Chapter 177

Colonel Special, I am a knight from the Templar, you can call me Moria. "Hearing this, the colonel's serious eyes softened. "Captain Remington mentioned you to me. Why, do you have any information about the fugitives to report? Or are you saying that you have urgent matters that cannot be delayed and cannot stay here for a long time? The Adventurer will not set sail until the fugitive is found. If your matter is really urgent, I can send a small boat to take you to the nearest port. "Thank you very much for your advice, but that's not what I want to say. A strange color flashed through the young priest's calm pupils. He handed the shell to the colonel, "First of all, this was found in our room; secondly, I want to know the information about the fugitive. If possible, please allow me to participate in this operation." As a pastor of Glory, I cannot sit idly by. After all, His messengers have taught us: All evil we see must be eradicated. "In addition, as early as when he boarded the ship, Moriah regarded it as his responsibility to ensure that the ship reached its destination safely. After all, he just didn't have the money to pay the shipping fee. It didn't mean that he liked to take advantage of other people's ships without paying the price. "This feeling does seem like that guy's handiwork. "The colonel took the shell and his face immediately became serious, "As for your request, please forgive me for rejecting it. "He gave this glowing priest a considerable degree of respect, but it was this respect that forced him not to agree to this matter. After all... "Maybe you don't believe it, but Joseph Wilblood, the fugitive, is a very formidable opponent. I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to intervene in this battle based on your strength alone. Of course, neither can I. But please believe that there will be dedicated people to deal with that guy. If you are worried, please protect the passengers on the ship when the battle occurs. "Grant didn't know Moriah's strength, but judging from the opponent's race and age, even if he was a member of the temple's crew, the colonel did not think he was much stronger than him. Seeing that Moriah could not convince the colonel, he chose to remain silent. However, judging from his character, Li Wen speculated that he would not sit idly by and watch. At this time, the accompanying navy had completed the search of the crew and passengers. They ran over nervously, "Sir, there is no problem with the number of passengers, but the crew list does not match... If this list is accurate, then at least six people have not appeared and been investigated!" "Six people?" "As soon as these words came out, not only Colonel Grant, but also the captain Mr. Remington's expression changed. Chapter 187 Doubts "We searched the entire ship and couldn't find them. "What does this mean?" "The colonel snorted coldly, and the veins on Gujing Fubo's face popped out, like a volcano about to erupt, "Captain Remington, do you have anything to say? "The captain looked in disbelief at first, and then seemed to suddenly remember something, and showed an expression of realization. "If it is confirmed that there are six people... then I think I know who they are, and they probably have nothing to do with Joseph. "He said with an embarrassed look. The colonel looked at him coldly, took out a white towel from his coat pocket, and wiped the short gun in his hand. "You'd better give a reasonable explanation, Captain Remington. "Ahem, here's the thing..." Remington wiped his sweat. Even though he was as strong as a grizzly bear, he still felt inadequate when facing the officers of the Kingdom's navy. "When I was in Leicester some time ago, because some crew members were sick and needed to recover, the ship began to be short of manpower, so I tried to find suitable personnel in various taverns in Leicester. "Those six young people met in a pub in Leicester. Remington continued, with a hint of apology in his voice, "They were looking for jobs at the time. Seeing that they were too young, I felt kindhearted and recruited them to come to the ship to do whatever they could. I thought I could help them, but unexpectedly this happened. Colonel Grant frowned, obviously not satisfied with this explanation: "So, why did they disappear during the search?" What happened on this ship? Remington smiled bitterly: "This is also what I am puzzled by." Those young people behaved strangely and exaggeratedly, which is difficult to understand with normal people's thinking. They were always mysterious and mysterious. However, they were all benevolent and obeyed the arrangements of the old crew members, so I never thought of the worst. Now that I think about it, maybe they have some dark secret. As for where those six people went, I really have no clue. "Li Wen listened quietly, but she had some calculations in her mind. She guessed that those so-called "young people" are most likely to be players. Only players will match the various descriptions. In addition, they can return to reality anytime and anywhere by going offline. This may be the reason why those "sailors" disappeared. It is not strange that players appear on the ship, after all, they are always everywhere. However, Captain Remington's vague statement did not convince the colonel. He looked livid and did not know what he was thinking. Remington did not make it clear. It explained why the six people had nothing to do with Joseph, but Li Wen had some guesses. He probably heard about the player's existence from Selwyn or other members of the Ragowin family, and had a lot of knowledge about it. The player had only become active in this world recently, so it was naturally impossible to be related to the pirate mate who had been rampant in the sea decades ago. The colonel called the navy and gave some instructions in a low voice. It seemed that the six players were Joseph and his gang. "Li Wen suddenly spoke at this moment, his voice was cold and calm, "The crew list may not include all the crew members. As far as I know, there is another person who boarded the ship neither as a crew member nor as a passenger. "You mean, old Joey?" He has been on the ship, could it be..." Mr. Remington said with a slightly dry voice. This attitude was really strange. Li Wen glanced at the captain. She nodded, with a hint of doubt in her tone: "During the previous search, I had already counted carefully, and there was no figure of Old Joey in the crowd. This old sailor seemed to have 'disappeared' too. "This old Joey, who is he?" "The colonel frowned. Mr. Captain could only tell a rough story about Old Joey, but after he finished speaking, he added, "Although Old Joey is sometimes nervous, it is because of his own experience. In normal times, he is just an experienced old sailor. "The young colonel had a sullen face. He looked at Remington deeply, "Are you sure he won't be Joseph Wilblood? "Yes, Colonel." Mr. Captain replied with great certainty, "Old Joey has been in a state of confusion since his accident thirty years ago. There is no way he could be that notorious pirate." "But you have to know that Roberts was killed by the Cide more than thirty years ago." His experience only made people doubt his relationship with Joseph. "But Colonel." "Captain Remington asked doubtfully, "Then if Old Joey is indeed Joseph Wellblood, for what reason did he pretend to be crazy and act like a fool for thirty years? For what reason, do you want to board this ship even if you have to suffer the glare, ridicule and insults from the crew? Do you want to stay on the ship even if you are doing the most menial and menial job? Do you think this is something a ferocious and cruel pirate can tolerate? "Colonel Grant opened his mouth, but he was speechless. At this time, Moriah stepped forward and said softly: "Colonel Grant, I think the most important thing now is to find those missing people, no matter how many people are missing.
