Pirate System
~: Wine without good wine (below)
Georgina frowned, showing her trademark worried expression, nodded and said: "Yes, Commander Cook, Romon is a very important combat force. M He has always been a brave soldier, I really do not Thinking that he would run away." She also used her surname to address the commander Alexandra, although she was born, she seemed solemn.
"This is exactly what the sentence said. You can see people's hearts over time. Only at a critical moment can you see how a person's quality is. Who would have thought that the famous Luo Hua Liu Shui Luo Meng is actually a coward who is greedy for life and fears death. I sincerely hope that, The other two team members in your country can be braver and don't do anything disappointing." Alexandra said and looked at Tangke and Solu, especially at Tangke.
Tangke chuckled lightly, patted the Soul Destroyer knife hanging on his waist, and said lightly: "Commander, there is no need to doubt my courage, my previous record has proved this for me."
Solu also immediately expressed his position, spread his hands and said: "I am doing things with money. If I run away, the promised bounty will be gone, so I will not run away. If I really escaped, it must be because someone gave it to me. I charged a higher price and hired me to run away."
While speaking, Alexandra had already led two of her team members to the side of the Greenland Empire, standing a few meters apart. He nodded and said, "If it's what the two of you said, it would be great. However, even if you have the courage to give up your life, it's still not enough. You must find another person to replace Romon and re-form the five Form a team, so that people can feel at ease.”
Tangke and Suuru were more rude than the other, they didn't get up at all, they still sat in the same place, eating and drinking as they wanted. Greenland Empire here. Only Georgina and her daughter were entertaining Longya and the others. Georgina said, "According to Commander Cook's opinion, who do you think is more suitable to replace Romon?"
"I know fairly well about the powerhouses in your country's navy. According to my estimation, there is only one person who is most suitable. Her strength is comparable to that of Romon. Besides, she has experienced hundreds of battles, and she will definitely be able to provoke a leader and live up to expectations." Alexandra turned her head like a beast and looked at Emily on the opposite side, the meaning is self-evident.
Seeing this, Georgina's face changed drastically. He said categorically: "No! Emily is an indispensable officer in the navy. She will never be allowed to make mistakes. No matter who you choose to enter the fountain of death, she is the only one who can't."
"Don't get too excited. If you don't agree with Colonel Emily's involvement, you can choose other candidates. If the person you choose is more suitable than Colonel Emily, I will agree." Alexandra Shen said.
"The Greenland Empire is neither big nor small. How difficult is it to find a suitable candidate? I can come up with a series of candidates just thinking about it." Georgina gritted her teeth.
At this moment, Emily, the party next to her, stood up and put her hand on her mother's shoulder. He stepped forward and said: "Commander, I feel Commander Cook's words are not unreasonable. Although there are many generals in our army, I am the most suitable candidate. If you choose too weak people to enter the fountain of death, it will not only harm them Losing one's life, and it won't do anything. If you choose someone who is too strong, the empire will not be able to take the corresponding risk. Only my strength is just right, in that case, let me replace the fleeing Romon. "
"I said, no!" Georgina's reaction became more intense. Because the one standing in front of her is not a colonel, but her daughter who she regards as the jewel in her palm, "Anyone can go, but you can't go."
"Commander, I don't want to go either. But for everyone, there is an inescapable responsibility. Now the responsibility is on my head. I have no choice but to face it." Emily stared at her mother's concern His eyes slowed down, and he said word by word, "We are fighting an enemy country, and the outcome of the war will determine the life and death of thousands of people. If this fountain of death falls into the hands of the enemy country, the consequences will be disastrous. . So I can't hold back or I'll blame myself for sleepless nights."
"As the commander, I know the seriousness of the situation better than you, but this responsibility does not have to be shouldered by you, others can also shoulder it, for example..." Georgina continued to mention three candidates, But the more she spoke, the lower her voice became. Ask herself, even she herself understands that these people are indeed not suitable for Emily, and they have more or less shortcomings.
"Okay, Commander, let me go. I'll do better than the three you mentioned, and I promise I'll come back alive." Emily raised her hand and stroked her mother's The pink and tender face did not diminish the face of the year, "I will never let you become a mother without a daughter."
Hearing such a promise, Georgina was a little relieved, but she was still reluctant to let her daughter run away to take risks.
Alexandra added fuel in a timely manner and tried her best to bring this matter together. The two team members he brought also said that they would try their best to protect Emily.
Under the persuasion of everyone, Georgina had no choice but to nod and agree to the matter.
Tangke raised his hand, patted dryly a few times, stood up and raised his glass to the mother and daughter present: "The bravery of the two ladies is no weaker than that of men, which is truly awe-inspiring, let me do this for this bravery. a cup."
"I also think it's time to toast the two of you." Alexandra nodded in kindness and picked up a half-full glass from the table.
