"They told us to retreat to the northeast, join Lieutenant Colonel Kelly's flotilla, and then break through from the north, where we were met by someone!"

The observer on the lookout continued to shout. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

The sailors below heard his shout, and their ambitions to fight to the death were stunned.

At this moment, these exhausted soldiers, hearing the shouts of the observer, as if grasping a life-saving straw, all stopped their movements and looked in the direction pointed by the observer.

Since there is a way to live, no one wants to choose death.

This is a survival instinct that all living beings possess.

What to do?

Do you continue to carry out Colonel Demps's orders, or do you follow orders from distant allies!

Now that Colonel Demps was unconscious, and most of the officers in the fleet had long since been killed in the battle, the few remaining sailors looked at an old sailor, who was now the only officer among them.

A junior veteran sergeant.

The veteran was not nervous about the heavy load, he had the poise that an old man should have.

Maybe it's because the veteran has seen worse than this.

"Can you confirm that it's our own fleet?" the old young sailor was vigilant, motioning for a young man next to him to call out to the lookout on the heights.

"I'm sure they're all human, and they're using the same flag that we only use in our most urgent moments!"

The lookout picked up the navigation scope again and looked closely, and after confirming that it was correct, he reported to the veteran hand below.

"Captain..."

A seriously wounded naval soldier, leaning right next to the veteran, who was supposed to be a friend of the veteran, shouted with great difficulty, he probably wanted to say something, but as soon as he opened his mouth, blood spurted out of his mouth.

The old sailor patted his friend on the shoulder, and then realized that he understood!

Immediately, the old sailor turned his head again, and he could clearly feel the demands of the soldiers as he looked at him with hopeful eyes.

Finally, he glanced in the direction of the ship's cabin, where Colonel Demps was now lying.

"Pull the sails, turn the rudder, and retreat to the northeast!"

He made a decision.

-----------

Temples felt like he was in the middle of hell and heaven.

Because, for a while, he felt as if he was being tortured by the legendary demon in hell, which made his whole body painful.

But after a while, it seemed to be in heaven, and the place where he was still in pain just now seemed to be illuminated by the sun's rays in winter, which made people warm and comfortable.

"Colonel!"

"Colonel Demps!"

Suddenly, Demps heard what seemed to be a voice coming from the void.

The sounds are very familiar.

Someone is calling him!

"I'm sleeping?" thought Colonel Demps in his head!

"I should wake up!" he thought again.

Immediately, the colonel subconsciously opened his eyes.

Harsh light, humble ceilings, the fishy smell of the sea breeze, and a surging crowd!

"Colonel!"

The voice just now came again!

Demps turned his head to see that it was Lieutenant Commander Kelly, the commander of the First Fleet.

Perhaps because of his size and loudness, Demps saw him first, and then the Colonel subconsciously shifted his gaze.

Lieutenant Colonel Ender, Major Leon, Major Barlandel, and many more are in sight.

Demps moved, but the pain in his chest caused a cold sweat to break out on his forehead.

"Colonel, I advise you not to move for the time being!"

An unfamiliar voice rang in Colonel Demps's ears.

The Colonel turned his head and, in his vague memory, remembered who this man was, one of the magicians that Viscount Cage had sent to him.

"Colonel, your injuries are severe, and thanks to this magician, it was his medicine that saved your life!" Major Leon explained.

Colonel Demps's eyes flickered, and he looked down in thought for a while.

Being able to be in a room with these people at the same time means a lot in itself.

Immediately, he raised his head again and swept through the crowd, his gaze resting on Barandel for a moment, then at his first mate, Lieutenant Colonel Ender, and asked, "Tell me, what's going on!"

"We've met a man who has the power to get us out of the way and save you at the same time!"

Lieutenant Colonel Ander knew what his superiors wanted to know, and he answered the question clearly and quickly.

Colonel Demps was stunned, and glanced at everyone again, and Major Barandel silently grimaced at his friend.

"There is only one person with such abilities in this sea!" Colonel Demps kept his face calm, "It's the pirate Bart, right?"

Temple's gaze fell on Lieutenant Colonel Ender's face.

"Yes, Colonel. ”

Lieutenant Colonel Ender didn't want to answer the question himself, but Demps kept his eyes on him, and he had to answer stubbornly, but he continued: "But it's a mutual decision!"

He wanted to put his relationship aside, he didn't want his immediate boss to think that he was in collusion with pirates, you know, the pirate Bart had been rumored to be in collusion with some people in the army of Seka City!

"The situation at the time, we..."

Major Leon wanted to add something, but Colonel Demps waved his hand to stop the other man's next words.

Colonel Demps's mind was a mess, and he didn't want more things to disturb his thoughts.

He was ready to die, and his plan was to trade his own death in exchange for the remaining strength of the Seca Navy to evacuate the doomed battle.

Now like this, I don't know if it's good or bad.

Colonel Demps sighed inwardly.

"Bart, I need to see him!"

The Colonel decided not to think about the troublesome things, he needed to take care of the things in front of him.

"He's out there!"

Hearing this, Major Leon turned to leave, and he personally went outside to invite Bart...

Bart was very thin, a head shorter than a normal adult man, and was simply a skinny version of a dwarf, but he was very handsome in appearance, and he dressed even more elaborately than the nobles.

When he walked into the room, Colonel Demps was already on his feet with the help of his men, but from the cold sweat that was oozing from his forehead, it was clear that Demps was only holding on.

He didn't want to make himself too ugly in front of this Bart.

"Colonel Demps!"

Bart saluted like a nobleman.

"Bart... Sir!"

Demps really didn't know what to call each other.

"You can just call me Bart, Colonel. ”

Bart said.

"So, Mr. Bart!" Colonel Demps nodded, but his salutation remained the same, "I thank you for your help, you..."

"Colonel!" Bart interrupted Colonel Demps, who clearly knew what his old rival was trying to say, and preemptively said, "I'm on the side of the human kingdom!"

"Mr. Bart!" Colonel Demps nodded, "I have no intention of offending you, I wish to ask you something!"

The colonel was clearly about to say something unpleasant.

"Of course, I'll tell you everything I know, Colonel!"

Bart kept his usual smile.

"With your strength, there's no way you'll be able to save us from an orc fleet unless you're well prepared!" said Colonel Demps, observing Bart's expression.

"Can I understand this..."After a pause, the Colonel continued after seeing that Bart did not have any change in expression, "Obviously, you knew in advance that we would have a big battle with the orcs here!"
