Chapter 677 (1/1)
Show loyalty? The sailors looked at each other, and they soon understood the meaning of the four words. The witch wanted them to kill their captain to save their lives. If this is a pirate ship, then the crew members may be eager to act. For pirates, the position of captain has always been a capable one. Although the relationship between the crew and the captain is close, it is by no means unbreakable. If this is a merchant ship, I'm afraid the result will not be too bad. For the sailors on the merchant ship, no cargo is more precious than their own lives. If you kill the captain, you can protect your own cargo, which is the same as throwing the heavy barrel in the cargo hold into the sea before the storm.
But the ship was neither a pirate nor a merchant ship. This sounds a little strange, because ships sailing on the sea will basically fall into these two categories except those belonging to a certain country, and warships, in a sense, are a mixture of these two categories. So what kind of ship is this ship? In fact, it's very simple. They're an adventure ship, and the crew on the ship call themselves adventurers. The term ”adventure ship” sounds naive and naive, but in fact, there are not many of them on the sea.
The so-called exploration ship is not always exploring. After all, it is too easy to swallow a ship leaving the safe channel for the treacherous sea. Therefore, workers will be employed to investigate the condition of certain ships and even to accept the maintenance of certain ships. Usually, the last situation is usually accompanied by fishing tasks. Generally speaking, the exploration ship is more like a mercenary at sea. If the captain and crew don't mind, they can also guest in as pirates at any time, but at least this ship will not. The reason is that their captains don't think plunder is the right way to bring wealth.
So for these explorers, will they turn against their captain under the threat of witches? We should know that compared with pirates and merchant ships, the mobility of the personnel on the exploration ship is much smaller. Many of the crew present are old sailors who have experienced several years of adventure with the captain. In their opinion, their captain is almost like a father and brother. When facing this man who is greedy for money and lust, but is extremely tolerant under his opponent, they Still put your hand on the handle of your weapon.
This is no way. The sea never eulogizes loyalty. If it must be said, the only credo of sailors is to ensure their successful return. The sorceress's sneer was even stronger. She had already seen the painful expression on the captain's face when he was slashed to death by his crew. But at the moment when the first mate was going to actually take the weapon out of the sheath, the experienced captain suddenly took off his robe and revealed the common clothes like other sailors below. He knew his crew so well that he knew how loyal they could be. And if these sailors really pull out their weapons, things will be completely irreversible, because even if they survive, the mustard and estrangement is doomed to them can no longer sail together.
”Dear lady,” the captain bowed humbly, and put his hat on his robe, ”please do not doubt the loyalty of my crew to you, which is too sad for these young men. I'm willing to take all the blame for this, but I beg you to fulfill my last little request. You know, being killed by one's own crew is too painful for a captain to die. So I ask you, no matter how hard you make me die, please don't let my crew do it. ”
The hand on the handle, let go. The captain's sincere entreaty made the sailors show their unbearable look. The fierce nature that had just kindled in their hearts was extinguished at once, and many even felt ashamed of what they had done. That's what the captain wanted to achieve. He kept his own way. But the witch's face was gloomy, she did not expect that the man would still be able to play such tricks when he died. Irritability ignited a dangerous flame in her blue eyes, and she didn't want to delay any more.
”If you want to die in my hands, I'll do it for you. It's a pleasure, mortal. ” Magic, blowing the broad robe, revealing the witch's clothes under the black robe. The hot weather made her not wear too many clothes except for the sun proof robe, so the exposed skin should have made the man he met hot and unbearable. But even the most daring sailor would be silent at the sight of the light in the witch's eyes and the pale green phosphorescent hand that she held out from her pocket around her waist. At this moment, they realize that witches are not human beings.
Scale powder, with a strange reflection into a whirlwind, does not give the target any reaction time to surround him. The captain knew that it was the powder that turned his watchman into a poor frog. Now, I'm afraid I will follow his example. The burning sensation comes from the skin, as if the acid is eroding his skin, turning his flesh and blood into soft, mud like things, so as to facilitate the shaping later. But at this time, a strong light made everyone close their eyes.
”Boom!” A few seconds slower than the flash of thunder. But it was clear that there was no rain cloud in the sky. ”The captain is on fire!” A sailor wearing a single eye mask quickly opened his other eye in the strong light. With this uninspired eye, he saw the green scale powder wrapped with the captain, which was ignited by the explosion and turned into a green flame! ”My God!” Such exclamations were heard among the crew, who believed that the lightning must have been the witch's call to punish their captain.But the witches knew that was not the case. Their magic does not include the part of lightning, especially this inexplicable lightning also accurately ignited the powder with deformation magic. What's going on? The witch with dark blue eyes slightly raised the height of her broom to ensure that there was enough reaction time if something abnormal happened.
”Crackling!” In the green tongue of fire, the magic dust is completely burned and a series of slight explosions are made. As the explosions quieted down, the green flames spread out slowly, revealing the figure below that should have been split into coke by thunder. The captain, unharmed, had only a hole in his chest made by lightning, and one of the strange blue and white ornaments got rid of the leather rope that connected it to the captain's neck, from time to time a faint electric arc came out.
”Totem.” The witch whispered softly and said the name of the little thing.
