Infinite Throne

   Chapter 210 Gilded Mire (2 in 1 ask for a monthly pass)

  The skeleton gentleman waved his hand towards the crowd from a distance.

   is like a goodbye between lovers, which is meaningful.

how is this possible!

   Unscientific!

  Tiramisu's hands clenched tightly with the sniper rifle slightly trembling.

   She can be sure that she is absolutely accurate. After all, she is experienced and can never aim at the wrong position.

   There is absolutely no reason, nor should it.

  Tiramisu exploded in anger after a moment of astonishment, throwing everything out of his mind, and without saying a word, shot the second bullet out.

boom!

   Another golden bullet was fired.

  scoff!

  Beside the skeleton gentleman, on the floor, a piece of gravel suddenly splashed, which was a sign that the bullet had missed.

  The third one!

boom!

   The fourth one!

boom!

  No one knows why so many sharp sniper bullets can be hidden in the deep V of Tiramisu.

But all the navies stared at Admiral Tiramisu in their hearts, and like a shrew, they took out bullets one after another from their clothes, loaded and fired frantically, and there seemed to be no sign of stopping at all. .

  Dingdingdingding—

   Hollow cartridge cases landed one after another.

"he's gone."

  Irin kept holding the telescope and looked at the end of the street until there was no one or any dog ​​at the end of Victoria Avenue, then put down the telescope and said slowly.

  Tiramisu: "…"

   Tiramisu deserves to be at the level of an admiral. Such a strange thing happened to him, but he quickly calmed down.

Seeing that the legendary big pirate skeleton gentleman who mastered "black magic" completely disappeared from everyone's sight, Tiramisu slowly put down his gun, his face was black, and his expression was a bit hideous, but he was still pretty pretty.

  Tani Tianqing casts his gaze behind Elizabeth Rin from time to time, thoughtfully.

"Search!"

  Tiramisu shook the sniper rifle in his hand, his face was expressionless. In a burst of brilliance and the sound of gears grinding in, the delicate and domineering golden sniper rifle was transformed into a long and narrow cigarette rod, which was very miraculous.

  Irin is very interested in the deformable high-tech sniper rifle in Tiramisu's hand, but in front of everyone's eyes, he can't do anything bad, so he can only resolutely suppress this thought and talk about it when he has a chance.

   After quietly sending a series of messages to Wang Tiandi, without waiting for Gouzi's reply, Yi Rin followed the navy team and searched Victoria Avenue thoroughly.

  No accident, Tiramisu went straight to where the skeleton gentleman stood not long ago.

   On the ground, there were several bullet holes left, and the terrifying sniper bullets had already been deeply embedded in the stone slabs and were difficult to pull out.

   All the navies were apprehensive, under the command of Tiramisu, centered on Victoria Avenue, spread out and searched thoroughly.

  Tonight, doomed to stay up all night.

   When Yilin returned to Swan Castle, the sky was already lit up with a fish maw white.

Regarding the departure of Elizabeth Rin, Tiramisu didn't even ask much, because all her attention was on searching for the **** pirate. As for where the Governor's fiancee wanted to go, Tiramisu simply Do not care.

   Gu Tianqing just smiled slightly before Yi Rin left, and whispered "beautiful lady, please be safe", and then didn't say anything else.

   This made Yi Rin's vigilance against Gu Tianqing a little bit deeper.

  Tani Haru… seems to be a more sinister character than Irin imagined.

   Doubt?

   Yi Rin can confirm that even if this happened tonight, Gu Tianqing would still doubt Yi Rin.

   After all, at this level, no apostle is really weak, and there will always be something special.

   "Haha, it's getting more and more interesting."

  Irin suppressed the sudden excitement in her heart, then turned it on like a shadow, slipped into the room quietly, and locked the door with her backhand.

   And in the girl's boudoir.

  Ruth was about to take off her "Skull Gentleman" outfit and put on a black and white maid outfit.

   Seeing Yi Rin sneaking in and locking the door, Ruth immediately entangled her, her face flushed.

   "About! Rin! Tonight is really, too, too exciting!"

  The dog lay on the side and yawned lazily.

"You are not afraid?"

