Chapter 30

After breakfast, Masu came to Oren.

Ma Su has always had a question in his heart, it seems that Oron never shows his true face, and usually wears a mask. He was curious to ask Govi for confirmation, but Govi looked mysterious and stopped talking. Oren looks about 1.7 meters long, and he doesn't know how fat or thin he is wearing a big black robe, and he looks very mysterious with a cold mask.

"Maybe there's something unspeakable!" Ma Su thought secretly.

At this time, Piff and the other four leaders walked in from outside, followed by a neatly dressed person, who said with some excitement: "Big leader, there is news over there." ”

Apparently aware of what was going on, Oron asked, "When will their fleet depart?" ”

"Great Chief, I came overnight, and the other party should leave the harbor the day after tomorrow," said the man who came with him, apparently the eyes and ears of the pirates.

"Are you sure?" The leader said coldly.

"Sure!"

"Good! Then we will proceed according to the plan, and you will arrange for your men to set out with me tomorrow night, Leader of Abel, while the others will stay behind. Oron ordered.

"Oh, no! Lord Oren, I was your man the first few times, and last time I went to Marcelia to do a big ticket, and I was out of the limelight. My brethren have complained to me about this, and we are all dry eaters! This time, it's our turn, right? Piff excitedly objected, and the other two leaders who had not been ordered also echoed him, and explained their own hardships.

Seeing that Oron was still hesitating, Piff said excitedly: "Big Chief, I didn't let us participate in the first few times, I know in my heart that you have to establish your prestige, and we support this!" Although I'm a little rough, I usually don't contradict you, it's just a matter of facts. But I admire your courage and skill very much, especially the last time in Marcelia, we didn't expect you to dare to go ashore. However, you can't let us stay idle all the time, if you really don't worry, you set off with us, and we will listen to your command. ”

Piff had already said this, and Oron couldn't refuse, so he said, "Okay, let Abel stay behind, and I'll set off with you with my guards and a hundred brothers, and the three of you are a little short-manned!" ”

"That's it, we promise to follow your command!" The three of them patted their chests and reassured.

"Also, we don't need prisoners!" Oron said again

"But the Great Chief, isn't Alongsi by your side a prisoner?" One of the leaders asked.

"You should know what I mean, my father made this rule not to reveal our whereabouts, and it is because of his orders that the Romans have not been able to find our whereabouts until now. And once we accept the ransom, sooner or later we will be exposed to the eyes of the Romans. ”

Seeing that the leader still wanted to justify, Piv on the side said decisively: "I think we should obey the will of the big leader." ”

The man had no choice but to give up and not dwell on the issue.

In the evening of the next day, two warships left the island, led by Oron. In the darkness of the sea, there was no direction, only a bright moon and a starry sky, and even another warship could only see an outline.

Ma Su leaned on the mast and looked at the starry sky in a daze. What a beautiful night sky, unlike the city in the previous life, where you could only see three or two, the whole sky was gray. But here, you can clearly find constellations such as Sagittarius and the Big Dipper, and some Masu can't even be named.

There was no word all night, but the next morning, an accident happened.

"Two suspicious ships spotted ahead!" The lookout on the mast shouted loudly down.

"Can you tell what ship it is?" Oron asked below.

"I can't see clearly, but it looks like it's coming towards our ship," the lookout replied.

"Remind our ship, get ready for battle!" Oron commanded.

After a while, Ma Su saw that on the horizon in the distance, two black dots were approaching this direction. As time passed, the hull of the other party gradually became clearer, and he only heard Oren say: "It's the Carthaginian pirates, how could it be them, hang the red flag and let them slow down." Tell Piff that if they don't slow down, we'll rush forward. ”

The lookout took out a red flag and hung it on the mast, presumably a flag like a warning. However, the other party did not slow down, nor did he respond, and quickly rushed towards this side with the help of the sea breeze, while Ma Su and their ship did not sail, and relied on the slaves at the bottom of the ship to swing the slurry.

As the enemy approached, the warriors were ready to take over with their weapons in hand, and it was two warships who were afraid of whom anyway. Just then, an accident happened, and Masu saw another ship under the command of Piff change course and flee into the distance with the other two chieftains.

Ma Su secretly said in his heart: "Pifu is trying to escape? ”

But now it was too late to think about this, seeing that the Carthaginian warship was about to collide, and because of Piff's escape, the pirates on board were a little panicked.

Seeing that the situation was precarious, and the party was about to collapse, he heard Oron shouting: "Damn Piff has betrayed us, let's kill the Carthaginians, and then go to Piff to settle accounts!" ”

"Kill them!" Finally regained some momentum, Ma Su breathed a sigh of relief, otherwise it would be troublesome.

Strangely enough, the Carthaginians ignored the fleeing ships and crashed into their ships.

"Bang! Boom! There were two loud bangs, and the people on the boat were staggered, and as soon as they stabilized their figures, they saw the Carthaginians jumping up with shouts.

But before the Carthaginians who had just jumped up could stand firmly, they were cut down and kicked, and Oron's men managed to hold the port. But at this moment, the opposite side began to shoot arrows in this direction, and many people fell in pools of blood.

"Archers shoot!" Oron shouted sharply, but something didn't sound right, and Masu didn't pay much attention to it.

There were many long hooks and ropes stretched out from the Carthaginian ship, and seeing the three hulls slowly approaching, Oron hurriedly ordered his guards to attack. Ma Su was a little surprised to cut a rope wrapped around the mast, if he had less strength, he might not be able to cut it at once, and he didn't know what material it was.

As the hull of the ship touched, more and more Carthaginian pirates jumped up, and the battle on the ship was chaotic. Ma Su was also ruthless, moving quickly through the crowd, taking away a human life with each sword, without dragging the mud and water. Seeing six ways and hearing eight directions, he dodged the axe of a Carthaginian, turned and stabbed the tip of his sword, piercing the man's jaw.

Killing all the way, no one could stop Ma Su's sword, and the soldiers on his side saw him so brave, and they suddenly became angry. After Ma Su killed the twelfth enemy, a burly strong man stood in front of him, this man held a spear in his right hand and a small shield in his left hand, and Ma Su was entangled for a while.
