Dawn of the Grey Tower

Disappointment Bay, two days before the tsunami, the dock area

"The last batch, the last batch! There are still three empty seats on the old John's boat! Ten blood money for a price! The boat will start at noon!" The sailor roared in his hoarse voice. His eyes swept over the crowd on the pier. The notice of the tsunami came too late, and the expanded misty sea area also made many ships no longer dock. The combination of these two factors is destined for many people. Affordable emergency evacuation. But what about that? No matter whether it is a captain or a sailor, no one will care about the lives of these poor people. Anyway, Frustration Bay never lacks manpower. There are more people in exile from all over the world than the tides brought by the tsunami. In addition, there is also a merchant who specializes in population transactions in Frustration Bay. In this port city, human life is not more precious than the life of a mouse. So when the sailors looked at these people, it was as if they were looking at a group of mice rushing to escape before the sewers were filled with water.

But be careful, these mice who do nothing to survive are very dangerous. They don't care whether they are a human or a cat in front of them. In order to survive, even if the teeth are weak and the claws are short, the rat generation has nothing to lose, so of course it is not afraid. The sailor knew this well, so he firmly grasped the mast behind him, keeping him at a height beyond the crowd. But he was still vigilant all around, and then unexpectedly found a figure who was quietly trying to climb onto the hull.

"Someone wants to take a boat for free! Guys, let him know that there is no free lunch in this world! Send him to the sea to feed fish!" The sailor shouted loudly at the boat, and soon a few crew members found the plot to ignore Guy. They grinned with a harpoon in their hands, and picked the hood of this guy who wanted to sneak into the boat, revealing a childish and frightening face below. The first thing to be sure is that this is a child, and the other thing is that this child should have suffered from a serious disease. His right half of his face has become a purple sauce, and it is covered with bad sores and ulcers. mark. There is even a disgusting pus in the eye socket of the right eye, and it is no wonder that he wants to bring a hood to cover his face.

"It turned out to be a sick chicken." The sailor who took off the child's hood said contemptuously, and when he lifted the harpoon, he would stab it. But another man who looked older than him stopped him. He was the captain of the ship, and he was called John the Toothless. The captain with his beard grinned, revealing a row of gold teeth with good workmanship. He did lose all his teeth in his early seaman career, but John always thought it was a gift from Poseidon. Let him give these New teeth are set aside in advance.

Captain John chewed the succulent palm fruit in his mouth. He glanced at the child predominantly, and then whispered, "Sea plague, oh, this sick chicken can be sold to the witch in peacetime. They will use his Make medicine with your eyes. Do n’t kill him with a harpoon, the disease on his body will be on the edge of the blade, and finally we all have to be buried in the boat! Stupid! Smash him with a paddle, let the fish and shrimp eat his part Corpse. "

Hearing the captain's order, the sailors quickly put down the harpoon and instead used the oar to beat the child on the outside of the hull, striking him down a few times. Moya John didn't even look at the child after he fell into the water. He walked to the stern, looked at the people in the port, and spit the chew in his mouth into them. "Hah, it seems that ten blood money is too much for you poor ghosts? And I can leave here with three empty positions and let you become fish food under the tsunami. However, I am very kind, So I give you a chance. "He looked up and looked at the sun in the sky. Because of the tsunami, the sky was scary and clean." When that thing rises to the highest point, I will accept the two highest bids. Passengers. "

Why do you think the highest bid? Anyone who lives in Lost Bay knows the easiest way to give an answer to this question is to remove other bidders. As the captain's words fell, some people began to move nervously towards the exit of the pier, while others put their hands in their arms or put them on the edge of their boots, watching the people around them with fierce eyes. A fight around the qualification to board the ship is already inevitable. The captain grinned, and his golden teeth reflected the cold colors in the sun. He did n’t offer such a price because of cruelty, but he just wanted to add two more robust crew members to his boat. For people in this impossible city, killing and being killed are not cruel.

Blood flowed into the seawater below along the gap of the board on the pier, staining a large area. It also attracted those carnivorous fish that were originally interested in children ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ gave the former the opportunity to drag his thin body and struggle to climb ashore in the distance. Cursing, screaming, moaning excitedly as a result of the killing, mixed with the cry of the seagulls circling in the sky and the sound of the thirsty fish turning in the sea. Is this sound harsh? Perhaps it is very harsh for people who grow up in areas with clear morals and laws. But for a child who grew up drinking blood from a young age, it is too common. It's usually not worth looking at. What he cared about was that he missed the opportunity to sneak into the ship, and the tsunami was more dangerous than the mad crowd.

what can we do about it? What should be done to make this child, who is infected with sea blast, survive the tsunami? He was thinking desperately, but because of the limited knowledge he knew, the already hungry body could not provide more energy for the brain. This so-called desperately did not work. It was so painful, he looked at his right hand with his left eye, and the skin above it ulcerated and cracked like a fish scale, emitting an unpleasant odor. Maybe it ’s easier to die, but, I hope I can try to eat before I die. I heard that after a person is full, they will sleep soundly, and die, much like sleep.

Suddenly, the captain with gold teeth broke into the child's mind, and the witch would use his right eye to make medicine. So maybe, they are willing to buy their lives at the price of a full meal ... will it? The child bit his lip. Although he was born in a city ruled by witches, he did not actually see a witch. After all, they spent most of their time hiding in the stone fortress. "Goo!" Hungry, urging him, compared to starving to death, the child knew what he should do. Just like everyone else in Disappointment Bay, do whatever you want, regardless of the consequences, live, enjoy, and die in enjoyment!
