"This is a broken ship. The person at the helm probably has worse eyesight than I do."
Pleasant grinned and complained secretly.
With the departure of the middle-aged police officer, the greasy uncle sitting opposite Plisson was replaced by a young policewoman named Tilisa. Compared with the talkative Officer Balk, the Tilisa in front of him Officer Lisa's attitude towards Pleasant was much cooler - at least she didn't take the initiative to chat with Pleasant.
"Beautiful lady, are you a native of Norton?"
Pleasant felt the extraordinary strength gradually recovering in his body over time, his expression improved a little, and he began to actively talk to the police officer in front of him.
"No, I was sent from another province."
Tilisa answered Plisson's question succinctly.
"Did you offend your superiors, so you were sent to the most hellish city in this hellish place?" Plissen seemed to be interested.
"You seem to dislike Norton. Are you a local?" Tilisa did not answer directly, but asked Pleasant instead.
This little girl... is quite good at chatting.
"...I've been here for eight years, which is barely half of it." Plisson looked up at the ceiling, and the loneliness in his dark blue eyes flashed past.
If we talk about real home, his hometown...may not be anywhere in the world.
"Eight years...that means you are not a native of Norton."
Pleasant shook his head, with a hint of joking at the corner of his mouth, "No, but in terms of bloodline and origin, if I trace it back to the previous generations, they are all great nobles in the Southern Territory."
Hearing this, Tilisa couldn't help but shook her head.
The identities of the great nobles in the southern territory of Tianying and the pirates in the northern edge of Tianying are too different, and it is impossible to connect the two together in any case.
Sure enough, there was not a word of truth in the pirate's mouth.
But Tilisa continued to ask, "Then what is your name?"
Plissen did not answer, but lowered his head and said: "I just talked too much, and my lips are a little dry. Beautiful lady, can you pour me a glass of water?"
Tilisa nodded, did not refuse Pleasant's request, stood up, poured a glass of water, and placed it on the table in front of Pleasant.
"Thank you, but I'm tied up now and can't seem to hold a cup. Can you feed me a drink?"
Tilisa frowned, but she still took the cup and put it to Plisson's mouth.
"Thanks."
With a smile on his face, Plisson thanked Tilisa, but then he instantly broke the rope that tied him to the seat, strangled the female police officer's neck with handcuffs, and violently He covered her mouth to prevent her from calling for help.
After having recovered some extraordinary strength, breaking away from these ordinary ropes is easy for a high-level knight who prefers a strength-oriented profession. The reason why Plisson kept walking in circles with the police officer who came to question him was to delay time. Recovering and waiting for an opportunity like now.
Plisson came close to Tilisa's ear and said in a low voice: "Miss, if you don't want to die, it's best not to move."
Hearing Plisson's threatening words, Tilisa struggled even more.
But in terms of strength, how could an ordinary woman who was not even a "trainee apprentice" be compared to a high-level knight.
Even if the high-level knight is in a bad state now.
Pleasant had no choice but to increase his strength and temporarily choked the young police officer unconscious.
"Sorry, this was a necessary and unintentional move." Pleasant glanced at the unconscious Tilisa and quickly groped around on her body, but except for an ordinary pistol loaded with bullets, Pleasant There will be no gain.
"The handcuff keys are not on her."
Pleasant tried to pull on the handcuffs he was wearing, but in his current state, it was difficult to break the chains on the handcuffs.
"The key should be with the previous policeman, but if we want to start from this aspect, we have to wait for him to come back first, or try another method."
Pleasant thought this, and then kicked the locked storage box in the corner of the room to pieces.
In the broken storage box, there was a shabby coat stained with blood and a long sword with a silver handle in a scabbard.
"Not only do they let the "criminal" and his weapons stay in the same room, they also don't put the precious loot into a better box... Alas, maybe Count Macassius's salary is too low. Alright."
Pleasant rummaged through the pockets of his coat, but found nothing.
Wait, I can understand that Connor's enchanted musket is gone, but the treasure robbed by the pirates should be considered stolen goods, right? You kept a few gold coins to show off, but why did you even take away my keys?
"Fortunately, this group of people at least kept this 'Kanglan'. They obviously didn't realize the preciousness of this weapon... Well... It should be that the sword and coat are not easy to carry on the body. For the time being, Put it in the box first." Plissen sighed, but he still endured the heartache of losing wealth and pulled out his sword named Kuanglan from its scabbard, and used the sword blade with "sharp" magic patterns to relax The ground cut off the chain linking the handcuffs.
"I don't want this fine coat that's worth several gold coins. I'll save it for buying a coffin for the parents of Count Macassius, that black-hearted entrepreneur."
Pleasant adjusted his white shirt, which had several scratches and bullet holes, and kicked the clothes he had just worn as if to vent his anger.
Unexpectedly, right here, the room began to shake extremely violently, and it was even said that the entire ship began to shake violently. The unusual shaking almost caused Plisson to fall down as he lost his balance.
"What kind of broken ship is this? What the hell did it hit again?" After taking his sword back into his hand, Pleasant had recovered some of his extraordinary strength and his confidence was greatly increased. So he was not afraid of being discovered. Pleasant directly Go to the window and prepare to look through the window to see what is happening on the deck.
