Late at night.
Without anyone noticing, Yi Lin slipped into his old father's room and removed the treasure key made of pure gold from Swan's neck. Old Swan was still sitting and dreaming, sleeping soundly.
"It's really secretive."
When Irin entered the so-called "very secretive treasure house," she couldn't help but secretly sigh.
It was indeed very secretive.
If Old Swan hadn't described it so clearly, Irin might not have been able to find it for a while.
In addition to a box of bright gold coins, the Swan family's treasure house also collected a lot of antique paintings, which looked valuable.
Irin took out some of the cans in the storage space and exchanged them for gold coins. She found that the room next door was the Swan family's wine cellar.
[Get "Collector's Wine" * 1]
[Get "Collector's Wine" * 1]
The cabinet full of wine was sealed in small wooden barrels and had not been sealed in glass bottles.
Irin stared at the wine and pondered.
A wonderful idea suddenly came into her mind.
The Apocalypse's mount, Nightingale, had its satiety reduced to about 30% during the sea journey after the Queen sank.
At first, Yi Lin was puzzled as to what the satiety of a motorcycle was.
Irin had inquired that in addition to the strange technology tree of the Governor's Office, the world was still in the era of burning coal, and there were no large-scale oil fields.
— That is to say, there was no way to refuel Nightingale.
But Irin was very skeptical. Was Nightingale really powered by fuel?
After all, it was not an ordinary mount.
"Satiety … Satiety?"
Irin silently summoned the motorcycle.
The moment the summoning skill was launched, a crack appeared in the void behind Irin out of thin air. Countless glowing cubes appeared from the crack and re-converged into the shape of a motorcycle.
Nightingale was now out of the category of "mount prop." With the blessing of the Horseman of the Apocalypse module, it had completely become an existence similar to a "summon."
"Maybe it works?"
Irin pondered for a moment. After fully considering the consequences, she opened the fuel cap and directly added the [Collector's Wine].
— Full.
She didn't know if it was an illusion.
Irin had a feeling that Nightcrawler burped contentedly after filling her glass with wine.
Irin opened Nightingale's panel and saw that the [Satiety] column had returned to 100%, just as he had expected. Only then did he put Nightingale away in satisfaction.
Hmm, maybe I can feed him rum?
If I save a little more, I might be able to feed it with seawater.
Next time, I can try grinding black bread into powder and stuffing it in.
Or perhaps a roasted chicken thigh?
Irin habitually thought of all sorts of possibilities.
He pondered for a long time.
Irin concluded, "The more unscientific something is, the more unscientific it needs to be treated, such as using wine as fuel."
After feeding the Nightingale, Irin had completed another preparation.
"Next …"
In the darkness of the night, Yi Lin's eyes sparkled, revealing an amused light.
Ever since the skeleton gentleman blew up a hole in the Governor's Mansion and escaped unscathed from Tiramisu's Magic Gun in full view of the public, the entire city of London was in a tense atmosphere for several days.
Irin, Ruth, and Wang Tiandi left London in a luxurious carriage. Ruth's face was full of surprise.
"Ling, how do you know that the Navy won't lock down London?"
"I know, do you think the Navy doesn't care about their reputation?"
Ruth heard this and slowly typed a question mark: "?"
Irin laughed: "No matter how secretive the skeleton gentleman is, even if he blows up the Navy's headquarters to the ground, the Navy won't do anything to lock down the city. A large-scale search of the city is just for show."
"The skeleton gentleman hasn't appeared in the past few days, which is exactly what they want. After the incident, they can casually do some public relations and announce that the skeleton gentleman has fled back to the sea under the powerful attack of the Navy. Wouldn't that be a happy ending? At worst, they can just raise the bounty after the incident."
"Besides …" Irin smiled and patted Wang Tiandi's head: "The Navy won't have the courage to lock down the city for a damned pirate."
In the carriage.
Wang Tiandi raised his eyelids in dissatisfaction.
But he didn't know if it was because of Irin's technique, but three circles to the left and three circles to the right made the dog feel very comfortable. Although he felt embarrassed, the dog still narrowed his eyes in satisfaction and withdrew his paws.
