I'm a trainee crew on a pirate ship [West Fantasy]

Chapter 63 Mr. Merlin's Request

"Sacrificing an elf? Does it mean dedicating an elf? Am I right?" Luo Zhi repeated what the necromancer said in his heart, his stunned blue eyes were filled with blankness, and he still hadn't reacted. what's going on.

When the necromancer spoke, Luo Zhi used the "General Knowledge Charm" without hesitation. Facing the envoy of the black wizard of Zijin Island, he didn't allow himself to be like a fool who couldn't understand anything.

At this moment, after savoring what the necromancer said in his mind, Luo Zhi suddenly understood, trembling all over, and the blankness in his eyes was instantly covered by panic.

What's the difference between devotion and sacrifice?

The elf is talking about himself?

He suddenly turned his head to look at Sig Capet, and was dazed for two seconds. His bright blue eyes suddenly expanded, instantly dyed dark blue, and became dark. There was a look of shock, panic, and disbelief in them.

The captain knows the dark wizard, the captain has contacts with the dark wizard, the captain brought him to meet the dark wizard, is he using him as a bargaining chip to make a deal with the dark wizard?

Along the way, the captain treated guests to dinner, and popularized secret knowledge of science. The captain is so generous, but it’s just for the sake of high interests later to stabilize him.

A meal in a tavern was his last supper!

"Fuck! Good you pirate leader! I tried my best to be your bodyguard, but you want to sell me!" Luo Zhi, who recognized the truth, cursed angrily in his heart, and at the same time felt sad, disappointed, and wronged .

He always thinks that the captain is different, different from other pirates, he is an adventurer who wears the title of pirate, and he gets along very well with the crew. The captain is injured again, he wants to help the captain, and he doesn’t want to leave ruthlessly when the captain is in trouble, so he It was too late to disembark.

Nowadays, it can be said that people have been familiar with people for a long time. Pirates are pirates. What kind of illusions does he have about pirates, thinking that he understands them...

Luo Zhi looked at Sig Capet, and the more he thought about it, the more panicked he became. His blue eyes were rippling with several turbulent waves. He acted subconsciously, retreating hastily, just wanting to stay away from danger.

Shocked, Luo Zhi forgot the environment he was in for a moment. The place where he could step on the boat was uneven. As he stepped back, his feet touched the wall of the boat. Suddenly, his body shook, and then he lost his balance and fell backwards. go.

"Ah~" He screamed, and subconsciously spread his arms and swayed in the air, like the helpless posture of a person who can't swim and struggles for help after falling into the water, very embarrassed.

Sig Capet looked at the terrified Luo Zhi calmly, the bright green pupils under the black eyelashes dimmed slightly for a moment, and an inaudible sigh overflowed from the squirming corners of his lips.

Unhurriedly, he stretched out his long arms towards Luo Zhi, then grabbed the flustered hand, and pulled back the man who was about to fall into the water with ease.

"Captain..." Luo Zhi blinked, a gleam flashed in his blue eyes.

Luo Zhi's unbalanced body slammed into Sig Capet due to inertia, and the captain stood still. In a hurry, Luo Zhi grabbed the captain's arm to stabilize his body.

He blinked, turned his bright blue eyes, paused, raised his eyes, and bumped into Sig Capet's bright green eyes.

He saw that the captain's calm and clear eyes clearly reflected his own figure, and the green eyes were vaguely showing helplessness, as if he was looking at a child who was having trouble.

Luo Zhi suddenly felt embarrassed, and he couldn't help feeling a little shame and self-blame in his calm and calm heart, his eyes flickered, and he looked away.

However, he was relieved.

Luo Zhi breathed a sigh of relief, his body relaxed as if he had just recovered from a serious illness, and his mentality was refreshed.

It was he who misunderstood the captain, and when the captain reached out to catch him, he felt the captain's mood.

Sig Capet was disappointed, disappointed in Luo Zhi, disappointed that his crew didn't believe him.

"Huh? Isn't it?" The necromancer standing still on the sea, from the interaction between Sig Capet and Luo Zhi, it seems that Sig didn't seem to have this intention, so he couldn't help being confused.

Luo Zhi felt the eyes of the necromancer's eyes fall on him, and the necromancer said in an unchanging voice: "That's it, heck~ I'm even more curious. You brought the elf to the residence of the black wizard, and it's not for a deal. Why? , may I hear your request, captain of our Queen?"

