Chapter 237 Merchant Ship

She frowned and asked, "Have I seen you before?"

It is certain that these are not vulgar words to start a conversation. This silver dragon is really thinking about this matter, and Tang Zhao has indeed met the other party, but the gap between him at that time and now is somewhat big.

[I have no impression of seeing you before, maybe it’s just some kind of misunderstanding.]

Tang Zhao was not prepared to reveal his identity at all, because from all aspects, the extent of his changes was too appalling. He had traveled hundreds of years in a few years. He was afraid of being dragged into slices for various experiments, no matter what

Whether the other party notices it, it's better to pretend to be stupid.

Even though she said this, Tina didn't buy it: "Why don't I think it's possible? Every living thing has its own scent. If you have an impression, you must have smelled it. I have an impression of your scent."

[Then maybe we met in Queen Julia’s territory. In addition, I also often interacted with Lufford in the royal capital, so maybe we met indirectly at that time. 】

Tang Zhao lied seriously, and Tina smiled noncommittally and did not go into details: "That's probably it. How much did Julia tell you?"

【Which aspect?】

"You seem to have said a lot about the things she should or shouldn't say, so I'll tell you straight away. During this journey, I may need your help. To be specific, it's about the north of the wasteland.

Those dwarf things”

Maybe it was because she had been in the human world for too long, but Tina acted like a normal noble or businessman who was well-educated and patient, rather than like a giant dragon. She explained in detail. This made Tang Zhao feel relieved, and she seemed to be a more talkative person.

.

What she needs help with, in a nutshell, is that she needs to go deeper into the hinterland and go to the territory of the orcs to find something.

Tang Zhao didn't ask too much about what he was looking for specifically. He knew that asking too many questions would not be good for him.

【I can assist within the limits of my ability.】

"Excuse me, if you can help, I am willing to share part of the harvest with you. Of course, only a part, just a part."

He repeatedly emphasized "part of it", but he was still willing to share it anyway, which aroused Tang Zhao's vigilance - he knew very well that no matter what kind of dragon they were, they were extremely stingy. The only difference was whether they would rob by force and what kind of

The method of taking things by force and taking the initiative to share benefits with others shows that this matter is not something that he can easily solve by himself. In other words, the danger of this matter will be quite great.

Tang Zhao originally wanted to explain to the other party, but the low sound of the horn interrupted his words.

I thought they were sahuagin or similar marine race raiders, but I didn't expect it to be a fleet of ships. The overall look was quite embarrassing, as if they had just experienced a battle, and the ship's masts and sails were mostly damaged.

There were few intact parts of the hull, and there were a lot of dark red blood stains scattered all over the ship.

If he only looked at the ship itself, Tang Zhao would subconsciously think that it was a fleet that had been looted and completely abandoned. However, there was someone on the bow of the ship waving an unknown flag, waving wildly, and using high-intensity lighting magic to the sky, desperately trying to keep it away.

Tang Zhao noticed them.

They must be humans or some kind of creature that is very similar to humans. They don't look like Oran people in their attire. At the same time, most of these people have injuries on their bodies. They have obviously experienced a hard battle.

Tina consciously ended the topic and looked at the ships up and down. At the same time, she placed her slender right hand on the long sword engraved with complex silver-white patterns on her waist, ready to take action at any time.

She was the nominal person in charge, but she didn't seem to be very good at military affairs or commanding. The serious officer was responsible for the specific matters, and Tang Zhao didn't need to say much. He consciously sent people to row boats to contact those people.

[Do you know where those people came from?] Out of curiosity, Tang Zhao still asked.

"Businessmen in a certain municipality in the Western Empire all fly the same eagle flag to the outside world. I rarely go there, so I can't tell them apart, but I'm probably sure that these people are quite brave. This trip is far enough."

[You mean, they circled the entire continent from the north or the south?] Tang Zhao understood the meaning.

"That's right. To be precise, it's the north, because coming from the south will definitely supply supplies in Oran. We can't not know it. It can save some effort. They should have similar charts in their hands, otherwise they won't be able to survive.

Now."

After saying her thoughts, Tina jumped lightly and returned to her flagship with a few taps on the sea. Tang Zhao also had to go over to discuss matters, but he seemed much embarrassed.

Jumping off the guardrail, he quickly grew in size in the air, splashing a large pool of water, and then swung his tail from side to side like a crocodile. He swung his tail three to five times before reaching the side of the flagship, and then awkwardly climbed up.

No one paid much attention to this process, because everyone was listening to the messenger who was brought back by the boat.

The man who was said to be the captain spoke loudly and excitedly: "I am asking you now to rescue other besieged ships. We are only a small part of the lucky ones who escaped, and the rest are still surrounded by those mermaids on an island not far away.

Come on! Help us, save my brothers, I am willing to give you anything you need!"

He was sincere and looked really anxious, but Tang Zhao knew that there was probably something wrong inside. Mermaids were a very law-abiding race and would hardly rob a passing merchant ship unless the other party had done something else in advance.

Controlling his body size to a suitable range where he could overlook the opponent, Tang Zhao gently patted the deck with his tail, signaling to the people around him not to interfere and to negotiate with him.

"I need the chart of your voyage here. In exchange, I will help you fish out the people. Is the deal established?"

The captain was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that Tang Zhao, the oversized lizard, would be the talker, but he still nodded and agreed quickly: "It's easy to talk. I swear to Wilko that this deal can be done."

Sailors who make a living on the sea and watch the sky depending on life and death have been a relatively more pious group since ancient times. Velko is the god of sailors and navigation safety, which is basically equivalent to swearing to Mazu, which is a very convincing oath from a sailor's perspective.

Tang Zhao didn't waste any time and started to communicate and negotiate [Let my ship take him there. The mermaid and I have some dealings in the past. Maybe there is no need to make things too ugly. After all, the sahuagins are the common enemy.]

The officer immediately turned to look at Tina. After Tina nodded in agreement, he also happily agreed.

After taking the ragged captain to his ship, and leaving the rest of the sailors under the care of Tina and others, Tang Zhao immediately ordered the sailors to speed up and sail towards the destination at high speed. It took them three or four hours to reach the island. At the same time, they encountered

Arrived and intercepted the mermaid warrior.
