Chapter 292: Arriving at the Death Triangle Sea Area!
"Thank goodness, my friends, we have all arrived safely and unharmed."
"Do you see that island ahead? That is Lady Night’s territory, Lost Soul Island. We better stay alert and not be tempted by surface attractions."
"Old Charles reminds you that in the Death Triangle Sea area, no woman’s words can be trusted."
。。。
As Ye Qiu and his friends’ ship docked, a group of unfriendly sailors surrounded their ship.
Jiang Chen was about to take out his staff when Ye Qiu stopped him with a wave of his hand. They then saw old Charles slowly walking down the ship, calmly taking out a Golden Sea Monster Coin from his pocket.
"Oh, look, Prucok, my friend, I’m so happy to see you again!"
Saying that, Charles directly put the Golden Sea Monster Coin into the arms of the pirate leader.
The man was bald, "Heh heh, old Charles, mate, I thought you wouldn’t come back again."
"Back then, boldly displaying the Death Certificate on your chest, only you dared to do that in the entire Death Triangle Sea area."
Old Charles gave a bitter smile, "Don’t mention it, old mate, that’s all in the past now, things are different, and it proves that old Charles has also gotten smarter."
"This time I’ve come to guide a young captain, unfortunately, our food supplies are running low, so we thought to restock at Lady Night’s place."
"You know, I have some personal grudge with Captain Big Beard, I really dislike him."
The bald man hugged Charles with a smile, "Oh, it’s alright buddy, Lost Soul Island always welcomes you. After all, we were once mates on a fishing boat!"
"Would you like to see the changes in the Death Triangle Sea Area over these years? I think you will definitely be surprised, buddy!"
Old Charles chuckled and waved his hand, "Oh no, I am no longer a young sailor. For someone my age, being alive surpasses any physical sensation, my friend."
The bald man shrugged with a hint of regret, "You’re not as fun as you used to be when you were young, Charles. What about your friends behind you, what are their thoughts?"
"Don’t tell me you’re just here for a quick resupply and then leaving so urgently, are you heading to the Eye of the Death God?"
Old Charles laughed, "Pruck, you’re teasing old Charles again, I won’t make the same mistake twice."
"Actually, the reason I’m willing to come back this time is because a friend of mine offered a very high price."
"They are playing some dangerous games on the mainland and want to bring in some goods from our side, you know, they will visit us from time to time to buy things we don’t need."
"Unfortunately, they never understand the fun and charm, and I don’t want to stay in this place for one more second. We will leave in three days, yes, three days."
Ye Qiu watched old Charles chatting and laughing with the bald man in front of him, lost in thought.
Both men were veterans, their simple greetings hiding countless ulterior motives.
The bald man clearly noticed their unfamiliarity with the place, their urgent need for supplies, and their lack of knowledge of the local situation – it was obvious there were more important matters at hand.
So, besides going to the Eye of the Death God, where else could they go?
Initially, Ye Qiu was considering how he would respond if he were in their shoes.
Perhaps no response was needed?
Even if the other party had malicious intentions, worst-case scenario was just a fight at sea.
But if the other party spread this information, countless pirates would surely attack them. While Ye Qiu wasn’t afraid, losing the ship would be troublesome.
Old Charles clearly realized this too, so he used the excuse of picking up supplies to conceal their true motives.
What goods to take?
This is just an excuse, after all, they are newcomers and want to avoid trouble.
Charles chatted with the bald man for a few moments, then let everyone pass.
Ye Qiu brought a total of 20 sailors, the rest of the sailors stayed on the ship to guard it, in case someone tried to do something while they were away.
Of course, all of this was specifically instructed by old Charles.
In his words, this is all the experience of someone who has been through it.
Pirates have no limits; do not overestimate their moral boundaries.
One moment they could be smiling at you, and the next moment they could harm you.
Things like putting gunpowder on the ship, damaging holes, destroying sails, cutting anchor lines, are all too common.
Zhou Li was quite curious when he first arrived, he looked around, but the environment here was really awful.
The smell of various rotten fish and shrimp was overwhelming, making it unbearable for people. Even after passing through the dock area and reaching the residential area, the smell remained unchanged.
Most of the buildings here were made of wood and very damp, with moss almost covering the houses.
Next, Charles directly took them to a tavern.
"You know, friend, if you are a qualified sailor, the first thing you must do when getting off the ship is to gulp down a big drink at the tavern!"
"Instead of doing business, this is the procedure, remember that, my friend."
Jiang Chen stayed silent all along the way, but now he spoke up, "Is it that you want to drink, or do we have to drink?"
Jiang Chen was clearly questioning Charles, whether he was craving for alcohol or if we needed to drink to avoid attracting attention.
Hearing this, Ye Qiu patted Jiang Chen’s shoulder, "When in Rome, do as the Romans do, a little delay won’t hurt, let’s stay a few more days, maybe other players will arrive here."
Other players…
Ye Qiu seemed to have something to say, Jiang Chen looked around.
"Got it."
。。。
Ye Qiu and the other three entered the tavern, while the 20 sailors were instructed by old Charles to find an experienced sailor to handle procurement.
Different from the taverns in the port of Green Velon continent, the customs there were influenced by the local culture, but lacked the rich flavor here.
The tavern was quite noisy, old Charles told them to find a seat while he went to buy drinks ahead.
Ye Qiu and a few others sat here, occasionally hearing some drunken ramblings.
"Oh no, buddy, I really need to go to the loo, can’t drink any more…"
"Haha, that doesn’t sound like something you would say, right?"
"Hey, have you guys heard of something called the Human Alliance? They have taken over several port cities on the continent we often visit… those ones."
"I heard that, a friend told me those people are sailing towards us on their bird ships…"
"Come on, bring it on, I dare you!"
"Let’s show those landlubbers who’s boss in the water!"
"Are you interested in doing something big, friend?"
"Those land-based merchant ships are always loaded with riches. When those people arrive, we’ll make a huge profit from them, what do you think?"
"Haha, I’ve been wanting to do this for a long time!"
