"No, they have six ships, and as long as they catch us, they can't run away!" replied the sailor without thinking, as if he had already encountered such a situation.

As soon as he had finished speaking, the sailor took advantage of the unpreparedness of the three men, turned around like a loach, broke out of control, and chased his companion down to the cabin.

In the blink of an eye, the deckmen were empty.

Looking around, Sanders worried, "Let's go down quickly, I've heard that pirates are the most evil guys, they do all kinds of evil, and they like to feed people to sharks!"

Leo looked ahead, the sea was pitch black, and he couldn't see it clearly with his own eyesight.

The same goes for Seaberton, and he reacts quickly, quickly casting himself an eagle eye spell. After a few seconds, he exclaimed in surprise, "Ahh

At this time, Leo also applied the Eagle Eye Technique to himself, and his vision instantly spread out.

In the moonlight, six large, not-so-sophisticated ships were heading towards them, all of them flying black flags, and the contents of them could not be seen clearly due to the poor light, but the dark hull still showed the identity of a pirate ship.

However, Leo didn't have any worries, you know, although most of the people on the ship were students, and their strength was mediocre at best, the strength of several team leaders was quite strong, and the Sanctuary alone reached three.

This does not include the strong men of the previous generation like the old woman Catherfi, whose strength is so strong that it is likely to be close to legend.

However, he was very strange in his heart, he had only just sailed for half a day, and he was far from reaching the depths of the ocean, how could he encounter pirates? Could it be that the security situation in the open seas of the Calente Empire was so bad?

Feeling that this matter should have little to do with him, Leo nodded and said, "Okay, let's go back, in case something really happens, don't make trouble for others." ”

The other side. Seaberton is quite curious about pirates, but Leo and Sanders are going back, and he can't stay alone, not to mention, a mage who is only level 3 is quite dangerous here.

Without knowing too much, he could guess that those who dared to be pirates were certainly not ordinary people.

What's more, those wealthy merchants have a large number of bodyguards on their ships, and there will also be some high-level professionals among them. And the large fleets controlled by the caravans of the richest countries. There will also be priests and mages on board, and there may even be Sanctuary powerhouses.

It is conceivable what kind of strength a pirate who dares to rob such a target should have!

It is said that those pirates entrenched in the deepest part of the ocean are completely comparable in combat power to the Imperial Navy, and some of them have the background of certain countries. And the most powerful pirate group even has a true legend at the helm.

However, it is too embarrassing for a legendary powerhouse to come out and rob this kind of thing, and it may attract other legendary powerhouses, so that one will rarely do it himself. Except in some special circumstances, very stealthy operations are carried out.

The three men soon came to the entrance of the cabin, and were about to go down, only to see Siliman and Rubersky coming out of it. There were also people from Brewster Academy and Crimson Academy in the back. As soon as they met, Rubersky first showed such an expression, and then asked, "What are you three doing?"

Siberton hurriedly replied, "We are a little seasick, come up to breathe the wind." I'm going back now. ”

"Just don't go back, Lady Katherfi told everyone to assemble on deck. Siriman touched his goatee and said, his expression a little dazed. I don't seem to understand what the hell is going on.

After a while, all the contestants and team leaders from all the houses came to the deck.

Kesfi and the captain stepped down from the bridge and said, "As you may already know, there is a band of pirates in front of us who want to plot against us, so I would like to ask the captain to give you an introduction." ”

The captain nodded, but didn't speak immediately, speaking in front of so many mages made him feel very nervous.

Clearing his throat vigorously, the captain said in a loud voice: "My lookout saw the Black Shark flag, it was the Black Shark pirates, active in the Central and South Seas, I didn't expect them to run here. ”

After a pause, he continued, "According to the information we have, this pirate group has ten warships, more than seven hundred people, and controls two islands. Their boss, called Blackeye, is a very vicious fellow who rarely spares anything after a robbery. Judging by the current situation, they must have thought that we only had one ship, so they only dispatched half of the men. ”

"Thank you for the introduction. Casfeld nodded to the captain, and then looked at everyone: "You may be a little puzzled why you have gathered everyone when you meet pirates." Indeed, with the strength of our old fellows, it will not be a problem to repel or even destroy those pirates. But now that these pirates are on our journey, it can be a test. So I thought, we team leaders don't interfere, just let the kids try to see if we can defeat the pirates. ”

As soon as the words fell, there was a burst of discussion below, obviously not expecting Casfeld to make such a proposal. The leaders of several academies glanced at each other, and if someone else put forward this opinion, they would definitely reject it without hesitation, because no one wanted to let the children take risks, but Kesfi was different, her identity and status made several team leaders dare not refuse directly.

At this time, the leader of the St. Lauren, who did not make eye contact, said: "Your proposal is very good, we St. Laurent are willing to accept it, if the other academies are unwilling, we St. Laurent can fight those pirates alone, in this way, maybe it will be easier." ”

Such provocative and slightly disdainful words suddenly made the leaders of the other academies change their faces.

One of the more anxious old men said in a loud voice: "Who doesn't want to? We, the best students of the Dimija Tower, are we afraid of a few insignificant pirates?

Hearing him say this, the remaining six academy leaders sighed one after another. has been forced to this extent, if you don't stand up and show something, it is equivalent to being pressed by St. Lauren before the game starts.

Silriman touched his white beard and said, "We are also participating in Revington, but there is one thing, if the students can't cope, we team leaders will take action immediately, and the safety of the students will be the first priority." ”

"Agreed!"

"Great idea!"

Silliman's proposal drew instant approval. (To be continued.) )
