Black sail

Chapter 36 XXXVI. The Punisher and the Moon Swordsman
The situation has completely deescalated.

When the count and his family saw that the matter was settled, the gloom on their faces disappeared, and they moved the tableware with due etiquette.

Morrison ate from start to finish. He didn't stop the fork just now when the sword was on the verge of breaking out. Although Li Si Te was nervous, he was a reliable person. He never lost the chain at critical moments and knew that nothing would happen.

Siwan also sat down. Among other things, the Thieves Guild has enough money for full members, and they have eaten and seen it before, so they have limited interest in a table of big dishes.

The atmosphere became relaxed, and the earl also arranged for a musician to play the piano next to him. The decibel was suitable as background sound to soothe the mood and would not affect normal conversations.

"One of them is a high-ranking figure in the Holy Spirit Church's Judgment Office..."

The count hadn't finished speaking.

"Wait... is it from the Kingdom of Zeon?"

Li Si Te couldn't help asking.

The Church of the Holy Spirit is a widely distributed religion in the Western Continent. It believes in the thirteen Holy Spirits. Among the thirteen Holy Spirits, the Holy Spirit of Waves and Storms is generally believed in on the east coast. It is also the main deity in the coastal area.

Relatively speaking, the Church of the Holy Spirit is a very mild sect with relatively few demonic people. How is it compared to other religions in the Western Continent that turn people into darkness, such as the "Miracle of Pain", "Holy Allah", and "Silence of Silence" "Li Site was a little afraid of those people. It was either a question of whether they would die or not, or they were evil and scary.

Depending on the region, the teachings of large sects such as the Holy Spirit Church are also very different. Religions often have a strong social service nature. Even if they are the same religion, the teachings will change with the local political ecology, just like on earth. A sect in China is divided into Catholicism, Puritanism, Protestantism, etc. It is the same principle.

The fundamental church of the Holy Spirit has extremely strong universal values, and the customs and behaviors and internal logic it advocates are very clever, which can allow a virtuous circle of civilization to develop.

But it is different in the Kingdom of Zeon. It has become a political tool of King Zeon. Over there, the demon hunters of the Church of the Holy Spirit cannot communicate.

The classic story gives you [-] million and is chased by a snail, but you have no money, and it is not a snail. The one who comes to kill you is the ultimate devil, and it may not necessarily kill you, but it requires some fancy rituals.

So Archer, who had formed a relationship with Zeon's court, was frightened when he heard that the witcher was coming.

"It's not from the Kingdom of Zeon, it's... from the territory of Alan, Caluso the Punisher."

The count called his servants, and he also lit a high-end cigarette and smoked it.

The state religion of Aram is very powerful. It allows citizens to have freedom of belief, and also allows other religious forces to open churches to preach. As long as you give the money for renting land, it is easy to say. The emperor is a very powerful figure. He once threatened that eternity and The Dragon of Time is generous and tolerant of all gods.

So when someone is an emperor, this courage is truly terrifying. The Eternal Sect has jumped from the second echelon to become the first brother of the religious forces in the Western Continent. Everyone is willing to believe in the strongest.

"Have you ever heard of this man?"

Li Site had never heard of it and asked the other three people.

Fen and the others shook their heads.

"I've never heard of it. It's normal. Those in the Holy See don't like to be in the public eye."

Earl explained.

Li Site glanced at Morrison thoughtfully. The nickname "The Punisher" sounds so outrageous. I don't know if you can stand it.

Morrison feasted like a normal person and didn't care who was the guard.

"The Punisher is a position."

The Earl also spoke quite meaningfully.

As Fen was eating, he thought of some things in Aram. Although he didn't know the name of this person, he also had a little idea of ​​the protagonist of the escort.

"What about the other person?"

Liszt asked.

"This person is famous. He is a heroic adventurer. He didn't join any adventure group. He is a lone wolf. You must have heard of it, Moon Swordsman Goliath."

The Count said calmly.

Li Si Te took a deep breath. A hero-level adventurer is only one step away from a hall-level character. That is a famous character. Wait... Goliath?

Li Si Te hardened his fist.

Although I haven't seen him in person, the adventurer who is too idle to be a pain in the ass is said to be a very predictable character.

"woman?"

Finn said subconsciously.

"Is there anything wrong?"

The Earl asked, the names of the two guards were mentioned, and then it was time to finalize the details.

The good wine from the estate that the count ordered has been opened and poured into the goblet in front of Fern.

"No."

Fen took a sip of his wine. It was taboo on a pirate ship to take a woman out to sea, but it was good to say that this woman had the ability to protect herself. If she didn't have the ability to protect herself, the one or two hundred people on the ship would have eaten a meal of hob meat and it would have been a boring voyage. There will definitely be evil fire in the fire. If it is small, it will cause a commotion. Someone may sneak up on any corner of the ship and hit him hard. If it is large, it will cause a private fight among the crew members, which may result in loss of life.

Since he is a moon-wheel swordsman, there will be no troubles. He has a lust but no guts. Three weeks to Paradise Harbor is not too long. There are also brothels on the way. If you are really nervous, you can go to solve it.

"They're all high-end people."

Li Si Te thought that the Punisher would only be stronger than Goliath, not weaker. After all, adventurers were hired, and the real bodyguards must be more fierce.

"How did you respond? They came directly to Port Secret, or what?"

Fern asked for specifics.

"They will not stay at my manor. The meeting point is Lavender Town, southwest of Linden City. They will come to the lakeside villa five miles east of the town. It is very easy to recognize. It is a place I use for vacation. The real estate can be called luxurious. It is best to go there and wait ten days later. After receiving the secret port, do not hesitate and go directly to the sea to Tianguo Port. As for the docking person at Tianguo Port, they will tell you."

Just to be on the safe side, the count explained to the group of four people again.

Fen memorized all the keywords, Lavender Town, five miles east, lakeside resort house, ten days later.

"Very good." Li Si Te knew that this was a narrow escape, far from being as easy as what the Earl said, "The final payment is a privateer certificate, which is indeed a condition that cannot be refused, but the final payment is a final payment after all, from now on, Our brothers are already going to die at any moment."

The count smiled, and naturally understood what Li Si Te meant.

"You should also pay the deposit in installments. Every day from now on, I will send someone to send a hundred gold dragons to your ship. Until the tenth day, you will send someone to Lavender Town. This is today's share."

The count clapped his hands, and the butler took a small exquisite box from the servant, opened it for Li Site to see, then closed it quietly, and placed it in front of Li Site.

Even Swann, who had dealt with treasures the most, was amazed by the count's handiwork. This was not a copper coin, nor a silver coin, but a gold dragon. A piece of gold dragon could provide a person with food, clothing, housing and transportation for half a year.

Fen was also interested. This was a new record, surpassing the most money Black Sail had ever made, which was more than 900 gold dragons. At that time, a whole boat of people spent more than half a year in paradise harbor and were almost useless.

Morrison is still the breadwinner.

"Earl...it's so refreshing. I'm speechless. It's a deal. I'll do it first as a courtesy."

Li Site picked up the wine glass and drank it in one gulp.

Even the eldest daughter of the earl felt a little heartbroken, because this is really the best wine in the estate, and it can be used as a collection to increase the value of the auction and be auctioned at a high price. It is really a waste of money.
