Chapter 467 The Rules of Pirates(2/2)
"It seems that this island should be very safe on weekdays." Karen said.
"Why?" Philomena asked, "I see that many people on the street have grievances, and most of them are pirates."
"It's not like there can't be rules among pirates. For example, the dishes in this restaurant, a restaurant in a turbulent area cannot make exquisite dishes."
"Oh." Philomena nodded.
Pu'er looked at Philomena curiously and asked, "Why do I feel that you are a little different?"
Philomena asked: "Is there any?"
"Yes, there is a feeling of becoming more cheerful."
"I don't think so."
Karen didn't say anything, picked up the spoon, put the food on his plate and started eating.
I still remember that in the final selection, Philomena almost advanced to the finals with the Thorny Team alone. After entering her own team, she showed that she was afraid of being isolated again;
This is a girl with a sensitive heart. Her past was caused by the environment in which she grew up, but sensitive people are prone to change.
Karen remembered that when the woman in red was "taken back" into the bottom of the well, she was obviously much thinner than when she came out, which meant that the woman in red probably left a gift to Philomena;
In addition, he promised to help her deal with her grandmother;
It is normal for a girl who has been lonely and friendless since she was a child to suddenly receive help from two strangers, and her mentality will change.
How old is she?
As said that night, if there hadn't been that terrible curse, she might have been a lively girl from the Fisher family, and her personality might have been as carefree as Ashley's.
Pu'er asked curiously: "You won't fall in love with Karen, right?"
Philomena shook her head and said: "I would rather like Richard."
This is a kind of negation, and it is multiple negation. Richard here is a word with multiple meanings and can refer to "dog shit".
Pu'er was stunned for a moment, silently lowered his head and took a sip of the coffee placed in front of him, and whispered in his heart:
"Is this the fate of men in the Guman family..."
At this time, the old captain and Murray came back, and he reported the situation.
It turns out that the Lomaford Pirate Alliance received a "recruitment" from the Moon God Cult and the Samsara God Cult. It can also be understood that the Cult hopes to recruit mercenaries. After all, the war between the two sides is basically carried out at sea, and temporary shipbuilding is obviously too late. The most important thing is
It is the crew who have no time to train.
In order to continue the war, all available forces nearby will be gathered together. At this time, the small affiliated churches of both sides have also been dispatched to help their respective elder brothers fight the war.
There are differences of opinion in the Lomaford Alliance. The three strongest pirate families are unwilling to take sides at this time. They prefer to maintain their independence and not get involved in this war.
Because unless one party completely destroys the other party, after the war is over, it will be very easy for any orthodox religious cult to control a pirate alliance. This is actually the wisest choice.
But the following four companies each took sides. Two stations reincarnated and the other station was Luna. The fight that broke out earlier was a conflict between the two opposing families.
The communication circle and teleportation circle are also closed starting today. The three companies in the Lomaford Alliance have made a ruling that Fire Island and the nearby pirate fleets must remain silent during this period.
If you want to leave and become a mercenary, you can, no problem, but you will be removed from the alliance from then on.
The old captain finally said with emotion: "I am determined to be a turtle."
Karen asked while sipping the soup: "So, the teleportation array and the communication array will not be used in the near future?"
"Yes." The old captain said helplessly.
"Is there any private one?"
"It may have existed before, but it probably doesn't exist now. Because in order to strengthen the cohesion and integrity of the alliance, last year Fire Island launched a crackdown on privately erected communication and teleportation circles. It was carried out by seven companies together. It was found that
Several smuggling families and pirate forces have engaged in such behavior, and many people have been killed."
Pu'er said helplessly: "That will be difficult. The formal channels are not open now, and the private channels are not available anymore."
Karen nodded and said: "Now we can only try to contact one of these three. If we reveal our identities as followers of the Abyss Cult, we should have a certain chance.
Do you have any channels that I can recommend?”
