XXXVIII. The Flying Dutchman

The weather in London was as gloomy as ever, and the air conditions in the rotten country during the Industrial Revolution were surprisingly bad. www.biquge.info London is more foggy than Beijing in the 21st century, with a pungent smell of sulfur and industrial exhaust gases emitted everywhere, making the city's living environment close to Beijing's sewers.

But the big people who live in London have become accustomed to the "bad weather" here, and even take pride in it, and even the stinking and foul Thames has become a sight for them to visit. But at this time, these nobles and big merchants endured the smell of sweat in the air and gathered in a small auditorium.

"I've seen them with my own eyes, those dark-haired devils! They burned my boat, and those stinky monkeys should be hanged in the harbor! A fat businessman painted white with lead white sat in a chair, huddled into a pile of meat, and shouted loudly.

A thin old nobleman glanced at him disdainfully, and said to the equally old-fashioned nobles beside him: "How can these merchants, whose fat has been stuffed with their brains, understand the glory of Great Britain?" In the light of Her Majesty the Empress, what are the sinners to worry about? They could not even speak, but could only raise stone axes and spears and scream like wild beasts. Only the Spaniards are our great enemies, since the defeat of the Armada by us, they still occupy the richest places in the New World, dominate the power of the Caribbean, we should concentrate on dealing with them! ”

But soon another nobleman scoffed: "Stone axe! Spear! Yes, they did use stone axes and spears. But their stone axes can easily throw several kilometers, farther than our shells. Their spears can easily pierce our ships, and how many valiant navies have fallen under their spears. They destroyed all the ships and ports, and plundered everything along the coast, whether it was treasure, artillery, or skilled workers. Now, that horrible group of demons is heading here, heading towards London. Right now, London is in the midst of an existential war, a war against heretics, and if we don't act, our great London may well be destroyed! ”

"Lord Johnton, were you frightened by those yellow-skinned demons?" A nobleman who was at odds with the nobleman openly mocked: "Those demons, with their fangs and claws, have scared our jazz out of fear, and he actually thinks that these barbarians have a life-and-death relationship with Great Britain. Lord, not every noble British nobleman is as cowardly as you, and we have enough courage and strength to destroy those filthy pirates. ”

A middle-aged aristocrat wearing a wig echoed with a smile: "Our will is the will of Europe, our territory is the border of the world, and the rule of Great Britain is like the sun that never sets, shining on all bright places forever." A mere group of infidels is like destroying London. Excellency Johnton, you're too good at telling jokes. ”

"God blessed Great Britain to conquer all heretics and heretics. Those sinful people who occupy the land given to us by God and do sinful things, who dare to harm God's people and do evil things of heretical worship, we should cleanse this unclean land and let the light of God shine forever. A young nobleman rose from his seat and said, "In any case, in the face of such a heretical provocation, we can only return to war, and only with the blood of these sinners, can we wash the glory of Great Britain!" What are we waiting for, respond to their provocations with war! ”

………………

Black pearl in a tense voyage. I saw a man with a dark red turban, pale black eyes, and gold teeth, and a pair of hands pulling the rudder from time to time, skillfully correcting the course. He was none other than Captain Jack, and the Black Pearl, who was now pretentiously manipulating, tried to bypass the edge of the battlefield and lead the fanatics behind him into the battlefield to escape.

At this moment, the entire ship, whether it is Captain Jack or the crew, is extremely nervous. The incomprehensible attacks of these fanatical followers, and their unrelenting gesture completely frightened the Black Pearl Master.

In this case, even the fact that the Black Pearl is known as the fastest ship in the Caribbean does not give them much security. So much so that Jack personally operated the ship and went to the battlefield to take the opportunity to escape. Nervous, they didn't notice that a dark blue light turned into a Dao aura, and Elizabeth and Elizabeth appeared out of thin air from the aura.

In the next moment, two semi-circular rings rose from the "merchant ship", and the halo turned into two rays of light and shot towards the black pearl. I saw the angry "Norrington" fly up from the merchant ship and direct the ring to attack the Black Pearl.

"Be careful!" William screamed and immediately pushed Elizabeth into a corner and blocked her with her body. But I saw two rays of light like swords and rays, rushing towards the black pearl with a sound that tore through the air. But just as he was about to hit the black pearl, he suddenly stopped and fell into the sea. At the same time, the luster of the merchant ship dimmed at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the consequences of the apparent loss of power began to show, and at the same time several shells hit, leaving holes in the ship, and the ship was no longer indestructible.

"Run!" William shouted, and the pirates of Black Pearl became even more nervous, pulling the sails hard, only to see Jack quickly turn the rudder. Eventually, the black pearl slashed across the core of beauty and fled the battlefield.

