However, being tied up was not the style of a Syrius officer.

Barely tidying up his mood, he commanded loudly:

"Prepare for battle!"

Victor knew that although he was flying the tulip flag, no one but himself could speak the lingua franca of the Tulip Alliance.

What's more, the Syrius-style equipment and decorations on the ship can't hide the eyes of those who care about it.

If it is an ordinary merchant ship, there may be room to turn around, but as long as the other party is not blind, he can see that this is a ship full of professional soldiers.

With the current relationship between the two countries, this battle is unavoidable!

"Your Excellency, Captain!

Perhaps we can tell these Pharytis about the silver mines, and try to get prisoners of war.

Moreover, among the three most powerful countries in the northern part of the New World, Atlan and Zac already knew the news, and they probably couldn't hide the tulips for long.

Let's just use the news to change your life. They need the charts in our minds, and even if the treatment is worse, at least they can save everyone's lives. ”

The first mate on the ship couldn't help but sweat on his forehead even in the late autumn season when he saw the fourth-class battleship getting closer and closer.

For the expedition ship at its feet, it is certainly not afraid of a military battleship in good condition. Even if its firepower could easily tear itself to pieces, it couldn't outrun itself in the same sea conditions.

But now the situation is different.

While the expedition ship pays attention to speed, the firepower configuration is very ordinary, which has been seriously damaged in previous naval battles, and it is not easy to still float on the sea.

In the Old World, there is the suppression of the true gods of various countries, and the great powers may still barely maintain superficial efforts to strictly prevent the escalation of the war or the situation from getting out of control, but in the New World or the Southern Continent, where the sky is high and the true gods are far away...

For the sake of profit, they can beat people's brains out of dog brains!

If the other party really finds out that his party is actually the truth of the Sylius soldiers, the biggest possibility is to sink the "Dolphin" directly into the sea, so that everyone can say goodbye to this world forever.

Everyone on board knew very well that with Sylius's always domineering style in the New World, it was basically difficult to have a second possibility when encountering the navies of other countries in this situation.

But.

Puff –

Boom!

The first mate was waiting for not Victor's approval, but a sword that killed him.

Kicking him to the ground, his face covered in blood, Viktor viciously warned the soldiers on board:

"At the moment of the war, those who dare to disturb the morale of the army will be killed!

Silver Island is the kingdom's biggest secret, and even if Atlan and Zac get the news, they won't continue to spread.

Whoever dares to tell the story of the silver mine is a traitor, and I will kill him before he speaks!

For His Majesty the King!

Although the naval regulations never gave the captain the right to kill the first mate, at this critical moment, he could no longer care so much.

However, the words of the first mate also reminded him a little.

Maybe you don't have to fight hard, and you can get away with it.

Victor felt that he could rely on the Alliance's disguise and try to hijack the other party's important personnel when the other party took the initiative to come over to check on the situation.

And then... Capture the opponent's battleship!

"If only Lord Daos were still around. ”

Previously, in the chaotic battle, the great knights of their own side were besieged by the prepared Atlans, and their whereabouts are unknown.

Seeing that you can't do anything, there is no point in sticking to it anymore. He had to flee in panic with his loyal crew and important men such as geologists and navigators who were familiar with the charts.

Although his sense of existence was a little low when he stood with Brigadier General Daos, he was able to be entrusted with the important task by His Majesty the King, and he was also a real peak knight!

Even if according to the general configuration of a battleship, the opponent has at least two official knights on board, but as long as he can seize the opportunity, his success rate... Very high!

They thought that the "Storm Horn" was still far away from them, and they couldn't see what was happening here.

Victor didn't know that every move on the "Dolphin" had already been clearly heard by the other party through seabirds.

"Silver mines, where are the silver mines? This expedition ship of Syrius has found a silver mine?"

Standing on the bow of the ship with the help of the eyes of a seabird, admiring a farce on the other side's ship, Aven became intrigued by the silver mine in their words.

Judging from the direction of the other party's voyage, the silver mine may be in the northern part of the New World.

And to be able to make the Cyrius people so cautious, it is impossible to be that kind of small silver mine.

It is very likely that this discovery will completely shatter the conclusion that gold and silver mines existed only in the occupied areas of the southern and central regions of the continent. It even triggered Cylius's endless greedy desire for gold and silver, breaking the current pattern of relative stability between countries.

"Hurry up, I'm going to capture them alive!"

"Yes, Your Excellency, Captain!"

With the help of the "Monsoon Goddess", the "Storm Point" rode the wind and waves, and in less than two hours, it was already close to the expedition ship that was badly damaged and moving at a turtle speed on the sea.

Of the three masts, the mainmast has been completely broken and missing, and the already low aft building seems to have been cut off by another layer.

The hull of the ship was littered with traces of artillery bombardment, large and small, and even near the waterline, there were obvious signs of a simple repair.

It's a bit miserable.

Then, the crew members of the warship saw the distress signal issued by the signal flag on the other ship, hoping that the "Storm Point" could lean over and rescue their crew.

"The total number of personnel is 114, 19 are seriously wounded, and almost everyone is wounded.

