I Got on a Ghost Ship By Mistake and Was Forced To Be the Captain Chapter 33

Chapter 33 The Ugly Duckling

Jonah's Tavern.

The dirty air made people feel a little dull. Alcohol and tobacco permeated this small space, and the loud voices and vulgar music complemented each other.

The atmosphere on both sides of the bar completely froze after Roman greeted with a smile. The imperceptible smile at the corner of his mouth was uncomfortable, as if he was hunting prey.

"Sir, the milk beer you ordered has arrived."

The dedicated bartender broke the silent atmosphere. After wiping the wine glass in front of the bar, he handed over a glass of milky white beer, and the **** deposited in it was clearly visible.

"grateful."

When the bartender was about to take away the extra coins with a smile, Roman unceremoniously reached out and held down the few pools that Mr. Mason dropped on the bar before leaving.

when!

Then, in front of the bartender, he popped an equivalent coin from between his fingers.

"You're welcome."

The rest was put into his pocket.

The handsome middle-aged knight squeezed a smile on his face.

"Bayer's currency conversion is definitely a big headache. The **** who invented this currency system should be hanged."

Roman Richard taught Tu Fu based on the experience of those who have experienced it, "You see, a guy like Mason who is not good at arithmetic is always at a disadvantage."

If Mason is still here, he will definitely despise Mr. Knight's shameless behavior. As a miser, he has been prostituted for nothing again.

"Here, here it is for you, underage should not drink alcohol, but fortunately milk beer is not included."

As he spoke, Roman unsuspectingly handed over the glass of sweet milk beer.

In fact, after hearing what the other party said just now, Tu Fu's pupils subconsciously tightened, and several thoughts rolled in his mind instantly, and even wanted to use the power of the ghost ship to kill him for a moment.

After being silent for a while, he calmed down again. He could only shrug his shoulders pretending to be calm, "Thank you."

When he took the milk beer, he also spoke naturally, "Although I have no idea what you were talking about just now."

"In fact, we have investigated you since the attack on the church, and found out some of your past whereabouts. At that time, we began to have doubts about you.

But what really caught my attention was that you in the Grand Theater came to the scene again. I never believe in any coincidence. When an accident happens the second time, it is definitely not an accident. "

Roman's tone was sincere, and he took the initiative to open up to him without any grievances, even a little too straightforward, "Anyway, as a defender of order, I am very grateful for your contribution in the Plague Dance incident."

"It's just the duty of an ordinary citizen."

Tu Fu took the milk beer and replied casually. After taking a sip, the sweet and sour taste spread in his mouth. This low-alcohol drink has the same taste as rice wine, and is more suitable for him than strong rum.

"By the way, what happened to that incident?"

"Damn Princess Sequence Transcendent, happened to pick up a forbidden item, which happened to cause panic in Leeds." Roman used two "coincidentally" in a row in a funny manner, but did not point out the source of the forbidden item.

"Did you know? This is a generally recognized cursed sequence, which will always cause headaches and troublesome things. Anyone who has a relationship with them has almost no good end."

He changed the subject and talked about business again: "Actually, you can see that I came to you with no malice, just like I did with Mason who handed you his business card.

That is a not-so-famous leader of an underground organization, and I had a very friendly conversation with him just now. "

Yes,

It's already quite harmonious without fighting.

Roman's face reveals sincerity, and the transcendents of each path will accumulate different auras for themselves.

For example, when a transcendent on the knight path speaks, his gestures are extremely formal, and his noble quality appears in every moment of his behavior.

"But I don't quite understand. What do you say that has anything to do with me." Although Tu Fu still denied it, Hawkeye started to activate unconsciously, and quickly searched around the tavern.

This point has not actually opened for business, and most of the surroundings are bartenders and unemployed dancers.

The guests who just wanted to have a drink were in twos and threes. Other than that, he didn't find any sneaky people. The only one who wanted to come to the black swan was Roman.

Immediately, Tu Fu quickly calculated the escape route, and took a carriage to the port of Leeds or the steam train station, which was enough for him to go to any city.

From the moment Roman revealed his identity, Tu Fu knew that if he was not absolutely sure of killing the opponent, he would have to give up his identity in Leeds.

Ghost ships and past life memories are his secrets that cannot be touched.

"There's no need to be nervous about it. After all, a Sequence 9 Transcendent can't cause any disturbances in Leeds. If the Church of the Seven Gods has enough power to sanction all those who have achieved Transcendence, I don't know what kind of chaos will become in the Northern Continent. "

Uncle Roman told him frankly that this was not a big deal.

Different from the rumors circulating among the people, one does need to sacrifice some freedom if one wants to become a transcendent, but that is the official channel.

Although they have been cracking down on the surface, they really can't control all the wild supernatural beings who have become through private transactions and independent production of potions.

"Although it is difficult to manage, we still need to know the information of the transcendent in the jurisdiction to avoid situations like the plague dance attack."

Roman Richard finally revealed the reason for the meeting.

This is an official warning, I know all your information, so don't rely on your own ability to do things that violate the rules.

