The Apostle

Chapter 18 - Bloodthorn

Chapter 18 - Bloodthorn

Thinking back carefully, Chen Yue immediately recalled all the doubts he had discovered during the twenty-day flight, but at that time, he was concentrating on his extreme training, and did not connect them for deduction.

The Capital of Freedom was only a few thousand kilometres away from South Asia City, and according to the speed of the Water Puppet, even if the time spent due to extreme training was removed, they should have arrived in seven days.

However, in reality, the time it took them was three times ......

Moreover, if memory serves, during the flight, there was a famous high mountain that looked like a gourd in shape, which Chen Yue had seen three times, and now that he thought about it, the two of them were actually circling around.

Looking at Vinnia very speechlessly, Chen Yue understood that if there weren't quite a few iconic mountains and rivers along the way, they would probably still be circling around the capital of freedom at this time, no wonder with the water puppet's ability, they had to take a boat when they went out to sea, an originally superfluous act that he now figured out.

There was no reference point above the vast ocean, and with Vinnia's exaggerated level of roadkill that would be off by thousands of kilometres even on land, the two of them would not be able to come back once they were there ......

"Ahem." Coughing lightly a few times to break the somewhat awkward situation, Chen Yue opened his mouth and asked, "Mentor, then we'll take a flying beast to East Ocean City?"

He deliberately added the word flying beast, clearly having lost confidence in Vinnia's ability to recognise directions.

"No, there is also a training base from South Asia City, let's go there." Feeling that she had lost face, Vinnia gritted her teeth and made up her mind, "There, you will be trained for the next step."

Naturally, Chen Yue had no objection, thinking that as long as Vinnia did not lead the way, he would not get lost in the sea.

This time it was much more convenient, after Vinnia gave out the address, that Crescent Island was one of the most popular routes and could be reached by any random ship.

After making sure there was no mistake, Venya immediately headed towards one of the largest sea vessels in the harbour. After a slight pause in his footsteps, Chen Yue smiled, a look of understanding appeared in his eyes and he quickly followed.

I'm afraid that Venya, with her status, would not be willing to take a ride on one of those old and dilapidated boats.

When they were still a few dozen metres away from the sea boat, the two of them were stopped.

"What do you want?" The other party puffed out a pair of small eyes and said in a cold voice.

"We're going to Luna Island ......"

"Luna Island? Huh." The small-eyed sight swept the two people up and down a few times, making sure that they hadn't missed anything, and then said disdainfully, "We don't receive ordinary people."

Seeing that the two had no intention of leaving, Little Eye showed his impatience and was about to hook his finger back and call for the strong crew to come up and chase them away when Vinnia spoke up, "100 gold coins."

"Uh." He had to know that an ordinary ship would only cost two or three gold coins for a trip, and even for a luxury ship like theirs, twenty gold coins would be enough. The trip to Moon Island was not a diversion.

After hesitating, Little Eye still had a tough mouth: "This is not a matter of more money or less money ......"

"300 gold coins."

"Pfft." Little Eye at least didn't gag at his own breath, looking at Vinnia like a fool.

Even Chen Yue, felt that it was a bit too much.

"Mentor, why don't we take another boat."

Shaking her head gently, Vinnia vetoed Chen Yue's suggestion.

But surprisingly, even with such a high price, the other party did not relent, but chose to reject it once again.

After her offer was rejected once again, Vinnia stopped talking, but, looking at her, she had no intention of leaving.

Chen Yue also did not say anything more about leaving, it was no longer a matter of money at this point, it was a matter of earning face.

The first thing you need to do is to do something about it.

He took a badge out of his pocket as if it had some kind of flaw on it. Chen Yue brought it to his eyes, examined it against the sun for a moment, breathed a breath of hot air on it, and then, with his fingers, gently wiped it.

His fingers moved slowly and methodically, as if Chen Yue was completely unaware of the impatient gazes around him, and his expression was extremely focused.

It was a very strange scene, but, slowly, the little eye's gaze changed.

When he glanced at the front of the badge, the look instantly became like a frog that had eaten its fill, its eyes bulging out in an exaggerated manner.

