Volume 1 Money Empire Chapter 0075 Escape at Sea
"My time does not allow me to be too complicated, to put it simply, you must know Anubarak, I am here to take everything from you, including your life. Downing glanced back at the calm sea level, he was worried about something, and he had to save as much time as possible.
When he heard the familiar name, all emotions on Gaitan's face disappeared, and he stood in place with an expressionless face, he did not expect to be able to hear this name again.
"Judging by your reaction, it seems that you remember something, so I don't need to waste time repeating it, and then I have to find a good way to punish you. Downing looked at the rope on the side of the ship and swept his gaze to the rest of his entourage. "Ladies and gentlemen, if you don't want this paladin to have your throat slit out, do me a favor and untie the rope and tie up your master. ”
The attendants looked at the young man hesitantly, and Cybertron looked back at Downing angrily. "I'm not going to do that, and even if they do a mistake, they should be punished by the law, not lynched. "The paladin still believes that the law is just, just like the Holy See in which he believes in betrayers are only a part.
Tang Ning had long expected this paladin to say this, and said with a sly smile: "Honest paladin, you have to listen to me, otherwise I won't find a way to clear your name." ”
Cybertron glared at Downing angrily, finally choosing his innocence between the two and making a compromise.
"The clever paladin made the right choice. Downing quipped, looking at the servants, who, faced with the threat, chose to untie the ropes from the side of the ship and walked towards Gaitan.
Gaitan panicked. "Fools, what are you going to do, I'm your master. ”
The servants only hesitated, and soon one of them pounced on him and threw him to the ground, while the rest tied him up with ropes and brought him to Downing.
Looking at the blue sea, Downing said his purpose. "Gaitan, take out the pieces of the badge from you, and I'll make your death a happy one. ”
Gaitan's face changed dramatically, the young man knew not only Anubarak, but also the occult organization, and fear and anger were blended. "Who the hell are you?"
"Well, it looks like you don't want to hand over what I want. Downing snapped his fingers, staring at the sharks surrounding the merchant ships. "We've got to play a game of fishing. ”
Cybertron chose to ignore it for the sake of its innocence.
The servants slowly lowered Gaitan from the side of the ship, following the young man's orders, his fingers separated and the blood dripping into the ocean as he approached the surface, and the huge fins of the sea gathered below, waiting for a good meal.
"I don't want to die, let me go. Gaitan looked at the fins on the surface of the sea below and shouted.
Downing was lying on the side of the ship. "Mr. Gaitan, you don't have much of a chance, if you want to hand over the badge fragment, remember to let me know. ”
"I'm willing, pull me up. Gaitan relented in order to survive.
Soon Gaitan was pulled up, his face pale, and Tangning waited for the other party to speak.
"I can give you all my riches, spare me, please. Gaitan made a sincere request, knowing that the young man would do whatever it takes.
"I want that badge fragment. Downing re-emphasized.
Gaitan fell to his knees, looking panicked. "I don't know what badge fragments, I have the gold of the rich country, and it will be yours from now on. ”
Downing lost patience. "Okay, put him down. ”
The minions once again lowered Gaitan to the side of the ship, this time Downing did not respond to any of Gaitan's screams, and when Gaitan was close enough to the surface, a shark jumped.
"Ahh
The screams were terrifying, and a piece of flesh was torn off Gaitan's left shoulder, and blood sprayed on the sea.
"Pull it up. "Downing issued the order.
The blood made the sharks more excited and jumped, but when Gaitan was pulled up a little, the bloodthirsty beasts' jumps were in vain.
Gaitan finally relented. "Pull me up, I'll say anything. ”
Pulling Gaitan up, the servants looked at the wound on their master's shoulder with fearful expressions.
"Tell me, this is your last chance, you've exhausted my patience. Downing gave an ultimatum. "I know what you're waiting for, the pirates aren't coming that fast. ”
When Gaitan heard about the pirates, he knew that he could not hide everything from this young man, and dared to board the Oriental merchant ships with a large amount of gold, precisely because he had reached an agreement with the pirates, and when the time came, several pirate ships would come to pick him up in person. The main reason for being able to make deals with those pirate leaders is the mysterious organization hiding behind the fragments of the badge.
The last psychological defenses were breached, and Gaitan revealed the whereabouts of the pieces of the badge, in his own cabin.
"Cybertron, it's your turn, we need to hurry, the pirates won't let you go just because you're a paladin. Downing gave the order to Cybertron, who had walked to the other side of the ship to avoid it all.
Cybertron glanced at the calm sea level in the distance, he had changed his opinion of the young man, and he was a little disgusted. "Don't try to lie to me, the pirates won't come here, get what you want, you have to fulfill your promise to get me away, and we won't have anything to do with it after that. ”
"I will keep my promise. Downing replied to the paladin.
Soon Cybertron found the badge from the place in the cabin where Gaitan had said and brought it out. "There's something weird about this badge and it seems to have some supernatural powers. "His light has found some clues.
