Now that the old thing is mentioned again, although I also know that this is just a habitual poisonous tongue of a dark-bellied person, I can't lose in my mouth: "Ah, if you say that, we are on the same starting line now, or, I originally wanted to try it, but because of the 'technical' problem...a (second tone)."

"Forget it, I'm not interested in this kind of evil heretic." Alice curled her lips and then said seriously: "You say, is this mission, or this world still related to him?"

"I don't know." I shook my head, "I think you think so too. Originally in that world, I thought we were going to fight for him and join our power, but after the mission ended, I found that it was not the case. When doing other tasks, I also thought about whether he would be just a coordinate, which was the preparation for us to come to this world. After all, now he is just a mercenary, and he is just a lone mercenary who is still famous in a small country. He has no exaggerated background in his life and no treasures of artifacts. He has no conditions for becoming the "key" unless..."

"Unless he was involved in something big in "accidentally" and was lucky enough to become a straw, but with Seth's character, is this possible?" Alice asked me.

"I think it's impossible." I said firmly.

Indeed, based on our understanding of Seth, this guy is actually a top. When he twitches and moves, what he most yearns for is a peaceful life. In that world, if there were not national hatred or family hatred, or because he had no choice but to have no way toward girls, he would have lived in that small village for the rest of his life.

"Forget it, take one step at a time, really, I've been on this kind of task again." I complained, and then I looked at Alice and asked very seriously: "Hey, you... didn't lose your qualification, right?"

Alice looked at me in confusion and then seemed to have some understanding, and asked me back, "I should be asking this, after all, where are you..."

"Although I have experienced a lot, I still have this confidence." I said with certainty, and then I asked with some guilt, "But do women count?"

"It should...not count..." This guy scratched his face, his eyes wandering a little - could it be that this guy also...

"Oh..." X2

Two sighs that appeared at the same time made us look up in surprise and saw the same surprise on each other's face.

“Hahaha…”

We smiled happily because we suddenly understood each other's feelings, or made the same decision, that is, we must follow him until there is a clear instruction. If the final result is, it would be better. However, we must do our best to eliminate "other people". If not, we must also let him understand the causes and consequences of everything, and...

"Take it—"

“Um…”

An electric shock sounded, and "Sophia" curled up in the cabin shook his whole body, snorted, looked up at me with resentment, and then buried her head and stopped moving. I was not idle and venting her anger, just because she was not honest just now. This guy understood very well, knowing that he had heard some unreliable events, so he would definitely not live long. "Talent" is useless to us, so just rely on his strength.

Strength, what strength? The strength of a demon, but she possessed her can't use anything except some spiritual skills. Unfortunately, these skills are useless to us, so she must let her soul merge into this body as soon as possible, at least to become a demon. Although she may not be able to beat us by then, she is a dead person anyway. Why not struggle for a while if she can struggle?

In addition to watching her prevent her from moving, the most important thing in our mission is to stop her fusion. However, this kind of thing is difficult to stop. After all, now we do not have the conditions to peel off her soul from Sophia's body. If it cannot be peeled off, it means that the fusion is irreversible, so we can only delay it, otherwise it only takes ten minutes at most and the "Demon Sophia" will be born.

"Dangdangdangdang..."

At this moment, a rapid alarm sounded outside, and I immediately came to "Sophia". Alice pulled up the chain under her feet, and the chain was connected to a trap door. In the bottom cabin directly below us was the corpse. Through this temporary trap door, Alice could clearly grasp the situation below.

None of us went out - this is a matter of course. Regardless of whether there is an emergency or not, our first priority is to look forward to "Sophia" and the body below. If there is any situation outside, we will naturally tell us. However, "Sophia" who has always buried her face trembled slightly. After all, for her, any emergencies may be her life-saving straw.

"It's the 'poor ghost' Joseph." Sure enough, Seth's voice sounded outside the porthole.

