Bounty… Danitz’s cheek muscles twitched, and he forced a smile, pretending that he was not “Flame” and didn’t care about it at all.
After Ellan left, he turned around and said to Gehrman Sparrow:
"I think we should change hotels. No, we'd better leave Bayam as soon as possible!"
If I carry a bounty of over 5,000 pounds, I won't be safe anywhere! The pirates and adventurers who were originally at the same level as me will definitely rush over like sharks smelling blood! Prey that can be solved and prove themselves and has a very high bounty is always very popular, no less than a treasure! Danitz suppressed more shouts in his heart.
Klein neither agreed nor disagreed. He slowly smiled and said:
"Are you worried that your reward is too high?"
Danitz nodded heavily, feeling that the madman Gehrman Sparrow had finally spoken human language.
"Besides hiding, there is another solution." Klein said as he walked towards the coat rack.
"What?" Danitz asked subconsciously.
Klein took off his half-high silk hat, put it on his head and said:
"Improve your own sequence."
Let strength match the bounty... He put on his coat, turned the handle, and walked out of the suite.
Promoted to Sequence 6? Becoming a "conspirator"? Danitz was stunned for two seconds, then suddenly frowned and grinned.
When he took the Sequence 9 "Hunter" and Sequence 8 "Provocateur" potions, he did not think there was a big problem. He even began to look forward to finding the legendary treasures, obtaining the mid-to-high sequence formulas and corresponding materials, and becoming a demigod, becoming the new king of the sea. However, the intense pain and bad feelings brought to him by the "Arsonist" potion made him scared and terrified. He couldn't believe that he, who usually strictly followed the captain's orders and constantly provoked his opponents, would still almost lose control.
This forced Danitz to consider whether he should just continue to make enough money and then return to Intis to become a wealthy man.
He stood there, confused for several minutes, and finally figured out a problem:
Even if you want to take the potion to advance, you can't do it in a short period of time, because you still have to collect the recipe and materials, which is not an easy task, and the new bounty may be released tomorrow or even today!
Therefore, we still need to change hotels and leave Bayam as soon as possible!

After leaving Ralph Trading Company, Alger looked for information in a few places, seemingly seriously but perfunctorily. He received new intelligence from the Church of Storms around noon:
"It has been confirmed that the person who posted the notice at the church entrance was 'Flame' Danitz.
"Keep an eye on his whereabouts."
“Flame” Danitz… Alger held the note in his hand and chewed on the name silently. The corners of his mouth curled up a little bit, and there was no longer any doubt in his heart.
He thought steadily and relaxedly about sailing out to sea and hunting for materials, and he was full of confidence in it.
Because this will happen at sea, and because Mr. Fool has a new identity:
"Poseidon"!
…………
As he had missed the Blue Star Time in the morning, Danitz waited until 4pm before taking advantage of Gehrman Sparrow's absence to try to hold the "Spiritual Seduction Ceremony".
He skillfully depicted the holy emblem of the "God of Knowledge and Wisdom" - an all-seeing eye on an open book, and arranged the corresponding altar.
Inside the spiritual wall, he lit a candle, picked up the hydrosol extracted from lavender and mint, and dripped it on the quietly burning flame.
A fresh and pleasant fragrance filled the air, and Danitz burned several kinds of herbal powders in succession.
After doing all this, he took a step back and said in ancient Hermes:
“I pray for the power of knowledge;
“I pray for the power of reason;
“I pray for the favor of the God of Wisdom;
"I pray that you will allow me to communicate with the spirit of 'the teacher who pursues knowledge, the researcher of spiritual creatures, the admiral of the iceberg above the sea, Edwina Edwards from Lenburg.'"
…
Woo!
As the spell echoed, the altar suddenly became cold and gloomy. Except for the three candles, the remaining brass holy dagger, the salt plate, the pure water bottle, the paper and the pen all floated up and drifted in the air.
Danitz waited nervously, not knowing what would happen next.
After more than ten seconds, the flames of the three candles shook together, tinged with a pale light green!
Danitz's body suddenly stiffened, as a chilling chill forcefully invaded him, completely unable to resist.
He saw his feet move uncontrollably and he took a step forward.
He saw his left hand rise and grasp the black pen and the whitish paper.
He saw himself bending down, holding a pen in his left hand, and writing quickly:
"What's the matter?"
Those words were elegant and continuous, very artistic, and completely different from Danitz's own style.
It was not until this time that Danitz discovered that he could control his head and throat.
"Captain, 'Poseidon' Kalvetuwa is dead!" He squeezed out a rather hoarse voice, as if he had a bad cold.
