Poseidon is very considerate, and experienced crew members observed that the weather will be good in the next period of time, so there will be many ships going out to sea.
The captain, who was so dirty that he smelled sour, was named Jones. He owned a five-masted ship and twenty-six cannons.
"Our ship is unsinkable. Our ship has sunk one hundred and twenty mermaids. Our ship is invincible in the world."
The crew shouted neat chants and wiped the deck to make it shine.
There was no cargo to be transported, and there was no big net for fishing. Even a fool would know that he was on a pirate ship.
"I knew it a long time ago, look at the way you lead!"
Not to mention Charles's noble status, even the knighthood, made him unable to accept walking with a group of criminals, and the other knights didn't look too good either.
If they hadn't asked for help from others, they would have really wanted to draw their swords and purify these villains.
"This is the land of Zhen Xi Mo. Does it make any difference who you choose?"
Downton's words pushed back all doubts. This is a chaotic era, and strength is the only criterion for measuring kindness.
"Hmph, keep your eyes open. Whoever is spying on the young lady will be drowned in the sea and fed to the fishes!"
Downton pressed.
"you……"
Just as a crew member was about to speak, Downton snapped his fingers.
With a bang, a ball of flames burst into flames, engulfing the crew but not burning anything else.
Zhi! Zhi!
The holy flame, like a magnet, is attracted to the dirty and ugly souls of those crew members, and wants to spread out and purify them.
"Your Excellency Li Ang, I will discipline them well, please be merciful."
Jones spoke.
"Have mercy!"
"Have mercy!"
A colorful macaw stood on Jones's shoulder, imitating its owner's tone.
"There will be no second time, take care of them."
Downton warning.
The captain stayed with him with a smile, but when he turned around, his expression turned ferocious, "Just bear with it a little longer. When they reach the ocean area, it will be impossible for them to jump off the ship and swim back!"
The fortune teller's name was Carrie, a very girly name. With her guiding the way, Jones couldn't even take some other routes.
"Captain, we found a ship ahead. It is an ocean-going cargo ship."
The lookout shouted excitedly, it was obviously a ship that had drifted over after a storm. This kind of ship had almost lost its resistance and was just like a big fat sheep.
"Thank you Poseidon!"
The crew prayed.
"Humph, Poseidon will not bless evildoers."
Ciel sneered.
"You are wrong. Poseidon is fair. She brings hurricanes, she unleashes torrential rains. Death belongs to everyone. Only the ships that are the most weather-resistant can win her favor."
The first mate retorted and blew the battle horn.
The crew opened the gun doors, pulled out their scimitars, took the hook locks, and stood beside the ship's side, ready to step on the ship's side at any time.
"I will give you ten times the price of the loot you can grab, and let them go."
Twilight spoke. With her righteous character, she did not kill these pirates immediately, purely for the sake of national justice.
"Only the wine you grab is the most delicious." Jones refused and stood on the bow of the ship. He waved his scimitar forward and said, "Boys, leave no one behind!"
These morale-boosting words made the crew's fighting spirit boil instantly.
Twilight wanted to persuade her again, but Downton stopped her.
"what are you doing?"
For the first time, Twilight was angry at Downton. She couldn't watch innocent people being slaughtered, but soon she understood the reason why the other party stopped her.
Not because of cold blood, but because this cargo ship is full of dead people.
"Really boring."
Not being able to experience the fight and cut off the enemy's head made the pirates quite unhappy, and they didn't have much energy to rummage through the boxes.
"I'm sorry, I misunderstood you."
Twilight apologized.
"Bear it a little longer!"
Downton patted Twilight on the shoulder. He knew that this kind girl did not want to stay on the Dutchman for a moment longer.
Twilight, who had nowhere to vent, began to swing her sword. From preparation, starting position, to the end, every movement was meticulous. This serious gesture reminded Downton of the first time they met in the backyard of the hotel.
The scene when Di Lan is snowing.
"Hey, little girl, do you dare to have a fight with me?"
A sailor jumped onto the deck.
"Hello!"
This was too rude, and the knights wanted to teach him a lesson, but Twilight stopped him.
"please!"
As long as it's a duel, even if the opponent is a maggot, Twilight will maintain the etiquette of a warrior.
The sailors began to make noises and even bet on the outcome, but the bets were not finished yet, and the sailor was defeated with just one blow.
"I come!"
The bosun stood out. Among the crew, he had the best martial arts skills, but he was still defeated with one blow.
"This eldest lady is a battle master?"
Jones came closer and was shocked by Twilight's martial arts skills.
"What kind of eyesight? He is obviously a half-step war god, okay?"
Ciel rolled his eyes.
"How is that possible? How old is she?"
Jones can't.
"The battles she has experienced are more cruel and numerous than yours."
A middle-aged knight lamented that since the eldest lady's parents were killed in battle, she has been on the front line in every battle.
"The eldest lady's parents can scare people to death if you tell them." Charles despised, "As for her two martial arts teachers, they are both gods of war."
"What? You think the God of War is just a cabbage!"