Looking at the paladin who held the fragment without any change, Downing's guess was right, Cybertron's holy light was indeed able to suppress the counterattack of the mysterious organization hidden in the badge fragment, it was wise to turn to this paladin for help, which was also the most important reason why he did everything possible to deceive the paladin into cooperating, he would not make the mistake he made on the badge fragment in Alkmaar again.
Taking the badge, Tang Ning took it into his arms. "Gaitan has quite a few supernatural power owners around him, and maybe they're just doing something about it. ”
"Damn it, you got what you wanted, now let me go. The bleeding Gaitan roared angrily, he was on the verge of collapse.
Don Rather had no intention of letting the other go. "I'm sorry, I just said I'd make your death a pleasure. ”
In a furious shout, Gaitan was thrown into the sea, where the mad sharks tore the once rich man to shreds, and the sea was soaked in blood.
With everything out of the way, it's time to turn around the merchant ship and head back to the Gold Coast.
Before Downing could give an order, however, a servant pointed to a black spot on the surface of the sea. "What's that?"
Downing looked at the rapidly approaching black dot on the sea, of course he knew what it was, the pirate ship that had taken up Gaitan, they had already arrived, faster than he had imagined.
You must escape as soon as possible and return to the Gold Coast, where there is no kingdom's fleet on the sea, and the kingdom's fleet only patrols along the coastline.
"If you don't want to die, wake up the others, turn around, hurry up, and carry out the order. Downing looked at the rapidly approaching black dots on the sea, and no one knew better than him how fast the pirate ship was.
In the face of Tangning's somewhat hasty order, the unwitting servants felt that there was too much fuss, and there was no more frightening than the young man in front of them, and they quickly carried out the order.
It's just that the potion still has some time to work, and the crew in the east can't be woken up, and the few remaining people can't adjust the heavy sails, which means that the huge merchant ship can't change course.
At the speed at which the black dot was approaching, it wouldn't be long before the pirates were able to board the ship.
At this time, some trade-offs had to be made, Downing had originally planned to bring back the gold, which was a huge fortune, but now he had to abandon the ship and leave.
"Put the escape boat down, hurry. Downing urged.
The unwitting servants had no choice but to do so, and when the escape boat was lowered into the sea, Downing jumped onto the escape boat. "We need to get out of here, Paladin. ”
Cybertron saw the rapidly approaching black dot, and it was a huge ship, a black giant ship, and thinking of the pirates that Downing had mentioned, the paladin jumped onto the escape ship.
The minions hesitated, thinking they didn't understand what the black ship meant, and now they just wanted to keep their distance from the terrible young man.
"Be voluntary, and if you don't want to leave, I won't force it. Downing gave the other party the freedom to choose.
In the end, the servants chose to stay on the merchant ship, and Downing respected their choice, a foolish decision. "Paladin, we have to row away. ”
Before this, he got several members of the Oriental crew to the lifeboat, and he had to ensure the endurance of the lifeboat, and there was no way for him and the paladin to row the lifeboat to the Gold Coast.
The two of them rowed the boat quickly, away from the giant ship, until the giant ship became blurred, and they could see that people had been thrown into the sea from the giant ship, apparently by the pirates, and the crew of the East and the servants of Gaitan were brutally killed.
Enjoying this scene, Downing reminded the paladin. "We need to row quickly, at least the coastline that we can see is safe enough, and there will be the kingdom's naval fleet to protect it. ”
An hour later, the ten members of the Oriental crew who had been put on the lifeboat woke up, and they did not understand what was happening.
"Guys, the merchant ship was attacked by pirates, I saved you, we have to go back to the Gold Coast and row the boats. Downing explained to the crowd through a crew member who could translate.
The unwitting sailors of the East were grateful to the young men of the West, and with these ten people rowing, Tangning could finally be freed.
Wiping the sweat from his whole body and looking at the coastline visible to the naked eye, Tang Ning breathed a sigh of relief.
"How did you know the pirates were going to be here?" said Cybertron, gasping for air and blushing.
"No one knows the pirates better than I do, and my uncle used to be like a brother to them. Downing leaned against the side of the lifeboat, looking at the merchant ships that had almost disappeared from sight.
"Your uncle used to be a pirate?" This was beyond Cybertron's expectations, the real identity of the young man in front of him was a little complicated, there seemed to be a lot of secrets, he remembered that Downing had said that his uncle had a holiday with AZ Alkmaar, but he didn't expect it to be a pirate, but this is a little difficult to understand, how the pirate had a holiday with AZ Alkmaar in Blotter City.
"That's right, one of my uncles was once the greatest pirate captain of the oceans. Downing saw the paladin's confusion and explained, "It's just another uncle, and I have many uncles. ”
This also explains the past, some people do have many uncles in large families, and Cybertron is back to business. "Tell me how you're going to clear my name. ”
From the beginning, Downing only said that he could clear his name, but never elaborated on the plan.
