Chapter 473: Rules of Pirates
"Ahead, it should be a normal inhabited island, right?"
Murray asked while looking at it. The outline of an island appeared in front of it, and it seemed to be quite large. After approaching it, the number of seabirds increased significantly.
"Nonsense, of course!" Pu'er raised his paw and pointed to another direction in the distance, "Look, isn't there a boat over there!"
Murray wondered: "But I think those ships look a bit strange, they don't look like cargo ships or warships."
"That's a pirate ship."
"Pirate Ship?"
"Yeah, meow, it seems that the young master of the Benda family who grew up in the Dinger region is not very familiar with this world."
Murray nodded, and said: "I haven't had time to watch the movie about pirates yet. I will study hard when I go back, because I found that I really like it here."
"If you're interested, there are a lot of books about sea adventures in the Allen family's study, basically derived from the notes of the family ancestors."
"Okay, thank you, I will borrow it."
"It's really because I was overly suppressed at home when I was a child, but now I like the sea." Pu'er joked, "To use Karen's tone, is it a vengeful 'life'?"
"Probably so." Murray didn't object, "I also feel that I prefer a life that doesn't follow the rules and templates."
Ventura, who was standing next to him, reminded in a low voice: "But, if it's a pirate ship, then the island in front is..."
"That's right, Pirate Island, a place where pirates use to exchange goods."
"Pirate Island..."
"What are you afraid of? Normally speaking, the strength of our team, regardless of artillery, is much stronger than ordinary pirates!" Pu'er was a little amused, "Now we expect the scale of this island to be large enough , Pirates are active enough, because it means that this island has the kind of teleportation circle for smuggling, which can directly bring us back to civilization from the sea."
Ventura worried: "Will there be?"
"Anywhere where darkness grows bigger, there must be light to support it."
Pu'er continued: "Of course, this is not the light of the Guangming God Sect, but in any larger venue, there will be churches, and they want to grab benefits.
If the scale of this pirate island is larger, for example, if some kind of pirate alliance is organized, then the island itself should have a configured and well-maintained teleportation circle. "
"How should we land on the island?" Murray asked, "Should we go directly to the island by sea beast, will it be too noticeable?"
"Not all pirate islands are full of pirates. Besides, there are not all pirates who ride sea beasts to become pirates. As for whether to hide something... I personally prefer to hide it first.
The main thing is that we have no way to send messages to the outside world now. Without the communication circle in hand, you don't know what the pirates will do. "
"How dare they offend the Cult of Order?"
"Of course not on the surface, but some of the pirates come to be pirates, you know, there is no guarantee that they have any strange original identities, and there is a high probability that they will have enmity with the Cult of Order.
Although there will be scum in your Religion of Order, it is undeniable that because of the Religion of Order, many people in the church circle have had to start obeying the rules for nearly a thousand years. ...Hmm, there must be a lot of pirates here. "
Karen, who just got up, finished washing with the sea water, and then asked while shaking his hands, "Has the discussion reached a result?"
"My suggestion is to send someone to the island to check the situation first." Pu'er said, "It would be best if you can use coupons to open the way, and you can use the communication circle; of course, if you can directly buy the teleportation law It would be better if you have the right to use the formation.”
"Then let's check the situation first, and don't go ashore with sea beasts, so that if something happens to the island, we can still have a pick-up point on the sea. Me, Murray, and Philomena go to the island to check. Alfred, you stay here to guard and be ready to respond at any time."
"Yes, sir."
"Yes, Captain."
Philomena walked over unexpectedly. She subconsciously thought that this was Karen's "goodwill" to her because of the exchange that night, and she was willing to accept her into the team. move.
It seems that whispering is useful.
It's just that this somewhat autistic girl with a split personality really made a mistake. Alfred, who always liked to accompany the young master and swore to protect him to the death, and Ventura, who was equally loyal to Karen, didn't have any objections to losing the election. Because they saw it, the young master chose the two most able to fight together.
The strength of the entire team is divided. Karen and Philomena are in the first echelon, and Murray is the leader of the second echelon.
"Captain, shall we dive over there?" Murray asked.
Karen pointed to a small pirate ship that was sailing towards the island in the distance, and said: "What do you waste all your energy on, just hitch a ride, grab it on the boat, and we'll sneak out and go ashore when we arrive at the port.
Alright, now I've changed the robes, and brought more signal flares and black paper for signaling. "
"Me and me!" Pu'er immediately recommended himself, "Pirate Island!"
"I'm afraid of danger." Karen said with a smile.
"I can swim."
"Have you ever swam since becoming a cat?"
"No... The conditions at home are not so bad that I need my cat to catch fish in the river, but I don't think I can drown... right?"
Karen really didn't want to take Pu'er with him, because it could be seen from a distance that those pirate ships had obviously been refitted, and they must have something to do with the church circle, not ordinary pirates;
Of course, if it is an ordinary pirate, then there is no need to go to this island, because it is impossible to have a communication circle and a teleportation circle.
However, Karen considered a problem, that is language.
Although the Maclean language family is widely used, God knows what language family is used in this place. To be on the safe side, it is better to bring this cat with you, at least it can be a translator cat.