Jones didn't believe it.
There were some sailors who provoked Twilight, but most of them were obviously teasing, so she didn't take any action. She just burst out with a fierce force, scaring a group of sailors to the ground.
The journey was uneventful until one day after dinner, the sailors showed their fangs.
The battle quickly spread to the entire ship, but Jones obviously misjudged the strength of these knights and suddenly went into a killing spree. He didn't even take a single head. Instead, he was formed into a battle formation by the opponent and chopped down many people.
"Hang up the battle flag."
The knight chief roared, turning against the guests.
When the Holy Crown Lily's regimental flag fluttered on the sea, a certain type of pirate was dumbfounded. This was one of the strongest ace knights in the Western-Turkish coalition.
"The opportunity for liberation has come, brothers, kill!"
The expected surrender did not come, and the sailors attacked even more crazily.
The blood of those sailors who were chopped into pieces actually flowed backwards, and their corpses were reorganized and resurrected.
A stream of holy light was fired, but it had no effect on the sailors.
"They are not undead. They are the cursed living dead."
The knight captain reminded loudly.
"A bunch of trash, since they can't free us, then go die!"
Jones was holding a Krupp musket and was about to shoot Charles when a sword blade cut off his wrist.
"You want to die?"
Downton asked calmly, "I can help you!"
"Haha, are you kidding? This is the most vicious curse planted by Poseidon. Only the power of God can lift it."
Jones stared at Downton fiercely, "We have no sense of taste, smell, or touch. Drinking fine wine but not feeling the sweetness, hugging beautiful women but not feeling the warmth. We have had enough of this kind of life.
.”
"If you can't kill us, you will be killed!"
The sailors roared and rushed forward. These people had already become madmen. They lived just to wait for death.
call out!
A white-gold light arrow hit a sailor's chest. His whole body glowed like a firefly, and then gradually collapsed.
There are melodious hymns echoing.
Whoosh!
The sailors looked at Twilight.
An archangel with eight wings is suspended behind Twilight, wearing silver armor and a white helmet, holding a holy bow. Her long arrows can purify everything.
"Grant us death!"
The sailors howled and rushed over.
The knights quickly intercepted.
"When we get to the Temple of Dawn, I will redeem you."
These are also a bunch of poor people, Twilight sighed. She glanced at Downton, could he have discovered it a long time ago?
"real?"
Jones asked.
"When the time comes, you won't have to die even if you don't want to!"
Downton joked.
When living becomes a kind of pain, death becomes the only relief.
The Flying Holland will launch an attack as soon as it sees a ship, regardless of its origin.
A pirate ship escaped far away.
"Hmph, if I had chased it to the ends of the earth in the past, I would have sunk it."
Jones closed the telescope.
We have arrived at the Qianyu Islands. The water patterns here are very complicated, and if you are not careful, you will sink. Fortunately, this group of sailors are experienced and can always avoid danger.
"We will look for another half month at most. Regardless of whether we find the Temple of Dawn or not, you must fulfill your promise."
Jones didn't want to waste any more time.
"Don't you have any clue?"
Downton looked at the vast sea and could only sigh.
"The death of immortality."
Jones spoke.
"What?"
Charles was puzzled.
"Only those who are 'immortal to death' can land on the Island of Dawn."
Carrie explained.
"not understand."
A group of paladins looked at each other.
"Nonsense, if it were so easy to understand, the Temple of Dawn wouldn't have become one of the three mysterious legends of the Endless Sea. No one has set foot on it for thousands of years."
Jones doesn't give up any hope. He has lived for hundreds of years and has gained nothing.
Just when a group of people were speculating on the meaning of "immortal death", the fifth royal fleet of the Maki Demon Empire appeared on the sea level.
The shadows of sails are fluttering like trees and flags.
The traces of Twilight and his party were finally exposed.
"Ten, twenty, Male, thirty-two battleships, the Fifth Fleet is here!"
The first mate cursed.
All those coming were five-masted ships with hundreds of cannons, like a swarm of sharks, charging menacingly.
"Captain, we are surrounded."
shouted the lookout.
The enemy fleet obviously had clever means of detecting the enemy. They detected their tracks from a distance and set up a battle formation.
"Ready to fight."
Jones shouted, "No one can stop us from rushing to death!"
There were dark clouds in the sky, and the light dimmed.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The Fifth Fleet opened fire first.
"They are all Krupp artillery!"
Charles sighed with emotion when he saw the solid projectile flying over a thousand yards and exploding columns of water around the ship.
This was once Delankfur's exclusive weapon, killing countless evil god armies, but as the Holy War continued, many technologies were leaked.
There were bursts of gunfire, and as the distance got closer, the opponent's hit rate began to increase.
"Watch the cannonballs."
As soon as the first mate finished shouting, a cannonball was fired with a blast of wind. The moment it hit the mast, Downton jumped up and grabbed the cannonball in his hand.
boom!
Downton landed on the deck, then twisted his waist and swung his arms to throw the cannonball. (To be continued.)
