Chapter 288: Age of Discovery!
Upon hearing this, Ye Qiu was not surprised at all, as he had already experienced it before.
This was also the reason he was eager to conquer this city, otherwise the players’ currency would not be accepted.
"Won’t work?"
The landlady glanced at the two, "No, we only accept Sea Monster coins here. Don’t bring the rules from outside here, we have our own rules."
"Since you’re here, you must follow our rules."
Ye Qiu smiled and said, "What if I don’t have any Sea Monster coins?"
The landlady frowned, "I don’t care, figure it out yourself. If not, take off some of the parts on you and sell them!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Qiu turned silently, "Rules… let them know what rules mean."
As he spoke, Jiang Chen suddenly grinned, and countless Ghost Shadow Corps emerged in the darkness, surrounding the tavern instantly.
Jiang Chen raised his Death Wand directly at the landlady, "Do you know what rules mean? The rules of our Human Alliance are the rules of the Green Velon continent."
Upon hearing this, the landlady quickly stepped back, "You… you’re from the Human Alliance?!"
"Yes, I’m sorry… I…"
Jiang Chen’s eyes, blood-red beneath his black cloak, flashed. "It’s okay, be more careful in the next life."
Death curse – death spell!
Puchi! (snicker!)
As a green lightning bolt struck, the landlady’s flesh exploded instantly, turning into a puddle of blood!
Ye Qiu didn’t look at all, instead he turned and sat at a table.
Jiang Chen slowly put away his weapon, and everyone in the tavern held their breath at that moment, no one dared to breathe heavily.
The once noisy tavern suddenly became eerily quiet.
A bearded man swallowed nervously, about to leave, but suddenly blocked by a member of the Ghost Shadow Corps.
Ye Qiu knocked on the table, "We haven’t finished our drinks yet, where are you going?"
The bearded man’s face tightened at the words, "I, I need to go to the bathroom…"
Jiang Chen’s bloodshot eyes instantly stared at the man, a terrifying sense of intimidation hit, scaring the bearded man back into his seat.
The Human Alliance has just taken over this city, or more accurately, the king here has just surrendered.
The people here haven’t realized what’s happening yet.
"Who is Charles?"
Upon hearing Ye Qiu’s words, the crowd fell silent for a moment, then all turned their eyes to a corner.
In the corner of the tavern sat a man smoking a yellowed pipe.
He had only one eye, the other covered by a black eyepatch, with a scar running down.
His black hair was unkempt, and his teeth were yellow. "Oh, looking for me, eh? Well, come have a drink, my treat… Oh, looks like I don’t have to treat you, you’ve already taken care of that darn fat wench."
Ye Qiu stood up, and the NPCs here also stood up to make way.
When Ye Qiu sat in the corner, he waved behind him, and Jiang Chen immediately disbanded the Ghost Shadow Corps.
The people in the tavern poured out instantly, leaving no one behind to watch the show.
Charles watched as Ye Qiu took a silent puff of his cigarette and asked, "Is there something on your mind, my friend?"
Ye Qiu tapped the table incessantly with his fingers, the sound annoying and unsettling those around.
"You’ve been hanging around in the Death Triangle Sea area, haven’t you?"
Charles exhaled a puff of smoke, "That was in my younger days. Judging by your tone, friend, are you planning to venture into the Death Triangle Sea?"
"Oh, that place is full of ruthless outlaws, many never return once they go there."
"If one is unlucky to have their purse cut, that’s manageable, but if one’s throat is slit, there’s no one to seek justice from."
Ye Qiu smiled faintly, then placed two gold coins on the table.
Charles squinted at this and said, "This thing is not common here, Death Triangle Sea, even less common."
"I will make it common," Ye Qiu said with a smile.
Charles stared at Ye Qiu for a moment, then silently accepted the gold coins, "Okay, okay, tell your friend behind you to put away that hungry look in his eyes. I trust your methods, friend."
Ye Qiu said, "This is a deposit, take me to the Death Triangle Sea area, and when we come back, the reward will be ten times this."
Charles bit the gold coin with his shiny teeth, confirming it was real gold.
Gold, when reshaped, could still become Sea Monster coins.
Twenty Golden Sea Monster Coins, that’s not a small number.
If it’s just guiding the way, this is more than enough.
Charles was an old fox, he knew 20 Golden Sea Monster Coins wouldn’t be easy to earn.
"The Death Triangle Sea area is not a good place to be. I can only promise to take you there, but I can’t guarantee you’ll come back alive, my friends."
Ye Qiu laughed, "Once we reach the place, I will naturally pay you."
Upon hearing this, Charles also smiled, "Alright my friends, based on my experience as an old sailor, there are some things I need to tell you first."
"Firstly, have you brought along ‘pocket money’?"
"You must bring along ‘pocket money’. If you disrespect the Sea Mother before setting sail, no matter how capable you are, you might end up feeding the fishes in the sea."
"Also, if the ship hits something while at sea, never jump into the water to check, my friends."
"You never know how many ‘water ghosts’ might be lurking beneath your ship!"
"Yes, lastly, after arriving at the Death Triangle Sea area, try not to keep too much money on you. Spend wisely to avoid attracting the attention of the guards."
"These are all kind reminders from old Charles, make sure you remember them."
"So where is your boat, my friend?"
Ye Qiu turned his gaze towards Jiang Chen, "Go buy it now, sailor you find, I’ll pay for the sailor’s money."
Charles smiled, "You are really generous, my friend, please give me three days."
。。。
Three days later.
By the seaside, Ye Qiu stepped onto the newly bought huge merchant ship, which carried more than eighty sailors and eight boxes of food in total.
The only food that could be collected from this side was dried fish and fruits.
Charles stood on the gangplank with a telescope and looked into the distance, "The wind is right, it’s time to set sail."
"Oh no, no, no, you don’t need to steer, I’ll do it, my friend."
Whoo!
With the huge sail rising, the wooden giant merchant ship started moving forward into the sea.
Waves splashed over the sides of the ship as Ye Qiu set off with two people.
Jiang Chen and Zhou Li.
This time, they didn’t bring any NPCs. The reason was simple – there were many dangers at sea. If they died, they could respawn, but NPCs couldn’t.
Especially NPCs like Sophitiya and guide Lu Qing, who were very important to them, must not have any accidents.
So this time, only Ye Qiu, Jiang Chen, and Zhou Li set sail.
As the ship gradually left the dock, Ye Qiu threw a gold coin into the deep sea.
Zhou Li was puzzled by this. "What are you doing?"
"We have to pay eleven taxes to the Master of the Sea. Whether He accepts it is His choice, but if we don’t pay, we will definitely have trouble."
