Crimson Servant

Chapter 128 Careful Support
John found the face-covering rag doll that the Sea Witch mentioned. It was more like a gesture of holding his head with both arms. John pulled the rope twice, and a secret door opened from the side of the stairs. That door was not included. It was spacious, and John guessed that Raven must have lowered his head the whole time when he passed it.

John came to the Sea Witch's warehouse. The air here was dry, and the mixed smell of the materials was not unpleasant. The well-organized and well-organized reserves proved that the owner here was a meticulous and patient person.

The Sea Witch is not as gloomy and rotten as her dark basement makes her out to be, which is a disguise for self-defense and possibly a sales ploy. In Artemis, a sinister-looking black-hearted witch is undoubtedly more convincing than the apothecary.

"John, this way!" Lillian's energetic movements made John's eyes dazzle. She begged for goods, instigated fights, and listened to the sea witch's love story. Various activities made the warlock's heart feel like it was damp.

Lillian Odiz, on the other hand, was undisturbed. She maintained her active curiosity and sunshine-like enthusiasm. This time, John did not avoid her.

"Ah."

Campfires were not allowed in the warehouse, so Raven had prepared a few thick plush blankets and put them on their bed rolls. After simply nibbling some dry food, Raven closed his eyes and rested, leaving behind a bright-eyed Lillian and a somewhat regretful John.

Without Barnes to attract the female ranger's attention, Vivian's urgent desire to communicate was all vented on John.

She recounted what she had experienced along the way when she was working for the Sea Witch, how she had messed with her and was easily defeated, the prosperous trade she saw in the pirate market, and a symphony orchestra with poor skills, which she felt insulted by. The pirate audience immediately beheaded two of the band members, the two with the best notes being killed.

These desperadoes live a very prosperous life.

"I could go on longer until it obeys."

There were some burn marks on Vivian Ordiz's clothes, but her eyes were sharp and she didn't look tired at all.

The female ranger looked at this majestic little thing and stretched out her hand with some excitement.

"Can I touch it? Your wings, or your tail?"

She failed.

"Ow!"

John chose to turn over and sleep, and released Azames in pseudo-dragon form to guard Lilian.

……

At dawn, Raven and John woke up one after another.

Vivian received an electric shock that made her fingers numb. Vivian rubbed her right hand, and then looked at the dragon thunder biting her. She happened to see the human contempt in Azames's eyes, and Vivian narrowed her eyes.

John thought to himself, still talking perfunctorily to Lillian. He made up his mind not to provide more emotional value to this troublesome woman, but the result seemed to be counterproductive.

With his head clear, John turned to look behind him.

"Come on, little one, the night is still long."

John opened his eyes, and what woke him up was the lightning that returned to his body. Azames awakened his muscles, making John's hair stand on end, and he entered a tense fighting posture.

"I like prey that resists."

The female ranger misunderstood the warlock's silence as a form of support. Lillian seemed to think that John was a good listener. She continued to talk about art topics that only she found interesting, and she wanted to cultivate John into a classical art lover overnight. trend.

"Have you been making trouble all night?" John had the power to restrain Azames when he released it. It could only release an electric current that would not damage the organs at most, but it would last for one night. This woman was more energetic than he imagined.

"What? Is it scared?" Vivian chuckled and raised her fingers provocatively.

"Don't play tricks on my spells, Azames is clamoring in my head to kill you."

Vivian said helplessly: "If you agree to my request for touching, we can get along very well."

"I'll consider it, if necessary." "Really?"

John glanced at her, "Azames' request."

Vivian Ordiz covered her chest and pretended to be hurt.

"I thought we were already in love yesterday, but you ended up treating me like this, acting as capriciously as a woman."

Sure enough, I must have been dazzled by those stories yesterday to think that this woman was approachable.

John reflected on himself and left the Sea Witch's warehouse.

They came to the center of the stairs, ready to return to the alchemy basement to retrieve their captain. When they reached the door, several people fell silent.

Barnes was hung by a rope at the door, twisting like a bug in mid-air. He greeted him warmly and was in high spirits, even the circles under his eyes had reduced a lot.

"Hey! My lovely crew, come and save your great captain."

"What did you do again?" John said helplessly.

"It's nothing." As Barnes was being taken off by Raven, he didn't feel any shame at all about being tied up. "It's just that my heart is a little shy and responded to me a little more fiercely."

It seems that after Barnes woke up, he failed to control his glib mouth and was hung up by the irritable sea witch.

After getting rid of the rope, Barnes rubbed his wrist, waved his arm, and pushed the wooden door open again.

"Now, go get what we deserve!"

Barnes saw the woman, and the sea witch was already prepared, arms crossed, waiting for Barnes's antics.

"My dear~ My crew and I are about to embark on a great adventure. The place is very dangerous. If you can fund some excellent magical potions, we will definitely engrave your name on our mast. I will do it every day They all kiss once."

The sea witch showed a twisted smile.

"So, what's my name? Barnes."

"Um...can you give me a hint? My dear."

"Huh~" the sea witch sighed and waved to Barnes, who was still giggling, "Come here and I'll tell you quietly."

Barnes walked over and was punched in the abdomen, causing Barnes to fall.

The sea witch took out a potion belt from the cupboard and threw it to John.

"This is the reward for your entrustment. The white one is a decoction of underwater breathing. Hold it in your mouth and chew it. Do not swallow it. Spit it out within three minutes. If it exceeds three minutes, or you swallow it, you will grow gills. Or extra lobes.”

"My decoctions have some unavoidable side effects, and they are also much more powerful than the potions of the same name on the market. This is the effect enhanced by black magic."

"The red treatment medicine is applied externally. When it works, your skin will develop shell-shaped pustules, but it doesn't matter, it's just a little itchy."

"The green one is an invisible medicine. It is taken orally. Do not take a deep breath while it is taking effect, otherwise you will get a week-long seafood phobia."

"As for the black one..."

"Barnes knows how to use black. Black material is very precious, so the quantity is the minimum. You'd better use it in the right place."
