Raine has been delighted secretly at this time. It seemed that he had good luck. Avril will grow up a support that can save the day.

Next, Raine combed through Fancy's information.

The reasonable meal. This is easy, just spend a few pearls. And skills. Armin and Avril had said that the human-class sea auction house sold them. In the final analysis, it's all about money. As for the third point, equipment. Now Riane did not know how to get.

The easiest thing was to level them up.

"I thought about it. Now Arsan is at the first stage and level six. Onebear and Twobear are at the first stage and level seven. Next, we should make some money and upgrade you guys to the second stage!"

"As for the means to make money. Only one way we can earn a fortune, bounty missions!"

"We'll go to the Sicily Trading Market and ask Hades for a bounty mission!"

"Eh? Captain, how do you know my rank?" Arsan asked strangely.

"Yes, captain, we have not said our rank, how do you know?" Onebear and Twobear also looked curious.

"Captain, what about me? What level am I?"

"Captain, and me!" Fancy also looked at Raine eagerly.

"Woof woof!" White barked from the sidelines, trying to get Raine's attention.

"Cough... I am the captain. With my discerning eyes, can't I? Do I need you guys to tell? Avril, you are level two! Fancy, you... ahem, you still have work to do." Raine said stiffly, he can't check Fancy's information, "White, don't scream. Just you the most unproductive!"

The deceiving newbie pack. And that damn AI did even not say how White is going to upgrade before disappearing.

"Okay, don't ask. Let's go!"

........................

Seven days later, the Sicily Trading Market. Hades was standing on the deck smoking a cigarette and looking out over the sea.

"It's spring again. After winter, I guess pirate groups can not have a single pearl left on. And now for the transport peak in time. Many pirate groups must not sit down."

"Beika, are there any new bounty missions recently?"

"Captain, a new batch of bounty missions just came in. Supplies are getting tighter and tighter now, and there are more and more pirate groups." The one who answered Hades was one of Shobe's old men, Ensign Beika.

"What about the bounty corps? Have these bounty missions been sent to them? I don't want the area I manage always be haunted by pirates. I just want to muddle along at a leisurely pace." Hades spit out a smoke ring, looking at the smoke ring, he could not help but think of his friend and rival, "Shobe that guy borrowed me 500 pearls and ran off to the beast-class waters! I don't know if I can get this money back."

"Captain Hades, Lieutenant Shobe mortgaged me to you..." Said Beike with eyes red. Why he is the victim in the implicit deal between these two big bosses?

"Hahahaha, Beika, don't be aggrieved. Shobe considered you have a family. He doesn't want you to risk with him."

"But he took Rachel away," Beika said with tears in his eyes, his heart full of indignation.

"Rachel..." Hades replied, "his goal is the admiral. He is an ambitious guy. Beika, you are different, you do not like to fight and kill. You'd better help me well here, here is a bit idle but safe."

At this moment, a navy ran to Hades and reported, "Lieutenant Hades, Captain Avril, and the others are here."

"Oh? Finally showed up? What are they doing here?"

"T-They said they want to register for the bounty corps."

"Sign up for the bounty corps? Pfft~" Hades laughed, "Yea, they are indeed powerful. But just that small ship registers a bounty group? Is this too... too exaggerated. How do they fight when encounter pirate groups? Go ramming?"

"Lieutenant Hades, they seem to have changed a ship." The soldier interrupted the boss with some embarrassment.

"A new ship?"

"En, how about you go to see?"

Avril and others were sitting in some cabin inside the Charge at this time. They had come to collect the bounty mission, but they were not given. The staff said that only bounty corps could receive the bounty missions.

So they came to register the bounty group.

Not long after, Hades walked into the cabin.

"Avril how are you guys." Hades came up and offered to shake hands.

Thinking of Shobe saying that this guy was rather horny, Avril chose to bow slightly, "Hello Lieutenant Hades. Why are you here in person."

The Onebear shook Hades' hand straightly. Hades froze, wondering what the hell these guys were up to.

That was not the point.

Hades sat down, "Don't be polite, have a seat. Gee, actually, well. I do appreciate you guys very much. By the way, Avril, is this your new crew member?"

"Yeah, Lieutenant Hades, we're here to sign up for the bounty corp." Avril and the others all sat down.

"Bounty Corps, ah, well, Avril, although I appreciate you guys, there is a threshold for registering a bounty corps. At least you need five ships, and the main ship is a 30-meter sub-G class gunship."

Avril frowned, "But we only have one ship..."

"That's right. Avril. Actually, if you're willing to join my..."

Avril interrupted Hades, "Lieutenant Hades, so what if we have the strength to defeat a fleet?"

Hades frowned, he had no chance to say his recruitment plan.

Well, forget it, it is better to talk to them properly, and let them perish the thought.

"If you really have the strength, no problem. After all, the number of ships is only one of the parameters, not a necessary condition. What we require is still combat power." Hades continued, "Only, are you sure you have the strength to defeat a fleet? You know, what I say defeat, I mean defeat head-on, not using any circuitous tactics. If you can defeat five ships head-on, I will allow you to form a bounty corp."

"What kind of five ships?" Avril asked.

"Minimum configuration. Three Carthaginian warships, not less than 15 meters in length. A Greek three-row oars warship, not less than 20 meters. And a Portuguese light gunship equipped with a minimum of 10 guns, not less than 30 meters."

After saying that, Hades smiled and looked at these people.

In the beginning, Avril did sink nine ships. But the ships were sunk one by one, and these guys used the complex environment at the time.

And now the five ships he listed can already form a relatively substantial combined combat power. With melee, jamming, and long-range, just on Avril them a ship, it is impossible to win.

Who knows Avril took a long breath of relief, and several other crew members also smiled.

"Okay okay, it's not demanding."

"Yeah, we just happen to have 10 guns, just right to meet."

Hades was astonished. Why did these people look so relaxed? They can meet this condition?

Impossible!
