Chapter 220: Mercenary Group (Wear)
In the following month, the nine-star dark mage did not go to Xu Wen's trouble again, and the witch-like Xiao Ran seemed to have evaporated from the world, and did not make a lot of noise in the cabin of the building ship. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Except for the loyal guards on the outer floor of the building, Xu Tian retreated in his room and was silent.
There was an unusual calm inside and outside the ship, just like the sea outside.
The old crew members who often go back and forth to the route of the 'Scarlet Alliance' and 'Li Yu' gathered in the cockpit of the ship, looking at the unusually peaceful blue sea and sky outside, and their eyebrows twisted into pimples, looking preoccupied! Cautiously looking at the old man in the corner with a purple and gold smoking gun, the latter swallowed the smoke ring one after another for a long time before knocking down the cigarette pocket, and raising an old face full of traces of wind and frost and eyes full of shrewd light.
"We haven't seen anything in a big wind and a big wave? Such a little wind and wave can't capsize the boat! Everyone think about how to deal with this matter...... the best thing to do," the old man coughed and spoke.
The others looked at each other with complicated expressions, and their lips moved for a moment, and then swallowed back hesitantly, no one really made a sound, the old man looked around, smiled, and spit softly: "Are you afraid?"
The others suddenly couldn't hold back and looked embarrassed.
An older middle-aged man looked at it and sighed with emotion:
"Captain, let's take a detour. ”
"People are really a little worried these days...... It's the first time I've come across such a situation after going to sea so many times, and the message that came from the sea some time ago...... Most likely it's true!"
"That's right. ”
Others chimed in:
"Captain, we have all been fighting with you for so many years, when have we ever been afraid? But you can't know if you are dead, but you can't go and break the blood...... Is that worth it? You're right?"
"The deputy head is right! The three pirate groups have been dissatisfied with the status quo since a long time ago, and this time they have no reason to miss such a good opportunity!"
Everyone looked at the old captain:
"It's just a few more days of sailing, and we can explain it to the employer, and they'll be able to listen." ”
Not a single merchant ship has been seen on the perennially busy route for more than a month, even in the era of rampant piracy.
Think back to more than a month ago, rumors came out - the Scarlet Alliance will be in a long melee with the Dark Empire, and there is no time to maintain order at sea, and the three pirate groups composed of marauders on the sea are ready to march and seize one side.
In all probability......
The abnormal situation at sea is the result of the three pirate groups!
The captain silently listened to everyone's opinions and suggestions poured out like opening the gates, closed his eyes and spit out smoke rings for a long time before opening his eyes: "Detour? You guys are very easy, if you want to avoid the activities of the three pirate groups, you will have to take at least twenty more days to get there, and Li Yu's employer will not agree...... And you should know the dangers of staying away from the route...... In addition, the client made it very clear when paying the remuneration that the person we were going to escort this time must arrive at the destination in the shortest possible time, and the other half must be paid after the person on board disembarks within the deadline. ”
As the leader of the mercenary group, the old captain knows very well how the mysterious and powerful employer is like an arrow!
Every two days, someone would be sent to inquire about the remaining voyage and whether it could be further shortened, and if you came to the door to inform you of these things, you might offend an employer if you didn't mention 50,000 gold coins......
In any case, he didn't bother to bypass the sea. But the current situation is really very strange...... At this time, an ethereal voice suddenly came into everyone's ears clearly: "Three pirate groups, tell me what's going on!"
The nine-star dark mage Gao Sen opened his eyes in the pavilion on the top floor of the ship.
The old captain stood up from his position when he was startled:
"Your Excellency?"
He naturally knew who the owner of this voice was, his employer had confessed his identity at the time, and he had been able to roughly deduce Gao Sen's strength recently.
"Well, tell me about the three pirate groups you just talked about. ”
Gao Sen asked with an expressionless face.
Although this is not the first time to go to sea, he has never heard of the information about the three major pirate groups, after all, at his level, the momentum he exudes is very amazing, let alone the pirates and thieves are close, they can't hide when they see it!
What's more, the Scarlet Alliance was already a few years ago.
"Yes!"
The old captain nodded respectfully, and did not dare to slack off to take down the purple-gold cigarette gun that had been swallowing in his mouth, and hung it on his waist to explain in the direction of the pavilion.
............
Although the mercenary system of the Scarlet Alliance has created a strong country, it has not been a small disadvantage! Many people have paid the price for it, and it has been for many years. Many mercenaries will offend the huge mercenary group organization or violate the legal system of the Scarlet Alliance because of their momentary pleasure and revenge!
Although many people have formed a small organization like the evil lord and can still walk within the country, most of them have to go overseas because of their own strength or the fact that the family power is too large. Pirates are born!
The sea is an area that most mercenary groups of the Scarlet Alliance cannot set foot in, and there are countless islands where a cat will not be seen for the rest of his life.