After packing up and getting ready, it was almost dusk. The sea at dusk was beautiful, but Karen and the others didn't care to appreciate it. The three of them jumped into the sea directly.
After swimming for a certain distance, Karen turned around and couldn't see the sea beast and the house on its back, because Memphis and Mars had arranged a hidden formation on the sea beast. This should be regarded as the earliest "stealth warship" in this era. up.
Pu'er hugged Karen's neck, choked several saliva, and said dissatisfiedly:
"Why don't you use the Seagod Armor, meow!"
"When my physical fitness is better, I want to swim normally. Do you think I swam fast just now?"
"It's a mess."
"Ha ha."
You know, Karen still carries the sword of Achilles on his back.
"But if you don't use the Seagod Armor, I will be drowned by you."
Karen summoned the Seagod's Armor, and immediately formed a diaphragm around his body, pushing the seawater out.
Pu'er was able to breathe normally under the sea surface, but he was still not relieved, so he beat Karen's chest hard with his cat's paw a few times.
It's just that although the skin is soft, the cat's paws obviously have a "hard rebound", giving the illusion of slapping on the steel plate.
It's really hard, meow!
"I said Karen, when you absorbed the bone of God to improve your physical fitness, you didn't deliberately control your external performance, did you?"
"How to say?"
"Because I think you definitely don't like that muscular male style."
"No control."
"That's because the goddess likes your current style, and didn't want to turn you into a muscular man, the kind who can control the trembling of the chest muscles."
"Do you often see this kind of show?" Karen asked.
"You men are only allowed to watch beautiful women dance, but we can't watch men perform? There are also many female pirates, and there is demand for them. There will never be fewer such performances."
"It seems that you had a rich life before."
"Yeah, what haven't I seen? Meow, you know, that kind of performance, the man's little nipple head is tied with two wires, and then a weight is attached to it, and the reward will be increased. Bring it up, hehe, I have offered rewards before, but I left..."
"Snapped!"
"Ah, why did you hit me!"
"Quiet, we're almost there."
"Humph."
Karen, Philomena, and Murray all climbed onto the small pirate ship that had been selected in advance. After the three of them gave each other a wink, Karen climbed to the high place first.
As a result, a performance happened to be "observed".
This pirate ship is not big in size, and if it is fully loaded with sailors, there are usually only twenty people. There is only one old-fashioned magic crystal cannon, and the muzzle is still rusty... Karen failed to get out of the cannon when he climbed over the cannon. Feeling the breath of any spiritual energy fluctuations, it is estimated that this cannon is just a decoration.
In the middle of the boat, a well-dressed old man with a white beard and four young men were tied under the flagpole, and a big man stood beside him, holding a magic pistol in his hand and giving a speech.
Sure enough, the language they spoke was incomprehensible to Karen, and it was not a Maclean language, but it was clear from the scene that what was beginning at this time was a rebellion.
Pu'er whispered: "This is a very common thing among pirates. When the captain is old or incompetent and unable to continue to lead everyone to continue to harvest, new people will stand up to overthrow and replace him. Pirates are the people on the sea. The pack of wolves believes in this law of the survival of the strong."
"Perhaps we can change our plans."
There were only 20 people on the deck, and the ones standing beside the big man who were obviously shouting for the big man were only five people, and the remaining ten people stood timidly by the side.
This means that although the rebellion on this ship was "successful", the old captain still has prestige on this ship. After all, when the victory is already decided, there are still 10 people standing by the side without booing and cheering , is already an expression of a position.
Karen winked at Murray and Philomena beside him.
Murray nodded immediately, indicating that he knew.
Philomena also nodded, indicating that she knew, and then she was very anxious because she didn't understand what to know!
Karen grasped the hull with her right hand, took Pu'er out of her arms with her left hand, and let it sit on a wooden extension.
This pose seemed very powerful, a pose that Karen never thought he could do in his two lifetimes. He even exerted a little force with his palms to lift himself up, making it look like he was standing in the air normally.
Pu'er, who was sitting in a protruding position, looked at Karen with the "doting" of caring and naughty children in his eyes.
Karen pulled out the sword of Achilles on his back, and immediately jumped onto the deck.
This pirate ship has a built-in defensive formation, but at this time it is on the way back, and a "coup d'état" is still taking place, so it is naturally impossible to use any defensive formation.
Murray went up together, and Philomena followed after seeing this.
When she landed, she saw Karen and Muri rushing towards the pirates, and Philomena rushed up immediately, but she rushed in the direction of the group of 10 people standing there as spectators.
Obviously, she hadn't figured out the situation yet, but fortunately she was good at it, and when she noticed that both the captain and Murrie were rushing in the other direction, she immediately turned around.
"Enemy attack!"
The big man roared, and then he saw Karen coming in front of him.
A layer of water armor immediately condensed on the big man, giving Karen a familiar feeling. It should be the beggar's version of "Sea God's Armor". After all, after the collapse of the Sea God Sect, its inheritance has long been scattered.
Karen slashed straight up with a sword. With the power of the dark moon, this sword instantly broke through the defense of the big man. Before the big man had time to point the gun at Karen, the big sword smashed his entire body Cut in half in situ.
