Chapter 162 Slave Merchants
The undercurrents in Nassau made Rorschach unexpected.
He thought that with his help, Nassau developed so well, that as the leader of Nassau, Honigold should see the future prospects of the pirate kingdom and would no longer be so stupid to accept the recruitment.
However, the opposite is true.
It is precisely because of Rorschach's emergence in the Pirates League and his growing influence that many of Hornigold's practices are even more unacceptable.
This situation is like a class, one day a beautiful girl suddenly came to transfer to a student.
Then, while sighing at the beauty and wisdom of the students, the students realized that the girl who was originally regarded as the class beauty was so ordinary.
Moreover, around the beautiful woman, her shortcomings can be seen even more.
People are afraid of comparison.
Rorschach can lead everyone to get rich together, but what about you, Hornigold?
It will only limit us from not being able to do this and not being able to do that!
Although he knew that Honeygold might accept British amnesty in the future and transformed himself into a pirate hunter.
But now he is at least the leader of the Pirates League.
If Hornigold is really voted to step down, with Rorschach's current influence and strength, he will definitely be able to replace Hornigold and become the leader of the Pirates League.
However, considering the interests of the Pirates and Nassau, Rorschach felt that Hornigold was ousted from power, perhaps not a good thing.
This is equivalent to pushing him directly to the Templars.
You should know that Honeygold, Blackbeard, Edward and others are all friends, and are also one of the founders of the Pirates Alliance.
This will make the originally harmonious pirate alliance again
But if Hornigold could be persuaded to change those inappropriate rules, perhaps this is the case
Thinking of this, Rorschach felt that he should go and talk to Blackbeard and Edward...
...
The streets of Havana Square are still noisy.
The bright sunshine shines on your body, and you feel warm all over.
Walking between people, Rorschach, wearing black clothes and covering his face under his hood, walked straight towards the Governor's Mansion.
Today is the day he left Havana.
Before returning to Nassau, he planned to tell Torres apart and inquire about the situation of the Knights Templar.
However, when Rorschach came to the Governor's residence familiarly, he found that Torres was meeting a guest.
Moreover, he knew this guest.
"Captain Rorschach, you are here just in time. I'll introduce you to this gentleman..."
While speaking, Rorschach turned his gaze to the guests on the seat:
It was a white-haired old man wearing a wide round hat and holding a pipe in his hand, looking like a manor owner.
"Lawrence Prince, a very good businessman, is also my old friend."
Upon hearing this, Lawrence Prince looked up and down with his eyes full of sinister words, and then said in a deep voice:
"I know you, you are the wanted pirate of the East...what is your ship called..."
With a raised brow, Roche casually reminded him: "Poseidon."
"That's right, it's this name. I have to say that your head is very valuable, even better than me."
After saying that, he turned to Torres and asked, "So, he is also a Templar?"
Torres nodded.
“What a pity…”
I don’t know if it’s a pity for Rorschach, the pirate who joined the Templars, or if it’s impossible to attack Rorschach, it’s a pity for him to get this huge reward.
Then it's unknown...
In the next conversation between the two, they learned that a few months ago, Torres asked Lawrence Prince, a Dutch slave trader, to pay attention to a man named Roberts.
Asked:
"Oh, is the matter done?"
With a raised brow, Lu Qi immediately raised his black handguard and replied:
"Of course! By the way, this thing is very useful..."
Without joining the conversation between the two, Bell came to the telegraph machine as soon as he walked into the studio and wanted to test the performance of the new line.
After fiddling, Bell suddenly shouted excitedly: "The line has been repaired, and you can receive the message again!"
After saying that, he turned around, bowed slightly to Lu Qi, and thanked:
"Good job, Mr. Mars, thank you again."
"His Excellency Bell, you are so polite..."
"In this way, we can defend press justice and freedom of speech!"
Looking at Bell's confident look, Lu Qi smiled slightly and echoed casually: "Yes, freedom is just as good as that..."
However, freedom is also the hardest thing to get...
Lu Qi did not say this sentence.
......
The night is getting thicker and there are few passers-by on the streets, only carriages that are crisscrossing on the road.
Farewell to Bell, Lu Qi and Green left the studio, got on a carriage and drove somewhere.
The carriage wheels pressed on the masonry road, making a slight creaking sound, but did not affect the conversation in the carriage at all.
"The liberation of the White Church, the establishment of the new telegram line... In this way, Starry's power will be somewhat weakened."
"It's all thanks to your assistance, Alex."
Lu Qi just shrugged for Green's gratitude and asked:
"Is there any new news about Starry recently?"
Although he knew that his long-term goal was to liberate London from the Templars, and to kill the thugs and control the seven administrative districts of London, Lu Qi did not have a good plan for the time being.
After all, he had only been in this world for less than half a month. His understanding of the Templars was limited to their boss called Starry, and his power spread throughout all classes and industries in London.
As for whom Staray's men and the resources and connections that power can mobilize, he knew nothing about these key information.
However, thankfully, he has the specialty of Indian brothers, an assassin who collects intelligence...
Hearing Lu Qi's question, Green's expression sank, shook his head and replied:
"Apart from promoting a painkiller all day, the Templars didn't seem to be making much noise. But this is exactly what I worry about the most..."
"The quieter it is, the more it means that they are planning a bigger conspiracy!"
After a pause, Green couldn't help but lower his voice, leaned forward slightly, and said to Lu Qi in a low voice:
"I suspect they are secretly looking for a pioneer artifact, and they are very close!"
When Lu Qi heard the term "Preliminator" and knew a little about the background of the "Assassin's Creed" series, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and ripples appeared in his heart.
The pioneer, also known as the First Civilization or Yishu, is actually a race with a long history in the game world of the Assassin's Creed series.
This is an ancient race that first appeared on Earth. They used their advanced technology to create powerful fragments of Eden and also create humans.
However, due to a certain earth disaster, both humans and pioneers suffered devastating blows, and the number of pioneers was almost extinct.
The fragments of Eden they created were also scattered to various parts of the world.
In order to rule the world and establish the so-called new world order, the Templars began to search for fragments of Eden scattered around the world.
As the mortal enemy of the Templar, in order to stop the Templar's ambitions, the Assassin Organization is also looking for these powerful forces.
