Chapter 116 Sea Hunter

The night was gloomy, only the dim starlight flickered.

Boom—

A box full of cargo slammed down on the dock.

“Idiot, be careful, if you break the goods, be careful I skin you!”

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry, we’ll get it sorted right away!”

There are still many ships still operating in the “Newern Harbor” at night. I don’t know which Chamber of Commerce’s loading and unloading personnel had a problem, which attracted the scolding from the steward.

It also caused a commotion among some people in the dark

Different from Garbride, who was only used for military and commercial purposes, the situation here is much more complicated than the former.

As the headquarters of the Phalatis Kingdom Adventurers Association and the Sea Hunter Union, “Newern Harbor” also accepts a variety of people from all directions and backgrounds, as well as those navigators, explorers, etc. “priceless and unique rare treasure” brought back by home, sea hunters, speculators and even down-and-out sailors.

The staff is complex, the wealth is moving, and the occasional commotion is the norm here.

At this time.

An expedition ship with a lot of damage to its hull that had obviously experienced a thrilling journey, slowly docked at the berth under the guidance of the navigator.

Bang——

The boat hadn’t come to a standstill, and a crash-bang group of dozens of people rushed down from the boat, hurriedly, as if something was going on behind them. Like chasing.

After a brief contact with the port staff.

This group of people quickly disappeared into the darkness under the leadership of a connector who had been waiting on the dock for a long time.

Although the staff at the port wondered about the behavior of these people, they didn’t think much about it. There are many mavericks in this city, but they don’t have such strong curiosity to go to the bottom of the poor. .

As long as the management fee is paid on time, they can go wherever they like.

“Todd, what’s going on with the buyer you contacted? We must get rid of this thing as soon as possible.” A sturdy man in a long trench coat in the lead strode, asking the following ‘s connector.

“Boss Stanley, I have already contacted the person, and the agreed time is tomorrow night.” Todd, the shrewd-faced and short-haired connector, leaned over to the boss and replied in a low voice.

“Aren’t they local forces? Can’t they trade right away? Why wait until tomorrow night?”

He spit out a series of rhetorical questions.

At the same time, the middle age person known as Boss Stanley glanced behind him unconsciously, and he was holding a box tightly wrapped in black cloth.

“We disobeyed the request of the entrusting party and did not hand it over to the designated person, taking such a big risk, can’t they be flexible?”

Obviously that The things in the box brought him a lot of pressure, and his voice was no longer as calm as it used to be.

“Boss, no. There are more than one forces that want this item. The buyer with the highest bid said that they have to find a way to transport it quickly after receiving the goods, even if it is a local tyrant, it needs to be arranged. Road, tomorrow night is the fastest time.

If they can’t guarantee the absolute safety of things, they would rather not!”

Todd gave his boss a bitter face. Explain that this is the result of his best efforts, but there is nothing he can do if the time is too tight.

In fact, Stanley wasn’t in a hurry at first. Although he accepted the commission to deliver the items to the designated person, selling them in violation of the contract was as simple as drinking water and eating. You don’t need to care about the employer’s requirements at all.

However, that box, that wicked box, had a strange change when the agreed deadline came.

He swears that he has been a sea hunter all his life, and he can be regarded as experienced and knowledgeable. He has been exposed to a lot of strange and strange things, but he has never seen such a wicked thing.

This box has its own consciousness!

It’s not the consciousness of a muddleheaded low-level monster, but the kind of wisdom with a clear and flexible mind. Yes, Stanley thinks it can only be described by wisdom!

It is natural to communicate with people with wisdom, but the process of communication is obviously not that wonderful. Looking back on everything that happened at that time, the temperament that Stanley has been across the sea for many years can’t help but fight.

Because it seems like the master of aloof and remote, or the maker of rules of the game, made its very weird and absurd request, which is what it calls rules of the game.

The bearer must act according to the rules it proposes, otherwise it will eat a living person every twelve hours! Until the sea hunters on the entire ship are eaten!

In the face of the threat of the box, everyone was snort disdainfully at first.

But after that, even if I gathered the strength of my entire team, I couldn’t do anything about this little box. It couldn’t stop, destroy, or throw it away. It almost ate eight of them with no resistance. companion.

They compromised.

From the moment the mission deadline expired, it seemed that these people had become slaves to this box.

Stanley even had a crazy idea that there might not be any clients from beginning to end, behind which this weird box is simply directing and acting.

Up to now, after repeated trials of blood and flesh, the two sides have been able to coexist reluctantly.

He feels that only by finding another wave of willing forces to hand over it can they really get rid of this thing, and after making huge sacrifices, they are really reluctant to give up the big golden sum promised by the buyer. Lion.

“Quick, quick, it’s time, change people!”

A youngster in the team behind him who was in charge of timing with a pocket watch suddenly screamed, and a silhouette hearing this quickly disappeared from the team. He rushed out and took the box.

The companion who was holding the box, such as the amnesty, quickly retreated, as if it was not a box, but a large-scale alchemy bomb.

The person who took over was not altruistic either. If this ghastly thing got out of control, everyone who shared a boat with it would be unlucky. A dozen former companions who didn’t even have any bones left have proved it. up to this point.

Now everyone can only hope that the boss can find a way to find a new home, trade it out, and get rid of this terrifying box at the same time, if you can get a lot of Golden Lion, it would be great .

This is also the original motivation for them to cooperate actively.

The rules of the game proposed by the box today are that the holder must be in a state of constant movement. If the holder does not change, every hour needs to meet a requirement of the box.

Either answering a question or doing a trivial thing, the difficulty of the event will gradually increase, and if it fails to meet the requirements, it will be directly swallowed by it

The shift has just been completed , and the sound of the clockwork winding gear turning in the box.

“Takota”

Then, like a music box and like an aria, in a word, with an indescribable glowy and cold aura, came out: “Ah, ah, by you. It’s a pity to hide away!”

The box made a dissatisfied sound, and the sea hunters around it were heard breaking out in a cold sweat.

Hearing that terrifying voice, even though he was already an official Knight at the transcender level, Stanley couldn’t help but shudder.

“Never mind the damn buyer, Todd will find us a safe place to live first.”

“No problem, boss, it’s ready, follow me Come on.”

Todd bowed in agreement, at the same time hiding the rays of light in his eyes by lowering his head.

Let’s be the first to lead the way away from the bustling and noisy port area, and lead the entire group to the factory area that is quiet and empty at night.
