Mystery: Lucky One

"No." Cattleya responded without hesitation.

Don't say that she really doesn't have the extraordinary characteristics of "Druid". Even if she does, she will answer no at this moment.

...No, forget it. It would be even worse if Miss Fate found out that I was lying.

At this moment, Cattleya suddenly felt fortunate that she really did not have the extraordinary characteristics of a "Druid".

But this is not all good news, because here stands the "world", and here stands the powerful and crazy adventurer Gehrman Sparrow.

After receiving Cattleya's denial, Frank Li was not disappointed. He immediately looked at Gehrman Sparrow and asked:
"Mr. Sparrow, if I want to entrust you to help me find a copy of the extraordinary characteristics of 'Druid', what price do I need to pay?"

What price? No price will do... Klein glanced at Alice and calmly gave the answer:
"Give her a beating."

The transaction stopped here, because when Alice jumped up in anger and grabbed Klein to hit him, she suddenly stopped.

A scene appeared before her eyes. Alice saw a hand resting on the dark blue, almost black water, with a small but delicate boat lying in the palm.

The overall shape of the ship was like a crescent moon. There were three rows of cannons arranged in an orderly manner on the side of the ship. There was also a sail on the ship with a black tombstone painted on it.

The boat was very small, occupying only a small part of the palm, which made the palm look huge. After the hand carried the boat on the dark blue and almost black water for a while, another boat appeared from the front.

The ship was much larger than the one floating in the palm of her hand, but not as big as her palm. But it was not this that made Alice notice the ship. She immediately recognized the high-raised sail - it was the "Future"!
What a strange scene...

Alice let go of Klein with a frown and looked around. Cattleya and Klein both noticed something was wrong. They looked at Alice but did not interrupt her.

Frank Lee also noticed that the atmosphere was wrong, and his attention was temporarily diverted from other things. In the silence, Alice saw a huge monster gradually emerging from the darkness.

It was a black ship that was nearly two hundred meters long and at least five stories high.

"Death call..." A solemn voice sounded. Alice turned her head and found it was Frank Lee who was immersed in sadness just now.

The first mate, who had a bounty of 7000 pounds, dropped the fish in his hand and stood up. Alice saw that his muscles were tense, as if he would attack at any time.

Cattleya's expression was equally solemn. He stared in the direction of the "Death Announcement" without saying a word.

Woo!
A low horn sounded, and the sailors in the cabin didn't even bother to put on their clothes. They either rushed to the nearest gun muzzle or came to the deck.

However, before they could react further, the "Death Announcement" turned on its own and slowly moved away from their sight.

"...?"

Everyone looked at each other, and Alice asked Cattleya:
"Do you want to ask the others to go back and get dressed?"

Everyone finally woke up from their dream. Cattleya looked at Alice solemnly and thanked her:

"Thanks you……"

Alice interrupted her:
“I didn’t do anything.

"If you must say something, you should thank him... or someone on his ship who is spiritually sharp enough."

After a pause, Alice added:
"When we were in Nass, we met Gilchias, the second mate of the Death Announcement, and he ran away as if he had seen a ghost.

"Well, maybe it's because I called him 9500 pounds... Oh no, actually 9500 pounds may not buy what I want, and his captain's 10 pounds is more tempting...

"Hey, wait a minute."

Alice suddenly remembered something and turned to Frank Lee who was standing there in a daze: "Normally speaking, you can only claim the bounty once...

“Can you plant part of a corpse and grow a whole corpse?
"This way I can go to different places to collect more bounties!"

Is she short of money?
Cattleya looked at Alice hesitantly, and finally turned her gaze to the other sailors who had not yet had time to disperse. The sailors who were watching ran away at once, leaving the place to the four of them.

"Are you short of money?" Frank Lee asked the question that Cattleya wanted to ask.

Alice scratched her head and explained:
"how to say……

"That is, under normal circumstances, if a person drinks potions and acts as usual, by the time he is promoted to a demigod or even an angel, he should already have a large enough force under his command, or he should have been cultivated by a large force.

"In this case, they can completely let their own forces handle some trivial matters, but, but I..."

She let out a long sigh.

Frank Lee seemed to understand what Alice said, but also seemed not to understand. He asked Alice:

“Is there any difference between a completely mythical creature, a mythical creature in the process of transformation, and an ordinary person?

"Can you give me some of your flesh and blood so I can study it?"

Alice took a half step back, turned to look at Cattleya, and warned solemnly:
"Keep an eye on him and don't let him get promoted."

Cattleya responded silently, "Okay," and for a moment she couldn't tell whether she should be happy or not.

This was a rejection. Frank Lee looked extremely disappointed. In order to divert attention, he talked about the "death call":

“By the way, there have been many rumors regarding the strength of the ‘Undying King’.

"Some say he is indeed a demigod, while others say he is only at Sequence 5, and only reached Sequence 4 with the help of the Death Announcement ship.

"But no matter what, he has lived long enough. Uh... do you think that if I cross him with my fish, can I increase their life span?"

Frank Lee suddenly had a new inspiration.

Alice, who was matching Frank Lee's description of the "Death Alert" with the revelation scene just now, fell into deep thought.

No, him, huh???

Doesn't he have any research bottleneck at all?
Cattleya remained silent. In the silence, Klein offered reliable advice:

"You can discuss this matter with him."

Frank Lee was stunned for a moment, then sighed in frustration:

"He won't agree to this. He'll just plant me in the ground."

Hearing this, Alice finally couldn't help it. She turned to look at Frank Lee and asked in a very confused tone:

"Aren't you worried that I'll plant you in the soil?

"Does my temper seem better than that of the 'Undying King' Agaritu?" (End of this chapter)
