Chapter 18: A Bloody Case Caused by a Bear Child
On the eve of the World Conference, the Navy Headquarters mobilized all the admiral-level navies that could be dispatched.
With the exception of the admiral, almost all navies between the colonel and the vice admiral of the headquarters traveled to all parts of the world on warships.
Their duty is to escort the royal families of the participating countries to ensure that the royal families can reach the Holy Land of Maryjoya safely.
The two warships that Maud encountered were the same navy from the headquarters that was responsible for escorting the Canette royal family.
The magnificent ship in the middle of the two warships is the king ship of the South Decanette Kingdom in the East China Sea.
As a special ship for the royal family of South Germany, it perfectly embodies an adjective in terms of function, volume, appearance and other aspects.
The breath of money!
At the bow of King Canette's ship, a green-haired boy of about eleven or twelve, dressed in rich costume, stood on a fixed table.
This young man was the second prince of the kingdom of Nande Canette. Lyle.
Lyle held a gold-plated spear with a smoking muzzle in his hand.
He fired those shots just now.
The reason is also very simple, that is, it hurts to be idle.
For Lyle, although there are many slaves on the king's ship that can be used for entertainment, they will get tired of playing for a long time, so it is better to take the initiative to have some fun.
However, sailing is a tedious affair before arriving on land.
It is obviously not easy to have fun on the vast sea.
Luckily, Lyle saw a merchant ship as soon as he stepped out of the cabin.
Without hesitation, Lyle asked the dogleg to fetch the gilded spear, and then fired several shots at the figure on the mast ship.
"Let's see if I hit!"
After the shooting, the second prince of the Canette kingdom danced excitedly on the table.
At the table, a soldier in armor immediately picked up a telescope and pretended to look in the direction of the mast ship a few times.
The rotten marksmanship naturally can't hit the target, but ......
The soldier commander, who had long been accustomed to this kind of "work", put down his binoculars and said respectfully: "Hit the target, Prince Lyle's marksmanship is as good as ever!" ”
Lyle smirked and tossed the gold-plated spear to another soldier beside him.
"Hurry up and reload, it's rare to have a lot of fun, this prince has to have a little fun!"
On that still immature face, there was only a look of excitement that couldn't wait.
In the hearts of the prince of this Canette kingdom, shooting civilians for no reason seems to be a trivial matter.
On the deck of one of the warships sailing alongside the royal ship.
Hearing the gunshots, a navyman in an overcoat with protruding teeth and a premature old man frowned.
"Is it the unbeatable prince again?"
Brigadier General Bucktooth thought to himself.
He was the head of the escort of the Canette royal family this time, and had a brief contact with the so-called Second Prince of Lyle before setting sail from the ports of the South de Canette Kingdom.
The feeling given to him is - extremely bad.
At this time, the sound of gunfire was heard again, and although he could guess what was going on, Brigadier General Bucktooth, who was known for his prudence, ordered his deputy to confirm the matter.
Brigadier General Bucktooth is overly cautious, so that he will die before he is old at the prime of life.
Soon, the deputy returned to Brigadier General Bucktooth and whispered, "It was the second prince of Canette who fired the gun, and the target was the merchant ship at two o'clock." ”
Brigadier General Bucktooth frowned even deeper when he heard this.
At this point, the best way to do this is to let the ship slowly stagger its course.
As long as the target is lost, the prince of Lyle will naturally lose interest.
However, the Canette royal family who escorted this time was one of the few in the 170 member states who did not like to ride on warships.
Because of this, there is such a king ship that is escorted by warships in the middle.
Although the soldiers of the Canette Kingdom on the king's ship can increase the number of escorts in this convoy, it also makes it impossible for Commodore Bucktooth to directly control the route.
If you want to change lanes, you have to inform the people on King Carnet's ship in advance.
It can be said that there is as much trouble as there is.
"Forget it."
Brigadier General Bucktooth shook his head slightly.
In his opinion, even if he didn't change his course, the merchant ship that Lyle regarded as having fun should slip away.
Just as he was thinking this, several more gunshots were heard from the king's ship.
Brigadier General's brow, which had just been loosened, couldn't help but furrow again.
This damn royal kid......
Brigadier General Bucktooth was helpless and still decided to turn a deaf ear.
At this time, the lookout above gave him a bombshell notice.
Above the sea in the distance.
Maud left the mast ship and walked towards the warship and the king's ship with a moonwalk.
Lafayette had wings on his back and followed closely behind Maud.
Originally, Maude was still thinking about whether to attack the two warships.
As a result, the bear child on the king's ship inexplicably shot them several times, as if to say: Come and play with me.
Maud was already inclined to attack the warship and made a decision on the spot.
There are risks and benefits!
In addition, both he and Lafayette have the ability to travel in the air, so they don't need to sail to face the shelling power of the two warships.
Sometimes, having fewer people is an advantage.
In a conventional naval battle, their armed merchant ship, which was only equipped with two guns, would not be able to withstand several rounds of shelling from the two warships.
And now, Maud and Lafayette can take the initiative and let Bailey drive the merchant ship a little farther away.
In this way, even if Maud and Lafayette can't eat the two warships, they can rely on the ability to get out of the battle in time and return to the merchant ship.
Maud and Lafayette's sortie immediately brought the two warships into combat readiness.
If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, the navy would never have dreamed that these two men would emerge from an ordinary merchant ship.
Especially that Bacardi. Hammond......
It was born eight months ago, and the first reward was 68 million.
But in the time that followed, this guy disappeared like a comet as soon as he emerged.
It's been eight months, but I didn't expect to be here!
"It's Bacardi. Maud and the Devil Sheriff Lafayette! ”
On the deck, Brigadier General Bucktooth stared at the two figures that were rapidly approaching.
Normally, these two warships alone are enough to deter pirates.
Moreover, pirates generally do not actively attack warships unless necessary.
But Maud and Lafayette took the initiative.
For no apparent reason, Brigadier General Bucktooth found a motive for this unreasonable behavior in an instant.
Damn Second Prince Canette, it's okay to shoot at a merchant ship!!
Well, a few shots went over and fired two guys who were not easy to mess with.
Brigadier General Bucktooth shook his head sharply, flicking these useless thoughts out of his head, ready to fight.
Soon, Brigadier General Bucktooth noticed Maude's moon step technique, and an incredible look appeared on his face.
"That's ...... Moon Step !! How can it be?!! ”
Brigadier General Bucktooth was shocked.
King Canette aboard.
When the second prince Lyle saw Maud and Lafayette coming from the sky, he was not afraid at all, but even more excited.
He raised the muzzle of his gun and aimed it directly at Maud and Lafayette in the air and pulled the trigger.
A few shots that have no accuracy to speak of in the past are naturally fruitless.
Seeing that the bear child fired a few more shots, Maude's eyes were cold, and he canceled the moon step and let his body fall.
Maud then quickly pulled out her flintlock pistol and fired a shot at Lyle.
Lead bullets flew out, striking a blinding bloody hole in Lyle's forehead.
It happened too suddenly.
Seeing Lyle's face stiffen and collapse on the deck, the soldiers around him came to their senses.
"Second Prince Lyle!!"
There was chaos on the deck.
Royalty...... He was actually shot!
