On the other hand, snow …
More than ten minutes ago, as soon as he left the open space, he quickly returned along the route he came from. It didn’t take long for him to reach the big pit created by the explosion array.
It was there that he successfully intercepted garlic, who was leading dozens of reinforcements.
According to the plan, Snow’s mission was to trick this group of people back to the ship and tell them that “the captain has ordered that you are no longer needed.”
In order to achieve this goal, or rather … To make this lie sound more realistic, snow had already thought of an excuse.!!
However, brother garlic was no fool. He was known for his cautious and alert style. Facing the one-sided words of an “outsider” like snow, garlic would not easily believe it. Therefore, he asked snow to lead the way and bring them to verify that “the captain has already taken care of the enemy’s main force and ordered them to retreat” before making a decision.
Hence, with a slightly nervous mood, snow brought the garlic trio and the dozens of reinforcements they had brought over to the open space …
…………
After about ten minutes …
“Look, I didn’t lie to you, did I?” When snow said this, he put on a helpless expression.
In fact, when he saw that there was no one in front of him, he heaved a sigh of relief. However, his acting skills were quite reliable, and he wouldn’t let the other party see the changes in his heart.
“Hmm …” The garlic looked at the Dragon corpses, dragon bones, and the traces left behind by the battle. It pondered for a moment and replied,”alright … It seems like you’re telling the truth.”
Even garlic had been fooled, so his two loyal partners, Godfrey and Madi … Naturally, they could not see any flaws in the whole matter. As for the other sailors, they were basically all combatants. Their main focus was to fight, and they rarely thought about problems. They wouldn’t ask what the captain and officers were doing.
“Then …” After thinking for a few seconds, garlic looked at snow and asked,”what about you?” Are you coming back to the ship with us?”
“No, I’m just here to pass on a message. I still have to follow them.” Snow replied.
“Oh?” After all, garlic was a suspicious person.”The captain doesn’t want us to go, but he’s allowed you guys to … Hmm … Ally …” He did not know that Blackbeard had already fallen out with brother Jue and the rest, so he did not dare to be too rash.”…Do you want to go with us?”
“Is there something wrong?” Snow continued,”since you’re so worried, why don’t you follow me … And ask your Captain personally?”
Although he was lying, his attitude made it sound like he was fearless and even more real than the truth.
As expected, when garlic heard this, it was terrified.””Uh … No, no, that’s fine.”
Even the officers on the ship didn’t dare to question the captain’s orders, let alone someone like garlic. Disobeying orders was a forbidden zone.
At this point, garlic had basically believed that the captain’s order was true. If Blackbeard insisted on following them, then … With Blackbeard’s fickleness and ruthlessness, he might just kill garlic in a moment of displeasure.
“Is that so …” Snow continued to maintain his calm look and shrugged.”Then … Let’s say goodbye here.”
What he meant was Yingluo, you can take those people back.
“Hmm …” At this moment, garlic was indeed preparing to leave, but he seemed to have vaguely sensed something strange. Thus, he still dawdled on the spot and asked tentatively,”Mr. Snow … I wonder … How are you going to keep up with Captain and the others?” As he spoke, he turned his head and glanced at one side of the open space.”Do we still follow that group of ‘marks’?”
This sentence, this look … It was a trap.
It was an extremely dangerous trap that could expose Snow’s lies in an instant.
After all, garlic was an old fox and was very cunning. In fact, there was no sign in the direction that he had indicated with his eyes. The real mark … Garlic had already seen it, but it was not in that direction.
These marks were only recognizable by the Blackbeard Pirates “sub-chief and above. Because Blackbeard had said that he would leave marks to guide the reinforcements, Mr. VOG had been drawing along the way. Even when he was separated from the players, he did not stop … Anyway, the players could not recognize the marks and could not tell where they were pointing.
At that moment, the garlic’s question was a test …
If snow looked at the direction without a mark and replied,””That’s right, I’m going to follow that mark. ” That meant … No one had taught him how to identify the mark, and everything he had said before was a lie. He just wanted to trick garlic into bringing reinforcements back to the ship.
If snow did not fall for it, he would have to explain how he had followed Blackbeard and his men. If he could not explain clearly … It would be suspicious.
“Hey! What are you still doing here?”