Yi Rin looked at Ruth, whose expression was a little wrong, and slapped Ruth. The full set of "Skull Gentleman" krypton-gold appearance equipment was turned into a card in a blink of an eye. Rin has included the "Skull Gentleman Appearance Set" in the storage space.

   "Fuck! Rin, how can you be so skilled!"

  Ruth subconsciously covered the top, thought for a while, then covered the bottom again, thought for a while, then simply opened her arms and posed her pose, showing a charming figure in front of Yi Rin.

   "Quickly put on your clothes."

  Irin's eyes twitched slightly, reminding me seriously.

  Ruth now knew very well that once Irene spoke in such a tone, it was not a good time to make a joke, so she obediently dressed herself as a maid.

   While Ruth didn't move, Irin sat on the bed, thinking about everything that happened tonight.

  Mysterious Governor, Governor's Mansion, Infrared Sensor, Password Elevator, Secrets Under the Governor's Mansion, Deal with Calypso, Demon Lord, Tiramisu's Strange Weapon, Strange Technology Tree.

  Clues, fragments, and speculations were rearranged in Irin's mind, and then, as if pulling out a cocoon, useful content was extracted from these messy information.

   "Outsiders..."

   Suddenly.

  Irin remembered what Calypso called him during that hurricane.

   "That's right, Ruth."

   "Huh? Need a massage, my captain."

   Ruth instantly transformed herself from maid to exclusive masseuse tone.

"…,it is good."

   So, the two of them set up their poses and started buffing.

   After all, buff status is really important.

   Bedside.

  The dog pouted and covered his eyes with his paws.

   "Are you comfortable my captain?"

"Um…"

   "My dear captain, when are you going to bomb the Governor's Palace again?"

  Ruth couldn't help but be a little excited when she thought of the experience tonight.

  “…”

  The massage is finished.

  Irin looked at the brand-new BUFF on the Apostle's panel, refreshed.

   He knocked on the floor in front of Gouzi, and Gouzi raised his eyelids with a somewhat unhappy expression on his face, as if protesting that Yilin had disturbed Mr. Gou's closed eyes.

   "Next, according to normal development, the navy will definitely search the entire city for the whereabouts of the skeleton gentleman, um, and a dog."

  Wang Tiandi: "Wang."

  The dog means he understands.

Yilin continued: "Since that guy is a senior advisor to the Navy, we must prevent him from suggesting some bad ideas to the Navy, such as...searching for Swan Castle and the like. So, you who have been exposed, these few Heaven must not be exposed to anyone."

Although up and down Swan Castle, everyone knew that Elizabeth Rin brought a dog back, but all the ladies in London seem to have the habit of raising some kind of pets to improve their style. For Yi Rin , is not a big problem.

  Without evidence, it doesn't count as a car.

   Also, what the Navy wants to find is a skeleton gentleman rather than a dog.

  Tonight, Yi Rin originally wanted to see if there was a chance in the chaos to force the mysterious governor out, come back to the governor's mansion, and go under the elevator to find out.

   As for the sniper rifle that was beyond the scope of this world's technology, it was beyond Yi Rin's surprise, which made things even more bizarre.

From the very beginning, Yilin prepared a [bullet deflection] for the dog in advance to prevent Ruth from being surrounded by the navy, so that the dog could shoot the [bullet deflection] on Ruth at a critical moment, Avoid Ruth getting killed by Navy bullets.

  Although the development of things is quite different from what Yilin originally imagined, Yilin also found more oddities in this plot mode.

   In general, there are pros and cons.

  Irin recalled the deal with Calypso again.

  In the "Curse" column in the captain's panel, there is an additional item "Calypso's Gaze", which makes Irin feel that something is not good.

  If you don’t fulfill Calypso’s commission as agreed, there may be some terrible consequences.

   Of course, Irin is not afraid, after all, it is just a curse.

   It's just that Irin doesn't know how powerful Calypso, who calls himself "Poseidon", has reached.

   Know everything? omnipotent?

  Irin smiled slightly.

   "If it's so awesome, why would you entrust that matter to an ordinary human being?"

   "Outsiders? Huh."

