Act 163 The Pirate Bay

Gray-white cliffs stand tall in the mist. Such scenery can often be seen in the fjords around Sopalachi, like silent giants standing on the seashore, with ships passing under their feet. They are so small and scary.

The wind is a bit cold. It's not the shivering chill after the autumn dusk in the fir tree, but the biting low temperature, because this is the south of the great glacier. When people talk about the great glacier, they always change their expressions.

The wind howled at the top of the canyon, making a whistling sound like a ruler scraping across rags. The sky above the fjord was covered with dark clouds, making people feel like the sky was about to fall at any moment.

Logically speaking, in such bad weather, the fog should have been blown away long ago. But the wind is pouring straight into the fjord, and the fog from outside keeps pouring in. Instead, the clouds and fog on the strait are billowing, as if there is no stopping moment.

.

The fleet set off from Gusair and arrived in Sopalachi in three or four hours. Because the fog was coming from the north, it had to take shelter in the fjord in advance. The terrain in the Sopalachi fjord is complex.

After traveling through the winding strait for almost half an hour, it was no longer clear what was going on.

As for the pirate's hiding place, it's even more unclear.

Brando was not in a hurry, and used the line of law to scan the surrounding fjords over and over again, carefully searching for the clues he wanted. Soon, he found an unusual place. A quarter of an hour later, the fleet appeared

There it is.

It is an in-bay canyon with its own world within. The 90-degree angle at the entrance blocks the wind outside, making this wide water area seem a bit quiet, with a little mist floating on the water, like a veil.

There is a huge hole in the depths of this inner fjord. The hole is connected to the sea and can actually allow ships to navigate. In addition, it is located deep in the fjord, which is very secretive and suitable for pirates to hide. If he hadn't put his extreme

It is spread out across the plain, and ordinary people cannot find it at all.

When the three ships slowly sailed into the inner gorge and passed through the mist, they saw the huge cave entrance hanging alone on the cliff. Everyone couldn't help but look at this man from Egypt with both respect and admiration.

The Earl of Luin.

This journey was not without thrills, but Brando led them to break out of the siege of Gusair first, and then took out the mythical wealth and boldly 'burned it'. He just let the fleet sail against the wind, and before morning

Arriving in Sopalachi.

Then he decisively ordered the fleet to avoid the fjord in advance, and single-handedly led them to break through the fog and arrived at this place. Seeing that the pirates' hiding place was right in front of them. Even if they were on the hostile side,

Instalong and Tagus couldn't help but cheer for each other.

"Madara is not unable to tolerate a noble from another country. My lord, if you are willing to surrender to His Majesty, Eruin will remain the same."

I don’t know how many times Instalong has said this in Brando’s ear.

Brando stood at the bow of the ship, looked back at him with a smile, shook his head and said: "Can you promise this, and I have no intention of becoming the King of Eruin, I will have a good talk with your Majesty,

But it’s still unclear who will take the lead.”

Instaron sighed. Once these two people meet up, things will probably be unpredictable.

But even if Madara has one more outstanding dark noble, that would be good. Subconsciously, he no longer regards Brando as a person on the same level as himself, but regards him as the person holding the mercury staff.

existence is comparable.

However, he still didn't expect Brando to have any chance. He had no doubt in his mind about the rise of the Dead Moon Country, and in another time and space, it was indeed the same.

The three ships slowly sailed into the cave, and the surrounding light suddenly dimmed. Adni's knights lit torches, and under the flickering firelight, everyone discovered that the cave was extremely wide and had a wide and deep passage.

The water channel plunges into the depths of darkness, surrounded by smooth limestone cave walls. The cave is thirty to fifty feet high. Countless stone stalactites hang densely overhead.

Brando and Tagus originally planned to risk the ship running aground, but they didn't expect that this waterway is very good, with a deep draft, and it looks like a natural harbor. Although the throughput may be smaller,

But it is also extremely rare as an anchorage. God knows how the pirates discovered this place in the first place.

The light of the torch slowly advanced as the ship moved forward, illuminating the surrounding dark cave walls. I don't know what kind of metal was mixed in the limestone of the cave walls, but it actually reflected a clear yellow light.

But this deep waterway has an end after all. Soon, they saw a small inlet that could park one or two boats. There seemed to be a simple pier at the other end of the inlet, and a crooked wooden trestle was built into the deep water.

, connected to the shore.

There was no ship in the pier at the moment, and no trace of pirates could be seen. This made the knights who had weapons in hand ready to fight breathe a sigh of relief, but they were a little unwilling to be chased all the way from Gusair.

