He took the letter on the desk, opened the door, and a rush of damp heat came towards him, and dark clouds rushed over from all directions, stacking piles upon piles.

"It looks like there will be a heavy rain tonight."

After muttering to himself, he closed the door, made sure it was locked, and walked down the stairs quickly.

When he came home last night, he found a letter at the door. It was stuffed through the crack of the door. It was Mrs. Rosa's housekeeper. Because he couldn't wait for him, he stuffed the letter into the crack of the door.

The letter said that he hoped that he would have time to have afternoon tea together.

It is estimated that Mrs. Rosa is thinking, because of the last robbery incident to give Alvin an explanation, or because of his article published in the newspaper.

For Mrs. Rosa, Alvin still respected her very much, so he wrote back, saying that he had something to do recently and that he would officially come to visit next time.

6:30.

The sky was covered with clouds like lead, which were getting denser and denser, pressing down on the roof.

Alvin stepped out of the rental carriage and felt a sultry breeze.

"The rain is coming."

Looking up at the sky, he cautiously put on his hood and walked into the Warrior and the Sea Bar.

As soon as he opened the door of the bar, he stepped in and saw Mr. Williams. Today, he did not stay in his usual room, but sat at the bar.

Somewhat surprisingly, the other party did not make any disguise.

Originally wanted to go up and say hello to the other party, but found Mr. Williams at the bar, shaking his head slightly at him.

Alvin understood, paused, looked around, and found that there were several people sitting in the bar.

I knew in my heart, "These people may all come to the party."

He moved his footsteps, found a corner and sat down, observing the crowd.

There were about five or six people, and they couldn't tell whether they were male or female. Either he was wearing a big hood, or he was wearing a mask, and they were all silent.

Outside the bar, the wind was blowing more and more fiercely. After a while, the sound of the wind, huh, huh, could be heard inside the house. The heavy door of the bar all opened and closed slightly.

After waiting for a while, the two of them came in again. They were soaked all over and looked a little embarrassed.

As time passed by, Alvin's thoughts diverged a little. "Is the meeting place right here?"

Just when he could hardly sit still, Williams in the bar stood up and said:

"The time is up, no wait, let's go."

Alvin also got up with everyone, waited for Williams, put on a raincoat, and led everyone out of the bar.

The door of the bar opened, and in an instant, the wind was mixed with rain, and it floated in.

Alvin, who was walking at the end, saw this situation and was afraid that the hood would be blown off by the strong wind, so he decisively took out the mask and put it on.

Quickly walked out of the bar, a trackless public carriage stopped at the door, Williams and everyone quickly passed through the rain screen and boarded the carriage.

The sound of thunder, rain, and wind outside the car window mixed together, and it seemed as if the sky was about to collapse.

"The rain in the coastal cities is really terrible."

Alvin sat in his seat and looked at Lightning outside the window and complained in his heart.

"But shouldn't the gatherings of the original Beyonders be sneaky and leave no traces? Then there are people like yourself who swaggered in the public carriage to attend. I don't know if they thought they were going to a masquerade party."

There was a flash of silence in the carriage, except for the sound of wind, rain and thunder outside, the sound of horses hooves stepping on the road, and the wheels turning.

After driving for more than 20 minutes, the carriage stopped. Because it was dark and rainy outside, Alvin knew exactly where he was, but he only knew that at the beginning, the carriage was heading east.

The carriage seemed to be parked in a dock warehouse. Williams opened the door and walked down first, and everyone also got up and followed.

There was a fifteen-meter sailboat in the warehouse. Williams walked to the wooden boat and said:

"From now on, you can just come here every Thursday, until this kind of gathering is over and you return to your previous state."

He paused and glanced around, then said:

"You should all know that the meeting place this time is at sea. I will take you to the place by boat, and then bring you back. The boat fee is 10 pounds per person. Is there any problem?"

"I don't know. The location is at sea? A small island? But it's stormy outside. It's really okay to go out to sea now? Is the irritable brother so arrogant?"

Alvin glanced at the sky with lightning and thunder outside, and couldn't help swallowing.

"Of course we believe in your character, Captain, otherwise you wouldn't be here."

A person standing at the front of the crowd said with a clearly lowered voice.

