Levi's hand gripped the hilt of the knife tightly, and after splitting the cold light, a residual force was also wrapped around the scimitar, and on the deck four or five paces away next to it, a crossbow arrow made of all-iron was still nailed there, telling the thrill just now.

Exhaling slightly, Levi and the two sailor guards on the left and right also took half a step back, a little farther away from the dark cabin staircase that was almost impossible to see, but his left hand also raised slightly, signaling a group of sailors who were about to shoot on the side of the dhow behind him to calm down.

"Oh, what a sudden gift."

Nodding, Levi couldn't help but squint his eyes, but he also seemed to notice something, and turned his head to look at the iron crossbow arrow that was being inserted on the deck, even if it was split into the deck, half of the remaining force was inserted into the deck.

It can be seen that the strong crossbow that fires this iron crossbow arrow will definitely not be lower than the strengthened military crossbow, and even in Levi's impression, even the Governor's Guard of Gray Mist City does not have a strong crossbow that can fire this kind of all-iron crossbow arrow, but more just a hard crossbow that fires a larger crossbow arrow.

However, he also remembered in his mind that when he was a sailor, in the mouths of the sailors in the South Roaring Sea, he once heard the boasting, and he couldn't help but slowly speak, and said in a deep voice: "We are not enemies, we are from the North Roaring Sea." ”

Levi's voice was not loud, but it was absolutely clear, especially in the sinking merchant ship, and it was clearly heard throughout the deck and to the staircase of the cabin.

The two sailor guards beside him also glanced at each other suspiciously, but there was also more vigilance in their eyes, they bent down slightly, the flintlock pistol in their hands was tightly pressed against their shoulders, and they looked at the cabin, their expressions became more and more solemn, because they had also found that in the black cabin, there seemed to be a figure.

"North... The Terrans of the North Trumming Sea? ”

Slowly, a relatively thin figure came out of the cabin, holding a large steel crossbow in his hand, but his movements were also trembling, and it seemed that it was also difficult to hold this heavy steel crossbow.

However, his eyes still widened, and when he came to the deck to look at Levi and the sailor, as well as the dhow behind him, his whole face suddenly lost a bit of his previous surprise and panic, but was more surprised, he directly threw down the steel crossbow in his hand and raised his hand, and said loudly with almost joy: "I... I'm a Terran too! ”

The man who came out of the cabin was a child, and when he looked at Levi and the sailors, he did not have the slightest hostility at all, but cried with joy as if a lost child had found a companion.

"Hey, stand still!"

But the two sailors, as guards, were themselves more shrewd and cautious, and frowned slightly at the child who wanted to step towards them, and the flintlock pistol against his shoulder was aimed at him.

One of the sailors also turned his head to look behind him, and the comrades on the dhow were also holding flintlock pistols, which made him feel very relieved, but he also pursed his lips and said to Levi: "My lord, this guy is a little suspicious, if you can, let me go over and check it." ”

"Well, do it, after all, it's all Terran."

Levi nodded, not relieved that it was a fourteen or fifteen-year-old child, and at the same time raised his voice to remind the child, "Our people will go over and search you to make sure you are not a pirate." ”

"When... Of course, I'm not... Not a pirate, I could... I can grant you anything! ”

The fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy was quite cooperative, raised his hand, then slowly took two steps forward with his head in his hands, and then squatted down, letting the sailor walk over, carefully looking at the cabin and other directions, reaching out and quickly patting and searching the child, and not letting go of any place where the weapon could be hidden.

However, he searched his body very carefully, and did not find any weapons, but he also took out a notebook-like book in the child's arms, plus a fine linen money bag, and took it back and handed it to Levi.

"That's all there is to it."

The sailor nodded expressionlessly, as he had dealt with the pirates of the Atlantic more than once during his time in the Imperial Spanish Navy, and had already done a similar search I don't know how many times, so he was also sure of the meticulousness and security of his body search.

Levi took the money bag and the book, and the fine linen money bag made a tinkling sound of metal pencils clashing with the movement of his padding, but he knew that they were all small silver coins, and there were only a dozen of them.

