Dawn of the Grey Tower

Networms do not like the sea breeze, especially the sea breeze in Frustration Bay. She always felt that she could smell the rancid smell of corpses in this wind, and today, she feels right.

"What crime did they commit?" The tamer raises his head, looking at something hanging on the high wooden frame by the sea and asking the witch beside him. Hella, wrapped in large clothes, carefully lowered the hood of her hood with her hands and looked up at the corpses, but before she could speak, the other one was a little rough and dissatisfied with a clear voice.

"Did you see the bleeding on them? These people were hung up after being alive. Here, it means that they have touched the rights of the witch adults. They sell wine privately." Captain Halfdan's expression Somewhat gloomy. The owner of the Black Arrow has been busy disappearing this month, and both Net Worm and Lothar have almost forgotten his existence. In fact, in this month, the influence of the name of Halfdan is rapidly spreading in this city, the honor of the first returnee is only a stepping stone, when smugglers and those who monopolize most of the money flow in Lost Bay After the marauders really knew the captain of the Black Arrow, the latter's agility and cunning made them start to have a higher evaluation of him.

"I heard that people will not die soon after bleeding." Net Worm frowned. She had not seen the dead or the prisoner, but just instinctively hated the cruel punishment. This is also a normal idea. For the life that exists in this world, what kind of sin is not enough to be repaid by death? But the fact is that in many cases, death is not enough to satisfy people, and what the punisher wants is more distorted, brutal, and chilling torture.

"Accurately, three days. It's just that those guys had been sentenced before, and they won't be able to die at noon the next day. They died there." The captain said, pointing in a direction with his chin, looking in this direction, You can see several simple crosses erected on the pier, and still the shocking blood stains prove their use.

This brutal punishment reminded the Net Worm of the corpses of the Ratmen at the door of some towns after the Ratmen Plague. But that is the punishment for non-human monsters, at least in the eyes of the punisher, and should not be used on his own kin. This not only made the maid soldiers doubt whether she was deceived by the appearance of the witch, but the characters displayed by Hella and Peg made her forget that the witch is a species that is different from humans and frustrated. Hella apparently also realized that witnessing such a scenario was harmful to the Networm's answer to her request. She immediately tried to defend herself and her peers, "The penalty for the loss of heart is the joint captains and the witch corps. It was deliberated that most of the penalty makers were not witches. "

The captain glanced at the woman walking next to the networm. Because of the hood, he did not recognize the other party ’s witch status. "You know a lot, but do you know the status of the captains when these penalties were imposed? They could It ’s not sitting on the same table as the witch. Each of them has a knife behind them. The poor guys have to search the stomach and list all the horrible punishments they know into the so-called special cases. It ’s ridiculous that in the end, many of them were tortured to death by what they wrote. The rules here are very few, but only for those of us. Once you touch the black cat and the daughter of the raven For our benefit, the laws here will be tougher than any country you know. "

"Otherwise, what kind of place do you expect Frustration Bay to become? A country with strict laws and stable order? The style here is not because you sailors never want to be bound by any rules." Hella's voice raised It was a little higher, but it quickly went down after I realized this.

Halfdan raised his eyebrows and looked at the hide-and-seek woman, smiled, and said to the networm, "I didn't believe it when they told me that things were gathered together. Now it looks right. You are the strangest I've ever seen. Woman, and now you can only be one. "

The maid lifted her lips slightly, "And I don't regret this, Mr. Captain. You are just too few women you have seen before, or you don't want to know them, so in your eyes, women It's all the same. If you really want to listen to them, you will find that we are not special. "

"Anyway, I have been tired of dealing with the sea in my life. Those poets always like to compare you to the sea. A sailor can't control two waters at the same time." Halfdan waved his hand from the inside of his jacket In his pocket, a thing wrapped in dark brown paper, like a human finger, was put into his mouth. Then he took out a small metal box from the pocket on the other side and put it to the end of something like a finger to open it. With a crisp sound, the cyan flame ignited the object in the captain's mouth, raising gray smoke.

The captain took a deep breath and exhaled two plumes of smoke from his nose. "This thing is more powerful than a pipe, but the price is not much cheaper than whale fat. By the way, since I saw you, how about the Tarantula kid? Work with him The fat man said that he has n’t seen him in two days. What you say is also me. If you have any trouble, you can still tell me. "

The Networm nodded slightly. She was still grateful for Haddan's words. To be fair, if she picked up two unknown people on the trip, she would not provide so much help like the captain. And this may be the unique habit of sailors. On the sea, you can only trust the partners of the same ship, so the relationship between the crew on the ship with relatively few crew movements will not be at least inferior to the brothers even if they can't reach the family.

"Relax, he's okay. Just go into the mountains and get some wood." Desperate Bay's demand for wood can be said to be endless. At any time, a large number of logging teams entered the nearby mountains to search for available wood. It's just that the steep and steep mountains surrounding the bay are also destined to not have too much harvest every time. Therefore, a logging team often does not rush to start in one go, but considers it among several promising logs, so the length of going into the mountain varies.

"Really? Then his heart is really big, so just putting you on the dock alone is not afraid of something. Even if you can fight again, there are always many things to seek revenge on the dock. You better be careful." The captain ’s words are not unreasonable ~ www.readwn.com ~ Although networms are also famous for fighting on the docks, they ca n’t beat their opponents. If someone really wants to hurt her, the safety of the maid is really a piece of cake. Say something bad, especially if she is still pregnant.

"Thank you for your care again, but look, do n’t I have to go out? This lady hired me to do something for her, and he should be back when this is done."

The captain nodded and said no more. He didn't need to remind the Networm to be careful. Here, everyone is responsible for his own life, and no one can blame others if they fail. Since Net Worth believed that the women around her were credible, Halfdan would have no other ideas.

The two ladies said goodbye to the captain of the Black Arrow, and gradually left the dock area, heading towards the interior of Frustration Bay. At this time, Hella asked the Net Worm with a bit of curiosity, "Aren't you worried about the safety of the tarantula? Although Ms. Fetis was involved in this operation, exploring that place is still very dangerous. . "

The female mercenary glanced at her employer. "There is nothing to worry about. What the man has done before will not be safer than what he has done now. Since ghouls, demons, and ratmen cannot capture him What about a hole in your life? Besides, is this kind of thing worrying about changing the result? "
