Without a doubt, the name 'Ammand' gave Chris a huge shock. Although he tried his best to conceal it, he was unable to erase the greed and envy in his eyes. His eyes turned, probing as he asked:
"We have investigated the Bell and Mug, it is one of the 3 large scale pirate ships ….. I heard that being a crew member of a large scale pirate ship, there are additional benefits? “
Sheyan very straightforwardly replied:
"That's right, you will receive a side mission, it points towards the 3 legendary pirate ships. “
Chris swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
"Then you mean you want to bring me to the Bell and Mug?" “
Sheyan nodded:
"That's right, currently the entire Tortuga port is filled with undercurrents. Even if the port guards have the guts as big as the sky, they would not dare to forcefully request to board the ship. If not, it would easily give the greedy pirates an excuse to riot. Therefore, you will be safe on board, once the search ends you can smoothly escape."
Chris suddenly asked suspiciously:
"Pirates are usually very suspicious, you just joined, how would they allow you to bring a stranger on board?" “
Sheyan calmly replied:
"Therefore, you must have a very intimate relationship with me … … retract your wretched gaze, I have no interest in a man's * *. You can be my relative, you can also be my benefactor who once saved my life. I have to let those damned pirates think that you are a very important part of my life. “
Chris heaved a sigh of relief, satisfactorily replying:
"I feel that your suggestion is very good, but it is still not enough. If we combine these two suggestions, then it would be perfect. Cousin's identity plus benefactor would be very persuasive. My dear Yan, you have already blackmailed me ruthlessly, it's settled then. " “
As the two of them conversed, Sheyan supported Chris as they walked towards the pier. After hiding him in the forest by the seaside, he then signaled for the Bell and Mug to send a small boat to receive them. (During that era, it was usually very difficult to remove silt underwater in the harbor. Therefore, usually large pirate ships were unable to completely approach the shore due to the deep water. Some harbors that had been in use for a long time were often hundreds of meters away from the shore due to heavy silting. Therefore, to go ashore, they would need a sampan or small boat to make the transition.)
Very quickly, Sheyan stood in front of Ammand who was currently in the captain's room. Ammand was currently studying a yellowed sea chart with his hands clasped behind his back. His slightly skinny body was perfectly straight, causing one to unconsciously associate him with a bayonet at the end of a gun.
"What is it? “
Ammand's hawk-like gaze swept past Sheyan, before returning to the map.
Sheyan replied in a neither servile nor overbearing manner.
"I'm very grateful for my lord's appreciation of me, but I can't let you down now. I am about to provoke a rather thorny problem, in order to not implicate everyone on the Bell and Mug, I have no choice but to bid farewell to Sir. “
Ammand's back was still facing Sheyan, but his pupils constricted as he stared at the map.
"You are now my crew member, so the most important thing for you to do is to explain everything to me, and not try to face it alone!"
Sheyan's eyes flashed with a trace of craftiness, then he lowered his voice and replied.
"A few hours ago, there was an explosion in the Tortuga castle, I'm sure Sir has heard of it right?"
Ammand's hands behind his back clenched tightly, but he immediately loosened them. His tone was calm as he replied.
"This matter seems to be known by everyone."
Sheyan very seriously replied.
"My unlucky cousin Chris was involved in this terrible matter. Unfortunately, he seemed to be one of the direct participants of this plan. When I discovered him on the west slope of the harbor, a harbor guard was about to chop off his head. Therefore, I intervened and killed that harbor guard, saving his life. Just like two years ago in Southeast Asia, Manila, he did the same to me. "
Ammand seemed to ponder for a while, before he solemnly said, "You're right.
"Then what plans do you have after leaving the Bell and Mug?"
Sheyan's face carried a perplexed expression as he shook his head.
"Currently I don't know, first I'll try to hide, then find a ship to set sail."
"Foolish! Foolish! " Ammand suddenly raised his voice as he turned around. "Do you know how big this Tortuga island is? It is not even a third of Dyke county, even a child would not need more than 2 days to walk from the east to the west! "
"And the Fokke family has already occupied this place for a hundred years, how long can you and your brother hide? 2 days, 3 days? When the time comes, even if you flatly deny it, you will still implicate us. Please don't forget that Scarface Harry brought you away under the watchful eyes of dozens of people! Yan from the east! "
Sheyan's face revealed a hesitant expression, he wanted to say something but hesitated. Ammand used a tone as though he hated iron for not living up to his expectations.
