Chapter 42 Dipper's Relic
look! There is a bat flying in the sky! "The exclamation outside the bar caught Di Pu's attention.
He followed other drunken sailors and ran out to watch the excitement.
"Well, why does this bat look familiar?" Dipper, who was holding a wine bottle, scratched his neck.
Seeing the bats flying away in the sky, the sailors returned to the bar in twos and threes, except Di Pu.
He suddenly remembered that the vampire had told him that the captain had recently obtained a new relic that could turn into a giant bat, and that the most likely person in the sky was his captain Charles.
"Is the captain experimenting with a new relic? Great, if only I had a relic." Di Pu spoke with deep envy.
Seeing that the captain has various abilities because of various relics, it would be a lie to say that he is not envious.
At this moment, he suddenly thought of something, and clapped his hands excitedly, "I have saved some Echo Coins now, and I can also buy relics!"
Looking at the noisy tavern next to him, Dipper rushed in again, a wave of heat rushed over, the drunken crew members laughed and bragged, and the girls with revealing bodies walked through the time. Everything seemed so alive.
He jumped onto the wooden table and yelled at everyone: "Everyone, everyone! Does anyone know where there is a place to sell relics on Coral Island?"
After a pause in the noise, a fat old man with a rosaceous nose opened his big mouth with few teeth and exaggeratedly said: "Look, this little guy has no hair yet, yet he dares to buy relics!" , I’m really tired of living, hahaha!!”
The whole bar suddenly burst into laughter, and the atmosphere was very lively.
On a table in the corner, the other members of the Narwhal stood up with a bang.
The laughter stopped, and the sailors all turned their eyes to the wine glasses in their hands, exploring the people on the ship that they couldn't afford to mess with.
Seeing that the atmosphere was somewhat cold, Di Pu snapped his fingers in the direction of the bar, "Dude, serve everyone a drink, and I will pay for the drink."
The atmosphere became hot again, and the sailors and crew members raised their glasses one after another, saluting loudly and noisily to the boy who had just laughed at him.
A sailor with a naked upper body took a sip of wine and said loudly: "Friend, go to Heipao Lane to have a look, some things that cannot be seen will be thrown there for sale, don't be caught by the black dog , the transactions there are illegal."
"Thank you!" Di Pu jumped down from the table excitedly, waved to his companion in the corner, and rushed out.
"Do you want to follow that kid? You won't get into trouble again, right?" Kenona said to the others.
"It's okay, Dark Crystal Island has come back alive, what is there to be afraid of here, if there are people who don't have good eyesight, they will be killed and thrown into the sea." After Frey finished speaking, he twisted his hands on the waitress's buttocks .
The other crew members nodded as a matter of course.
In Coral Island Harbor District, Di Pu has already gotten to know him very well. After passing through the fish-drying farm with a strong fishy smell, he came to the deserted Heipao Lane.
As the name suggests, all the people in the alley were wearing masked black robes, and Dipper in a sailor suit looked so out of place in the middle of the road.
He quickly squeezed into the crowd and was surprised to see some guys lift their robes, reveal the contents, and whisper to each other.
"Hey, any of you have relics? Does anyone sell relics?"
Di Pu's words immediately attracted the attention of the others, and a short man in black robe leaned over and said in a low voice, "Boy, how much money do you have?"
"Um... 30,000 replies?" Di Pu reported his deposit.
The man in black turned and left, and said in a disdainful tone: "You want to buy a relic after 30,000 echoes? Do you think the relic is a fish in the sea?"
Dipper scratched his neck with his hands in frustration. He originally saved more, but he was ransacked by vampires in Dark Crystal Island.
"Do you want the relic?" Suddenly a voice sounded from behind Di Pu, startling him.
He quickly turned around and saw a bloated man in black robe standing behind him.
"I want to come, but I only have 30,000 responses."
"Deal, 30,000 is 30,000." The man in black took out a silver bracelet from his arms, which was covered with a thick layer of scale.
"Really? Just sell it to me for 30,000?" Di Pu was very surprised, because the guy didn't say enough just now.
"Do you want it? No, I'm leaving."
Seeing that guy pretending to leave, only 16-year-old Di Pu didn't think too much, and quickly agreed. "I want it, I want it, first tell me what is the effect of this relic?"
"After wearing it, the strength can be increased, but the disadvantage is that it is easy to get thirsty."
After Di Pu experimented and found that the relic was really useful, he paid the money readily, feeling flattered that he had picked up a great bargain.
The man in black took the money and left quickly. He walked around the alley a few times and knelt down in front of a door. "My lord pastor, the item has been delivered, and it can be confirmed that it is Charles's crew."
The wooden door opened, and a smiling Sonny came out. "After they go out to sea, give the other bracelet to that guy. Since he's not going to be used by me, Kede can't even think of getting this help!"
"Captain! Captain! Are you in?" Excited Dipper kept knocking on Charles' door.
The door opened with a "creak", and it was Lily's mouse who opened the door.
Dipper instantly saw Charles sitting there without saying a word. At this moment, his whole body was trembling, his face was distorted, his hands clenched into fists as if he was enduring something.
"What's the matter?" Charles' voice was extremely hoarse.
Although Dipper was young, he was not a fool after all. Obviously, the current scene was not suitable for showing off the new relic.
"It's...it's okay, you have a good rest." Dipper turned around and was about to leave when a bat biting a blood-red bag flew in from outside the door.
The bat quickly turned into Orderic, and nervously, he held the plasma bag in both hands and sent it to Charles. "Captain, this is from the hospital."
Charles took it quickly with trembling hands, bit the blood bag with his deep white teeth, and sucked it greedily, scarlet blood dripped from the corner of his mouth, his terrifying appearance was a bit more like a vampire than Orderick next to him.
Dipper walked over to Lily who was standing in the corner, and asked curiously, "What's wrong, Captain?"
There was a certain fear in Lily's voice. "The captain went to find his sister...he came back like this, and almost bit me just now."
At this moment, Dipper saw that his captain suddenly showed a painful expression on his face, and his lips were constantly trembling as he muttered something.
He hurriedly pushed away the vampire who was about to help him, stumbled to open the desk cabinet, took out a piece of green gel and stuffed it into his mouth forcefully.
Charles, who was covered in cold sweat, slowly slowed down his breathing, and with an extremely tired face, he waved to his crew. "I want to rest for a while, you all go out."
Dipper hurriedly followed Orderic out of the door, looked at the door behind him, and said in a puzzled tone: "Why is the captain always so depressed? He already has his own exploration ship at his age, so why not be unhappy?" What? I can have my own boat, and I can laugh out loud in my dreams."
Orderic, who was leaning on the wall, shook his head. "Who knows, but if the captain continues like this, he may not be able to last long. Don't you think he looks more and more like the lunatic on the street?"
Di Pu glared at him dissatisfied, "What nonsense! How can it be possible that Captain Charles is so powerful! If you continue to slander him like this, don't blame me for being rude!"
After speaking, Dipper turned around and walked quickly towards the stairs.
