I think you can't even imagine the happiness of a warlock.

Even though Chen Zhou was far away from the deck, he still couldn't survive this battle alone.

"...Simple, just let me break your hands and jaw and I will believe you."

"Don't... don't... please! Magic is the whole meaning of my life, and I am willing to pay any price for it!"

As soon as he entered the cargo hold, he heard bursts of conversation coming from inside.

Is there anyone else besides Old Setan?

The noise of the melee on the deck made it difficult to hear what was said deep in the cargo hold. Driven by curiosity, Chen Zhou slowly walked down the stairs.

Then he saw the old mage kneeling down tremblingly in front of a strange sailor wearing a sea soul shirt.

The latter heard the sound coming from not far away, and carefully stepped on the old mage who seemed to have no intention of resisting to prevent the other party from casting a spell to kill him, and then hurriedly turned around to look at the person.

After just one meeting, Chen Zhou, Sailor and Lao Saitan all felt secretly frightened.

Chen Zhou was shocked to see that the other party had a fierce and ferocious killing intent on his face, and the scimitar in his hand was dripping with blood, glowing slightly in the dark. His whole person exuded an aura similar to that of the warriors in the caravan.

He is a Black Sail Pirate, and he is also a professional on the combat side!

Although I don’t know what level the opponent is, he is definitely stronger than me who is only level 1!

The pirates were shocked that in the chamber of commerce belonging to the dwarves, there was an orc who had a feud with the dwarves, and even an extremely rare tiger man.

Judging from the opponent's physique, he is obviously an adult. An adult orc is at least an entry-level or even a formal warrior.

The opponent's hair, which seemed to be shining brightly in the dim light, was well maintained, without any scars or defects, which meant that the opponent had never suffered major damage in the battle so far, which showed the opponent's fighting ability.

As for Old Setan, what was surprising was that Tom actually returned and returned to the cabin with weapons.

In this way, I, who was captured by the pirates and almost crippled by the pirates out of fear, could be saved!

He glanced at the pirate who was standing on top of him, holding a spell book in one hand and a scimitar in the other, who was on alert.

Old Setan flipped through the worn and wide cuffs with extremely small movements, and secretly grabbed the scroll hidden within easy reach.

What if the mage has few spell slots? As long as he uses this scroll prepared in advance, he can solve the current dilemma!

Chen Zhou: It’s over, I’m going to die!

Pirate: It's over, I'm going to die!

Setan: Yes, I can fight back!

Facing the pirates who were always on guard against him, Chen Zhou felt that he could neither advance nor retreat.

The sound of fighting also came from the aisle behind him.

There is 1 professional pirate in the front, and N professional pirates + non-professional pirates in the back. How to choose?

Although he didn't know what to choose, in case someone suddenly opened the cargo door and stabbed him from behind, Chen Zhou had no choice but to continue walking down the stairs slowly.

Seeing the Khajiit, who was holding a shield and a boarding ax and whose arms were thicker than his own thighs, approach him with flashing eyes and a ferocious expression, the pirate quickly shouted: "Stop! Otherwise I will kill this old guy!"

After saying that, he put the machete against the neck of Old Setan.

"Don't kill me! I can do whatever you ask me to do!" The latter quickly gave the tiger man who rescued him a look, telling him not to be impulsive and to act according to the opportunity.

Speaking of which... Old Setan noticed from the corner of his eye that the shimmering scimitar in the pirate's hand seemed to be a secondary magic weapon, a low-end product that could be the same as a magic weapon after being activated for a limited number of times.

Fortunately, he still had the time to pay attention to the weapons in other people's hands at this time.

Chen Zhou: What does Lao Saitan mean? After watching me and looking at the scimitar, is he asking me to knock the scimitar away? Does he have a scroll that can kill the opponent instantly?

In any case, he had to stop at the bilge only five meters away from the pirates.

Pirate: Isn’t this distance a little bad? It can rush over and kill me in less than a second!

"Retreat! Retreat! Retreat!" he shouted in a demonstration, "Otherwise I will kill him now."

As he spoke, the pirate stepped harder with his feet, causing old Setan to suffer so much pain that he almost fell into coma.

Seeing Chen Zhou thoughtfully, he vaguely felt that the other party seemed a little afraid of him?

No, it should be an illusion. The other party should just be wary of the mage.

After all, everyone knows that mage is a profession that can create miracles.

Setan: Quick...save me...I'm going to die...

Chen Zhou stood still and refused to give in. If he really retreated, the other party would have more opportunities to attack the mage.

"You can try to kill Old Setan." He analyzed calmly, "But if you attack him, you will be the one who dies in the end."

Hearing this, the pirate frowned and raised his feet slightly to give the mage some breathing room.

That's right, if you kill the mage, without the hostage to threaten you, you will only end up dying miserably.

Setan: Peace.jpg

Deep in the dim cargo hold, the three people with their own thoughts stared at each other closely, and they were all extremely tangled in their hearts.

Chen Zhou believed that the pirates could kill him but was afraid of Setan. The pirates believed that the Khajiit could kill him but wanted to save the mage. The latter hoped that the two would fight quickly to give him a chance to get the scroll and settle the matter.

The fighting outside was still going on, but none of them knew who would push open the cargo door next.

Are they Black Sails Pirates? Or the Eight Kings Chamber of Commerce?

In any case, none of the three people intend to leave their life or death to luck.

Seeing that Tom never made any move, Old Setan kept giving the other party hints with his eyes, asking him to try to open up the situation.

Chen Zhou, who could roughly understand the other party's meaning, just frowned. He had never had a fight since he was a child, and the biggest thing he killed was mosquitoes. He really didn't know what to do in this situation.

As for the pirate, his eyes flickered as he looked at the tiger man who was calm and collected, looking down upon him to the point where he didn't even put up a fighting stance and almost had flaws all over his body.

The opponent's appearance, demeanor, and temperament were all excellent. Even in such a fierce battle, he strolled around without any care. When facing a pirate like himself, he showed no emotion at all.

Actually there is, but it's blocked by fur.

Not only that, he felt a trace of aloofness and pampering engraved in the bones of the tiger man, as if he and the mage were regarded as uncivilized primitive people.

The Eight Kings' caravan came from the north this time. Could it be that this was a noble from the Prairie Empire or even a relative of the emperor?

if it is like this……

Just as he was thinking this, Chen Zhou's keen perception derived from his new body allowed him to notice the pirate's emotional relief.

The pirates seem to have lost their hostility towards themselves?

In his peripheral vision, Old Setan was still giving crazy hints with his eyes.

Chen Zhou finally recalled the other party's instructions before he left.

So that's the case, no wonder Old Setan has been staring at the opponent's scimitar.

Chen Zhou understood and finally took action.

Upon noticing the tiger man's movements, the pirates also anxiously took the lead!

I saw both of them loosening their hands, throwing the weapons/shields in their hands on the ground at the same time, and each saluted the other with the military salute of the Kingdom of Carlos——

"I surrender!"*2

Setan: "Huh?"

"?"

Seeing the pirates abandoning their weapons and surrendering to him without any warning, Chen Zhou understood everything instantly.

His legs suddenly exerted force, and he easily crossed the five-meter distance between the two parties in just one step, punching the opponent in the stomach!

"He's not Liuli!"