"Since everyone agrees, let's board!" Williams said when he saw that no one had withdrawn.

The eight people began to board the boat in an orderly manner, each handing Williams a 10-pound note when they boarded.

Alvin looked at the ship, and there was obvious shaking in the waterway of the warehouse. He didn't know what the scene would be like when he appeared outside. Thinking of this, his face turned pale under the mask.

Seeing that everyone else got on the boat one after another, Alvin gritted his teeth. Since Mr. Williams dares to go to sea at night in this weather, he must be sure.

Without hesitation, he stepped forward slowly, took out 10 pounds from his shirt pocket and handed it to Williams.

"This time it's free." The other party shook his head and said softly.

Alvin passed the plank and got on the boat.

Watching the ship slowly make its way out of the warehouse waterway and into the dark sea, a flash of lightning flashed across the sky, as if the sky was cut in half.

Looking at the warehouse that was gradually receding, and feeling the swaying ship, to be honest, he felt a little regretful.

Everyone in the cabin seems to have experienced such a thing, and they don't seem to be very nervous.

"Could it be that Mr. Williams' party was at sea before?" Seeing the scene, Alvin was somewhat certain.

The boat is like a leaf in the sea, and it floats like a wave. It can't find itself at all, like a ghost in the dark night.

In such an environment, there was no way to determine the location of the party. Fortunately, the boat stopped shortly after.

Williams greeted everyone out of the cabin, and everyone appeared in the swaying bow position against the wind and rain, but fortunately they were all Beyonders, their physical fitness looked good, and there was no case of falling.

What caught Alvin's eyes was a large sailboat, standing on Williams' boat, looking up from the bottom, a huge hull dozens of meters long, the sea water surging at the bottom of the boat, and there was no obvious shaking of the big boat. It is not far from the shore and the waves are not big.

I was used to seeing giant steel ships before, and it was so shocking to observe the ships with strong characteristics of this era at close range.

The chimney and the sail stand side by side, and there are several guns and corresponding gun positions on both sides of the ship.

"There." Williams pointed to the soft ladder that was lowered from the big ship and shouted to the crowd.

Everyone understood, approached the ladder carefully, and slowly climbed up.

Alvin followed the ladder to the deck of the big ship. The first feeling was that it was stable. A big ship is a big ship.

Seeing that someone was on the deck to meet them, everyone moved closer.

In the aisle, everyone cleaned up the rain a little bit, maybe they arrived at their destination, and to relax, he heard someone scolding in a low voice:

"Damn the weather."

Now he is very fortunate that he had prepared a raincoat in advance, otherwise he would be a **** like most people.

After a while, everyone followed the **** and came to a bright hall.

It looked like a large restaurant before, but it has been slightly changed into a venue for gatherings, and there are already many people sitting in it.

Some of them cover up their appearance in various ways, such as relying on hoods and masks, while others don't care and bare their facial features calmly.

Judging from the fact that their clothes were all wet, they should have just arrived not long ago.

Alvin found an inconspicuous corner seat and sat down, waiting for the party to start.

At the same time ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ on the outside deck, Williams also began to climb the ladder after securing the boat.

"Hey, old William." A familiar voice penetrated Williams' ears through the sound of wind and rain.

Facing the heavy rain, he raised his head and saw a man with deep features, rough outline, bronze skin and dark blue hair, reaching out to him.

Williams grinned, grabbed the palm, and jumped directly onto the deck with a forceful foot.

Neither side cared at all, the rain on the other side directly brought a bear hug to the other side.

"As soon as I saw your "Lie Langqi", I knew it must be you." Alger said with a smile.

"I thought you had already sailed on that ghost ship, but I didn't expect to meet you here today." Williams took off his raincoat and hood, touched the rain on his face, and asked.

"The sanctuary temporarily assigned me a task, and I will probably leave the day after tomorrow. After I know there is a party here, I will try my luck here and see if I can buy a magical item that suits my heart." Alger tidyed up his clothes and put on his hood. , replied.

"You're still so cautious." Williams said with a smile looking at Alger's actions.

"Driving at sea, being cautious can make me live longer." Regarding Williams' joke, he said disapprovingly, this is his style of doing things.

The two walked and talked, walked into the aisle together, and walked towards the hall.