The world of extraordinary people is also human, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and church organizations are the people who set the rules of the rivers and lakes.

After Roman sent the peace signal, Tu Fu couldn't help but relax. It's a good thing to be able to keep his current identity.

He also didn't want to live in hiding from XZ after fleeing Leeds.

"No wonder Mr. Mason is safe and sound." Tu Fu finally understood.

"The Brotherhood is well-known in Leeds. It is almost a semi-public underground trading organization. It has branches in most cities. They not only sell supernatural items, but also sell intelligence and some odd businesses. Of course, this is not shady. .

It is not difficult to use church power to suppress such an organization, but no one can guarantee whether the next brotherhood is still in control. "Roman said.

This is a very simple truth, demand determines the market.

The current development of the Brotherhood is at least under control. They never make trouble, and their trading methods are gentle, and they even facilitate the official access to information.

No one can guarantee what will happen to the new trading organization that will be born after the organization is destroyed.

So the forces of the Seven Religions have always turned a blind eye to this.

"Of course, that doesn't stop me from hating that miser."

Roman raised his glass, because the other party was as shameless as him, which is very, very rare.

"Let's get to know each other again, I am Roman Richard, the chief knight of the Black Swan of the Goddess of Wisdom's extraordinary team."

He reached into his pocket and took out a badge with a black swan pattern that Tu Fu had seen. On a lake surrounded by a circle, the black swan flapped its wings.

"What does this mean?"

"The Origin of Church Superorganization."

Roman rubbed his fingers on the badge, and told a story by the way, "Every ordinary person who has just entered the extraordinary is an ugly duckling with shortcomings before he wants to grow into a responsible black swan.

Only by suffering and countless pains can one day finally transform into a black swan after going through the wind and rain.

This is great, right! "

This bedtime reading from the south of Baia seems to have been endowed with a different meaning by the Goddess of Wisdom.

"Good story." Tu Fu applauded appropriately.

“Perhaps you can also join Black Swan and devote yourself to solving mysterious events in the future. This is a great thing.

You can save a lot of cases like church attacks, people who should have lost their lives, a lot of these things happen every year.

It's just because there is a lack of people like you who have a sense of justice and ability. "

Roman Richard's voice was very deep, and he smelled of alcohol and tobacco all over his body.

unexpectedly revealed a lonely and melancholy temperament.

He even sniffed his nose secretly, raised his head, and the eye circles turned red at some point, and a few tears swirled in his eye sockets, as if his emotions would explode at any time.

Even he couldn't help applauding himself in his heart, "Damn it, Roman, when can you act so well."

It's just that when Roman glanced at Tu Fu secretly from the corner of his eye, the other party was unmoved.

"To be honest, Mr. Roman, your performance almost moved me. If I am really a superhuman, I will definitely become a partner of justice without hesitation." Tu Fu added jokingly.

Sophie,

Look, look,

The Golden Mask Award should go to this one.

He learned a lot from this Roman, especially what a precious and noble quality a thick skin is.

If there is a superhuman who is easily moved by those fictional stories, it is hard to say whether he has the opportunity to transform into a swan. It is more likely to be listening to black-hearted capitalists talking about the future in a black coal mine.

Seeing that Tu Fu was indifferent, Roman's eyelids started to twitch, and he gave him a fierce look, and finally he was willing to come up with something real:

"In return, we can provide professional help, and after making meritorious service, we can convert it into merit points, which can be exchanged for follow-up potion information or finished products of the extraordinary path."

"Sorry, Mr. Roman, I have my own plans for the future.

Admitted to a good university, and then with a weekly salary of at least 10 crowns, buy a house of your own with a loan in places like Puton District.

Well, there is also a maid lady in a maid outfit. "

Tu Fu took another sip of milk beer, and briefly rejected his proposal.

"Why don't you listen to the salary, it's very generous." Roman tried again without giving up.

"Need not."

The reason why Tu Fu refused so quickly was because he was afraid that if the offer was too high, he would not be able to help but agree.

He is really not interested in going to the sharp knife to do the job of risking his life, not to mention the conditions given by the other party, as long as he is willing, he can go back to the ghost ship to get it himself, so why sell himself to them.

"That's a shame."

Roman said this, but he showed a very appreciative look.

I thought I would just instigate a few words to protect Liz and become a hero in the dark.

Generally, don't children at this passionate age yearn for such a rich life? What's more, with the attraction of high salaries, it is difficult to have a reason to refuse such an offer.

But the performance of the child in front of him is too calm, this kind of composure that does not meet his age appears in a child.

"Well, it seems that there is no need to talk anymore. I wish you a happy life." Speaking of this, Roman actually has no need to talk anymore.

"Mr. Roman, there may be another explanation for the story you just told."

"What explanation?"

After drinking the last drop of milk beer in the cup, Tu Fu did not forget to joke before leaving: "The reason why the ugly duckling turned into a swan is not because it has gone through countless hardships.

Instead,

Its parents are themselves swans. "
