"Thank you, thank you for saving me, Masked Man…"
At the deserted seaside.
The rescued mermaid thanked Carl timidly.
However, her way of addressing him surprised Carl.
"Masked Man? What the hell is this?"
Carl was dumbfounded. He had no idea when he had gotten such a nickname.
The mermaid explained with a slightly red face.
"Lord Masked Man, the news of you saving my people has spread throughout Fishmen Island.
I just wanted to come here to see you, but I was accidentally caught by a slave trader…"
At this point, the mermaid's face turned even redder. It was obvious that she was the one who did this. Otherwise, she would not have been captured.
Carl didn't say anything. He just gently rubbed her head and smiled.
"It's okay. It's good that you're safe now. However, I advise you not to come here. If I'm not here today, you'll really become a slave.”
"Yes, yes, I understand, Masked Man Lord. I will stay at home obediently and never come out again.
But can I ask, are you a human or a murloc? Why did you come to save us?"
"What are you asking…"
Carl couldn't help but laugh. Then, he stroked the mermaid's hair.
"Of course I'm a human, but you can rest assured that I won't discriminate against you, nor will I discriminate against other races.
In my eyes, all races can coexist peacefully, except for the Heavenly Dragon Race!”
Carl's tone became a little solemn when he mentioned the Heavenly Dragon people.
When the mermaid heard Carl's words, she shrank back and nodded.
"I understand. Although I still want to chat with Masked Man, I should go back. Otherwise, my family will be worried about me. Thank you for saving me.”
The mermaid thanked him again and jumped into the sea.
The mermaid was very fast in the water. In the blink of an eye, she disappeared from Karl's sight.
Carl shook his head and looked around. There were many navy soldiers searching the area.
They were obviously looking for the ferocious beast that killed the Heavenly Dragon people.
Carl didn't plan to stay there for long, so he left the beach.
A moment later, he returned to his room and used his ability to destroy all the tools.
Whether it was his clothes or his iron sword, they were all turned into a pile of powder.
This way, even if someone suspected him, they would not be able to find any evidence.
"Carl, come out for a moment!"
Carl, who had just put on his clothes, replied subconsciously when he heard Pisa calling him.
"I'll get dressed and go out immediately!”
A moment later, Carl walked out of the room and saw Pisa's serious face.
"What's wrong with Major General Pisa? Your expression is so serious. Did something happen?”
"Something really big happened. A Heavenly Dragon person was killed in front of the auction house!
Speaking of which, you've been in your room all afternoon. You didn't go out, did you?”
"What are you talking about? If I don't stay in my room, where else can I go?
I have no enmity with this Heavenly Dragon person. I can't go out and find trouble with him, right?”
Carl shrugged and put on a 'you're kidding' expression, pretending to be innocent.
Hearing Carl's denial, Pisa heaved a sigh of relief and patted him on the shoulder.
"That's enough. Since this incident was my dereliction of duty, the higher-ups did not give me any chance to investigate. They directly demoted my military rank and sent me back to the headquarters to be punished.
Your transfer order hasn't come yet, so I hope that before the new commander arrives, you can behave yourself for a while and don't go out and run around.
I'm not sure if the person who replaced me is as easy to talk to as me.”
Pisa said earnestly, which made Carl respect him.
He didn't expect that Pisa would be demoted just because he killed a Heavenly Dragon.
This was something he had not expected.
More importantly, Pisa was still so concerned about him before he left.
Carl was a little touched, so he nodded solemnly and replied,""Don't worry, I definitely won't run around these few days!”
It was only limited to these few days!
Carl added silently in his heart.
Pisa shook his head helplessly as if he had seen through Carl's thoughts.
"Forget it. I can't control you anyway. I just hope that the person who replaced me can catch the murderer of the Heavenly Dragon people.
Otherwise, I might have to give away half of the Bailey that I've saved up for more than ten years to avoid the punishment from the Heavenly Dragon people…"
"My money!"
Pisa wanted to cry but had no tears. He looked a little haggard.
Carl's mouth twitched when he saw Pisa's expression.
"You're worried about your Bailey. With your ability, isn't it easy to make money?”
"Yes, it's easy to make money, but it's very difficult to make legal money.
Other than Chambord Islands, where else can I go to kill fat sheep like the Heavenly Dragons?”
Pisa was a little excited. When he talked about money, his eyes became sharper.
Carl saw the look in his eyes and couldn't help but shiver. He smiled and agreed.
" The Heavenly Dragon people are rich and powerful. They are indeed a good mobile treasury…"
"That's right! My treasury is gone just like that. It won't be so easy to earn money in the future…
You must not be like me. If you offend the Heavenly Dragon people because of something, you must find someone to take the blame. You must not be hated by them!
I was really unlucky this time. I didn't expect a masked man to appear on the Chambord Islands.
Don't let me know who this bastard is, or I'll skin him alive and pull out his tendons!
He actually dared to cut off my source of wealth. I will definitely make him wish he was dead!”
Pisa's entire body was emitting a chilling killing intent.
Carl couldn't help but feel apprehensive.
This was the first time he had seen such a pizza.
It had to be said that a person who loved money was suddenly cut off. It was indeed similar to killing him!
Therefore, Carl decided to hide the fact that he disguised himself as a masked man in his heart forever and not let anyone know!
However, he did not expect that he would become so famous in just five days.
This made him a little puzzled. Who was promoting him?
"Major General Pisa, I would like to ask you about the masked man you mentioned just now.
I don't think I've heard of such a person before. Is he a pirate?”
"No, Masked Man is not a pirate. He is a good person, but he is also a demon!
This guy had saved many slaves and even killed a Heavenly Dragon person. Therefore, he was a good person and a hero!
However, he cut off my source of wealth and made me return to the headquarters to be punished. Therefore, he is a demon!”
Pisa stared at Carl and grabbed her shoulder.
"Carl, I'm giving you one last mission under the orders of my superior!
Help me find Masked Man and beat him up! But don't catch him, just beat him to death!”
"Did you hear that!"
"Yes! Sir!"