After doing this, Karen raised his hand and condensed an ice shield to block the blood splashing from the big man's body without staining his clothes.
Murray's side was also simple and quick. He hacked three of them to death with several knives in a row, and then smashed the head of a pirate with a shield.
For the last goal, Murray stopped, and he had to save a head for the one who arrived late.
Philomena arrived and kicked the last pirate, probably because she rushed too fast and didn't pay attention to controlling her strength. After kicking up, the pirate's body exploded immediately, blood and pieces of flesh It directly splashed her and Murray's whole body.
Murray wiped his face with his hand, but had nothing to say.
Philomena also felt that she had overdone it, and said to Murray, "I'm sorry."
"It's okay." Murray shook his head, "Just treat it as a deterrent."
The effect is still there, because the quick chopping of melons and vegetables obviously does not have a more visual impact than the body exploding and splashing everywhere.
The ten crew members basically gave up their resistance to the "enemy attack" and all knelt down.
The old white-bearded captain who was tied to the pillar began to shout at Karen, talking a lot, and Karen frowned slightly.
Immediately, the old captain seemed to realize something, and immediately switched another language. Seeing that Karen was still frowning, he switched again...
Finally, he spoke Makelei.
"Thank you for saving me, the Jin Luo will become your personal property, and we will dedicate our loyalty to you!"
Karen smiled. The old captain played tricks on himself. He had changed a few languages in his chatter earlier, which was obviously a bit of a show off, in order to show his value to himself.
This point can be seen from what he said when he finally switched to the Maclay language family. He should have already guessed the "race" of the three of them.
Be careful that Karen won't be disgusted with this, and he doesn't want to borrow a stupid guy to do things for him. After the sword of Aleus cut off the rope on the old captain's body, the old captain immediately knelt down in front of Karen. Get down.
"Can you control this ship?" Karen asked.
"Yes, no problem!" The old captain said firmly.
"Then clean up here and go back to Hong Kong."
"Yes, I will follow your orders. Please go to my captain's cabin, and I will serve you fine wine and delicacies."
"Don't bother, come here, I have something to ask you."
"Okay, I will follow your orders."
Karen walked into the captain's cabin. The space inside was not big, but it was furnished with an artistic atmosphere.
Murray and Philomena stood guard at the door, and the old captain walked in alone.
"What island is ahead?"
"It's Fire Island."
"Fire Island, is there a volcano on the island?"
"No, according to legend, the God of Fire once visited this island, so the place name has been handed down like this. Now, he is the main island of the Lomaford Pirate Alliance."
"Pirate Alliance..."
"It is an alliance initiated by seven big pirates. It is also the distribution center for pirates in this sea area. There is everything on the island."
"There are everything... Is there a communication circle and a teleportation circle?"
"Yes, but these two expensive settings are under the jurisdiction of the alliance. If outsiders want to use them, they need to pay points, and the cost is very high."
"As long as you can pay the coupons, it's fine, isn't it?"
"Yes, the alliance values reputation very much, especially on Fire Island. You can rest assured that I have some coupons here, and some belongings are stored in the bank opened by the alliance. I can take them out to pay for you."
"Okay, I know."
The matter was easy at once, but Karen still planned to go ashore to see the situation with his own eyes, and there was no need to call all his subordinates up in a hurry.
"Then you can accompany us to the alliance after landing. I want to see it with my own eyes."
"Yes, of course, I will serve you wholeheartedly."
Karen didn't ask him why he was rebelled by his subordinates, and the old captain didn't take the initiative to say this. Karen and the old captain walked out of the captain's room together, and saw Pu'er standing on the podium, with an unknown crown on his head. A pirate hat forcibly confiscated from which pirate.
"Oh, Karen, I feel the power of the family blood in me is boiling! This is your first pirate ship, have you decided what name to give it?"
"No."
"Aren't you a meow who pays great attention to the sense of ritual in life?"
Karen picked up Pu'er and hugged her in his arms: "We're just here for the journey. I'm sorry, but the situation on the island seems to be optimistic and there are rules. We will probably be able to leave here soon by the teleportation circle."
Pu'er spread her hands: "Oh, my God, did my pirate journey get killed just like this?"
At this time, the old captain walked up to the watchtower, and immediately shouted anxiously: "Stop the boat, raise the white sail!"
"What's going on?" Pu'er asked suspiciously.
Karen floated up, stood on the railing, looked forward, and found that at a place closer to the port wharf in front, two fleets suddenly confronted each other from a long distance, and they swayed sideways one after another, firing the artillery ports. Open it, point it at the opposite side, and the atmosphere instantly becomes tense and depressing.
If the old captain hadn't ordered the ship to stop in time, the ship he was on might have run into the middle of the two opposing fleets.
then,
I saw a light from one side of the camp, and then a beam of magic crystal cannon shot out, the first shot was fired, and the two fleets directly began to shoot at each other. The artillery roared violently, and the sea was turbulent.
Pu'er raised his head, and looked at Karen suspiciously,
asked:
"So, that's what you mean by rules?"
