Extraordinary Sailing

Chapter 169: Viscount trouble

???? Leopold Town Hall, reception room.

???? Came here again after a year, and Ivan's mood was completely different from that of meeting the Viscount for the first time.

???? Being led by the Lord himself to enter here.

???? Ivan even has a leisure time to appreciate the furnishings of the living room, not to mention the precious furniture and the oil painting on the wall, a weapon rack placed in the corner of the room is filled with lances, shields, and swords, all the time. It highlights the fact that the Viscount family is a nobleman.

???? And all this, when Ivan came here for the first time, he didn't even notice...

???? In the meeting room, Ivan saw Viscount Andrea again after a year away.

???? "Good day! Your Excellency Viscount!"

???? "Welcome home, Captain Ivan!"

After greetings, Aiwen sat in the seat of the guest and looked at the old man wearing aristocratic dress on the opposite side. Suddenly he noticed that the change was subtle from the other friends. The Viscount Lord was obviously older than a year ago.

???? Although the sitting posture is still majestic, upright, and rigid, it is far from the deep oppressive feeling that was a year ago.

???? "As an experienced old man, I saw your eyes a year ago, I think you can win your merits and honors sooner or later.

???? Unexpectedly, in just one year, you have not only successfully advanced to the extraordinary, you have even taken the position of the sixth-tier captain!

???? Being old, really old. Can't see the depth of young people now. "

The Viscount looked at the heroic young naval officer in front of him, as if sighing with emotion.

???? Opposite him, Aiwen, whose eyes were no different from what he used to be, had long seen that the Lord Viscount was just an ordinary official knight.

???? At least on the transcendent level, I had to look up a year ago, but now I can look down lightly.

???? For the road of the Cavaliers, the physical fierceness allowed them to obtain a physical quality far beyond ordinary people, but the rate of consumption also accelerated. Even if the extraordinary transformation is completed, one increase and one decrease of life will not actually be much longer than ordinary people.

???? It's just that the body is healthier and stronger, far from beyond birth, old age, sickness and death.

???? This is the case with Irvine's Garriott family.

???? The barons of the previous generations are basically extraordinary knights. As adventurers in their bones, they do not lack the firm will and extraordinary courage to make breakthroughs. But in just about 170 years of family history, hasn't the eight barons changed like a whirlwind?

???? Only after reaching the "Great Knight" level to awaken the knight's extraordinary energy "fight", their spirit and body form a certain integration, and their life span can be significantly increased. The average life expectancy of the "Great Knight" can reach 150 years, and there are not no people who live to 200 years of age.

???? And wait until the "titled knight" has formed a qualitative change, even if it does not pay attention to life span...

The path of the knight can easily live a few hundred years old, and it is no joke to sit and watch the rise and fall of a kingdom.

???? However, seeing the obviously old Viscount at this time, Ivan was only a little bit emotional. He was still young and thought that those things were still far away.

???? "Your Excellency Viscount has a good reputation, I also want to thank you for your generous help!"

???? Ivan’s words came from the bottom of my heart. I recalled that if I didn’t have the "Yellow Hu" and the "Recommendation Letter" when I joined the army, I am afraid that my road to the army would go to another turning point. Can I have the current results? It's hard to say.

???? "Thanks are unnecessary, it's just a letter of recommendation. If you don't have the talent, the letter is just a piece of waste paper.

???? About half a year ago, I saw a copy of the Bekeler Post. There is also the name of Major'Ivan Garriott' on it. Before I thought it was the same name, but seeing you now, I have no doubt.

???? Obviously, even without my help, your name will echo in this sea! "

???? It seemed to be embarrassing, but the Viscount had a somewhat normal old man feeling at this time. Moreover, the Viscount can no longer be as casual as he once was with Irving, who is already a navy captain.

???? Smiled slightly and did not continue to be humble, Ai Wen lightly sipped a sip of the fine black tea, at least this was the treatment he had never received when he came here last time.

???? The confidence brought by his strength and identity made him not restrained at all. Even the viscount, who is rigid, strict, and impersonal, now takes it for granted, as it should be.

???? 咚咚咚...

???? At this time, a slightly rapid knock on the door sounded abruptly.

???? The old man frowned slightly, knowing that he was even interrupting when he was meeting guests, are these guys so unruly? However, they can't get angry in front of the guests.

???? Shouted with a straight face:

???? "What's the matter? Come in."