Ruth suddenly understood.
Da da da.
The luxurious carriage stopped by the side of the road.
Irin smiled and took out a gold coin, told the coachman to wait there, and then walked to the beach with Ruth.
The coachman happily put away the gold coin and secretly sighed in his heart. Rich young ladies really know how to have fun, choosing such a desolate beach for an outing … What a problem.
But in this world, who would have a problem with money?
The coachman excitedly put the gold coin in his mouth and bit down hard, leaving a shallow bite mark on the gold coin.
On the other side.
In the small forest.
"I'll leave you here."
Irin used psychokinesis to explore the area in front of them. After finding no other dangers, he turned around and said to Ruth.
Ruth's body trembled.
Although she already had a clear plan with Irin, and Ruth had already made up her mind, when it came to it, Ruth couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.
Irin patted Ruth's shoulder and comforted her: "Don't worry, it's much safer for a woman to go on a voyage than two women."
Ruth: "…"
Is this what I'm worried about?
Ruth began to chatter and complain.
"Do you know how difficult it is for a woman to go on a voyage?
"Do you know how difficult it is for a woman to face the merciless storm, the greedy pirates, and the ruthless Navy? Oh, damn it, you really do understand …
"How am I going to survive the long night of loneliness and emptiness?"
Irin directly ignored Ruth and squatted down to negotiate with the dog.
Wang Tiandi silently raised his dog head.
"We agreed on a box of high-quality ham and a box of marinated meat bones. They're all custom-made and of the highest quality."
Wang Tiandi suddenly lowered his dog head as if he was hesitating.
"What the f * ck?" Irin looked at the dog's expression and roughly guessed what the dog was thinking: "Don't tell me you changed your mind at the last minute?"
The dog grinned, revealing his sharp canine teeth.
Irin was silent for a moment, then stretched out a finger and shook it in front of the dog. He lowered his voice and said: "You should be living in the zoo now? I'll send you the address later. As long as you can find it, you'll be provided with food and accommodation for a month. You'll be treated like a rich pet. You'll be able to eat high-quality meat, drink iced fresh milk, and lie in a slippery dog kennel. Hmm, it shouldn't be difficult for you to escape, right? "
The dog's eyes lit up and flashed with a green light. After a few seconds of silence, he stretched out a paw.
As everyone knew, a dog's paw only had four fingers. As if that wasn't enough, the dog stretched out his other paw and strangely broke off two fingers.
Irin realized that Wang Tiandi's paw could really be made into such a gesture.
So the middle finger emoji that day wasn't a bluff?
Irin's mouth twitched slightly: "You're actually raising the price?"
The dog didn't bark and raised another paw.
"Deal!"
Irin instantly agreed.
…
On this remote coast.
In a small forest.
In the bushes.
There were a few figures carefully hidden.
"The captain hasn't arrived yet?"
Sachs looked nervous as he stared at the ship in the distance.
That was a mid-level sailboat with the Skeleton Flag. In the pirate circle, there weren't any secrets. One could find out where all the pirate ships were docked in the tavern.
Hence, in the pirate circle, it was a common thing to have a pirate ship stolen.
"Ah —"
Old Gibbs held a bottle of rum that only had half of it left in his hand.
A look of reminiscence appeared on his aged face. He let out a long sigh, and the aftertaste was endless.
This kid really looked like Captain Jack!
Those thick lips were obviously inherited from Elizabeth!
Old Gibbs couldn't help but reminisce about the extraordinary days of adventuring on the sea. In the next second, he couldn't help but sympathize with the tragic fate of the ship in front of him.
"It's normal, normal …"
Old Gibbs muttered softly.
Just like Captain Jack back then, if he wasn't looking for the Black Pearl, he was on the way to find the Black Pearl.
"Burp ~"
Around Old Gibbs and Sachs were squatting Charlie and a few other pirates who used to stay on the Queen.
They were also lucky enough to survive that terrifying hurricane.
Suddenly.
Crack, crack, crack.
The sound of leather shoes breaking branches came from behind Sachs and the others.
