Mystery: Good Witch

Chapter 438 Pirates, see pirates again

Sauron family?

Angel was somewhat familiar with this name. She quickly recalled the evil spirit in Backlund who claimed to have died in the Fourth Age. One of the three bloods needed to help it escape was from the descendants of Sauron!

I remember that the Sauron family is a noble of Intis and masters the magic potion of the "Hunter" path. This is consistent with what Elaine said... Angel thought about it, nodded, and motioned for the other party to continue.

"The story of how I came to the sea to trade is consistent with what I just said, but the person who attacked my ship and kidnapped me was not an ordinary pirate, but Tracy, who was just the 'Sick Girl' at the time. She only had one ship at the time, but My own strength is about the same as it is now. I only had Sequence 8 at that time, and together with the other sailors on the ship, I couldn’t do anything to her...

"She didn't kill indiscriminately. She only robbed the cargo and even left enough food and water for the crew. The price was my surrender..."

Speaking of this, a trace of hatred or nostalgia appeared on Elaine's face.

"So, what's the situation between you and her now?"

Angel continued to ask.

"What happened? She forced me!" Elaine almost jumped up from the sofa as if her tail was stepped on, her red hair flying, "First she threatened me with the freedom of the crew, then with my own life, and finally she said she would let her My family knows everything... My father's debt has not been paid off, so I can't die... And I think, anyway, she is a woman anyway, and she can't really do anything to me..."

She weakly fell back on the sofa and covered her red face.

I just want to ask why you have been locked up on the boat... And it’s hard for me to believe that your expression and reaction are forced, Ms. Elaine... Angel smiled secretly, wondering whether all of this was "illness" "Will" do it for the sake of acting, to make others suffer.

"Tell me about Lieutenant General Tracy, everything about her."

Seeing Elaine covering her face in despair and not moving for a long time, Angel could only give a verbal reminder.

"Like you, she can control enemies with invisible threads, and is good at curses, frost, and black flames..."

Elaine sniffed, rubbed her face to let the blush fade away, and then introduced Tracy's fighting style.

It is indeed the Witch of Pain. Of course, the Sequence 4 Despair can also use all abilities, but it is unlikely that she is a demigod, otherwise she would not be ranked among the ranks of pirate generals, and the bounty is pitifully low... ...After Angel finished listening, he continued to ask:

"Where are her helpers? First mate, second mate, bosun? What magical items do they have on them?"

"She...she has a diamond-encrusted bracelet that can provide powerful defense, making it difficult for ordinary attacks to threaten her." Angel's series of questions surprised Elaine. She hesitated, and finally said what happened to Tracy. "As for the other members, I don't know much about it. When she robbed my ship, she only had a small pirate ship, and she was surrounded by fierce pirates, but she had never seen an extraordinary person. Later she became a 'Pirate General'" , let alone let me come into contact with the battle and be stained with blood, she said, just leave everything to her..."

What kind of romantic novel hero... Could this Tracy have really fallen in love with Elaine? She was too involved in the role? But she is also a woman, at least for now.

Or maybe Tracy, who was promoted from a male assassin, still retains her original sexual orientation and prefers women to men, so she is reluctant to leave Elaine, and even plays the role of hiding in the golden house, chasing her away from her...

Angel cursed, suddenly thinking of his experience in this world, and his face began to heat up.

Am I too happy-go-lucky in comparison?

However, according to the theory of modern medicine, body hormones are the reason that affects orientation, and, and... other witches are like this, Servilia, Laura, Triss... No, Triss is a little different...

Her mind was a little confused and her eyes were out of focus, which made the red-haired Elaine full of confusion. She didn't know why her answer made this beautiful woman who was Sequence 5 like Tracy look dull.

"So, when you asked about Tracy, were you trying to deal with her?"

After a moment, Elaine asked cautiously, with a hint of worry in her tone that she didn't even notice.

"Well, of course not. I'm not interested in a life-and-death fight between people of the same rank." Angel was awakened by her, coughed slightly, and continued, "And I know your worries. Do you think other people on the ship will react after seeing you?" I will sell you to Tracy in exchange for payment, but I am a pirate hunter and will not help her. You can stay with me for a few days until you go ashore."

"But the premise is to identify who is the real owner. For example, you sleep in the living room."

Angel's answer left Elaine stunned.

Could it be that he had aroused the dissatisfaction of this powerful extraordinary person because he just said that he should sleep in the living room?

Thinking of the disparity in strength between the two parties, she wisely decided not to mention the matter again and obediently regarded the living room as her temporary home.

Seeing that Elaine had no objection, Angel took out a small glass bottle from the suitcase in the bedroom and handed it to her.

"Take a vial of your own blood."

The first purpose is to serve as a final deterrent to prevent this hunter with rich escape experience from running away again; the second purpose is naturally to leave some blood of "direct descendants of the Sauron family", although it will not be used to rescue the suspicious person. evil spirits, but be prepared.

Moreover, you may not be their direct descendant. After all, the family in the Fourth Age has existed so far, and the bloodline should have faded long ago, and they themselves may not be able to tell the difference...

Watching the red-haired Elaine Soren take out the dagger without saying a word, cut a wound on her hand decisively, and fill it with a whole bottle of dark red blood. Angel took it with satisfaction and tied it with frost and silk thread. In a simple ritual, this bottle of blood was sealed.

"You have been with Tracy for so long. You should know the role of blood in the hands of a witch. I can use it to track you and even kill you. You'd better give up the idea of ​​resisting and escaping. Well, as long as you Just obey your orders quietly, I'm not some murderous pirate."

Angel repeated what the other person said when they first met, and carefully put the glass bottle away.

"She has never done this before..."

Elaine puffed up her mouth and said softly.