"Specifics," he wrote fluently with his left hand.
Danitz was waiting for this opportunity, and he immediately described the whole story, including how Gehrman Sparrow went to Simim Island to fulfill the wish of an adventurer, how the other party was suspected of being cursed by the "Poseidon", but easily resolved the problem after closing the door, and how the madman made a wrong guess and mistook the ancient elf ruins for the "Poseidon" ruins.
At the end, Danitz quickly added his own judgment:
“I think the ‘Blood Admiral’ won’t come to Bayam again for a long time, and neither will the vast majority of famous pirates.
“It will take at least half a year for the impact of this incident to subside.
"Captain, you and Gehrman Sparrow's hunting plan may have to be put on hold for the time being. I, I want to return to the Golden Dream."
His left hand paused for a few seconds before writing:
"You continue to follow Gehrman Sparrow and serve as a liaison between him and me."
“Captain, you, you can teach him the ‘Séance Ceremony’!” Danitz shouted hoarsely.
His left hand wrote:
"This can only be communicated within a 500-nautical-mile range, and it involves considerable risk to the person conducting the ceremony. You control our contact points on different islands, and this is something that cannot be told to outsiders."
Indeed... Gehrman Sparrow is just an outsider... But, Captain, I really want to return to the "Golden Dream"! Danitz racked his brains and said:
"Maybe, we can invite him to the ship as a guest. No, this..."
Suddenly, Danitz had a flash of inspiration:
"Captain, he has a messenger! He has a messenger!
"A messenger who travels through the spirit world to deliver letters for him!"
This should be an unrestricted way of communication, and it is more secretive and safer! I don't need to be a contact person anymore! Danitz thought with great joy.
His left hand hovered for several seconds and wrote:
“If that’s the case, then there’s no problem.
"The New Year holiday is coming to an end, and it is indeed time for you to return to the ship. You have a certain talent for languages, but you still have big problems in other areas. You need to attend more classes and work harder."
Danitz opened his mouth, but said nothing.
He suddenly felt that returning to the "Golden Dream" was not something worth looking forward to.
…………
In the evening, Klein returned to the Blue Wind Hotel.
This day's running around did not allow him to find a suitable role to play, because in previous investigations, many pirates and adventurers with criminal records had been arrested, and the rest were still hiding cautiously, not daring to go out casually. Whether it was bars, casinos, or brothels, business was currently depressed and there were not many customers.
"It's like this." Danitz came over, cleared his throat, and said with a dry laugh, "This is my first time using the 'Spiritual Ritual', so I wasn't sure, so I tried it in advance. Haha, it worked. I've communicated with the captain, and she also thinks there's no chance to hunt the 'Blood Admiral' recently, and is preparing to recall me to the 'Golden Dream'. As for the contact method, don't you have a messenger? I can ask that messenger to send a letter to the captain."
My messenger was sent by the boss, not mine... And the messenger can only pass messages between the owner and the holder of the token, not involving other people. Well, it can also be between the ritual user and the owner... This reminds me that I have to find a way to get my own messenger, otherwise many things will be inconvenient... As for the method, of course I should write a letter to Mr. Azik for advice. He must be an expert in this field... Klein pulled over a chair slowly, sat down, leaned forward, and said in a low voice:
"Tell your captain that I have a way to find the 'Blood Admiral'."
"Ah?" Danitz was stunned. He didn't expect to receive such an answer.
Then, he saw Gehrman Sparrow's mouth slightly widen and he repeated:
"Tell your captain."
…Danitz shuddered, not daring to ask, and forced a smile:
"We have to wait until the next blue star, which is from 11 to midnight tonight."
“Very good.” Klein praised with a smile on his face.
But Daniz didn't feel happy at all.
Klein stood up slowly and walked towards the bedroom while recalling the special food he had for dinner today.
That kind of food is called "Teyativa", which means "meat in the fruit" in Runic. The chef uses a giant local fruit called "Teyana", hollows out its flesh, leaving only the solid shell, and then stuffs it with mashed mutton and fish, topped with sea salt and several spices, and roasts it repeatedly over the fire. The meat is delicious, exudes a unique fragrance, and blends perfectly with the sweet and sour taste of the fruit.
After closing the door, Klein first wrote a letter to thank Mr. Azik for his previous guidance, and then asked again about how to have his own messenger.
After folding the letter, he took out his copper whistle and summoned the messenger.
The messenger didn't stop, took the letter and disintegrated on the spot.
Huh... Klein rested for a moment and prepared to go above the gray fog to see if the believers' prayers could bring him useful information, such as a person he could actually role-play.
