Chapter Ninety-Two: The Golden Cicada Sheds Its Shell
The cannon hit a few meters from the stern of the ship, and the fireball went several meters deep into the water before it was extinguished, and the shock wave caused the ship to sway.
"Speed up faster!" shouted the captain of the ship, and the cannon scared him into the fire, and he was in danger of being hit.
But how did the passenger ship run past the warship, and the closer it got to Yora.
"I know! These killers actually used the navy of the Great Army Empire, it must be Prime Minister Zhu's people! His uncle's! He wanted to destroy the nine of us!" Luo Wen suddenly figured it out, only Prime Minister Zhu could mobilize the navy's warships for personal use, there was no doubt that he wanted to destroy the nine of them, and then replace them with others, and then replace them with his people.
"Boat boss, tell everyone to put down the boat and go to the boat in front, if you can't outrun them, don't worry, I will compensate you for this boat." Act now, I'm not waiting for you, tell your people to hurry. Luo Wen thought about it, a trick of the golden cicada shelling can buy everyone a little time.
"Little fat man, Xia Qiu, quickly tell everyone to get on the boat and go to the front boat. Luo Wen hurriedly called the little fat man and Xia Qiu to split up.
It didn't take long for everyone to get on the boat and go to the front boat, leaving only Rowan and the boat boss, as well as the little fat man.
"Alright, anchor. ”
The three of them dropped anchor together, and then Rowan put all the remaining fireworks in the ring on the deck, and the three of them got into the last boat and left.
In the wheelhouse on this warship.
"Boss, they seem to have stopped, it seems that the shot just now has worked. "One of the samurai at the helm was talking to the man who was playing with a dagger next to him.
"Sooner, I'll have to give them an account of being in the river tonight. The dagger warrior said viciously.
Saying that Luo Wen and the others all got on the bearded ship, Luo Wen told everyone his judgment, and the nine people gritted their teeth angrily.
"That old bastard!, did you offend him and did you do it so ruthlessly, and if I get a chance, I will definitely fix him ruthlessly!" Bao inquired angrily.
"I can't be sure now, but I should be eight or nine. Come on, brothers, go back and fix him!" Zach was angry, but still calm.
"Boss, what's next?" El asked.
"It's certainly not as fast as them on the water, but I got a little bit of a gift for them on the back boat that should delay a little bit. We sped forward and found a place to go ashore, and as soon as we were on land, they would be much less of a threat to us without the dragon cannons. After that, let's take the opportunity to act, there are not many people on the other side, only a dozen people, since more than a dozen of them dare to come and hunt us down, there must be a complete certainty, so everyone should not act alone in anything, including going to the toilet. ”
The women's faces were red, but they couldn't see them at night.
Everyone unanimously approved Loewen's plan, and the next step was to drive the distance at full speed until they reached the right pier and went ashore.
"Boom!" only one cannon sound was heard, and everyone saw the fireball from the dragon cannon directly hit the deck of the ship behind, and the deck burst into flames, burning hundreds of fireworks left behind by Loewen.
"Chirp...... Chirp...... "The fireworks exploded, and I saw that the whole ship was wrapped in the fireworks, and the sky was particularly beautiful by the colorful fireworks, and the white smoke released covered the river.
"What the hell is this? Stop moving forward, beware of deception!" ordered the Killer Boss.
The fireworks lasted for half an hour before they exploded, and the river was covered with white smoke, and nothing could be seen. The killer boss smelled the white smoke, pungent, and unpleasant.
"Be careful, poisonous!" the killer boss quickly wet the corners of his clothes and covered his mouth and nose.
When the river wind slowly blew away the white smoke, the killer boss ordered to move forward, and when he cautiously approached the boat and saw that there was no one on the boat, the killer boss realized that he had been fooled.
"Little brat, dare to play with me!
After such a cover of fireworks, the ship of Lovan and others has been far behind the warship, at this time the sky is almost dawn, after this night of noise, everyone is sleepy, but they can't sleep, because the next dock is about to abandon the ship ashore, and they have to rush desperately, can't sleep.
"It's here!" shouted the boat boss, and everyone was in good spirits, and they were finally going ashore.
Docked at the pier, everyone got off the ship one after another.
"Ship boss, I'm sorry to hurt you. There are two bags of gold coins here, take them, they are all for the sake of life, it is not easy for everyone to go back and have a good rest. I don't want the boat, I was caught up by them and blown up with a shot, let's go, have a safe journey, and see you again. ”
The captain of the ship took the two bags of gold coins given by Rowan and thanked him for his kindness, and led the sailors on the way back to the four northern cities.
Luo Wen, Bearded discussed with Steward Ding, and Miss Ma, and asked Miss Ma if she was willing to follow the White Ash Mercenary Group, after all, the killer's target was not them, and Miss Ma could actually lead her people to leave alone.
"No, I'd better go with you. Miss Ma thought about it, and Xia Qiu's shadow appeared in her mind, so she decided to go with everyone.
So the four of them deliberated and decided to leave all the cargo on board, taking only the carriage and horses with them. This mercenary mission was also a failure, and even the employer's goods were lost, but Luo Wen promised to give Miss Ma double compensation, and now Luo Wen has nothing but gold coins, and a ring full of gold coins is not used much at all.
Now that the decision has been made, Lovan and several magicians cast a spell together, setting the boat on fire and sinking to the bottom of the river, leaving no clues for the other party, hoping that this will buy everyone some more time.
The speed of the boat ride is fast, and it has already passed a city. According to the map and Steward Ding's statement, this place should be a small town between Night City and Yindu, and there should be half a day before Night City.
"Don't go to the town to see it, so as not to attract attention and leave clues for them, let's leave it like this, get into the carriage without horses, work hard for everyone, and rest again at night." ”
So everyone simply ate a little dry food and went on the road.
It is said that the killers have been chasing forward, although they have encountered several merchant ships, but none of them are Lowen and their ship.
"They can't run that fast, can they?" said the killer at the helm.
"Who knows, if their ship has been modified with a power system, let's chase a little more. The boss said, although he vaguely felt that they should not be so fast, but the duck that was really unwilling to get his hands flew away.
The warship did not see Lowen until it reached the dock of Yedu.
"These little bastards must have landed somewhere. Enter the city and tell the brothers to keep an eye on the gate of the city. ”
Rowan and the others ran wildly, and before the killers arrived at the night, they had already entered the city, and booked a hotel to rest for the night before leaving. Taking advantage of this night, Lovan intends to strike first!
Luo Wen quietly summoned the other eight people, and as soon as he told him about his plan, everyone nodded one after another, saying that they must not sit still, and then they were chased by the killers like this, even if they did not die, the brave man's will to fight would be worn out.
"Okay, that's it! his uncle!" said the little fat man angrily, he couldn't bear it anymore.
"Okay, I'll leave the matter of renting a house to you, Brother Bao. ”
"No problem, it will be done. ”
