Chapter 25: Plan to Break Out
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“What’s the matter? Did you discover something?” Meng Xi immediately asked hopefully when she saw Su Ce’s reaction.
He gently knocked on the door of the cabin and said with a frown, “Yes, I already have a definite idea. But I have to act alone this time. I’ll take you away after I deal with the surrounding troubles.”
“Oh… Okay, be careful.” Mengxi immediately nodded obediently.
She didn’t even consider whether he would escape on his own and leave her here.
At this moment, Su Ce’s heart was already in turmoil.
He didn’t expect that the purpose of these pirates was not to rob other ships at all. Their real goal was to smuggle a young dragon that had just hatched and had yet to open its eyes!!
Regarding this information, Su Ce believed that it was absolutely true.
He had seen Alexis when she was a hatchling and young dragon. He had even flown in the sky on the adult Alexis.
Thus, he was very clear about the aura of each age period of dragons.
The smell wafting out from the cracks in the wooden wall was clearly that of a baby dragon that had just broken out of its shell!
This news was simply shocking to Su Ce.
At first, he even thought that there was something wrong with his senses and sense of smell.
After all, no matter how cruel and powerful these pirates were, it was impossible for them to provoke a dragon subspecies that only Rank 4 Professionals could contend with.
But after a few confirmations, he quickly accepted this fact.
Moreover, he thought of a plan—contract the dragon that had just broken out of its shell.
Although what he did was not justice, the other party was originally ruthless pirates who had taken dozens of lives.
Therefore, there was no need for him to feel guilty.
Having made up his mind, Su Ce immediately prepared to carry out his plan.
His Dragon God Affinity talent could 100% contract with any type of dragon.
But there were also many limitations.
One of them was that he had to touch the contracted creature, and the distance between the two could not exceed a meter.
Therefore, he couldn’t successfully cast the contract spell with a wooden wall between them. Looks like I have to use some special methods.
Through a gap, Su Ce saw two pirates chatting not far away from the cabin.
“Colin’s necklace is really powerful. Not only can it create fog in the surroundings, but it can also completely hide the aura of everyone on the ship.”
“Yeah. We’ve encountered many colleagues along the way. Fortunately, we had Colin’s help to reach this place smoothly.”
Hearing the conversation between the two pirates outside, Su Ce was suddenly enlightened.
No wonder the Eye of the Dragon God didn’t detect the existence of the nearby pirate fleet when it took effect an hour ago. It turned out that they had an item to hide their aura.
It seemed that even a top-level talent could sometimes be deceived by a small piece of silver-quality jewelry.
While thinking of this, Su Ce immediately slammed the door hard and began to execute the plan in his mind.
The prerequisite for the plan was the silver-quality equipment he was wearing, Hermit Robe.
[Hermit Robe]
Quality: Silver
Basic Attributes: Physical Defense +2, Spirit +3
Additional Skill: Hermit (After the skill is activated, the wearer’s presence will immediately be reduced for 10 seconds. The greater the difference in level between the user and enemies, the easier it is to see through the effect of reducing presence.)
Su Ce only needed to wait for the two sailors to open the door and immediately activate the Hermit Robe’s equipment skill. He would be able to slip away under the noses of the two sailors, and the effect of 10 seconds was enough for him to enter the cabin next door.
As long as the enemies he faced were lower than Level 20 and couldn’t see through the effect of the Hermit skill, his plan would most likely succeed.
But Meng Xi, who was standing behind him, felt her heart almost jump out of her throat when she saw Su Ce slam the door.
But out of trust for him, she didn’t scream. Instead, she stood nervously by the wall, trying not to make a sound.
Soon, the sound of messy footsteps approached.
“Damn it. You two better behave yourselves inside. Otherwise, I’ll chop you up and feed you to the fish right now,” a sailor holding a short sword cursed as he took out a key to unlock the chain on the cabin door.
The other one pushed open the door and walked in fiercely. He was about to curse.
But he suddenly found that one of the people who had been tied up was actually untied at this moment and was standing beside the door with an expressionless face.
“You… This.” The sailor felt confused, but he couldn’t figure out what the problem was for a moment.
The other man with the short sword only gave the man a cursory glance and didn’t find any problem.
Seeing that the two sailors were indifferent to Su Ce’s existence, Meng Xi immediately opened her mouth to attract their attention. “I’m sorry, sirs. It’s really too cold in here. Can I have a blanket?”
She had wrapped a cut rope around herself and used both hands to tighten the ends so that she still looked tied up.
“Dream on, b*tch. Don’t bother us with stupid shit, and stay here obediently!” The sailor spat, turned around to leave, and closed the door without hesitation.
The other one locked the chain again.
But they didn’t know that Su Ce had already taken the opportunity to slip out while they were talking.
[Prompt: The equipment skill Hermit has 5 seconds remaining.]
He came to the interior of the complicated and crowded hull.
Su Ce didn’t waste time to observe his surroundings and immediately walked toward the cabin beside him.
He saw that although the cabin next door was not locked, there were several sailors standing outside the door.
At the same time, he heard a few chattering voices coming from inside the cabin.
Time was of the essence, and Su Ce didn’t have time to consider anything. Without hesitation, he walked toward the cabin.
Looking at the stranger who suddenly appeared in front of them, the two sailors were a little confused.
This person who appeared in front of them seemed very familiar and seemed to have a close relationship with them.
Their minds were murky, unable to think about the young man who had suddenly appeared.
After passing by the two sailors, Su Ce finally arrived inside the cabin.
There were five sailors and crew members in front of him.
Moreover, they were around Level 12 to Level 15.
If they discovered him, he would be surrounded.
In such a small environment, Su Ce might not be able to escape.
His heart was racing. He gritted his teeth and pulled open the partition inside the cabin under the puzzled gazes of the pirates!
[Prompt: The equipment skill Hermit has 2 seconds remaining.]
The notification in his mind made Su Ce’s heart jump to his throat.
With a cursory glance, he immediately found a baby dragon in the haystack at the corner of the wall. It was completely blue and covered in mucus.
Su Ce immediately cast the contract spell and roared, “Contract!!”
[Prompt: The duration of the equipment skill Hermit is over! Effect ends!]
The moment he cast the contract spell, the strange energy lingering around his body disappeared.
At the same time, the pirates turned to face him one after another with doubtful expressions, their originally blank expressions instantly turning into cruelty and resentment!
