With Brother Jue's suggestion, the three players picked up a mop and a brush and pretended to help the sailors clean the deck.
During the cleaning process, they each went to collect some 'pieces' of the parasite.
This … Feng Bujue had a plan. When he saw the 'parasite', he knew that it was related to the Anomalies, so he planned to bring some 'samples' back. When he had the chance, he would give them to his Anomalies to identify.
As for Hong Hu and Snow, even though they did not have a clear goal like Brother Jue, after a short consideration, they also chose to 'take' the samples. This was because they knew that … the body pieces of these rare monsters were like dragon scales, phoenix eyes, and kirin teeth. They had to have a special use or value. In the later stages of the game, the higher level summoning, sorcery, and mechanical mastery skills would often require such items.
…
If there was a book, it would be long; if there was no book, it would be short.
Twenty minutes later, Queen Anna's Revenge set sail again.
At the same time, the wind picked up on the sea.
The wind was neither too strong nor too weak, and it pushed the Queen's Revenge towards its target. It was as if there was a force helping the pirates.
Therefore, someone said, "This is Mr. Erdini's soul protecting us and sending us on our way."
No one objected to that.
People who stayed at sea for a long time would often become superstitious, and pirates … were probably the most superstitious group of people.
Their superstitions were different from normal people's superstitions.
The things that pirates believed in had nothing to do with most of the orthodox religions.
Of course, this was normal. Be it Christianity, Buddhism, or Taoism … In short, as long as it was a religion that guided people to be good, it was not suitable for pirates.
Imagine if you believed in a religion, and then you realized that, according to the religion, nine out of ten things you did would lead you to hell. What was the point of believing in that religion?
If every religion in the world had its own hell, then pirates would be able to go to any of them without a visa.
Therefore, the "superstitions" of the pirates were mostly based on the more bizarre legends of the gods and monsters, voodoo cults, and some of the ghost stories that were passed down by the sailors.
Among them … there was such a legend …
"The death of every respected old sailor will bring good luck to the people on this ship for half a day."
No one knew when or who spread this rumor, but the pirates believed in this kind of nonsense.
Perhaps in the eyes of a normal person, this kind of nonsense was nothing, but in the eyes of the pirates, this kind of nonsense was more believable than the stories in religion.
Because … religion came from lies, ghost stories came from the truth.
…
The wind was still blowing, and the ship sailed quickly and smoothly.
The atmosphere on the deck returned to normal, as if the battle and the death of the first mate did not happen.
This was how pirates were. They would never grieve for a person for too long, no matter who that person was …
"Bastards! The fight is about to start! If you want to place your bets, come over quickly! "
As dusk approached, a hoarse voice suddenly let out such a loud shout.
In a split second, the surrounding pirates were in an uproar.
Previously, in the conflict with the Mad Eye Pirates, the players had naturally completed the mission [board the enemy's ship and kill at least three enemy sailors] (The mission only required one out of three players to board the enemy's ship, and the total number of kills exceeded three). Now, the second side mission that needed to be completed on the ship — [Participate in the fight on the deck and defeat the 'Vikings'] — was finally placed in front of them …
After hearing the announcement, Feng Bujue and the others followed the crowd and gathered at an empty space in the middle of the deck.
Unknowingly, someone had used wooden barrels, sacks, and boxes to create a space similar to a 'fighting ring.'
"Come, come, come. Those who want to bet, hurry up. If you're a man, don't waste time."
At this moment, the person standing on top of a box and shouting was Brother Jue and the others recognized. It was the small steel cannon like 'Brother Body Hair.'
Behind him, the two who were responsible for collecting, keeping accounts, and counting money were Godfrey wearing a blue headscarf and the leader of the trio, 'Garlic.'
When fighting with the Mad Eye Pirates, and when besieging the parasites, Feng Bujue took the time to pay attention to the movements of the three … He unexpectedly found that the three people were very desperate in the 'external' battle, and their strength was very strong.
Perhaps it was for this reason that the ship's officers … and Blackbeard, adopted an attitude of turning a blind eye to the behavior of the three people who carried out the 'gambling business' on the ship.
"Is there anyone else who wants to bet? If not, let's start. "
The efficiency of the trio was very high. Obviously, they were quite familiar with the business. In about five minutes, they finished collecting the bets.
Then, Brother Body Hair shouted twice. After confirming that there were no more bets, he turned his head and winked at a man standing in the middle of the ring.
That man was the one with the hoarse voice who had shouted the first time and gathered everyone over.
At the same time, he was also the lead singer who led everyone to sing the ship's song in the opening CG …
This man looked to be in his forties. He was wearing a dirty and wrinkled white shirt, a red and yellow vest, and a pair of loose and light black trousers. Perhaps it was because his trousers were once very expensive, or perhaps it was because he only had one pair of trousers … In any case, his trousers were heavily patched, and from the rough stitches … it was most likely patched by him himself.
"Greedy villains! Twice a week, the time you look forward to the most has arrived... "After receiving the signal from Brother Body Hair, the hoarse voice immediately began his provocative opening speech.
It must be admitted that … this man's voice and speech were first-class, and he definitely had no problem being a professional host.
"Today's first match, as announced last time, will be dedicated by two rookies who have just joined the pirate group for a month …"
Before his voice fell, the two participating sailors had already "entered the ring" from both sides of the "ring".
The two didn't say much. After entering the ring, they first took off their shirts, and then provoked each other with their faces. It can be said that they instantly entered the "competition state".
"Let's welcome …" The hoarse voice also introduced in a timely manner, "'Bottle Opener'! And … 'Triceratops'! "
