Chapter 982 A Sea of Experts
Chapter 982 A Sea of Experts
What surprised the three of them most was that there were several women with remarkable bearing on the ship, most of whom had East Asian features.
Beside these women stood many Soul Masters with considerable cultivation, who appeared to be their guards.
These Soul Masters' cultivation levels range from Soul Saint to Soul Douluo.
Anyone who can be escorted by a Contra Legend must be someone of extraordinary status.
The three of them barely needed to think before they guessed that some of them must be nobles from the two great empires, the Douling Empire and the Tianhun Empire.
They wanted to leave that dangerous place before the two great empires went to war.
The place where one can best guarantee their safety is none other than the Sun and Moon Continent, which is just across the sea.
This is why there have been so many ships at sea recently.
"Get out of here, you filthy old beggar!"
"Crew! Where's the crew? Come quick and chase this beggar away! He wouldn't have sneaked aboard, would he?"
Just then, a curse filled with disgust rang out.
Tang Lan and the others followed the gaze and saw a blonde, blue-eyed young woman standing on the deck in the distance, wearing a revealing swimsuit.
Judging from the looks of it, this woman must have just taken a speedboat from the passenger ship to go surfing.
The fine beads of sweat covering her body indicated that she must have just returned to the deck.
But standing right next to the woman was an old beggar in tattered and dirty clothes.
This guy's clothes not only looked like they hadn't been washed in years, but even his shoes had his toes sticking out.
It's hard to imagine what this guy smells like.
"Huh? When did a beggar come aboard this ship? How come I didn't know?"
Bauer, who had been leaning back in his chair, sat up straight and immediately fell into a reverie.
He seemed to be trying his best to find out the general information about each guest on the ship, as if the original registration list had already been imprinted in his mind.
"Chang Chunli, I know, so it was him!"
"How could I have forgotten about him, an elder-level figure in the Beggars' Sect!"
After thinking for a long time, Bauer suddenly slapped his forehead and realized something.
At this moment, Tang Lan and Kevin, who were standing to the side, were both looking on with surprise, not understanding what Bauer was talking about.
"The Beggars' Sect, as the name suggests, is a force composed of beggars in various cities."
"However, their power is mostly loose. They only exchange information and sell it in various places to make some money."
"Apart from that, they are just like ordinary beggars, begging for food on the streets."
"But don't underestimate them. One of them might be an extraordinary Soul Saint, or even a Soul Douluo."
"The person in front of me is a Soul Douluo of level 81, who can be considered an elder of the Beggar Clan."
It's worth mentioning that the Beggars' Sect is the only force capable of spanning two continents; even the beggars from the Sun Moon Empire have joined them.
"If they weren't so relaxed on a daily basis and didn't have a strict doctrinal system, the major empires would probably be on edge."
Bauer recounted the story with a touch of emotion.
"Speaking of which, I've also heard of the Beggars' Sect."
"The uproar in Silver City back then was instigated by the Beggar Clan, in order to oppose the Sun Moon Empire's war with the opposite continent."
"Bauer, it seems you're in for a lot of work this time. Why don't you go over and help ease the tension?"
Kevin urged him with a smile.
"It's alright. Even a Title Douluo has to behave himself on my turf."
Bauer said this in a very loud tone, and then got up and walked towards the larger crowd of Yue Opera performers.
He then asked, "What are you trying to do? Are you trying to disrupt public order?"
"Don't you know this is my territory? Didn't you know my rules before you came up here?"
At the same time, a powerful sense of oppression suddenly descended from the surroundings, and as the voice fell, Bauer appeared in the crowd.
Another level 89 Soul Douluo, just like Kevin, but with some differences.
At this moment, Bauer was incredibly powerful, causing everyone around him to subconsciously lower their heads.
The woman who had spoken earlier fell silent. After a moment of surprise, she said, "Captain Bauer, this old man was just standing here staring straight at me. It startled me."
"He's filthy and smelly. Can you keep him away from me? I'm afraid he might suddenly lunge at me."
Upon seeing Bauer, the blonde woman's attitude softened considerably, and she immediately spoke.
"Oh? Is that so!"
"Excuse me, sir, is there anything I can do for you here?"
The latest novel is first published here!
Bauer was not one to listen to hearsay, so he naturally wouldn't just take the woman's explanation at face value.
However, the old beggar grinned and said nonchalantly, "As the saying goes, a hero is matched with a beauty; beauty is indeed a feast for the eyes."
"I was just watching from the sidelines, and this lady reacted so strongly."
"Fine, fine, since that's how it is, then I'll leave."
The old man didn't seem to care at all. After saying that, he swaggered to the other side in front of everyone.
The people around looked at each other, completely bewildered.
The situation, which was originally tense and on the verge of exploding, was actually resolved by this old beggar.
The blonde woman was dumbfounded. After a long while, she gritted her teeth and said, "He's just an old pervert, yet he talks so high and mighty."
"Since there's nothing else, everyone should disperse. I don't want anyone causing trouble on the ship during this period."
"If anyone does it again, don't blame me for being ruthless."
Bauer dispersed the crowd and it took him quite a while to return and sit down.
Kevin chuckled, "That blonde woman is no ordinary person; she's also a Soul Douluo. What, are Soul Douluos really as common as cabbages on the street these days?"
"Or have we already been left behind by this era?"
Bauer shrugged and said, "They're all unassuming guys; who knows, they might be young ladies from some powerful families."
"When dealing with people like this, as long as they don't say anything, we should just pretend we know nothing."
"We are a passenger ship. Our only responsibility is to escort passengers to their destination. We don't need to worry about anything else."
Tang Lan thought Bauer's words were quite right; most of the people who traveled between the two continents were not ordinary people.
The fact that Bauer was able to earn this income is enough to show that he is a visionary.
If you know something is not something you should know or interfere with, then don't try to know it.
"Young friend, your strength is unfathomable. Don't tell me you're also a Soul Douluo!"
After a few rounds of drinks, Kevin suddenly spoke up, half-jokingly.
Bauer, standing to the side, also smiled as he looked at Tang Lan.
Clearly, both of them had been secretly sensing the fluctuations of soul power around Tang Lan.
Without exception, neither of them could detect even the slightest fluctuation of soul power within Tang Lan. (End of Chapter)
