Black sail

Chapter 74 LXXIII. Above the clouds
It was late December, the sun was scorching hot, but the sea breeze was bitingly cold.

This is not good news, but a bolt from the blue.

The count didn't disclose the identity of the mysterious person, not because he was worried that his group would detain her, but because he didn't dare to take the job.

Let alone the twelve thousand golden dragons, thinking about it now, even the twelve thousand golden dragons would have to reject it on the spot.

Black Sail has been pushed into the abyss, and all those involved in this matter probably will not end well.

But instead.

As long as it is used well, it can be used as a bargaining chip... to join the most terrifying power game in the Western Continent.

Fen looked like she was in the cold winter, with her hands propped on the railing of the ship, her throat rolling. After listening to Swann's description, let alone the big bosses of Port of Paradise, the royal family of the Principality of Bema was enough.

"Are you sure? Are you sure you read it right?"

Fern repeatedly confirmed that Swan may be dazzled due to an emergency.

"It's absolutely true! The silver scales... the horns... are exactly the same as the humanoid avatar recorded in the illustrated book."

Swann's tone was decisive.

"Keep your voice down, don't make any noise."

Fen immediately stopped drinking and kept it secret even from the key people on the ship.

Swann, who had quit smoking for several years, asked the pirates for one, lit it with a match tremblingly, and rolled it back and forth in his lungs with a deep hiss, which made him feel much better.

There were too many pirates on the deck manipulating the winches and rigging to control the sails, and the two came to the front end of the bow and stern lines.

"How to say?"

Swann couldn't decide whether to tell Li Site.

Fern also understood what Swann meant.

"You have just boarded the ship not long ago and have never seen Li Site's methods. He is someone who borrows money from loan sharks but also wants to follow the bets. He is far more ambitious than us. If you tell him the truth, I am also a little... unsure."

Even Fen was somewhat repelled, his face was extremely solemn and gloomy to the point of dripping water.

Oakes, who was at the helm, noticed the movement here. He had been on the ship for two years, and he had never seen Fern so flustered, something serious happened.

Oakes admired a one-eyed pirate very much and asked him to watch, and the recorder followed up at any time.

"Is something wrong?"

Oakes probably guessed it too.

"It's the identity of the mysterious man. The captain will tell everyone about his next destination, so you don't have to worry for now."

Fern said calmly, now that the news is spreading, it is easy to cause trouble.

"Okay, I believe you."

Oakes knew very well that Fern was one of the most reliable people on board, and although the matter of Swann's boarding started to be violent, it finally came to an end by convincing everyone.Others, even Li Si Te, would sometimes mess around. It was like this when they were in Secret Harbor. It would be easier for everyone to chop Marcus up together. Face is important, but it won’t get angry to that extent. , There was already an external aggression from the Thieves Guild. Li Site died in an internal competition for decision-making power.Li Si pulled on the unstable factor of Morrison, coupled with other means, in order to consolidate his own decision-making position, it can be seen that he has thought carefully.

Oakes is back at the helm. He has a poker face and is a workaholic.

"Then I'll tell Li Si Te."

Swann came to defect to Fen, and he had to agree with him in all positions, and he could act only after obtaining consent.

Fern thought about it.

"I will go with you."

Fen thinks that Li Si Te's strategy is very clever, fortunately they did not kill Gloria Caruso and the two, so that the two men lured her into Paradise Port.

Nautical interior.

"What kind of nonsense, sister, you can really say it. I am so old, I have never even held a girl's hand. It is unopened and brand new from the factory. Just point at some female holy spirit to show mercy."

Li Si Te is no longer as simple as being shameless, the two faces are like black holes, as long as they fall into the event horizon, no light can escape.

"Do you think I believe you? I think not only your crew, but also this ship, are all fooled by you."

Gloria was completely convinced, this guy was so hyped up, he could be as fake as he wanted, but someone said that acting is good for entertainment.

When Finn and Swann came in.

Li Si Te was fisting and drinking with Gloria.

The two of them are already in full swing, and Li Si Te knows that they are [-]% already, and now they are acquaintances. If they find an opportunity to upgrade their friendship, Goliath will not refuse with the roughness of an adventurer.

Swann hardened his fist.

Fen took a deep breath, Heifan was about to be fucking wiped out by the group, why are you still here trying to pick up girls?

Fern knocked hard on the door, making a noise.

"Fifteen twenty-five."

"Fifteen 22 ten."

"you drink."

Li Si Te taught Gloria a relatively new way of punching.

The two of them were having a great time and were not affected at all.

"I'm sorry, but can I borrow some time from the Captain?"

Fen had to walk to the long table and slammed the table twice.

"Oh, please, go about your business."

Gloria was also quite savvy, and stood up to leave.

"Oh, why are you busy? What can happen on this broken ship? Our friendship needs to be upgraded."

Li Site said shamelessly.

"There's still time, by the way, I forgot to say, please ask your crew not to harass me, I don't like men."

After Gloria finished speaking, she left the nautical room without looking back, and closed the door quite politely.

Li Site was petrified in an instant. He doesn't like men...it means lace, right? Then what's the use of wasting so much time on me?
He turned into a desktop cleaning master on the spot, sweeping away all the pots and pans on the table.

"Say it early, bastard!"

Li Site is numb, but it doesn't matter, even if it is crooked, I, Li Xunhuan, have to straighten it out.

Seeing Fen sitting upright, Li Si Te also knew that the big one was coming, now is not the time to pick up girls, anyway, there are still six Kagome and six platycodon.

Swann leaned over to the door to watch the wind in case someone eavesdropped. There were only three people in the nautical room, and the others were busy.

"Things are going pretty well."

Li Si Te lit a cigarette and smoked. Paradise Port was far away, and it would take more than ten days to get there, but naturally the sooner the matter is done, the better.

"It's a dragon."

Fin gets right to the point, no nonsense.

"What the hell? The bathing center is here, right? What kind of foot bath is there?"

Li Si Te didn't understand the meaning, so he didn't think about it.

"I mean...the physical dragon."

Fen thought that sooner or later she would be driven mad by Li Si Te.

"You made me laugh, not physically, but magically? It's a godsend."

Li Si Te was amused, there is also a saying of a dragon on the Western Continent, but the dragon code here refers to imperial-level services, not a set of procedures.

I simply don’t dare to speculate in such a terrifying direction.

Fin closed her eyes.

"Swann, tell me!"

Fern was taken aback.

"I went to their room and stunned the woman. That dose could have killed several cows, but the monster was just asleep. I unmask her. It's similar to what I saw in the illustration , with silver dragon horns, which should have been covered up by spells before, but they were exposed after falling asleep, and there are shining dragon scales under the eyes on both sides, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with that terrifying energy aura."

Swann believed in his own eyesight.

"In this way, it makes perfect sense. The Eternal Sect regards the Dragon Lord as the only true dragon, and the existence of other dragons is blasphemy, ushering in a dispute between the sects. Dragon blood can also pose a threat to the emperor. All the questions... were solved in a jiffy. The letter found by Swan mentioned that it would be delivered to the people of Lostra at the Port of Paradise at the end of thirteenth, and it would become Lostra's sharp weapon against the emperor. With these theories as evidence, it is very Eighty-nine times, you can’t be wrong.”

Fen tapped two fingers on the table, much faster than before, and he was also a little panicked.

Li Site held it in for a long time, and the cigarette fell to the ground.

In the end, only two words were uttered.

"Fuck..."
