387 Twilight Mist
"Ah, dear Mr. Sean, are you back at last?" At the end of the night, most of the merchant ships were gone—most of them were speculators, but according to the current situation in this sea, speculation that did not know whether to live or die was likely to cost a small life, and such a loss-making business would certainly not be done.
But the merchant ship that Penny drove would not sail away at this time, and Fina sat in the cabin, looking at the wizard who appeared on the other side of the cabin, wrapped in the quilt in a puff, and greeting in her mouth, but her tone was sour.
She looked at the wizard with exasperation on her face, snorting.
"Now is not the time to play with the eldest lady's temper. The wizard frowned, not knowing how to talk to her about his future plans.
He had done great things in the port of Calant that night, but he did not let the captain, who had some surname, know about it, and he did not know how to speak for a while.
"Of course it's not the time, and I don't want to disturb the good times you have with your old lover. Fina puffed out her cheeks and snorted, "I really blamed you at first, and thought you were so hungry that even a married woman would have to do it." ”
Her tone softened, but her words were full of thorns.
Penny immediately touched his forehead, his mind a little confused.
"I was so naïve to have a child. Fina slapped her chest twice, then opened her eyes and sarcastically said, "Mr. Sean, in what capacity do you be her lover?
She counted the identities that the wizard had used with her fingers, deliberately making the wizard feel ashamed, but when she saw Penny's helpless expression, she was suddenly deflated.
The guy didn't hear the sarcasm and the implicit accusations in her words at all, or rather, he pretended to ignore them—that is, he didn't care about her mood at all.
Penny's mind was confused for a while, and then she reacted, and it seemed that she had figured out his relationship with Rikita without his knowledge.
"Forget it, it seems that you don't need me to get in the way. An irrepressible anger made Fina stand up indignantly and walked out of the cabin: "I'd better not disturb your good time with your old flame." ”
She walked out of the cabin without looking back, deaf to the wizard's call, but was about to walk out of the room when she was grabbed by the wizard.
"Wait. Penny whispered in her ear, "I haven't thanked you yet, thank you for helping me in the square." ”
After a little consideration, Penny also understood that Fina probably let the elder control her body and followed him and Rikita for a night, so she could know these things, so that the councilor's teleportation was about to escape when he was suddenly interrupted by an anti-magic force field, allowing Penny to successfully kill him, most likely because Fina secretly helped.
"How good it would be for you to die there. Fina pursed her mouth, snorted twice with her eyes closed, and closed her nose one by one, although she was still angry, but being dragged by the wizard, plus this thank you, the anger was not so overflowing.
Even if he still didn't say anything, Penny could still see the wavering stance revealed by Fina's actions, and he didn't say much, just hoping to wait for the young lady to dissipate herself.
However, Miss Fina's heart did not stop surging, and she was still able to hear the conversation between Penny and Rekita through her auditory sight, and while feeling angry and sad, she also began to wonder what was the point of maintaining an unclear relationship with the wizard like this.
"Mr. Sean, what do you think of me?"
She lowered her head and asked softly, sighing in her tone, then lifted her chin slightly so that the wizard could see the complicated look on her face.
Perceiving that there was an extremely serious attitude behind this question, Penny was not perfunctory, he thought for a moment and looked into Fina's eyes: "Miss Fina, do you like me?"
Hearing this rhetorical question, a burst of joy broke through Fina - this was the first time that a wizard had made the topic clear.
Two blushes quickly appeared on her cheeks, and she was originally cheerful and generous, but at this time, she felt unspeakable because of a shyness, but she still nodded and bravely admitted this feeling.
"But you know, I can't give you what you need. The wizard shook his head, took away Fina's somewhat stiff hand, and stroked her hair, "So you have to think about it." ”
Miss Captain's eyes turned red, she lowered her head again, biting her lip, her heart full of hesitation and sorrow.
Of course she knew what the wizard meant, and it was impossible for this man to drive away all the wives and lovers who had become a given, and she could not make such an impudent request, and if Penny did do it to please her, Fina who knew a few things about Shecole Lanivica would probably stay away from the wizard.
Lack of affection will make her feel more uneasy than a flowery turnip.
But her self-esteem and reserve made her unacceptable, and she became a member of this man's lover—just as the wizard thought.
"So, please don't think too much about it, and after helping the elder complete his task with the grave keeper, think about other things. The wizard walked to the window, looked out at the water, and said without looking back, "Maybe the situation will change when the time comes, and you may change your mind." ”
Change one's mind?
