With a fun-loving attitude, Roman happily found a Fenerport-style restaurant in the Jowood district and tasted different flavors of Fenerport noodles.
After having lunch, Roman teleported to Pulitzer Harbour.
Coming out of the remote alley, Roman walked towards the dock in the distance.
Having received a letter before, his teammate Yin Milli, who is now a "gravedigger", is taking the "Saint Fern" and is expected to arrive in Pulitzer Harbor this evening or early tomorrow morning.
Roman arrived at Hong Kong early to make preparations.
I found a bar in Pulitzer Harbour, and as soon as I walked in, it felt familiar.
Since the "ironclad" has recently performed training missions at the Royal Navy's Oak Island base in Pulitzer Harbor, often leading the fleet or cruising alone in nearby waters, the nearest safe channel has never been safer.
As the largest and busiest port in Loen, Pulitzer Port not only has countless trading companies and countless commodities circulating here, but also countless information is rapidly transmitted here.
Now that the safe waterway is under control, all forces at sea, whether it is pirate kings and pirate generals, or some medium and large pirate groups, have sent informants here to listen for news and obtain intelligence.
Coupled with countless adventurers and bounty hunters, Pulitzer Harbor has become extremely prosperous and lively.
This is especially true as a bar where adventurers gather where news circulates the fastest.
It was just after noon when Roman arrived here, and the bar was almost full of people. He came to the bar, ordered a glass of Southwell beer, and found a seat to sit down. Various news kept reaching him.
in the ears.
Roman, who was dressed in a combat uniform but didn't look out of place here at all, was drinking beer and constantly getting news from the sea from the conversations of people around him.
The deterrent power of the Royal Navy "Plitz" is greater than Roman imagined. Some small and medium-sized pirate groups have begun to plunder in panic. Outside the safe channel, they want to take advantage of the fact that the ironclad ship has not yet truly formed a fleet.
When more ironclads were launched, they went crazy and made a fortune before quitting the business.
Roman had expected this, but he knew that the "prestige" of the armored ship at this time was not enough. When he actually sank or defeated a pirate general or pirate king, it would make those small and medium-sized pirate groups even more powerful.
crazy.
At the pirate conference that just passed, the conflict between "Admiral Blood" and "Lieutenant Admiral Twilight" was made public and spread among the pirates.
To the west of the "Sea of White Whales", there is a legend about the "Triangle of Death" area, because the sea area around a small island called Mahelk is also called the "Maelk Triangle".
Legend has it that the pirate ships that passed by that sea area had no survivors and all disappeared. Some people claimed to have come out alive, but he had gone crazy and claimed to have seen dead people in that sea area.
Some people also say that this was false news deliberately released by "Admiral Blood" and "Vice Admiral Twilight" to cover up their search for treasures in that sea area.
Some people also say that it is a treasure in itself, the legendary "Key of Death", which is related to the treasure left by the God of Death, so it is possible to see people who have passed away there.
In short, despite the danger of rushing out, there are still people who firmly believe that they are the lucky ones and want to go to the sea to find out.
Roman couldn't help but shook his head. Even if there really was a "Key to Death", the treasures left behind by Death should be in the Raging Sea. What's the point of searching for Death's treasures in the Sonia Sea?
Really, treasures are so fascinating that sometimes they can make people lose their ability to think.
And it’s also strange. The Church of Storms has clearly grasped clues to the extremely dangerous “1” level sealed object that is suspected to be a mixture of the high-sequence characteristics of the “Death” pathway and the high-sequence characteristics of the “Bound One” pathway. Why hasn’t it been found yet?
it?
Can't find it or do you have other arrangements?
Roman finished the beer in his glass, walked through the crowd, came to the bar, and drank another glass of wine. There happened to be an empty seat at the bar. Roman sat down and looked at the bartender and the people next to him:
"What are the rumors on the sea recently? Are there any interesting tasks or commissions?"
