Chapter 1003 - Information Bank
Silence.
The pirates all turned silent the moment old Crow Face stepped forward.
The only sounds that could be heard were those from nature.
The Pirates all observed, not wanting to miss a single thing.
Crow Face stood magnetically before the kneeling Josh, gripped his jaws firmly and tilted his mud-coated face upwards, wanting the rain to wash away the mud.
And after he could see 60% of his appearance, Old Crow let go of his chin and coldly glanced at him, emitting a very murderous aura.
"Speak. Who are you? Where are you from? Why do you want the boy? And where are you taking him to?"
Josh, who was breathing heavily with his head tilted downwards, suddenly raised his head hatefully before spitting out the excess fluids in his mouth.
This reaction...
Hahahahahha.
As expected, he was right.
This assassin understood basic Pyno.
He then tried asking the same questions with more words involved, which seemed to confuse the assassin.
In fact, the guy just closed his eyes and couldn’t be bothered what was asked.
Seeing his actions, everyone couldn’t help praising Old Crow Face in their hearts.
When he had explained it earlier on, everyone was astonished by how short a time Old Crow had used to piece everything together.
Everything gave them yet another understanding of how intelligent Old Crow was.
No wonder he was sometimes called ’Mr. Sure’ within the crew.
Why? Because he was always sure.
As far as they knew, things typically went just as he calculated.
Rarely did it ever go wrong.
And even within those times, it wasn’t that his calculations were wrong, but that other factors changed things... Like a rat switching out their plans or alerting the enemy.
Anyway, everyone looked at Old Crow Face as a brain box within the crew.
.
Crow Face, who was watched with appreciation and respect, focused all his energy on Josh.
Good.
At least now, he understood that if he wanted the assassin to understand him, he headed to speak in simple terms.
So he repeated the questions again, just as he did before.
"Who are you? Who do you work for? Why do you want the boy? Where is he going?"
On hearing these questions, Josh raised his head and stared at Crow Face as if he wanted nothing more than to swallow him whole.
Who would’ve known that he would use some references in the book here?
What Eye Of Horus?
Bah!
.
Josh still maintained a hateful gaze as he continued spitting out curses and threats.
"You better let me go now before it’s too late.
The Eyes of Horris see everything in this world.
They are everywhere, even within your measly pirate organization.
As for the boy, he will be taken to Hamunaptra... The city of the Dead.
Hamunaptra is an ancient place that no one knows of.
Hahahahahha.
You all don’t know who you are up against.
You are all doomed! Doomed!
I know you want to kill me, so just do it!"
Everyone looked at Josh coldly, with a high worry on their faces.
In truth, Old Crow Face believed all his words.
Why?
Because experience and facts had proven that in these times of battle, war and death... when people were about to die, they typically threatened and told the truth about matters to give them nightmares to their killers for the rest of their lives.
Since those dying knew of their impending deaths, they still wanted their arrogant murderers to feel their pain.
Many a time, they spoke the truth.
Again, from this guy’s behaviour, he was sure that the guy wasn’t an assassin.
Assassins would take but into poison sacs underneath their tongues if caught.
But this guy didn’t.
Could it be that the Eye of Horus was another God-forsaken Temple?
Well, whatever the case, maybe he would find out soon enough.
Heh.
From the guy’s actions, it showed that he desperately wanted to die.
But how could they let him?
How could they let their information box die?
Impossible.
He must find this Hamunaptra.
This city of the dead.
