Hearing Philip's answer, Gochia's gaze at him instantly became warm, and her admiration was beyond words.
Run away? The corners of Lumian's mouth moved slightly, and he did not hesitate to change direction to the "Black Octopus", and he didn't know how to evaluate the act of diving again.
This was beyond his expectations, and he couldn't react in time.
Such a cool and magical undersea ship, such a big pirate with such a high bounty, actually chose to evacuate in a hurry without even trying to open a strong attack?
What kind of pirate is such a little courage?
What is a 25 Felkin bounty, what a notorious "bone breaker", don't mess around at sea in the future!
After Lumian habitually scolded a few words in his heart, he seriously thought about the reason why the "Black Octopus" turned around and ran away without showing his face:
"If I had inspired the residual aura of the 'Blood Emperor', you would have understood it if you ran so fast, why now?
"You can't just find that you have found the wrong target, the 'Asuka' is not the merchant ship you want to rob, and you are rushing to block the real prey, right?
"I have some kind of premonition that if I really want to rob the ship, the end may be worse?
"If you are really good at divination and prophecy, you can confirm in advance that you should not come over, so that you will not have to embarrass yourself under the watches of so many crew members and passengers, and show everyone what it means to drift on the sea and turn backwards......
"Premonition of danger? Before real contact, the 'hunter's' dangerous intuition will not react strongly......"
Thinking of this, Lumian suddenly remembered a sequence, a sequence that had kept him on guard for a long time:
Sequence 6 "Demon" of the "Criminal" path!
The extraordinary of this sequence possesses a special ability called Malice Perception.
If someone can cause fatal harm to them within a certain period of time and take action, and both sides are within the scope of their capabilities, they can directly sense and detect where the danger comes from and from whom.
"Is Basil the 'Bone Breaker' a 'demon'? His title and style are quite similar......
"I just made a hunting plan for him, and when I planned to 'teleport' over after confirming the situation, he sensed my malice, confirmed the degree of danger, and quickly decided to escape from here?
"Hey, are you a 'demon', do you run away without a fight? I myself am not absolutely sure to kill a 'demon', and you are still on your own alchemy ship, with a large number of minions around, and there should be no shortage of magical items yourself, do you want to be so cowardly?"
"The plan I envisioned had a very high success rate, so much so that Basil could perceive the danger beyond his ability, so he didn't take any risks and chose the most effective and safest response - running away?" The more Lumian thought about it, the more he felt that this guess was close to the truth.
This also made him feel funny.
Frankly speaking, his plan just now was actually very idealistic, not considering the sequence of the "Bone Breaker", nor the ability of the pirates around him, let alone how to use the "imaginary bottle" to pick out the basil for a one-on-one duel.
The "hunter" is not necessarily the one who rushes to fight at the beginning, but it may also be the last character to appear and be responsible for harvesting.
But is such a simple plan and its own malice that scared away a "demon" in advance?
Lumian suspected that Basil might not be able to perceive the specific plan, just because he had the angel of fate, the aura of the "Blood Emperor", the seal of "Mr. Fool", and the "0-01" slight pollution and other things on his body, regardless of whether he had power or not, but were high enough.
Are you "demons" so timid? Lumian cursed silently, left the deck with a slight disappointment, and returned to room 5 of the first class.
At this time, the exclusive waiter had delivered lunch, Ludwig was concentrating on the food, and Lugano was wandering by the window, looking excited.
Seeing Lumian return, the "doctor" said excitedly:
"Just now, a great pirate appeared, 'Bone Breaker' Basil, 'Deep Sea General' Hal. Konstantin's most powerful captain, he still drives the 'Black Octopus', you, have you heard of the 'Black Octopus'? That's a magical ship that can dive to the bottom of the sea!"
"I heard it in the bar last night." Lumian replied honestly.
Before that, he really didn't know much about the "Deep Sea General" and his pirate group, but he only knew that there was such a pirate general, after all, Hal. Constantine is quite mysterious and rarely appears in various newspapers and magazines that record maritime stories, and in the "Great Adventurer" series of novels, only his title and name are used, making him a background board without any plot line.
Lugano did not hide his emotions:
"I just saw that magical pirate ship with my own eyes, it really floated up from the bottom of the sea and bloomed like a flower!
"I thought we would clash with the 'Bone Breaker' and rely on your teleportation ability to escape here, but who knows, the 'Black Octopus' only observed for more than ten seconds before choosing to leave."
Ten seconds? Do you look down on "bone breakers" too much? A few seconds! Lumian retorted Lugano in his heart.