The marauders used the vast expanse of the ocean as a backing to begin their pirate careers in droves. The Pirate Corps was born. Of course, the goal of an ordinary pirate group is very limited, and it cannot deal with a large mercenary group like Fish Arrow, which has thousands of high-level mercenaries under the scale of a ship. The three mercenary groups in the old captain's mouth......
It is the powerful pirate group that roams the seas - the Hundred Ghost Fury.
Each of these three pirate groups has contained more than 100,000 mercenaries, occupying the vast majority of overseas islands; the leaders of the three major pirate groups are all nine-star level powerhouses, and they are not ordinary mercenary groups that can deal with them, or large mercenary groups that specialize in running by sea have to offer a part of their 'filial piety' every year.
In the past, the Royal Mercenary Group, the Official Mercenary Group, and the Civilian-level Mercenary Group of the Scarlet Alliance could still deter these three sea giants, so that they did not dare to approach the inland land, but they could still be safe, but now.
The Scarlet Alliance has become a mess! The Scarlet Alliance is in a state of scarcity, where is the surplus manpower to be dispatched? The three major pirate groups chose this time to start an incident, which can be regarded as the right time.
Hearing that there were at least six nine-star level powerhouses among the three major pirate groups, Gao Sen couldn't help but raise his eyebrows......
In normal times, Gao Sen would definitely not care about the three major pirate groups, but he was also a dark magister, and he couldn't run away if he couldn't beat it?
But this time the situation was different! There was a person in the ship who was very important to him, and whether he could raise his eyebrows when he returned to the Dark Empire was up to the young man at the bottom of the cabin. Even if the entire crew of the ship is sacrificed, Xu Tian will never be allowed to make the slightest mistake, it is better to be cautious when encountering this kind of thing.
"If you take a detour, will you be able to avoid the pirates?"
"This ......," the old captain shook his head:
"It can only be said that the probability of encountering a pirate group will be reduced to a minimum, and it is impossible to completely avoid the area where the pirate group is active. ”
"If you're sailing to uncharted waters......
As soon as Gao Sen's words came out, the group of people in the cockpit turned slightly pale.
The old captain was even more embarrassed, wiping the beads of sweat on his forehead and not daring to show the slightest disrespect: "The unknown sea is more dangerous! Undercurrents and whirlpools are everywhere! Reefs are fiercely hidden...... There is no shortage of nine-star level demonic beasts, even we dare not set foot in them easily......"
“......”
Gao Sen's eyes were slightly cold.
Naturally, he could feel their awe of the unknown sea from the tone of the old captain's tone! It was not just as simple as the danger of the nine-star that a group of eight-star powerhouses could be feared like snakes and scorpions, and even if he was afraid, it would be difficult for him to retreat from the sea, and it was neither to advance nor to avoid...... No wonder a group of eight-star strength masters also shrank in the cockpit in embarrassment to discuss the next route of the ship.
"Since you can't completely avoid the detour, continue to follow the original route!"
Gao Sen acted decisively and decisively.
Several of them in the cockpit had changed their faces!
"This ......"
I was about to say something, but was interrupted by the old captain's angry reprimand:
"Shut up!"
When a few people arrived, they swallowed it back.
The old captain respectfully bowed his hand:
"Obey your lordship!"
Now that he has the permission of his employer's friend, he has nothing to worry about.
Although this mercenary group does not have a nine-star level powerhouse, but the eight-star strength of the master is more than thirty; Gao Sen's strength is already self-evident, the nine-star master has his words, what is really happening, the other party will not stand idly by, at that time, even if the leaders of the three major pirate groups are in person, as long as there are only two nine-star level masters, they can completely cope with the past - the combat effectiveness of the building ship is not bad, and it is not something that the pirate group can have.
In the pavilion
After giving the old captain the order to continue the way, the man disappeared from the pavilion, while in a dark room at the bottom of the cabin.
Xu Tian, who had been sitting in place and cultivating motionless for dozens of days like a wood sculpture, opened his eyes in the second after the black shadow appeared, and Gao Sen caught a faint divine light from his eyes, and quickly disappeared from his eyes.
"Something?"
"I heard that you have a fake elixir. ”
"In exchange for what?"
Xu Tian simply closed his eyes, leaving Gao Sen's face full of astonishment, and when he got Xu Wen's reply, Gao Sen' raised his eyelids, and the temperature on his body plummeted, and the momentum of the nine-star dark mage also spread out without reservation at this moment!
"I think maybe you need to re-understand your situation. ”
The tone of the cold voice said this sentence at the same time as the powerful momentum of the magician, and he pressed the air of one person and two beasts in the room with all his might!
"Woo!"
It's no wonder that Gao Sen will be angered by Xu Tian, for Xu Tian, the Hidden God Pill is just a very ordinary pill that can be refined at any time, I thought that this simple request would not be refused, but I didn't expect Xu Tian to be so ignorant!
