Chapter 64: Paladin Al Schat
On June 18, 1196 in the Western calendar, this should have been an ordinary day, but because of someone...... Uh, or should I say that there is a certain force that has caused a sensation in the nine seas, well, a little sensation.
In the Splashing Wind Islands, located in the northwest of the Hedron Sea, the Dragon's Tooth Pirate Regiment was waiting nearby, except for Sojers, who looked relaxed, the rest of the people were a little nervous.
Today is the day to extort ransom from those nobles of the St. Quentin Empire, there are 19 noble children kidnapped by them last time, and 5,000 gold coins per person is a small income of 100,000, of course, such a large sum of money cannot be eaten by the Dragon Tooth Pirate Group alone.
Therefore, in order to be able to get out of this trip, Sojes deliberately found a good relationship with the Ghost Flame Pirate Group, and the head of the group, Urucci, was also happy, and agreed without any objections, and according to Sojes's proposal, he found a pirate ally with good strength, and this pirate group is also a little famous, that is, the Iron Heart Pirate Group that drove the arrogant Captain Lauren out of the team before.
Speaking of the Iron Heart Pirates, Sorges can't help but want to laugh when he thinks of them, no way, the team is basically full of muscle sticks, but their leader is a big beauty, but this beauty's personality is more gentlemanly than the real man...... Perhaps it was this character that did not make this leader named Kairol among the "Pirate Three".
Pirate Sanmei: There are also many female pirates on the sea, among which there are three of the most gorgeous women who are respected by the pirates as Sanmei, although they are not as powerful as the Eighth Order, but they still have good strength, at least not worse than the current Sojes.
The three pirate groups combined for a total of thirteen ships, in addition to the four ships of the Dragon's Fang, the three ships of the Ghost Flame and the seven ships of the Iron Heart were all waiting around the vicinity of the Splashing Wind Islands, they were waiting, not waiting for the nobles of St. Quentin to come and pay the ransom, but waiting for them to attack first, so that there would be a reason to take them down. Well, that's what the so-called teacher is famous.
They didn't wait too long, probably only half an hour, and St. Quentin's fleet sailed from the east, but unlike what they expected, the flagship at the front was obviously more oppressive than the rest of the warships, and when Carol raised her binoculars with a cautious face to carefully observe the flag hanging on the battleship, she was even more shocked to be so bold, she had several years of pirate experience, and she could naturally recognize what the flag with the cross sword painted on the white background represented.
That is the pride of the St. Quentin Empire, the Seven Heroes of the Navy - the Holy Cross of the Holy Cross of the Holy Knight Alschat, the cross star sword is the sword in his hand, because of the brilliant record, the Pope specially ordered this flag for him, the flag is there, and Alsart is there.
Speaking of Alsart, there are almost no shortcomings, he is a sixth-order peak warrior, both in command and personal combat power are second to none, not only that, but also in the wind is also a military model praised by everyone, for the reputation of pirates without mercy, but for the very few excesses of pirates will be open, he believes that judging whether a person has committed a crime should not be judged by the other party's profession, but by the other party's behavior.
It is precisely because of this that even if the pirates are afraid of him, they will still give a heartfelt thumbs up when they mention the name Al Schat.
It is precisely because of this, although Carol was a little shocked when she saw this flag, she didn't feel anything after the shock, but wondered why someone like Al-Shar appeared on such an occasion.
In fact, this is the basket that Sojes poked out himself, the aristocratic boy he let go before was the younger brother of one of the captains under the command of Al Schat, and after learning what happened, his resolute face actually showed a strange expression, and even his subordinates did not know what this expression meant.
However, what surprised his subordinates even more was his decision to personally lead the nobles to meet the pirate leader, but in the eyes of the subordinates, Arschat's decision was just to prevent the pirates from being insatiable and continuing to target the country's nobles after collecting the ransom.
On the other hand, when Sojes heard from Will that the magic ship in front of him was Al Schat's exclusive warship, the expression on his face was no different from that of Al Saud at the beginning, and Will and the others were only nervous when he was facing the Navy Seven British, but his expression was a little special.
"Shuais, tell several of our allies not to attack St. Quentin's fleet, whatever Arsat does next. ”
The strange expression on his face was still there, and this order also made several major backbones on the Xianglong confused, and in the trust of the regimental commander, Cervantes still informed Urucci and Cairol through the flag.
"Damn it, what are the dragon's tooth imps up on!"
Cairol cursed after seeing the flag, but this is also a sign of habit, and she herself knows that if it is only Al Shara herself, then it can still be defeated with the strength of three pirate groups, but the current situation is that Al Sart and his Aegis magic ship have arrived, plus the rest of the ships of St. Quentin, there is absolutely no advantage in fighting hard, and even, the chance of defeat is greater.
Aegis: As the name suggests, this is a defensive-focused ship with strong defense, and its strong defense allows the crew on board to have no worries about artillery fire from ordinary battleships, and even powerful firepower like the Rattlesnake cannot break through the Aegis's defensive barriers.
With this ship here, except for the Dragontooth Pirate Regiment's Xianglong that can match it, even Kairol's B-class magic weapon ship Killer Whale can't do much damage to the Aegis, not to mention that there is a sixth-order pinnacle Al Saud on board. Strong attack, strong defense, this is the characteristics of Al Schat.
"Have the nobles paid the ransom?" Aegis, Al Schat, with his hands behind his back, stared intently in the direction of the Splashing Wind Islands. Behind him, the immediate adjutant, who had been guarding his back, replied after hearing his questioning:
"It's all been sent to the Aegis, but they've been urging the Colonel to move faster, better ......," the adjutant's tone became a little hesitant.
"What's best?" Al-Saud's tone was still so sad and joyless, but the adjutant had long been accustomed to it, and after a moment of hesitation, he replied, "They said that it was best to destroy the pirates who dared to attack their family after they rescued their family's children." "Huh!"
Alsart laughed, with undisguised mockery in his laughter, then shook his head and sighed:
"The younger generations don't know how to go to sea, and it was expected to meet pirates, with their arrogant attitude, they should be content to pick up their lives like today, although the pirates are asking for a lot of money this time, but this is not an excuse for us not to keep our promises. ”
The adjutant should be respectful, but he still had some disapproval in his heart, in his opinion, pirates are originally a criminal group, so for crimes, where do we need to take too much into account? Just try them all, why do pirates commit crimes, and our navy still has to stick to the bottom line?
The strength has reached the level of Al Schat, and he can feel the change in the mentality of the people nearby like a war chanter, guessing what the adjutant thinks, and Al Sart sighed in his heart: It is because the navy is slowly doing things without leaving a bottom line, so there will be more and more corruption in the San Quentin Empire, even the law enforcers, so how can you complain about the increasing number of pirates?
The navy should have been like Long Yuanguo, only to defend the country and fight to protect the civilians, and the soldiers who have no bottom line are not worthy of wearing the military uniform with the imperial insignia at all!
That would only make the emblem of empire less dazzling.
