Facing Sheyan's questioning, Chris straightforwardly relayed the details of the hidden mission to Sheyan through the nightmare imprint. Sheyan nodded his head, as he was about to push open the door to leave. After taking two steps, he turned back.
"Oh right." Sheyan stared at Chris and said. "You're currently injured, and your personal strength isn't that strong. Those pirates would extort, blackmail, murder and arson, they aren't good people. When I'm on the ship, they wouldn't dare to do anything to you. But if I go to the port now, you can't openly appear in Tortuga port, you can only stay on the ship. Therefore, you have to protect yourself from now on. " “
Chris was like a cat whose tail was stepped on as he cried out.
"Oh my god! You can't do that! “
Sheyan shrugged his shoulders, calmly replying.
"Chris, I didn't violate any agreement between us. Honestly speaking, you've never confided in me, so I don't think there's a need for me to do something based on friendship. " “
Chris choked, laughing dryly.
"Yan, how can you say that?"
Sheyan calmly replied.
"Then why don't you tell me the reason why you attacked Tortuga castle, the details of the process, the rewards and your experience?"
Chris's expression turned bitter, muttering.
"You never mentioned this matter, I thought you weren't interested. When I attacked the castle, I was actually very passive, the entire situation was arranged by boss Nick. We were like workers in an assembly line, we only needed to do our part well … … "
Chris could be said to be a simple and honest person, but he was extremely shrewd. When he had no choice but to pay the price, he was extremely decisive, but when he wasn't willing to pay the price, he was a wily old fox, watertight. After rambling on for so long, Sheyan only received an effective message of "They were aiming for a treasure in Tortuga castle". But at least it was better than nothing.
"Alright." Sheyan stared at Chris. "I killed people on this ship to establish my might, I still have a bit of a vicious reputation. If anyone comes to find trouble with you, you only need to announce our close relationship. If anything happens, I will definitely seek revenge for the smallest grievance. Then, no matter how bold they are, they will think twice. "
Actually, Chris had thought of such a method before, but the prerequisite was to obtain Sheyan's approval. Otherwise, if Sheyan were to return and disassociate himself, then those scaredy-cats would definitely return in a swirl of dust and become even more ferocious! Now that he had obtained Sheyan's approval, he naturally felt relieved.
After settling Chris down, Sheyan boarded the sampan and rowed towards Tortuga port. Without a doubt, Chris was currently frightened out of his wits, thus his judgement ability had deteriorated. Furthermore, he previously did not have the opportunity to come into contact with the powers that could pillage Tortuga port. As long as Ammand went to interrogate him, then Chris would naturally realize that his information was extremely important to these pirates.
But it didn't matter. The reason why Sheyan saved his life and brought him on board, was naturally because he had his own plans and arrangements. His current priority was to first accept the hidden mission given by Chris, then see if it conflicted with his own plans before deciding on anything else.
Currently, Tortuga port was bustling as usual, but walking on the streets, the gazes of many pirates were filled with an indescribable mystery. Furthermore, the patrolling strength and manpower of the port had been doubled, but many merchant ships that came to do business had already started to reduce their prices and abandon their goods. It seemed like they were planning to leave this troublesome place as soon as possible. Sheyan followed Chris's address, walking towards a shop on the west side of the port. Raising his head, he couldn't help but have a strange feeling. So this was shockingly the 'Chicken and Dog' shop that he visited when he first entered this world.
Looking at the old man with a white cloth wrapped around his head holding a feather duster, Sheyan took a deep breath and said.
"Mr Mo Waller, India's Miss Tatasha asked me to pass a message to you. “
After the old man heard this, he didn't seem to have any reaction, continuing to dust. Suddenly, a small ceramic wine cup fell from the shelf, shattering into 5-6 pieces. He coughed a few times, using his right hand to hammer his back, he then slowly said.
