Lord of the Mysteries: Yao Guang

Chapter 281 Unexpected Conflict

When Vika woke up, he always felt that something was wrong in the room.

The cold wind from the window hit his face in gusts, causing Vika to sniff hard at his itchy nose and sneeze.

He subconsciously glanced at the table, the purse containing the gold coins was still there, so it didn't matter, as long as it didn't arouse the anger of the mysterious lady, even if the hotel was haunted, he had nothing to do with it.

But that lady might be more like a ghost than a ghost...

Vika's sleepy thoughts were interrupted by the knock on the door. He rushed out of bed and slammed on the door with a "boom".

Opening a crack in the door, Valery's disgusted eyes came in from the outside: "You slept yourself on the floor? Why is there such a big commotion."

"No, nothing! Everything is normal!" Vika replied loudly.

Esther waved her hand and said something urgent: "When you get up, go to the public bathroom to wash up. If you sleep again, you will miss lunch."

"Ah, I'm going right now."

Esther then returned to her room, sat down at the head of the bed, and looked out the window where the sun was warm.

Both Vika and Mateo are an experiment she wants to do, and the heart-to-heart talk last night was more of an excuse to understand and deepen.

In fact, there is a better candidate, but it is a pity that this place is too far away from Tingen.Traveling through the spirit world affects both Zoya and me at the same time, and will worsen the condition of my physical and spiritual bodies, otherwise Admisor would definitely be happy to help me with this small favor.

Forget about Aaron, he is a student of the "Queen of Mysteries", and asking him to do this will easily attract Bernadette's attention and affect the transaction between the two parties regarding the "Card of Blasphemy".

Esther rubbed the center of her right eyebrow, feeling a momentary fear of her too indifferent attitude.

Even if she realized that she was too indifferent, she couldn't hesitate, let alone shrink back, otherwise Zoya might become active again at any time, replacing her consciousness.

"Would it be better if I could quietly be an 'ordinary person' for the rest of my life?"

Alone in the room, she received no answer to her questions.

The parasitic Valerie took the ready Vika to the street.Since the hotel she stayed at last night was really unappetizing, she found a restaurant that looked cleaner when she was having lunch.

The door of this store is very fancy, and the price is as fancy as the decoration, but the taste is not as good as Esther imagined, it can only be said to be barely passable, no wonder there are not many customers in the store.

Vika's appetite is not as big as last night, but she still eats any dish with gusto.It seems that the conditions on their pirate ship are very ordinary, so that Vika now has the opportunity to feast, and he always wants to eat food for two people.

There was a deep-fried whale steak and mead in front of Valery. He grabbed a piece of fried shortbread and bit down the full of shredded cheese, potato dices and minced fish.

Eating here is like eating without wine. The waiter repeatedly recommended "good imported wine" and never mentioned the cheapest Nepos.

Even Vika could see this carefulness, Esther decided on mead with a relatively low alcohol content, and then simply threw the ordering task to Vika, and finally he ordered some common dishes of Nass.

After eating the shortbread in his hand, Valery wiped the corner of his mouth with a tablecloth: "Shouldn't 'Axe' come to Nass often? How come you don't have a restaurant to recommend?"

When Vika heard the other party's sudden question, she anxiously swallowed the mixed vegetable soup in her mouth and almost choked on the carrot chunks: "Ahem, cough, cough, I don't have many opportunities to eat in serious restaurants."

"Is there no money?"

"Don't you understand...Although I can make money, I have only been on the ship for more than two years. I don't have any qualifications at all, and I don't get any points."

"That's right, otherwise you guys wouldn't look so shabby."

Esther couldn't help but think of Danitz, the way he revealed his inheritance when he was seriously injured, he had already left Andrew's pocket a few blocks away.

Vika took a sip of mead, not quite used to such a soft and sweet alcoholic drink, and frowned slightly: "All the people with guns have landed on the island. Although my revolver is cheap, it costs a lot. Lost most of my savings, not to mention having to refill the bullets."

Valery picked up another piece of pastry: "I forgot to tell you, the potion formula I gave you is also very expensive."

Vika, who was enjoying the food happily, immediately became depressed: "I'm not surprised. I heard Pedro complain about these things in private, but..."

"I didn't expect that I would one day become a Extraordinary." Vika drank all the mead at the bottom of the glass, trying not to look too out of shape.

"It's not even close," Esther poked the fried whale steak with her fork. "It will take a lot of time to collect the materials, so we have to divert to Bayam. There are many trading places there, which is good for you. It is also easier to integrate. You are too conspicuous in Nas, and it is easy to be discovered by your 'old colleagues', isn't it?"

Vika scratched his head: "I didn't expect that after going around for the last time, I would go back again."

"Is there a feeling of returning to the starting point?"

