Mystery: The Witch and the Calamity

Chapter 75 Checks and balances in the team

In the small cabin, Joyce was lying on the bed alone, staring at the ceiling "close at hand", feeling a little unaccustomed to it for a while.

However, in my previous life, I always slept on a hard bed... It must be that the aristocratic life after time travel has corrupted me...

He kills the time with his amusing self-justification.

Today is the 22nd, and it will take three days to reach the secret island that Roy said, so I must not be able to return to Bayam on the 28th... Fortunately, I brought these "little hopes" with me, and he took Take a picture of the suitcase next to you and praise your wit.

After a while, Mr. Hunter opened the door and entered the cabin.

Joyce immediately sat up and asked, "Have you gained anything?"

In order not to arouse suspicion, the two chose to go out separately to inquire about the news, so that it would not appear so abrupt.

Mr. Hunt nodded: "Yes, that 'eye' is very useful."

"Time is limited, I dare not make too many moves, I only asked two sailors, but I also got a lot of news."

Afterwards, he began to speak eloquently: "Captain Roy likes to manipulate flames the most in battle. He is good at arranging traps and angering enemies. He is basically the 'arsonist' of the Hunter Path Sequence Seven."

"The chief mate doesn't have any special magical abilities, but his body is very strong, and he is good at using a variety of weapons. It is common for one enemy to fight many. It is doubtful whether he is an extraordinary person."

"The combat power of the second officer is not strong, at least it is far from that of the first officer, but he has an intuition that can simply avoid risks, and even hide and perform some strange rituals mysteriously. There is a high probability that he is an Extraordinary."

"The first mate and the second mate looked down on each other, and the captain Roy stood by and watched this, so that the sailors at the bottom were also divided into two camps..."

Sure enough, "Hunter" is a good hand at intelligence... Hearing Mr. Hunter's methodical narration, Joyce couldn't help but sigh in his heart:

"A small pirate ship, it has to be so complicated, and there are checks and balances!"

"The captain and the second mate obviously have a deeper friendship, but Roy doesn't want to help the two, and deliberately keeps neutral. There is probably only one reason: he dare not kill, or he has scruples, and he is unwilling to target the first mate in the open. Secretly ordered the second officer to be hostile to him..."

"Although pirates can do whatever they want, a captain will never allow his first mate to harbor evil intentions..."

He made a lot of guesses, but quickly overturned them one by one... Before Joyce could figure out the reason, he suddenly heard a knock on the door.

The two looked at each other, and Mr. Hunter asked in a deep voice:

"who?"

The person outside the door replied: "The first mate on board."

Speaking of Cao Cao, Cao Cao will be here... Joyce stepped forward to open the door, and invited this burly man who came to visit rashly into the cabin.

"Are you still used to living here? If you get seasick, I have special medicine here, which is very effective."

In the face of the first officer's warm greetings, Mr. Hunt coldly refused to respond, and asked straightforwardly:

"What do you want us to do?"

The smile on the chief mate's face froze for a second, and he slowly withdrew it, thinking: Why are these two groups of people more difficult to get along with than the other!

He asked frankly: "I want to know where Captain Roy invited you to board the ship and what are you going to do?"

"Aren't you the first mate! Why didn't Captain Roy tell you?"

Joyce asked in a surprised tone, and then he was swept away by Mr. Hunter's stern eyes, and then consciously closed his mouth.

The first mate took the performance of the two into his eyes, and said with a smile: "This little brother asked a very good question."

"It's just that our captain is quite suspicious, and he always likes to inform us of the specific content at the last moment of the operation, but this time I have a feeling of discomfort, so let's find out in advance..."

This first mate is a "warrior" in Sequence Nine of the God of War pathway. The reason why he can become the first mate on this ship is because he is a loyal subordinate brought out by "Vice Admiral Twilight" from Feysac.

"Vice Admiral Twilight" has always distrusted the members who joined the pirate group after becoming famous, so he sent the Extraordinary on his main ship to each subsidiary ship, which not only strengthened the combat effectiveness, but also ensured that he would not dare to betray easily.

However, the chief mate obviously felt the strange atmosphere on the ship recently.

Captain Roy applied to Bayam to purchase new ships and recruit sailors. This behavior seemed normal, but he stayed here for too long... During this time, the second officer's attitude towards him softened, but There was no warning... What's more, the ship did not sail towards the intended location, but chose an unfamiliar channel...

When these factors were loaded together, he came to an astonishing conclusion: Roy wanted to leave, or even betray "Vice Admiral Twilight".

The reason why he is not sure is very simple, because he is still alive...

Mr. Hunter was silent for a long time, did not answer directly, but did not refuse, but asked rhetorically:

"You didn't get an answer from the Siren?"

The mate answered honestly, "He's sleeping."

Go to bed... What a big heart, don't you have any precautions on a strange pirate ship... Joyce couldn't help admiring his mentality.

Mr. Hunt was also stunned for a second, then noticed Joyce's hint, and replied seriously:

"Roy invited us to explore a secret island. According to him, there are many treasures on the island."

Secret islands, treasures... The first officer's mind was running quickly, and then he smiled: "Thank you for letting me know, then I won't bother you two to rest."

He stood up straight, almost touching the wooden boards of the cabin, and turned to leave.

But I heard Joyce ask abruptly: "Is there an 'entertainment method' on board? You know, I haven't played for a few days, and my hands are a little itchy..."

The first mate stopped in his tracks, suppressing the surprise in his heart, and said with a hearty smile:

"Of course, little brother, let's go play two together?"

"Okay." Joyce stood up happily.

The two hit it off right away, but each had their own thoughts. They chatted happily and walked into the sailors' gathering area.

The ship has started sailing normally, and most of the sailors have been idle, chatting together, one talking about how much money he won at the Gold Coin Casino, and the other bragging about finding a good deal at the Red Theater...

The first mate led Joyce and introduced to everyone:

"This is Bruce. He wants to gamble with some brothers. Do you want to have a discussion?"

"Come on! Who is afraid of whom!"

"Let me see if I don't win all his underwear!"

…………

The sailors were eager to try, and the first officer turned his head and explained: "Pirates are like this. They stay at sea for a long time and have no means of entertainment. They will always develop this kind of character."

Joyce said curiously, "I think you are very polite."

"That's because I just left the land, and I can still restrain myself..." The first mate smiled, and then asked, "Playing dice or playing cards?"

"Dice, it's simple and convenient."

Joyce "excited" joined the "battlefield".
