Pirate System
Chapter 480: There is no good wine (Part 2)
Georgetina frowned, showing her signature worried expression, and nodded: "Yes, Commander Cook, Romon is a very important combat force. He has always been a brave and capable soldier, I really don't I thought he would run away." She also called the commander Alexandra by her surname. Although she was unfamiliar, she seemed solemn.
"This is in line with the saying, time passes and people's hearts are revealed, and a person's quality can only be seen at critical moments. Who would have thought that the famous Luohua Liushui. Luo Meng would turn out to be a coward who is greedy for life and afraid of death. I sincerely hope, The other two team members from your country can be brave and don't do things that disappoint people." Alexandra said and looked at Tang Ke and Solu, especially looking at Tang Ke twice.
Tang Ke chuckled lightly, patted the soul-capturing knife hanging on his waist, and said lightly: "Commander, there is no need to doubt my courage. My past achievements have proven this for me."
Solu also immediately expressed his position, spreading his hands and saying: "I use money to do things. If I run away from the battle, the promised reward will be gone, so I will not run away. If I really run away, it must be because someone else gave me money." I offered a higher price and hired me to escape.”
While speaking, Alexandra had already led two of her team members to the side of the Greenland Empire people and stood a few meters apart. He nodded and said: "If it is true as you two said, that would be great. However, even if you have the courage to risk your life, it is still not enough. You must find another person to replace Romon and re-form the five Form a team so that people can feel at ease.”
Tang Ke and Solu were each more rude than the other. They didn't get up at all. They were still sitting where they were, eating and drinking whenever they wanted. The Greenland Empire. Only Georgetina and her daughter were entertaining the Dragon Tooth Kingdom and others. Georgetina said: "According to Commander Cook's opinion, who do you think is more suitable to replace Romon?"
"I know quite clearly about the strong men in your navy. According to my estimation, there is only one person who is the most suitable. Her strength is comparable to that of Romon. And she has experienced hundreds of battles. She will definitely be able to take charge and live up to expectations." Alexandra said, turning her beast-like head and looking at Emily opposite, the meaning was self-evident.
When Georgetina saw this, her expression suddenly changed. He said flatly: "No! Emily is an indispensable officer in the navy. She will never be allowed to make mistakes. No matter who you choose to enter the Fountain of Death, you can, but she cannot."
"Don't be too excited. If you don't agree with Colonel Emily's involvement in danger, you can recommend other candidates. If the person you recommend is more suitable than Colonel Emily, I will agree." Alexandra Shen Said loudly.
"The Greenland Empire is neither too big nor too small. How difficult is it to find a suitable candidate? I can come up with a series of candidates just thinking about it." Georgetina gritted her teeth.
At this moment, Emily, the client next to her, stood up and reached out to hold her mother's shoulders. He stepped forward and said, "Commander,
I feel that what Commander Cook said is reasonable. Although there are many generals in our army, I am the most suitable candidate. If you choose someone who is too weak to enter the Fountain of Death, not only will they lose their lives, but it will also have no effect. If you choose someone who is too strong to go, the empire cannot afford the corresponding risks. Only my strength is just right. In that case, let me take the place of Romon who escaped. "
"I said, no!" Georgetina's reaction became more intense. Because the person standing in front of her was not a colonel, but her daughter, whom she regarded as the apple of her eye. "Anyone can go, but you can't go."
"Commander, I don't want to go either. But for everyone, there is a responsibility that cannot be shied away from. Now the responsibility is my turn. I have no choice but to face it." Emily stared at her mother with concern. His eyes slowed down, and he said word by word, "We are at war with the enemy. The outcome of the war will determine the life and death of millions of people. If this fountain of death falls into the hands of the enemy, the consequences will be disastrous." .So I can’t back down, otherwise I will blame myself so much that I can’t sleep.”
"As the commander, I know the seriousness of the situation better than you, but this responsibility does not have to be shouldered by you. Others can also shoulder it, for example..." Georgetina named three candidates in succession, But the more she spoke, the lower her voice became. Asking herself, even she knew that these people were indeed not as suitable as Emily, and they all had more or less shortcomings.
"Okay, Commander, just let me go. I will do better than the three people you mentioned, and I promise that I will come back alive." Emily raised her hand and stroked her mother's Her face was still as pink as before and she said, "I will never let you become a mother without a daughter."
After hearing this assurance, Georgetina relaxed slightly, but she was still unwilling to let her daughter run away and take risks.
Alexandra added fuel to the fire in a timely manner and tried his best to mediate the matter. The two team members he brought also said they would try their best to protect Emily.
Under everyone's persuasion, Georgetina had no choice but to nod and agree to the matter.
Tang Ke raised his hand, patted it dryly a few times, stood up and toasted to the mother and daughter present: "The bravery of these two ladies is not weaker than that of men. It is really awe-inspiring. Let me work for this bravery." One cup.”
"I also think I should toast you two." Alexandra nodded and picked up a half-full wine glass from the table.