However, in the face of Gao Sen's momentum, Xu Wen's body sank a lot, but he didn't even raise his eyelids, and said in a salty and indifferent manner: "Seniors, let's put away these boring actions, I know better than anyone else how the Huiyuan Pill will help the Dark Mage! For you, I am the only alchemist who can help you reach the peak strength of the Nine Stars in a short period of time, and will not let you have any negative effects, you dare not kill me!" Xu Tian's tone was categorical.
Xu Tian secretly frowned and stroked the dust on his sleeve silently: "Young people, sometimes blind confidence is not necessarily a good thing. ”
"Thank you seniors for bothering, but the self-confidence of the younger generations has always been based on the right foundation! You won't kill me, you won't dare to kill me, because I am your unique secret weapon, killing me, you are self-destroying the Great Wall, no matter how you look at it, the younger generation will not think you are stupid. ”
"Self-destructing the Great Wall"
Gao Sen was stunned for a moment, and then his face turned cold.
"You are the first of the young generation who dare to talk to me in such a tone. "As a nine-star powerhouse, even if the other party is a member of the royal family of the Dark Empire, you don't need to use honorifics.
"Thank you for the compliment, hum~"
As soon as he spit out such a sentence, Xu Tian felt the weight on his shoulders increase in vain, and his body leaning forward suddenly fell! It became difficult to breathe, but fortunately he was in a cross-seated position, and if he was standing, this would have brought him to his knees and might even break his knees.
Gao Sen still stood in the shadow with a blank face, his eyes murderous! He didn't believe that such a young person's mind should really be practiced to such an extent, and he would not even be moved by the choice of life and death in front of him, and he would not reveal his true heart!
Unfortunately, he failed again.
Under Gao Sen's gaze, Xu Tian, whose face was flushed and was pressed to the point of being unable to move, showed a smile of slight mockery and disdain, and slowly stretched out his hand with difficulty and gestured on his arm and neck: "No matter how good an alchemist is, once he is injured, he will definitely not be able to refine medicine with peace of mind in a short period of time, even if he gets off the boat and calls for the furnace to be turned on again, it will take at least a few months to wait, forget it, if you still plan to continue, you can try to break my arm or neck!"
How could he not know in his heart that Gao Sen wanted to take this opportunity to force himself to submit! It was a pity! Xu was not a three-year-old child who would be willing to be a son of a cow if he was casually threatened? Xu Tian had also experienced many things, and he had already seen through life and death, and his human nature was even clearer.
Sure enough, as soon as the words fell, the weight and pressure on Xu Wen's body disappeared out of thin air, and the feeling of relief and ease from hell to heaven made Xu Tian quickly understand: he won!
"What happened just now is a joke, so let's do it, as long as you provide me with two bottles of camouflage elixir that lowers spiritual cultivation, I will help you solve a problem. ”
As a dark mage with nine-star strength, it was the first time for Gao Sen to feel such a headache for a teenager, but Gao Sen was not a vegetarian, so he immediately threw out the trump card in his hand.
Xu Wen smiled bitterly in his heart when he heard this! Knowing that he had won a game and instantly regained one percent for Gao Sen, the trouble was naturally the little witch 'Lan'er' who gave him a headache. After hesitating for a while, Xu Wen finally did not choose to continue the confrontation with Bodong, sighed resignedly, took a small porcelain bottle from the storage ring, played with it, and threw it to the person in the shadow: "Remember your promise." ”
"You're interested. ”
Xu Wen's happy actions and helpless expression of resignation finally made Gao Sen find a sense of accomplishment, smiled slightly, and then disappeared from the house out of thin air.
The fiery elemental swam around his whole body, and then he regained his dryness, and his mind calmed down, staring at the place where Bodong disappeared, Xu Wen groaned again, everything that should be fought for and what should be said has been expressed, although the Hidden God Pill was finally called out for 'free', but his purpose was also achieved.
But what made him feel strange was why Gao Sen suddenly wanted to use the Hidden God Pill? Asking a nine-star powerhouse to use the Hidden God Pill was definitely not an ordinary thing, Xu Tian finally walked out of the retreat house and went to the deck, he wanted to find out if it was someone from the Scarlet Alliance Royal Mercenary Regiment who chased after him!
As soon as he boarded the deck, the tense atmosphere outside the deck was tense and fully armed, and Xu Wen immediately realized that something was indeed very unusual, and asked the crew to find out the situation of the fish arrow mercenary group and all the crew members. Didn't see a trace of ordinary merchant and civilian ships for more than a month?
The three pirate groups?
Xu Tian felt as if he had been touched somewhere in his heart
Instinctively, some of the magical beasts and other related experiences related to the ocean in my memory came to mind.
Gao Sen's voice rang in his ears at this moment. Pulled him back from his trance: "Go back to your cabin and stay with me, you won't miss anything." ”