At this moment, Roman seemed to have returned to the time when he was adventuring on the sea.
The bartender took the coin that Roman popped out, poured a drink skillfully, and said:
"There are many rumors, mainly about pirate generals and pirate kings." The bartender wiped the glass and spoke to Roman without looking up.
"'Vice Admiral Glacier' was said to have conducted an exam some time ago in order to recruit crew members, but the pirates who failed the exam were unwilling to disclose the content of the exam. Only a few pirates leaked some information after being drunk, saying things like 'shit'
Words like 'Grammar and Arithmetic', 'Shit's Blazing Danitz' made everyone burst into laughter."
Well, the last sentence was added by Roman himself, but it means the same thing anyway.
"It is said that the fleet of 'Admiral Hell' had a battle with the fleet of the Church of the Night Goddess in the southern waters of the Rhoside Islands, on the edge of the Raging Sea. In the end, the 'Admiral Hell' left successfully, and the Church of the Night Goddess gained nothing."
Hey, how come you don’t know about this? Well, the church does not have the obligation to inform you about these things.
Roman was thinking while listening, and then he heard a piece of news that interested him very much:
"You talked about interesting commissions, and here is one."
The bartender said, took out a photo from under the table, showed it to Roman, and said:
"This is a missing person commission. This lady may be a noble, or the daughter of a wealthy businessman. In short, she ran away from home. As long as she can be brought back to Backlund safely, she will receive 2,000 Lu.
As long as you can provide the final confirmed clue, depending on the level of the clue, you can get at least 10 pounds."
The bartender said with some envy in his tone:
"If any lucky adventurer can complete this commission, he can retire directly, return to the countryside of Loen, buy a large piece of land, and no longer have to risk his life to live on the sea."
Roman was also full of curiosity about the sky-high reward of 2,000 pounds and looked at the photo.
It was a young lady who looked to be in her 20s, with an heroic appearance, short blond hair that looked a bit out of place in Loen, dark blue eyes, and a smile on her lips.
She looks like she would run away from home... Roman couldn't help but think to himself. At the same time, he also remembered the girl's name, Caroline Monlozer.
She sounds particularly like the lady from Intis... Roman drank the last sip of wine in his glass, sat and listened to the news on the sea for a while, and chatted with the "fellow adventurers" around him for a while.
Afterwards, we left the bar and headed to the dock to wait for news.
According to the port staff, when in Damier Port, the captain of the "Saint Fern" sent a telegram to inform him that everything was normal and that the ship would arrive at Pulitzer Port this evening.
Roman chose to wait at the port, watching the people coming and going on the pier with a different mood.
Just before dusk was approaching, Roman saw the familiar luxury passenger ship "Saint Fern" honking its whistle as it entered the harbor.
Roman saw the passengers walking down the gangway one after another, and also saw the taller Yin Milli with slightly darker skin in the crowd.
Seeing Roman coming to wait for her at the pier, Yin Milli's somewhat deserted face also showed a look of surprise, and she speeded up slightly and walked towards Roman.
Due to his size advantage, Roman is also very conspicuous in the crowd.
Both Roman and Yin MiLi were not very good at expressing their emotions. They didn't exchange too many pleasantries after meeting. It was Roman himself who talked about the future arrangements for Yin MiLi.
Since she was not very good at communicating with people, Roman felt that she would not like getting along with children, so Roman decided to let her settle down in his residence first before making any plans.
At the same time, because she has been guarding the cemetery and playing the role of "gravedigger" for a long time, Yin Mili has a cold temperament in her body, which requires a long-term normal life to gradually disappear.
Since it was already evening when she arrived and it was getting dark, Roman planned to take her on a steam train to let her experience this mode of transportation that was different from ships and to see the scenery along the way, so he did not take her directly to teleport back to Beckland.
Germany.
After getting Yin Milli's consent, Roman took her to the station and prepared to take the last steam train back to Backlund.
There are no passenger steam trains running at night. This chapter has been completed!
