executed or punished with hard labor for the rest of your life. If it's a first-time offense and you don't hurt much, then I see if I can give you a lighter sentence, a fine, a whip, and then give you a chance to mend your ways. Deerland was mostly teasing and half serious as he explained to Kermia.
After hearing his words, the twin sister's face fell into deep thought, as if she was thinking about something. Although the surrounding pirate subordinates looked anxious, none of them spoke beyond their authority.
Obviously, the relationship between the sisters and the group of pirates is not like that of ordinary pirate captains and men, but more like masters and guards.
After thinking about it for a long time, Kemia still rejected Dierlando: "Our own affairs, we will find a way to solve it ourselves, you just take care of yourself." ā
Diarrando felt that this sister also had a personality, but now that time was in a hurry, he didn't have much energy to care about their affairs, so he had to go to Salar Island and hand over all the pirates to the island's guards to continue the investigation.
"That's what you said, since you don't want to confess, I won't intercede for you. How long will it take to get to Salar Island? I've really been wasted a lot of time by you, and if I can't make it to the ship, I'm going to have to settle accounts with you. ā
Kermia stood up, looked through the porthole, pulled down the lookout scope and looked at the direction of the bow, and then said lightly: "Arrived, the front is, you have to pray that we will not be shot down by the other side with artillery, after all, we have not been allowed to land." ā
Hearing this, Diarlando climbed the stairs and went to the observation deck on the top floor of the third floor to see, where the view was wide, and sure enough, a pillow-shaped island appeared about a mile ahead, the island was shaded by coconut trees, surrounded by white sand, and the turquoise water showed a deep shade of blue on the white coral reef, and the scenery was quite pleasing to the eye.
A white and blue airship was perched on a high platform erected on the island, and in addition to the blue and white stripes, the balloon had a very large prismatic gold icon on the top, with two crossed golden feathers in the middle of the diamond, and a blue lily pattern pressed on the feathers.
It is the uniform symbol of all commercial sky airships, representing the Feathered Clan and the Royal Family franchise of the Duchy of Hovland, which has more than thirty commercial routes in Hovland. Although this method of travel is not as fast as Turanda's teleportation system supported by the dragon magic net, it is already the fastest and most comfortable way to travel in the world.
After looking at the surrounding situation, Diarlando returned to the mechanical cabin on the second floor and asked Kermia: "What is the situation when you say that you will be shot down without landing permit?"
Kermia was fed a small glass of water to her sister, who had lost a lot of blood, and without looking up at the moment, she asked, "Do you see a thick tube like a pillar on the island? ā
Diarrando recalled, as if there were several of them in the coconut grove in the middle of the island.
"It's an airfire crossbow, specially designed to deal with the Sky Airship, the range is about a mile, we will soon be in its range, and someone on the island will send a flash signal, and if we can't verify our identity, we will be shot down. ā
"Isn't it...... So how do we verify our identity, can we hang a white chess piece? We can find a white cloth to hang out of the side of the ship. ā
"Do you think you'll be able to get in with a white cloth, and the security measures in that place are up to scratch?" Kermia retorted coldly, not at all alarmed by the imminent downing.
"And what are you going to do?" Deirlando raised his hand with interest, leaned against the wall next to him, and asked the female pirate how to deal with it, and the other party looked calm, as if there was a solution for a long time.
"I'm going to need a few more auxiliary wingmen so we can fly more nimble and we can dodge even if we fire from below, and once that thing is used, it takes about ten minutes to reload with new ammo.
Deerlando is becoming more and more interested in the identity of this pair of pirate sisters, after all, it is absolutely impossible for these people who can understand these people who are not aware of military defense liliang to be ordinary people, even if they are real pirates, they should have status and status back then, and they often come into contact with these things.
"How many auxiliary wingmen do you want?"
"Four below, two above, and preferably a lookout. (To be continued......)