On the spacious deck, several police officers held up pistols and weapons to confront the two huge tentacles protruding from the sea, with unknown and fear written on their faces.
One of the huge tentacles wrapped around the mast, and the other was beating wildly on the deck, causing the entire ship to sway continuously, creating a continuous feeling of vibration.
While maintaining your own safety, prevent the monster's tentacles from damaging the hull. Under normal circumstances, the monster will not actively attack people. Try to appease it. Don't let it break the mast, and don't try to attack it. This was the task assigned to them by their superiors who stayed on the deck before disembarking.
Maybe this boss had foresight. Whatever he was afraid of, it actually happened.
One of the police officers who remained on the deck witnessed the increasing damage to the sailboat from the depths of the sea. His inner anxiety caused his gun to go off, hitting the waving tentacles.
The tentacle took a solid shot, but this damage seemed to have no effect on it, and made the sea monsters that may exist under the sea even more violent.
Two other tentacles stretched out from the sea again, one pulled the railing on the edge of the hull, and the other directly wrapped around the police officer who fired the gun, lifted him high and threw him into the sea.
"The Sea Monster of Neoros? Why is this first-level legendary deep-sea creature wandering around in the Sea of Storms in a remote place like Norton?"
Pleasant could clearly see the situation outside through the window. While quite surprised, he was also secretly pleased.
The Neoros sea monster is a relatively docile giant creature. Due to its rarity and individual strength, it is listed as a first-level legendary creature. Under normal circumstances, these extremely large and terrifying octopuses will not actively hurt people, but once attacked , they will enter a furious counterattack state. Although they do not have any magical abilities, their strength under their huge size will never be inferior to that of any great knight. What's more, the Neoros Sea Monster also has powerful deep-sea combat capabilities and extremely strong regeneration capabilities. These are enough Let this group of giant octopuses in the deep sea be listed as one of the legendary creatures.
If there were not strong men who took the initiative to hunt down the Neoros sea monsters to obtain the cores and materials in their bodies, ordinary fleets would never provoke this group of peaceful and docile but extremely powerful legendary creatures.
This kind of monster is usually only distributed in the Sea of Storms in the northwest of the West Sea, and appears in groups in groups, with only a small number of individuals wandering around. However, when it comes to whether the Neoros sea monster appears around Norton The situation...at least Pleasant has not seen in so many years.
Why did this giant octopus attack the ship? How did the people on this ship provoke him?
Pleasant didn't understand this, but it was not a bad thing for him that the ship was attacked by a sea monster. On the contrary, it might be of great help to him.
Because what he saw was not just a waving sea monster tentacle, but a perfect opportunity, an easy way to escape.
Although he is a high-level knight, his current state is really not optimistic. The police officers on the ship all have guns. With the suppression of his extraordinary rank, he can kill a person with one sword, but similarly, he will definitely not feel good if he is shot. What's more, there is a person on the ship who is suspected of being an extraordinary professional. The person is likely to be a direct subordinate of Count Macassius, and the specific rank is unknown. It will be very dangerous for him to directly attack this group of people.
Plisson's original idea was to kidnap the unconscious Tilisa first and find a way to negotiate with the person on the ship, or with Count Macacius behind him. He is an old acquaintance with Count Macassius, and he can try to persuade the nobleman's men to let him go through some promises and benefits. If this method fails, it will not be too late to violently break through with the enchanted long sword Kuanglan.
But now...let's talk about a hammer blow.
Through the window, Pleasant saw that his boat was not lost at sea, but was tied to the back of the boat by a rope. Although he lamented that this group of people would even go along with a small broken boat that was not worth many silver coins, Plissen's inner joy was even greater than this.
Forced escape may have been a more unfeasible plan before, but after the sea monster appeared, this became the most direct and effective plan.
Not only are there not many people stopping you, but the boat for escape has been prepared for you.
With this thought, the huge and ugly sea monster tentacles outside the window seemed to become cute.
"Take your broken ship and play with the sea monsters. I'll take the first step."
Pleasant would not miss such a good opportunity. He opened the window on the right side of the room and quickly got out of the window.
This reduces the risk a bit compared to taking the main entrance, at least you won't be exposed to bullets, and it's also closer to the rope connecting the big ship and the small boat.
"See you soon."
Pleasant stood on the railing, and after saying a cordial farewell, he jumped onto the small boat on which he left Black Crow Harbor.
When he already has an attack target, he doesn't have to worry about the docile big octopus extending its tentacles to attack him.
Everyone on the deck was still anxious to deal with the sea monster's tentacles that kept extending. Plisson, who was still restrained just now, had already cut the rope, drove the boat that symbolized freedom, and moved quickly in the other direction.
And because the police boat was still entangled by the sea monster's tentacles, it was unable to turn or move forward at all, and there were even faint signs of sinking. So even if the many police officers on the deck saw Plisson changing his strategy after paddling frantically to distance himself, paddling with one hand and waving at them with the other hand, there was nothing they could do.
The distance between the two sides was far beyond the range of ordinary guns, not to mention that they had to guard against the giant sea monster with its teeth and claws next to the ship.
They could only watch Pleasant waving his hands as he moved further and further away from them...until the other party completely disappeared from their sight.