If you want to find one, you must look for the three strongest ones. The next four have already lined up in advance, which is obviously unreliable. Moreover, the magic circle on the island is definitely controlled by those three families. There is no use looking for other forces.
After all, the current goal of myself and others is to leave the sea as soon as possible and return to "civilization".
"I... I'm sorry, I didn't." The old captain lowered his head in shame.
"Then do you know which religious sects these three families have enmity with?"
"Well, I don't know the specific grudges, and I'm not qualified to know. I only know one thing. More than three months ago, Lomaford organized a large expedition fleet to expand territory in nearby waters.
, but encountered the Dark Moon Island Fleet, which was also an expedition fleet, and an encounter broke out between the two sides at locations far away from their own islands."
"Oh?" Karen didn't know about this. After all, "Order Weekly" would not report such a remote and small incident. "What's the result?"
"The result was a victory for the Lomaford Alliance."
"Victory?"
"Yes, but I don't think it's like a victory, because not many ships came back, and no second expedition fleet was sent later. In addition, many core clan members of the Shangsan Family died in the battle.
I heard a good friend who is a first mate in one of the fleets say it over a wine table. He said that the Darkmoon Island expedition fleet has the support of the Cult of Kosmos, and its artillery fire and defensive formations have been enhanced. We
The expedition fleet of the Lomaford Alliance was no match for them.
Therefore, I think the Lomaford Alliance should have lost miserably in that conflict, and if there is any enmity with any religious cult..."
"Okay, I understand."
The old captain picked up a plate, put some food on a spoon, stood up and said, "I'm going to eat outside. You guys can use it while you're at it."
After the old captain left the private room, Muri sighed: "He has a grudge against our Order God."
Philomena asked: "If we don't pass through this fire island, how long will it take to get to the next place where there is a teleportation circle?"
Pu'er said: "According to the sea beast's sailing speed, it will take about a month."
"So long?"
"Yes, you can definitely find a place nearby where you can have a teleportation array, but there is a high probability that it will be teleported to Fire Island. The arrangement of an ultra-long-distance teleportation array is inherently very costly and difficult."
"What about going to Darkmoon Island?" Philomena asked.
Pu'er shook his head: "Do you think the expedition fleet is heading there? It must be transmitted through the formation ship. If we go directly to Dark Moon Island, the journey will actually be longer."
"Let's go back to the ship first, and then we'll go buy some things first."
"Yes, Captain."
After walking out of the restaurant, the old captain led the way and took everyone to the market.
Maas and Memphis consumed a lot of money along the way and needed to supplement some formation materials.
Muri took the old captain into the store to make purchases, while Karen waited outside with Pu'er and Philomena in her arms.
Pu'er stretched out his paw and poked Philomena.
Philomena looked at Pu'er, who pointed to a dessert shop in the distance: "Buy two portions and let's eat?"
"Shouldn't it be three servings?"
"Karen doesn't eat sweets."
"Okay." Philomena walked to the dessert shop.
"Oh, it seems that our voyage will continue for a while, but I think we can wait here for a while. Maybe the teleportation circle here will be opened again in a few days."
Seeing that Karen didn't respond, Pu'er looked up and saw that Karen was looking at the shop sign in front of him. There was a decorative pattern in the lower right corner of the sign.
"Maybe, we have a solution." Karen said.
Pu'er wondered: "How? Is that pattern the Whip of Order's contact code?"
"I really don't know what the contact code is outside the Whip of Order team."
"Whose code is that?
Wait a minute, don't tell me the answer yet, let me guess first.
Could it be that he is always active on the fringes of the orthodox church?
I keep doing things but never get it done,
Force yourself to live like a cockroach,
Our old friends—the remnants of light?”
"right."
"Damn it, I knew it."
"This is a secret meeting notice, and it was just engraved. It should have been temporarily launched in response to the naval battle conflict outside the dusk."
"So, you plan to use them to find the opportunity to go back?"
Karen shook her head,