It wasn't too much wealth, but instead of the money bag, he paid attention to the book with a black cover, with Terran characters written on it, and Levi happened to know these words that had been depicted through artistic calligraphy, so he couldn't help but look up at the child and ask, "The people of the South Whistling Sea?" ”

"It's... Yes, I'm Cage in the South Trummaging Sea, yes... It's the trainee sailor on this ship! ”

The young man who called himself Cage wiped the tears from his face, nodded excitedly, looked at Levi and the warship behind him very eagerly, and said quickly: "Sir... Our ship was attacked, but luckily I was hiding in a secret cupboard in the middle of the cabin, otherwise... Otherwise, I'll be taken away!" ”

Before Levi could say anything, he still cried to Levi with an eager look: "Please take me away, I really don't want to be in this sea area, even if I go back to the North Trumming Sea, take me back, I will contact my family to pay a sum of silver coins to redeem me!" ”

"Redeem you? Oh, little Cage, we're not pirates. ”

Smiling slightly, Levi's almost chaotic description of this little guy couldn't help but shake his head, and just as he wanted to continue to say something, the merchant ship under his feet shook suddenly, and the sound of a stream of water also came from the cabin.

It seems that this merchant ship, which has tilted, is beginning to move towards a worse situation, at least the sound of the fierce water echoes in the cabin, which means that a large amount of water has been flooded in the cabin, and if it does not retreat, it is estimated that it will be completely swallowed up by the sinking force into the sea because of the more inclined hull.

"My lord, come back quickly!"

Even on the dhow, the captain who was still watching from the bow of the ship also suggested loudly: "This ship can't hold out for long, and the breach at the bottom is estimated to have begun to be completely flooded by the sea!" ”

Levi glanced at the eager little Cage, also shrugged his shoulders and asked, "I guess there isn't much more value in this ship?" ”

"It's gone, it's all snatched away by those guys!"

Cage also shook his head in horror, but just as he wanted to take a step forward, he also remembered the steel crossbow he had dropped casually, bent down and picked it up and held it in his arms, biting his lip and saying: "The only thing worth it is this, but this is my weapon, if you want it, I can give it to you as a reward..."

"You can keep this thing." Levi shook his head and smiled, and the deck of the merchant ship under his feet shook even more, so he came to the side of the ship and quickly jumped towards the dhow, and as he grabbed the side of the ship with both hands, he was also pulled up by the sailors.

The same was true of the two sailors, but one of them also took Cage's crossbow and threw it at the dhow first, and then the three of them jumped to the outside of the dhow and returned to the deck with the help of the sailors, completely freeing themselves from the merchant ship, which was about to sink at any moment.

"Finally... Did you survive..."

And that Cage was lying on the deck like a limp, looking at the blue sky, and the hard deck below him couldn't help but close his eyes, tears oozed from the corners of his eyes, and he cried: "I survived..."

"Cage, seems to be very sad?" Levi came to the little guy's side, and the sailors around him also dispersed under the captain's wave, but they were also watching this side vigilantly, and the flintlock pistol in his hand was still held, for fear that something unexpected would happen, after all, Levi was their king and majesty.

Levi sat beside this young man, looking at his young age, with the aftermath of the catastrophe and complicated tears, he couldn't help but shrug his shoulders and asked, "It seems that you have encountered something terrifying, if you don't mind, can you tell me about it?" ”

"Of course, we... We were originally reconnaissance ships in the South Tsunami ... Come here... I came here to explore new routes..."

Cage didn't hide it, he sat up directly, and said with a cry in his tone: "But I didn't expect that three hours ago, we encountered an attack by an elven fleet, and we were defeated without seeing the situation clearly, except for me who hid in the cupboard in the gap to avoid the search, everyone else was captured by that group of elves and caught them on their ship." ”

Squinting his eyes slightly, Levi remembered the natural breath he had smelled before, and couldn't help but smile, as if talking to himself, "Is it really an elf?" However, he looked at Cage and asked with a frown, "You also know the news of this new route?" ”

"Yes, many people in the South Trumming Sea now know the news of the new route."

Cage also nodded, looking at Levi as if he was curious, but wiped the tears on his face and asked, "Isn't this a new route discovered in the North Trumming Sea, why listen to you, you don't seem to know anything?" ”
