Chapter 43: The Lighthouse. The Beye
At the same time, Malperry's work was not at all as smooth as that of Bayer's side.
He was slumped in his house at the moment, wine, ale, rum or beer, all the liquor you could see in Bretonnia was empty bottles in his house.
Malperi could taste wine, but he would never drink heavily, but the pressure on him from this mission was too great.
He can't be blamed either, in Bretonnia, the highest goal of the nobles is to become a duke, and the goal of a knight is the Holy Grail.
And the commoner is to serve a duke or the Holy Grail, and at this moment Malperi is such an honor and a bright future.
He was overjoyed at first, thinking that he could join the court of the Long Lake Lord, and then rule a merchant club of his own...
But this feeling soon turned into worry, what if he didn't do well enough to fulfill Duke Bayer's request?
To tell the truth, his ability is not bad, and in just two days, he found a shipyard that is old enough and of good quality, and soaked in it all day, using all his energy to learn shipbuilding and personally select ships.
But he soon realized that two hundred gold coins was a huge amount of money for himself, but it was still not enough for shipbuilding, especially for warships.
Two sails and four guns, carrying the most 100 people, how could it be possible to meet the requirements of Duke Bayer?!
He was confused, miserable, and though he would be the delicate and capable man he would be when he left home, he would be immersed in alcohol when he came back.
He quickly drained his brewing stockpiles and began to buy miscellaneous liquor from various taverns.
Malpery's cloudy eyes skimmed over the barrel that had made him rich, and a terrible thought flashed through his head at the moment...
The next day, Bair also set out in the afternoon, leaving only a few sailors in the camp, while the 40 soldiers of the Poisonblade Force and Sir Flender lay in ambush behind the sandy reef at Dragon's Throat, watching the harbor from afar.
It's only a day's flight from the Lyonis border.
There are dozens of sharp rocks jutting out of the water, and the tides and currents are constantly slapping against the rocks and making splashes, so they look like teeth covered in smoke.
As expected, the cloudless harbor set off a huge wave at about three o'clock, and the sea was romantic, and a large ship gradually sailed from the misty waves.
In addition to the man who called him, there were many other sturdy men next to Beyer, all of whom also seemed to be skilled workers.
The rain covered the port, and in the midst of the rain, the large ship's hold was opened, but there were only a few wooden crates inside, and no one else.
The tall man began to shout. "Move out, move away, 30 a day is not good!"
Baier followed the workers into the cabin, the wood of which was slightly dark and eerie, as if soaked in blood.
And the duty of the workers was to lift the half-man-tall wooden box into the truck and be pulled away by the tall and thin man.
As soon as Bayer lifted the wooden box, he felt that something was wrong, it didn't feel like a scattered gold coin, but a whole piece, still shaking.
The others were somewhat confused, but they probably thought of the gold coins and continued to move quickly.
And Baier was more attentive than the others, especially after looking at the warehouse for a while, and when he skimmed to the stairs to go up the first class, he saw a swollen rotten toe.
It fell to the ground like a toy, but Byer tried to pick it up, only to find that the toe was missing out of sight.
Bair felt that it was better to go according to the original plan and help them move their things.
When the goods are loaded and the wagons move, the fighters will wait for him to leave and go out into the street to intercept him.
But the ship suddenly whistled, like a war trumpet, and like a strange wail.
Beyer's eyes are excellent, and he sees a strange creature, it should be a creature?
Its body is highly mutated, swollen, and fat, with tentacles that resemble those of sea creatures, and it wears a captain's hat.
It leans forward at the moment, its head slightly lowered...
Bayer is so familiar with this pose, it's smelling!
And the tall and thin man changed color after hearing the sound of the horn.
"Oops...", and looked around at the workers who had just finished their work...
His eyes wandered, and he finally looked at Beyer, who was observing. "You!"
"You actually called the guards?!"
Beyer was surprised in his heart, how could he suddenly be discovered?!
The tall and thin man suddenly went berserk, like Bair yelling.
Then he reverently chanted.
"Father, it's not my will, it's not mine...!"
But a moment later, the big ship opened fire, and a cannonball smashed next to the man, and the people and the truck smashed into a mess of rotten meat.
The goods were also scattered in a mess, and there were gold coins, and the wooden boxes and sawdust were wrapped in living people who were chained together!
At the muzzle, a naked Norsca raider was aiming.
Before Bayer could react, the workers were in a mess, and about 20 people shouted everywhere and ran to the village in front of them.
Baier immediately scolded. "Don't run around, there will be shelling!"
But the storm and the shouts of the workers overshadowed the order, and in the next second, several shells were fired again!
There are a few red flowers on the beach.
Bair hurriedly ran to the nearby reef where the soldiers were hiding, and Rakcha's blessing was a masterpiece, and with the blessing of the wind of magic, he managed to dodge several shelling with his speed.
When he hid on the reef beach, the enemy lost his vision, the cannon stopped, and he collapsed directly to the ground.
Byer sat on the sand, looked left and right, and soon saw the soldiers, who at the moment did not understand what was going on, and were a little panicked.
But with Sir at his command, they quickly made the decision to prepare to fight back with crossbow arrows!
The dwarven's crossbow bolts were hard and fierce, piercing the storm and grazing past a Norscan barbarian, but unfortunately they didn't kill him!
The next second, the shells fired, and the stone chips and shells flew wildly.
But relying on the cover of the reef, the Poison Blade troops actually began to attack the enemy in a chaotic situation.
This is one of the few cases where Baier has been suppressed by firepower, and his phobia of lack of firepower is about to fall ill again.
If your trebuchets and ballistas are there, you can destroy this broken ship in minutes!
But the situation was that countless cannons, bows and arrows, constantly flew towards Bair's position.
Seeing that there are fewer and fewer reefs, soon the troops will be completely annihilated...
At this moment, an additional earth-shattering sound appeared, and I saw a huge five-sailing ship appear on the confused ocean.
It's the one Bayer saw while he was working!
And there is actually a flag of Baier on it!
And the hull is carved with huge fonts.

That's right, Malpery bought it!