Like a lost dog, the enemy cannot see it at all.

This is obviously very frustrating for these masters in their respective fields who have the dignity of masters. The masters on the side of truth are considered masters in any aspect. For such a group of people to gather together as mercenaries, only A

Ms. Deni figured out that they would rather have a hearty fight.

Even if you lose, it's okay.

The result was good, in the end not even the pirates were touched.

The pirates did not anchor the ship in the port, which means they did not settle here. This is not surprising. After all, this is just a hiding place, not their lair. It is like the kind of temporary anchorage often used by smugglers.

, they will occasionally stop in those places when storms come, but they will not stay there permanently.

Everyone felt a sense of loss, but it was actually just a psychological effect. After all, if they could refrain from taking action, no one would be willing to take action except for fanatical militants.

The two ships entered the port one after another, and the Gui Che clan's large ship had been left outside, because no matter how big the cave was, it could not accommodate such a large armed merchant ship.

There is a layer of mist hanging in the cave, just like the inner fjord outside, but much better than outside the fjord. The fleet in the mist has almost spread throughout the Wagtail Strait at this moment. Brando has been with

I have never seen so many people who lost their names in my entire life, let alone other people.

After the boat stopped, everyone got off the boat one by one. Then Tagus ordered the skeleton soldiers on the boat to drill through the boat and let them sink themselves here to prevent them from being used by outsiders. The first group of skeleton soldiers who landed in the boat had already come out.

Now that they have reached the passage at the other end of the cave, there is no need for these boats. Tagus and Brando do not expect to wait until the fog outside dissipates before continuing to go out to sea by boat, not to mention that it is not necessarily safe even dozens of miles away from the shore.

Only by reaching the true inland area can we completely avoid the march of the Nameless Ones.

This is also the reason why they did not directly forcibly land from other places. After landing, they had to open up a road along the wilderness. Maybe they would run into the marching route of the Nameless One at some point. Since there are pirates here

If it is our landing point, then there must be a safe and easy land route behind it, otherwise this place will be regarded as a safe haven at best, not a temporary nest.

As for whether sinking the ship would cause any trouble to the people behind, Brando has never considered this issue. Why should he think so carefully about the pirates? As for Tagus, he even disdains to consider this.

Even if the undead may reopen this port in the future, they still have the means to salvage the sunken ship. As for the pirates, what will they do?

Who cares?

After everyone got off the boat, the cave seemed a little cramped. After all, in addition to Brando, Delphine, Huanghuo and his group, there were two squadrons of skeleton soldiers and a group of low-level soldiers on the two Madara armed smuggling boats.

Corpse witches are usually kept under the cabin, acting as ballast stones with Madara characteristics. They are only released when there is a battle or when landing is required.

In addition to the skeleton soldiers, there are also more than ten sailors on the armed merchant ship of Gui Che. In addition to the two elders and their servants, Fang Qi's subordinates and servants, counting down, there are two or three.

As many as ten people.

Adni and her knights were another group. Suddenly, there were more than a hundred people in the pirate's hideout. It was obviously not big for this small place to appear less cramped.

possible.

Tagus divided a squadron and a half of skeleton soldiers (the other half of the squadron was lost in Gusair) into two groups. One group opened the way in front and continued to serve as cannon fodder, and three corpse witches were responsible for commanding them, while the other group was larger in number.

The first group stayed behind, not to prevent anything, but mainly to serve as a warning. If they encounter the unknown person later, they can at least detect it in advance. In essence, they are still cannon fodder.

The sailors of Gui Che are naturally prisoners at this time, but ordinary sailors have no one to care about them. The servants of the two elders of Gui Che have considerable strength, so of course they are taken care of by the knights under Adni.

, Brando also paid for this, and the female knight could not be more satisfied with Brando, a generous employer.

Only the two elders of the ghost car made Brando and Tagus feel a little troublesome. After all, they were still masters of the extreme realm (although they only had half of their feet in the extreme realm). Even if Deputy Marshal Blanc

Go and monitor, problems may arise if you are not careful.

Those two people had obviously suffered a lot in the past few days. They had been locked in the bottom cabin with skeletons and corpse witches, and the food they ate was not even as good as pig and dog meat. This was not because Tagus was deliberately treating them slowly, but at sea.

The food the sailors can only eat is like this. It is impossible for the undead to prepare a cook specifically for the two prisoners. That is the treatment only Brando and Delphine have. (To be continued.)
