Chapter 52 Chief Mate

   "Mr. Rhine, I saw the note left by the captain, let's go find my cousin now!"

  On the street outside the Zijinhua Church, the first mate of the Jellyfish said flatteringly to Li Feng.

   "Where's Captain John? Is he not coming?"

  Li Feng saw that the first mate's complexion was a little pale, as if he was not well rested.

   "Oh, because... my cousin is going to sea soon, he would like to talk to you before going to sea, let's go."

  The first mate urged in a sly way.

   "Going to sea soon? When will your cousin come back?"

  If the first mate's cousin is going to sea soon, Li Feng may not be able to keep up with the ship.

   Seems to have heard the meaning of Li Feng's words, the first officer immediately replied:

   "Just three to five days, I'll be back soon, let's go, Mr. Rhine, or we won't be able to catch up."

  The first mate was about to raise his legs and walk forward as he spoke.

  Looking at his appearance, Li Feng inexplicably felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.

  However, Li Feng still kept his eyes open. He looked back at the door of the church, and Ralph just came out of it.

   Afterwards, Li Feng asked the first officer to wait for him.

  He himself went back and told Ralph that he was going to meet his cousin in the dock area with the first mate.

   After explaining where to go, Li Fengcai and the chief mate rushed to the dock area together.

  In the early morning, the wind blows and the mist outside the city is dense, and the breeze blowing by it makes people feel a little cool.

  Different from the strength of Captain John, the first mate is a tall, thin, middle-aged man.

   What surprised Li Feng was that the first officer walked significantly faster than ordinary people.

   Moreover, he is a crew member who goes to sea all the year round, but he has a floral scent on his body.

   Li Feng knew this kind of floral fragrance, it should be the perfume that young girls love to use, Li Feng had smelled it on Sally.

  The sun was thin this morning, Li Feng and the first officer faced the mist, and climbed up the steps before a section of steps leading to the dock area.

   "Thump, thump, thump."

  Captain John quickly climbed up the steps in front of the door and came to the main door of the first mate's house.

  But just like yesterday, the captain tried his best to knock on the door for a long time, but no one came to open it.

  Look at the sky, it's only 8 o'clock in the morning.

   On the days when you don’t go to sea, there is no reason for the first officer to get up early and go out.

   Unless he didn't come home overnight.

  Captain John pursed his lips, and was about to turn around and go around the dock area to see if he could find the first mate.

  He promised Li Feng yesterday that today he and the chief mate will go to meet the chief mate's cousin.

   It is impossible to find someone now.

   "Hey, old guy, if I like those beautiful girls, I know where to find them, but now, you won't really drink in the pub all night..."

   Captain John was about to go down the stairs and leave the porch while talking to himself.

  But suddenly, he recalled the restless feeling from last night.

   Turning around hesitantly, he took out the key from his pocket, and opened the door of the chief mate's house.

   "Squeak."

  The door shaft makes noise under force.

   "Ah, Kestrel, I didn't sleep last night, but you are finally here."

  In Zijinhua Church, in the office of Bishop Frey, the bishop stood up to welcome the visitors at the door.

  The man was in his thirties, tall and strong, and he gave people a majestic and trustworthy feeling just by looking at him.

   "Good morning, Bishop Frey.

  You know, the Ring of the Earth has been very busy recently, and I haven't had a rest for a long time. "

   Kestrel is one of the leaders of the Ring of the Earth in Storm Island.

  He is a follower of the God of Holy Judgment, a holy judge, and a long-time friend of Bishop Frey.

   "Why, that dream doesn't seem very good?"

  The Ring of the Earth has always been a cooperative relationship with the church, and Kestrel and Bishop Frey are old friends again.

  So the two didn't exchange pleasantries, and went straight to the point.

"Yes."

   Bishop Frey took off his semicircular eyes and put them on the table, with a sad face:

   "As a light praying person, I can predict that this seems to mean disaster, but..."

  The bishop looked at the statue of the goddess of wisdom and life:

   "I'm old after all, and the path to transcendence has been stuck in the 3rd and 5th ranks for too long. In this matter, I haven't seen the goddess to enlighten me for a long time."

   Kestrel nodded, he comforted his old friend, and then said:

   "I heard that the great fortune teller in Wind's Rest is a genius in divination that has rarely been seen in recent years.

