The great pirate "Flower Bow Tie"
Lorry hesitated for two minutes, torn between putting the "Calamity Bracelet" into another Dimension or entrusting it to the "Messenger" lady for safekeeping.
Finally, it was decided to temporarily put it into the "Book of Dimensions" for future use, as it would be relatively troublesome to retrieve it from the "Messenger" lady.
After doing all this, he looked at the twelve scrolls of different materials and colors, recalling the introduction of the "Seer" lady in his mind.
The two yellow scrolls correspond to "Illumination," the three black scrolls correspond to "Exorcism," the two red scrolls correspond to "Fireball," the two purple scrolls correspond to "Lightning," the two cyan scrolls correspond to "Wind Spell," and the last semi-transparent scroll corresponds to "Force Field."
Based on the description, Lorry suspects that Laticia's method of returning the "Distortion" lightning to its original trajectory was the latter.
However, since there was only one left, he did not conduct the experiment.
The principle behind magic scrolls and Charm is similar: if more effort is not put into "solidifying" them, the power they contain will quickly dissipate.
These hastily prepared scrolls have a shelf life of up to seven days.
After seven days, its power will begin to diminish, and within three days it will become completely useless waste.
"But they're alright; they can hold out for another five days. It must have been something Laticia specially prepared for this exploration of the ancient Elven Ruins."
Lorry speculated that they should be placed in another Dimension.
It was already late at night, and it was pitch black outside the window. Exhausted, he decided to rest first and study the "Book of Calamities" after he woke up tomorrow.
I wonder how long it will take for the "Curse of Knowledge" to finish analyzing the "Wraith"... The moment his head hit the pillow, this thought flashed through Lorry's mind, and the next second he drifted off to sleep.
Outside the Inn at this time.
Suddenly, a pair of cold, vertical pupils emerged from the shadows of the roadside trees and bushes, followed by a second pair, a third pair, and so on, densely packed everywhere.
If someone were to walk by at this moment, they would definitely be so frightened that their heart would stop.
The owners of these vertical pupils are all snakes!
Moreover, these are the most venomous snakes that locals fear and dread.
They opened their mouths, flicked their tongues, and hissed, as if driven by someone, surging in all directions like a tide.
Bayam, the Bayam’s Tree Leaf Bar.
Bored and alone in his empty room, Danitz chose to come here to drink and pass the time.
He sat in the shadows of the corner, took a sip of his usual "Lielangqi," and wondered when the captain would contact him.
Suddenly, intermittent murmurs reached my ears from not far away:
"Do you know...?" Steel is dead, killed by Flames and his friends... and Sebas the Bonebreaker is dead too...
"It's said that ' Flames ' hired their Third Mate to do it..."
"Pah! When did I invite that piece of Dogshit? It was clearly the captain who was worried about my safety and gave him the order!" Danitz muttered under his breath.
He subtly shifted his position to make it easier for himself to hear more clearly.
This rumor is true!
"I killed Steel".
Yes, I played a very important role in it! You drunkards, hurry up and praise the great and famous Pirate "Flames"!
Danitz thought to himself with a smug grin, and picked up his glass to take several large gulps.
At this point, someone questioned:
"That can't be right, the Newspaper say the church and the Military were behind it?"
"Newspaper?" The man who had started the conversation scoffed.
"Do you expect a newspaper with a cowardice like a rat to publish the Truth?"
"Ha, I met an old buddy this afternoon. He's now serving in the Military, and he's the one who told me the news. How could it be false?"
Let me tell you:
"Steel," "Blood-colored Thorn," and Scowal died at the hands of "Flames" and his friends.
But Sebas was killed by the "Flower Bow Tie"!
"And!"
He deliberately kept everyone in suspense, slowly sipping his wine until the people around him grew impatient and began to urge him on, at which point he chuckled and said:
"Sebas has advanced his Sequence! Someone should know what that means, right? Heh, he just hasn't announced it yet."
"Therefore, the Bounty remains at £8,200."
"If you ask me, ' Flower Bow Tie ' is still too young. If he waits a while before killing Sebas, he can get a much bigger Bounty."
"A conservative estimate is at least 15,000 pounds!"
"Dogshit... In a while, my and Gehrman's graves will be overgrown with weeds..." Danitz glared at the drunkard who had spoken, annoyed.
He was a little annoyed, feeling that another pile of Dogshit had stolen his thunder.
One of the drunkards who had been listening to the story suddenly realized what was happening and asked loudly, "Then, wouldn't the Bounty for ' Flames ' and ' Flower Bow Tie ' also increase?"
A well-informed source said:
"Of course," Flames's current Bounty is 4200 pounds, and you should see it in the Newspaper by dawn or the day after tomorrow."
"4200 pounds?!" someone exclaimed, then lowered their voice:
"Do you think he's still in Bayam?"
In the corner, the famous Pirate Danitz, who was fantasizing about becoming the strongest Sailor Chief of the "Golden Dream," was startled and quickly shrank his neck.
He suddenly felt that going out for a drink alone was too risky.
Not many people have seen me.
But there are quite a few!
What if he was unlucky enough to be recognized...? Thinking about it, Danitz couldn't help but shudder, picked up his glass, finished it in a few gulps, and prepared to return to the Inn.
As he passed that table, he heard another sentence:
"What's £4,200? Do you know how much the Bounty for ' Flower Bow Tie ' is now? £8,500! That's higher than the previous ' Bonebreaker '!"
This is because some people speculate that he may have used some means to kill "Bonebreaker," rather than using his own true strength.
"Otherwise, hehe..."
8500 pounds! Danitz's eyes widened in shock, and he quickly strode away.
No, I can't stay in Bayam!
He was fine with just his own Bounty; he felt that Gehrman could protect him.
But if he could also contact a Great Pirate with an £8,500 Bounty, he wouldn't be safe even if he stayed with Gehrman!
Thinking of this, Danitz couldn't help but walk faster and faster, finally leaving the Bayam’s Tree Leaf Bar in a hurry, as if someone was chasing him.
A slightly drunkard noticed him and quickly exchanged a glance with his companion, lowering his voice to say, "Boss, that guy looks suspicious, we..."
The next day at noon, Backlund.
Inside the house where Fors and Hugh rented in the Cherwood Borough.
Having just finished writing most of the manuscript, Fors felt quite tired. He looked up at the wall clock and decided to reward himself with a short rest.
She wondered if Hugh would be back today, and whether they should eat at that Desi Pie on the corner later. She found a comfortable position to lie down and let her thoughts wander.
Suddenly, Fors heard the sound of a key Door Opening. She was slightly startled and quickly got up, but her friend who came in saw her doing so.
"Cough." She gave a dry laugh, inwardly cursing her bad luck, and explained with a slightly unnatural expression, "I've only been lying down for less than two minutes!"
"I've been writing about my new book just now..."
