Chapter 293 Something Is Lost
"I..., we promise to help the captain of this ship get a position in the future internal selection of the Linland family."
Viscount Landu originally intended to say this, but considering the situation that his group of people had little money and power, he changed "get a position" to "lobbying for votes."
Looking around the room, the boatswain said teasingly: "More than that?"
Hearing this, Viscount Landu's face froze, and continued: "During the voyage, he can choose the noble girl he likes to spend the night with."
As soon as he finished speaking, Viscount Landu saw the boatswain looking at him with contempt.
He wanted to defend himself, after all, these noble children were not good birds, but when he thought about the current situation of the ship, he didn't care so much about this matter.
"Mr. Boatswain, what should we do now? Continue sailing or return?"
Wipe the cold sweat from his forehead, Landu saw that the boatswain did not leave, so he asked carefully.
He now felt a thousand regrets in his heart, regretting that he had accepted this task just to make things difficult for Joanna.
If he hadn't accepted that task, he would still be holding a banquet in his own manor, instead of hiding in this room, worrying about whether he could see the sun tomorrow.
"Return! Of course we have to return! If we don't return, will you command the ship to cross the Thunder Sea? If I and others had this ability, we would have gone out to do it alone!"
After saying this, the boatswain turned and left.
...
Two days before the Spirit King Card Competition, in the afternoon, a steamship suspected to be affected by the storm was suddenly found in the port of Storm Bay.
Although the appearance of the ship was still intact, the mast had been broken, and the whole ship was crooked, as if it would soon sink.
Because the steamship had the family emblem of the Linland family, the port guards immediately notified the Linland family.
When the steamship arrived at the port, no one noticed that there were six more people and an item in an apartment less than 500 feet away from the port.
"Boss, what should we do next?"
Through the tree jump technique and activated wooden planks of the alien dragon pattern, the assassins of the Takanaan family returned to their previous hiding place.
They disguised the captain's death as a defection, and successfully used the steamship's return to divert attention and return here.
The only remaining flaw is that the activated wooden plank was left in that room, and the Medan family of the dragon pattern family holds the detection dragon pattern, and almost everyone is a good detective and investigator.
In addition, the wizard who is proficient in prophecy spells should be able to lock them.
"Go! Don't stay! Go to Dalkart, which is the port opened by the people of the Sauron continent in Xen'drik. We can find someone from there to take us back to Khorvaire."
Although according to the current conditions, most people should think that the captain absconded with the money, but as a senior member of the Takanaan family, he never imagined his opponent as a baboon with a low IQ.
The other Takanaan assassins looked at each other, and then followed the captain's instructions and began to prepare to leave.
After they were almost done packing, the six people left the room.
"Ouch! Watch your way!"
As soon as he went out, the Tak'anan assassin almost bumped into two people.
The wanderer in the team subconsciously wanted to take action and kill the two guys who saw their true faces, but the leading assassin quickly stopped him with his eyes.
"Sorry, we are in a hurry to leave."
They surrendered to the two elves opposite, and the six people walked away quickly from the corridor.
The female among the two elves was about to continue walking, but found that her companion looked back at the direction where the six people disappeared, as if thinking about something.
"Tum? What's wrong?"
The two elves in the corridor were Kassa and Tum, who were looking for someone who was going to sell the house in Storm Bay.
Hearing Kassa's question, Tum looked puzzled.
"The Spirit King Competition is coming soon, and those people are dressed like they are going on a long journey... so I feel a little strange."
Of course, in addition to this, Tum also felt the remaining breath of death on the six people, which represented that they had killed intelligent life in the past few days.
But considering that these people were not drow, Tum did not go into the matter in the principle of less trouble than more trouble.
"Do you think everyone is addicted to the spirit card game like you? Maybe it is a team carrying out some secret mission. When you are out, it is better to stay out of things that have nothing to do with us!"
After that, Kasha turned back and pulled Tum to continue looking for apartments with words of sale or lease posted on the door.
At the same time, the port area has gradually become lively.
Although the steamship encountered a storm halfway, it finally returned to Storm Bay intact.
The sailors talked about their experiences of this voyage, and the weird situation made the half-elf of the Linland family frown.
"You mean, that guy might have absconded with the money? At this time when he might be selected as the family consul?"
When the sailors talked about the possibility that the captain of the steamship absconded with the money, the half-elf Linland, whose temper was as stormy as the storm, had a faint flash of lightning in his eyes.
He didn't believe that someone who could potentially become the family consul would betray the family for a small amount of money.
Just as he was about to arrest the sailors for interrogation, a member of the Feoran family, one of the Shadow Dragonmark families that rarely appeared in public, emerged from stealth mode.
Shadow Dragonmark is composed of two main families, one is the Feoran family led by Avina Alolansi D. Feoran, and the other is the Solani family led by Elal D. Solani.
The two sides broke up at the end of the Final War. The former controlled most of the original territory of Shadow Dragonmark, while the latter lived in the capital of the Lazar Federation, Imperial Port.
As soon as she appeared, the calm female elf asked in a singer-like voice: "Are the goods we gave you still there?"
Hearing this question, Linland Half-Elf, who was originally a little angry, suddenly changed his face.
The atmosphere around him suddenly became a little dull, and several other members of the Dragonmark family who were watching the show in the crowd couldn't help but stand up.
Feeling this strange atmosphere, the sailors were a little bit at a loss, but the boatswain had already taken out the dimensional bag from the warehouse.
Hearing the elf of the Fiolan family asking this, he hurriedly handed the things over.
After taking the dimensional bag, the female elf said directly before opening it: "Someone has opened it."
Then, as if to confirm what she said, she opened the dimensional bag and poured out everything inside.
Most of the items were antiques that looked a bit old, but the people who detected the dragon pattern family quickly identified that these were fakes and were used to divert attention.
But the stone tablet that recorded the original method of making dragon pattern magic tools that they really cared about was gone.
