Chapter 118: Pirates
Two months later.
South of Blue Whale Town, on the endless sea.
The sea breeze is howling, the waves are rolling, sea birds are circling in the sky, and sea fish occasionally jump out of the water.
A ship with huge barbs and iron thorns hanging around the hull sailed slowly on the sea.
At this time, it has been half a month since Willy led 120 guards to Blue Whale Town. During this half month, Willy saw the ocean of this world for the first time. Like the previous life, it is vast and boundless, and it seems to be a vastness that can accommodate everything.
As the reinforcements invited by Baron Enton, Willy also fulfilled his obligations responsibly. In just half a month, he had already sniped the pirates who had come to raid Blue Whale Town many times on the sea.
Indeed, as Jarvis said before, the shortage of food in a cold winter has made the pirates in a state of almost crazy greed, and they will even be brave and not afraid of death when fighting. The most decisive aspect of survival.
But in the face of these pirates, Willy has never been soft-hearted.
Their goal is to burn, kill, loot, and kill these people without any psychological burden. If the legendary Hanged Man comes, they will definitely be punished more severely.
On the ship going forward in the sea, Willy stood on the deck and looked at the seascape in the distance.
He was dressed in light armor as always, with a swift sword on his waist, and he looked tall and handsome.
"Captain, when will we return?"
Dan, who was also wearing light armor, stepped forward and said to Willy.
As Willy's most trusted subordinates, Dahn and Sandor can play an important role at critical moments.
When Willy came to Blue Whale Town this time, Sandor was basically handling government affairs for him. As for Dahn, he personally followed Willy to Blue Whale Town to help him manage the 120 guards under his command.
"In half an hour, if no enemy is found, we will return."
Willie responded.
Since he came to Blue Whale Town, Willy has been patrolling the sea for two or three hours every day during the day.
"understood."
Dahn nodded.
On this ship, only Willy and Dan are from Diamond Town, and the rest of the nearly twenty crew members are guards under Baron Enton of Blue Whale Town.
The reason for this is that the guards of Diamond Town, after trying, found that they could not maintain their combat effectiveness at sea. The specific reason was seasickness.
Generally, people who have not lived by the sea since childhood will experience a strong sense of discomfort when they first experience the sailing of a ship. Mild symptoms of nausea and dizziness may occur, and in severe cases, physiological reactions such as vomiting and tearing may occur.
The reason why Willy and Dahn are not affected is because their own physiques are very good.
"Ok?"
Willy's eyes suddenly showed a hint of caution when he looked into the distance. He turned to Dahn and instructed: "To the southwest, there are abnormal ships approaching, prepare for battle."
Dahn couldn't see that far, but after hearing Willy's order, he reacted instantly, he turned around and shouted at the crew on board: "There is an abnormal ship approaching, prepare for battle! "
After receiving Dahn's order, the sailing guards in Blue Whale Town did not delay in the slightest. They tidied up their armor in an instant, took the triangular fork, and got ready.
When they were assigned to Willy's subordinates, they were warned to obey orders. Therefore, in the face of Willy's command, there will be no slack.
"It's a pirate ship, that's right..."
As the speeding ship was approaching, Willy also determined that the abnormal ship was the ship of the pirates.
Although there is no pirate flag hanging on it, the ship is mottled, surrounded by barbs, and there is a sharp thick iron thorn on the bow. Based on these alone, their identities can be determined.
"coming!"
As the pirate ship approached, Dahn also saw the entire face of the ship.
I saw a few shabby, unkempt men standing at the bow of the boat, holding harpoons and wooden sticks with blades in their hands, and their eyes were full of greed and fierceness. They are either rogues, or descendants of fugitives living in harsh environments. They have experienced all kinds of hardships and competitions, and they have no mercy in their hearts.
This pirate ship is the most typical small looting team, and it has always only selected relatively weak coastal territories to plunder.
Their method is extremely simple and rude. After landing, the pirates rush directly to the coastal villages or villages, kill the blockers directly, and then get food and small poultry and livestock on the boat at the fastest speed before the guards arrive. . Some people even plunder women and children as tools and cannon fodder for the pirates to inherit the lineage.
"Wait! Stop! Turn around now! Quick!"
Standing on the bow of the pirate ship, a bald man who looked like the leader of the pirate ship suddenly shouted.
His eyesight is not as good as Willy's Until just now, the bald man discovered that an armed ship was rapidly approaching them.
"Hurry up!"
While urging the panicked helmsman, the bald man broke into a cold sweat.
The cruising guards are their most hated enemies. Those guys are not only well-equipped and have professional combat methods, but also never let go of their pirates.
Once they are caught up by these people, it is bound to be a dead end.
Although what he did was to lick blood with a knife, no one wanted to be killed.
"Hurry up!"
Dahn ordered loudly.
He had already seen the pirate ship's intention to escape.
For these guys, we must kill them all. Otherwise, they will find new opportunities for another attempted looting.
The armed ship accelerated again, and the distance from the pirate ship was getting closer and closer.
They are regular guards, and these pirates are basically a mob, and their equipment is not at the same level.
"I'm catching up..."
The bald man's forehead was densely covered with beads of sweat. The other twenty or so pirates on the boat were also infected by the bald man's nervousness, and everyone was a little panicked.
"There's no need to run away, everyone has their weapons ready to resist!"
The bald man gave the order.
He knew very well that once he was caught up while fleeing, a boat of people with fear in their hearts would be taken down by the other party.
Instead of doing this, it's better to cheer up your subordinates first, so that they are ready to fight.
It would be even better if the opponent could be traumatized and give up tracking. Even if you can't, in the panic, you can have the opportunity to jump into the sea. If you are lucky, maybe there is still a chance.