   In deep thought, Irin, who had been busy all night, also felt a little sleepy, so she lay directly on the bed and gradually fell asleep.

   The next day.

  Three poles on the sun.

  Irin dressed in costumes and came to the Governor's Palace once again openly.

   After the explosion last night, the government's mansion has been strengthened by several levels. The guards are stacked in three circles and three circles around, and the entire governor's mansion is surrounded by water, which is almost impossible to leak.

  Irin stood on the spot and roughly estimated for a while, even if [Follow the Shadow] was turned on, under this kind of defense, it was impossible to sneak in without being discovered.

   This can no longer be called a patrol. It is simply stationed here with heavy troops, and there is no gap.

  Irin raised her head.

   looked at the roof of the Governor's Palace.

   Unless… it’s from above.

  Irin revealed her identity, but was still blocked from the encircling net.

   "The Governor has ordered that from now on, not to see anyone, even the esteemed Governor-General's fiancee."

The squad leader led by    apologetically rejected Irin's request to see the Governor.

The more    protected that governor, the more Irin felt that there was something tricky about it.

   It's just the current situation, and Irin is not good at pushing hard, so he can only give up for the time being.

   Furthermore, he came to the Governor's Mansion for a walk, just to take a look on the way, and he didn't really have to meet the "fiance" in a normal way.

   in the communication panel.

   After Yi Rin canceled "Do Not Disturb" to Gu Tianqing, neither of them took the initiative to initiate a private chat, but became strangely silent and fell into a delicate state.

   "The 'smoke bomb' is enough, and it would be too deliberate to continue."

  Irin soon twisted her waist and left the Governor's Mansion.

  The whole of London is immersed in a tense atmosphere.

   Along the street, the wanted notices for "Skull Gentlemen" were posted.

The    wanted list is a man wearing an elegant tuxedo, a skull gentleman's hat, and a "smiley" mask on his face.

  —There is also a dog with a ferocious face and baring fangs.

   The bounty above is…£100,000.

   For a **** pirate, this is undoubtedly a huge bounty.

   It was just that Irin almost couldn't help laughing when she saw this bounty order that was recreated overnight.

The image of the dog on the wanted list is as terrifying as it is terrifying. It is like a creature from hell, and even the background of the dog uses an abstract technique to paint a large black shadow with black ink. Adds a bit of a spooky atmosphere to the dog.

   According to the image of this wanted list, it would be **** to find that stupid dog.

  Irin held back her laughter and left the place silently.

   One day without words.

   until late at night.

  London.

  Mist filled the air.

  The moon is dark and the wind is cool.

  In Swan Castle, two women in disguise sneaked out.

   went directly to the slum.

  Irin and Ruth, in order to reduce unnecessary trouble, simply disguised themselves and looked less conspicuous as they walked through the narrow alleys.

   Corruption, oil stains, moss.

  Crawling cockroaches, happy hopping rats, criss-crossing ditches, the sewage is completely untreated, and it stinks in the sewers.

   There is a smell of poverty everywhere, and compared with the luxurious urban area, it is like a world of difference, and it is clear at a glance.

   And in the slums, there is not even a guard, it seems that in London, this is a dirty corner that even the royal guards do not want to visit.

   "This is obviously a good place to hide people, why don't you search here and search the streets?"

  Irin immediately felt a little funny when she saw it.

  Ruth shrugged helplessly: "Who knows, maybe those guys think that the elegant captain is not willing to hide in such a ghost place."

  Irin was speechless.

In his opinion, it is more likely that Tiramisu issued an order to search the whole city, but the guards below, knowing that there was such a place in London, were too dirty and messy to come. Searching here, pretending to be diligent, shedding sweat and tears on the streets of London, typical bureaucratic style.

   Can you see the leaders working in the slums?

   is useless!

   It is better to sweat on the street against the scorching sun, and get the appreciation of the upper class.

  Irin quickly understood the mystery.

  In the narrow alley, in addition to cockroaches and mice, there are also stinking poor people.

  There were quite a few flies and mosquitoes, smelling the enticing smell of the poor, and hovering over the heads of the poor lying in piles.

  Ruth frowned, took out a small delicate wipe and covered her mouth and nose.

