Mithril Throne of Forgotten Realms

"Ah? What do you mean it can't be repaired!?"

At this time, the bearded captain looked out of breath, his whole body was soaked by the cold sea water, even his fluffy beard was not spared, it was sticking to his chin and clothes in strands.The key is that Wayne's brows are tightly frowned at this time, his face is full of bleak sorrow, and he can't see the appearance of the confident captain of Fortune before.

"There are too many gaps..." Facing Fang Yi's question, Wayne had to tell the truth, "The murlocs have dug a few big holes in the bottom of the boat, we can only pick a few of the most obvious ones to fill in, but in the cabin Still leaking slowly..."

"The sinking of the ship will happen sooner or later..." At the end, Wayne sighed, shaking his head and sitting on a wooden barrel at his feet, "There is no buffer time for us in this vast sea."

Hearing Wayne's slightly dejected words, Fang Yi and the old devil who was standing next to him looked at each other, and they both saw the worry in each other's eyes.

At this moment, the two of them were standing in the beautifully decorated captain's cabin, but they felt like a time bomb that was going to explode at the bottom of their feet, and a thick shadow was cast over their hearts.

Fang Yi walked to the side of the captain's cabin and looked through the window at the deck flickering with dim lights.At this time, the sailors' reaction was much more stable than Fang Yi expected, and there was no sign of disturbance.

"Well, Captain Wayne, go and stabilize the sailors' emotions first, and don't make troubles such as escaping or mutiny," Fang Yi shook his cloak, feeling that the sea water on his body was almost dry, and smiled He said to the bearded man, "Don't worry too much. There must be a way, don't we still have a prisoner?"

Wildhammer held up the torch and looked at the monster in front of him with an unkind expression. If it wasn't for the captain's order and Qinggang's deterrence, the sailors would have put this monster in fish soup.

The murloc lying on the deck was unusually tall, and his whole body was covered with red and green scales. Because he had been exposed to the air for a long time, the scales were covered with translucent mucus, emitting a foul smell. The dwarf warriors guarding the murlocs were unappetizing.

The overall appearance is not much different from ordinary murloc soldiers.Under the big head like a fish, there are two gills that can breathe underwater.The dorsal fin extending from the head to the tail on the back is gray-black, and looks like a piece of kelp that has been out of the water for too long, sticking to the surface of the scales.

The body of the murloc will naturally bend due to gravity when out of the water, and the elite murloc in front of him is curled up on the deck like a big shrimp.It's just that the two light bulb eyes kept scanning the surrounding crowd.With an arrogant look, he picked up the Wildhammer and hit the opponent's head with the coral stick.

When Fang Yi subdued the opponent, he also brought back the weapon used by the murlocs—a nearly five-foot-long spear barb made of coral.Its hardness is no less than that of ordinary iron.The dwarf warrior just wanted to raise his hand to teach this hated thing again, but found Fang Yi and the captain came out of the captain's room.

"Why, still don't speak?"

"Hmph. It's very stubborn. If it hadn't been beaten half to death by you, I would have chopped off one of its claws!" Wildhammer looked at the assassin and mage with relaxed faces, and said angrily, "Why do you You two are still so happy? We will feed the fish soon..."

Fang Yi smiled, shook his head at the dwarf warrior, walked to the side of the murloc scout, and looked up and down the terrifying monster, "It's almost done, Wildhammer, bring some torches to light up the fire. a little~"

Wildhammer was stunned for a moment, but after seeing Fang Yi's and Lao Mo's affirmative eyes, he went to prepare without asking any further questions.

It’s okay to be on the Falling Star Sea late at night, and the lighting on the ship has special restrictions. As early as in Star Twilight City, Fang Yi told a few people in particular—in the dark night, bright torches and lights can easily provoke some people. It's not easy to mess with, if you're unlucky enough to be spotted by a giant octopus, this treasure hunt can come to an end.

The previous battle was to deal with the murloc's sneak attack, but now Fang Yirang lit a few more torches to "roast the question".

The torches were quickly prepared, and the sailors followed Fang Yi's instructions and put the flames next to the murlocs on the ground. After a while, the mucus on the opponent's scales disappeared without a trace.

In less than 2 minutes, the originally wet and shiny scales had become extremely dry, and even large and small wrinkles appeared, and the murloc elite couldn't help but gasp.

"Dare to treat the warriors of the murlocs like this, you lowly creatures..."

The weird pronunciation of the murlocs made the opponent's common language sound awkward and awkward, but this simple sentence surprised the sailors around, and everyone looked at the assassin holding the torch with admiration—— In the past, when the murlocs were caught, they were killed directly. Who would have thought of interrogating them in a different way?

