"This, my lord, actually, after we left the territorial waters of the desperate Eastern Regions, ......"

As soon as the mage asked about the current situation of the Squid, Longchet immediately stood up and had a very strange attitude.

The mage urged a few words impatiently, only to know that after these people left the Serre Sea, they were immediately absorbed by a large local fleet, which was close to the pirate islands in the middle of the Falling Star Sea, and the pirate forces were huge, and the leader of this fleet seemed to be a wizard.

"He used spells to control a lot of people, probably all of them were nearby pirate ships, this ...... Belch...... Captain Abdul-Jabbar was clever and disguised as a servant to evade the wizard's spells, while we found an opportunity to kill the guards and escaped overnight. Lonche said hesitantly: "And here we are." ”

"It turns out that you betrayed your ship. The mage chuckled, understanding Loncette's reason for hiding it.

"My lord, that wizard is very cruel. Loncette touched his nose and smiled bitterly: "He has a dark smell all over his body, I don't know what will happen to him if he follows the captain into her island." ”

"Is your behavior forgivable?" Penny raised an eyebrow at him.

This is, after all, a pirate, and you can't ask too much for his loyalty.

The mage persuaded himself, and also noticed the man's hidden concerns, and comforted him: "You don't have to worry too much, I don't have that hobby, and I don't use any spells on my subordinates, well, I think the best way to ensure loyalty is to satisfy the interests of my subordinates, and from this point of view, that wizard is not very clever." ”

Longchet's expression immediately became serious, he was indeed worried that this wizard would be as brutal as the rest of his kindβ€”knowing that mages were rarely willing to bother to cultivate such an ethereal thing as loyalty, and they would rather use a crude and powerful means like magic.

"Tell me, Loncette, have you seen that mage, and what does his lair look like?" Penny thought for a moment, and decided to ask the man something specific.

It would be unreliable to expect him to directly state the rank of that mage, and there would be no mage in Faeron who would boast about his ability to cast a few rings of spells - except, of course, in a place where there are as many mages as dogs, because the mage's casting ability in that place is not a secret, he just wants to ask for some general information and deduce the approximate mana level of that mage.

If it's a guy with average strength, then float over and kill it and replace it.

"Oh, he dwells inside a fortress. ”

"A fortress, not a tower?"

"No, no. Loncette shook his head.

Penny nodded reassuringly, the absence of a spellcaster's signature building like the Mage Tower meant that the island was not his lair.

Of course, it's also possible that a mage from a non-mainstream faction will make the base a fortress or something.

It's not impossible.

And after hearing Longchet's addition, he relieved his heart again: "My lord, that fortress is very old, as if it is thousands of years old, and many of the walls are bald, it seems to be the remains of an ancient castle. ”

"Thousands of years of history?" This time Penny was relieved, few wizards would live to such a long age, and even if they did, they would not control a group of pirates in such a crude way, which means that the wizard who controlled the pirates was most likely temporarily settled in that ancient castle.

"The mage often wears a black robe that covers his face, and I have only met him once, and he seems to be very old, and there are several younger subordinates who give orders for him, who seem to be his apprentices. ”

"Very old?" Penny frowned and shook his head, this kind of information doesn't mean anything in judging the strength of an opponent, any mage with a little skill can disguise himself as hopeful, and if he doesn't look at him face-to-face, then he won't get too real information anyway.

Of course, it can be deduced through the details: "Have you ever heard what those apprentices call that mage, and what about their attitude?"

"Very respectful, they call him an adult. ”

Meaningless answer, the mage touched his chin.

"By the way, my lord, these apprentices have an eerie smell all over their bodies. Not quite like a normal person, but not like an undead, in short, very weird. Lonchet described his feelings with a wry eye: "I don't think of us as anything like them, Mistress Diesel, with all due respect, I've seen many apprentices, but I show superiority so clearly...... Not much. ”

"It's getting more and more interesting. Penny pinched his chin in thought.

...... "...... you say" The silky skin was stained with fine beads of sweat, as if smeared with a layer of sesame oil, Lannielou Ferrandlin was lying on the quilt in the tent like a big lazy cat, hearing the mage's words in his ear, his lazy eyes suddenly became vigilant, and he turned over and threw Penny on the sheets: "You are going to the northern island to reconnoitre?"