  Irin doesn't care. Anyway, he has experienced even worse environments. This is just a pediatrician. Apart from being a little uncomfortable, it doesn't bleed, and there's nothing special about it.

   After half an hour.

  Ruth and Irin finally arrived at their destination.

   "I suggest you put away that **** wipe in your hand."

  Irin turned her head expressionlessly and reminded.

   Ruth was reluctant, but under Irin's serious threat, she crumpled the wet wipes into a ball and threw them in the corner with disgust.

   In front of the two of them, there was a pile of messy garbage, piled up into a hill, exuding an indescribable smell.

   In the hill, there is a faint passage, there is no light, the dark passage, like the entrance to the magic cave, looks very scary.

   Ruth waved to Yi Rin in a low voice: "Captain, here!"

  Irin followed the sound and approached.

   On the ground that Ruth pointed to, there was a simple skull pattern engraved.

   Without hesitation, after Ruth pointed out the entrance, Irene went straight into the garbage heap.

The sides of the    are full of garbage of various shapes, not sorted, and I don't know how long it has been accumulated here, and even a lot of corrupt food is covered with white bugs.

  Irin finally understood at this moment why in the huge London, there could be a gathering place for pirates, hidden in the big city.

   As the saying goes, the big is hidden in the city, and the small is hidden in the dirty.

   This kind of dirty place, let alone the navy, if it wasn't for Irin's special purpose and no special reason, he would never want to approach this place.

The passage formed by the    garbage mountain slopes downward at an angle of about 30 degrees. After walking out for about ten meters, the surrounding gradually becomes a substantial wall, which is no longer composed of those garbage. Relatively speaking, it looks a lot cleaner.

   And Ruth's frowning furrowed slightly.

soon.

   A slight vibration came from the front, mixed with a loud noise.

   Take a few more steps.

  The pungent and rich rum smell gradually overshadowed the rotten smell.

finally.

   suddenly opened up.

   The dim light ignited the darkness ahead.

Ruth explained in Yi Rin's ear at the right time: "This place is said to have been an underground warehouse used by a noble to hide treasures, but one day, this warehouse was visited by pirates and cleaned up, and the noble did not fall. When did this city become a slum."

   At the end of the light, there are two tattered wooden doors that are useless, as if they will fall down with a single tap.

  Irin reached out and pushed.

Snapped.

  The door actually smashed down, laying in front of Yi Rin, like touching porcelain.

   No, this is simply touching porcelain.

   "Hey, **** pirates, you dare to break the gate of the 'gilded mire' and lose money!"

  A dirty little hand stretched out from the darkness, and at the same time, from behind the door panel, a face full of mud and dirt came forward with a smile.

   While asking for money, the dirty child seemed to be looking at Yi Rin and Ruth, and there was a bit of doubt in the bright eyes.

   Before Yi Rin could speak, Ruth was already angry, pointed at the dirty child's nose and cursed: "Damn, I only came here yesterday, and you didn't fix this **** door at all!"

   Dirty Child pulled out a small wooden sign from behind like magic.

   A few words are written on it.

  —"Damn pirates, welcome."

  —"Wooden doors are expensive, please compensate according to the price for damage."

  —"If you don't compensate, please be careful about rum, it may be poisonous."

  -"Poisoned, dead will be left behind."

  Irin: "…"

  Ruth: "…"

   This is a blatant threat.

   and extortion.

  Irin was curious: "Did you lose money yesterday?"

   "It's a loss, but I didn't expect the style here to be more like a pirate than us."

  Ruth was helpless and was about to take out a few copper plates.

   Suddenly.

   In the dim light, a red shadow flashed between Irin and the dirty child.

  pop.

   Two **** fingers fell to the ground. Those **** seemed to be completely unaware that they had been cut off, and were still twisting slightly.

  The dirty child looked shocked.

  Irin smiled slightly, cut off two of the child's fingers, took out a brand new gold coin, and pressed it into the palm of the severed finger. In a blink of an eye, the gold coin was covered with blood.

   "These **** are to give you a piece of advice."

   "Some people can't be touched casually."

   "This gold coin is your compensation."

   After leaving three sentences, Irin dragged Ruth, who was stunned, into the underground tavern.

