Why would that madman Gehrman Sparrow want someone else to claim the bounty for the "Blood Admiral"? No, wait, why can he claim the bounty for the "Blood Admiral"? Danitz suddenly woke from his confusion and disarray, grasping the key point.
He abruptly lowered his head again, not letting his gaze reveal his shock and bewilderment.
The adventurers nearby continued:
"How is that possible? No one dares to claim it on his behalf!"
"Right, unless they want to face the wrath of the
"Forty-two thousand pounds... If I could get a bounty like that, I'd head straight to
"Haha, shouldn't you first enjoy yourself at the 'Red Theater' for half a year?"
"Maybe Gehrman Sparrow can go collect bounties from Intis, Feysac, or Feynapotter. It wouldn't be forty-two thousand pounds, but it's still a lot..."
...
Several adventurers, as they talked, began to fantasize about life after obtaining 42,000 gold pounds, and even argued heatedly over differing opinions.
No way... They mean Gehrman Sparrow killed the "Blood Admiral"? No, although the madman always had thoughts about it, he lacked the necessary help and needed to cooperate with the captain...
As soon as he left, the previous adventurers looked at his back, lowered their voices, and discussed among themselves:
"Do you know him? Sneaky and timid — clearly suspicious!"
"I didn't get a clear look at his face, but I think he's with the pirates, here in Baiyam to gather information."
"Should we..." one adventurer made a throat-slitting gesture.
"Maybe he's someone we can't afford to mess with. Wait until this period is over," another adventurer stopped his companion.
Danitz entered an empty billiard room, went to a corner, picked up a stack of newspapers, and quickly flipped through them. Gradually, his expression became somewhat twisted.
"What did that madman actually do? Did he really kill the 'Blood Admiral'? In just a few months, his strength has increased to this level! And, and the newspapers didn't mention
No, no, at that time, my death wouldn't even be worthy of being in the newspapers... Sigh, Gehrman Sparrow is really a member of an evil organization... Thinking this, Danitz suddenly froze, as if turned into stone.
Because, he seemed, possibly, probably, also a member of that evil organization...
"Haha, the church and the military always like to exaggerate. Hmm, it's a secret organization, not an evil organization!" Danitz comforted himself, and once again felt that the organization behind Gehrman Sparrow was extremely mysterious and extremely powerful.
The hunting of Seniel, one of the seven pirate generals, was proof!
Huh... Danitz sighed, and fearfully praised "the Fool" in his heart, expressing his attitude of wanting to work seriously.
....
Near a small building close to the Governor's residence, Elan and Uskent walked out.
"Finally over..." Elan sighed and put his captain's hat on his head.
Uskent rubbed his red nose from drinking often, and echoed with a sigh:
"Yeah."
Because of the issue with Gehrman Sparrow, they had been isolated and investigated for a full two days, facing "Interrogators" who were most skilled at this kind of thing.
Fortunately, Elan had not concealed anything from the start; what he reported to his superiors was that Gehrman Sparrow's origins were unknown but he held goodwill towards the military, and that including this crazy adventurer as an informant and investigating his background was a high-level decision, not his own.
As for Uskent, there was even less of a problem; helping Gehrman Sparrow collect the bounty was just normal procedure for him.
Walking slowly along the central path of the yard towards the gate, Elan casually remarked:
"Who would have known that Gehrman Sparrow would be so crazy, so powerful..."
According to the limited information he had learned, killing the "Blood Admiral" was just the most normal and smallest thing Gehrman Sparrow did that day.
And such a crazy guy, back then to save a few passengers and crew who had only shown him kindness, had voluntarily entered the dangerous Bansy.
Elan only learned afterwards that the terror hidden in Bansy far exceeded his imagination — the
If I told the interrogators that Gehrman Sparrow had a soft and kind heart, they would definitely think I was lying... Humans, really a collection of contradictions... Elan silently shook his head.
After hearing Elan's remarks, Uskent smiled bitterly and responded:
"At the time, I thought the person you introduced was just a relatively powerful adventurer, but he even killed the 'Blood Admiral'! Damn it, I even think he has the ability to become the Fifth King. Look at that forest, look at the shape of the nearby mountains, and you wouldn't doubt my statement!
"It's like, like..."
Elan looked at Uskent and helped him add:
"Like being bombarded by coastal defense guns hundreds of times."
"That's right, that's right!" Uskent agreed with Elan's description.
