pirate?
Loren's head was just awakened, and when he heard the word "robbery", he immediately thought of another group of people with blindfolds, wooden fake legs and iron hooks.
Well, there is another person who wears an eyeshadow, carries a compass, and always adds the title "Captain" to his name.
Wait, it ’s wrong ... This is the Gem River, the pirates ... should be at sea.
So they are ... river robbers?
Gee, it's not easy to say.
Severe pain and weakness kept Loren's vision blurred and unable to focus; he could only dimly watch the other party pointing at him with a knife and trembling and trembling.
Several sailors in short clothes and headscarves were the same, standing behind the "Captain Black Sparrow" tremblingly, not even one who dared to approach Loren.
Even this courage can actually come out to rob, how good is the security of the Jewel River?
The dark-haired wizard who just woke up from a coma, of course, could n’t understand how the group of pirates looked at a dead man floating in the sea, and just got salvaged and suddenly "resurrected" how "horrible" ...
For this group of "river thieves", they have seen more dead people, and many live people have seen; dead and suddenly come alive ... This is really beyond their cognition, completely unacceptable.
Before they dare to move forward, the dizzy Loren desperately opened his eyes and looked at the group of people-shorts and shorts, wearing a headscarf, everyone except the "Captain Black Sparrow" was red Feet, a short knife inserted in the sheath hanging from the waist, and several hands with bandages.
Basically ... just a standard jewel river sailor dress.
Loren has heard of these people.
From Sackland to Ebden, the golden waterway that runs through half of the empire shoulders the trade and material circulation of the entire north; the importance of the gem river to the empire is unimaginable.
Such a blessed and good place will naturally be eye-catching-since a long time ago, the free aristocrats of Ebden have almost completely controlled the trade flow of the Gem River; while the merchants of the imperial capital have stationed the chamber of commerce in each port, The imperial capital of Golovin almost depends on the smooth flow of the river.
The most important point ... Although it is a river in the north, for many special reasons, this river is not frozen in winter and summer; the smooth river surface is always so unwavering.
This means that merchant ships can depart at any time and arrive at any place where there is a port to berth trade!
The Jewel River has the same name as its name. What flows is not the clear water, but countless wealth.
In this case, there will always be some people who take risks in order to make a fortune here. For various reasons, the thieves of the Jewel River will never die, and it will be endless wildfires, and the spring wind will blow again.
For the empire to annihilate these people requires mobilizing the legion and killing all they can get, which is not enough to cover the cost of a legion's development; so as long as it does not affect tax revenue, basically one eye is closed.
Therefore, the thieves on the Gem River are also very savvy. They never dared to start against the port or the transport ship with the royal flag, but they were only in the river channel, specializing in robbing those few armed merchant ships.
Especially the Chamber of Commerce in Ebden ... Many thieves on the Gem River have already been bought by some forces, and even they themselves are the thugs and private soldiers of some free nobles. They are important weapons used to fight hostile families, and it is impossible to kill them they.
So, these people ...
In this gap, "Captain Black Sparrow" had stepped forward, holding the rusty short knife in his right hand, staring at Loren: "What's your name ?!"
The thick accent doesn't sound like Eboden's dialect, but is closer to the East Sakran.
The black-haired wizard didn't answer him directly ... he hasn't recovered completely at the moment, and his injuries are very serious; the only weapon "bright silver" was also thrown into the sewer, presumably already taken away by the night watchman.
Tired eyes stare at these sailors who are either vigilant or terrified-their fear now is only because of their own death and resurrection, this fear is only temporary.
These people are thieves, traders who lick the blood at the edge of murder, and are not good citizens who abide by the laws and regulations. Before the body is fully recovered, they need a suitable identity, and at the same time, they will not be able to deal with themselves temporarily.
"Say, what's your name!" The captain Yaoya grinned and put the short knife on Loren's chest: "If you don't say that we are not satisfied, then we will ..."
"Isaac!"
Loren steals him, and a weak voice echoes in the cabin: "My name is Isaac, Isaac Yod."
"I'm Golovin ... a wizard at the Royal Wizard College."
Captain Black Sparrow and his running dogs glanced at each other, their expressions still didn't quite believe it.
"Master Wizard of Golovin?" Captain Black Sparrow stared at him intently. "In the end ... how did it get to this point?"
This question is critical.
Although the wizarding class of the imperial capital has been suppressed by the church all the year round, it still has a lot of power and a master cabinet minister, Albert Tarot, and there are inextricably linked with the Chamber of Commerce.
In the eyes of civilians, although the wizard is not equal to the nobility, it is also a big man who can have a relationship with the noble class; and there is the most important point ... Wizards are generally rich!
"I ... don't you know?" Loren looked at them in surprise, his eyes very sincere and confused.
"What do we know?" The captain and his dog legs collectively said.
"A while ago, the emperor has been making riots ... the untouchables are all reversed! Killing everywhere, hitting, smashing, robbing, it is simply a group of bandits, hooligans, scum! Half of Golovin will soon become a battlefield!"
Just after a few words, the dark-haired wizard suddenly looked at him with a look of fear, "Uh ... that, I'm not talking about you, I mean ..."
"Know, know!" The captain waved his hand and motioned him to continue.
"I ... luck is not good, it should be very bad!" Loren sighed, his expression helpless:
"I ... had to help some friends when I was in the college, and offended some people-they did not dare to do it themselves, and they encouraged a group of thugs to chase me down; so I had to find a way to get out of the city and then go to the relatives who went to the south temporarily Keep away from the wind. "
"It turned out that this morning, when I was about to leave the capital, they were discovered by ... then, then you should be able to guess?"
"Well, understand." The captain nodded tacitly with his doglegs.
If it is an ordinary merchant ship, Loren's words can be over here-the rest is to find a way for them to take themselves to the south, and then transfer from East Sackland to Byrne.
Even if they are worried about the risk, they can let them put down a port, and Loren can also leave ... but unfortunately, this is a group of thieves that are not so easy to kill.
So ... I have to give them a bait and wait for this group of people to bait.
"Wait! You said you ... last name Yode?"
The suspicious and vigilant Captain Black Sparrow suddenly raised his head, staring at the dark-haired wizard with only one eye, as if perceiving something, a flash of greed flashed in his eyes:
"Isn't it the Jode Chamber of Commerce ... Yode family?"
That's right, that's it!
Loren co-operated with an expression of amazement, which made Captain Black Sparrow smile with pride: "So say ... are you rich?"
"No, it's not!" The dark-haired wizard shook his head in horror, and shuddered back, "I'm just a side branch in the family ~ EbookFREE.me ~ I didn't get in touch with business--otherwise Run out to be a wizard! "
The argument was perfect, and the sailors nodded.
But the captain of the black sparrow did not give up, approaching step by step, the desire in his eyes became stronger: "But your family is rich ... If I take you to threaten your family, will they give them a ransom?"
"Should, should I?"
"now it's right!"
Captain Black Sparrow slammed Loren on the shoulder, ecstatic. He directly ignored the dark-haired wizard with a toothache and grin behind him, opened his hands and looked at his dog legs:
"Everyone listens to me! From today on, this Mr. Isaac Yoder is a valuable guest on our ship! No one will be allowed to move one of his cold hairs until he gets a ransom of one million silver coins!"
"Roaring-!!!!!!"
Exciting cheers echoed in the cabin. Mobile phone users, please browse and read for a better reading experience.
