Chapter 484: Pirates (Part II)
"It doesn't count! Luga! Andrew didn't want to, he protested loudly to Luga. Indignant, he kicked the head under his feet fiercely.
"Boom!"
At this time, a sudden huge crash sound sounded in the ship's hull, and the entire merchant ship trembled, and everyone on it fell to the ground because of the unstable center of gravity.
The hull of the ship tilted to the side, and everyone on deck, as well as the corpses, slid towards the inclined side. The archers on the mast were even more miserable, and the movement above was even more violent, so they could not keep their center of gravity at all, and they slipped down from it, falling like stones into the sea, splashing a lot of water.
In desperation, Luga grabbed the rope that controlled the mast, and Andrew and Berialui each hugged Luga's left and right legs, so that they could barely support themselves and not roll down like the others.
But the impact did not end there, Luga climbed up with difficulty and looked in the direction of the impact, and the medium-sized pirate warship crashed into the hull of the merchant ship. The merchant ship rolled more and more, and the people piled up on the deck continued to pour into the sea like dumplings, and the splash covered Luga's face.
"Luga, the ship is running out, is there anything you can do? If we continue like this, we will all fall into the sea! Berialiu below kept shouting at Luga, clinging to Luga's legs.
The combined weight of these two guys is not light, Luga's face is red when he grabs the mast alone, these two guys are too heavy, making Luga's hand feel that his hand is no longer his own.
He was reluctant to put the Dragon Breath Sword in his hand, he endured the pain, and insisted on putting the Dragon Breath Sword in his hand into the sheath, so that he could feel a little relieved.
"Oh, Luga, figure it out, don't care about the sword!" Andrew protested below, beating Luga's leg to show his displeasure.
"That's enough, Andrew!" Luga then shouted: "This is my trophy, obtained by hard work, don't you want it if you don't want it?" ”
"Ha Ka Ka ......"
The sound of shattering continued, and Luga looked up to see that the shattered deck was no longer sustainable, and the broken deck caused the mast to crumble. Luga realized at this time that the three of them would die at any time due to a broken mast if they continued like this.
In desperation, Luga looked down and saw the pirate's warship next to the merchant ship, and there was no one on it except for some rowing sailors. Luga thought to himself that he couldn't beat the others, and the sailors couldn't beat them either.
"Hey!" Luga shouted as he shook his legs and said, "Let's jump together, board the pirate ship, and take their ship hostage!" ”
"Huh!"
Before Andrew and Berialiu could nod their heads, the mast on top could no longer support the wooden planks of the base, and the mast slammed into the sea like a stick to draw water, splashing a large splash.
Luga and his party slid into the sea, Luga quickly held his breath, because the sea water could not be drunk, he used the lame swimming skills he learned as a child to float up desperately, and finally floated up, and saw that there were people struggling in the water all around, including pirates and Roman soldiers.
"Help, help, I can't swim."
At this time, Luga heard someone behind him exclaiming, and when he looked back, it turned out to be Andrew, this Germanic man could not water, but could only keep splashing in the water.
Luga hurried over and picked him up, and with Berialiu's help, he swam with the drowning Andrew towards the pirate ship.
The pirate warship moved on, splitting the merchant ship in two, leaving Luga with little time left.
"Quick! Fast! Luga swam with Berialiu to the pirate's ship, and while the men on it were not looking, he got up and jumped onto the ship.
At this time, the pirates who were still watching the excitement above suddenly woke up, staring at Lu Jia with wide eyes and horror, Lu Jia couldn't help but say, pulling out the dragon breath sword is a burst of slashing. In a few moments, the few pirates on board were killed by Luga's sword.
Luga hurriedly turned around and grabbed Beriali's outstretched hand, and lifted Beriarius up.
"Berialiu, you take care of Andrew, I still have something to do!" Hastily ordered Beria to help Andrew spit out the seawater to drink, and Luga beckoned to the Roman soldiers in the water: "Hey, come here, come here!" ”
When the soldiers saw Luga's call, they did not hesitate and swam towards this side, and Luga pulled them onto the ship one by one and threw the corpses of the pirates on the deck into the sea.
More and more Roman guards boarded the ship, and Luga's actions were quickly recognized by the pirates, who did not care about their comrades who had fallen into the water, and were bent on completely destroying Luga and them, only to see these pirates working together to steer the ship and turn around.
At this time, there were still many struggling Roman soldiers in the water, and Luga's boat was almost overloaded.
"Luga! Luga! ”
Berialius ran over and grabbed Luga's hand to stop him from pulling the Roman soldiers who were about to climb onto the boat, and said to Luga: "We must hurry up, now!" ”
"But they'll be abandoned here!" Luga couldn't bear it.
"Listen, listen!" Berialius grabbed Luga's two hands and explained to Luga: "Listen to me, Luga, listen to me, they will be fine, as long as we leave, we just need to return to Syracuse, and when the time comes, I will have the ability to contact the leaders of these pirates, and then we can redeem them, understand?" The main thing for us now is that you can't fall into their hands, because you know your worth! I guess you don't want to be caught by them and sell to Gaisarik for a lot of money, but if you don't, get out of now, now! ”
Berialiu's reminder made Luga suddenly realize that this was indeed a good idea, not only to redeem the soldiers, but also to meet the pirate boss, and Luga immediately agreed. Thinking so, Luga nodded slightly, and stayed at Beria.
"Now, with the oars, row, move, speed up!"
With Luga's permission, Berialius hurriedly turned back and beckoned the soldiers on the ship to move.
The soldiers hurriedly raised their oars from the boat to and fro under the Berialiu's horn, and at the stern of the boat, Luga shouted to the soldiers who were staring at the ship farther and farther away: "Remember, in front of them, don't try to keep anything, tell them everything, including my name!" Trust me, I'll redeem you all! ”
The pirate's warship was light, and the soldiers rowed out a long way with their strength, and before the pirates could turn the battleship, they had slipped out hundreds of meters away, and soon, the pirate ship was thrown behind and disappeared.
"It's safe! It's safe! ”
The tired soldier and Berialiu collapsed on the deck, only Luga sat in the stern of the ship and stared blankly at the water marks left by the passing of the warship behind him in a daze, not knowing whether it was good or bad for him to do this, he couldn't say for a while, he wanted to return to Syracuse as soon as possible, or Traville, as long as he landed, he could start rescuing his soldiers as soon as possible.
