Chapter 235: "The World" and Rogue Thieves

In the ancient palace towering above the gray mist, the "Hanged Man" Alger was not in a hurry to mention the matter of the "crazy captain" Connors Victor, turned his head sideways, looked at the "sun" next to him, and said:

"Are you still in Afternoon Town?"

Derick nodded honestly and said:

"Yes, it took us a long time to set up camp, and then in small groups, street by street, we cleared the remnants of monsters, looking for all kinds of ancient traces that might exist, and it would be slow, but safe enough. ”

He replied in great detail, and showed that Mr. "The Hanged Man" would have no problem if he wanted to know more.

"Justice" Audrey listened with interest, raised her hand slightly, and said:

"What do you rely on for food in the afternoon town for so long, and is there any black-faced grass nearby?"

She had heard Little "Sun" mention a long time ago that Silver City was continued by relying on the black-faced grass planted in the surrounding area as a staple food.

"We carry some of the powder made from the black flour grass, but the main source of food is the monsters we hunt, and a large part of them can be eaten as long as they have developed extraordinary properties, been stripped of their fur, and burned with fire, but they all have a certain amount of pollution, which can cause mental problems, cannot be ingested consistently, and requires sufficient intervals. "The Sun" Derick answered Miss "Justice" seriously.

"Justice" Audrey recalled several monsters in the dark depths mentioned by the little "sun", thought about the gloomy horror style of the area where Silver City is located, and couldn't help but ask:

"Wouldn't that be disgusting?"

"Magician" Furth, who was listening intently to the conversation of the other members, was inspired by this question, and deliberately did not look at "Moon" Emlyn, and asked "Sun" Derick rather curiously:

"I remember you saying that the monsters of the dark depths contain vampires, they are pus-covered and ugly, so after killing such a vampire, will you eat it?"

After hearing this question, Emlyn completely forgot to correct whether the other party was a blood clan or not a vampire, and his face turned green, and he inexplicably had an indescribable sense of horror.

Derick was silent for two seconds and said:

"Some monsters are really disgusting, very disgusting, like the vampires that Miss 'Magician' mentioned, but we don't have a choice, we eat as long as we can. ”

His voice grew deeper, as if he had once again felt the cursed tragedy that had enveloped the entire Silver City.

There was silence again in the giant's dwelling palace, and even Emlyn the "Moon", who wanted to refute some of the claims of "Sun" Darik, did not speak, but only pursed his lips and shrunk his arms.

After a few seconds, the "world" broke the silence and chuckled:

"Let's go back to sea, there was a recent incident that was worth noting, the 'Mad Captain' Connors Victor's One-Eyed Skull drifted near the docks after a storm, the mast was broken, and there were scorch marks everywhere, and all the crew members, including Connors Victor himself, were dead. ”

"Justice" Audrey and others didn't know who the "crazy captain" was, and they weren't too interested in the news, but they were a little curious about why such a ship-destroying tragedy happened.

Alger, the "Hanged Man", felt very differently from them.

The "world" has actually paid attention to the "crazy captain" incident, and there is a lot of secret hidden behind this! No wonder His Excellency Cottman will solemnly give an order for the "substitute punisher" and the "captain and sailor" to investigate the relevant situation! Alger's eyes moved slightly, and he thought for a moment:

"In Byam, the Storm Church is actively investigating the people and events associated with 'Mad Captain Connors' Victor. ”

Oh, I don't need to entrust it separately...... Klein chuckled secretly, and asked the "world" directly:

"What clues does the Storm Church have?"

"I don't know, I'll try to find out. "The Hanged Man" Alger shook his head calmly.

He believed that the "world" could understand what he was saying, which I really don't know now, but I'll inquire internally.

The curious "Justice" Audrey felt more and more that the matter of the "crazy captain" was not simple, and said tentatively:

"Mr. 'World', isn't this a common pirate infighting?"

Klein was about to casually perfunctory Miss "Justice" without revealing more, when he suddenly considered a problem.

"There may be a faction of the royal family and some military figures behind the Beckland smog incident and the disappearance, and Miss 'Justice' is naturally biased towards the aristocracy and the royal family in terms of emotion and position......

"Therefore, now I have to instill in her the impression that there are many bad people in the royal family and the military, and subtly change her position and emotional bias, so that she can take the risk of exposing some of the information of the 'world'......" Klein thought for a moment, and said in a relaxed and somewhat sarcastic tone of the "world":

"'Mad Captain' is related to the case of missing people in the colony that Mr. 'Hangman' previously investigated.

"The Witch Cult handed over the lured or plundered population to outside forces such as 'Lieutenant General of the Disease' Tracy, who transported them to the east coast of the North Continent to complete the final stretch with the help of 'Mad Captain' Connors Victor, a pirate who had close ties to many human traffickers and slave traders in Rune.

"I told Mr. 'The Hanged Man' in January that Barron had been seen meeting MI9 personnel loyal to the royal family in connection with the disappearance.

"Also, Gapin, Beckland's biggest human trafficker, has a protector of the 'arbiter' pathway by his side.

"With all that going on together, do you still think that the death of the 'Mad Captain' was a simple pirate strife?

"Hehe, I've been thinking, what is the one behind the scenes doing with so many slaves?"

