Chapter 1275: Return of the Pirates (5)
Translator: 549690339
Let’s not talk about the progress of the game that Feng bujue and snow went to as teammates. Let’s take a look at ambitionist’s situation first.
Unlike snow, ambitionist was very familiar with brother Jue. Therefore, when he confirmed that Feng bujue was going to explore the ‘upper deck’, he entered the lower deck without hesitation.
This was a kind of trust, a kind of trust similar to “between opponents.”
Ambitionist believed that Feng bujue would be able to take care of everything on the deck and would not need his help at all. Therefore, he left the area to maximize the efficiency of the team.
“This scenario’s difficulty is indeed quite low …” After wandering around the deck for about ten minutes, ambitionist had some ideas.”Other than the Armory and storerooms that are guarded, the rest of the places are basically accessible. Moreover, this group of Pirates are all dressed in ‘individuality’, and from the appearance … The three of us ‘players’ don’t have anything eye-catching. Under these conditions … There’s a lot of room for us to fish in troubled waters. ”!!
Ambitionist was deep in thought, but he didn’t stop his investigation. The first step of his plan was to first investigate the internal structure of the ship and the basic map so that he could carry out his follow-up actions.
However, when he passed by the corridor outside the side door of the “bar” for the second time, suddenly … A familiar voice sounded in his ears.
“This … Brother glasses …”
It was a man’s voice, and it didn’t sound particularly distinctive, but ambitionist knew that he must have heard this voice before, but he couldn’t remember where.
“You … Are you calling me?” Ambitionist turned around and asked as he sized her up.
At that moment, ambitionist’s figure appeared in ambitionist’s sight.
This person was wearing a striped shirt and a pair of coarse cloth pants that were rolled up to his knees. From his appearance, he looked to be in his thirties … His face was full of acne. Although he was not old, he had a hunched back like an old man and had to rely on a walking stick to support himself when walking.
“Ha … There’s no one else here, right?” The hunchbacked man smiled and replied.
“Then … Is there anything I can help you with?” Ambitionist was very cautious when he responded.
This was because he had already noticed something strange from the somewhat inappropriate way of addressing him as “brother glasses,” and had begun to suspect … That the other party was an NPC that was far stronger than he looked.
“I …” The hunchbacked man replied unhurriedly,”I just came to say hello.” “By the way … Let me remind you …” He paused for half a second before saying,”Blackbeard already knows that ‘the three of you’ sneaked onto the ship.”
Ambitionist’s heart skipped a beat, but he tried his best to maintain a calm expression on the surface. He asked in a calm tone,””What are you saying? I don’t understand what you’re saying. ”
“You don’t have to play dumb with me …” The hunchbacked man continued,”since I can tell you how many people you have and how you managed to sneak onto the ship, it means that I know more than you think. Of course, you can also think that I ‘saw’ or ‘heard’ something and came here to trick you … That’s your freedom. However, I’ll still tell you what I should tell you …”
He fell silent for two seconds and looked around. Then, he lowered his voice and said to ambitionist,””At this stage, as far as I know, the people who know your identities on this ship … Other than me, there should be two other crickets. One is the captain, Blackbeard, and the other is the guard of the third storeroom, Lorant …”
“Hold on.” Ambitionist interrupted him and asked,”the Luo lang you mentioned, is he the fat guy who is sleeping on the hammock outside the storage room?”
His words were clearly a test.
“Hmph …” The hunchbacked man sneered the next second.”Do you really think … He’s sleeping?”
Ambitionist’s expression changed when he heard this.
The hunchbacked man very keenly caught the change in his expression and continued,””If you want to survive here, you and your two companions must understand one thing. There are no’ weak ‘people on Blackbeard’s ship.
Any one of these hundred people, even if they were just a ‘small fry’, must have some kind of extraordinary ability.
Think about it … Would a character like Blackbeard let a fat man who only dozed off guard an important storage room? On the other hand … A person who was ordered by Blackbeard to guard the storeroom, how would he dare to sleep in his post?”
Ambitionist was speechless and felt ashamed of his own carelessness.
“Alright, that’s all I have to say,” The hunchbacked man said,”you can think about what you should do next. I hope … That the three of you can make it to devil mouth Island alive. ”
With that, he picked up his walking stick and was about to turn around and leave.
“Wait …” Ambitionist quickly asked,”Who are you?” Why are you helping us?”
Now that things had come to this, there was no need for him to continue pretending. He directly threw out two very important questions.
“You don’t need to know my identity and purpose for the time being.” The hunchbacked man didn’t stop turning around. He only replied softly in a voice that the other party could barely hear,”as for my name …” He hesitated for a moment before saying,”you can just call me Ken.”
…………
At the same time, above the deck, in the captain’s cabin.
Blackbeard was sitting on a chair … Sleeping.
It was not exactly “sleeping”, because he had never really “slept”.
Strictly speaking, Blackbeard was probably “resting his eyes while dreaming.”
This was a very subtle and abnormal state, and ordinary humans would definitely not be able to experience it.
In this state, Blackbeard was even more clear-headed than when he was “awake.” He could not only listen to’ Luo lang ‘s’ report in the illusory dream, but he could also know the wind and grass around him like the back of his hand.
This … Was Blackbeard’s “sleep.”
Some people thought that this was an excellent “ability,” but in his own opinion, it was one of the many “curses” he had to bear.
“Phew …”
Suddenly, without any warning, Blackbeard heaved a long sigh of relief and … Opened his eyes.
“Not only did he get on my ship without leaving a trace, but he also appeared in an impossible place …” After waking up, he began to talk to himself with his rough voice,”ah … I think I smell a traveler from another world …”
