Chapter 142: Once a contract is signed, it must be fulfilled
Chapter 142: Once a contract is signed, it must be fulfilled
A high-tech ship sailed into the port, and a man, a woman and a dog walked off the ship. Behind them, they were holding a bunch of pirates who had just lost their memories.
"Hello, sir. We are the clerks of the Bounty Hunters' Guild stationed in Port Banmaid. May I ask if there is anything I can assist you with?"
Just like the previous Yharnam Island, there is also a Bounty Hunter Association stationed in the port here. When they saw Feng Xue leading a group of pirates off the ship, they immediately came over.
Feng Xue, who was already wearing a black suit, saw these clerks whose skin color was closer to bronze, but he didn't hesitate and immediately pulled the rope connected to a string of pirates:
"It seems they're calling the Razor Pirates. They're also going after the ship behind them. Give us your estimates."
"Okay, we'll go check it out right away. Please wait!"
The bounty hunter quickly pressed the terminal on his arm, and soon a team came over with various equipment for testing.
Although it seems to be fine, there are still a lot of outrageous technologies in this world. It is hard to say if they just randomly captured a group of civilians and gave them plastic surgery to impersonate others.
However, the group of people in Feng Xue's hands all had traces of mythical beasts and prosthetics, and there was nothing wrong with the pirate ship. Except that all the members lost one day's memory, there was nothing to blame.
"Can the Moon Goddess Mau's power over dreams and illusions also erase memories? Theoretically, it seems possible, but this is the first time I've seen it..." The Bounty Hunter Association clerk wondered how much this information was worth, but a businesslike smile was already plastered on his face.
"Hello sir, we've checked. The bounty for all the members of the Razor Pirates is four million. Since you're capturing them all alive, we have to factor in the value of their mythical beasts. If you also want to sell the ship, I can raise it to ten million. Of course, if the ship is auctioned off alone, it might fetch a higher price, but that requires time and the right buyer..."
"No need, just settle it directly." Feng Xue waved his hand, with an expression that said, "I don't have the time for that." The Bounty Hunter Guild opened an office at the dock to make money. He immediately took out the equipment and said,
"Do you have an account at the Goddess of Fortune Bank? If not, it may take us some time to raise the general equivalent."
"Yes." Feng Xue took out the anonymous card. Although he was curious why he didn't just apply for one if he didn't have one, he didn't ask because he thought there might be some hidden secrets in it.
However, Xiao Lingdang, as a caring and considerate little cotton-padded jacket (as she called herself), immediately sorted out the public information through the local network and conveyed it to Feng Xue through the contract connection.
In fact, the reason is simple. Although the Goddess of Wealth is a relatively famous neutral god, she is not without enemies. Not to mention that there is no shortage of overbearing gods on this sea who are hostile to other gods for no apparent reason. Especially in places like the Cradle Islands where religious factions are intricate, many people cannot open a bank account with the Goddess of Wealth due to religious reasons.
Feng Xue and his crew came in a high-tech houseboat, so they were naturally assumed to be sailing veterans. If such a person doesn't have an account, it would be obviously impolite to ask him to open one.
Although this was just a small episode, Feng Xue was able to see the peculiarities of the local environment and immediately said:
"Help me check the code of conduct for Mawu believers. Once you find it, give it to Fina... Never mind, just give it to Sarah. We're pretending to be believers now. If we're exposed, we'll be heretics even more hateful than pagans! Oh, and disguise yourself as an ordinary AI too!"
"Got it! Little Bell Navigation Assistant is at your service!"
The originally lively 3D projection of the little bell immediately became dull, looking like a preset VTB leather case.
Although it looked rigid on the surface, the little bell had all the functions. With the help of the performance of the pre-civilization terminal, she quickly summarized a long list of behavioral norms from the local public network.
Fortunately, although Mau's followers were not few, she was only considered an indigenous deity in the entire Titan Island Chain. Compared to those pantheons that had established dynasties and become national religions, her followers did not abide by many rules. Excluding those used in occasions such as marriages, funerals, and major sacrifices, there were generally only three rules:
1. Do not observe the moon at dawn or dusk. 2. Do not use any healing methods other than herbs and divine grace.
3. You are not allowed to take any life during the day (accidental killing or indirect death from traps does not count).
In addition, this sect does not even have its own exclusive prayer rituals and greeting etiquette among believers, which can be said to be quite primitive.
"It looks like a wild deity that hasn't even built its own system. No wonder it's so afraid of the impact of outsiders!"
Feng Xue muttered to himself, confirming that Sarah had started teaching Fina, then he asked Xiao Lingling to lock the Dayun number and reached out to gently stroke the White Snake ring.
Compared to the previous ring that was in the shape of a small snake coiling around, Liu Yunxi's ring this time is more artistic. On the ring with the snake's body coiled around it, there is also a crescent-shaped jade stone inlaid, emitting bright moonlight.
A wisp of ghost energy was transmitted slightly, and the ghost clapping was immediately activated. With Mo Ming as a mouthpiece, the communication between the two became simpler -
"I can sense an aura similar to that of the Moonstone, and there's a lot more!"
"Don't worry, there should be quite a few believers setting up stalls and doing business here. Let's collect a set of identities first!"
As he spoke, Feng Xue put his arm around Fina's arm and walked out of the port like a nobleman taking his pet shopping. If the two of them were not so dark-skinned, they would probably look even more alike.
But in the Titan Island Chain, black skin is the mainstream local population. Although people of other skin colors can be seen occasionally, they are ultimately a minority.
Under the guidance of Xiao Lingdang, Feng Xue came to the trading street as if he had been there countless times. Before he arrived at his destination, Feng Xue was already speechless by the strange passers-by.
In addition to various believers, there are also some people who follow the path of fantasy beasts. Although most of them have not merged with fantasy beasts, they still have obvious animal characteristics on their bodies, or have feathers and scales, or have tentacles and gills, and even half of their faces have become like animals. But each of them has no aesthetic sense. At first glance, Feng Xue thought he had come to a place to quit Fu Rui's hobby.
"What backward technology! It's worthy of being the most backward region among the Seven Islands." Sarah's voice traveled through the nano-membrane to Feng Xue's ears. Feng Xue simply rolled her eyes and didn't respond. She didn't even go shopping. Instead, she followed the signs to the management office and asked:
"If I set up a stall here and buy some things, how much will it cost?"
When the administrator heard Feng Xue's question, he looked up and down at his clothes and said casually:
"The nearby shops have all been rented out, and the nearest one expires next month. If you're setting up a stall, you'll only have to pay a daily management fee of 300 yuan. But if you cause trouble or get into a fight, you'll have to pay three times the damage in compensation. The price list is over there, just take a look."
Feng Xue had naturally inquired with Xiao Lingdang long ago. He raised his hand to transfer the money into the account, took an unknown animal skin as proof of payment, found an open space on the street, spread out the animal skin, but did not sell anything. Instead, he took out a wooden board and, under the guidance of Xiao Lingdang, wrote the same words crookedly in three languages: Common Language, Cradle Island Group Dialect, and Emerald Island Group Dialect.
"We're buying all kinds of ores at high prices! 10% premium for conventional metal ores, and rare ores will be negotiated!"