"That's because she likes you, and I, um... am more normal." Halfway through his words, Angel felt something was wrong. He paused for a moment before continuing, "I'll help you get some food. You're here, don't Feel free to move around.”

It ended up being a fuss for a long time, and in the end I went to help her solve the dinner problem. What was the difference between this and the beginning... Angel put on the "Crazy Ring" again, went to the first-class restaurant, and ordered two simple dinners. With a glass of low-alcohol fruit wine fermented from Bayam’s local fruits, I returned to my suite with the dinner plate in hand.

Elaine was still sitting on the sofa in the living room, seemingly giving up all active actions and just waiting passively, which made Angel wonder whether the short battle just now had too much impact on her. Smelling the fragrant Fenebaud pasta, cheese-baked chicken and roasted mushrooms, she turned her eyes here, swallowed involuntarily, and a trace of expectation appeared in her eyes.

"Change into some clean clothes, wear one of mine, and then come over and have dinner."

Looking at this unlucky woman, Angel also lost his mind to continue teasing and bullying her, taking the opportunity to digest the potion, and ordered in a low voice.

After Elaine changed out of her soaked clothes and put on the spare clothes in Angel's luggage, she sat at the table and started to devour the two dinners. Angel sat in the corner, thinking about how to deal with this member of the Sauron family. female.

The aristocratic system of Intis has nothing to do with her, and naturally she will not send back this poor person who finally escaped from the clutches of the pirates. Then she can only wait for her to go home by herself after landing... But "Lieutenant General Illness" "Obviously he attaches great importance to Elaine, and even personally commanded the flagship "Black Death" to come near Bayam, risking being surrounded by the Navy and the Church of Storms to find her whereabouts. She may not be able to successfully return to the Northern Continent...

"What are your plans next?"

Seeing that Elaine had finished most of the food, she slowed down her eating speed and asked smoothly.

"Of course I'm going home. I've been missing for a few months. I wonder if my father will be worried... Well, I'm afraid he won't even care about my whereabouts, but I still have to pay off the debt so that the family can have a chance to get rid of the current situation. fate."

Elaine's eyes were a little straight and she answered slowly.

If it weren't for the red noodle sauce hanging on the corner of her mouth, her speech coupled with her somewhat heroic face should have fascinated many people, well, including "Lieutenant General Disease"...

"Then when you get to Zhongcheng Island, you can find a boat to go back to. I heard that Tracy's 'Black Death' has arrived nearby, so be careful."

Angel still reminded her to prevent this poor man who had been captured several times from being "caught" again.

"Of course, I will never be...wait, to the Middle Island? Isn't this 'Blue Mountain Rose' going to Bayam? I have seen it on my own ship!"

Elaine took a sip of fruit wine and replied, but suddenly she was stunned.

"It does go back and forth between Bayam and Zhongcheng Island, but now it's going to the other side." Angel said with a smile on his lips again, "If you don't want to be a stowaway again, or find someone in another suite, Passengers who are not so friendly can find a way for me to be generous and donate some travel expenses to you."

bang-

The fork in the red-haired lady's hand fell into the dinner plate, making a crisp sound.

----

Since last night's complete defeat in actions and words, Elaine has become much more honest. She borrowed Angel's women's wide-brimmed hat, tied up her iconic red hair, covered it with the hat, and tried to leave the suite. to the dining room and deck.

Soon, the timid red-haired lady discovered that no one paid attention to her uninvited guest. Even if they looked at her, they only appreciated the beautiful woman's kind gaze, rather than treating her as a commodity that could be sold to the pirate general.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that "Vice Admiral Sickness" is unable to issue a wanted warrant. If Angel appears on this ship in his true form, it may not take long for the observant passengers to recognize him, although they may not dare to look at the 6000-pound item. The Extraordinary who was able to kill the Bishop of the Church of Storms did it, but he still had the courage to report it to the Church immediately after getting off the ship and share part of the bounty.

Therefore, Angel always wore the "Crazy Ring" when he went out, showing off his round face with freckles and medium black hair that only appeared in Backlund, which puzzled Elaine who was following him.

"I'm really curious as to why you use magical items to hide your appearance. If I had your appearance, I would definitely want everyone to know it."

Sitting by the window with a sea view, Elaine whispered while carefully cutting the steak into small strips.

"Your appearance has already brought you Tracey's attention. Don't you still know the consequences of exposing yourself casually outside? Besides, I have a small misunderstanding with the Church of Storms. Moderate disguise is not good for the two of us. It’s all a good thing.”

Angel chuckled and replied. She had already finished the lunch in front of her and looked out the window at the boundless sea, trying to observe the islands near the water antenna.

The Blue Mountain Rose had now sailed halfway through its voyage, and some small rocks and islands began to appear around it. She always felt that the "Gazeer" might be hiding among them, and she wanted to find clues through visual inspection.

Of course, these efforts have yielded nothing. I am afraid that only by reaching Zhongcheng Island and asking the local residents can we gain anything.

but……

Angel was looking away in disappointment when he suddenly noticed a black sail appearing on the sea far away, gradually getting larger and closer at a speed visible to the naked eye.

That is?

She squinted her eyes to identify it carefully, and soon discovered that under the sail was a completely black ship with a beautiful streamline shape. There were two rows of holes on the side of the ship. There was no doubt that there were powerful naval guns inside.

"Do you recognize that ship?"

Angel asked quietly after poking the shoulder of Elaine who was working hard and asking her to look out the window.

Hunter Path also had excellent eyesight. Elaine quickly spotted the rapidly approaching black ship, and her face turned pale.

"Smaller than the Black Death, it should be the 'Citybreaker', the fastest warship in Tracy's fleet. It is on the interception route!"

hum-

A long whistle sounded overhead, and the "Blue Mountain Rose" sounded the alarm, confirming Elaine's guess.