"The 'poor' Joseph, a famous pirate nearby." Seeing my questioning look, Alice explained, "The reason why he is called 'poor' is not that he is very poor, but that this guy can do anything for money and dares to do anything. In addition, pirates are their job, but after this 'poor' subdued his prey, his first order was to let the prisoners take off their clothes. When he left the prey, nothing would be left except a boat without a sailing anchor and a group of naked people."

"So, there is more than 80% chance that he has been hired. Which pirate dares to steal warships? Or five warships." I said easily.

"That's not necessarily." Alice shook her head, "Joseph also has a thousand people under her command, so it's still easy to gather five ships. Five to five. Although the Golden Knights are the most powerful Knights nearby, they are only on land and on sea... In short, this time it may not be as simple as a hard battle."

"I remember you are still a water magician? I just used that magic, can't it be?" I asked.

"Of course not." Alice gave me a blank look, "Do you think this is on land? Unless you want to swim with them and trigger a tsunami at sea, you will eventually lose control and may even affect both sides of the straits. However... you can still try to summon a whirlpool to sink one or two ships."

As he said that, Alice checked the body below again and was about to walk out of the cabin.

"It's okay, someone is here again. Look at the flag, Hedram Bergst." Seth's voice suddenly sounded again, causing Alice to drop his hand that had already touched the door, and I waited for Alice's explanation again.

"Hedram Bergst, a man who is loved and respected by all coastal residents, hated and feared by all pirates nearby, and loved and hated by all rulers of the surrounding countries." Alice sat down next to the trapdoor and explained to me, "He originally belonged to the Swiss Navy, but because he was dissatisfied with some of the practices of the upper class - in fact, this "certain" practice was tacitly agreed in various countries, that is, supporting pirates who "own their own country" - and he left the army, fought with a group of like-minded companions in the nearby waters.

This guy is a household legend in the nearby area, because it took him less than three years to develop from a small boat into a fleet. Because of his strength, he is of course the target of trying to win over by coastal countries. However, he has long seen the so-called "Tongquan Dahua" and rejected all invitations."

"Can those rulers let him live until now with such uncontrolled power?" I asked strangely.

"Of course it's impossible, so I said this guy is a legend." Alice replied. "About a year ago, the pirates in the surrounding waters suddenly gathered. They set up a very obvious trap to completely eradicate Bergst and his fleet. Who organized such a complete pirate? Isn't it the various countries behind them? But Graham and his group were so powerful that the end result was that less than one-fifth of the pirates survived - including prisoners, and Bergst lost only two ships."

"It's not impossible," I said with a smile, "after all, this is a magical world. I think you can do this if you are well prepared, right?"

"Yes, but I won't be able to move within a month." Alice gave me a blank look again and said angrily.

"But, are they really an independent legion? Is there really no one behind it?" I asked with some disbelief.

"Say no, there is no, there is no, there is no," Alice replied, "Say no, because they do not belong to any force, both openly and secretly, and because the alliance of merchants who were protected by their piracy provided a lot of help, such as helping to sell treasures seized from pirates at reasonable prices, building ships for them at reasonable prices, providing them with supplies at reasonable prices, and renting them a large island as a base."

"That's why they are so detached now." I nodded.

As we were talking, the battle outside had begun. I don’t know why the "poor ghost" was so persistent, and I don’t know what medicine he took wrong. As we saw from the porthole, the pirate ship was desperately leaning towards the ship we were riding on and carrying out a platoon battle.

The reason why he took the wrong medicine was not to say that he still did not retreat when he was at a disadvantage, but to say that they actually gave up their advantages. There is no gunpowder in this world, and the long-range attacks between ships are only catapults, crossbows, rockets and magic. So, what are the advantages of pirates in naval battles? It’s not that the ship-handling skills are good and the long-range attacks are accurate. As for the boarding battle, although the Knights are an army, the ship-handling skills are far from being good, and long-range attacks can only be symbolic, but they are not afraid of deck battles.

But what attracted us more was Seth, because his battle...is strange.
