On Tuesday morning, Sotos Young took a hybrid ship from the Adventurers Association, following the planned route, heading northward, making preparations to Nas.
In fact, Roman knew that a secret island controlled by "Admiral of Hell" Ludwell was in the southern waters of the Gargas Islands, which was also the scheduled place where General Amyrius led the Royal Navy of Ruthen to ambush Ludwell.
Sotos Young is very conscious of serving a big man and fully plays the role of bait. The ship sails like a normal person. He does not deliberately cut sailors just because he is a bait, thinking about reducing casualties.
It would be very unreasonable to show it in external intelligence. Similarly, there was no intention to add guards to ensure their safety, which was also inconsistent with the usual situation.
Standing at the bow of the boat, blew the bitter sea breeze of November, Sotos Yang looked at the surging waves and stared quietly in a daze.
Roman had stood by him at some point.
"Don't worry too much. Our mission is not to annihilate the 'Hell Admiral'. As long as we withstand Ludwell's first round of attack and the General's fleet arrives, he is not the pirate king. Can he still resist it if he can withstand it.
A true demigod?”
Seeing that Sotos Young was feeling a little depressed, Roman comforted him.
"I'm not worried about myself." Sotos Yang's voice was a little low, "even if this battle can successfully annihilate the 'Hell's General' and his fleet, and the adventurers on the ship, how many can or can return to Tuo?
Where is Scarter?”
"After all, I brought them out..." As he said, Sotos Yang looked into the distance and murmured:
"After doing things for big people, you can't control your own destiny. Roman, if you have a choice, don't hand over your destiny to others."
"Demigod...demigod..."
Sotos Yang looked north, looking towards the unknown battlefield.
Roman listened a little silently.
Roman, who knows more about the truth of this world, is actually more touched than Sotos Young. Perhaps Sotos Young thinks that a demigod is a real big man and can dominate the fate of many people.
However, Roman knew that in this world, not to mention demigods, even an angel, often he could not help himself.
Sotos Young has himself here this time, and he can always support the support of the "Weaver" and there will be no unknown risks.
But for Roman, there are too many uncertain factors in his fate, which are far from what he can grasp now.
Thinking of the oracle before the goddess, maybe when you reach the level of the demigod, you can get a little bit of mastery?
Roman couldn't help but sigh with Sotos Yang:
"Demigod...demigod..."
But the meaning contained in the words is completely different.
There was no accident during the day, like an ordinary trip to sea. However, in the evening, when many crew members did not notice, the course of the ship changed slightly.
This is part of the plan, where ships gradually leave the safe channel through some tiny yaw.
From then on, Roman began to be cautious.
After deviating from the channel, ships may encounter attacks at any time. Not only are they planned "Hell Admirals" but also outside the planned attacks and risks.
However, Roman and Sotos Young were obviously lucky, and no changes occurred until the night ended.
Until late at night.
Suddenly, Roman, who was patrolling on the deck, heard a lookout hand at the top of the mast exclaimed:
“Black tulips!”
Here comes!
Roman walked quickly towards the bow and looked into the distance. In the direction of the left side, he saw a huge sailboat, taking several ships to sail quickly towards the direction of the Black Falcon where Roman was riding.
The huge sailboat was dark and dark green.
On its pale main sail, there will be a blooming black tulip in the temple.
"Black Tulip"!
"Hell Admiral" Ludwell's flagship!
It indeed appeared in this sea area with its fleet.
Sotos Yang, who had been prepared for a long time, was not panicked and issued an order to the helmsman according to the prior plan.
"Right full rudder, go forward at full speed!"
Since this "Black Falcon" is a steam hybrid ship, the "right full rudder" here naturally turns to the right and advances at full speed.
I've learned a painful lesson before. Since the "right full rudder" in the sail era actually turned left, when steam-powered ships were not widely popularized, a captain with inexperienced issued a wrong order and panic
The helmsman also did not understand the captain's intention, and mistakenly turned to the left when he was supposed to turn the bow to the right, causing the ship to be robbed by pirates.
The helmsman of this ship is a confidant specially arranged by Sotos Young, who is experienced and will not make low-level mistakes because of panic.
Under the command of Sotos Yang, the ship changed direction and "fled in panic".
However, due to the power, the Black Falcon was still being chased by the "Black Tulips" behind him, shortening the distance.
The Black Falcon is full of veteran adventurers and sailors. Faced with this situation, although he was desperate, he still carried out the captain's orders without panic.
When you encounter pirates on the sea, in most cases, the best way is not to resist. After the pirates are completed, they will naturally leave, just lose some property.
However, the enemy is now "Admiral of Hell", and the adventurers on the ship have given up the idea of surrender.
Because the "Hell Admiral" has always been famous for his cruelty, he never knew what it means to not kill prisoners.
On the contrary, his reputation for killing indiscriminately resounded throughout the five seas.
So the adventurers and sailors on the ship knew that at this moment, they could only survive if they escape as soon as possible, find ways to deal with the "black tulips" and look forward to the favor of good luck.
Since the Black Falcon itself is a new type of ship known for its power and does not carry any cargo at this time, the speed is quite fast and it is not caught up immediately. Instead, it keeps carrying the "black tulips" to the distance
Sailing.
Roman looked at the panicked sailors on the ship, nodded, and then looked at the huge ship that was approaching.
He also saw the situation on the ship, and saw the man wearing a masked captain standing on the bow.
He wore an exaggerated triangle hat with white skulls embroidered with feathers, a white lace-clad white shirt and a luxurious brown jacket, and a thin sword hung from the cowhide belt that secured the white tight leather pants.
He wore a silver-white mask, covering his entire face, which was daunting.
"Hell Admiral" Ludwell!
The bounty in the country of Roon alone reached 55,000 pounds!
The legendary character, one of the most famous pirates above the Five Seas!