  Before I came, I had already sent a request to the monastery in the inner city, hoping that the big fortune-teller of Fell could help us divine your dreams. "

   Bishop Frey nodded after hearing this, and read silently:

   "Fell? Sia Fell?"

   Kestrel nodded with his lips curled, and then he moved his head close to the old bishop. The old bishop understood tacitly, and leaned his head to listen carefully:

   "The illegitimate daughter of the Penrose Fell family who has the least support from her mother's family, it is said that she almost became a victim of the struggle for succession."

"Oh-"

   Bishop Frey nodded clearly.

  Cryptic gossip, especially from those in power, is attractive to anyone.

   Then, the two chatted for a while.

  After that, Kestrel suddenly turned the topic to Li Feng:

   "Mr. Rhine is really surprising.

  I just reported the information that he is a quasi-transcendent, and he has successfully promoted to superhuman!

   It's really fast beyond ordinary people.

  I guess the staff who entered the information at the headquarters, when they received my two letters one after another, would scold me for reporting information indiscriminately. "

   When talking about Li Feng, Bishop Frey swept away the haze for a while, and smiled rarely:

   "Who says no, Mr. Rhine is indeed a rare young man."

   Kestrel nodded in agreement, then suddenly said slyly:

   "So can I see him now?

  He is a hunter, don't stop me in the name of the goddess of wisdom and life! "

   "Tch—"

   Bishop Frey scolded Kestrel with a smile, and planned to get up and ask his assistant to call Li Feng.

  However, at this moment, Captain John's heavy urgent cry suddenly came from the garden outside the door.

   Bishop Frey and Kestrel immediately looked towards the door.

"What happened?"

  The morning sun shines on the blue roof of the monastery, reflecting dazzling light.

   "It's a letter from Mr. Kestrel from the Ring of the Earth. He wants you to divination one thing."

  The maid Shirley handed a letter to Shea Fell. The ring of the Earth logo was printed on the red wax on the envelope.

  Xia opened the letter and browsed through it, her golden eyes rolled imperceptibly, then walked into the quiet room for divination, and ordered no one to disturb her.

  In the quiet room filled with all kinds of crystal balls, Shia sat on the ground with a distressed expression.

  She scratched her long black hair, and she still doesn't understand why humans have long hair.

  What a hassle...

   And what's even more troublesome is divination!

   Moreover, in the dream of Bishop Frey, demons appeared in the outer city and the dock area.

  The corner of Shia's mouth twitched, how could she really do divination.

  ‘Outer city, that human should live in the outer city...’

  Xia inexplicably thought of Li Feng, who called himself Rhine Lee, but when thinking of him, Xia felt a lot of resentment.

  That human didn’t have a single word of truth out of his mouth, even his name was fake.

   And the point is, he lied so confidently that he didn't even try to hide it.

   Act like I was lying to you, believe it or not.

   Alas, they have lived and died together, so why keep their names secret?

  But Xia thought about it, she used a pseudonym herself.

  The real Shea Fell, that poor girl, had died in the battle for the succession of the governor's family.

   And she is just a counterfeit to avenge herself.

  Thinking of this, the young dragon looked at the letter in front of him again, which contained the content he hoped she would divination.

  Wilders of the Mother Goddess of Lawweaver do have the ability to divination, but Shia is only a low-level spellweaver, not that many.

   "Hiss."

  The air swelled and twisted slightly, and a black cat appeared in the quiet room.

  Sia does not have superb divination ability, but she can indeed discover some secrets that ordinary people cannot discover by becoming an inconspicuous little animal.

  The morning sun dispelled the morning fog, and a black cat stood on the high wall of the monastery.

  Looking at the ground below, Shia jumped down.

"Snapped."

  On the more and more remote streets, Li Feng stepped on a dead tree branch.

   "Mr. Chief Mate, has your cousin's ship arrived yet?"

   "Ah, it's coming soon, it's just ahead."

  The first mate walked into a small alley while talking, without any intention of stopping.

  Stepping one foot into the shadow of the alley, Li Feng could no longer suppress the doubts in his heart.

  He stopped, opened his prying eyes, and looked at the first officer.

  A faint coolness rushed to the top of the head.

   Seeking to follow up, please collect
