I really didn't expect that Sanji, an honest man with a shy and loyal appearance, still had this ability, and he was favored by girls quietly.

But for an ordinary person, this is probably the happiest thing, right?

Ai Wen, who has different goals in life, is destined to drift away from this kind of ordinary life, and can only silently wish Sanji happiness in his heart.

Walking on the road, Ai Wen looked at the note in his hand, his eyes were gloomy.

Unless he is willing to spend several times the effort of the previous one, he can erase the insignificant two digits behind the decimal point and truly reach the limit of human beings, but the gains outweigh the losses.

No transcendent person who aspires to go long on the path of knighthood would deliberately pursue the limits of humanity.

Ai Wen is now confident that as long as he can get a bottle of Black Sea Potion, he has a great chance of being promoted to Transcendental.

Even as long as there is a main ingredient such as "Demonized Shark's Transcendent Organ", Ai Wen can try to collect excipients according to the family's inherited prescription and configure a bottle by himself.

But even if the Black Sea potion is only the lowest level of potion in the knight's path, it still involves transcendence, and the "transcendent organ" that is the main material is not something that ordinary people like Evan can find casually.

What's more, the choice of the main material now is related to the path bias after the transcendental, and it is a major event related to the knight's life, and it is absolutely not allowed to be sloppy.

So joining a force and using the power of the organization became Aven's only choice.

At this time, because new shipping routes have been opened up over the years, in order to deal with piracy, defend shipping routes, arms races with enemy countries, etc., the kingdom's navy, which is in urgent need of recruitment, has entered Aiwen's sight.

Only a new force with extremely rapid development, the navy, can reduce personnel without sticking to one pattern, so that it can quickly rise to the top, and then control a certain amount of power.

Only the navy will not entangle Aiwen's identity as a descendant of the down-and-out nobles of other countries and give him full opportunities for promotion, after all, the red-eyed navy now even accepts thieves and criminals, and it is not inferior to Aiwen at all.

In addition, Ai Wen is alone, there is no backstage at all, if he runs to a place like the Army Cavalry Regiment that pays attention to his background, he will be a small soldier until he dies. So whether it's looking for her sister or seeking revenge on Ilya's enemies, the navy is the best choice for now.

In the end, Evan still has a little bit of selfishness hidden.

In this magnificent era, the shipping routes have been continuously opened, the true face of the world has been revealed little by little, and the great geographical discoveries are in full swing.

After reading the naval intelligence compiled by Sanji, Evan, who already had a plan in mind, spent the next few days dealing with various beginnings and tails and saying goodbye to acquaintances.

......

Time flies by in the busy, and before you know it, it's the eve of departure. Maybe it was the parting emotion, lying in his own bed, but Evan couldn't sleep.

I opened my eyes and looked at the ceiling, and my thoughts were flying.

Ai Wen, who has been alone since his previous life, has lived alone for a long time, and even has the feeling that this small seaside city is his hometown, and he is about to leave his hometown unconsciously has some sorrows.

In the sleepless tossing and turning, it has gradually reached the heaviest hour of the day in the early morning.

Knock –

Knock –

Suddenly, a mournful alarm bell rang out in the night sky, followed by a continuous roar in the direction of the docks.

Then someone shouted:

"The pirates are attacking!"

"The pirates are attacking!"

After a stirring sound, Ai Wen instantly came to his senses, jumped up from the bed, opened the curtain and saw that there was already a fire outside. Only then did I realize that there were really pirates rushing ashore.

Piracy is rampant in coastal areas, and incidents of pirates landing and plundering also occur.

However, Leopold was a city with its walls even smaller, and the coast was a key area for naval warships, so Evan lived here for five years and encountered a pirate siege for the first time.

Ai Wen hurriedly changed his clothes, picked up his long sword and hunting bow, and rushed out.

He thought very clearly, it may not be safe to stay at home at such a time, especially in the commercial area where he lives, if the city is broken, it must be the first target of pirates to plunder. It's better to take the initiative and keep the pirates out.

"Hey!

"Graeme!"

On the way, Evan unexpectedly met Grim, who also heard the movement and ran out, and the two simply said hello and ran towards the city gate on the side of the pier, which was also the direction from which the sound of shelling came.

This era is really too far from the word "Taiping", but the professional army has only just begun to develop, and it is difficult to meet the strong demand of the government.