Sig Capet said calmly as usual: "I want to see Mr. Merlin, Alfred."

For Sig's ignorance, Alf was not unhappy, and his voice remained unchanged: "It's a pity, as long as you dedicate this elf, you can go in at will, any transaction can be successfully concluded, and you can also go to Mr. Merlin's book cave ..."

Luo Zhi couldn't listen anymore, and stared at the necromancer fiercely, and couldn't help but spit at him, "You impolite guy, don't say 'only', I'm a human, a, a, human !"

It must have been him just now, what did you say about consecrating the elves, causing yourself to misunderstand the captain, this guy deserves a beating, be careful he freezes him to death!

The air was silent for a second, and the gray and illusory figure of the necromancer seemed to freeze for a second. His empty eye sockets were aimed directly at Luo Zhi, and something seemed to be jumping deep in the hole.

"Giggle~" A gentle and weird laughter came from the pale and illusory figure, "This elf is so cute, I like it very much, what's your name?"

"Luo Zhi." Luo Zhi answered angrily, crossing his arms.

"Very good, Luo Zhi, Mr. Merlin must be very happy to see you." Alfred didn't keep Sig Capet waiting, he turned to Sig, and said in a strangely gentle voice, "Do something for Mr. Merlin For something, he will meet with you, and of course, he will pay you."

"What's the matter?" Sig's green eyes turned slightly, "As long as there is time, I will try my best."

There are still 11 and a half hours.

"Then it's up to you, I don't think it's a problem to add... an elf with your strength." Alfred paused and said, "Going west, there is a city-state called 'Nome', The lord there has a rare metal mineral called 'Pandora's Stone', no matter what you do, as long as you get that thing, bring it back and dedicate it to Mr. Merlin, your transaction will be completed smoothly."

"So, what about the information about the city-state and the lord?" Seeger agreed without thinking about it. He had no choice but this was also his opportunity, and he was already mentally prepared to fulfill the request put forward by the transaction partner.

Alf has already prepared the target information, "The lord's name is Samuel Sterling. He is an eighth-level earth elementalist. Nome City has contract rules. Wizards who enter Nome City will be sent from 6:6 am to [-]:[-] pm. The use of magic is prohibited during this period, and relatively, during this period, the city lord cannot kill wizards."

"Moreover, in Nome City, the power of wizards has been weakened as a whole. However, this does not seem to be the suppression of the contract rules, but the influence of the magic circle arranged by the city lord."

"In addition, the city lord has a personal guard, the knight guard. I heard that the weakest knight is also the silver knight, and the captain is the honor knight."

"This guard is a powerful knight group that directly obeys the city lord, so be careful."

"If there is no problem, I will wait here for your triumphant return."

Luo Zhi blinked, feeling that it was difficult. This rule that limits the power of wizards is really cunning. I don't know if this rule can limit himself who has unknown power.

Luo Zhi looked at the captain, and let the captain decide.

Sig listened to the information without any emotion, and then asked clearly, "What is that Pandora's Stone?"

Alf's pale and illusory figure swayed in the sea breeze, "Pandora's Stone, which is said to possess divine power, is a rare treasure obtained by Sterling from somewhere. The hiding place must be secret, and there will be no more information."

Sig didn't say any more, released the flying carpet, took the banana boat away after riding on it, and then flew in the direction of Nome.

Sitting on the flying carpet with Sig Capet, Luo Zhi looked at the pale figure that was gradually disappearing on the sea. After looking away, he saw the captain looking at him quietly, as if nothing had happened.

Luo Zhi suddenly felt embarrassed, his eyes flickered here and there, the person opposite was like a puppet, he didn't say anything, just looked at him quietly with his quiet green eyes.

This silent atmosphere really made Luo Zhi very uncomfortable, and it cannot be said that he did it on purpose.

Luo Zhi turned his head, trying to break the awkward silence, "How long will it take to go to Nome City?"

Sig Capet said in an unchanged voice: "At this speed, it may take two hours."

"Then..." Luo Zhi hurriedly took out his pocket watch, "It's 56:[-], and the prohibition time in Nome City will end in two hours, just in time."

Xige Bitong said calmly: "We can go early, get familiar with the environment there, consider how to do it, how to deal with the lord, successfully get the Pandora Stone, and return to Zijin Island before midnight."

Luo Zhi was stunned, his blue eyes were dim, and suddenly he felt that the task was heavy and almost impossible, because the captain...