"Save your energy,"

Fang Yi chuckled, and the crackling torch in his hand moved close to the murloc's big eyeballs again, "Your name is... Tidewalker? Tell us first why the murloc's attack is different this time? Merchant ship destroyed?"

Shatesh flashed his sharp white teeth at the hateful human in front of him, and then he could only curl up his body hard, trying to avoid the hell-like flames that stretched out in front of him, but it was a pity that the murloc warrior was killed by two people. The finger-thick cables were tightly bound, and he could only let the flames beside him touch his scales, screaming in pain.

Seeing that the other party seemed rather dead than surrendered, Fang Yi sucked his teeth and waved to the crowd. A human sailor who was tall and thick squeezed over immediately, and with a sound of "Boom!", he put a bucket full of seawater in front of Fang Yi.

Fang Yi smiled and leaned the torch aside. The torch dipped in turpentine was wrapped in a bright yellow flame, and the back of the murloc was roasted at just the right distance, but even so, the so-called tidewalker still closed his eyes tightly. His big mouth remained silent.

"He's a tough guy, I like it," Fang Yi smiled, scooped a glass of seawater from the huge wooden cup that sailors used to drink, and shook his wrist.

The cold seawater had just touched the murloc's head, and the tidewalker lying on the ground seemed to be stimulated by something suddenly, his whole body became alert, and then he convulsed violently, and let out a hysterical growl from his bloody mouth, as if Anger, but also desire.The tangled roar made the sailors standing around get goose bumps all over their bodies, and they subconsciously took a step back. The assassin squatting next to the murloc suddenly became particularly conspicuous.

"I believe you will tell me," Fang Yi smiled and shook the wooden cup in his hand, and made a gesture of toasting. The cold voice made the crowd quiet, "said, where is the nearest small island nearby? ? Just give me the answer, and I'll throw you back into the sea right away."

"Cold and comfortable sea water~"

***

"Going south?"

Wayne believed that the suspicion in his tone was obvious, but looking at the indifferent mage and assassin on the opposite side, Wayne sighed and explained to them,

"The geographical situation of Falling Star Sea is very special. Except for some small islands near the larger peninsulas, sailing hundreds of miles from the coastline to the center of Falling Star Sea, you can't see even a little land. All the islands are islands. spread out."

The bearded man paused, glanced at the sailors who were busy taking out water, and did not hide the hesitation in his eyes, "Now that we are going south, all we can encounter is sea water..."

"My captain, we have no choice now," Lao Mo glanced at the assassin next to him, shook his head resolutely, and said calmly, "Now we are far away from the Pirate Islands, even if we go north, we may not be able to Encountered an island. Even if it's a trap, we have to try!"

5 minute later.

The two walked out of the captain's room and made a victory gesture to the two teammates waiting outside.

"Huh~~ I hope this ugly fish didn't lie to us," Wildhammer twisted his already soaked cloak, and said not without concern, "I would rather die in battle than sink to the bottom of the sea to feed the fish!"

"Hey, if you fall here, I guarantee that the one who eats you will not be a fish!" Qinggang did not forget to despise the dwarf warrior, but quickly turned his head to look at the assassin, "By the way, how did you know that?" This method of 'roasting questions'? Isn't this a bit..."

"Cruel?" Fang Yi smiled, looking at the busy figures of the sailors on the deck, he suddenly remembered some of his previous experiences, "This is all experience, wasn't I in the Karin Desert during the closed beta? Before, I encountered a mission to massacre a village in the Sea of ​​Glory, and the murderer was a murloc. In order to obtain clues, the few of us had no choice but to think of this method."

Recalling the scene of blood flowing into rivers in the fishing village gradually overlapping with the massacre in the slums of Xingmu City, Fang Yi shook his head, shook off the heavy memories about that mission, and let out a sigh of relief, "Remember, there are thousands of people in the mission. Don't believe what these sea creatures say, just like you don't believe in devils and demons. Maybe there are some good 'people' among them, but trust me, you won't meet them."

Fang Yi left Monsoon on the deck, and the dog's keen sense of smell and hearing was a great help at this time, while Fang Yi himself climbed onto the thickest mast in the middle of the hull, and quickly climbed up like a monkey. At the highest point, I stood on the watchtower at the top of the mast.

After a night of fierce fighting, the east of the boundless sea has already revealed a little paleness, and the slightly red horizon indicates that a new day is coming soon.Just turning to the front of Fortune, which was driving due south, there was still only a piece of blue-black sea, and there was no shadow of the island at all.

In an hour at most, the Fortune became a submarine, and it was still the one that could only go downwards—Fang Yi held the simple telescope he brought from Wayne, and felt a little uneasy.

Nima doesn't really want to feed the fish? (to be continued..)
