People are pirates, creating Cthulhu

Black Iron Town, Mine.

As the sky gradually darkened, the people in black could only return without success after a lot of efforts, but Lynch still stayed near the mine.

Until midnight, the hard workers who had worked hard all day were pulled out of bed by the soldiers. Not long after, a cargo ship slowly sailed into the simple dock.

While the hard workers were loading cartloads of iron ore dug during the day, Lynch also quietly lurked on the ship.

In order not to reveal their identity, no soldiers or peons would follow the ship after the ore was loaded onto the ship. Only a few close associates of the nobles drove the cargo ship back to the port of Black Iron Town.

Not long after the cargo ship set sail, when it passed an uninhabited island, under the cover of night, a thick layer of gray fog shrouded the entire island and part of the sea.

However, the crew seemed to not be able to see the gray fog at all, and controlled the ship to gradually move away along the established route, and finally left the scope of the gray fog.

Black Iron Town, port.

It was not yet three o'clock in the morning, but the port was crowded with people. The most conspicuous ones were a group of people uniformly dressed and holding muskets. Each of them looked like a powerful enemy and controlled every corner of the port.

At the pier of the port, surrounded by musketeers, a dozen or so people in gorgeous clothes looked anxiously toward the west of the sea.

"Coming! Coming... coming!"

When a thin man wearing a mink coat saw the gradually enlarging black spots on the sea and sky, he couldn't help but cheer loudly and excitedly.

Before the cargo ship even reached the shore, the group of people swarmed up, even the hard workers behind them who had been waiting to unload the cargo were blocked out.

boom!

Just when everyone was excitedly preparing to rush onto the boat first, a sudden burst of gunshots stunned everyone.

A strong man at the front of the crowd fell to the ground with the sound of gunshots, and fell into the sea along the slippery moss on the stone slab, leaving only a long blood mark on the dock. The man standing near him Several people's faces and bodies were inevitably stained with some splattered blood.

"Oh, why are there so many unruly people every day?"

After blowing on the white smoke floating from the muzzle of the gun, Lafitte swept his malicious eyes through the crowd as if looking for the next target.

"Hey! We all paid!"

Also at the front of the crowd, a fierce-looking man wiped the blood spattered on his face and roared at him with a fierce expression.

boom!

There was another gunshot, and severe pain came from the chest. The ferocity on the man's face immediately turned into disbelief. His thick body collapsed. Seeing Lafitte's ferocious determination, everyone swallowed their saliva in unison. .

Seeing that they all honestly lowered their high heads under the pressure of his gaze, Lafitte was satisfied and allowed the hard workers to push their way to the front of the crowd.

Not long after, the cargo ship parked steadily into the dock, and the unloading wooden planks were placed on the edge of the ship.

"No...it's not good! The mines...the mines, the mines, the mines are all gone!!"

The exclamations on the ship instantly attracted everyone's attention. Lafitte, the old god who was standing by, jumped his brows. He opened a pair of wings behind him and flapped twice to the panicked crew members on the deck.

Under the wide-open hatch, there was not even a hair inside the warehouse. Seeing this, Lafitte couldn't help but feel his heart sinking, and he suddenly felt as big as his head.

The theft of an entire shipload of black iron ore is no small matter.

According to the tyrannical character of the nobles, not only the people on this ship will suffer, but I am afraid that I and the pigs who spent a lot of money to buy the ore will also suffer.

After all, apart from the mine, the only people on site who know the trading time and method are the people at the scene. Although the nobles of the kingdom are stupid and greedy, they will become extremely shrewd once their own interests are involved.

Do you want to run away?

Lafitte began to think about this problem with a bit of pain in his head. If he escaped, he would probably take the blame for the person who actually stole the ore, but if he didn't escape, the only result would be that he would be killed by a knife, and I would be killed by a knife.

After thinking about it, Lafitte felt that no matter whether he ran away or not, he had to hide away from the limelight first. Besides, he didn't want to let go of the guy who had caused him to be implicated so easily.

Before the nobles arrived and the scene was in chaos, Lafitte quietly left this place of right and wrong.

……

The first ray of sunshine in the morning traveled thousands of miles across the ocean, casting a golden glow on this small town filled with black fog.

In the morning, when the three of them were having breakfast in the lobby on the first floor of the hotel, they heard people around them talking about what happened at the port in the early morning.

"Have you heard that a lot of people died at the port yesterday?"

"What happened? When I went out in the morning, I saw the kingdom's army and black market bodyguards searching everywhere on the island."

"Shh! Keep your voice down. I have some gossip. It is said that Lafitte stole a whole shipload of black iron ore and killed all the people at the port, so the army and bodyguards are all looking for him."

"'Devil Patrol' Lafitte!?"

"Yes, his reward has been posted on the black market, 500 million Baileys."

"So many! Tsk tsk tsk, if only I could catch him."

"Hey, Lafitte is not someone to be trifled with..."

While eating, Wilson, who had a pair of panda eyes, always looked like he was hesitant to speak, and after a while his eyes drifted towards Lynch.

"What do you want to say?"

Looking at each other, Wilson looked as if he had been caught eating a child. His eyes were flustered for a while, but soon his confused thoughts were gradually sorted out and smoothed out in Lynch's soft eyes.

"Yesterday, I walked around the town and met a lot of middlemen. Now, except for the ten tons of black iron ore supplied by the black market every day, the daily transaction volume of the entire town does not exceed one ton, but the potential demand The amount is as high as hundreds of thousands of tons. After I came back, I estimated that according to our plan, we would need at least five tons of black iron ore to complete the first step of the plan."

After saying that, Wilson seemed to have lifted a big stone from his heart and stared at Lynch with expectation.

"Five tons? I understand. After dinner, we will get a boat and prepare to go to sea."

There were so many people here, so Lin Qi didn't say anything to him. He just nodded and continued to eat breakfast.

Although Lynch did not give a definite answer, Wilson was also a smart man and immediately read the hidden meaning behind these words from his reaction.

he……

You can actually get black iron ore! ?

Wilson was stunned, and there was a huge wave in his heart.
