The difference in strength between the Earth Knight and the ordinary pirate is like a creek and a river. After the trio joined forces, a large amount of deck space was quickly cleared. The navy, which had been waiting for a long time, rushed up and strangled together.

The remaining pirates held out for a short time and were all wiped out.

"Clear the deck, and I'll get the casualty data later. The thunder roared and the fighting spirit worked, shaking off the blood on the sword and inserting it back into the scabbard. Holding back the discomfort in his heart, he strode back to the cabin.

This is the first time since the crossing that so many people have been killed. I didn't feel much when I was fighting, but when I calmed down, I felt like I wanted to vomit.

"Bearing capacity still needs to be exercised!" Lei Ming laughed to himself, sitting on the bed, checking the harvest. This time, more than 30 people were killed, and the red energy indicator increased by 3% to 53%, of which about 2% of the energy was provided by pirate officials such as the Stormtroopers.

He thought for a moment, his eyes lit up, and he got up excitedly and walked back and forth in the room. There was obviously something wrong with the idea before, but there was nothing wrong with improving the lives of the people, and energy could be obtained. It's just that the territory doesn't have any special products, and it's hard to earn gold coins just by farming. Now there's a quick way to increase your strength and kill pirate officials.

"My lord, the data has been counted. With an ugly face, Sayles walked in with a document, took two steps forward, and handed it over.

Lei Ming took the file, raised his hand and pointed to the chair next to him, opened the file and looked at it. Half of the Navy's 310 combatants died, most of them on the large warship where Thunder was located. Of the 380 pirate combatants, all but 80 who escaped without participating in the battle were killed. About 150 sailors on board the other three pirate ships, all of whom were captured.

At the beginning of the battle, three medium-sized warships of the navy, unable to join the battle, took the sailors under control.

Sayles suddenly fell to his knees and pleaded, "My lord, please don't throw these corpses into the sea. My subordinates know that this is too much to ask, but after all, they have followed me for more than 20 years, and I want to bring their ashes back to the territory for burial. ”

Lei Ming's index finger unconsciously tapped his thigh, his brow furrowed. It can be big or small, and if it were in the same boat, it would probably cause a plague. "Can a large pirate ship still sail?"

Sayles thought for a moment and nodded earnestly.

"Then put the navy corpses on that ship, and let all the pirate sailors go back and sail and follow us." Lei Ming suddenly thought of something and asked, "There are more pirates now, can you arrest some, especially officials like captains?" ”

"My lord, I'm sorry to tell you that even if I can catch it, I don't think I will be able to catch much. Looking at the current situation, the pirates have the possibility of an alliance. Moreover, even if we want to expand the navy of the territory, sailors are a problem, and there is an important problem, we don't have gold to buy ships. Sayles shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly.

"You go and arrange it first!" Lei Ming waved his hand, his fiery heart was like pouring a basin of cold water, and he rubbed his painful eyebrows vigorously. The magic stone mine is a huge wealth, but it is a pity that Fafer can't go there often, so it can easily attract the attention of those who care.

He took a deep breath and suppressed the distractions in his mind. I rested on the bed for an hour and strode out. "Boat, where are we now?"

"My lord, now that we are still 2 days away from the royal capital, I have the common sense to go to the nearest island to cremate the corpses of the navy, which has been occupied by pirates. Sayles was not to be outdone.

A green light invisible to the naked eye appeared in Lei Ming's eyes, and with the eye of fate, things in the next 40 minutes flashed in front of him like lightning. He retracted his gaze, frowned, and said, "Turn around immediately and change to the closest channel to the royal capital." ”

"Yes, sir. With the last experience, Sayles, despite some hesitation, chose to listen.

After receiving the order, the crew began to turn around and head towards the nearest channel. After about three hours of driving, a new order from the lord was given. In just one day, the route was changed six times.

The crew began to complain, at first only secretly, and gradually the voices became louder and louder. The lord is young and powerful, and they all admire him, but he doesn't have any sailing experience, is it really okay to command blindly like this?

Everyone didn't understand what the lord was trying to do. Obviously, if you don't take a shortcut, you have to take a detour. If this continues, the original two-day journey is likely to continue to stretch.

Hearing the discussion, Sayles's face was a little ugly. "My lord, I'm going to stop them. ”

Lei Ming waved his hand, his face was a little pale, and he had to cast the Eye of Fate every hour, which consumed him quite a lot. "Whatever they talk about, don't care. The only requirement is that the orders of this viscount must be carried out. ”

"Don't worry, my lord!" said Sayles, patting his chest vigorously.

"Do as I was told, go!" Thunder rubbed his sore eyes and turned back to the cabin. Lie in bed and rest with your eyes closed.

As the food and fresh water on board dwindled, not only did the crew talk loudly, but even the soldiers began to hesitate.

Since the Grant Territory was only three days away from the royal capital, only five days of food and fresh water were prepared on board. If he hadn't gotten something from the pirate ship earlier, he would have run out of food a long time ago. Even so, the fresh water on board barely lasted a day.

Many crew members ostensibly obeyed Lei Ming's orders and secretly disobeyed. There were even radical crews, outright refusing to carry out orders. Sayles killed a few people and imprisoned a dozen for this, but with little success, he had to go to the thundering rest cabin to report.

"Needless to say, I know it all. Lei Ming's eyes were red, he sat up with a tired expression, and said coldly: "Everyone is responsible for their own decisions, and since they do this, they must bear the consequences." ”

Sayles hesitated and walked out of the cabin, thought for a moment, and decisively ordered to speed up. The crew saw his resolute attitude this time, coupled with more than 20 years of prestige, and chose to do so despite dissatisfaction.

The fleet had been on the road for an hour, and as evening approached, the sharp-eyed navy swept across the sea on the left and shouted in horror: "Pirates, inform your Excellency quickly." ”

"Shut up, we've been sailing for four or five days in a row, not to mention pirates, and the merchant ships haven't encountered any of them, even if you want to scare us, please change to another one. The rest of the crew shouted dissatisfied.

"It's true, they're coming soon, I'll go and inform the adults first. With that, the navy hurried to the cabin.

Hearing that the Navy soldier didn't seem to be scaring them, the rest of the crew glanced out to sea, and twelve ships with skull emblems were sprinting wildly.

"Quick, report to the lord. The Navy shouted in a panic.

Lei Ming received the report, strode out of the cabin, and said in a cold voice: "Do you know the consequences of resisting the order now? Remember, this is the first and last time." Now, change lanes to speed things up. ”

The crew blushed and bowed their heads, their bowels full of remorse. This time without the slightest hesitation, desperately carried out the order.

Sails was glad in his heart, but fortunately he had quickened his speed after following the order, and saluted: "My lord, those three capture pirate ships seem to be deliberately slowing down. ”

"Soldiers were sent to suppress. Lei Ming raised his eyebrows and said casually: "The people who went should stay on those boats for the time being!"