They were waiting for the captain to appear. When they heard the footsteps, they all looked back at the same time.
They saw a man in a bright and beautiful tuxedo with a dog at his feet. He walked toward them with the posture of an emperor walking his dog.
"Great, great Captain!" Charlie reacted instantly, stuttering as he tried to flatter the captain that he was not very familiar with.
The others had different expressions.
Sachs frowned and felt that it was a little strange.
Old Gibbs glanced at the "Skeleton Gentleman" and sized him up. It was as if he wanted to compare the man in front of him with the legend. He wanted to determine if the man in front of him was as frightening as the rumors said.
A trace of doubt flashed in the hearts of the other pirates. After all, they had stayed on the ship for a month and were very familiar with the Skeleton Gentleman's behavior. They just felt that after not seeing him for a few days, the aura of the Skeleton Gentleman seemed to have weakened a little. They didn't know if it was an illusion.
However, the others didn't think too much about it. They took out simple flintlocks and knives, rubbed their palms, and prepared to do what pirates were familiar with.
And at this moment.
Wang Tiandi slowly took a step forward. All the hair on his body stood on end. He was majestic like a dog.
Under the astonished gazes of the others, Wang Tiandi swam to the side of the ship and nimbly climbed up the deck along the anchor chain.
Bang!
Dong!
Ka.
"Ah —"
After Wang Tiandi got on the ship, there were faint sounds of smashing, bones breaking, vomiting blood, and screams coming from the ship in the distance.
Five minutes later.
All the sounds became silent.
Thousands of words finally converged into an aggrieved and broken voice. "Long live the Skeleton Gentleman Captain! The Skeleton Gentleman Captain is awesome — "
"The honorable dog is awesome!"
Sachs, Old Gibbs, and the others looked at each other.
At the same time.
Irin had already sat in a luxurious carriage and elegantly returned to London.
As for Ruth's side, Wang Tiandi was looking after her, so Irin wasn't too worried.
If she really encountered a shipwreck that the dog couldn't resist … that was fate.
Although Wang Tiandi was a dog, he still had a main mission. There was no relationship between who helped who. It was all because of the mission and benefits.
A few years later, there would be a popular bragging line. "As long as I have enough death points and equipment, I will even dare to touch the butt of the Horseman of the Apocalypse. Even Jesus can't stop me. I said it!"
Not long after Irin returned to Swann Castle.
What surprised him was that the death mark on his chest started to vibrate like a small motor.
The next day.
Based on pirate customs, the heads that Gou 'zi killed weren't counted as Elizabeth Ling's head.
Maybe it was because Gou 'zi was both an apostle and a crew member.
On the captain's panel, Irin had a new small boat that had sailed out of the vast Caribbean Sea.
Irin's new boat had a very auspicious name.
"NeverSink" (Never Sink).
Of course, whether it sank or not wasn't decided by the boat. It was purely for peace of mind.
Just like Norland's Lucky. Not long after carrying the woman, it encountered a storm and sank in the middle of the ocean. It wasn't lucky at all.
Although Irin didn't go out to sea with the new boat, from the slight changes on the captain's panel, such as the degree of damage, the number of crew members, loyalty, resources, and other data, he could guess what happened to Ruth and the others.
Who said that a captain had to go out to sea with the ship to be called a captain?
Irin smiled as he walked down the carriage.
It had been five days since the explosion in the governor's manor.
In these five days, Irin didn't purposely come to the Navy headquarters to ask for information, so as not to give Gu Tianqing any information that could be used against him.
Gu Tianqing's poker face always gave Irin a very dangerous feeling.
But because Irin was in another timeline, he didn't have any contact with this person, so his understanding of Gu Tianqing was limited.
After all, he wasn't like Xiao Yang, who had a deep hatred for him.
Stepping into the Navy headquarters, no one stopped him.
Even the step of reporting inside was skipped. It was as if all the Navy had received the news that the governor's fiancee was coming today.
On the way, Irin also met some familiar people.
The polite and polite Norland.
As well as Vice Admiral Bopp, who was gritting his teeth.
