"Brando————"
On the deck of the Black Death, Tracy softly whispered someone's name in a voice only she could hear.
"Could it be———— you're really still alive, still————"
Thinking of a possibility, her whole body trembled slightly with excitement, and a twisted smile, mixed with ecstasy, possessiveness, and pathological obsession, appeared on her face. Seeing the captain's peculiar reaction of crying and laughing, the surrounding Sailors exchanged glances, all at a loss, but no one dared to ask another question, fearing to anger this temperamental woman.
A moment later, Tracy put away the brand new ripper and turned to leave. She had to return to her room immediately to confirm again.
"Cap-Captain————" The Sailor who bought the gun mustered his courage and stammered, "That gun———— can I have it back————"
That cost him over twenty pounds, a huge sum! Enough to buy hundreds of bottles of wine.
Uh!
Tracy's steps suddenly stopped. She turned slightly, casting a cold glance at the Sailor out of the corner of her eye.
With just one look, the Sailor felt a bone-chilling killing intent.
"No! No need! If you like it, it's a gift! It's my honor!"
Back in the captain's cabin.
Tracy carefully picked up the handmade shotgun, which she treasured, from beside her pillow and placed it side by side with the mass-produced ripper in her hand, comparing them meticulously.
Although she was already mostly certain in her heart, the feeling of seeing it with her own eyes still made her feel more at ease————
After a long while, she casually tossed the new ripper aside, then tightly embraced the crude handmade gun and lay straight on the bed. The cold, rough gun body gently rose and fell with her soft curves.
"If———— if it's really like this————"
"But, the corpse I saw with my own eyes that day————"
——
A question still lingered in Tracy's mind, and she fell into deep thought.
"It must be that bitch Edwina!"
A moment later, a curse filled with endless malice burst from her lips.
She thought carefully, no matter what the truth of this matter was, it definitely had something to do with that woman, Iceberg Admiral!
Initially, that fellow Alger personally said that Brando was accidentally killed by 'Flame' Danitz, and 'Flame' Danitz was that bitch's subordinate.
In the end, even Alger was inexplicably rescued from his own ship!
After much thought, Edwina Edwards' shadow was definitely behind this matter!
"Could it be———— she wants to fool me, make me give up completely, and then———— then she can have Brando all to herself?"
"Yes! That's right! It must be like this!"
"That bitch!"
"How———— how dare she!"
A flame mixed with jealousy and anger instantly filled Tracy's heart, almost driving her mad.
"Brando is mine! And can only be mine!"
"No one can take him from me!"
At that time, Brando's corpse was lost by her maid, and she was extremely furious.
The blonde maid was directly hung from the bow of the ship by her, and then thrown directly into the sea.
She had even prepared to place the corpse in a crystal coffin and accompany it for the rest of her life.
Who would have thought, unexpectedly————
However, she had found things strange back then, and now with the appearance of this gun, it indirectly confirmed the most unbelievable guess deep in her heart.
"I knew that fate would not separate us two."
After calming down, Tracy murmured foolishly, a trace of daze flashing in her eyes.
"First, go to Bayam to thoroughly confirm these guns. Then———— find a way to go to Backlund."
Suddenly, she unconsciously clenched her thighs, a blush flashing across her fair face.
"I just had it this morning———— how do I feel it again.
She bit her lower lip and slowly reached down.
"Brando————"
"Achoo——!"
Lorne, walking in the East Borough, suddenly sneezed. He rubbed his nose and muttered.
"Why do I suddenly have a bad premonition————"
"Someone is thinking about me?"
He cautiously glanced around, finding the streets bustling with people, everything as usual, and his spiritual intuition did not send any warnings.
"Nothing seems wrong, strange————"
——
He was in a pretty good mood now. Father Utravsky not only gave him the Apothecary's potion formula and a large bag of medicine that could temporarily alleviate the workers' illnesses, but also another Mystical Item as payment for completing the commission.
The Father told him to choose one of two Mystical Items.
One was a syringe that he could inject himself with at a critical moment, instantly healing some injuries and greatly boosting his strength, like adrenaline. The other was a master key that could open any lock and door that did not contain Beyonder power.
He wasn't sure which Pathway the former belonged to, but the latter was most likely a product of the Apprentice Pathway. The moment he heard about its ability, he thought of Fors. He had heard Fors describe the Apprentice's abilities, and this master key's ability was almost identical to that of an Apprentice.
Honestly, he wanted both items. For no other reason, the Winner had no similar abilities.
Whether it was the life-saving ability to burst out at a critical moment or the wall-penetrating ability to ignore obstacles, both were extremely tempting to him.
Unfortunately———— he could only choose one.
He had actually thought about choosing one from the Father and then buying the other.
But whether the Father would agree was one problem———— his money running low was another problem.
The initial one hundred thousand pounds was almost gone.
Buying various factories and industries cost him seventy thousand, the charity fund cost another ten thousand, and the daily procurement of raw materials for the factory and workers' wages were also an expense. Two days ago, he bought a villa, which needed money for renovation, and he also lent five hundred pounds to Xio and Fors————
Suddenly feeling like he was a spendthrift———— Lorne couldn't help but sigh.
Before the money from arms smuggling arrived and his properties stabilized, he decided to keep more cash flow for emergencies.
Ultimately, he chose the master key.
Coupled with the Winner's luck, if he encountered an enemy he truly couldn't defeat, choosing this key should greatly increase the probability of a successful escape.
According to Father Utravsky, the previous owner of this key was Emlyn White. He originally wanted to ask Emlyn about the origin of this key and also inquire about the truth of the so-called "psychological suggestion." But the atmosphere in the church was a bit off at the time, and the Father had just undergone a "mental treatment" and was not in good condition, so he excused himself.
"I still have Teacher Sharon's class tonight, I can take the opportunity to inquire about the Primordial Moon."
"The Sanguine seem to have a deep connection with the Moon————"
"The only trouble is still the medicine————" Lorne sighed.
"Inflammation, infection, etc.———— the medicine given by the Father won't last long at all."
He couldn't shamelessly ask the Father for it every time, and buying it would be another significant expense————
"Fresh eel soup!"
"Vegetables just harvested from the farm outside the city! Selling cheap!"
"It seems I've unconsciously walked to the small market around the factory district," Lorne realized.
"Should I buy some vegetables to take back and make a long-awaited Chinese meal?"
"Scrambled eggs with tomatoes, stir-fried pork with chili, garlic pork belly————"
Wait——
——
Lorne's steps suddenly stopped.
He remembered a video he had seen before his transmigration, which taught people how to make basic medicines using common plants if they traveled to ancient times.
An interesting idea suddenly formed in his mind.