"Ai, I'm old, I'm useless. “
“！！ … … ¥% ¥… …% nani! " Sheyan was instantly depressed. "Why is it like this? Chris clearly told me that once I mention Miss Tatasha, this old man will sigh and tell me about his past! But why is it like this now? " “
"Don't tell me that slut lied to me? But this was obviously verified by the nightmare imprint, he couldn't play any tricks. But what is going on now? " “
Sheyan attempted to strike up a conversation with this old man, but the old man sat back down on his chair, silently gazing at the distant sea in a daze, not uttering a single word. Sheyan was able to maintain his composure, but he still felt a wave of impatience, wishing he could lift this old man up and give him a few punches. But he suddenly recalled the first time he met this old man, he bought a few betel nuts from him and obtained some information. Then this old man tried his best to sell him a tattered rope knot called 'Magical amulet', but he didn't buy it and left. But now in this shop … … the rope knot hanging on the wall seemed to have disappeared!
After having this thought, Sheyan couldn't wait to inspect the goods in the shop. He discovered that compared to yesterday, the goods sold were much lesser, and the goods that were sold were all fake goods like 'Magical amulet'. His heart skipped a beat, pointing to a branch hanging on the wall on the left.
"This … … how much is this?"
Seeing business knocking on his door, this old man Mole Waller lazily strolled over, his face filled with anger as he scolded.
"Don't spout nonsense here, what is this? This is a branch from the sacred tree growing on the sacred mountain of Olympus! If not for the ominous omen, I wouldn't have sold it to others just to raise funds. "
How would Sheyan dare to provoke him now? He hurriedly nodded.
"Yes yes yes, then may I ask how much is this branch from the sacred tree of Olympus?"
Mole Waller snappily replied.
"2 pounds, if you're not buying then leave!"
Sheyan's face twitched, realizing the disadvantage of his low charm, he could only lower his voice.
"I don't have enough money on me, can it be cheaper?"
The old man repeatedly shook his head.
"Heavens! If a pauper like you doesn't have enough money, then why are you still standing here and wasting my time? I'll give you 5 seconds to disappear from my sight. Anyway, this sacred tree branch has already been reserved by someone, they'll be here to retrieve it. Generous customers like you are not lacking. " “
Initially, in order to complete the 'drunkard' milestone, Sheyan had spent all his money. Apart from that, he could only use the shillings dropped by the 'II' level guard, Coutts, as well as that Edward V gold pound. However, the Edward V gold pound was a valuable item that could be brought out of this world, it could be exchanged for up to 400 utility points. If it wasn't a last resort, Sheyan definitely wouldn't use it. But seeing this old man acting weird, and him not being able to find the currency of this world, Sheyan's heart skipped a beat, he fished out the Edward V gold pound and said.
"Fine! 2 pounds it is, I'll use this as collateral right, I'll go get the money. " “
Actually, Sheyan was probing, because although this old man was a general store, the front half of the house was filled with daily necessities, while the inside half of the house was filled with strange and bizarre items. From the looks of it, this old man should be a collector. Logically speaking, this type of person would be very interested in ancient collectibles.
Indeed, when Sheyan fished out the dazzling Edward V gold pound, although this crafty old fox Mole Waller maintained his composure, his eyes couldn't help but be glued to it. He first bit it with his teeth, then blew on it and placed it by his ear to listen. Finally, he took out a pocket watch-like magnifying glass and carefully inspected it. Finally, he reluctantly said.
"How about this, you don't need to go back to get the money. I've always been fair, a gold pound is worth about 5 pounds, I'll give you 3 pounds." “
As he spoke, he shamelessly fished out 3 pounds, seemingly intending to toss it over! Regardless of whether Sheyan was willing or not, as long as Sheyan instinctively caught it, then the transaction would be completed! Fortunately, Sheyan had been sailing since he was 14 years old, to be blunt, he had already travelled all over the world and met countless scoundrels. Long before the old fox tossed out the 3 pounds, Sheyan had already stuffed both his hands into his pockets, allowing the 3 ordinary pounds to roll onto the floor. With a smile yet not a smile he said.
"What a coincidence, God seems to have heard the voice in my heart, sending an acquaintance to the side. I'll immediately borrow 2 pounds from him, Mr Mole Waller please return the gold pound to me."
When the gold pound landed in Mole Waller's hands, it was like a bone being bitten by an old dog that had been starving for 2 days, how could he let it go so easily? He immediately swallowed a mouthful of saliva, passionately saying.
"Actually, this shop has many rare treasures. Look, this is a mysterious tail bone that was blessed by a mysterious gypsy, it can instantly change your luck? Ah? That is the legendary conch shell of Atlantis, it can release a cry that can shake even the sea ….. "