"No, my mentality is completely different. In the past, I would not have been happy to return to Bayam, but now I am very excited. Maybe it's not because of this honey bar? The waiter said that its alcohol content is not very high..."

Esther chuckled lightly, and Valery cut the fried whale steak on the plate without looking at Vika's eyes that were shining with anticipation: "No, this degree is far worse than Nipos, it's just that you are too happy. "Vika giggled twice and looked at Valery's indifferent expression: "I really have to say, you are easier to get along with than I thought."

Esther twitched her mouth: "Otherwise? If it wasn't for this group of people who showed their own malice during the communication, I don't have to do it. I'm sorry for scaring you so much yesterday. We can communicate freely now, I Nor is it a 'demon'."

Because I am a "thief", every sequence is like a mountain.Esther added in her mind.

"I am very grateful to you." Vika sat up straight and said solemnly.

Esther looked at Vika quietly, and pointed to the food on the table: "Your soup is getting cold, and it won't taste good when it's cold."

"No, cold soup is also Feysac's specialty, you can try it next time." Vika retorted seriously.

"There's no need to say honorifics to me. It can be seen that you are not worried about me anymore, and you are so bold that you start to refute..."

-

After leaving the restaurant, Esther asked Vika if he knew any second-hand dealers, the kind that collect things. Valery, Pedro and Andrew's guns were all on her.

Esther has no intention of becoming a three-gunner, and her extraordinary ability is not suitable for carrying too many things. It is better to sell them directly and exchange them for some actual gold coins to expand the small treasury.

Vika patted his chest: "Of course I know this. I have seen several underground businessmen in Nas. But..."

"But what?"

"Can you leave Andrew's for me?" Vika pointed to himself with a smile, "You can replace my broken revolver. It's too old, and sometimes it's easy to get stuck."

"No problem, just sell yours together at that time."

Vika touched the worn-out old gun in his waistband: "Then let's go quickly. That place is close to the dock area. It's quite a distance from here."

Esther hails a rental carriage, and the two of them sat for nearly an hour before arriving at the location Vika told the driver.

As Esther expected, looking at the sign outside, this was another pub.

Even though it was just afternoon, there were quite a few people in the bar, more than half of the tables were occupied by people, they were clamoring with beer glasses, and they were all dressed as pirates.

Esther pushed the door open first, and Vika followed behind.

Valery looked at the image of a tough guy with a bald head, but he was wrapped in a red cloak so bright that it almost dripped blood, and there was a huge sunflower tattooed on his back.This rather conflicting collocation instantly attracted the attention of most people here.

Vika, who came in the last step, suddenly turned pale. He didn't dare to touch Valery's cloak, so he could only whisper, "Hurry up, let's go, we came at such an unfortunate time! It's best to get out quickly..."

Another person interrupted Vika's thoughts, and slammed the wine glass on the table with a "bang", spilling a lot of Lie Langqi from the glass.

As he stood up slowly, the rest of the pirates didn't sit down any more, and they got up one after another, with malicious smiles on their faces.

Only the man holding a goblet by the bar looked indifferent. He lifted up the wide brim of his fisherman hat with the cup, and glanced at the two newcomers by the door.The man's eyes lingered on Valery's cloak and face for a long time, and the dangling lines between his brows became deeper and deeper.

The man who was obviously the leader clapped his hands hard twice, looked around, saw that everyone was focusing on him, and then greeted the two people by the door loudly:

"Valery, Vika, this really surprised me! Why didn't you see Andrew, don't you both like to go around behind his ass?"

Valery's face was full of indifference, but Esther was smacking her lips in her heart, even a little excited: "He has appeared, it is a typical stage for a third-rate villain to appear!"From their words to their attitude, this group of people want to gather together to fight and bully the minority, all of which are vividly performed!
Vika's cheeks became even paler, and he explained in a low voice: "That's the first mate Levjet on our ship. Seeing him like this, it is obvious that he has been appointed as the captain. We still..."

Valery looked unruly when he spoke, and did not deliberately lower his voice: "Do we know them? Wake up, Vika, there is no need to deal with a guy whose fists are bigger than his brains."

Levget's face immediately darkened: "Who are you talking about!?"

"Whoever answers is talking, and I don't know you, so why are there people rushing to scold you?" Valery raised his eyebrows, looking much more arrogant than Levjet who led a group of pirates.

"You! Valery, I still don't know who you are? A good-for-nothing and who are you pretending to be ruthless here!?"

Valery blew a whistle, and Levjet punched the table hard, leaving half of the glass of Liranzi completely poured down on the table.

The dripping of the wine fell on the ground, which was very clear in the silent tavern.

So the man sitting at the bar spoke, his voice had a strange majesty:
"If you want to fight, get out, let you die outside."

　Happy Chinese Valentine's Day, but no more updates.

　　The Hungry Ghost Festival will be updated.