"Yes, the two places are not far away, and to get there is only a sturdy raft, and I can fly there with flying skills if I wish. Penny nodded, "I need to see where the wizard who controls so many pirate ships comes from, and maybe I can take the opportunity to kill him." ”

He decided to do so after some consideration, not too worried about the safety of the island.

Obviously, this is a deserted island with remote location, dense reefs near the coast, and large active volcanoes that often erupt, and the average pirate ship will not be able to visit here.

"And free the pirates who are being controlled?" Lannie laughed, "You're such a nice guy. ”

Her tone was sarcastic and sarcastic.

"No kidding. The mage frowned, pinching the lump of flesh against her chest, and let out a soft scream, then tangled her teeth and claws with Penny until the little girl sleeping next to her whimpered.

The mage and samurai movements froze at the same time.

"I just want to see if there's a chance to take over his power. He gasped and explained.

Lanny snorted, her two big eyes staring at the wizard who was close at hand, and being able to smell each other's nostrils was undoubtedly suffocating, so that their expressions were confused: "A bunch of useless waste is also worth your nosy?"

"I need people, more people, whether it's for running errands or whatever. The mage looked up.

She suddenly remembered something, and sneered.

"What are you laughing at?" the mage was puzzled.

"And more women to solve the problem for you?" she smiled a little loosely.

Penny laughed.

"Well, count me as well. ”

"What did you say?" the mage suspected, having auditory hallucinations.

"What are you thinking? I mean, if you're going to scout, you might as well take me with you. Lannie yawned, then leaned her head lazily on the mage's shoulder, "Give me a knife, I'm much more reliable than those pirates." ”

"No, I need someone to take care of the pirates for me, and keep an eye on her by the way. The mage glanced at the little girl next to her, who was tumbling on the sheets.

"I'm not a babysitter. She licked Penny's neck, "Besides, I'll be jealous, you're so good to her." ”

"Jealous?" the mage was stunned for a moment, he pressed her shoulder, so that her face was facing himself, "I said, why do you have such feelings?"

"Hmph, how can I be so bored? She narrowed her eyes: "Nasty man." ”

"Anyway, I suggest you stay here. Penny tilted her head, felt her body start to get hot, pushed her down against the sheets, and said in a strong tone.

"What a nasty tone, are you ordering me?" she stared coldly at the mage, her gaze full of defiance.

She snorted, her confused gasps disrupting the formed language, and under the cover next to her, a pair of eyes quietly opened a slit, blinked twice in confusion, and closed them again with a grunt.

The wheezing continued for a long time before it stopped.

"That's right. The mage thought of something, paused his movements, and took out the magic bag: "I have something for you." ”

"Give it to me?" she raised her eyebrows impatiently, "Come on, I don't like roses and rubies, don't use those things to make me happy." ”

"It's this. A long strip of something was taken out of the mage's pocket, and a dark red light flashed in the middle of the tent.

A giant longsword.

Lannie's eyes lit up, she reached out and grasped the hilt of her sword, feeling a burst of heat, and with a slight wave, a few sparks scattered from the light of the blade.

"I made it out of volcanic steel, maybe a little rougher, and I haven't polished it. The mage sat with his back against the corner of the tent, "But your sword is missing, maybe you can use this to deal with it first." ”

"Deal with it?" Lannie raised the greatsword, her eyes fixed intently on the blade, she took a breath and walked out of the tent, swinging it a few times, the elemental power of the volcanic steel releasing a crimson glow as it rubbed against the air.

The scattered firelight is like colorful fireworks, and against the background of the moonlight, it is like a god dancing with fire.

The greatsword slammed into the sand, splashing a dazzling flame.

"Not bad. Satisfied, she raised her greatsword and returned to her tent, rubbing her not-so-sharp blade for a while, and nodded to the mage, "It's much stronger than a knife." ”

"So please help me protect her. The mage let out a sigh and touched Nefez's head.

Lannie's face showed a hint of dissatisfaction, but instead of immediately retorting, she put down her newly-acquired sword and threw the mage on the sheet again: "You have to satisfy me enough first." ”

The intermittent gasps and moans rang out again, and Nephis's eyes quietly opened a slit, revealing a few glimmers of confusion, and then closed her eyes in a daze, rolled over and fell asleep again.

The night went by like this.

...... The next morning, the mage disappeared with Loncette to the seashore and set off on his way.

