619.Transians do all kinds of bad things (page 2/2)
This ship is performing special duties. I cannot allow you to board our ship casually and report your identity. Thank you.！
Otherwise I will call someone.
Many vampires have tried to sneak up in the past few days, but we have rejected them all..”
“My name is Murphy, the owner of this land, and also your employer..”
Murphy spread his hands and answered in a very gentle and gentlemanly manner.：
“The Hoffman family has paid rent for three months. I think you should know who you are serving next. As an employer, do I have to inspect the ship when I board it?？”
“Of course not, you are a big shot.”
The crew member curled his lips, opened the door leading to the airship, and pretended to make a "please" gesture and said：
“Please go to the captain's cabin and talk to our captain. She will definitely prepare a sumptuous dinner for you, and maybe even light candles..”
“This is my first time here, shouldn’t you lead the way?？”
Murphy says：
“And I'm very curious, why did you keep taking off after unloading the cargo and unwilling to come back down? Do you know that my people have been discussing for the past few days how arrogant you halflings are and are not even willing to set foot on the soil of Transia?.
Maybe you should give me an explanation.”
“Well”
Murphy's question made the halfling in front of him a little embarrassed..
While leading the way, he took off his sailor's hat and brushed the few hairs left. There was a trace of embarrassment on his face that looked more delicate than a human being, and his surprisingly large eyes turned around. Under Murphy's gaze, the halfling said awkwardly after several seconds.：
“That's because the captain didn't allow us to disembark. In fact, everyone also wanted to go to the vampire city. When we were unloading, some people went to the small stall and bought some local snacks. They tasted really good..
But there is no way.
On this ship, Captain Paula's words are orders. She doesn't allow us to go down, so we can only stay here..”
“Why？”
Murphy followed the crew member through the very clean cabins and decks inside the airship, and saw many idle crew members sitting in the restaurant playing cards..
This airship was almost entirely populated by halflings, with only a few human crew members. Murphy saw many strange devices that were maintained by dedicated personnel. This was probably because they had to deal with machinery, making it difficult for other races to adapt to the working environment here..
Facing his questioning, the halfling crew member helplessly lowered his voice and said:：
“Don't tell the captain that it was me who said it. I heard that it was because during the last black disaster, Captain Paula drove her last ship, the Hammer, to Transia to transport the wounded. Kidnapped by friendly vampires.
Those bad vampires forced Captain Paula to use her ship to attack the Jackals, which resulted in the Hammer crashing and Captain Paula escaping death..
After that, she didn't have a good impression of the Transians..
If she hadn't had a long-term contract with the Hoffman Mining Company, she wouldn't have brought her second ship to Transia this time..
She is biased against you, do you know that? Friendly vampire, Captain Paula is a very stubborn person. She said she wanted to protect us from the barbaric Transians..
But in fact, when I was unloading the goods that day, the red-haired consul lady I met was really outstanding, and the officials under her were also very friendly. They originally arranged for us to stay in the best local hotel and exempted us from meal expenses. Woolen cloth.
I heard there is a great local casino for fun.
well.
There's nothing we can do about it.”
“Phew, I see, then let me have a chat with Captain Paula, who was hurt by the Transians and left a shadow. I promise, you can go to Scarlet Castle and Booty Bay tonight to be cool. Got it.
Remember to prepare enough money.
You can play for a long time, this is the courtesy that we Transcians owe to landlords.”
Murphy smiled, made a gesture of thanks to the crew member, and then opened the door to the captain's cabin..
What comes into view is a luxurious wooden cabinet filled with various souvenirs from around the world. There is also a mechanical steering wheel hanging on the top, representing the captain's rich sailing experience..
Because the airship is quite large, the captain's cabin is also very spacious. It can even include a compartment for resting, an office area for reception, and even a small wine cabinet..
Murphy looked at the nostalgic style of steam mechanical refrigerator on the wine cabinet. Isn't that the "Mechanical 800" model he used when he and Tris depended on each other?？
“Hello! Vampire, who allowed you to enter my office? i hate vampires！”
A sharp voice sounded from the other end of the captain's room. Murphy turned around and saw a halfling female captain wearing a majestic black captain's uniform and a sailing hat but with long blue hair and a height of less than 1.4 meters waving. A revolver yelled at him angrily.：
“State your name! You bastard didn't even make an appointment.！”
When he saw this halfling, Murphy knew why Captain Paula was hostile to the Transians. The blue-haired halfling captain had a scar on the side of his supposedly delicate and lovely face. seriously ruined her appearance.
And her right arm is a silver-gray mechanical hand. At this time, a dark, large-caliber gun is popping out of it and is aimed at Murphy..
If she guessed correctly, these two things were probably the "memorials" she got in Transia last time..
“My name is Murphy, local governor.”
Murphy made a gesture of surrender, and said to the halfling in front of him：
“I'm here to discuss business with you. To be precise, I have a commission to hand over to you and your ship. I will pay double, no, triple the reward, one of which is the spirit of compensation paid to you on behalf of Transia. loss' to express the harm this land did to you many years ago.
But please believe me, the bastard vampire who hurt you is now gone..
Even Sarokdar has become history.”
“Don't try to buy me with money! cunning vampire.”
Captain Paula gritted her teeth and cursed：
“No amount of money can buy back my Hammer, that is the ship my father left to me! That was the girl of my dreams, motherfucker, that was the best airship in the world, and I've lost it. Lost it forever.！
My contract with the Hoffman Company requires me to stay here for three months. Of course I will perform the work you ask, but that does not mean that I like Transia..
That's just because I have good professional ethics.
Please leave the ship now！
At least leave my office.”
Seeing how determined the halfling was, Murphy could only lament that the Transians had done all kinds of bad things, and then planned to turn around and leave. But at this moment, the door to the captain's cabin was pushed open, and the drunken first mate Carlisle poked his head in and shouted:：
“Hey, Paula, why aren't you here? We are about to finish the third round. Hey! Handsome Murphy? What are you doing here, you landlubber?？”
“I still want to ask you.”
Murphy looked at First Officer Claire in surprise and said：
“What are you, a pirate, doing here on someone's airship?？”
“Well, Paula is the salesperson of the Blood Terror Fleet in Port Shardeau. She and I have known each other a hundred and fifty years ago. Before that, her father was my best halfling friend. Their family The first pot of gold was obtained by repairing ships and building cannons for our Blood Terror Fleet..
After little Paula lost her airship in an unpleasant accident, it was the captain and I who funded her comeback..
Ah, I suddenly remembered that Paula's airship seemed to have crashed in Transia. No wonder she doesn't have a good attitude towards the people in this place..
Tsk tsk, look at the depression on handsome Murphy's face. He must have been scolded by the bad-tempered Paula just now, right?？
don't care.
Paula has such a bad temper, but she is actually quite nice. This little man is the best business-savvy and courageous halfling I have ever seen..
You're all here, let's have a drink together？
Paula！
Give me some face and accept Handsome Murphy as my friend. He is actually quite good..”
