Chapter 56: A Letter from Home (Part II)
Just as I guessed your plan, you should be guessing my plan - and guessing my plan based on a few clues that were deliberately leaked. The things you'd love to see were happening this night: Charles and Blind Matt leading the way, Scar Henry and I leading the ship's elite reinforcements. The entire Bell and Glass's defenses have been almost exhausted, and the only remaining threat, and the biggest and strongest threat, is Armand! As soon as he leaves his cabin a hundred meters, no, even fifty meters, you'll be able to empty his room as clean as if he had been licked by a dog, and you will be able to leave this damn world without any danger.
The point of it all is when Armand will leave the ship? The only possibility is that when we successfully sack the shore and/or return from a crushing defeat, as a pirate ship captain, we can't be the first to charge on the front line, but we can also use the base camp to defend the back road. But if a meritorious man returns from a bloody battle, but you still stay on the boat and pose as a enjoyer, it is unreasonable to say anything. Obviously, Armand still knows this ability to win people's hearts, otherwise he would not be able to sit in the position of the Seven Pirate Kings - this is the only chance you have been waiting for!
Seeing this, Kerry's fat face was already blue and white, white and blue! Cold sweat trickled down his forehead, completely wetting his hair, and he didn't have time to wipe it on, his heart seemed to sink into an ice cellar at this time! He never imagined that the person he was going to calculate would be such a guy, such a devil who had insight into people's hearts! He gasped loudly for a few breaths, and hurriedly continued to look down.
....... I have to tell you that the opportunity you have been waiting for will never be there.
I have been deliberately revealing in front of you a lot of information that "the current position is not easy to come by", so I have created a superficial phenomenon for you: I have not won the position of boatswain at present, so I attach great importance to it, and I also intend to use it to continue to climb up, I believe this view has been ingrained in your heart.
But, in fact, what I want to tell you is that if you are willing to give, you will have to give up. If I am reluctant to take the position of boatswain and the prestige I have painstakingly built up on the bell and glass, how can I cleverly arrange you as my most important pawn?
I am destined to betray Armand.
It was in the midst of this expedition.
So Armand will never wait for news of our triumphant return, and the only news he is waiting for with all his eagerness can be that I have betrayed him - no matter how well my plan is carried out, whether it ends in success or failure, life or death - I will betray him, betray him completely.
Well, for you who stayed on the ship as a hostage as a "brother connected by blood" and a "great benefactor of life and death". Dear Mr. Kerry, with your rich imagination, you should have imagined what kind of cruel criminal law Armand would use to vent his anger on your **.
With the peace of his father's soul and the reward of ten pounds, there is at least an 88.4% chance that the long-legged Robben will faithfully carry out my command: to deliver this letter to you on time two hours after departure. I may be dead by this time, or I may still be alive somewhere in the world, but it doesn't matter to you, the important thing is that I must have betrayed Armand and that it is likely that the great Children of the Black Sea have now received this sad news - so for your safety, Mr. Kerry, be sure to listen carefully to the footsteps coming from outside the cabin, which are likely to be sent by Armand to capture you.
For the sake of those two gold pounds, my last piece of advice to you is:
Detonate the bombs on the ship and cause great chaos, then jump into the water!
The more powerful the explosion is, and the more completely the bell and glass are destroyed, the weaker the force to hunt you down, and the higher the safety factor of your life. Of course, if you're a rebellious person who won't blow up a bomb and run away, I'm sure the shrewd pirates will pull you out of the water in a minute - and that's without Armand making a move.
Believe me, while soaking in the icy waters in this weather is not a nice experience, it is much happier than experiencing the cruel torture of pirates. As long as people are alive, then there is hope, do you say?
Ten seconds after Kerry finished reading the letter, footsteps could be heard outside the cabin.
The footsteps were not hurried or loud. Kerry's pupils immediately constricted, which was not only frightened, but also mixed with great fear!
Fang Senyan's letter not only shattered his self-confidence, but also provoked this guy into a frightened bird, and his fragile nerves had reached a critical point that was about to get out of control under the stimulation of negative emotions such as frustration, panic, and frustration!
Although the source of the footsteps was just a pirate descending from the cabin to pick up clothes.
The rest couldn't be simpler.