Therefore, it was very common for hunters to be temporarily drafted to serve in positions such as scouts in the army.

As an excellent hunter, Graeme, who has also participated in several military operations, took Aven, a face that is not too unfamiliar, and approached the city gate unimpeded in a veritable "war chaos".

By this time the shelling from the sea had ended, but the situation in the city was critical.

Two large holes were broken in the city gate, and the city wall, which was not very high, even collapsed partially because of the fire or gunpowder explosion, and it was difficult to defend against foreign enemies.

On the city wall, a middle-aged captain officer armed with a saber roared loudly:

"Fire! drive these damn pirates out to sea!"

Bang –

Bang –

The soldiers lined up in three rows and fired alternately with flintlock muskets.

After only two rounds of firing, before the smoke of the muskets could clear, a large number of pirates armed with scimitars had already rushed up outside the city, screaming wildly.

"Rush—"

"Quack quack.....!"

"Tumors and garbage on the sea, let them taste the power of the Blood Anchor Pirates! The gold, the wine, and the girls are all yours!hahaha....."

"Long live the Captain!"

"Kill them all!"

After the volley, the soldiers, under the command of the officer, threw down their muskets, drew their sabers, and waited for the battle. Although the current flintlock pistol is not small, the reloading speed is too slow, and trying to shoot within ten steps is simply a joke with one's own life.

The next moment.

Boom –

The torrent of two blades and spears collided together, and a bloody hand-to-hand fight began, screaming and howling mixed with endless shouts of killing, and blood and limbs flew sideways, such a tragic scene that Evan and Grim saw when they arrived at the city gate.

After a long time of training, but it was the first time to come to the cold weapon battlefield, Ai Wen's body trembled slightly!

The splashes of blood, the screams before death, and the mutilated limbs all gave him a huge impact, and although the trembling was not due to fear, it was undoubtedly a test for him.

Smack-

Evan was suddenly pushed by Graeme, "Evan don't be stunned, let's go up too, support with bows and arrows!" Reinforcements will come soon." ”

Taking a deep breath, Evan nodded vigorously, took off the purple-shirted wooden longbow behind his back, and used his strength to jump to the top of the city several times on the broken city wall.

At a glance, the data-based vision has marked out the blurred enemy and the enemy in the dark, and the wind speed and direction are updated and corrected in real time.

Bend the bow and arrow.

"Whoosh!"

The feather arrow burst through the air and shot through the mouth of a bearded man with a bloody face and laughing maniacally, piercing the back of his head.

The young soldier who was fighting on the opposite side was slightly stunned, and instantly reacted and hurriedly went to help the other companions.

By this time, Even had already turned his longbow and sent the feather arrow into the eye socket of the next pirate, and his movements were so coherent that the situation on the battlefield could not allow him to carefully appreciate what it was like to kill for the first time.

In Aven's hands, the primitive bow and arrow turned into a murderous weapon more efficient than a musket!

Although the armies of this era were already equipped with muskets on a large scale, it was not because the bow and arrow were less powerful, but because the muskets or musketeers were more cost-effective.

A well-trained and qualified archer takes years of training, while an average musketeer takes only a few days to master the use of a musket, and the difference in efficiency is simply exponential.

And the era of queuing up to shoot is actually not very demanding.

A qualified archer is required to be able to fire ten arrows in a minute, and not yet on the battlefield in a dogfight. And with the help of his physical fitness and digital vision, Evan can shoot an arrow in three to five seconds, and the arrow is far more effective and terrifying than the musket.

By the time Grim climbed up the stairs, five pirates had been killed by Aven's arrows, and not a single one had been injured by mistake.

In comparison, although Graeme, who also opened his bow to support later, also made gains, he was far from being able to compare with Evan in terms of efficiency and lethality.

The extreme physical fitness of the human being gave Evan terrifying stability, maintaining a rate of fire at an arrow in three seconds, and it only took a minute to climb to the top of the city to support, and both sides realized that there was a sharpshooter with the power of terror on the battlefield.

The morale of the soldiers was greatly boosted, and although the pirates were not afraid of death, they were also a little cowering, and they were no longer as arrogant and unscrupulous as they were at the beginning. The defense line of Leopold's defenders of flesh and blood was miraculously solidified.
