Chapter 239
Bartholomew Roberts, the sage of this generation. Amami Shu also knew a guy who looked almost exactly like him, and that guy was called Draven. At one point, it was suspected that the two characters were modeled in the same way, and even the two distinctive mustaches were identical.
Torres took out the crystal vial and stabbed Roberts' finger with a sharp part, and the blood flowed down the vial. Putting away the vial, Torres turned to leave, and the soldiers he had brought with him set up Roberts and followed Governor Torres.
Amami was still standing on the roof of the house and observing the movements of these people at the moment, and from just now now, Amami had seen at least five or more assassins start to move. There should still be a lot of assassins hiding in the shadows. Among the haystacks, among the ruffians, among the women. The Assassins blended into their surroundings and waited for their time to strike.
One of the Assassins scurried over the roof of the house, noticing Osamu Amami, who was standing motionless, and paused slightly. However, seeing that the other party was also wearing an assassin's costume, he didn't pay much attention to it, thinking that it was just an assassin who had been ordered to wait here. And he hurried by.
The soldiers around them were being quickly cleared, and there was not even a single soldier left on the road that Governor Torres had passed and was going to pass, which had already made them suspicious.
The shark quietly approached Governor Torres and said in a low voice, "My lord, those guys may have arrived. ”
Governor Torres nodded, sensing something was wrong.
"Hurry up, we'll get back to the Governor's Palace."
Several people around them quickened their pace, and the Assassins, who had been secretly observing, noticed their actions and knew that they could no longer hide, so they jumped out of the hiding spot and rushed towards the Governor of Torres.
"Protect the Governor!"
The shark roared, picked up the axe behind its back, and turned towards the rushing assassin. The assassin was caught off guard, and the blade of the big axe slashed directly into his head, and his entire head was shattered by this blow, and immediately red and white flew in all directions. If it's a pirate fighting against the shark, this can definitely be a good deterrent. However, their opponents were all well-trained Assassins, and they had only one target in sight, Torres.
The Assassins rushed up and fought the soldiers, and the soldiers defending the Governor of Torres didn't even have time to draw their guns, let alone shoot at them. Tightly in the face, these soldiers died under the Assassin's Hidden Blade.
However, their deaths succeeded in slowing the Assassins and buying time for the others. Woodes Rogers and Julian DiCas, two new Templars, drew their swords and killed the Assassins.
Obviously, these two people, who had been mixed in the hail of bullets, were obviously more powerful than these assassins, relying on these two people, plus Shark and Edward, as well as the soldiers who came in a hurry. Governor Torres returned to his governor's palace unscathed. At the cost of the loss of a dozen assassins, only two dozen inconsequential soldiers were replaced.
During this time, Amami watched the whole process, and did not intervene to protect the Assassin's comrades, nor did he help Edward Kenway, who was in danger several times.
After returning Governor Torres to his Doge's Palace, Edward Kenway returned to the hotel. As soon as he entered the house, Amami saw Edward's unhappy face.
"What's wrong? Not satisfied with the pay? ”
"It's not just dissatisfied!" Edward angrily sat opposite Amami Shu and threw the money bag in his hand in front of Amami Shu.
"That's all I paid for my risk today."
Tianjian Xiu picked up the money bag and flipped it, and asked, "How many?" ”
Edward picked up the wine glass and drank it down, and said angrily: "1000 silver dollars, that guy only gave me 1000 silver dollars, which can be exchanged for 100 pounds at most." So what can you do? ”
Edward took a few sips of wine depressedly, and suddenly said, "I must find that observatory, that thing can definitely be sold for a good price, a good price that I will not be able to spend for the rest of my life." When the time comes, I will be the richest pirate in the world! ”
"So you decided to raid the Doge's Mansion at night to rescue that Sage?" Amami asked.
"That's right." Edward nodded and looked at Tianjian Xiu, "Do you want to help me?" When the time comes, I will share half of the money you earn. ”
"I'm not short of money." Amami Shu did not hesitate to reject his proposal.
Edward secretly said that it was a pity, if Tianjian Xiu could follow him, then the success rate would definitely increase greatly.
Although he did not succeed in winning over Tianjian Shu, Edward still prepared to attack the Governor's Mansion at night. He was about to say goodbye to Amami Shu and go directly to the Governor's Mansion when he saw Amami Shu suddenly stand up. Edward, who thought he had changed his mind and decided to go with him, was about to show his joy, but he heard Amami Shu say.
"No need to go to the Governor's Palace, come with me to the port to grab a ship."
"Why?" Edward asked. If you don't save the saint, what are you doing robbing the boat?
Amami Shu explained: "That guy Roberts is no longer in the Governor's Mansion at this time. ”
"Not at the Doge's Palace?" Edward was stunned for a moment, and wondered, "Could it be that Torres has already transferred him somewhere else?" ”
"It's not." Amamishu shook his head.
"And he was rescued by your fellow Assassins?" Edward asked again.
"He was neither transferred by Torres nor rescued by my colleagues, but he himself escaped from the Doge's Palace."
"How did you know he escaped on his own?"
Edward had just returned from the Governor's Palace, and when he returned, he found Amami Shu in the room, and he had been sitting across from him since now. He never left, it couldn't be what he saw with his own eyes. Since he didn't see it with his own eyes, how could he say that Roberts himself had escaped from the Governor's Palace? Or is it that he just made it up to prevent himself from going to Roberts, but this is too unusual.
Amami Shu had played the game, so he naturally knew that Roberts had escaped on his own. If Edward sneaks into the Doge's Mansion now to save that guy, he will be bumped into by the Doge, and his identity will be revealed. Amami now wanted to keep Edward as a Templar, so he stopped Edward from saving people.
This identity will always be useful in the future.
"It doesn't matter how I know, but he's escaped." Tianjian Xiu couldn't explain too much, so he could only say so.
"You've got to give me a reason to believe you." It was too hard for Edward to convince him.
"I don't have enough reason to explain it to you." Amamishu said, "But listen to me, among the ships in the port, there are several large ships escorting more than thirty pirates, ready to be escorted to England. We went to the port to rescue the pirates and then grabbed a ship to serve as a pirate ship. When the time comes, with your saving grace to them, you will be the captain of this pirate ship, the captain of a dozen or twenty crew members. At the same time, there will be a large amount of supplies, firearms, ammunition. ”
"As for Roberts, you'll soon get news of his escape from the Doge's Palace."