   "Go away, don't appear in front of pirates in the future."

The dirty child stared blankly at the **** gold coins in the palm of his hand, until the two pirates who didn't look like pirates, but were more cruel than any pirates left, did they feel the sharp pain from the broken fingers, and then Bending his back, biting his lower lip, he squatted on the ground, enduring the pain, not letting himself cry.

   After a few minutes.

  The pain eased a little, and the dirty child in ragged clothes stood up, clutching the gold coin in his mouth, and muttering in a low voice, "Damn pirate!"

   Then he laughed stupidly again. He suddenly seemed to have thought of something. He hid the gold coins in his arms, as if they were afraid of being stolen. Seeing that there was no one around, he left the passage with confidence.

  Ruth was silent for a moment.

   After a few seconds, he said in a low voice, "Some people can't touch it casually?"

  Irin couldn't help rolling her eyes when she heard the words.

  What is Ruth paying attention to?

  The pirate bar hidden in the bustling London underground is called the "gilded mire".

   I don't know whose taste it is, and took such a tasteless name.

   Pirate Bar, as it seems, only a pirate would visit this kind of place.

  After all, in London, where the royal guards are everywhere, pirates are a dark existence.

  Have to play this underground party style to drink a good glass of rum.

  I don’t know if it’s because it’s underground, the gilded quagmire is airtight, and the whole space is filled with a rotten smell mixed with various odors.

   It looks even messier than the "Hot Rose" run by Ruth. If there is a restaurant hygiene rating agency in this world, this pub will undoubtedly be rated five stars.

  —negative five-star.

  What happened at the door did not cause any commotion.

   To be precise, unless Yi Rin directly took out a blasting bead and blew up the place, these pirates who had been drinking all the time would not notice any subtle movement.

   The two entered the tavern.

  The taste is overwhelming.

   As for the taste, Yi Rin was too lazy to distinguish carefully, it was not a good taste anyway.

  Ruth had been here once yesterday, but she was just looking for a place to inquire about news, and she didn't stay in the gilded mire for too long.

   For pirates, where is the place to ask for news?

   There is no doubt that it is a tavern where pirates gather.

  Pirates have always been known for having no secrets.

  The tavern has a lot of space. After all, it used to be a warehouse used by a noble to hide treasures. The space is too small to justify, and it looks very empty.

   Above the head, the swaying oil lamp, the dim yellow light reflected the distorted and swaying shadows on the pirates. From a distance, it seemed like a group of demons dancing, adding a bit of a weird and terrifying atmosphere out of thin air.

   But on closer inspection, Yi Rin has the illusion of stepping into an informal modern bar and dancing on the dance floor full of colorful neon lights, but unfortunately there is no music.

  ding, ding dong—

The thought of   Irin just sounded.

  Behind the bar, an old man dressed stylishly with various braids on his head, his eyelids drooping, his legs crossed, holding a musical instrument like a guitar and playing it ding ding dong dong.

  "Hoohoo~Let's sail together~Raise the flag~"

   "Lah~ little thief and beggar~ we will never die~"

   Hehe, who said there was no music?

   Many people began to sing loudly and sang the song of pirates.

   Actually, the vocals and the guitar accompaniment are not in the same dimension at all, they are not the same song at all.

   "Huh? Why are people still nailed to the wall?"

   Ruth suddenly pointed to a wall.

  Irin glanced at it and was too lazy to pay attention to it, so she took Ruth and picked a relatively quiet corner, where there happened to be an unoccupied table, and the two sat down.

ten minutes later.

  Irin and Ruth, who had nothing to do, finally waited for the waiter.

   A flattering, somewhat familiar voice sounded behind them.

   "Hey, hey, welcome to the 'gilded quagmire', oh, you two are really good-looking, the skilled Charlie will serve you intimately, how many rums do you want?"

  Irin and Ruth turned their heads.

An ugly man with a blue nose and a swollen face, a man who was beaten so hard that his mother could hardly even recognize him, was trying his best to squeeze a dog-licking smile, rubbing his index fingers and thumbs at Irin and Ruth, as if expecting. With some kind of reward called a "tip".

   New month! Seek all kinds of support!
