Chapter 142 The Island Gang
Then Mu asked the navigator again: "Can you know the specific power behind each island?"
The navigator smiled wryly this time, "I have nothing to do with this. The ownership of the islands here changes frequently, and it may be reshuffled every few months. If the information is not updated in time, it will soon become invalid."
Mu turned his head and looked at him silently.
Although the navigator failed to answer his question, he still gave a lot of information.
The frequent changes in the ownership of the islands mean that it is not peaceful here, and a long-term stable order has not been formed.
This information is also very critical.
At the same time, there is another reason why he glanced at it: the navigator in his family seems to know a little too much——
He just didn't directly answer that he didn't know, but said that "if the information is not updated in time, it will become invalid."
Doesn't that mean that he once knew the situation here like the back of his hand for a while?
No serious navy would have the chance to gain insight into this chaotic pirate sanctuary.
But in the end, Mu didn't say anything.
Just asked again flatly, "Then which island should we go to next, do you have any suggestions?"
The navigator thought for a while, and then said: "Let's go to Zhulang Island first, it should be the largest island nearby."
"it is good."
Mu decisively adopted the suggestion and immediately handed him over to take the helm.
But after a while, when they gradually approached a coastline, the gun towers in front of them and the large number of elves circling in the sky instantly dissuaded everyone.
The navigator could only smile wryly.
"Unexpectedly, only a few years have passed, and even Zhulang Island has been cleansed."
Such a heavily fortified island does not welcome unidentified ships at first glance, and they are forced to detour.
This detour was forced to go around for a long time, until the next morning, they finally saw a port with no gun towers around it.
This kind of port that welcomes visitors regardless of their status is obviously much more lively than the good ports they passed by before.
The Black Pearl sailed slowly into the port berth.
Then when Mu and the others got off the boat, brokers immediately came up to them on the pier, enthusiastically introduced them to their residences, asked them if they had any stock that needed to be sold, or if they needed other services, and implicitly hinted that there was everything here.
The navigator went up to meet Mu instead, and chatted with the broker very skillfully, speaking all kinds of slang words at his fingertips, and it seemed that he was not proficient at first glance.
In a blink of an eye, the accommodation recommended by the broker changed to three places, and the cost was cut by nearly half from the initial one.
After the initial negotiation, Mu first arranged for the crew to go to the hotel to rest.
After drifting at sea for more than two months, and more than a month in the middle of the rain on the deserted island, everyone was very tired at this time, everyone had a strange smell, and urgently needed to wash and rest.
But before moving in, Mu did not forget to tell the first officer to arrange for a few people to collect information on the island, and by the way, find out where there is a dock where boats can be repaired.
At this time, everyone still didn't know that since they entered the port, several pairs of eyes had been fixed on them on a wall at the back of the harbor in the distance.
A few young men who looked like local gangsters surrounded a boy who was younger than everyone else in the middle, and beside the boy was a dumb hippopotamus.
Silly hippopotamus, whose scientific name is Silly Shell, is a dual-attribute water + super power elf, evolved from Silly Beast. According to legend, their evolution requires the cooperation of a big tongue shell.
To some extent, this is a rare fusion evolution in the elf world.
The boy was fiddling with props similar to astrolabes and dice, looking like a fortune teller.
After fiddling with it for a while, the boy also moved the astrolabe in front of Hippo.
The dumb hippo would look down every now and then, its eyes unfocused, and then let out a sound of "Bo——" without any ups and downs.
The men around gradually became impatient.
"Are you alright? Can divination work out? Ma De, I'll kill you any more!"
The boy trembled in fear, and stammered: "Divination... the divination has come out."
It was still the man who spoke just now, and he continued to say fiercely: "Then what's the result? Is there a reward for the newcomers?"
The young man tremblingly said: "Yes... Yes, they have a reward."
Several men around suddenly became excited.
"How much?" they asked urgently.
"One...two...three...30, their reward is 30 silver dollars!"
The boy hesitated several times and finally agreed on a number.
"what?!"
All the men around were shocked.
"There's so much money?!"
"Fuck! A big fish is coming!"
"Haha! Get rich!"
Only one person was a little more sober. He stared at the young man suspiciously, and asked: "Last time you divination said that the gang of pirates offered a reward of [-] yuan. I remember that the hexagrams on your astrolabe were no different from this time. Are you trying to deceive us?"
The last time the juvenile divination said that there was a pirate with a reward of [-], but after they finally got it, they exchanged it for less than [-] silver dollars, which has shrunk very badly.
At this time, someone finally paid attention.
Someone questioned it, and soon everyone came to their senses, staring at the young man in the circle with fierce eyes.
"How...how could it be? Hehe, how could I lie? Hehe, that was a mistake last time, yes, it was just a mistake...
I use the divination technique inherited from our family, and I also use the super power of elves. You see, my dumb hippo is a genuine super power elf. There must be no fakes, right? "
Everyone looked at the hippopotamus, then at the young man, and in the end they could only temporarily let him go if they were skeptical.
"Boom-"
The dumb hippo made an inexplicable sound, as if he was completely out of it.
It actually doesn't know anything...
At this time, someone worried: "Boss, the pirate offering a reward of 30 must be a particularly scary pirate, right? Can we make it work?"
The man called the boss lost his momentum for a moment.
"What are you afraid of?! Didn't the big pirate captain who offered a reward of [-] last time have his head cut off easily by us in the middle of the night? You are so stupid!!
We are the biggest gangster on the island now, what kind of pirates we can't handle?But they are just some sea chickens and dogs, afraid of a ball! "
A group of younger brothers were so scared by the boss that they didn't dare to speak out. Looking back on the experience last time, they immediately felt that it made sense, and their confidence rose again for a while.
Little did they know that the pirate captain who was mowed by them last time was worth [-] by the teenager, but in fact he was only worth [-].
And this time, although Mu and the others were blown to 30 by the teenagers, in fact——
Their current real reward in the Old Continent is even more than 30!
