"Hey, Edwin, I see you here again."

Basement prison.

Stretching the prepared wine over the railing and placing it in front of the tall man, Lorne said with a smile.

"Hey, Lokrien, are you trying to trick me again?"

Thomas Edwin, the captain of the Weird Pirates who was bought back to the mansion by Lorne along with the three Boya sisters that day, is still full of hostility towards Lorne at this moment.

He stretched out his hand, picked up the drink without hesitation, and drank it in one gulp. At first, Edwin might have been afraid that Lorne would poison the wine, but now... he just wanted to show off.

First, Lorne told him that if he wanted to kill him, he didn't need to go to such trouble.

Secondly, he felt that being locked up in such a dark dungeon would be better off than alive.

Although the room in this dungeon was far more comfortable than the places he had lived before...

But pirates yearn for freedom, don’t they?

Even if Lorne is different from other Celestial Dragons, he will not force him to do this or that, nor will he abuse him, but as the leader of a pirate group who once dominated the sea, who would be willing to be among the Celestial Dragons? How about being a slave no different from a dog?

"Gulu gulu~~!"

After drinking all the remaining wine in one breath, Edwin threw away the bottle, looked at Lorne and said, "Kill me, I won't tell you the location of the treasure..."

"Then what if I say that I will let you go when the matter is done?"

Lorne suddenly said something again, causing Edwin's sneer to freeze on his face.

He looked directly into Lorne's eyes, and after a while, he asked: "Why should I trust you?"

The implication is that you can kill me directly after finding the treasure, right?

"Why do I need to kill you?" Lorne couldn't help but sigh.

He was really tired, really.

Because the identity of the Tianlong people is here, coupled with his eye-catching appearance, it is really difficult for him to gain the favor of others. If possible, he would like to be more popular than his current identity. Travel through time and become a marine.

Although the resources are far inferior to those of world nobles like the Celestial Dragons, the advantage is that the navy is a relatively positive profession and it is easier to win the favor of others.

not to mention..

After traveling through time and becoming a naval soldier, there is no way he would be uglier than a Celestial Dragon, right?

I have to say that Lorne, who looked a bit handsome in his previous life, has always been worried about his current appearance.

"This is a deal between me and you. As long as my people dig out the treasure according to the location you gave, you can leave Mariejoia. I guarantee that you will not be stopped by anyone."

Seeing that Edwin seemed to be wavering, Lorne said again with a very sincere expression.

Edwin became silent upon hearing this.

It wasn't until a long while later that he exhaled and asked, "What if it wasn't dug out?"

"Didn't you dig it out?"

Lorne smiled.

He smiled and put down the wine bottle in his hand, patted the peanut crumbs in his palm, squinted at Edwin and said, "What do you think?"

There seemed to be a hint of cold murderous aura in the air.

After being "served" by Lorne for two or three months, it was the first time he saw Lorne showing such an expression. Edwin was stunned for about three or four seconds, and then finally He opened his mouth and said: "It's in the first half of the Grand Route, Kobia Island..."

...

"Lord Saint Locrien, did you ask?"

Seeing Lorne come out of the basement, Augsger, who had been waiting at the door for a long time, hurried forward to ask.

"I asked." Lorne nodded, "You can find a more professional person later, listen to my dictation, and help me draw a map."

"Yes."

Augsger bowed and was about to retreat to do some work, but suddenly thought of something, turned to look at Lorne and said, "Do you want to dig for treasures yourself?"

"What, you want me to send you alone so that you can keep some for yourself after digging?" Lorne teased with a smile.

"Ha...haha, how could I have such an idea?" Ogusge looked like you can look at me like this. He made a fist with one hand, hammered his chest and said, "I, Ogusge , I will swear allegiance to Lord Lokrien to the death, and I will never change my mind!”

With his loud voice and his aura as if he was ready to die, those who didn't know it might have thought that Lorne was going to send him to the battlefield to die.

On the other hand, Lorne really didn't have the slightest doubt about Augsger's loyalty.

Looking at the servants, slaves, and guards in the entire mansion, Ogusge had the highest favorability towards him.

In just half a year, it has grown from -87 at the beginning to 405 today.

Lorne thought that as long as he worked harder and reached 500 in one fell swoop, and when the relationship changed from respect and affection to worship and admiration, he would be able to obtain the second skill from Augsig.

only..

Glancing at Augsge's information list, he wondered what he could gain from his shabby skills.

There is simply nothing that can be used.

"Why don't you just keep it for now, and wait until Ogusge learns some new skills in the future, and then get them from him?"

Lorne muttered inwardly.

Anyway, according to the rules mentioned before by the system, it would be fine if he left it without exchanging it. It would be better to keep it and use it later when needed.

"Okay, I understand how loyal you are to me. Go ahead and leave the task of digging for treasure to you." Lorne smiled and patted Augsger on the shoulder.

"Really?" Ogusge's eyes widened in flattery.

"of course it's true."

"I...I will definitely live up to the expectations of Saint Lokrien and successfully bring the treasure back to the Holy Land!"

Because of the habit he had inherited from his time in the navy, Augsger gave Lorne a very standard military salute, and then he took a step forward and ran away towards the gate very excitedly.

As for why I'm excited...

In Lorne's opinion, it was probably because he had gained his trust.

He didn't think that Augsger would do anything like "run away with the money".

After all, the favorability level is there, and coupled with Ogusge's extremely cowardly character, Lorne can't imagine that this guy will make any risky moves.

...

Soon, another two days passed.

Augsger took his fifty guards, as well as several servants and chefs, and embarked on a treasure hunt.

As of today, more than half a month has passed since Fu left Mary Joa in search of the Slippery Fruit.

On this day, Lorne was correcting Marigold's knife-wielding movements in the courtyard as usual. Suddenly, a servant ran over with a phone bug and handed it to Lorne.

"Lord Saint Lokrien, Lord Foz Ford is looking for you."
