Chapter 43 Are You Color Blind?

  (Some readers said that these chapters are a bit watery, so I'll explain. Collecting the Dark Elf requires a process, and yesterday's chapter hid some foreshadowing related to the farming plot later on. However, I will respect everyone's opinions. Waterwater worked hard in school today, striving for two updates, trying to enter the farming plot with the second update. Please click collect and vote to support, thank you everyone)

  It is said that the relationship between men and women is a war...

  From this perspective, the relationship between Lin Taiping and Ye Ge has gone beyond a normal war to an intense showdown.

  During the three-day voyage of the Black Pearl, both sides engaged in a battle of wits and bravery, performing a series of thrilling and tear-jerking scenes: sneak attacks and counter-sneak attacks, subjugation and counter-subjugation, temptation and counter-temptation...

  Unfortunately, despite Ye Ge's best efforts, using all sorts of methods, including putting the Dark Elf tribe's special medicine in his soup, sneaking into his room at midnight to warm his bed, and pretending to be weak and pitiful to gain sympathy, he still couldn't get Lin Taiping to budge.

  In the end, this beautiful woman who was at her wit's end simply took to carrying a thick wooden stick every day, hiding in corners and jumping out to hit Lin Taiping on the head with it whenever he passed by, then dragging him into the room to force herself on him.

  Alright, the only effect of doing this is that her clubbing skills are becoming more and more proficient. Lin Taiping even suggested that in the future, if they encounter a strong enemy again, sister you don't need to use daggers or venomous snakes at all, just sneak up quietly and raise the stick to hit the back of their head, guaranteeing that everything will be solved.

  In fact, almost every cow head was knocked unconscious several times, until Tulu finally couldn't bear it anymore, covering his swollen head and rushing in, hugging Lin Taiping's leg and crying: "Woo woo woo, Lin, just give in to that silly girl, if she continues to hit us like this, we'll all get collective brain concussion."

  "Alright, alright." Lin Taiping patted its shoulder to comfort it, "Hold on for a bit longer, today is a smooth sailing day, if my estimate is correct, probably in another two hours or so, we'll reach Road Island."

  What can be said, Turo could only lean pitifully on the ship's side, secretly praying that the wind direction would not change. Probably the wind god was also moved by its piety, and a strong favorable wind blew up on the sea surface, which allowed the Black Pearl to arrive at the shallow waters of Rhode Island in just over an hour, much earlier than expected.

  Before the sea ship had even entered the harbor, a small warship that was patrolling nearby came over, and the silver-armored knight who boarded to inspect was fully armed. After seeing the boat full of Minotaurs and Dark Elves, he almost subconsciously drew his long sword. Ye Ge, who was resentful and had nowhere to vent, saw this guy dare to make a move in front of him, immediately picked up a wooden stick and snuck up...

  Ten minutes later, the Silver Armor Knight, who was splashed with cold water, was furious and vowed to find out who the bastard was that ambushed him. Lin Taiping, who was standing beside him, couldn't bear it anymore and coughed lightly a few times: "Cough, respected knight sir, actually we are all friends of Mr. Cohen, my name is Lin..."

  "Shut up, you don't have the right to speak here!" The silver-armored knight roared in anger, but just a moment later, he seemed to think of something and suddenly revealed an unbelievable expression. "Wait, are you that Eastern sorcerer?"

  Just a few seconds later, after confirming Lin Taiping's identity, the originally arrogant and stubborn Silver Armor Knight suddenly made a 180-degree turn in attitude. Not only did his tone become extremely polite, but his face was also filled with fanatical worship: "Sorry, really sorry, sir, I didn't know it was your ship, I'll send someone to escort you into port right away."

  This worshipful attitude to the point of wanting an autograph, however, was a great surprise to the Dark Elves, who thought to themselves that Lin was indeed despicable, but as he had said himself, he was indeed very popular in the human world.

  In fact, Lin Taiping himself was also at a loss, unable to understand what he had done that could make this stubborn knight so enthusiastic, but he soon understood -

  Ten minutes later, when the Black Pearl slowly docked, Mr. Cohen, who had rushed to the scene upon hearing the news, almost flew onto the deck, waving his arms and shouting loudly: "Lin, dear Lin, our great hero, you've finally returned!"

  With Mr. Cohen's arrival, along with his three beautiful daughters, the three noble ladies held their long skirts and ran quickly, looking at Lin Taiping's eyes were full of little stars, even the most lovely little maid was shy and blushing, as if she had seen a prince riding a white horse.

  "What the heck?" Lin Taiping was bewildered, slightly sidestepping to avoid the enthusiastic hug. "Wait a minute, what's this 'great hero' business? Is that my new title now?"

  "Of course, of course." Cohen shook his hand vigorously. "Dear Lin, thanks to your wisdom and bravery, we were able to uncover that hidden pirate spy, and according to our interrogation, those guys even planned to launch a surprise attack on Rhodes Island in a few months, fortunately you discovered it early, or else we would have fallen into disaster."