Just as the question of the trap was about to come out of garlic’s mouth and snow was about to respond, another voice suddenly sounded.
“Do you need that long to pass on a message?” Feng bujue said as he walked out from behind the tree where the real mark was.
“Tsk …” Snow reacted quickly and immediately replied impatiently,”didn’t you see it yourself? They’re worried and think I’m lying, so they came with me to take a look. ”
“What’s this?” Feng bujue was not as gentlemanly as snow. He glared at the garlic and yelled,”stop it!” Who Do You Think You Are? Your Captain is waiting for us to arrive so that he can carry out the next step … Five minutes ago, he was already impatient and asked me to come back as fast as possible to see what was going on … In the end, it’s you who’s procrastinating. Do you want to die?” When he said this, he really pulled out his knife.”Why don’t I just cut off your head and explain to your Captain?”
When garlic heard these lines and looked at the formation, he broke out in a cold sweat.
“Damn it … What am I thinking … The other party is that Feng bujue, the man who destroyed the Mad Eye Pirates with one slash … The captain has already confirmed that they are allies, so why would I suspect his companions?”
After scolding himself in his heart, the garlic’s expression quickly changed, and he said,””I’m … Sorry! We’ll withdraw now! I won’t disturb you guys anymore!”
After saying that, he turned around and left as if he was running for his life. As he jogged, he gestured to the sailors, telling them to stop talking and quickly retreat.
Just like that, the dozens of people rushed back into the forest and went back the way they came.
“That was close …” After the group of people had left, Feng bujue turned to snow and said with a smile,”ha … If I didn’t keep my guard up and wait for you here, you would have died.”
“Hmph …” Snow also laughed.”I’m not as naive as you think. When garlic said ‘marks’, I already knew what he was going to do … I won’t fall into that kind of trap. If you don’t show up, I’ll just say that I don’t recognize the mark, but I’ll catch up with you through some ‘communication method between travelers from another world’. As for the specific method … I can’t tell you. In that case, he won’t be able to say anything. ”
“Okay, okay, consider my actions unnecessary.” Feng bujue sheathed the knife and said,”oh, by the way, let me introduce … This is Ken.”
When brother Jue said that, his eyes were actually looking at the person behind snow.
Snow was also stunned. He instinctively replied,””Who is it?” He followed her gaze and turned his head.
In the end, his face had just turned 90 degrees when he was shocked.
“Wow!” Snow really jumped a little and looked at “Ken”.”When did you stand behind me?”
Red iron ignored him. He turned to brother Jue and smiled.”Did this kid find someone to help him level up?”
“Ah, that’s obvious …” Feng bujue replied noncommittally.
“Wait … Level?” Snow looked at the rather cowardly NPC in shock. He thought for a few seconds and said,”you are … An anomaly?”
“I see …” Red iron’s expression changed slightly.”You’re pretty quick-witted.”
“I’ll explain his identity to you on the way. ” Feng bujue then turned to snow.”Now … Since the reinforcements have been lured away by our plan, the next step is to find ambitionist first …”
Wuwuwuwu
At that moment, brother Jue was interrupted by a gust of wind.
Along with the sound, a white shadow darted out from the forest behind him and slowed down in the process of approaching him, until it fell in front of him in a flash.
“Haah … Haah …” Ambitionist lay on the ground and looked at the three people around him. He gasped for breath and stuttered,”haah … I … Haah … My arm … Arm …”
“I saw it~we’re not blind.” Feng bujue dragged out his voice and slowly knelt down beside ambitionist. He quickly took out the forest’s jewel, Xu like the forest, and activated its effect on ambitionist.”But you’re quite capable. I won’t see you for a while, and you’ve blown away both of your forearms.”
The Orb’s special effect was ‘instantly heal the target’s injuries'(Cooldown: 24 hours; Only limited to external wound healing and limb repair; Therefore, ambitionist’s broken hands grew back at an unbelievable speed in an instant.
“I’m not in the mood to joke with you …” Ambitionist did not hold back. With his wound healed and his ability to retrieve items, he immediately took out a Life Points recovery potion from his inventory and gulped it down. After that, he said,”to make Blackbeard ‘fall into his trap’, I have no choice but to use my hands …”