The two of them looked at Irin with a strange expression.
This made Irin even more curious about Gu Tianqing's actions. He didn't know what methods that guy used.
The small motor vibrating last night was all because of the three messages that Gu Tianqing sent.
And the three messages were exactly the same.
They were all experienced apostles, so Gu Tianqing seemed to have a deep understanding of the unwritten rule of "important things must be said three times."
— "If you want to do the main mission, come to the meeting room."
The door of the meeting room was ajar.
Before Irin entered, he habitually used his telekinesis to sense around.
He didn't find any strange traps.
If he had to say something strange, it would be the people in the meeting room.
Irin took a look and couldn't help but smile. It was obvious that something big was going to happen in front of him.
There were five people in the room. It could be said that the upper echelons of the Navy gathered together.
When Irin stepped into the meeting room, he already skillfully displayed his acting skills, "Hey, how are you guys ~ Eh? Why are you, the man with an unclear relationship with Robert, also here? "
Governor: "…"
Gu Tianqing: "…"
Pa.
Deep V Admiral Tiramisu's small mouth opened into a shape that could take in a lot of content, and the pipe in his mouth fell on the round table.
The Governor-General, who was wrapped in bandages, spoke in a tone that brooked no argument. He seemed to be emotionless as he said, "Elizabeth Lin Swan, there is an operation that I hope you can participate in …"
Ten minutes later.
Irin smiled and agreed, "Okay, I don't have any sailing experience, I hope you guys don't mind. Also, there is an ancient legend on the sea that bringing a woman on board will bring bad luck, I don't know if it is true or not? "
Sitting opposite Tiramisu was a handsome man with long blonde hair. He replied elegantly, "Charming lady, you can rest assured. Our ship is not something that Norland's little guy can compare to. No matter how fierce the storm is, it won't shake us in the slightest. We are truly the unrivalled overlords of the sea."
Tiramisu smoked again and slowly blew out a strange smoke ring, "Macchiato is right, we don't have to worry about storms and disasters at sea. Don't forget, I am a woman too."
From the conversation just now, Irin also successfully read the identities of the other two admirals.
Macchiato, long blonde hair, handsome face, elegant manner with a hint of coquettishness, highly suspected to be a womanizer.
Cappuccino, short blonde hair, silent, almost did not express any personal opinions during the conversation, his personality was hard to fathom.
Irin secretly wondered if the two admirals, Macchiato and Cappuccino, had the same strange high-tech weapons as Tiramisu?
It seemed that the last [Bullet Deflection] Riddler Buff Card had to be used on the edge of the blade and could not be wasted easily.
Otherwise, Irin might not be able to completely ignore Tiramisu's sniping if she was not on guard.
After a short discussion, Elizabeth Lin's fiancé, the Governor, who was full of the style of the underworld, did not even look at Elizabeth Lin and left alone.
Irin felt that something was not right.
Although he had deliberately made a round of probing at that time, the marriage between this mysterious governor and Elizabeth Ling was full of strangeness.
Moreover, Irin was also very concerned about something.
Something that made Irin extremely afraid, and after deducing, she came to a conclusion but found it hard to believe.
The three admirals also left the meeting room one after another.
Irin looked at the calm Gu Tianqing. To be safe, in order to avoid any listening devices in the meeting room, Irin smiled on the surface and maintained a distance from Gu Tianqing, gracefully saying goodbye. However, behind her back, she quickly used the apostle's method to secretly contact Gu Tianqing.
…
Irin: You are not bad, you actually managed to convince them to bring me on board? Seems like I owe you a favor? (Smile)
Gu Tianqing: I personally like to deal with people who know themselves very well.
Irin: They are preparing to go out to sea to find the Demon King?
Gu Tianqing: Since you already have a conclusion, be more confident and remove the question mark, heh. (Smile)
Irin: Why are you in such a hurry?
Gu Tianqing: Hehe, it is master's mission, who knows.
Irin:?
Gu Tianqing: I am talking about this.
Irin: Hehe, without the compass you mentioned, how can the navy find the Demon King?