Fina stared at Penny's back with trembling lips, should she find someone else who could make her heart flutter, or should she tolerate this guy's lustful nature?
A little discouraged, she finally ran out of the cabin with the sound of hurried and heavy footsteps.
...... Although there were such and such accidents, Penny felt that at the beginning of the implementation of the Moon Sea Plan, it still received certain results.
Although he has agreed with the crew of this ship to go to the Moon Sea, if he doesn't leave now, when he reaches the Strait of Lis, he crashes headlong into the whirlpool of chaos, but he can't go.
The crew didn't know about the wizard's plan, and even if they did, they wouldn't die for the wizard, and Penny wouldn't let them know about it, so they had to settle them first.
If this ship were to be abandoned, it would inevitably arouse the suspicion of the Santarins - why did Dan Flynn lose even the merchant ship loaded with goods if he wanted to make money by reselling goods during the war?
So Penny ordered the ship to sail to the shores of Comanso and settle down, awaiting his next order, and the entire crew of the ship was heavily employed by the Dan Linton family, and as long as it was not for the unreasonable demand of letting them die of their own lives, they would still concentrate on complying with it, so that the wizard was properly arranged.
At the same time, he took advantage of the middle of the night to secretly stun one of Captain Linto's men, used a spell to stun him, and after some questioning, confirmed the real surnames of the group of Santarin envoys, and then put them back after processing the memories of this person.
Knowing that Captain Linto was indeed the messenger of the Santarin Society, Penny was half relieved, and after the arrangement was completed, the two boats arrived together at a small fishing village called 'Twilight Mist' on the coast of Comanso.
The whole country of Comanso is covered by a large area of forests, inhabited by the largest elven community in the continent of Faeron, while some fishing villages in the coastal area have little to do with elves, and some port villages that have close contact with the outside world are mostly settled by human fleets that often pass by.
This was the case in this little fishing village, where the big ship that had hastily escaped from the port of Calant came to rest, and then Penny found that there were other ships that had already stopped in the humble harbor outside the fishing village, and the crews of those ships, though of different colors, had some similar temperament, and when they saw Linto, they talked and argued for a while as if they were acquaintances, and glanced at the big ship that seemed to be unsupposed to be on the shore.
Penny was not surprised, since Linto had set his destination here, someone must have answered him, and there were three large ships parked here, and with Linto's boat, the total number of sailors was about two hundred, which was already a medium-sized fleet.
As soon as Penny's ship landed, the stern was blocked by three boats, and a group of sailors below also surrounded him with various weapons.
"Calm down, don't be rude!" Lintor rushed over, waving his hand at the sailors, and at the same time beckoning to the wizard, "Mr. Flynn, this is our territory, you can rest assured." ”
"Reassured?" the wizard looked at the other three people next to Linto, the expressions on the faces of the two men and a woman did not make him feel any kindness.
Without Linto's introduction, the wizard could have guessed that they were probably the heads of these ships.
"Who is this man, Linto?" asked the only woman among them, who was dressed in a neat and simple garment, and hung some gold and silver ornaments, which were not ornate - it seemed that she was only announcing her special status to others, and several people around her, including Linto, stood slightly behind her, with her as the center, which showed that this woman was the leader of these people.
Having reached this conclusion, Penny took a closer look at the man, who was not pretty, with clear traces of wind and frost on his complexion, his expression and decoration were generally capable and decisive, and he was more than thirty years old, which should not be underestimated.
"This is Mr. Dan Flynn, a merchant from Stardome City. Captain Linto explained to the woman the origin of a wizard who even he did not know the truth or falsehood, "He has a desire to help us in our operations here, Lord Jenner. ”
"A small merchant, help?" the woman named Jenna looked at the wizard with her eyebrows raised, her domineering posture accentuating her tall figure, "Captain Linto, you probably forgot our plan to not allow idlers to come near here, and besides, why do you trust him?"
She raised her hand, and the Santarim soldiers surrounding Penny's merchant ship drew their weapons.
Penny twitched the corners of her mouth and looked at the woman named Jenner.
He received several pairs of stares with interest and suspicion, which grew even stronger as Captain Lintor said the next sentence, and at the same time filled with a hint of consternation.
Captain Linto put it this way: "I think we ought to believe this gentleman, Lord Jenna, for six councillors in power of Port Carrante died at his hands just last night. ”