In order to get back quickly, he ended up using flying magic, and although he was in danger of encountering wind and waves, he could avoid most of the threats with enough spell protection.

However, when Miss Fina searched the camp for a long time and could not see the mage, she was surprised to see Lanny sitting on a stump supporting a group of pirates.

"Hmm, where's Mr. Diesel?"

"I went out to investigate, and I don't know how long it will take to come back. Lanny said in a tone of boiled water that was neither salty nor light.

Hearing this tone, Fina was inexplicably annoyed, and the most important reason was that this woman didn't even look at her when she agreed to her question, which was obviously an extremely rude act.

This arrogance alone was obviously not enough to make her so angry, and one reason that could not be ignored was, of course, the dissatisfaction in her heart for the rest of her life.

In the process of the mage's hijacking of the Danlington Rose, although the main responsibility should be borne by the mastermind and hijacker Pan Diesel, it was the beautiful woman in front of her who committed the atrocity against Miss Fina, which of course attracted most of Miss Fina's displeasure.

What's more, the woman never apologized from beginning to end - even the wizard who was the mastermind had apologized to Fina, but the woman named Lannie had an arrogant attitude of 'you are a bunch of idiots' from beginning to end, which inevitably made the already dissatisfied Fina even more resentful.

Of course, there is another potential reason that cannot be ignored, that is, whenever Miss Fina compares each other's faces, breasts, butts and thighs, she will find that she is a little inferior in every index, which naturally makes her very depressed and catalyzes the breeding of all kinds of dissatisfaction.

Now she saw that Lannie exuded a seductive aura, with a few drops of dew on her slightly curly hair, and a hint of redness on her wet face, and Miss Fina smelled a smell of spring very sensitively, and the thought that this woman and the wizard, the pair of dogs, had been messing around in their cabin, and the roots of her ears immediately turned crimson.

She wanted to turn away immediately, but she couldn't walk away at the thought of the importance of the question of 'the wizard's absence': "Go out to investigate, why didn't you inform us, aren't we collaborators?"

"I don't think he thinks it's necessary. Sensing the serious hostility wrapped in these words, Lanny glanced back at the girl up and down a few times, and suddenly a strange smile appeared on the corner of her mouth: "Hmm, is there something wrong with you?"

The smile made Fina even more angry: "He didn't even tell us? Hell, what if the volcano erupts again?"

"Oh, squirt, squirt, squirt, get used to it. Lannie looked at the beach lightly: "Not really, we can still jump into the sea, can't we?"

The teasing tone angered Fina, who gasped heavily, and saw Lannie's smile even brighter.

"Miss, don't always be angry, anger will rob you of your beauty. As if in front of Miss Fina for a moment, Lanny pinched her face and sniffed her neck while she petrified: "It will make your skin rough and dull, and give birth to nasty little bumps." ”

"You!" Fina's face turned red with embarrassment and anger, but when Lannie hugged her more boldly and bit her ear, she suddenly felt a pang of weakness and fell on the grass, her mind in confusion.

"That's good. Lannie smiled charmingly, "It's my type." ”

"You pervert. As if she understood something, Fina opened her claws and fled disheveled, while Lannie licked the corners of her mouth as if she had found a new prey.

"Mistress Lannie. The little girl's voice came into Lanny's ears from behind: "You just ...... What were you doing? What did you do with the adults last night?"

Lanny looked back in surprise and saw Nephis's confused gaze, a little strange and abrupt, and then embarrassed.

After all, it's not very appropriate to do something so that such a bystander can see it.

She rubbed Nephie's forehead, trying to find a conversation to divert the topic, but was petrified by the little girl's words:

"Is it copulation? I read about it in an encyclopedia. ”

Nephie bit her fingers, tilting her head even more confused, "But Lord Lannie, Miss Fina is a lady." ”

"Uh......" Lannie coughed violently.

"Adult, what does it feel like to mate?" The little girl with a curious look squatted down beside her and rubbed her eyes: "I didn't sleep well last night, do you feel very painful?"

"Children don't need to know that. The black knight couldn't bear it anymore and slapped Nephes's head hard, and the little girl 'oops' and covered her head aggrievedly.

"Miss, what's wrong with you?" Seeing Fina wandering back to the camp with a broken expression on her face, Old Robben was puzzled.