Everyone present simply took a glass of wine, even No. 5, who was a robot. Although it is lifeless, it has a container for storing liquid in its mouth, and it can take a few sips of wine to show off. Everyone clinked their glasses and downed the drink to show their respect for Emily's feat.
After drinking, everyone found a seat and sat down according to their status, and continued to talk about bravely entering the Fountain of Death.
"According to relatively reliable records left over from past history, the situation in the Fountain of Death is very different each time, and various dangerous things may appear. There seems to be another space in the Fountain of Death, and this space uses some kind of The mysterious power has stored some dangerous things inside. Whenever the Fountain of Death appears, this space will randomly combine the dangerous things inside to form a maze. Of course, this is just a speculation, there is no way People can confirm it." Georgetina placed a thick pile of information on the table, including a large amount of written information and several imaginary pictures.
On those imaginary pictures. There are impressively painted images of demons, demons and various dangerous creatures. Although the paintings are not very realistic, they still give people a sense of oppression.
Tang Ke casually picked up the piece of paper with the devil on it and looked into the eyes of the devil in the painting. He had many dealings with this creature from the abyss. It's quite familiar.
Georgetina glanced around and continued: "In the records of the Fountain of Death, dark creatures appear very frequently, so before entering the Fountain of Death, you must be fully prepared for this aspect. Cook and I The commander originally wanted to add a high-level priest to your team, but the priest's combat ability is too low. If you enter the dragon's den like the Fountain of Death, it will probably hinder you, so it was later cancelled. This plan. In order to make up for this shortcoming, we will provide a few of you with the most effective magic repelling stones, crosses and holy water before you set off. With these treasures, you can easily deal with it even if there is no priest around. Attack by those dark creatures.”
"I have one thing to ask." Tang Ke suddenly raised his hand.
"You can ask any questions you have." Georgetina said.
"Does the holy water provided by your country have strawberry flavor?" Tang Ke asked an unprecedented question.
Georgetina was stunned at first. After realizing it, he said angrily: "I'm sorry, all the holy water in the world has the same taste, and it will never taste too good. If you find it difficult to swallow, you can bring two strawberries with you and put it in."
"I'm just asking casually. If not, forget it. You can continue. I'm all ears." Tang Ke shrugged.
Georgetina glared at Tonk. Continuing with what he said just now, he continued to explain the battle plan. She talked about some dangers that had appeared in the history of the Fountain of Death, and told the five team members how to deal with them. If the Fountain of Death this time is the same as the Fountain of Death in the past, with the strength of these five people, there is still a high hope that they can pass. I'm just afraid that the Fountain of Death will play new tricks this time, create scenes that have never been seen before, and create monsters that have never been seen before. In this case, there will be many variables.
She spoke for nearly an hour before she finished speaking. By this time, the sun had moved and began to set toward the west. The sunlight has become much lighter, and the sea has lost its brilliance just now.
After everything was said about the Fountain of Death, Georgetina took out a new bottle of wine and poured a glass for each of the five people, but did not pour wine for No. 5 and Emily.
Fives think with that simple mind. Feeling that it was unfair that he did not have wine, he interjected: "Beautiful female commander, although I am just a tin man and cannot taste the sweetness of fine wine, I still hope that you can treat everyone equally and give me a glass of wine to drink."
"No. 5, this is really not a good wine, so I didn't give it to you to drink. What if you drink it and it makes you rusty?" Georgetina said thoughtfully.
"Why isn't this good wine?"
"Wine mixed with poison cannot be considered good wine." Georgetina shook the wine bottle in her hand, and the wine inside showed a scarlet color, just like human blood. The expressions of the three people who were assigned to the poisonous wine changed more or less when they saw this.
"These people are all members of a five-man team. Why would you give them poisoned wine?" No. 5 was even more confused.
"Just because they are members of the Five, I have to give them poisonous wine."
"I don't understand." No. 5 shook his head, and his neck made a sound of metal turning.
The robot couldn't figure it out, but Tang Ke figured it out. He helped explain: "This is actually very simple. The great alliance of the two countries is not trustworthy about a few of us. They are afraid that we will suddenly change our minds after getting the Fountain of Death. The Fountain of Death To fill their own pockets, or to give it to other forces in exchange for rewards, so each of us was given a glass of poisonous wine and asked to drink it. This poisonous wine must be a chronic poisonous wine. It will take some time before the onset of the poisonous wine. How many of us can we do? If you don't want to be poisoned to death, after you get the Fountain of Death, you have to bring it back obediently, and then exchange it for the antidote and take it. I don't know if I am right, Lady Commander?"
"You are so smart and your guess is absolutely correct. Only if you drink the deadly poisonous wine can the two alliances be completely at ease with you." Georgetina admitted frankly.
"It seems that none of the three of us can escape this poisonous wine." Tang Ke said with a bitter smile.
"Don't worry, as long as you can come back, even if you fail to bring back the Fountain of Death, I will give you the antidote. This is just a preventive measure, as long as you don't have any other intentions. Betray the alliance between the two countries, the two countries The Alliance will never harm you. For this, I can swear on my personality."
