Chapter 45
Chapter 45 sailor
After watching Bruce leave, Captain Hawk turned his head and said to his boss: “I have recruited sailors. If you are free now, please come with me to take a look. Most of them are barbarians in the north. There is also a lost pirate. Half-orc.” Henry stood up and said, “Then what are we waiting for, let’s set off now.” The old captain smiled at him and said, “Okay, but what about Miss Amy next to you? Do? We are going to Mouse Lane, where there are more people than rats in the sewer. If such a beautiful beauty appears there, it will cause a big riot.” Amy said with a charming smile. “Please don’t worry about Mr. Captain, if anyone dares to come, I will teach him a profound lesson.” After speaking, he used magic tricks to draw a circle of fire in the air. Hawke was a little surprised and said to Henry: “Oh! Boss, you never told me Miss Amy is a mage!” Henry laughed and said, “My captain! She is not a mage, she is a Dragon Vessel Warlock. Okay, don’t worry about this, you just need to know that she has the ability to leave those slaughtered pieces of armor.”
The old captain took out his pipe and added some shredded tobacco, struck it with flint and then took a deep breath and his face was intoxicated. He hasn’t smoked cigarettes anymore, and these shredded tobacco are **** imported. Each small bag is enough to bankrupt an ordinary family. After getting off the boat, he took the gold coins his boss gave him and bought some for himself. After taking two sips, he said to Henry: “Boss, would you like to take a sip? This is a refreshing thing.” Henry smiled and shook his head in rejection. What he hates most is the smell of tobacco. Hawke held his pipe in his mouth and said, “Then let’s set off now. After seeing it earlier, we can let the sailors get on the ship. Otherwise, we won’t be able to hold so many slaves when we trade twenty sailors tomorrow.” After speaking, he turned and walked forward. lead the way.
In the maze of streets and alleys, they spent a long time looking for “Mouse Lane”. It was on the side of the pier, parallel to the sea, and seemed to be unable to walk through it in the fog. The long and short warehouse is sandwiched on both sides, and various broken boxes and boxes are scattered on the street, making the already narrow passages in many places only for one person to pass through. Suddenly a figure walked out of the alley, the cloak and hood tightly wrapped the whole body. At this moment the captain said, “Hello dear Whisper, I have paid and now I will take my sailor.” Sombra took off his hood, and she was a pretty good-looking woman. She touched the weapon on her waist and said, “Damn Hawk, you should take them away after you just paid! Now you need to pay a hundred gold coins for storage. You know those rude guys messed up my warehouse. It’s a mess.” The captain smiled and said, “Well, if I see them, I will pay. The two behind me are my boss. He wants to see his crew. Now lead the way.”
The woman stared at Henry and Amy for a while. It’s a pity that Amy had worn the hood so tightly that he didn’t see anything, but Henry showed his long silver hair and eyes openly and looked at each other without fear. Whisper’s heartbeat speeded up when she was seen. She turned and said, “Come on and keep up. Be careful not to touch things randomly or I won’t be responsible for any accidents.” A group of people leaped back and forth along the path and finally stopped at a dock warehouse. Down. Whisper walked forward to the crack of the door and said a secret signal. The door opened, and a few men holding crossbows stood in the doorway and began to warn. When I walked in, I found that the entire warehouse was just a cover, and the real warehouse was underground. There were about one hundred and fifty sailors gathered here, as the captain said, half were Northland savages about two meters tall. They have strong and burly figures and strong muscles, but they don’t seem to be in a good position now because everyone doesn’t even have a decent piece of clothing. The other half are pirates with various scars on their faces, and you can see fierceness and cruelty from their faces. A green-skinned orc sat alone in the corner without saying a word.
Whisper turned his head and said to the captain: “Well, you see them all are fine. Take them away within an hour after paying.” Hawke threw a small purse to the woman and stepped forward and shouted: “Quiet! Now you are my crew. Let me introduce to you, Mr. Henry behind him is our boss. He is a wealthy lord and a powerful mage. All you need in the future is to serve him.” Hear The barbarians are obviously confused after the word mage. They live in a veritable magical desert, which leads to both fear and contempt for spells. After a few minutes, a man walked out of the barbarians and he said to Henry with an awkward voice: “As long as you promise not to use those evil spells on us, we agree to serve you.” Henry heard this and laughed at him. Said: “If this is your custom, then I respect your choice.” After hearing his assurance, the tall barbarian led all the barbarians to kneel down and said: “I, Absen, represent the entire Karut tribe. Here I swear to dedicate loyalty to you. As long as you guarantee our status as a warrior and do not insult our honor, we will fight for you to death.” Henry knew that this is a loyalty ceremony unique to the barbarian, small tribes often take refuge in the wild north. Some powerful forces or people. He raised his right hand and put it on Absen’s shoulder and said, “I accept your loyalty and give you the glory of death. Now you are all my warriors, and I will give you weapons after getting on the ship.”