Everyone present simply took a glass of wine, even No. 5, who is a robot. Although it has no life, it has a container for storing liquid in its mouth, and it can take two sips of wine to pretend. Everyone clinks glasses and drank them all in honor of Emily's feat.
After drinking, according to their identities, everyone found a seat and sat down, and continued to talk about bravely breaking into the fountain of death.
"According to the relatively reliable records left over from past history, the situation in the Fountain of Death is very different each time, and various dangerous things may appear. There seems to be another space within the Fountain of Death, and this space uses some kind of The mysterious power has stored some dangerous things in it. Whenever the Death Spring appears, this space will randomly combine those dangerous things in it to form a labyrinth. Of course, this is just a conjecture, no People can prove it." Georgina put a thick stack of documents on the table, including a large amount of written documents and several imaginary pictures.
on those imaginary graphs. The images of demons, devils and various dangerous creatures are drawn impressively. Although the paintings are not very realistic, they give people a sense of oppression.
Tangke picked up the drawing paper on which the demon was drawn, and looked into the eyes of the demon in the painting. He had a lot of dealings with this creature from the abyss. It's pretty familiar.
Georgina glanced around and continued: "In the records of the fountain of death, the frequency of dark creatures appears very high, so before entering the fountain of death, you must be fully prepared for this aspect. Cook and I The commander wanted to assign a high-level priest to your team, but the priest's combat ability is too low. If you enter the dragon pool and tiger den of the Death Spring, it is likely to drag you down, so it was canceled later. This plan. In order to make up for this shortcoming, we will provide you with the most effective magic-avoidance stones, crosses and holy water before you set off. With these treasures in your body, even if you don't have a priest by your side, you can easily deal with it. Attack of those dark creatures."
"I have something to ask." Tangke suddenly raised his hand.
"You can ask any questions," Georgina said.
"Does the holy water provided by your country taste strawberry?" Tangke asked an unprecedented question.
Georgina was stunned at first. After understanding it, he said angrily: "I'm sorry, the holy water in the world has the same taste, and it will never be too delicious. If you find it difficult to swallow, you can bring two strawberries with you."
"I'm just asking casually. If you don't have it, forget it. You can go on. I'm all ears." Tangke shrugged.
Georgina glared at Tangke. Following the words just now, continue to explain the battle plan. She talked about some dangers in the history of Death Springs, and told the five team members what to do. If the Fountain of Death this time is the same as the Fountain of Death in the past, with the strength of these five people, there is still a great chance to pass. I'm afraid that this time, the Fountain of Death will play new tricks, create scenes that have never been seen before, and create monsters that have never been seen before. In this case, there will be a lot of variables.
She spoke for nearly an hour before she finished speaking. By this time, the sun had shifted and began to sink westward. The sun has faded a lot, and the sea has lost its brilliance just now.
When everything was said about Death Springs, Georgina took out a new bottle of wine and poured a glass for each of the five, but not Five and Emily.
Fives think with that simple mind. Feeling that it was unfair that I didn't have wine, I interjected: "Beautiful female commander, although I am just a tin man and can't taste the sweetness of fine wine, I still hope that you will treat me equally and give me a glass of wine to drink."
"No. 5, this is really not a good wine, so I didn't give you a drink. If you drink it, what should you do if it makes you rust." Georgina said meaningfully.
"Why isn't this a good wine?"
"Wine mixed with poison is naturally not a good wine." Georgina shook the bottle in her hand, and the wine inside showed a scarlet color, like human blood. The faces of the three people who were assigned to poisoned wine changed more or less when they saw this.
"These people are all five-member team members, why would you drink poisonous wine for them?" No. 5 was even more confused.
"Just because they are members of the five-member team, I have to give them poisoned wine."
"I don't understand." No. 5 shook his head, the sound of metal turning from his neck.
The robot couldn't understand it, but Tangke did. He helped to explain: "It's actually very simple, the great alliance of the two countries is not at ease with the few of us, and is afraid that after we get the fountain of death, we will suddenly change our minds and check the fountain of death. To fill our own pockets, or send it to other forces in exchange for rewards, so each of us was given a glass of poisonous wine and let us drink it. This poisonous wine must be chronic poisonous wine, and there will be a period of time before the outbreak. If you don't want to be poisoned to death, after you get the Fountain of Death, you have to send the Fountain of Death back obediently, and then take the antidote. I don't know if I'm right, Lady Commander?"
"You are so smart, you guessed correctly, only if you drink the deadly poisonous wine, can the alliance of the two countries be completely at ease with you." Georgina admitted frankly.
"It seems that none of the three of us can escape this glass of poisonous wine." Tangke said with a wry smile.
"You can rest assured, as long as you can come back, even if you fail to bring back the fountain of death, I will give you the antidote. This is just a precautionary measure, as long as you don't have any disagreements. Betray the alliance of the two countries, the two countries The Alliance will never harm you. I can swear by my personality about that."
