Chapter 1856: Chapter 619: The Transia People Commit All Kinds of Evil, Part 3
Faced with his questioning, the half-human sailor helplessly lowered his voice and said:
“Don’t tell the captain it was who said it. I heard that during the last Black Disaster, when Captain Paula was piloting her previous ship, the ‘Battering Ram,’ to Transylvania to transport the wounded, she was kidnapped by unfriendly vampires.
Those nasty vampires forced Captain Paula to use her ship to attack the Wolf People, resulting in the unfortunate crash of the Battering Ram, where Captain Paula barely survived.
Since then, she hasn’t had a good impression of the Transia People.
If it weren’t for her long-term contract with the Hoffman Mining Company, she wouldn’t have brought her second ship here to Transylvania this ti.
She is prejudiced against you, you know? Friendly vampires, Captain Paula is a very stubborn person. She says it’s to protect us from being hard by the barbaric Transia people.
But actually, when unloading the goods that day, I saw the lady Governor with red hair, and she was truly outstanding. Her subordinates were also very friendly, and they had even arranged for us to stay at the best local hotel with waived al costs.
I heard there’s a great casino here for entertainnt as well.
Alas…
There’s no way around it.”
“Huh, I see. Let talk with this Captain Paula, who has been hard by the Transia people and therefore has a shadow. I assure you, tonight you’ll be free to enjoy Crimson Castle and Treasure Bay.
Rember to prepare enough money.
You can play for a long ti. It’s the landlord’s duty from us Transia people.”
Murphy smiled, made a gesture of thanks to the sailor, and then opened the door to the captain’s cabin.
What t his eyes was a luxurious wooden cabinet, filled with all kinds of souvenirs from around the world. At the top, there was a chanical steering wheel hanging there, symbolizing this captain’s rich sailing experience.
Because the airship was quite large, the captain’s cabin was also very spacious, with a corner for resting and a reception office area, and even a small liquor cabinet.
Murphy looked at the nostalgic steam chanical refrigerator on the cabinet, that was the “chanical 800” model he and Triss used back when they relied on each other.
“Hey! Vampire, who allowed you to step into my office? I hate vampires!”
A sharp voice ca from the other side of the captain’s cabin, and Murphy turned to see a half-human female captain in a commanding black captain’s uniform, with a nautical hat but long blue hair, and less than 1.4 ters tall, waving a revolver and shouting:
“State your na! You scoundrel, you didn’t even make an appointnt!”
Upon seeing this half-human, Murphy understood why Captain Paula harbored animosity toward the Transia people. This blue-haired half-human captain’s delicate and cute face was marred by a scar on the side, severely ruining her appearance.
Moreover, her right arm was a silver-gray chanical hand, and at this mont, it was pointing a large-caliber gun barrel at Murphy.
If he guessed right, these two things were likely the “souvenirs” she received the last ti she was in Transylvania.
“My na is Murphy, the local Governor.”
Murphy made a gesture of surrender and said to the half-human before him:
“I’ve co to talk business. To be precise, I have a commission for you and your ship. I will pay double… no, triple the reward, one of which is Transylvania’s compensation for your ‘spiritual damage,’ expressing the remorse for the harm this land caused you many years ago.
But please believe , the rogue vampire who hurt you back then is gone forever.
Even Salockdale has beco a thing of the past.”
“Don’t try to buy with money! Cunning vampire.”
Captain Paula gritted her teeth and cursed:
“No amount of money can bring back my Battering Ram. That was the ship my father left ! It was my dream lover, you scoundrel, it was the best airship in the world, and now I’ve lost it. Lost it forever!
The contract with the Hoffman Company requires to stay here for three months. Of course, I will perform the work you’ve instructed, but that doesn’t an I like Transylvania.
It’s just because I have good professional ethics.
Now, please get off my ship!
At least get out of my office.”
Seeing the half-human so resolute, Murphy could only lant the misdeeds of the Transia people and prepared to turn and leave, but at that mont, the door to the captain’s cabin was pushed open, and the drunken Deputy Carlyle poked his head in, shouting:
“Hey, Paula, why aren’t you here yet? We have to finish the third round… huh! Handso Murphy? What are you doing here, you landlubber?”
“I should ask you that.”
Murphy looked in surprise at Deputy Claire and said:
“What is a pirate doing on soone else’s airship?”
“Uh, Paula is the Blood Fear Fleet’s distributor in Charldo Harbor, you know. I t her a hundred and fifty years ago, and before that, her father was my best half-human friend. Their family made their first fortune helping our Blood Fear Fleet repair ships and build cannons.
Little Paula, after losing her airship in a displeasing accident, was backed by the captain and to make a coback.
Ah, I just rembered, Paula’s airship crashed in Transylvania, no wonder she doesn’t have a good face toward the people here.
Look at the gloom on Handso Murphy’s face, she must have scolded him with her bad temper, right?
Don’t mind it.
Paula’s just like that, bad temper, but she’s actually pretty good, and this tiny one is the most business-savvy and courageous half-human I’ve ever t.
Since you’re here, why not have a drink with us?
Paula!
Give so face, recognize Handso Murphy as a friend. He’s actually pretty good too.”
