"Noah, now is not a good time, maybe we can't save them." "After so many days at sea from the Empire, the sailors are tired, and now we are facing Heinrich's well-fed fleet - we have no chance of victory," said Aavis, "after so many days at sea. ”

Noah didn't say anything more, his eyes were deep, and he looked at the girl again—she had to make up her mind in the end.

An Ning Ning had a headache, Noah's personality made her know from three years ago that he would always do his best to help others. But Avis was right, as a captain, she knew very well that the fatigue of a long day of sailing was not a good time to fight the enemy, either physically or mentally.

Probably seeing her embarrassment, Noah was slightly stunned, and his eyes, which were originally a little gloomy, slowly returned to their clear blue again, and he raised his forehead slightly, and his attitude softened.

"I'm sorry, I was impulsive and forgot to think about this. But stay here for now, and I think I'd better take a look first—after all, we can't guarantee that the pirates will spot us, so we can be on guard. ”

"You don't have to worry, I'll be back soon." Though he said this, his gentle gaze was fixed on the girl alone.

She was angry and funny, after getting along for so many years, how could she not understand what he really thought.

There will be precautions, but more, I'm afraid I still want to help if I can.

She let out a low sigh.

"When we escaped from the harbor, we and Heinrich would have fought sooner or later, so this time since we met his fleet, Frank, we should first select some of the sailors who are in better condition, and then follow me and Noah to the village, and try to take advantage of the fact that we are caught off guard, Avis—" she pretended to be relaxed, "Well, this is up to you, and Cyril should stay, lest they kill our fleet in case they return to us?" ”

"As for Hathaway...... So that she doesn't have to panic. ”

"Hey—you guys." Ives looked at her and Noah depressedly, "What did this make me who just made that decision?" ——A cold-blooded man who doesn't care about the lives of the people. ”

"Your decision was not wrong in the first place, Avis, and you did it to save us all as much as possible." An Ning Zhengse said, "It's just that sometimes danger also represents opportunity." ”

"As a gambler, you should understand, don't you?"

She patted him on the shoulder and winked teasingly.

Ives couldn't laugh or cry, if he really believed this, he wouldn't be Avis.

"Let's go, let's go, you all go, I'll stay here!" He waved his hand in disgust, and said with a full temperament, looking out of sight and out of mind.

Yet, they are still reassuring.

Because, everyone is a partner.

……

It was an atrocity.

The pirates laughed wildly, their knives fell, and blood stained the entire land. The rage of men in defiance, the panicked cries of women, and the frightened cries of children filled the village.

The light of the fire illuminated half of the sky, but it was difficult to illuminate the way of escape. Stumbling and stumbling, the people of the village supported each other, just trying to avoid the clutches of those demons.

"Heinrich." Noah squeezed the words from between his teeth, the light of the burning fire adding a rare look of anger to his blue eyes.

A group of sailors was drawn to cover the villagers, and Frank and Noah led the men to quickly throw themselves into battle. An Ningning, who has used the pistol very easily in the past three years, is aiming for a sneak attack on the side.

However, the sudden resistance did not frighten the pirates, but only fueled their madness.

The impulse and pleasure brought by wanton plundering make them desperate to fight back fiercely.

A fierce battle has begun.

……

The tingling pain came, and she couldn't see what it was the first wound on her body, and she tried her best to tense her body against the urge to faint from the blood loss. Subconsciously grabbed the other party with his backhand, and put the gun against his abdomen with the other hand, holding down the gusset -

The fire was gradually burning to the end, and the pirates were also wiped out by them, she collapsed weakly in the corner, watching the light-colored shirt in front of her have already been killed by the blood-soaked Noah, and ran towards her in a little panic.

The corners of her mouth curled slightly—it turned out that Noah was really right, his swordsmanship was so good, and the broadsword was like a light and shadow that could not be captured, shuttling through the enemy as quickly as it could not be captured, taking away the lives of the other party.

"Anne, how are you?" There was panic in his eyes, the broadsword slipped from his hand, and he knelt on the ground absently, gently stroking the girl's face stained with blood and dust, and his fingers involuntarily trembled slightly.

"I'm fine, Noah." She said, looking at the sunny sky, she took the man's hand with her backhand, looked into his eyes, pursed her lips and smiled, "We defeated them—"

"Yes, yes." He muttered in a low voice, carefully guarding the back of her head against the wall, gently hugging her, "Annie, we defeated them. ”

"But—I know that we are not the time to go to war with Heinrich. Annie, I know it all. ”

He hung his head, his body full of unspeakable sadness and vulnerability, his voice was hoarse like it had never been revealed, and he whispered sorry again and again.

"What are you sorry for? You didn't do anything wrong. The girl smiled palely.

She gently let herself go, leaned her head slowly on his shoulder, and wrapped her hand around him gently, again and again, caressing the somewhat thin but straight back.

"Your heart is always so gentle and considerate, and there is nothing wrong with saving people's lives."

"No, Annie—" Noah's voice choked in agony, "I'm not as good as you think." ”

In the wee hours of the morning, the air was so cold, and the tears dripped on the girl's white neck, so hot and hot, almost burning her.

"Noah—" She subconsciously called his name in surprise, but he didn't say a word.

I don't know how long it took, but a powerful sound of footsteps came from far and near, until they stood beside them and stopped.

She thought it was Frank who had finished taking care of the battlefield, but she didn't expect that when she looked up, it was Heinrich!

"Look, look." The black-haired man looked down at them from above, and said with a smile, "What a sincere affection between two little ones." ”

As soon as the man's voice came out, she clearly felt the stiffness of the man's back under her.

"Huh. You have the guts to wipe out all the fleets I have sent here. Heinrich looked at Noah, who was holding back his anger and staring at him closely, with a hint of banter in his eyes, but more of a ruthless indifference.