"Implicate? Hey! When you don't use your brain to do things, that is implicating others. Let me tell you again, since you have already become a crew member of the Bell and Mug, then no matter what you do or think, you have to start from this! Where's your brother? Quickly get someone to bring him to the ship. “
"Sir!" Sheyan used a tone filled with gratitude and guilt as he couldn't help but shout out.
Ammand sighed, tiredly waving his hand.
"Go, the Fokke family is currently in a terrible fix, they do not have the guts to behave atrociously on the Bell and Mug." “
Sheyan nodded, bowing respectfully before retreating. Instead, Ammand's eyes abruptly shot out two beams of excitement. To him, this news of Sheyan was truly a tremendous surprise that descended from the heavens! To Tortuga port where the sun was setting in the west, this bunch of bandits who dared to brazenly launch an assault were targets to be killed. But to Ammand who was a pirate captain with huge ambitions, this bunch of bandits were a precious treasure that was hard to come by!
Even if this group of people had already acted rashly and alerted the enemy, their strength seemed rather ordinary. But from their successful attack on the Fokke family, one could directly understand the current situation of the Fokke family, and make a direct assessment of this rich yet weak family! It could be said to be hard to come by!
From a deeper perspective, even though Ammand was very famous, but he could only be considered as a captain of a large scale pirate ship. Compared to the three legendary pirate ship captains, there was still a disparity. Although the Fokke family's weakness was obvious, but a starving camel is still bigger than a horse, a group of pirates would definitely not be able to gnaw it down.
If a major event like plundering Tortuga port happened, then it would definitely require the cooperation of several pirate alliances. Under normal circumstances, Ammand could only be considered as a weak subordinate in the alliance. But if he had a huge bargaining chip in his hands, the 'survivor of the first attack on Tortuga castle', naturally he would be able to climb up the ranks of the leaders.
Sheyan was able to grasp this point, hence he took a step back in order to advance, and made Ammand take the initiative to order him to stay! This way, the effect would be ten times or a hundred times better than begging him.
While Sheyan was preparing to board the sailboat to receive them, Scarface Harry had already hurriedly led three fully armed pirates over, saying that the captain was afraid they would meet with any trouble and thus came to escort them. Sheyan appeared to be very grateful, but in his heart he was sneering. Ammand was still not calm enough, afraid that the cooked duck would fly away, he was so enthusiastic.
Chris who was hiding by the shore naturally waited for days as if it was years, like an ant on a hot pan. Thus when he saw Sheyan bringing along four extremely vicious looking pirates who gave off a sense of security, he was so emotional that tears almost flowed out.
Once he safely boarded the Bell and Mug, his heart finally relaxed. He immediately felt that his leg injury was extremely painful, he couldn't help but groan out loud. Chris's physique was originally on the low side, hence his recovery was not strong. Adding on to the fact that his leg injury was not light, and he had lost a lot of blood while trying his best to escape, naturally his light injury became a serious injury. He invited the pirate ship's doctor Xiaer over to take a look, he simply bandaged the wound, washed it with strong alcohol and let him rest on the bed.
(Author's note: Also ridiculing the medical standards of medieval Europe, at that time doctors were all part-time. Thus if you are unfortunate enough to travel to the medieval era, don't be surprised if you meet a level 5 monk or a level 1 doctor, or a level 3 priest or level 2 doctor. Their treatment methods are very simple: If you feel any mental discomfort, including but not limited to headache, dizziness etc, the treatment method is to cut open your arm's vein to release blood. If you feel any discomfort in your digestive system, the treatment method is to induce vomiting … … for other discomforts, both methods are used simultaneously … …)
Although Ammand didn't know how much he wanted to grab Chris's neck, give him two tight slaps and force him to spit out everything he knew, but rashly disturbing a patient in this era was extremely impolite. Of course, the main reason was because Ammand had already treated Chris as his prey. Therefore, Chris received a period of blissful rest. While Chris was rejoicing that he had escaped a calamity, Sheyan pushed open the cabin door and walked in, coldly saying.
"My promise has been fulfilled, what about yours?"