  "Huh, you're talking about Edward and the Captain of the Guard?" Lin Taiping suddenly realized that he had inadvertently helped Rhode Island a great deal, no wonder the knight earlier and Mr. Cohen's three daughters all looked at him with an expression of extreme admiration.

  "That's right, those two scoundrels." Mr. Cohen recalled and still felt a lingering fear, "You know? Lord Ford and his party are deeply grateful and repeatedly asked to invite you to the welcome party after your return."

  Viscount Ford? Lin Taiping faintly smiled, this was indeed an old customer of the Totem Tattoo. Since those nobles had such a request, he naturally had to attend. Perhaps for the Dark Elves, this was a good opportunity.

  "No problem? Then let's set off now." Mr. Cohen immediately turned around and ordered the servant to prepare the carriage.

  Just then, however, he spoke in a low, worried tone: "Lin, there's something I have to remind you of. Lord Ford and the others may be hoping to use your strength to deal with the revenge that Bloody Eye might bring at any moment."

  "Huh?" Lin Taiping was really surprised this time, "You're saying, Blood Eye?"

  "Yes, you know it too." Mr. Cohen gazed into the distance with a worried face, "This time, although you caught Edward and the captain of the guard, you also offended that Blood Eye captain. If he finds out about this... In short, be careful, don't foolishly agree to eliminate Blood Eye just because of Viscount Ford's flattery."

  Half of this was spoken out of friendship, and half out of consideration for his own interests. Lin Taiping was slightly moved, nodding solemnly: "I understand, I'll keep a distance from Blood Eye, and I think I won't be able to find him now."

  "That's good, that's good." Mr. Cohen let out a long sigh, "You know? I've been having nightmares lately, and I've lost over ten pounds. Just thinking about the bloodshot eyes coming to take revenge on us makes it impossible for me to eat or sleep well."

  "Really?" Lin Taiping smiled and stroked his chin, deciding not to tell Mr. Cohen the truth after all. From another perspective, this was obviously beneficial for his weight loss plan.

  "So, we can set off now." Mr. Cohen looked at the carriage approaching slowly, but suddenly hesitated and tapped his forehead, "Ah, I almost forgot, Lin didn't you say that you wanted to go to Devil's Island to bring back a group..."

  "Of course." Lin Taiping turned his head nonchalantly and beckoned towards the empty deck.

  A few seconds later, the dark elves who were originally lurking in the shadows suddenly appeared out of nowhere without warning. Ye Ge also descended lightly from the top of the carriage with a dangerous smile, like a feather gently falling to the ground.

  "Good God!" Mr. Korn took a few steps back in incredulity, his whole face as white as if all the blood had been drained out of it. But only for a few seconds. Then, as if he had thought of something, he suddenly plucked up courage and let out a loud yell, charging forward like a madman.

  "Foolish!" Ye Ge lightly raised the corner of her mouth, and at the same time, two venomous snakes had already hissed and slithered out of her sleeves. "This reckless attack is simply...is..."

  How was it, she suddenly couldn't go on!

  No, Mr. Cohen indeed rushed over in a suicidal manner, but unexpectedly, he didn't launch an attack at all, instead grabbing Ye Ge's hand and shaking it vigorously with great enthusiasm, his chubby face beaming with joy like a blooming peach blossom.

  "Respected miss, welcome to your arrival." With a big smile on his face and his fat cheeks shaking, Mr. Cohen suddenly transformed into the reception ambassador of Rhode Island at this moment, "Ah, please allow me to represent the entire Rhode Island to offer you and your people our most sincere blessings!"

  It was just a little bit, and Ye Ge would have smashed the stick into the opponent's forehead. However, now, after hearing Cohen's words clearly, her first reaction was to stand up dizzily, suddenly feeling as if she had appeared in an illusion.

  What? Did I hear it wrong? This guy said he welcomes my arrival and even calls us the most respected guests?

  It turned out that she was not hallucinating, as Mr. Cohen had already turned around, beaming with enthusiasm, and was chatting with every dark elf present, shaking hands until they were almost falling off.

  "Yes, yes, welcome to Rhode Island. You don't have to worry at all. Whoever dares to do you harm will have to trample over my dead body first!"

  "Right, right, I had prepared the best room, the best food and the best jewelry a half month ago. If you are still not satisfied with anything, just speak out, don't be polite."

  "Don't you understand? No, no, no, you don't need to understand at all. Just knowing that I am a true friend of the Dark Elf tribe is enough. In fact, I have always admired the Dark Elf tribe. Please allow me to offer my humble service!"

  In a short moment, Mr. Cohen became friends with the Dark Elves, regardless of whether they accepted him or not, and without caring about the strange looks from the nearby humans.

  What can be said, a dozen or so dark elves stood there like wooden chickens, only staring blankly with wide eyes, Ye Ge's eyes were wide with wonder as she looked left and right, her mind now only had one thought -

  Wait, this guy wouldn't be... colorblind, would he?