Absen took his tribe to stand up, smiled and touched his bald head and stood behind Henry. Then Henry said to the pirates: “Don’t you like evil spells?” The pirates opened their mouths and laughed. They said loudly, “Head, of course not! We like magic to hit the enemy’s face fiercely.” , Prefer to be blessed by all kinds of magic.” Then the pirates also stood up and followed behind. Finally Henry turned his head to the Orc sitting in the corner and said, “Mr. Green, do you have any special requirements?” The Orc looked a little surprised at his kind attitude. He touched his stomach and said, “You are The first human who didn’t insult me. I didn’t have any requirements as long as I could fill my stomach.” After seeing that everything was done, Henry said to Captain Hawke: “Okay, Captain, now we can take them to We are on the ship. With the allegiance of these barbarians, as long as they are equipped with weapons, almost no one can incite a rebellion in the hands of the sailor.” The captain nodded slightly and agreed and said loudly, “Okay, now everyone will go with me, let us take us. Go on the boat to have a big meal and then have a drink. Take a good rest for the night and have things to do tomorrow.”
Henry walked out of Mouse Lane with a large number of people. The thieves and tramps around saw so many people that they all hid in fright. Soon after, he came to the berth of the Sword of the Wharf, returned to the ship, and simply assigned the personnel. In order to avoid unnecessary friction, he selected four outstanding guys from the original crew as the captain, leaving fifteen barbarians and pirates on the Sword. The other barbarians and pirates were divided into two teams to take over the other four ships. Then Henry ordered the kitchen to make a lot of hearty food and gave each a large glass of ale. The sailors who were strangers quickly became acquainted with each other. After eating, Henry took everyone to the cargo hold. He opened the gleaming weapons and armor inside the canvas and exposed. The barbarian immediately rushed up and greedily stroked a stainless steel weapon and then shed tears. Then he explained to Henry: “When we were attacked by the Winter Wolves, if we had such a good weapon, we would not be dissipated. The entire tribe was killed and only a few people escaped.”
Henry patted him comfortably on the shoulder and said, “Don’t worry, I have a large territory. Your tribe will repopulate there. Now let us distribute the weapons. As for the armor, I don’t think these are ordinary humans. Custom-made things can be worn on you tall barbarians.” Assenbu wiped away his tears and greeted the people behind to come and choose weapons. Barbarians like heavier guys such as warhammers, axes, meteor hammers, and two-handed great swords. Swords, daggers, and spears were dismissive. The pirates behind them, on the contrary, chose weapons that were light and fast. After the crew were armed, they returned to their own boats and began to rest. Henry also returned to the deck. He felt that the environment on the ship was better than the smoky curved dagger Facing the moonlight, he saw the half-orc sitting on the bow of the ship. This green-skinned guy was holding it. Drinking ale in the glass one bite at a time.
Henry was a little curious, and instinctively told him that this half-orc must have his own story. Walked to the bow and sat side by side with the orcs, and then he said, “Don’t mind if I ask your story.” The orcs cracked open his mouth and smiled, “Of course not, I can tell you if you like it. Listen. My name is Vaughan, who was born in the Northland. My father was a barbarian leader. He killed an orc tribe to show his bravery, raped my mother and raised her as a slave in the tribe. In. Later I was born, and my childhood was not good. My father hated me and felt that I had tainted his blood. Other people in the tribe rejected me and felt that I was not one of them. I hunted and fought hard, hoping to gain It’s no use agreeing. So after my mother’s death, I left the tribe and wandered around. With hunger, most of the human towns repelled me and they even didn’t allow me to enter. Later I heard that Luskan was treated here. The half-orcs are not bad, especially as the sailors on the ship can get approval if they work hard enough. But when you came here, I found it was not as good as I thought, but you seem to be a good boss.”
“Don’t worry, what you are looking for will be here, I promise.” Henry patted his shoulder and took it up. This is a guy who is troubled by his own blood, and this happens to most mixed humans. As long as there is a place to give them some sense of belonging, these semi-humans will fight for their lives.
