Chapter 305: "Baby"
The sky is clear and the air is fresh.
A golden sun hung in the clear, high sky. After a heavy rain, the air above the sea was exceptionally clear.
The waves splashed like broken jade, rolling away from the sea and spreading to the farther distance.
A small sailing ship stirred up the white waves and headed towards the floating city on the sea.
On the deck, a dark-skinned woman with a proud figure and waist-length black hair was holding a telescope and gazing into the distance.
Behind her, the gray sails rustled and the sea breeze blew up her long hair, which fluttered like a swallow's tail.
She is the captain of the ship, Elena, who dreams of traveling to the legendary city on the sea to find treasure that can make her rich.
The gray sails mean that their ship is somewhere between a normal ship and a pirate ship. It sails normally in normal times, but at critical moments when food and water are scarce, it will act as a pirate and rob passing ships.
Unfortunately, due to heavy rain, they got lost for a while, causing the journey to be extended too long.
At this time, food was extremely scarce and they had moved into the role of "guest star".
They transformed into pirates.
Elena is very confident and experienced in robbing passing merchant ships.
Although her ship was small in size, it was loaded with special crystals, allowing it to travel quickly on the water and catch up with any merchant ships that tried to escape from their sight.
However, whether it was bad luck or what, they didn’t encounter any boats along the way.
It was as if all the ships on the sea had disappeared.
Elena put down the telescope. The scorching sun shone on her body. She was tired and thirsty.
The fresh water resources have been exhausted and there are only a few pieces of bread left as food. If no more fat sheep come to her door, she will really kill the crew members and eat their meat and drink their blood.
She knew she was not a good person, but this was the way the world was. If the kingdom had not oppressed her to the point where she could not survive, she would not have brought a group of brothers to look for treasure.
"Big sister." A voice came from behind. A hot woman in a bra and shorts came over. She was Carol, the vice captain of the ship.
"What should I do? Should I…"
Carol pointed at her neck and her eyes became a little fierce.
In their cabin were also several slaves brought from the kingdom to do the heavy work.
If they were extremely hungry, they would have no choice but to kill the slaves, but then the heavy work would have to be shared among them.
"...Kill him." Elena wiped the sweat from her face and said lightly.
She felt that the weather had become hotter since the heavy rain stopped. Sweat stuck to her body and she felt uncomfortable all over.
She stretched and took off all the clothes on her body, leaving only her underwear, behaving in a very casual manner.
Carol's eyes stayed on Elena for a moment, then moved away: "Kill her? Then the heavy work will be left to the crew."
"It's better than starving to death."
"Okay." Carol shrugged. "If I wasn't pushed to the extreme, I wouldn't want to kill these beasts. It's really weird. We didn't encounter any ships or victims along the way? We can only start from within..."
"Kill the slaves first." Elena said softly, "If that's still not enough, kill the crew as well to reduce the burden."
"That's just what I want." Carol smiled. "Those weird-looking guys... they're really disgusting. If there was a guy in the crew who looked a little bit like me, this voyage wouldn't be so boring..."
"Captain! M.O.!—Ship spotted!"
At this moment, a shout suddenly came from the other end of the boat.
Elena and Carol looked at each other and both smiled as if they were in business.
"Let's get everyone ready and start working!" Elena shouted.
"No need, Captain." The crew member in charge of lookout responded: "It's a half-damaged lifeboat, and it's a single-person boat. There should be only one person in it."
"Alone?" Elena frowned.
If it's just one person... the value would be much lower. Whether it's captured as a slave or eaten, the quantity would not be enough... But it's a lifeboat, there should be a lot of survival resources in it, there should be water and food as well.
"Forget it, one person is enough. It's easy to get resources for free, and it prevents our ship from getting further damaged." Elena walked to the other end of the ship and saw a small single-person lifeboat floating next to their ship.
It was an inflatable rubber boat with an awning on top and a water-repellent curtain next to it, so she couldn't see who was sitting inside. But judging by the size of the lifeboat, it was only big enough to accommodate one or two people.
During the time she was observing, the lifeboat was actually approaching them actively. She didn't know if it was because of the direction of the waves or something else.
"Kalin, bring the big guy." Elena ordered.
The big thing she was talking about was an iron hook with a wire on a boat.
The crew member on the lookout responded, turned around, dragged a pitch-black iron hook over, and threw it in the direction of the lifeboat -
“Puff.”
The inflatable lifeboat made a sound like a balloon bursting, and then the swollen hull deflated at a speed visible to the naked eye.
And at this moment, the curtain was lifted.
The targeted fat sheep seemed to realize his situation and was forced to climb out of the boat.
