Chapter 330：

On the ocean to the west of Aldo Kingdom, a merchant ship is slowly sailing towards the largest port in the kingdom—Westport.

This merchant ship is a galley with a huge hull, with 20 long wooden paddles protruding from each side, and it flips up and down in the sea in unison under the command of the drum.

There were quite a few people on the deck, watching the surrounding sea vigilantly. Judging from their eyes, they were soldiers rather than merchant mariners.

On the high **** at the stern, there are two people holding on to the railing, holding a glass of beer in each hand, looking at the land that appears on the horizon from afar.

"It's a good day today, Captain Edward."

The young man with black hair and earrings smiled and said to the tall middle-aged man beside him.

"Indeed, it's a good temper to inquire about information." The middle-aged man raised his glass to the other party and took a sip of wine. He has a strong figure, but his face is very thin. The beard above his lips stretches out to both sides like a sword. His skin is dark and his face has an indescribable sense of vicissitudes. You can't forget the sharp eyes after just one glance.

No one knows that the great pirate Captain Walker Edward, who once ruled the northwest sea of ​​Aldo and then disappeared mysteriously, will soon appear before the eyes of the world again. However, now he has an additional identity - a member of the Magic Society of the mage organization.

He was ordered by the organization to come and harass the west coast of the kingdom, but he had acquired the habit of being a pirate for many years, so he had to do some research beforehand.

The young man raised his glass to respond to the pirate captain, "I have come to the sea of ​​Aldo again, Mr. Captain, it can be regarded as revisiting the old place, right? Don't you feel particularly emotional?"

The pirate captain named Edward shrugged his shoulders, "I have let you down. My men and I were wandering around the northwest bay before, and we only visited the central waters of the kingdom a few times. If you want to feel any emotion, forget it. Then By the way, although the royal navy is not as good as the Horn Kingdom, it is not a vegetarian. It is not as easy to deal with as the lords in the northwest. Oh, by the way...Nathan, you have been to the Northwest Gulf not long ago? Why did you go? If it is convenient to disclose..."

The young man in front of him is named Nathan. Although he is young, he is a member of the organization that is valued very much. The granary of King Aldo’s capital, you must know that the Kingdom’s army had just recaptured Jingyao, and it was the time when the whole city was under martial law.

Nathan thought for a while, then tilted his head: "There is nothing that cannot be revealed to you, Maltz Kent, do you know?"

Walker Edward smiled: "The Earl of Kent? That's a tough master, ambitious, cunning and cruel, but that's what happened to the heads of their family. Why, did he provoke us?"

"Hey, not only did he not offend us, he also wanted to join the Secret Law Association. It was Master Barnett who contacted him in the past and planned to make him our peripheral force."

"He is not a good stubble."

"It's because it's not good that it can be used by us. Isn't Giles like that?"

"That's true. That's what you used to do? Did it go well?"

Nathan shrugged his shoulders and curled his lips: "It's gone."

Edward was a little surprised, there are still things that cannot be handled with the power of the secret society, and the other party also intends to join?

Seeing the pirate captain's expression, Nathan explained to him: "Originally, according to Master Barnett's plan, let him sit on the Northwest Duke's seat first, then clean up the disobedient thorns, and support him as the second Grand Duke Greedy Wolf, unexpectedly there will be zero mistakes in the middle."

"What went wrong?"

"Master Barnett didn't know what to do halfway, Maltz Kent did it himself before he came back, and turned himself into a target of public criticism, what a fool who doesn't know the thickness of the highlands, and doesn't think about what he is in the Northwest Bay reputation."

"Then?"

"Then the Northwest Gulf joined forces with his old feuding lords to fight him. Heh, his own army was useless, and the duke was beaten to the door before his seat was warm. After that, people were in the Lying in a coffin."

Speaking of this, Nathan grinned at the corner of his mouth and said slowly, "I did it."

Edward asked inexplicably, "Why? Was it silenced in order not to leak information about the organization?"

"There is a reason for this. What's the use of keeping such a waste? But there is another layer. This guy dares to threaten us to provide assistance to him. Hmph, if an unfamiliar dog dares to bark at its owner, it should be thrown into the pot."

Edward continued to ask: "Where is Master Barnett?"

Nathan shook his head: "Who knows, this lord has always been missing."

Edward asked a little worriedly: "Is there any accident?"

"Haha." Nathan sneered, "You may not know him well. As a member of the ten-man regiment, Barnett's strength is unfathomable. He can deal with a large-scale army by himself, even a large army He can retreat now. The power of the secular lord can't help him at all. Maltz Kent just now is also the second lord of the Northwest Gulf after the Duke, and he is still under the control of Master Barnett. You I don’t want to worry about it unnecessarily.”

Edward nodded and took a sip of his wine.

Nathan looked up into Edward's eyes, "Get up, how did the captain join the secret society?"

A reminiscence expression appeared on Edward's face, and after a few seconds of silence: "Ten years ago, I got an ancient scroll from a merchant ship. The unbelievable happened before my eyes, and I have been fascinated by it ever since, or...bewitched.”

"It's God's favor. After that, my body actually awakened the potential of casting spells From then on, I tried my best to collect things related to magic, even if it is a taboo in the eyes of the worldly people. But this circle It is so closed that many people regard magic as false talk."

"Efforts have finally paid off. I came into contact with the Secret Law Society, and the door to the magical world was finally opened to me, and there was still standing behind the Secret Law Society...that admirable Highness. After I sincerely dedicated myself After my strength, the organization finally accepted me."

Edward turned and leaned against the railing, looking up at the clear sky, "At that moment...how, for me who was an orphan, it was like returning to my real home in an instant."

Nathan thought about it: "Yeah, when our abilities as mages are awakened, we basically draw a clear line from ordinary people. Even if you don't have this kind of awareness at the beginning, you can slowly experience it day after day. You are different, or... you are not tolerated by the world. Mr. Captain, you are very smart, and you knew to look for your own kind from the beginning, and only when you are both mages can you understand and tolerate each other."

He changed the subject: "But there are also some idiots among our kind who really think that they can integrate into Fan Que, but they don't know the price of their lives once their identities are exposed."

A trace of coldness flashed in Nathan's eyes: "What we have to do is to break their truth and recognize the cruelty of the world."