Luo Zhi hesitated for a moment, and said tactfully but straightforward enough: "Captain, I have no confidence in this mission. The lord is an eighth-level earth elementalist. This is a rare elemental power. I don't know anything about this kind of elemental power." ..." Captain, do you understand?And Luo Zhi emphasized that he has no confidence in this mission, saying that he knows that the captain cannot use magic, and I am afraid that the contract rules of Nome City will not have any impact on the captain.

Seeger's expression remained unchanged, "I don't know either."

The corner of Luo Zhi's mouth twitched, and he almost rolled his eyes.

After thinking about it for a while, Luo Zhi braced himself to face it. Since he got on this flying carpet, it meant that he would help to the end.

Luo Zhi believes that if he quits halfway, the captain will not object, but knowing that it is dangerous for the captain to go to Nome City alone, how can he sit idly by?

"Captain, what kind of person is that Mr. Merlin?" Luo Zhi took the opportunity to understand what he wanted to know one by one, so as to figure out how to deal with it.

He thinks that dark wizards are not all bad, so they should not be preconceived. Since he thinks that the captain is different, then the person the captain deals with should not be too bad.

The hot wind in the sky blows Sig's red hair flying, covering his eyes. He raised his hand to stroke his hair, and said in a clear voice: "Mr. Merlin is a rare genius wizard, possesses the wood element, and is an eighth-level high-level wizard. , has a deep research on healing magic, is a well-known witch doctor in Heilanghai, and is known as the 'Druid of the Night'."

"Mr. Merlin can heal almost any injury. His reputation is only in the circle of witch doctors. Outsiders hardly know him."

"He not only studies healing magic, but also life, the life of various creatures. Alf was created by Mr. Merlin, so he is classified as a black wizard."

"He can heal and study undead. Mr. Merlin is very strong!" Luo Zhi admired him, his blue eyes turned, and he frowned, "Why doesn't Mr. Merlin go grab Pandora's Stone by himself? He invites you to go, he Do you think you can deal with an eighth-level earth elementalist?"

Mr. Merlin didn't know yet that the captain was... weak.

Seeger also thought about this question, "Mr. Merlin may have been there and failed."

Luo Zhi thinks about it, this is the only possibility, it can't be because of laziness.

Luo Zhijing looked at the captain and asked, "Knight, what is the level of strength of the Ginza Knight, the Glory Knight?"

Seeger generously told Luo Zhike, "Knights have their own class names, there are nine ranks, starting from the first rank, knights, great knights, black knights, silver knights, golden knights, glory knights, sky knights, and then go up, I don't know."

Luo Zhi blinked, "The Ginza Knight is a fourth-level wizard, and the Glory Knight is a sixth-level wizard. It's amazing, this knights of Lord Nome."

I don't know how many people they have, a group, let alone a hundred people, how to deal with this?

Luo Zhi was worried, he looked at Sig Capet, he had no idea at all, he could only be commanded by the captain, he listened to the captain.

Faced with the dependent eyes of the crew, Sig must not disappoint his subordinates who just misunderstood him just now, "The regulations of the contract rules must be informed to those who enter the rule circle, and accordingly, the restrictions imposed by the rule makers must also be presented. come out, but the form presented is a kind of unity, and the specific restrictions have not been introduced.”

"The contract rules of Nome City may have different restrictions on different wizards, and the rule makers may have other restrictions besides not being able to kill wizards within the rules."

"Once the time limit is over, the wizard will regain his freedom. The same is true for the rule makers, and the same is true for the subordinates of the city lord. Then, this restriction seems meaningless."

"Well, that's strange," the captain's analysis made sense, and Luo Zhi nodded in agreement, "Then, is this rule due to local customs, or is it because of the gods believed in Nome City, or is it the ruler's own preference?"

"This, we won't know until we go." Seeger is also puzzled, and the information he has now is too little, and it takes time to investigate.

"Luo Zhi..." After a while, Sig called Luo Zhi's name.

"Captain?" Luo Zhi immediately straightened his back seriously, he rarely heard Sig calling his name.

Seeger's voice was full of encouragement, "Inject spiritual power into the flying carpet and drive the flying carpet to speed up."

"En!" Luo Zhi felt the captain's hopeful and confident mood, and he was also full of confidence.

Luo Zhi stroked the flying carpet with his hands, injected spiritual power, and controlled the movement of the flying carpet. Now he can use his spiritual power freely.

