Chapter 164: Shipwreck

"Your Excellency—"

The knight bowed and raised Perru from his musings. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info

"What's going on?"

The chief knight who was disturbed by his thoughts was not angry, he knew his men very well, and it must be a very important thing for him to make the decision to "wake up the chief".

"A shipwreck has been found on the harbor, not our ship sunk by the fishmen, but a warship of a strange style. ”

"Battleship?"

Warships are not ordinary ships, not only huge and sturdy, but also extremely powerful for long-distance navigation and armed combat.

"Yes, according to eyewitnesses, the bow of the wreck has ramming angles and laminated decks, and it should have been a battleship. ”

The ramming horn has a very strong texture and is unusually heavy, and no captain with a brain pump would put such a thing in his bow except for a large warship.

Stacked decks are movable multi-deck decks, which are basically standard on warships.

"What did Chief Tyne say?"

Although he hates Tyne's idiot very much, after all, the other party is the head of the garrison of Sirno Town, and represents the armed forces of Sirno Town, and some things still need to be discussed with him.

If he makes a move to seize power, Lord Mogg will definitely suspect that he has ulterior motives.

"Uh......"

The soldier did not know how to answer the commander's question, and if he told the truth, he was not sure if he would be angered.

"If you have something to say, how do you say it?"

"Your Excellency the Garrison Commander said...... said that he was frightened, depressed, and could not handle government affairs for the time being, so he ...... For the time being, you are solely responsible for the affairs of Sirno. ”

"Hmph!" Perru let out a disdainful snort, feeling more and more disdainful of the timid Tyne, "It's pretty clean, I don't know how the lord could look down on such a thing!"

"Call the cavalry of the first squad, set off with me, let the others continue to search here, and don't let go of anything suspicious!"

"Yes—"

......

The rough waves and the wreckage of the wreck came into the soldiers' field of vision at the same time.

Several villagers gathered there, and dispersed as soon as they saw the knight appear.

"Go," Peru grabbed the reins, the neighborhood was empty, "search the surroundings carefully and see if anything suspicious." ”

The riders rolled over and dismounted, leaving their horses to rest on the grass beside the rocks, and they walked steadily across the sand, warily scanning everything around them.

As the soldiers approached the wreck, one of them let out a low cry: "This ship has not hit the rocks!"

"That's right," a companion next to him responded, "It looks more like it's going into a storm." ”

Perru stepped forward, took a closer look at the shipwreck, and agreed with his men's judgment.

Boats that run aground on the rocks will be smashed to pieces, and even the worst ones will be turned into pieces of various sizes in the horizontal cracks, after all, there will be no mercy in the churning waves and the ubiquitous water.

As for the one in front of you?

It's just a broken bow.

However, there was no storm last night, just a light wind, how did it get here?

"Oh my God, look at the bow of the ship, what's painted on it?"

The soldier's exclamation interrupted Perru's thoughts, and he suppressed the doubts in his mind and turned his attention to the sunken ship again.

The bow of the wreck was high on the reef, the crash horns were broken in two, and the waves crashed against the bottom of the ship.

Below deckline, the hull was painted dark green, shining in the sun, as if the surface had been painted with a smooth glaze.

The intricate light yellow ornamentation replaces the usual sculpture on the bow of the ship, and the black bottom of the ship becomes more mysterious.

A few feet behind the bow of the ship was painted with a large blue and white eye, and all the fences on the entire deck were painted white, with blue spots on them.

The broken mast rolls in the foam of the waves.

Seeing this scene in front of him, the expression on Perru's face became more and more solemn: a mysterious and powerful force tore the mast of the battleship, broke the bow of the ship, and threw the wreckage onto the reef.

Will it be a storm?

Perroux wasn't sure, he didn't know much about the sea, and the guards at the harbor hadn't mentioned the storm near the shoreline yesterday.

The chief knight and his soldiers cautiously stepped forward to inspect the fragments tumbling between the waves and the reef, broken ceramics, wooden planks, broken and tattered canvas, tangled ropes......

Perru paused and picked up a strange-looking dagger.

The dagger was made of an unfamiliar metal, emitting a darker gray glow than steel, and the coldness emanating from the edge of the blade told the peeper that it had the sharpness to pierce through armor.

Some soldiers tried to climb the railing, but they couldn't find a suitable place to stay on the smooth reef.

With his dagger stowed, Perru alone explored the wreckage until he realized that his hunting pants were at risk of getting wet by the waves.

"If we can climb that raised cliff, we can go up to the deck. ”

Pointing to the cliff not far away, the chief knight pointed to his soldiers, and a rock protruded twenty feet to their left, stretching upwards to the top of the hull.

It didn't seem difficult to climb, and the soldiers nodded and followed their commander as they climbed up the cliff.

The road was narrow, and the soldiers carefully took each step to avoid rolling down together.

"Corpses?"

Perru's party finally reached the top of the hull and were able to see everything on deck.

On the deck lay two men, dressed in rusty light blue armor, one of whose head had been smashed by the remnants of a fallen mast, and the other lying face down on the deck, no scars visible from his body from Perru's current angle.

He wore a horned helmet on his head, a porcelain texture that shone like fire, and a broadsword was sashed behind his body, and a peculiarly shaped dagger pinned to his waist.

"I'll go down first, and then you throw the sword to me, and the others pay attention!"

Perru handed the sword at his waist to a soldier beside him, and then carefully groped his way down.

His face and knees pressed against the almost vertical cliff face, slowly sliding down until his entire body was almost in the air, before he let go and jumped off the deck.

The moment he landed, Perru rolled over and took a few steps back after getting up, and then regained his balance.

The soldier threw the matching sword back to his commander, and slowly slid down as the other followed, and the others followed suit, sliding down one by one.

A third of the hourglass time had passed, and all the soldiers were standing on the deck safely.