"Your personality is really valuable." Tangke was the first to catch the poisonous wine and put it under his nostrils to smell it. He is not afraid of drinking any poisonous wine, because there are six resurrection springs in his body. It can remove all poisons, even if you drink it, it will be fine, "I can recognize this wine as red wine, but I can't guess what poison is mixed in it." He asked curiously.
"Sorry, this is kept secret for the time being. But I can promise you that I will tell you this secret when you come back with the fountain of death." Georgina said in a betrayal. This is to prevent several people from knowing in advance what kind of poison this is, and then finding a way to detoxify it by themselves.
"It's a secret again, I hate secrets." Tangke chuckled and used an investigative technique on the wine in his hand. Set out the origin of the poison.
Talomati:
Grade: None.
Type: Poison.
Description: A poison named after the sixth great devil. It is a mixture of various poisonous weeds. It has the characteristics of strong toxicity, small taste and slow effect.
Effect: After drinking it for five days, it will slowly take effect. The water in the body of the poisoned person will slowly lose, gradually wither, until death.
How to use: Mix it with liquid or food, or pour it directly into someone else's stomach, of course.
The poison's name is quite nice. However, the effect is very cruel, and it will cause a large living person to slowly wither and die like a plant.
Tangke clicked his tongue, he didn't want to try this kind of taste, but fortunately, this kind of poison could not trouble him. Since the poison has no effect on him, he doesn't have to worry about being controlled by the alliance of the two countries, and can continue to act according to his own plan.
When it's time to make a move, he will do whatever he can to take the fountain of death for himself if he has the chance.
"I hope the poison didn't spoil the taste of this red wine." Tangke raised his glass and drank it calmly without any worries. It seems to be loyal to the Greenland Empire, and the world can learn from it, and it seems that this is not poisonous wine at all, but a glass of ordinary red wine.
Poisonous wine enters the stomach, except for the aroma of wine. It didn't bring more feelings, at most it became a little hotter in the stomach.
"Ding! You drank poisonous wine and entered a poisoned state."
The system prompt sounded in time to give a warning.
Tangke kept calm, immediately activated the six resurrection springs in his abdomen, and used this artifact-level treasure to wash the poison in his body. clean.
"Ding! You relied on the resurrection spring in your body to relieve the poisoning state of your body."
It only took more than a minute before and after, and I didn't know whether to praise the efficacy of the Resurrection Spring or to belittle the poisonous effect of "Talomati".
Even Georgina was surprised that Tang Ke drank the poisoned wine so happily. In the eyes of outsiders, Tangke, a condescending, rambunctious, and full of evil pirate chief, would never give up serving the empire.
"It's pretty sweet." Tangke smacked his lips nonchalantly.
Georgina stared at Tangke for a long time, and then praised after recovering: "Tangke made a good start. If the other two have no objection, please drink the poisonous wine."
Sea Dragon Knight Ada is a member of the navy of the Dragon Tooth Kingdom. Since he has come, of course it is not bad for this glass of poisonous wine. He grabbed a glass of poisonous wine and drank it cleanly.
Solu is a killer who is very resistant to poisoned wine and is the only one who protests. He argued with Georgina for a while, and then the two sides reached a compromise. The Greenland Empire paid him an additional 50,000 gold coins as compensation for drinking the poisoned wine, so he reluctantly drank the poisoned wine.
Except for No. 5, who is immune to poisonous wine, three of the five team members drank poisoned wine, but Emily did not drink poisonous wine. With her special status, it is understandable to get a little preferential treatment, no one said much, not even Alexandra has no objection.
Tangke grabbed the poisoned wine, poured a glass of wine into an empty wine glass, and joked to Emily, "Wonderful woman, wouldn't you have a drink? I think this poisonous wine tastes pretty good."
"I appreciate your kindness~lightnovelpub.net~ but let's forget it. I'm afraid this poisonous wine will hurt my stomach." Emily rolled her eyes at Tangke, not bothering to look at the poisoned wine .
After drinking the poisonous wine, today's small meeting is completely negotiated. Georgina is the host, please have a hearty meal in this living room, and then take the five team members to the unified residence to rest, and have a good talk with them. The five people issued a foot restraint order, prohibiting the five people from walking around before entering the fountain of death.
Winning the Fountain of Death is an extremely urgent matter. The five-member group only rested for one night, and then ventured out the next day.
The alliance of the two countries has prepared a small first-order magic ship for these five people, named "Strong Shield". All the weapons on the ship have been unloaded and replaced with defensive armor and protective arrays. This ship has only one responsibility, that is, to bring the five people to the fountain of death smoothly, and I do not expect this ship to be able to help more. On this ship, there is also a moderate number of crew members. These people are basically sent to die. The alliance of the two countries has given high pensions.
Tang Ke stood on the bow of the boat, with his hands in his trouser pockets, staring at the black vortex that was getting closer, his heartbeat gradually accelerated. (To be continued.