An hour later, a wheat field and the outline of a city appeared in Luo Zhi's field of vision. The city wall was made of white stones, and the area was so wide that it seemed impossible to see the end when looking down from the sky.Luo Zhi asked the captain: "Can the strength of the lord indicate the size of the territory?"

Seeger looked at the scenery below, nodded and said: "Yes, the strong lord will find the weak to provoke the war, and if he wins, he will expand the territory."

"Eighth-level wizards are rare, right?" Luo Zhi knew that there were ninth-level wizards, and when he went up, he heard from Rem that they were in the realm of demigods.

That demigod, ninety-nine out of ten wizards, will never be able to set foot in it for a lifetime.

Sig withdrew his gaze and said, "That's right, lords of the eighth rank are also rare, usually the seventh rank, and the other party is an earth element, and there are contract rules. It is indeed rare and tricky. We try not to confront them head-on."

Luo Zhi looked back at the captain with a solemn expression, "Does the captain not know anything about the earth element?"

Luo Zhi attaches great importance to the power of rare elements, his ice element is very strong, and the power of other rare elements must also be strong.

Sige's green pupils moved slightly, as if recalling something, "I only know that the earth elements are familiar with the earth veins, and it is easy to find metal minerals..."

"Metal?" Luo Zhixi exclaimed, "Wow! Must be very rich, this lord!"

Luo Zhi turned his attention to the increasingly clear city-state again.

Sig continued: "Yes, this is also one of the characteristics of the earth element. I have never seen its magical form, but it is conceivable that it uses the earth and the things in the earth to make magic. I think, this time we have This is a chance to appreciate the beauty of earth elemental magic."

Luo Zhi smiled, if possible, he would not appreciate it.

The flying carpet landed, and Luo Zhi and Sig Capet landed not far outside the city. The two tidied up their clothes and walked towards Nome City.

Like Flora City, there is a fee for entering the city gate, but the fee for Nome City is not that expensive, just one silver coin per person.

Nome City is indeed rich, and does not rely on road money to get rich.

The two of Luo Zhi were instructed by the guards to check the rules of the city immediately after entering the city. As told by the necromancer, the use of magic is prohibited from 6:6 am to [-]:[-] pm. Those who violate it will be sealed and imprisoned in a black prison among.

In other words, during the time when magic is prohibited, the wizard's power still exists and has not been deprived. Whether to use it is actually the wizard's freedom, but if you use it, you have to bear the consequences.

It all depends on self-control. Impulsive people find it difficult to control themselves. It will be a tragedy if their heads get hot and they forget for a while.

Correspondingly, the rule maker's restriction is that during the period of magic prohibition, no killing or restriction of wizard freedom is allowed.

This is very reasonable. If there is no such thing as "do not restrict the freedom of wizards", then the lord can arrest the wizards, and then do it after the prohibition time is over. This is a loophole, the rules are fair, try to avoid loopholes in the rules.

Luo Zhi looked at the captain and thought of a question: "Ship...Mr. Capet, is this magic forbidden, including magic items?"

"Of course, otherwise wouldn't it be meaningless?" Seeger turned his green pupils, looked at the people around him, and told Luo, "Let's go into the city."

"Wait!" Luo Zhi hurriedly took out his pocket watch, "It's afternoon, 24:[-]."

"Captain, you can't use magic items, and the general knowledge spell won't work either. I go outside the city to activate the general knowledge spell, and then come in, is that okay?" Luo Zhi looked at the captain in confusion.

Sig looked at the guard at the door: "Ask the guard."

Sig took Luo Zhi to talk to the guards, and sure enough, spells cannot be used in the city, and the same is true for common sense spells.However, the general knowledge spell can be activated outside the city, as long as it is not activated within the city.

Luo Zhi activated a general knowledge spell outside the city, and while the effect was still there, they walked quickly through the city.

At dusk, the earth was covered with gold. Luo Zhi and his wife walked all the way and saw many poor people. They were in a hurry, their clothes were worn out, their faces were sallow, and they lacked nutrition. apathy.

Luo Zhi couldn't help frowning, the owner of this city is obviously so rich, why are the people still so poor and can't even eat enough?

Luo Zhi remembered that Heilanghai still retains slavery, and how kind the lords are to the people, they usually don't care about their life or death.

Luo Zhi followed his captain, turned a few streets, and walked in poor areas. Finally, under the captain's questioning all the way, the two of them pushed open the half-closed tavern door at dusk.

