Codex Pirates

Chapter 203 Dehydration

"Water..." The clown Bucky struggled and crawled on the ground, shrouded in thick steam, he didn't even know what the weather was like, let alone how long he had been in the steam.

Bucky's head was dizzy, and he could feel that his breathing and pulse were much faster than usual, because he was sweating profusely, he was already a little exhausted, the strange thing was, in this high temperature environment, his skin was become clammy.

Bucky has been adventuring with Roger the Pirate King, and has seen and encountered many strange geographical environments and weathers. He also knows some medical knowledge. Experience told him that he already had dehydration symptoms, and continued in the steam. If he stayed, he would surely die.

But Bucky had already lost the strength to escape. Just as he was desperately waiting for death to come, he was pleasantly surprised to find that all the steam in sight disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye.

For the first time, Bucky discovered that the air can be so cool, and the natural climate is so comfortable.

It's just that Bucky hadn't had time to feel too much about his escape, but found that after the steam like thick fog dissipated, a large number of armed men appeared at both ends of the street.

Edmond looked at the crowd lying all over the street, and raised his eyebrows involuntarily.

Through the endless groans, a thin clerk beside him wiped his cold sweat and reported: "My lord, according to the records in the entry and exit registration, there are currently 27 large and small pirate gangs on the island, with about 3,000 members. Pirates."

Edmund nodded, then waved his hands behind him, and a group of people looked for pirates among the crowd as if they were rummaging through the goods.

Bucky was relieved when he found out that this group of people were only looking for registered pirates, because they were registered in the name of a circus when the Bucky Pirates first landed on the island.

It's just that Bucky soon discovered that someone in that group was holding a thick stack of bounties for pirates in the East China Sea, and was comparing the faces of passers-by.

...

A few hours later, thousands of pirates were densely packed in a square in Baisong Town. These people were all captured from the town by Edmund and other cadres after William controlled the steam to dissipate. , As long as they promise to give them a sip of water, these people are eager to admit their identities, plus mutual identification, basically all the pirates on the island are here.

William's armed men guarded the pirates at the edge of the square with knives and guns.

It’s just that as unruly pirates, they naturally don’t know how to behave themselves. Although these people are still a little weak, they are already dissatisfied with the status quo of being looked at as prisoners. Although their weapons have been put away, as "many people On the side of "the most powerful", they still gradually became agitated.

Initially, the voice was louder, but then some people began to spread to the edge of the square, wanting to leave here.

laugh!

In the corner of the square, a flash of bright swords suddenly bloomed, and a group of pirates who ran to the guards of Baisong Town and scolded them stopped. Immediately afterwards, their heads shot up into the sky, and blood sprayed from the severed head like money. Some pirates who were secretly observing and preparing to follow suit were taken aback, and all took a step back.

The seemingly harmless doll had a slight smile on his face, showing two small canine teeth and a pair of shallow dimples, Aramis walked up. He smiled and glanced at the surrounding pirates, but frightened a group of pirates put your head down.

Aramis flicked the knife still stained with blood, and walked in other directions where the commotion came from. Anyone who caused trouble was mercilessly beheaded by him. With vicious methods, the chaos in the square It subsided quickly.

When Aramis was dealing with the disturbance, in a room in a small building next to the square, there were a total of twenty-seven captains of pirate groups, big and small, standing obediently like elementary school students with their hands tied. The ferocious criminal, who had no master in mind, now had a weak complexion, pale lips, lowered his head, and the expression on his face was panicked and confused.

The room was very quiet. In front of more than 20 pirate captains, Sherlock in a suit stood in front of the window, drinking coffee, calmly watching the commotion in the square downstairs, and softly said in an unclear tone: "Your People don't seem very honest."

A pirate captain raised his head in displeasure, but then he lowered his head again when he saw Edmond standing silently in a corner of the room with his sword in his hand.

"Mr. Sherlock, we have always kept ourselves safe in the town, abided by business principles, and are also customers of your bank. Why did you suddenly arrest us here this time?" a pirate captain argued.

"Stay safe and abide by business principles?" Sherlock turned around and raised his eyebrows, "You?"

"At least in Baisong Town." The pirate captain said confidently.

Sherlock didn't speak for a long time, and suddenly sighed loudly, causing a group of pirate captains to look at him.

"To be honest, I actually don't want to make such a big noise, and invite you captains to come to me in this way," Sherlock sighed, with a look of confiding in his heart, "Most of you have also been in contact with me, and you know that I usually We have always been kind to make money, but this time is different."

"There was a bank robbery in the center of the town last night. Although the robbers failed to grab anything, unfortunately the Consul was there at the time." Sherlock shook his head, "The Consul is very angry, so I am also very angry. The people below him were equally pissed off, so that's how it went."

"The Consul is here?" the pirate captains in the field whispered.

"Is there something wrong with the vault?" A pirate captain asked worriedly, obviously saving a lot of money in the Flash Gold Bank.

"The treasury is fine," Sherlock comforted, "How could those stupid thieves be the opponents of the consul."

"Have you caught the prisoner?" The pirate captain asked impatiently.

"I caught it. It was a group of stupid murlocs who just came out of the great route. They didn't know the situation, so they dared to rob our Flash Gold Bank, but they were solved by the consul alone," Sherlock said.

Hearing this, the pirate captain said hesitantly: "The steam before that..."

"Mr. Consul did it," Sherlock noticed that the faces of the pirate captains showed a hint of fear at the same time, "but Mr. Consul found out that this group of murlocs still have accomplices. As I said, Mr. Consul is very angry. , so directly to block the town is to capture those murloc accomplices as well."

The pirate captains looked at each other, and after a while, one person asked aggrievedly: "Then we were accidentally injured?"

Sherlock smiled.

Seeing this, a pirate captain said dissatisfiedly: "Then why did you bring us all here, hold us like prisoners, and slaughter our companions?"
