The Red Age of Sword and Magic

Chapter 443 The old man and the sea
"How much is a bottle of wine? I'm in for a treat."

"Sir, ten gold coins, the money should be paid first."

"Why is it so expensive?"

It's not like Randy hasn't seen expensive wine before.At the ghost restaurant in Edinburgh, Xiao Guizi bought a drink and spent more than 30 pounds, worth more than 70 gold coins.

But it was a world-renowned wine, and the standard of the tavern was much higher.

This tavern didn't even have a signboard, and it was dark inside. I didn't expect the wine to be so expensive.

"You are not a native of the Dark Federation, are you? We issued a prohibition on alcohol a year ago.

This is Miami, where casinos are allowed and the management of alcohol is looser.If you go to another state, there is nowhere to buy it for how much money you spend. "

"Is the Dark Federation short of food?"

"We have a surplus of food, and the land is planted every year."

"Then why the alcohol ban?"

"Women hate drunk men. Now that the Su Federation has given women the right to vote, the women on the Dark Continent are becoming restless."

The men in the tavern scolded Su's Federation together, but no one scolded the woman who made them unable to drink.

Coco chuckled, "Randy, I don't care how much you drink."

Well, Coco has learned to drink since she was a child, but Coco can drink more than Randy.

The old alcoholic held on to the ten-gold-coin bottle of good wine as he wished, and watched Randy approach him, lowering his voice.

"A year ago, I was next to the big swamp and saw a ghost holding a piece of black crystal. It was probably a god-level crystal, and it was swallowed by a mud monster."

"Where is the Great Swamp?"

Randy didn't laugh at the other party just because the other party talked about ghosts. Since the original plane became a high-magic plane, there have been many strange things.

Since it is a "god-level" thing, it is normal for the related things to be a little strange.

The bartender sneered, "You have been deceived by the drunkard, he has told several people about the Great Swamp.

The Great Swamp is 160 kilometers long and [-] kilometers wide. Where can I find the legendary mud monster?We locals have never heard of it anyway.

You have to look for it slowly, and you will probably fall into the mouth of the crocodile. "

"Old man, can you take us to that place? We'll give you money."

"This is the second request. This request is not just about giving money."

"What do you want?"

"Anyone who wants to find a god-level crystal is capable. I know such a secret. I must find someone capable to avenge me before I can lead you there."

"Where is your enemy? Who bullied you? If it's against the law, we can't do it."

"My enemy is a great white shark, haha, are you afraid?"

"Warcraft? Then we are not afraid." Randy patted the big sword on his back.

If Xiaomei is here, I will be even less afraid. Even if Xiaomei is not here, we can fly. If we can’t fight, we can step on the flying sword and escape. Can you chase sharks to the sky?

"Stupid, there is no need to fight with a shark to clean it up.

That kind of stupid guy can be caught with a hook, but unfortunately I am old and my physique is not good, otherwise I would have cleaned it myself. "

"But where can we find that great white shark, I think all sharks look the same."

"You come with me."

The old drunkard tucked the bottle into his arms and walked out of the tavern unsteadily.

When he came to the beach, the old drunkard got into a small boat, "Come on, if you are not afraid of sharks, come with me."

The old man started the boat, braved the wind and waves, and advanced rapidly along the coastline.

"Old man, are we going to take this boat to clean up the sharks?"

Coco was very excited. It was a pity that he didn’t get some sunshine in Miami. Now he finally accepted the commission with Randy and ran out for an adventure. It was so much fun.

"It's back to my home, I only have shark fishing guys in my home.

You are very lucky to be here. I just came to Miami when I ran out of alcohol. The last time I came was half a year ago. "

"Do you know that shark?"

"Of course, that guy has one of my hooks on his back. I almost caught him last time."

"How did it offend you?"

"You will know when you come to my house."

The boat drove for more than an hour at a stretch, estimated to have run more than 100 miles, and finally docked.

The three came to a cabin by the sea.The old man led the two of them into the house, pointed to a big fish skeleton hanging on the wall, "Look, this is why I became enmity with that shark."

Randy thought that the old man's family members were killed by sharks, so he didn't dare to inquire about it in detail.

Seeing the fish bones on the wall, "What is this?"

"It was the best catch of my life - being eaten by a pack of sharks led by that shark.

I'm the best fisherman around here and I've vowed to catch a big fish before I retire.

I was unlucky at the time and went 84 days at sea without catching a single fish.

In the five days of No.80, I finally caught this big marlin which is more than five meters long and weighs a lot.

This will be the honor of my life as a fisherman.

As a result, I was targeted by a school of sharks, and I fought with the sharks for three days and three nights, killing all the other sharks, only the biggest one ran away.

But my catch was also eaten up by sharks.That great white shark ruined my honor and got away, I've been chasing him.

But it escaped with its life several times.Later, when I was old and couldn't catch big fish, that guy actually ran over to show off to me again.

It is my strongest desire to kill that great white shark. If you help me kill him, I will definitely lead you to find that crystal. "

"Is the shark in this sea? How to find it?"

"Look, I've loved looking at the sea all my life, and I can never get tired of watching it.

The rock over there is where I often go to take a nap.Recently that great white shark has been wandering around the beach, challenging me.

You'll catch it as long as you keep fishing there.

Here, this is a special fishing tackle for catching big fish. I am old and have no strength, so I can't catch it anymore. I will lend it to you.

By the way, if you fish for sharks, you have to use live mackerel as bait. I have several buckets here, um—one gold coin for each bucket. "

Seeing the old man's secretive look, Randy didn't mind. He collected the fishing gear, gave the old man two gold coins, and left with two large buckets.

Two barrels of live fish are certainly not worth two gold coins.

However, the old man's sense of honor for his profession, at such an advanced age, and his mentality of persistently fighting sharks just to win his breath, made Randy admire him very much, so Randy was willing to help the old man.

"Don't hurry, you have to go through the swamp to get to that rock, only I know where to step on it—wow!"

The girl waved her hand, and unexpectedly summoned a unicorn.

The girl took the fish from the man's hand, such a weak girl, with such a big two buckets, carried it lightly in her hand, and stepped onto the unicorn.

The unicorn suddenly grew a pair of wings, flapped twice, and reached the rock.

The burly man unexpectedly drew out a sword, stepped on it and flew over.
