Chapter 193: Man dies for money
Chapter 193: Man dies for money
Under normal circumstances, how would an eleven or twelve-year-old child react if he was in danger?
"Help!"
"Help!"
"Help!"
Well, that's what a normal child should do!
But, it's obvious that this guy in front of him is an abnormal child! Or is this really a child?
Look, in the face of the pirate ship's artillery attack, this guy not only did not panic, but the excitement overflowed on his face, although he didn't seem to have reached the second order, but the magic released could easily block the frequent attacks of the cannonballs, accurate, and fast!
This is not like a magician, but more like a warrior in the garb of a magician.
However, being able to withstand the fire of a battleship with one person and a small boat, for a first-order magician, even the most genius has reached the limit, and it is already very rare for him to be able to keep the ship and himself from attack, or even the most talented magician cannot maintain such a situation in such an extremely unfavorable environment.
Obviously, the magic wand in this child's hand is not ordinary, at least it must be more than 10,000 gold coins.
However, whether it is the profession of a magician, or the power bonus of the superb magic wand in his hand, if he can do this, this child is really worthy of the word genius.
"Will, don't fire, be careful of accidentally injuring that kid!"
"I know what I know!"
After this brief conversation, the speed of the Snow Fox increased again, and the other six ships maintained almost zero speed, for an opponent of that level, the Snow Fox could be defeated by only relying on the Snow Fox or even Will, and it was impossible for the other six ships to risk touching the ice floes.
It was clear from the field of vision that although the child's face was full of excitement, his defense was already a little impatient, and it seemed that the continuous beating made him feel impatient, and he wanted to fight back, but the pirate's barely spaced shelling made him have to defend forcefully.
At this time, Genevia also ran out panting with a cotton coat, and it was really hard for her to run so fast dressed like a ball.
"Cloth, Blue...... Give it to you, give you a padded coat ......"
"Oh, okay, you can approve it for me. Sojers didn't put down his binoculars, his eyes fixed on the area of the battle.
Gently draped the cotton coat over Sorges's body, Genevia asked about the current situation, but although she couldn't see the specific scene clearly, she could still guess that the child was still struggling to support the sound of artillery fire in the distance.
"I'm not very optimistic, it's very rare to be able to hold on to the strength of the first order until now, in fact, I don't understand, even if it's a pirate, how can he target such a prey, there is no oil and water if he wins, and it's even more embarrassing to lose. Sojes was also puzzled as he recounted the battle, as he said, even if he wanted to rob, he had to grab a target with oil and water, and what was the matter with snatching a child? Could it be that the pirates had taken a fancy to the boy's magic staff? Or had they guessed from the staff in his hand that he was either rich or noble, and wanted to capture the child and extort a ransom from his family?
But in any case, whether it is Sojes or the rest of his companions, they all feel disgusted by the practices of this pirate ship, the so-called gentleman has something to do, and he has not done something, even if the pirate is bad, he is unwilling to touch some things, even those pirates who are keen on killing will rarely know that the opponent is a child and will force his hand.
It is no longer a moral issue to shoot at a child, and doing this kind of thing already means that the person's humanity has been completely degraded!
"Can the Snow Fox catch up?" Genevia's small hand shrunk in her sleeve shook gently, although she became a pirate without regrets, she still maintained a bit of kindness, naturally she didn't want a child to die under the fire of pirates.
But they didn't know that the pirates on the other side were also suffering.
"Boss, let's get out of here, didn't you see seven more ships coming over there!"
A strong man who looked very similar to the captain of the ship pulled the captain's shirt and roared at him, and although the sailors around him were not resentful, their faces were already showing retreat.
"Smack"
The captain rudely slapped the strong man's hand away, although he looked almost the same as the strong man, and dressed exactly the same, but the people on the ship could still clearly distinguish their identities.
Although the strong man's face was violent, but there was only violence, and the captain's face was only greedy! But he was greedy but still very smart, and it was a little different from what Sojes guessed, although the captain was seeking money, he didn't see the magic wand in his hand to see the wealth, he just saw the kid in a small boat and guessed his origin from either rich or noble.
After all, there are still a few people who dare to go to sea alone to the depths of the Polar Ice Ocean, and if they didn't have a certain strength, I'm afraid they would have died a long time ago.
I had the strength to sail a boat alone to this position, and this person was still a child......
There are not many children with a certain strength, but there are not many children who have the strength and dare to go to sea by themselves, and among these children, the vast majority of them are from the kind of big aristocratic families, and only such a family background will make these children who have been bored for a long time want to come out and find some excitement.
Interests can generate motivation and can also influence a person's rationality, and the captain of this ship is the latter.
He was very clever, and he judged the child's rich and noble origin by just a few clues.
But he is also very stupid, knowing that the other party will definitely come from a big aristocratic family, and he dares to provoke the other party with such a meager power, obviously he has completely ignored the consequences of being completely exterminated by the bitter lord after blackmail.
"How can I have such a timid brother as you! Everyone, fire at that pirate ship with all your might, and don't stop without my orders!"
The captain pushed his twin brother away, ignoring his dissuasion, and took the Snow Fox as a target, and then ordered to approach the ship, hoping to capture the target before the Dragontooth Pirates could fully arrive, and then use his familiarity with the nearby waters to escape from the Dragontooth Pirates.
"That pirate group is definitely from the outside of the sea, even if their ship is fast, they can't catch up with the battleship built by the Winter Country to adapt to the environment in the harsh sea area of the Polar Ice Ocean!" the captain thought in his heart, he was not wrong in his thoughts, but he missed the other party's two magic ships that could ignore the harsh waters here.
Underestimating the enemy often leads to their own destruction, the captain underestimated the Dragon's Tooth Pirate Regiment, and also underestimated the child he regarded as his prey, the rabbit can bite people when he is forced to be in a hurry, not to mention this child who is not as docile as the rabbit? Not to mention that this child is also a first-order magician!
The transfer of artillery fire gave this child a chance to breathe, the previous bombardment without intervals made him tired to deal with, and the mana that was not abundant was also consumed to the point of being nearly exhausted, and now looking at the enemy ship that was slowly approaching him, this child who had been coming of age for a long time actually showed a fierce light.
"Get closer, get closer, get closer, and I'll hit you!"
The child sat on the boat without any movement, and his only thought now was to desperately recover his mana, and wait until the enemy ship entered the attack range before returning them for their disrespect.
I don't know what the child thinks, and even if he did, the captain of the pirate ship wouldn't take him seriously, or rather, he didn't have the energy to think about the child at all, all because of ......
Snow Fox ...... Here it comes!