The merchant ship lost its power furnace, and its speed suddenly slowed down. But even so, it was hard to bite after the black pearl. I saw the "Norrington" standing at the top of the mast, staring angrily at the Black Pearl. At the same time, he raised his hands, condensed a dark red flame, and then threw himself at the Black Pearl.

Jack was clearly aware of the danger, and saw him turn the rudder quickly, only to see the Black Pearl move with great skill, narrowly dodging Norrington's attack, leaving only the fireball to blast the sea into the water.

"Huh!" Lu Li and Nezha glanced at each other, and suddenly had some doubts. Perhaps to outsiders, this is Jack's skill, dodging the fireball with incredible skill, but Lu Li and Nezha saw something strange in it. It's not that Jack's technique is bad, it's that his ship hid too quickly and too early.

With Lu Li and Nezha's eyesight, you can clearly see this natural and incomparable avoidance. It was actually the ship that began to dodge first, and then Jack began to turn the rudder, as if an invisible force was dominating the ship.

Nezha was suddenly interested, only to see him raise his hand again and throw a fireball at the black pearl. But seeing that Black Pearl always cleverly dodges it, the two chase and run away and chase for several hours. Although the exhausted Jack gasped like a dead dog, he steered the rudder steadily, and the Black Pearl was not hit once.

Nezha seems to have endless magical power, not only has to throw fireballs, but also throws fireballs from different angles and methods. He happily fought with the mysterious power, trying to force the Black Pearl into a corner.

Finally, Nezha felt a little tired of playing, and he was so invested for a while that he actually shot two fireballs at the same time, approaching the black pearl. Lu Li stared at the Black Pearl, because he was sure that the Black Pearl had been completely approached at this moment. He was very interested in how this mysterious force could defuse this blow.

Suddenly, at this moment, two water columns rose into the sky, and two huge tentacles emerged from the water columns to block the path of the fireball. These two tentacles were supposed to catch the Black Pearl, but they were blown up by the fireball.

The otherwise calm waters near the Black Pearl. Like boiling water, it began to tumble upward, as if there was a behemoth slowly floating. The clear waters become turbid. Soon the churning of the sea stopped. The vast expanse of water below the Black Pearl was now pitch black, and it looked unbelievably large......

The sound of "grunting" came from under the boat, and the huge tentacles like a jungle, countless roots slowly rose up outside the boat, and there were pimples on them one by one! There was a slimy liquid on it, and each tentacle was like a towering tree that only two people could hug!

β€œkraken! Norwegian Sea Monster ...... "The pirates spread out on the deck in despair, allowing a few huge tentacles to wave within his reach!" Crying and laughing, he shouted, "We played." ”

Lu Li and Nazha frowned, and Lu Li said with some hesitation: "World consciousness? ”

Suddenly, there was a spot on the surface of the sea, and fine bubbles appeared. And it was surging upwards, as if it was boiling. Before the "merchant ship" could discover the abnormality, the sea water burst into the sky. A huge black battleship rose ferociously from the bottom. The water cascades down like a waterfall from the tattered sails and hull decks. Before the huge black ship could stop, one cannon after another was pushed out of the cannon door! The ship was twice as tall as the galleon, and the muzzle of the gun was on the tip of the nose of the "merchant ship".

Just when the muzzle of the cannon was still dripping, the big ship launched a volley of fierce fire! With a deafening roar, a tremendous reaction force pushed the entire Fruitt ship several feet to the other side, filling one side with a thick smoke of gunpowder. And on the merchant ship on its right, the distance between the two sides is only a dozen meters. Before it could make any quick moves, it was almost pressed against the head by the cannon, and it shot firmly in the face!

After the smoke cleared, I saw that the entire bow of the ship was bombarded and collapsed, and the foremast flew directly to the back, and the French ship, which was powered by Lu Li, was almost destroyed. But Nezha extracted the energy from his body very much and injected it into the magic circle, and he still held it up after all.

At this time, the two set their sights on the ship that almost destroyed the "merchant ship".

The Flying Dutchman, a legendary ghost ship that can never return home, is destined to sail adrift at sea. The flying Dutchmen are usually spotted at a distance and sometimes emit a ghostly glow. It is said that if other ships greet her, her crew will try to get a message to someone on land or to someone who has long since died. In maritime legends, encounters with this ghost ship are seen by voyagers as a sign of destruction. Among the pirates of the Caribbean, the tragic fate of this cursed Dutchman who is forever adrift on the seas, sailing around, but never being able to dock. The sailors on the ship sailed for ten years, but only one day could go ashore. Bound to the ship, eternal life and eternal until it rots.