The tavern in the afternoon has already opened. At this moment when the sun is about to set, the room is dark and full of bad-quality alcohol. There are also old wooden floors, crowded and messy chairs, and the noise lingering in the ears, making the space of the tavern seem cramped.

Several people were bragging with wine glasses, when they heard the sound of the door being pushed open, taking advantage of the act of drinking, they turned their eyes slightly and looked over lazily at the guests who had just entered the door.

Seeger walked directly to the bar, and Luo Zhi followed.

Luo Zhi was quite surprised, the people at the bar sat lazily inside, drinking with a glass in one hand, not paying attention to the guests.

"This must be the boss." Luo Zhi thought to himself, only the boss dared to be so loose.

"What kind of food is there here?" Sig Capel asked in Gulai, and tapped the table with his fingers.

It's been a day, and he's hungry. There's still half an hour before the magic ban is lifted. They have time to relax. Luo Zhi's general education time is still 5 minutes away.

The person at the bar raised his head and glanced sideways at the customer. He took another sip of the wine in his hand, and then lazily got up.

He has a big nose, a pair of amber eyes, and green hair. Maybe because of drinking, his big nose is red and his pores are rough, like a strawberry. It looks funny and cute.

Looking at the two guests dressed as wizards, the big-nosed boss looked up and down with amber eyes, and counted lazily: "There is wine, there is food, um, cheap rye beer, a cup of copper coins, and a little wine , two copper coins a cup. The food includes white bread, sandwich bread, stewed lamb with potatoes, stewed lamb with carrots, fried lamb chops, and fish steaks... Well, fish steaks are a little more expensive, four copper coins for a fish steak, other fried Meat and three copper coins can form a set meal, six copper coins, eight copper coins, ten copper coins, maybe you can order individually."

Sig took out a gold coin and put it on the table, "A glass of water, a glass of wine, two sets of ten copper coins."

Sig sat down and glanced at Luo Zhi.

Luo Zhi also sat down.

The big red nose turned Amber's eyes, and his eyes fell on the golden gold coin on the table. It was not a silver coin, but a gold coin. This guest was rich and flamboyant.

"Guests, you have to wait a moment. I'm talking about change, and the food will be here soon." Big Red Nose collected the money, grinned, and went to work.

Luo Zhi listened attentively, and glanced casually across the room, not wasting time on general knowledge, it was some adventurous topics, who entered which mountain range and encountered monsters, who dug what treasures, who died at the hands of so and so.

Sig Capet looked calm, picked up the wine glass that was delivered first, and drank it leisurely, very comfortably.

When the boss brought the food, he gave the money to the guests by the way.

"Who decides the rules in the city?" Sig asked.

"Of course it's the city lord." Big Red Nose smiled, not caring that the guests were eating, and lit a cigarette, "You are all wizards, don't be impatient, don't be impulsive, it's 31:29, there are still [-] minutes to go Free time."

Luo Zhi glanced at the boss, this guy, the guests are eating, there should be a no-smoking rule in this city.

He bowed his head to eat, and the food tasted good.

"What are the customs in Nome City?" Sig couldn't ask directly what the rules were based on, and ordinary people didn't know.

When they entered the city, Sig and Luo Zhi knew that the deity that Nome believed in was the sacred tree. It is said that as long as they make a wish to the sacred tree and give him a satisfactory sacrifice, he will respond.

However, ordinary people, those slaves, seldom give sacrifices that satisfy the sacred tree. Isn't this a selective response?

The red nose took a puff of smoke and grinned, "There are many customs, one of which is very important. Every year in the season with the most rainy weather, we will pray to the tree god for blessing. At that time, even if the sacrifices are not If the Lord is satisfied, He will respond lovingly and heal believers..."

The red nose looked pious, and the cigarette was taken out of his mouth, "On that day, all believers will put down their work and pray to the location of the sacred tree, and all the diseases on their bodies will disappear and be cured. It is too serious. The disease will also reduce suffering, especially for wizards, almost all wizards will receive substantial gifts, so the people of Nome City are eager to become wizards."

Seeger quietly listened to the boss, took a sip of wine and asked, "So, what does this have to do with six o'clock in the morning and six o'clock in the afternoon?"

"This..." Big Red Nose was about to speak, when there was a sudden "bang", half of the door of the tavern was kicked away.

A person fell in and hit the indoor tables and chairs. A guest was implicated and fell down together.