The clear connection between the clues was presented in the hearts of "Justice" Audrey and "The Hanged Man" Alger and others, making them suddenly understand a lot of things.

When Mr. "World" left Beckland and went to sea, he was following clues, and he had been investigating the truth about the Great Smog incident and Prince Edsak's death! According to the information he provided, it can be clearly found that the real murderer has not been punished, and is still hidden inside the royal family, and there are some military personnel working for him, which is really hateful! Such a person should be thrown into hell! Hmm...... how could Mr. "World" know that the protector around Capin is an extraordinary person in the "arbiter" path? They have dealt with it? Audrey's thoughts fluttered, and suddenly she had an association:

Kapin was killed by the thief "Black Emperor", who was clearly aware of which path Capin's protectors belonged to;

The thief "Black Emperor" is a relative of Mr. "Fool";

Mr. "World" seems to have some connection with Mr. "Fool", and he has never collected the diary of Russell the Great;

So, Mr. "World" is the "Black Emperor" of the Grand Thief, the family of Mr. "Fool"?

He didn't submit Russell the Great's diary because he had done it privately? Some of his previous performances were to hide the identity of his dependent? This was a test for Mr. "Fool"? It's really hard to associate Mr. "World" with the grand thief "Black Emperor", who is more like a hero...... Audrey felt that she had found the truth, and began to wonder what kind of person Mr. "World", that is, the "Black Emperor", in reality.

Alger the "Hanged Man" and "Hermit" Gadelia understood why Gelman Sparrow attacked "Lieutenant General Tracy" of the Disease.

This family member is tracking down the truth about the Beckland smog incident!

And what is hidden behind this is of interest to Mr. "Fool"!

The "magician" Firth and the "moon" Emlyn, who live in Beckland, also vaguely noticed something from the "world" mentioning Kapin, after all, the legend of the grand thief "Black Emperor" has been quite popular in the past six months and has become a lot of popular important characters, and even Foirth himself wants to write a love story between a thief and a noble lady with the other party as the protagonist.

They finally understood why the "world" had been able to detect in time that something big was going on in Bakeland, and that a tragedy was likely to occur, because the gentleman had been following the corresponding clues.

In this way, the Beckland affair is far from over, and there may be surprises in the future...... I really wanted to leave immediately, but Hugh definitely didn't want to, and he couldn't explain it to her...... Furth had the idea of escaping from Bakeland in an instant.

"Moon" Emlyn was not too afraid, in his opinion, there was a real disaster, and the blood clan also had big men in Beckland, and they could definitely provide protection.

After two seconds of silence, the "hanged man" Alger said solemnly:

"I'll do my best to look into this. ”

He already had a premonition that there was a rather terrifying storm lurking behind the death of the "mad captain", so he was a little afraid and afraid, but he also did not lack his excitement and trembling in participating in the most important events in the North and South continents.

"Hermit" Gardelia listened quietly, nodded and said:

"I'll also gather the corresponding information.

"If I can provide more clues, maybe I can help. ”

Klein thought for a moment and let the "world" say calmly:

"On the night of the 'Mad Captain' death, there was a high-ranking powerhouse on his ship who was suspected to be the path of the 'Black Emperor', but the demigod managed to escape before Ion Cotman arrived. ”

"Black Emperor" path, demigod ...... Alger and Gadelia chewed on the words at the same time, wondering where to start.

"Justice" Audrey and others were amazed that Tarot would develop from discussing demigods to directly participating in demigod-related events, and it was really getting more and more high-end, as for "Sun" Delik, he didn't understand much throughout the whole process.

The matter of the "crazy captain" came to an end for a while, and the "hermit" Gardelia looked at the "world" and deliberately mentioned:

"One more thing at sea, last week, mad adventurer Gelman Sparrow hunted the second mate of the 'Immortal King', 'Slayer' Gilcias, a Sequence 5 Extraordinary. ”

"That's amazing......" The "magician" who currently only has Sequence 8 admires from the bottom of her heart, and she knows exactly what Sequence 5 represents.

"Well, what a legendary adventurer. "Justice," Audrey said.

"Moon" Emlyn opened his mouth and closed it again, feeling that he was still far from such a level.

"The Hanged Man," said Alger, who was unusual:

Because of this, investigating the origins of Gelman Sparrow has become an important task for major organizations at this time. ”

Do you mean that the Storm Church will also let you investigate me? Klein immediately understood the meaning of Mr. "The Hanging Man", and made the "world" smile in a low voice:

"I don't know where to get this commission? I want to get money with some unimportant information, and I still know a little about Gelman Sparrow. ”

Well, what does Mr. "World" mean that he doesn't mind if I submit some seemingly important but meaningless information about Gelman Sparrow in exchange for a reward and trust?

The free flow continued for a while, and it wasn't until "The Sun" Deric had finished learning the words of the ancient Hermese for the week, that it was all over.

After seeing Miss "Justice" and the others leave, Klein set his sights on "Grossell's Travels" on the table.

PS: I thought about it again last night, and felt that changing the idiom without historical allusions would be a bit contrary to Chinese readers, so I plan to deal with it in another way, without relatively clever expansion or translation of the content, take its meaning and abandon the form, for example, if hungry and thirsty with like a person who has been hungry for a few days sees food instead, this may be better.