???? What surprised him was that the person who stepped in after pushing the door was not the clerk of the city hall, but his housekeeper!

????"master!"

???? The butler in a hurry, clothes are slightly messy at this time, this is simply unimaginable in aristocratic families that value etiquette.

???? After entering the door, although he did not run, he also rushed to the Viscount at the fastest speed. Obviously, some tricky things have made him forget these minutiae.

???? He even ignored the guest Ivan temporarily, and whispered in the ear of the Viscount: "Master, just received the news from Tern that our ‘Double Tail’ was hijacked by pirates."

Hearing this, the Viscount's hand shook slightly and overturned the exquisite tea set in his hand. The bright red tea soup was scattered all over the ground, and the face of Gu Jing Wubo, who had been cultivated for decades, also broke his work in an instant.

???? "Are you sure it's the'Two-Tailed Fish'?" His eyes widened suddenly, and the old man's voice was unusually rapid.

???? "There can be nothing wrong...

, Is the message sent by the captain of the "Two Tails" before being captured by the pirates.

???? It's just that the intelligence is a bit strange, even if they resisted, they still caused damage to the pirates.

???? But the pirate’s artillery counterattack was not fierce, like an idea of ​​capturing everyone alive. We don’t know what happened after that..."

???? The butler did not dare to conceal any details, he knew his master's style of behavior, and never wanted to influence the master's judgment for his own reasons.

???? Bang——

???? The old man's old but still strong palm patted the table hard.

???? "Hmph, of course they want to capture the crew alive! Do they want the goods? What they want is my life!

???? Okay, I want people to steal and get it!

???? In order to drive me off from the position of Wake County Councillor, the fat pig in Wester City has completely torn off its skin! "

???? Even a rigid old man like the Viscount was so gaffe, which made Ivan curious about what was on the ship. After all, based on his knowledge of the old man's wealth, even if he lost a shipment of goods, he wouldn't be so anxious.

???? "Master, what shall we do now? Those goods..."

???? The butler rarely sees the master in this state, he who understands what's on the ship knows that the situation is too unfavorable for his side, so he asked cautiously.

???? "Since they have already taken action, it is naturally impossible to give us time to react. Maybe a military patrol ship will "encounter" the pirate soon, right?

The ship seized from the pirates, naturally, does not need to be protected by the privileges of the nobility, and can be searched in an open manner, and the matter can be directly determined from the legal principle.

???? And in the end, it can be pushed to the navy's normal inspections and picked up completely. Except for hiring pirates and whispering, there is no loss at all! "

???? Viscount's eyes flashed with a fierce light like an old wolf. It was a matter of life, so he could not help but hesitate for a moment:

???? "We must take the ship back in advance before the navy can find the cargo. The safest way is to deal with the pirates together!"

???? At first, Ivan next to him listened to the troubles the Viscount encountered with the mentality of a bystander. But soon he realized that how could the Viscount’s Lao Lao tell this secret that obviously involves some kind of "prohibited goods" ~ www.ltnovel.com~ openly in front of him?

???? The latter words are clearly meant for myself!

???? And unless the other party has the ability to directly buy the navy to arrange in advance, and seamlessly "cooperate" with the pirates. If you want to say which naval cruise ship is the closest in the nearby waters at this time, isn't it your own "Conch"? Find someone to deal with the pirates, how can there be a more suitable candidate than yourself?

???? This old man may have a spare armed merchant ship in his hands, but can he catch up with the pirates, can he beat the pirates...

Still two to say. The old fox is clearly trying to make himself stand out!

???? Ivan quickly weighed the pros and cons in his heart, did he need to intervene in this kind of obviously local power struggle for the old Viscount?

???? At this time, there is no Uncle Geer as his life mentor. Any decision he makes has to bear the consequences.

???? The test is also the determination of the captain!

???? Although he and the old man have some personal acquaintances, chasing pirates involves a joint operation of more than a hundred people on the entire warship, and he needs to be responsible for the lives of the navy headquarters and crew.

???? Although it is not necessary to be too clear between public and private, but...

????at this time.

???? The old man saw Aiwen suddenly raising his head, as well as those almost glowing eyes looking straight at him. Somehow it suddenly occurred to me when I was young (keng), exhibition (meng), fist (guai), and foot (pian) without relying on the family to earn the first pot of gold.

???? Suddenly there was a chill on my neck.

????"Uh...."