There is one person who is suspected to be an official knight, and the others do not have a transcendent level. However, looking at the posture, it is obvious that they have received formal militarized training, and they should all be elite soldiers.

The navy, which was identified as Sylius, cheered up. Open the muzzle of the gun and get closer to fifty meters. ”

Standing on the bow of the ship, Aven turned to give orders to the navy on deck.

No one doubted the accuracy of their captain's intelligence, and they ran quickly to their combat posts.

Bang!bang...

The firing port shutters were opened, and a shining cannon was pushed out.

This unfriendly behavior caused a commotion among the Syrius people on the expedition ship.

From afar, I heard someone shouting in the Tulip Alliance language:

"Don't do it, Captain of the Navy! We are the expedition ship 'Dolphin' belonging to Palos.

Encountered a damn pirate before.

The boat has been badly damaged, the bottom compartment has been filled with seawater, please save us!"

At this time, Ai Wen stood up and cooperated with the other party seemingly without knowing it:

"You've encountered pirates, these pirates are a little too firepowered, aren't they..."

The distance of fifty meters is enough for both sides to directly see some details of the opposite side with the naked eye.

Seeing that the officer on the battleship was so young, Victor's heart was instantly happy, and the success rate of the original plan of only six or seven points instantly became nine out of ten.

Such a young naval captain is clearly a descendant of a great aristocratic family who came to gild, as long as he can kidnap him, there should be no problem to get out smoothly.

"That's right, damn pirates.

We managed to escape, and there were many wounded on board who needed urgent medical attention.

I won't let you and your superiors work in vain, although we have lost more than half of the proceeds of this adventure, we are willing to give you all the rest of the gains!"

Bang –

As if they were afraid that Evan would regret it, they had already lowered a longboat, and Victor quickly rowed over with two crew members and an ordinary-looking wooden box.

A moment later.

The captain, who wore a triangular captain's hat and had a slightly darkened complexion, was not much different from a weather-beaten explorer, and had already carried the wooden crate to the deck himself.

"Good day, Your Excellency, Captain!

I'm Victor, the captain of the Dolphin adventure ship, and this is a little bit of a thought, so please accept it.

Everyone belongs to the Tulip Alliance and are all the children of the goddess, you must help!"

Victor took off his hat and saluted with sincere words, vividly showing an outstanding captain who never left his crew in the face of great difficulties.

He didn't know that his performance had been in vain, and that the entire crew of the "Cape Storm" already knew their true identities.

Even through a cursory observation of his rowing and carrying wooden boxes, Aven even had a vague judgment of his general strength.

Trample.. Trample.. Trample..

Armed with an ornate ruby cane, he had already strolled to the captain.

"Well said, well said..."

The cane casually taps on the wooden crates on the deck, making a crisp "knock knock" sound.

Thinking that the young captain wanted to inspect the goods first, Victor was secretly happy in his heart, and was about to find a reason to get closer to the past in the open.

He didn't let the entourage around him do it, but walked to the front of the wooden box himself, facing the side of Aiwen's lock.

"Although we suffered heavy losses this time, we found an Atrian temple in the northern part of the continent, and harvested..."

Victor was talking about his adventures, but the moment he bent over, he suddenly drew the swift sword at his waist.

Qiang –

Different from the mainstream battlefield hand half-sword on the mainland, for a Cyrius knight, the most popular swordsmanship among them is actually a lighter and thinner swift swordsmanship.

In the country of Cyrius, this unique swift sword technique is even called [Supreme Swordsmanship!] (yes, it's not an adjective, it's called that)

Everything is centered around the "Marichesky Circle", where every movement, attack, and defense follows a designed route.

This kind of swordsmanship against the enemy is not only a competition of courage and skill, but also a mathematical competition that tests intelligence, which is both elegant and powerful, and is welcomed by people from all walks of life.

And the [Supreme Swordsmanship] that uses the swift sword is undoubtedly the king of the one-on-one duel arena.

At this time, Ai Wen is close at hand, and it is the time when he can best exert the power of his swordsmanship, and it is also the origin of Victor's confidence!

But.

He didn't have time to swing his sword reflexively.

"Ah——!h

A miserable cry came out of his mouth.

The swift sword has fallen to the ground.

When—

Unexpectedly, Ai Wen, who was standing behind him, struck first, his sword staff was unsheathed, and a lightning sword had pierced his right shoulder blade.

He had already seen through Victor's thoughts.

He approached himself and turned and bent over, which was almost right in Aiwen's arms.

With mental calculation or unintentional, even a peak knight was hit hard by one move!

However, as a peak knight entrusted by the king, it is impossible for Victor to admit defeat easily.

"Physical Liberation – Twenty !!"

With a burst of shouts, the exerted self-suggestion has been lifted, and the powerful power of the peak knight has exploded.

Unexpectedly, there was a flat voice behind him:

"Physical Liberation - Thirty Percent!"

A kick slammed into his back.

Rumble!

Like a mountain, Victor was pressed to the deck, and his face was already deformed.

Ah——!h