"Blood, Bloodthorn ...... "After scowling and saying these words, Little Eye's attitude immediately took a 180 degree turn, and instead of mentioning any more issues of gold, he was exceptionally attentive and took the two on board the luxury sea liner, and personally arranged for them to stay in the The first-class staterooms.

The Bloodthorn, that is a big family in the Free City, not a rich merchant in an ordinary city like South Asia, and, looking at the purple gold inlaid around the badge, that is the highest treatment a family gives to their guests, and their status is definitely no worse than the core members of the family, not to mention that their master cannot afford to offend them.

The two men had a noble temperament and were certainly not ordinary people.

Some surprise shook his head, Chen Yue also did not expect this Vinnia gave the badge has such great power, originally, he still intended to take out his own apostle badge to polish it, did not expect to touch the wrong ...... momentarily

If, indeed, he had taken out the apostle's badge, I wonder how that guy would have reacted in an exaggerated manner, but he was right in presuming that this family was indeed not simple.

"There are several training bases in the outer sea, basically each deacon holds one, the training base outside of South Asia is not my territory, so either I don't go or I can't lose my identity." As he was thinking about it, Vinnia suddenly explained.

Chen Yue suddenly realized that he finally understood why Vinnia had made a spirited argument. The Heavenly Leaf Empire's Apostolic Association was presided over by the three giants, and it was simply impossible to say that there were no disputes or conflicts of interest between them, which was why Vinnia refused to lose her status and insisted on taking the most luxurious sea vessel to the sea.

At the beginning, after knowing that she had gone to the wrong place, Vinnia was a bit reluctant, but at this time, it was impossible to back out.

"Mentor, I think it's better to go to East Ocean City, the training base on Luna Island may not be suitable for me." Chen Yue said sincerely, all along the way, Vinnia had been very kind to him and had spared no effort in guiding him, he did not want her to break out into conflict with the other deacons because of himself.

"Forget it, it's not a big deal, we'll have to face it eventually." With a wave of her hand, Vinnia dismissed Chen Yue back.

Soon after the two of them boarded the ship, a large group of people poured over from the city towards the harbour, and after a flurry of chickens and dogs, the city guards quickly sorted out a passage.

The Lord of South Asia City himself accompanied several young men as they approached.

Standing in the middle, the starry young man had a gentle smile on his face, but gave off a sense of majesty that rejected people, and everyone around him took a few steps away from him, setting off his dignified status.

On his chest was a badge engraved with two seven-coloured diamonds.

Apostle of the Second Order.

Beside him, there were two other First Order Apostles, but compared to the difficulty of advancing to the Apostles' rank, the two were already worlds apart, and most of the crowd's gazes rested on that gentle youth.

If Chen Yue was still here, he would have been able to recognise three of the remaining young men as the flying trio who had had a dispute and had been taught a lesson by Chen Yue on their way from Chia City to the Free Capital.

At this moment, these three were no longer arrogant, and the woman called Lili Dan was even humbly following behind the gentle youth, the naked admiration and love in her eyes obvious to any blind man.

Will "Thunderhawk" and his companion, the blond, followed in the same footsteps, only occasionally casting a look of jealousy and resentment at Lili Dan and the gentle man.

"This ship will be leaving for Luna Island in a few moments, so your lordships will be on their way." The City Lord of Nan Ya City said solicitously.

"My Lord City Master has worked hard." The gentle youth said indifferently, but caused the City Lord to move his eyebrows with joy.

"No hard work, no hard work, I will personally lead the few lords."

At that moment, under the personal leadership of the City Lord, a group of people boarded the luxury sea liner.

"Bloodthorn?" After seeing the noble guests leave, the city lord, who finally had some free time, received a report from his men, two eyebrows immediately knitted together, weighed them, and considering the status of the apostle he had just received, his heart was just relieved, and he raised his hand full of concern: "Forget it, although Bloodthorn is a big family in the Free Capital, it's not so bad that a random person can make this city lord personally receive ...... What is it, an offering, or the most honourable kind."

As if something had been stuffed into his wide open mouth, the city lord froze with his mouth wide open, unable to utter a word, and was too busy looking back at the luxury sea liner, which was already fading away.