"Your personality is really valuable." Tang Ke was the first to grab the poisoned wine, put it under his nostrils and smelled it. He is not afraid of drinking any poisonous wine, because there are six resurrection springs in his body. It can eliminate hundreds of poisons, and it will be fine even if you drink it. "This wine is red wine. I can recognize it, but I can't guess what kind of poison is mixed in it." He said curiously.
"I'm sorry, this will be kept secret for the time being. But I can promise you that I will tell you this secret after you come back with the Fountain of Death." Georgetina pretended. This is to prevent a few people from knowing in advance what kind of poison it is and then finding ways to detoxify it on their own.
"It's a secret again. I hate secrets." Tang Ke chuckled and used an investigation technique on the wine in his hand. The origin of the poison was revealed.
Talomati:
Level: None.
Type: Poison.
Description: The poison named after the sixth demon is a mixture of various poisonous weeds. It has the characteristics of strong toxicity, small taste, and slow effect.
Effect: It will take effect slowly after five days of drinking. The body of the poisoned person will slowly lose water and gradually wither until death.
How to use: Mix it into liquid or food, and pour it directly into other people's stomachs.
The name of this poison is quite nice. However, the effect is very cruel, and it can actually cause a living person to slowly wither and die like a plant.
Tang Ke clicked his tongue, he didn't want to try this taste, but fortunately this kind of poison couldn't stop him. Since the poison has no effect on him, he doesn't have to worry about being restricted by the alliance between the two countries and can continue to act according to his plan.
He will take action when it's time to take action. Once he has the opportunity, he will definitely take the Fountain of Death as his own by any means necessary.
"I hope the poison didn't ruin the taste of this red wine." Tang Ke didn't have any worries. He raised his glass and drank it calmly. It's like being loyal to the Greenland Empire and learning from heaven and earth, and it's like this is not poisonous wine at all, but a glass of ordinary red wine.
The poisonous wine enters the stomach, except for the aroma of the wine. It didn't bring any more feelings. At most, it just made my stomach a little hotter.
"Ding! You drank the poisonous wine and entered a state of poisoning."
The system prompt sounded in time, giving a warning.
Tang Ke remained calm and immediately activated the six resurrection springs in his abdomen, using this artifact-level treasure to wash away the poison in his body. It felt like washing the dishes with clean water, and the dirty things were quickly disposed of. Clean.
"Ding! You relied on the resurrection spring in your body to relieve your poisoned state."
It only took more than a minute to complete the process. I don't know whether to praise the resurrection fountain for being too powerful or to belittle the poison "Talomati" for being too weak.
Even Georgetina was surprised that Tang Ke drank the poisoned wine so happily. In the eyes of outsiders, a pirate leader like Tang Ke, who was careless, licentious, and full of evil, would never serve the empire wholeheartedly.
"It's quite sweet." Tang Ke smacked his lips nonchalantly.
Georgetina stared at Tangk for a long time, then came to her senses and praised: "Tangk has made a good start. If the other two have no objections, please drink the poisonous wine."
Sea Dragon Knight Ada is from the Navy of the Dragon Fang Kingdom. Since he is here, he certainly deserves this glass of poisonous wine. He grabbed one of the poisonous wines and drank it cleanly.
Solu is a killer who is very resistant to poisoned wine and is the only one to protest. He argued with Georgetina for a while, and then the two sides reached a compromise. The Greenland Empire paid him an additional fifty thousand gold coins as compensation for drinking the poisoned wine, and he reluctantly drank the poisoned wine.
Except for No. 5, who was immune to the poisoned wine, three of the five team members drank the poisoned wine, except Emily. With her special status, it was understandable even if she received some preferential treatment. No one said anything, not even Alexandra had any objections.
Tang Ke grabbed the poisoned wine, poured a glass of wine into an empty wine glass, and joked at Emily: "Female warrior, why don't you have a drink? I think this poisoned wine tastes pretty good."
"I appreciate your kindness, but let's forget it. I'm afraid the poisonous wine will hurt my stomach." Emily rolled her eyes at Tangk, not even bothering to look at the poisonous wine.
After drinking the poisoned wine, today's small meeting was finally settled. Georgetina acted as the host and invited everyone to have a sumptuous meal in the living room. Then she took the five team members to the same residence to rest, and talked about The five people issued a restraining order, prohibiting the five people from wandering around before entering the Fountain of Death.
Capturing the Fountain of Death was an extremely urgent matter. The five-person team only rested for one night and ventured out the next day.
The two alliances prepared a compact first-order magic ship for these five people, named "Strong Shield". All the weapons on the ship were unloaded and replaced with defensive armor and protective formations. This ship had only one responsibility, and that was to successfully bring the five people to the Fountain of Death. They did not expect this ship to be able to help more. This ship was also equipped with a moderate number of crew members. These people were basically sent to die, and the alliance between the two countries gave them high pensions.
Tang Ke stood at the bow of the ship with his hands in his trouser pockets, staring at the black vortex getting closer and closer, his heartbeat gradually speeding up. (To be continued.