Lugano continued:
"When I was chatting with a few sailors in the morning, they told me that the security director of the 'Asuka' is a retired officer who is very powerful and knows many great pirates, I thought they were bragging, but now it seems that the security supervisor is really not simple, and he may really have a friendship with many great pirates, so that the 'Bone Demomer' Basil will not rob the 'Asuka'!"
"Yes, yes." Lumian echoed.
Tear ...... Ludwig tore off the oily skin and flesh from a duck leg.
Lumian glanced at the little boy who was focused on food, and suddenly had a new idea:
Could it be that the "bone breaker" Basil perceives more than one malice and danger, not just from me?
When Ludwig heard the word "bone dismantling", he probably started to swallow......
However, this walking bottomless stomach pouch is more similar to mine, although it looks high-ranking, it actually has no corresponding ability......
…………
To celebrate the fact that the Asuka was not plundered by the Black Octopus, in the evening, the captain held a party on deck with a clown, magician, and tamer, and invited everyone to three beers.
The third-class bar was even more lively late at night, and Philip became the focal point here, surrounded by almost all the guests, who took turns complimenting him and inviting him to drink.
They all thanked the security supervisor for persuading the pirate to leave with his friendship with the "Bone Breaker" Basil, preventing the passengers on the "Asuka" from suffering tragedy.
Lumian, who was sitting at the bar and chatting with the bartender Francesco, tasted the fierce Lonzi, and his eyes swept Philip's face casually, and found that there was an unconcealable solemnity and worry under the frivolous smile of the blonde and blue-eyed middle-aged man.
In other words, he is actually not so happy.
Well, I'm sure he didn't scare the "Black Octopus" away...... Hehe, your mind is still clear, knowing that a big trouble is approaching your ship and choosing to leave unusually, it often means that there is more trouble lurking on your ship...... Lumian laughed secretly, retracted his gaze, and continued to cooperate with the bartender Francesco to chat about the beautiful women in the third class.
After nearly an hour, Philip squeezed out the bunch of drunken guys and sat down next to Lumian with his lover Gochia.
He knocked on the table, asked for a glass of golden beer, and said casually:
"You actually like to drink in such a noisy and chaotic place."
"The girls here are more enthusiastic than first-class class." Lumian probably guessed the purpose of Philip's coming, but didn't ask.
Philip laughed:
"That's true."
He asked casually:
"What did you do when the 'Black Octopus' came?"
"You don't remember, I was not far from you at the time, you still don't know what I did or not?" Lumian was very calm.
Philip nodded lightly and did not ask any more questions.
Lumian took a sip of the spirit and asked with a smile:
"Do you think there is a big trouble on the ship that scares away that little trouble?"
Philip turned his head sideways and glanced at Lumian, not too surprised to have such an association with him.
"What are you talking about?" Gochia, who was obviously drunk, couldn't understand the conversation between the two men.
They're like telling riddles.
"This is the most reasonable explanation I can think of." Philip ignored his lover's question.
Lumian asked with interest:
"Who do you think is suspicious?"
From yesterday afternoon to noon today, the security supervisor should have warned quite a few people.
Philip put down the beer glass and raised his hand to rub the corner of his forehead.
After thinking for a while, he smiled:
"I wanted to tell you, but now I don't think it's necessary."
"Why?" Lumian asked a little curiously.
Philip took another sip of beer and laughed softly:
"As long as that big trouble doesn't break out on the ship, it's not a trouble for me.
"You also saw that it didn't show itself, it was quietly hidden, which means it may just want to reach the archipelago or Port Santa smoothly."
Speaking of this, Philip was quite emotional and said with great experience:
"Many times, when you see an abnormality, you don't need to care about it, and you don't have to figure out the truth, pretending not to find it, and patiently waiting for the abnormality to leave by itself, is the best choice.
"An anomaly that does not break out is not an anomaly, and your investigation and investigation may stimulate it, making the problem serious and making disaster truly coming.
"As long as the anomaly has not really harmed us, try to remain in awe and not provoke it, which is one of the important reasons why I have been able to live at sea until now."
Lumian nodded lightly and said:
"A relative of mine once said that in some incidents, people who can't see, hear, speak, or smell are more likely to survive."
Philip smiled and stretched out his right hand:
"I'm glad you have this understanding."
This was the real purpose of his visit to Lumian to talk to him, so that the guy who used a fake identity would not be curious and not try to figure out what the big trouble was hidden on the ship.
That might affect the whole ship!
Lumian, who understood Philip's meaning, couldn't help but raise his eyebrows:
So, does it mean that there are other big troubles on the ship?
