Chapter 9: Ambush on All Sides

"Aren't the big guys busy? Why ......?"

"Hmm......"

In the darkness, the girl's eyes lit up. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"Because he wants to win......"

......

"We're not going well. ”

"Really?"

Dressed in a white shirt with ornate lace trim on the cuffs and neckline, the man sat by the window with a cup of coffee and glanced out at the city at night.

"Actually, there are a lot of good sailors in the city, but I want to ......"

"Say your conclusion," the man took a sip of his coffee, frowning, as if he couldn't stand the bitterness, "you're wasting your time." ”

"Sorry, I just wanted to say that we were wasting our time staying in this city. ”

"Do you know Magellan?"

The man smiled, and he could see a hint of disdain on the face of the man standing in front of him when he heard the name.

"I don't understand, it's ...... with us staying here"

"It has a lot to do with it, or rather, in a way you can understand," the man put the cup on the table at hand, "and that's the only reason we're staying in this city." ”

"......"

"It's not surprising that you would think so, I didn't arrange for you to attend my meeting with him. ”

"I have no objection to your decision, Mr. Francis, but His Holiness the Pope takes this voyage very seriously......"

"Your Majesty has never questioned my plans, do you know what the goal of this voyage is?"

"That's good. ”

The man watched as the cardinal turned to leave, and then, when the door opened, he said, "If next time, you want to waste my time like this, I will kill you." ”

The bishop said nothing and left in silence.

The room was silent again.

......

"What do they want to do?"

The group of people who had come with the gold had already left, but they had left the gold and piled it up in the leaky tavern on all sides.

William looked at the drunks with golden eyes, and reluctantly asked each of them to grab a handful of gold coins and leave.

There was still a large pile of gold coins left in the tavern at the end, so dazzling that it was impossible to look at them directly, and although those present were able to restrain their desires, they were blinded by the shining light.

"Their fleet is recruiting sailors. ”

"What does that have to do with courage?"

The fire in William's heart stirred again.

"Who knows......"

"I heard...... old Jack mysteriously approached William Jr., "they said while they were drinking, that a madman told the Pope that he was going to the other side of the sea to the west to give science land, and that the Pope would take him to the king of the world......"

"And then he had all this gold, which was the tip of the tail of a fat mouse, and he even had thirteen galleons, otherwise why would they recruit sailors?"

"Liar! Bragging! No way!"

"You can't read, you must say so, the kings of the world have issued decrees......"

"That's right, those explorers are always looking for trouble, and it's because of that decree that they ran out!"

A group of people gathered around the pile of gold coins and drank and bragged, they didn't believe what they said at all, but every time the reflection of the gold coins shone on their faces, the fire in everyone's hearts grew stronger.

......

"I'm here to light the flames, Magellan, ambition brings change, change means chaos, and you, always have that kind of friend who hates chaos. ”

The man placed his half-drunk coffee on the table and stood up.

"Long time no see. ”

"Long time no see. ”

Magellan silently jumped into the room through the window and nodded to Francis.

"You ......"

Francis was not able to finish the sentence, and Magellan raised his sword.

The roar of the sea monster echoed through the small room, and the golden sea blade hummed.

Then the blade was blocked by the white light.

“...... Again, Magellan, I'm not asking you to do the same to everyone, but at least, don't be like a rough god who can't even finish his words. ”

Magellan didn't say anything, and then the white light shattered silently.

But Magellan did not find a chance to make a move, and a group of knights stopped him.

It was a team of papal paladins who were in perfect agreement, wearing chain mail and armed with scimitars, and rushed towards Magellan in three groups.

At the same time, a group of devout men began to unleash miracles, some to protect Francis, others to strengthen the knights.

"I've really been waiting for you too long. ”

Magellan didn't say anything, just swung his sword sideways.

The blade of the sea cut through the wall effortlessly, reaching the knight's waist almost instantly, but before slicing through the chain mail, the longsword stopped.

"You said, Magellan, that more people is always better than less. ”

It was the magic of the devout that blocked the blades, and the Holy See was very adept at dealing with objects with divinity, and they stood above Magellan's head and at his feet, completely surrounding the uninvited guests who came to the third floor alone, weaving together a web of death.

"Hmph. ”

The knight's scimitar was about to touch Magellan's arm.

Then with the unwilling roar of the sea monster, the blade dissipated.

A series of crisp sounds of metal clashing erupted, ending with a muffled grunt.

Magellan's left arm was wounded, but his opponent was even more wounded, and the knights even left three bodies on the ground.

Magellan took a step forward.

Then a scimitar struck from behind him.

"I'm really curious, are you so proud that you think that you still have an absolute advantage in the face of the strongest force in the Holy See, or are you so inferior that you think that even after doing so many things, the Holy See will still not go all out against you?"

The knight who stabbed the cutlass at Magellan was already a corpse.

The Holy See does not have a miracle of resurrecting the dead, but it can restore the incapacitated knight instantly, which is something that the famous combination of the "Pure Order" and the "Knights of Consecration" can do, and only the powerful evil forces declared "Satan" by the Holy See are qualified to see such miracles.

At that moment, Magellan saw it.

The knight's sneak attack did not end the battle, but he gave his companion a chance, and Magellan stopped once more and removed his sword aimed at Francis.

"Magellan, it's amazing and desperate that you can win against ten professional soldiers who have a tacit understanding," Francis walked to the door and opened it, "but human creation is full of infinite possibilities, you see, now I have a hundred people surrounding you, and they will not interfere with each other...... Of course, in order to save time, let a living saint end this pleasant meeting. ”

Behind the door stood a tall, handsome, fully armored man armed with a surprisingly long metal riding spear.

Magellan remembered Count Reinhardt.