Creesch unleashed a small explosion, blasting the plank of the cabin near the sea and jumping into the icy water. Since he had already thought about escaping from the water for seven days in advance, he naturally prepared some props and supplies for underwater acceleration and breathing.
Twenty seconds later, the panicked pirates guarding the door were still on their way to the captain's quarters. And Kerry, who had swam nearly 100 meters, had already gritted his teeth and detonated all the mental power bombs he had placed on the bell and wine glass! Although he didn't want to do what Fang Senyan said, he had to do this, and he didn't dare not do it! Because Kerry also felt Armand's terrible - even though the man had never fully revealed his true strength!
So there was the scene that Fang Senyan and Scar Henry witnessed on the ship.
…………………………
A raging fire, burning violently on the surface of the sea. The burning was so blazing that the ashes and some of the residues were violently thrown up by the rising hot air, which seemed particularly tragic and desolate. Such a grand scene not only stunned the remaining three pirates, but even the initiator Fang Senyan also felt a little unexpected.
The engulfing fire undoubtedly made Fang Senyan's ambitions even more intense, but it also completely burned the hopes of some people. Scar Henry stared blankly at the sea in the distance, the complexion on his face quickly turned gray, and in this moment, he lost all motivation to move forward!
As long as a person has something to protect in his heart, then in times of adversity, he can stimulate all the potential in his life and move forward, and Scar Henry, who was already seriously injured, only supported it with a belief in his heart, so that he could be rebellious and violent until now, but when he witnessed such a grand destruction, all the injuries and pains that he had suppressed on his body broke out at that moment! Because what he wanted to protect and what he was fighting for was all over the place in an instant, completely shattered! (At this time, the captain and some of the senior sailors had unimaginable affection for the ship, and some simply regarded the ship as a wife and child.) Captain Jack in Caribbean Sea 4 said: The captain should sink with the ship).
The blow that Fang Senyan finally arranged, aiming to be sad rather than hurting his body, can be said to have completely destroyed Scar Henry's will to continue fighting, and the old guy who accompanied him for tens of thousands of miles was destroyed on the spot, and the object of his allegiance was not known to be alive or dead, and his life could have collapsed by more than half! What's more, at this time, he was also greatly injured by ordinary people who were about to collapse? Scar Henry clenched his hands into fists, stood at the bow of the boat, let the Caribbean wind blow his cheeks, and slowly closed his eyes.
This is the source of Fang Senyan's confidence! As long as Armand let him ashore, the destruction of the bell and the goblet was almost a foregone conclusion. He's the eternal winner - once he gets ashore, the worst is likely to be ostracized by all the Bells and Glasses crew who come ashore! But don't forget, as mentioned in the previous mission: Pirates of the Caribbean are a group of people who fear the powerful, and whether you unleash kindness or malice on them - anything that is memorable to them will increase your reputation among them!
Needless to say, trying to blow up the Bell and the Glasses will raise his reputation among pirates to a new level!
Therefore, even if the worst happens, Fang Senyan can still reap huge benefits! What's more, the chances of this kind of thing happening are not very high!
Fang Senyan stood five meters away from Scar Henry, although all his state had returned to his best condition at this time, taking the unpurified pill of hemoglanin also had a huge side effect: after taking it for ten minutes, there would be a negative effect of 33% reduction in all genera. Fang Senyan had always guessed his opponent with the worst possible possibility, and if Scar Henry had maintained that state of madness, he really didn't have the certainty of settling the battle within ten minutes. Therefore, if even the final foreshadowing of blowing up the bell and the wine glass could not defeat Scar Henry, then Fang Senyan would really have to consider escaping.
The sea breeze blew slowly, Scar Henry's eyes dimmed, and his heart struggled and twitched again before finally being overwhelmed and stopped beating.
……….
In the year 233 of the oceanic calendar, at 11:17:3 on the night of May, the bell and the wine glass, the first mate Scar, Henry, died at the age of forty-seven..........
Even though Scar Henry had stopped breathing, he was still standing in the bow of the ship, his eyes wide open, as if he was about to burst out again at any moment. Even if he was dead, he looked vicious and unruly, and there was a kind of dazzling magic that fell from his body, and a conch that shone with silver light fell from his body, rolling at Fang Senyan's feet. Fang Senyan picked it up and felt that there was an indescribable power hidden in it! In addition, the silver sword of Armand, which was carried by Scar Henry, also fell to the ground, but it was dim.