Gu Tianqing: Maybe they have a backup plan.
Irin: Silently thumbs up.
Gu Tianqing: As long as you are on board, you will be able to join the "Navy" camp with a certain identity. At least in this world, we are not enemies.
Irin: Of course!
Gu Tianqing: … You said it so straightforwardly that it is hard for me to believe!
Irin: You flatter me, same to you.
Gu Tianqing: …
…
After hurriedly ending the banter with Gu Tianqing, Irin closed the communication panel and lowered her head to think.
Sure enough, this guy wasn't someone who could be easily fooled. Yi Lin wanted to ask about Gu Tianqing's ability in passing, but that guy easily changed the topic and changed the topic.
But no matter what, Gu Tianqing added fuel to the fire in the navy, which saved Irin a lot of effort.
Irin originally wanted to find a way to mix into the navy's upper echelons and further get in touch with the main mission of the navy camp.
But now, there was no need for that.
Whether it was the deal with Calypso or the main mission, it was as if there was an invisible hand pushing everything onto a certain existence.
– "The Demon King."
Irin was very curious, what kind of monster could make so many people so afraid.
In this trial, the compass was definitely not the only method to find the Demon King.
Irin speculated that Gu Tianqing did not know that he already had the compass, but she still chose to go out at this time to find the Demon King. She must have found another way to open the door.
As for the second main mission of the pirates, Irin had a headache every time he thought about it.
Now that Irin had mixed into the navy camp with his original identity, he was not 100% sure that he could change his identity and accept the mission here.
But on Ruth's side, Irin also left a follow-up record, so he didn't worry too much.
If he couldn't complete the second main mission, it would be nothing more than a failure of the mission and an unknown curse.
The curse of this world was like a mosquito bite, after a lot of bites, it would not hurt anymore.
After going through the clues of the current mission, Irin began to seriously think about Gu Tianqing's plan.
In the carriage, Irin was silent all the way, he lowered his head and thought for nearly half an hour.
"Why does the dessert that is sent to my mouth always feel poisonous? Oh, this damn gentleness. "
Irin laughed, using a voice that only he could hear, he whispered in the narrow and luxurious carriage cabin, saying an inexplicable translation accent.
Three days later.
Port Royal.
Ten warships that seemed to have traveled through time and space, across time, stopped here.
These ten warships, no one knew where they came from. When the sky lit up, the citizens of London could already hear the loud sound of the warships breaking through the air, resounding through the hazy London sky.
Discerning people could see at a glance that these ten warships had a very deep draft. The warships were surrounded by iron armor, and the armor had anti-rust treatment. Under the light of the rising sun, the exterior of the warships reflected a dazzling seven-colored light, making people click their tongues in amazement.
In this era where sailing was the main power, the appearance of ten warships, to ordinary citizens, was no different from a bloody menstrual towel left in the men's toilet, with seven parts surprise and three parts strangeness, it attracted the attention of countless citizens and reporters, and it was difficult to disperse for a long time.
Irin, in the crowd, frowned.
Last night, when the strange whistling sound came from the sea, Irin already felt that it was strange.
But when Yi Lin was about to go out to find out what was going on, she found that the entire Swan Castle had been secretly surrounded, as if they were afraid that Elisabeth Lin would play another disappearance before sailing, affecting the whole plan.
In order to avoid alerting the enemy, Irin, who wanted to go out to investigate, quietly went back into the castle.
Seeing today, he did not expect that these ten warships were the source of the distant whistling sound last night.
"This is the strength of the navy?"
Irin lowered his head and thought: "Looking at it this way, other than the navy having fewer people and being more disciplined than the pirates, the fighting power of these two factions is completely incomparable?"
He started to regret, did he choose the wrong faction at the beginning?
Or could it be that there was some other unknown trick involved in all of this?
In his view, this kind of imbalance in the number of apostles, the difference in the technological level of the two factions, was simply a joke.
With all kinds of doubts, Irin, under the escort of the navy, boarded the center of the ten warships, which looked the most domineering.
The name of the warship was interesting.
— — "Lucky Person 2."
