In addition, the first volume will be over, and the second volume in these two days, a new and wonderful story will be unfolded in front of everyone, and Jack's second journey is about to begin. )
The five elders were sitting at each of the long tables, and when Turks kicked the door unfriendly, they all scrambled to call out to the guards outside.
Shahis, the oldest of the five white-bearded old men and the most "authoritative" of his words, could not sit idly by when someone wanted to offend authority. So he pretended to be calm and slapped the table hard, trying to hide the panic in his heart.
Why haven't the guards come yet?, Shahiss thought to himself.
This elder probably didn't expect that the group of soldiers who only had form but no reality would have been taken down by Turks in minutes. At this time, he may be rolling on the ground and covering his face.
"Calling someone, is it?" Turks stepped on the stool with one foot and grabbed the collar of Shahis's robe, "What do you think you can do with us with the ability of those shrimp soldiers and crab generals at the door?" ”
Ever since Turks hit this island, he has been full of ruffianism, especially when facing Officer Frank, the resentment he has suppressed in his heart can finally burst out. The elders in front of them, it was useless to call for help, so they had to sit quietly in their respective places, waiting for Jack's action without saying a word.
Jack seemed a little upset, and he pulled Tex aside and sat down on a stool.
At this time, the conference room was extremely quiet, so quiet that the elders who were usually high up could now only hear their own rapid heartbeat. In normal times, they were in charge of the lives and deaths of others, but now they are lambs to the slaughter.
"Elders, I, Jack, have no intention of offending, I just want to tell you that those who are traveling with me, we were shipwrecked, and in the end I was the only one who survived. So ......"
"So, why are so many people dead, but you are the only one who survived? A younger elder behind Shahiss chimed in.
Turks couldn't stand it, he had never been false in front of anyone, he was already distracted by a lot of things, and now he just wanted to come back with Jack to get a sword, and he was in so much trouble that he wanted to blow up this conference room because of it.
"Jack, what nonsense, just say it, believe it or not, whatever they are, I don't believe that there are still people stopping us when we want to leave. ”
But obviously, Jack has too many concerns, he doesn't want to leave so incomprehensibly, he walks simply, and his parents are going to suffer. This is something that Turks did not expect.
"Jack Seaver Bryan, think clearly, this matter must be entirely your responsibility, and no amount of justification can hide the fact that you are guilty. If you escape, it will be your parents who will suffer the crime, and they will accept the punishment of exile in your place. Seeing that Jack's face was still uneasy, Elder Shahiss immediately spoke.
Sure enough, he was right, and Jack began to hesitate.
"I ......"
"Jack, don't listen to these old things, it's a big deal that we'll take your parents with us! There's nothing in this damn place anyway, so you might as well go back to Tana and live in peace. What's the point of having to face the dictatorship of these old men every day here!?" said Turks, pushing a stunned Jack.
This sentence woke up Jack: I can't say it anyway, so why don't you leave it here?
"Elder Shahis, I would like to say just one last word. I have come back this time to finally get a dwelling right on the land for us Galans, I don't want you to stop me, maybe I am guilty, but the Old World is not what you imagined it to be, it is full of dangers and hidden killings, and I only have two months to return to the Old World to fight. It's up to you to decide whether or not to let my family be safe. Jack still hoped for the elders' understanding at the last minute, but he couldn't have been more wrong.
"So far, you still want to escape? How can we explain to so many people who are waiting for their relatives to come back? The bruises on your face are the best proof of this. Think about it, even the neighbor you want to be good to be disappointed in you, and you can see how sinful it is for you to come back safely. The Council of Elders will never tolerate such an act of you!" Shahiss was still doing his final persecution.
Jack touched the wound on his face from Worf's blow and buried his head deeply. He thought of Johnson, of the ship, of all the good life that had been.
Suddenly, there was a commotion outside the door.
"Quick, quick!"
"Don't let them go!"
Hurried footsteps were heard, trampling the deck messily and noisily.
Turks turned around, and his gaze met Frank as he arrived.
"Jack. ”
Jack turned around, and Frank was carrying a long sword and leading a group of soldiers in bronze armor to the door.
"Shout, wake up?" Tex, mocking Frank.
This Turks' subordinate was defeated, and he brought back twenty or thirty regular soldiers summoned from the warship, and looked at the two men menacingly.
When the elders saw that the rescuers were coming, they all hurried to the door, hid behind the soldiers, pointed to two people, and asked the soldiers to take them.