"I didn't ...... It's nothing. Fina was stunned and shook her head to make her expression look normal: "Okay, tell the sailors to keep working." ”

She cursed Lannie's pervert and hurried into the camp, Robben shrugged and turned his head.

......, "My lord, we are closer, we should lower a little." "The island in front of me is hidden in a fog, and after more than two hours of flight, it seems that it is not far from its destination.

"It doesn't matter, they can't find us. Penny pinched the pivot of Patyac, frowning at the white mist, he clearly sensed that this mist was wrapped in a force that could seal the mind, and if a person entered this place, after a while, I am afraid that it would be impossible for the mind to be sober.

People who use this kind of thing to control others to do things for themselves are not a good thing to think about.

, turning to Lonchet, "But how are we going to get in?"

"Look over there, sir!" Lonchet's eyes rolled and he suddenly pointed to the east, and the mage followed the sound and saw a ship coming from a distance, surrounded by several large ships.

"I haven't seen the boat in the middle. Longchet exclaimed, "That mage has been hijacked from the outside to the new ship." ”

"Hijacking, so the mage is on the ship right now?" the mage's eyelids jumped.

"My lord, this is not necessarily, he usually teleports and disappears immediately after hijacking the ship......

"Wait, he knows how to teleport, did he do it himself, or did he use a scroll or something?"

This information is very important, a mage who knows how to teleport, the ability to cast spells will not be below him.

"Well, I guess so. Lonchit's face was embarrassed: "My lord, I didn't pay attention to what utensils he used. ”

"......," the mage muttered.

"But my lord, his apprentice should be on board to guide the ship to the island. ”

"Apprentice?" the mage frowned, anchored in a secluded place on the island, and after instructing Lonchet to wait here, he opened the invisibility ring and flew to the ships.

The sailors on the hijacked ship were all imprisoned on the next few ships, and most of the people who were now in control of the ship were confused-eyed creatures, presumably loyal servants of the wizard under the blockade of their minds.

He sneaked into the wheelhouse and noticed the black-robed apprentice inside, and a strange smell made him feel unnatural on the spot.

This mage wrapped in a black robe seemed to have a thick shadow aura under Penny's perception, and it seemed to be a human alienated in some environment.

At the same time, in the lower cabin, a strange aura attracted his attention.

Someone lurked in a secluded cabin.

Penny sensed carefully, and was suddenly stunned for a moment, and his face turned strange.

Because the latent aura gave him a very familiar feeling, as if he had been exposed to it in the distant past.

"Mistress Grofia. "In the deepest cabin, a pair of young men in cloaks lurked, shielded from arcane detection by some kind of divine power, and beneath the cloaks were a man and a woman, with attractive faces under their golden hair, and a holy emblem hanging from an inconspicuous place on their chestsβ€”they were from the church of Tyre.

This cabin is located between the keel and the bottom plate of the ship, very narrow, and you can still hear the footsteps of the sailors walking overhead, it is obvious that the girl on the left is still calm, but the young man on the right began to scratch in a low voice: "The master is above, this feeling is really uncomfortable, we might as well directly mobilize the army of the church to flatten this place." ”

"Don't be naΓ―ve, Trainee Knight of Smith, why should we cross the pirate islands and the long seas to ask for assistance from the Church elsewhere? There are at least a thousand pirates here, and the wizards of Netherworld commanding them. The girl whispered, "We just need to investigate what these ghosts are doing here, and if we can destroy it, it would be better, but don't make more unnecessary sacrifices for our colleagues." ”

"Mistress Grofia, you are so merciful. Shi Ke was suddenly in awe.

The holy warrior in front of him is a legendary figure of the Tyre Church in recent years, although he is not very old, but he has been recognized by the father of justice, and has traveled south and north to go deep into the four realms of Faeron to make countless feats for the church, and has been awarded the new holy sword 'Pure Ness Potter' by the archbishop as a sword, heroic, beautiful, and more famous than those famous female saints in the past.

Naturally, he was the object of admiration for countless recruits, and Shik Langf was no exception, and his eyes fell on the plainly shaped saber around the waist of the maiden paladin, and he began to hope when he would get such a one.

Of course, he also needs to have enough merit.

"So, keep lurking and be patient. Serra Grofia lowered her hood with a serious expression.

The sound of the sea rubbing against the hull below is still being heard, and the voyage continues.
