A+ A- Turn Off Light

On the vast and boundless sea, the light of the morning sun shone on the calm sea surface. It also clothed the Blue Star ship moored in the center of the sea with a golden coat, washing away the latter’s smell of smoke.

The sailors were busy rinsing the deck and brushing off the blood stains in the gaps between the wooden planks with pig bristle brushes.

Last night’s battle, even though the Blue Star had managed to survive with the arrival of the Wang Clan’s naval warships.

However, there were quite a few sailors who perished and were injured in the battle.

Coupled with the fact that this passenger ship was attacked by multiple rounds of gunfire, it did not continue on its journey last night.

It chose to anchor at the same place to rest and recuperate.

As for the three Wang Clan Navy frigates, two of them ran off to chase the pirate ship, leaving one to protect the Blue Star.

At the same time salvaging the corpses.

Until noon, the two frigates returned safely, and the Blue Star then set sail again.

In the first class cabin, Luo Nan received two visitors.

One of them was none other than the captain of the Blue Star ship, while the other was wearing an officer’s uniform of the Royal Family Navy.

“Your Excellency Luo Nan.”

The captain with graying temples shook Luo Nan’s hand vigorously and said in a deep voice, “Thank you for helping the Blue Star ship, and I also feel that you saved the lives of my men as well as the passengers!”

In last night’s battle on the deck, the Blue Star ship’s side was able to repel the ferocious and incomparable pirates, and Luo Nan was definitely the first contributor, playing a crucial role.

He had killed and beheaded dozens of pirates with his own strength, including multiple leader-level enemies.

There were also two Transcendents among them!

If Luo Nan hadn’t saved the day at the critical moment, the deck defenses would have inevitably been lost, then the pirates would have killed the cabins and held the dignitaries hostage, and the Royal Navy would have had to throw in the towel, with unimaginable consequences.

Originally, the captain wanted to come over to express his gratitude to Luo Nan last night, but at that time, he needed to complete too much work, and on the other hand, he also had to verify the results of Luo Nan’s battle, so he delayed until now.

But that didn’t stop this captain from admiring Luo Nan!

He respectfully saluted Luo Nan.

“No need to be polite.”

Luo Nan returned the salute and smiled, “Whether as a detective or a passenger, fending off pirates is my responsibility, Your Excellency doesn’t need to be so polite.”

“Well said!”

The naval officer who came along with the captain applauded and exclaimed.

The captain reacted and quickly said, “Your Excellency Ronan, I forgot to introduce you, this is the first mate of the frigate Monteiro, Lieutenant Commander Gordon Wodehouse. Lieutenant Commander Wodehouse.”

Luo Nan shook the other party’s hand, “Nice to meet you.”

Gordon. Lieutenant Commander Gordon Wodehouse was tall and tough looking, his eyes gleaming, looking at Luo Nan as if he had seen a treasure, “Sir Luo Nan, I wonder if you are interested in joining the Royal Navy?”

“I can serve as your introducer!”

In this naval officer’s opinion, it was too much of a waste of talent for a young and powerful Transcendent like Luo Nan to hang around inside the police world, thus the idea of recruiting him arose.

“Thank you for your invitation.”

Luo Nan ignored the captain’s wink and politely declined, “I’m going to study at the King’s Higher Police Academy, so I have no thoughts of joining the King’s Navy for now.”

Gordon. Lieutenant Commander Wodehouse shook his head, “That’s too bad.”

He was a very proud character and stopped pestering when he was rejected, handing over a roll of paper, “This is a document proving war merit, after our inspection, it was confirmed that you killed the important leaders of the Giant Whale Pirates last night, Quinn Effie and Vito Velcro. Quinn Effie and Vito Harold. Harold.”

“You can hold this certificate and go to the kingdom’s military headquarters in Celes to collect the bounty!”

Through the interrogation of the captives, the Royal Navy side had confirmed that the force that attacked the Blue Star last night was the Giant Whale Pirates.

The Giant Whale Pirate Group belongs to the same old maritime dark forces as the Blackbeard Pirate Group, only that its strength is much weaker than the latter, but it is also quite ferocious and cunning, and it has successfully attacked and plundered merchant ships and passenger liners many times, and has escaped the navy’s strikes time and time again.

Quinn. Effie and Vito. Harold are black beard pirate group in the important head, especially the former equivalent to the giant whale pirate group in the third handle, has long been included in the navy bounty wanted list.

And ranked quite forward.

Quinn. Effie is the pirate leader was knocked into the sea, his body was salvaged this morning, and then after repeated checks to establish its identity.

As for Vito Harold, he died in battle. Harold, he was the one-eyed pirate who died on the deck.

Both of them were extraordinary warriors, and Quinn Effie had reached the second level. Effie even reached the strength of the second order, was wanted for many years still at large.

I didn’t expect to die at sea last night.

This is Gordon Wodehouse. The fundamental reason why Lieutenant Colonel Wodehouse took the initiative to extend an invitation to Luo Nan.

“Thanks.”

Luo Nan took this supporting document and read through it, but unfortunately didn’t see a specific bounty amount on it.

He was lacking money!

At this time, the captain handed over another thick envelope and said, “Sir Ronan, this is a tribute that some VIPs on board the ship have specially sent to you after learning about your heroic deeds, please accept it.”

There was such a good thing?

Luo Nan was more or less surprised, but he didn’t be polite and directly took it, “Thank you.”

He didn’t realize that there were such rules on the sea, if a passenger ship merchant ship encountered a pirate attack, then as long as it could repel it, the participants would get a certain reward.

Some of it came from the ship owner, while others came from the passengers.

Of course the passengers who could come up with the bounty, then they were definitely not ordinary people.

The Blue Star ship, as a large passenger ship, was carrying quite a few dignitaries!

The captain smiled, “This is what you deserve.”

In fact, the captain secretly felt sorry for Luo Nan in his heart because the latter had actually refused the invitation of Lieutenant Colonel Gordon Wodehouse. The captain secretly felt sorry for Luo Nan because the latter had actually refused the invitation of Lieutenant Colonel Gordon Wodehouse to introduce him.

Ronan obviously did not understand what the surname Wodehouse meant in the navy!

If he was able to climb up to the Wodehouse family, then his entire family would benefit, and the potential benefits were too numerous to list.

Ronan had truly missed an opportunity to soar!

But it was impossible for him to forcefully interfere, and after completing his mission, he said goodbye to Gordon. Lt. Colonel Wodehouse to bid farewell and leave.

After sending off these two uninvited guests, Luo Nan opened the envelope branded with fire paint.

A stack of checks immediately fell out.

These checks were all cash checks issued by the Royal Bank, which could be deposited and cashed at any branch within the Kingdom of Invia, with the lowest amount being 100 gold pounds and the highest being 500 gold pounds, all of which added up to more than 3,000 gold pounds!

The signatures on the checks were all different and came with business cards.

Ronan looked at a few of them, barons, viscounts and such characters were there, as well as the director of a certain chamber of commerce.

The aristocrat’s reserve and subtlety can be seen from this.

Luo Nan put away the checks and business cards.
