Chapter 337: The Invisible Enemy
Chapter 337: The Invisible Enemy
In the restaurant of the Starlight, the sailors who had listened to Brooke's story recalled the dilapidated appearance of the pirate ship like a ghost ship, and it was really hard to imagine how Brooke had insisted on surviving alone in this environment for decades, because of pity, the sailors were not so disgusted with Brooke's pirate identity, only Kaslana's face was not very good-looking, but for the sake of Bothea's face, there was no seizure.
"If you want, you can leave this sea area on our ship," Joey Fello said with a deep groan, and then glanced at William and the others who were leaning against the window of the dining room, "Anyway, there are already three outsiders on the ship, and it's not bad for you, but you'd better restrain your pirate habits, I think you're good, and if there is a battle on the road, you have to join in." ”
Brooke's hand holding the teacup stopped in mid-air, and after two seconds, he sighed, put down the teacup and stood up, he looked around at the sailors who were sitting around the dining room, listening to him tell his story, and said sincerely: "I want to thank you, this is the most sumptuous and lively meal I have had in more than forty years, but I still have to refuse your offer, I can't just leave, I still want to repair my ship and my companions, if I can, can I borrow some tools and materials?"
Joey Ferry frowned when he heard this, and said: "It's not that I hit you, but your ship is already dilapidated, and there are not a few professional shipwrights to help, so it can't be repaired at all, you said before that it's just that the rudder is broken, but you didn't see what the sails on the ship are broken, even if you repair the rudder, this ship doesn't want to drive out of the magic triangle, not to mention that it has just suffered a few shells." ”
In the end, Joey Fellowo was a little embarrassed, which is why he invited Brooke to leave on the ship, Brooke's experience was already miserable, and the people of the Starlight bombarded his ship because of misunderstanding and fear, Joy Fellow and others were neither pirates who burned and looted, and had no psychological burden on crime, nor were they the navy that upheld justice and whose duty was to fight crime, and they felt a little guilty in the face of Brooke.
"But I don't want to leave the bones of my companions in this gloomy and dark place. Brooke's skeletal face was hard to read, but his tone sounded firm.
"We also have only one shipwright on board, so it is impossible to stay on your ship to help you repair it, and your ship needs too many materials to be repaired, and we don't have so many relevant supplies on board. Joey Ferry told the truth.
Baucia wanted to open her mouth to say something, but Kaslana grabbed her wrist, and she looked back at Kaslanna, but saw that the latter gave her a look and would not let her speak.
In fact, it is completely possible for Brooke to transfer the bones of his companions to the Starlight, anyway, after these decades, Brooke's companions have become skeletons like him, and they don't have to worry about plague and other diseases.
But this can only be said by Baucia, the owner of the ship, because from Brooke's previous description, it can be known that his companions are quite numerous, and the space and carrying capacity of the ship are limited, and to move the bones of Brooke's companions to the merchant ship, the merchant ship first needs to discard some goods, except for Baucia, and others, including Joey Felllow, are not easy to open.
In addition, although the crew sympathized with Brooke's plight, they might not be able to accept that they should be allowed to sail with a group of corpses.
And Caslana, who is in the navy, has more worries in her heart than others, Brooke is a pirate after all, Kaslana and Baucia are good friends, and she doesn't want any twists and turns in Baucia's voyage to invest most of her wealth.
Joey Fellowo, who had just taken the initiative to invite another Bombard on board a merchant ship, had already upset Kaslana, and it would have been great if Brooke had voluntarily refused to board the ship.
"It's okay, I can fix it myself, fix the rudder first, then fix the other parts, I've waited for so many years, and I don't mind spending a little more time. Brooke didn't notice the small movements of Kaslana and Baucia, and said optimistically.
As soon as Brooke's words fell, the ship shook violently, and many of the sailors in the restaurant were caught off guard, and it was a moment before the ship returned to normal.
Although William, Akin, and Selkirk also followed the example of other sailors, and bumped and bumped a few times as if they couldn't maintain their balance in the shaking just now, their faces all had a hint of coldness.
The ship's owner, Baucia, was carefully protected by her guards Clark and Kaslana, and was unharmed except for her pale face.
Captain Joy Fellow looked a little embarrassed, the teacup that had been put down by Brooke happened to fall on him, and the tea wet his pants, but Joy Fellow didn't have time to care about this, and hurriedly ran out of the door of the restaurant, but as soon as he got out of the door, he was stunned.
At some point, an island appeared in front of the ship, and the crumbling walls of the island stood on the periphery of the wall, and through the collapsed part of the wall, a forest could be seen behind the wall, and behind that, a mansion on a hillside, looming in the mist.
What shocked Joey Fellowo the most was not the island that seemed to appear out of nowhere, but the people he had left behind on the deck and in the watchtower, who never sent him a message in the dining room.
"What are you doing, such a big island suddenly appears, and you don't even make a sound!" Joey Ferry raised his head and shouted a reprimand in the direction of Wangdou.
It's just that after Joey Ferry finished speaking, he didn't hear a response from the people in the lookout, not only that, but the ship was shaking so badly just now, and the people he left on the deck didn't come to him to report it, and the situation was also a little wrong.
Joey Fello felt a little nervous, and the others came out of the dining room, and Joy Fellow asked one of them to climb up to see what was going on inside, but Brooke volunteered and easily jumped on the lookout and found the observer inside who had been knocked unconscious.
When Joey Fello heard Brooke's report, he immediately raised his vigilance, and hurriedly arranged for several teams to search the enemy around the ship, and reminded them to be vigilant, and then personally led the people to the foredeck.
William and the others followed Joey Fello to the foredeck, where they found several sailors who had been knocked unconscious.
The atmosphere in the arena was solemn, except for some speculation by William and his group, everyone else did not know the origin of this person who had infiltrated the ship unknowingly, and as the team of people who searched all over the ship reported the news, Joey Fello's face became more and more difficult to see.
The rudder had been vandalized, and the ship's doctor, who had not been in the dining room with the others before, and was resting alone in the infirmary, was also attacked, and was wounded worse than the sailors found on deck and in the lookout, and when he was found, he was already lying in a pool of blood, and his breath was weak.
However, the team did not find anyone, just like an invisible ghost who sneaked into the ship to wreak havoc.