Turks actually didn't expect that there would be regular troops on Garland's ship, and it seemed to be very well-trained, he was also a little panicked, after all, he didn't have a good weapon in his hand now, how could he resist this group of well-equipped soldiers?
"Boy, don't take the sneak attack on me as defeating me, just rely on you, still tender, I see, your hair hasn't grown yet, hahaha" Frank looked up to the sky and laughed. It seems that the group of soldiers behind him is indeed a great encouragement to him.
However, Turks also saw a breakthrough in this. He calmly walked up to Frank. This made Frank take a step back, and Turks smiled softly when he saw this.
"Otherwise, let's go head-to-head? I won, I'll talk about today's events later, it just so happens that your soldiers are there, and you can prove yourself. How?"
Frank hesitated, glanced at the soldiers behind him, and then smiled: "Hmph, yes, I have the right to let you go." After speaking, he glanced at the elders and nodded.
So, surrounded by blades, Jack and Turks were led to the upper deck.
"Turks, be careful. Jack whispered.
Tex's mouth lifted and he didn't look back, took the sword the soldier had thrown over, and walked in front of Frank.
Officer Frank still did not give up the last chance to taunt: "Little handsome man, I think, should I give you a sword? I am worried that the sword I use will not have long eyes and will hurt you." ”
The soldiers laughed.
Tex also replied mercilessly: "I think, you will have multiple scars on the right side of your face tonight, but it wasn't caused by a half-dead baby shark, if it were me, I would have challenged a living adult shark." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Frank was furious, his most taboo was that others suspected that his merits were obtained for nothing, although he did not understand how he knew about it, but, tonight, he swore from his heart that he would behead this stinky boy in a different place!
It's too late, it's fast, this Frank has also practiced in the end, and he is not completely imaginary, and he stabbed the sword in his hand at Tex like lightning.
Tex also reacted quickly, and the prince, who had studied swordsmanship since childhood, parried the heavy sword stabbed in front of him with amazing arm strength and speed. Frank's invincible speed was ruthlessly shattered in front of Tex at this point, forcing him to withdraw his sword and slash at Tex's defenseless neck.
"Tex be careful!" shouted Jack.
However, Tex had no intention of dodging the attack, and when the sword was about to fall on his neck, he swung the long sword in his hand, retreated with a lunge, and blocked it lightly, which blocked Frank's attack.
The competition between swordsmanship and swordsmanship is not about strength, but speed and skill, and obviously, Frank's attack method is too simple, and he just wants to suppress Tex in strength. Turks, on the other hand, responded with a light defense, easily defusing Frank's numerous attacks.
A few minutes later, Frank gasped for breath, and his full strength was used to attack, which not only consumed too much of his physical strength, but also distracted him after countless failed attacks, and he took another step to attack after a little adjustment.
However, the stabbing blow after another was easily defused by Tex and failed at all.
Turks began to taunt again.
"My big officer, I heard that you can catch the tiger shark before I came, what, are you retaining your strength? Don't don't, should you be serious or should be serious, don't think I'm a child and let me. ”
Frank gasped for breath, sweat running down his thick beard and down the ground. He picked up his sword again and rushed at Tex, this time, he was going to crush Tex to the side of the ship with all his strength, tripped over the ship's stakes, and then lost his center of gravity, and finally took his life in order to re-establish himself in the eyes of so many elders.
"Die!"
Sparks from the two sword pairs burst out in the night sky, and Turks deeply felt that this attack was not as good as before, so he followed Frank's move very seriously. But due to the disparity in strength, he was forced back step by step.
"Not good!"
Turks felt a trip on his heel and fell heavily into the other boat, and his sword fell into the gap between the two ships, falling into the sea.
Seeing Frank holding the sword in both hands, stabbing straight at him, he couldn't think of a way to defend himself.
Dangerous!
In a hurry, he lay on the ground, his feet raised, and clamped the tip of the sword that was about to pierce his heart, blocking this deadly attack. Then he kicked Frank in the wrist, causing Frank's hands to ache, and the sword was kicked away and flew to the side.
Tex got up, flipped on his side, grabbed the sword that belonged to Frank, and held it up to point it at Frank in a panic.
"My friend, you lost. ”
Frank looked at the sword in front of his brow in a daze, unwilling to take it back while Turks was relaxed. So he dodged the direction of the sword and stretched out his hand to snatch it.
Turks didn't understand why Frank was doing this, so he withdrew his sword and took two steps back.
Unbeknownst to him, the oncoming Frank hit the tip of the sword that was facing him and stabbed him hard.
The crowd exclaimed.
"Frank!" shouted the elders.
