Pirates to the top
Chapter 23 The Darkest Hour (12)
On the deck of the Bergen Oli, the observer seemed quite comfortable looking at the fire-spattered coast in the distance.He kind of enjoyed the feeling of giving orders.In the Sea Dog Pirates, his status is slightly higher than that of a combatant. Not to mention the boatswain, he cannot even command technical personnel in some important positions.
Having someone bring a chair, he just sat by the fence with a bowl of vegetable and seafood soup that the chef had just made for him. Because of his request, a lot of small peppers were added to it.
After spooning spoonfuls of the thick soup into his mouth, he began to think about how much he could moisten it after this time.
"boom"
The porcelain bowl in his hand was shattered, and the soup completely soaked his body.After falling into a moment of sluggishness, an uncontrollable anger came over.
"telescope"
Taking the monocular telescope handed to him by the pirate on the side, he kept looking towards the sea. Suddenly, on the sea a little far away from the ship, a sampan was floating along with the waves.
Looking carefully, he saw a black-haired boy holding a rifle and aiming at his position.
"not good"
"boom"
A lazy donkey rolled around. He instantly felt something was wrong and rolled towards the inside of the deck.At the position of the fence just now, a hot lead bullet was completely embedded in it.
"I'm so angry." Looking at the surprised looks of the crew members around him, he felt his face was dull as he was in a sorry state.
"Sink the sampan at three o'clock."
The strong light of the searchlight shone on the distant sea. Faced with the sudden strong light, Silas, whose face turned purple and blue, just squinted his eyes, and then pulled the trigger towards the distant ship.
Silas knew very well that the flintlock rifle in his hand was a second-hand obsolete product, and the rifling inside was almost worn away.In addition, the two are hundreds of meters apart. In this case, let alone counting on accuracy, it is not sure whether the lead bullets fired can retain the damage.
But Silas was just trying to get their attention and give Jack a chance.
"Click, click." Knowing that the ammunition in his magazine had been used up, Silas simply threw the flintlock rifle in his hand into the sea.He left with only a rifle and no spare ammunition.
After struggling with the wooden paddle, the sampan drove away in the direction of the cave.Two bright lights on the sea behind him locked the direction of Silas, and bursts of cannon fire came one after another.The water splashed by the explosion became higher and higher, and Silas's hands were already stained red with blood. The feeling of suffocation spread throughout his body, and every breath he took seemed to exhaust his strength.
After holding on for a while, Silas held on for a while. "Due to lack of oxygen, the vision in his eyes gradually darkened, and his brain became slower and slower. He didn't know when he would collapse, maybe one minute, maybe the next second.
In the completely opposite direction, Valpo and Phillips were sliding the wood pulp rapidly. Amidst the bursts of lights and gunfire, they quietly drove out of the cave and hid the sampan in the shadow of the blind spot of the sea ship.
"Shhh" Jack signaled Valpo and Phillips to stop sliding the wood pulp to avoid attracting attention, and were slowly taken away from the ship by the waves.
Monet held Henry's hand and looked nervously at the huge ship close at hand. When the sampan reached the stern of the ship, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.
But after Monet casually glanced towards the stern of the ship, his pupils tightened and his whole body became tense.
A man wearing a sailor's hat and carrying a long knife was leaning against the railing at the stern of the ship, smoking a cigarette and looking at the people slowly leaving below.
"There's someone at the stern"
Jack also noticed something strange instantly. Looking at the man smoking a cigarette, he didn't know what to do.
And Phillips instantly loaded his pistol and aimed it at the man at the stern of the boat.
"Don't shoot, Phillips, don't shoot." Jack quickly stopped Phillips. He knew that shooting at this distance was tantamount to being directly sentenced to death, but doing nothing would just be a slow death.
At this time, the sound of cannons from the ship's bow seemed to gradually calm down, but everyone understood what this meant.
"Silas" Phillips was in great pain, but there was nothing he could do about it at this time.
Jack stood up slowly and looked at the man. He was thinking about how to survive this crisis.
Bonai Kubo looked at the sampan below and the boys and girls on the sampan and sighed.Even heinous villains will have their own principles and persistence, and Bonai Kubo also has his own persistence.
Everyone's hair stood on end when they saw the man flicking his cigarette into the sea, worried about this man's next move.
But they saw the man above them waving their hands forward and leaving the deck.
""

"Let's go!" Jack instantly understood the man's attitude and said hurriedly towards Phillips and Valpo.
After reacting, the two gritted their teeth and quickly slid the wood pulp, not caring whether the sound of the paddle would be exposed.
The two paddled for an unknown amount of time, because Phillips was still injured, so Jack took his place midway and completed the second half.When the sight of Baishuang Town became smaller and smaller, to the point where they couldn't see anymore, everyone stopped.
It was already late at night, the coldest time of day in the North Sea, especially on the drifting sea.The freezing cold wind swept over everyone in different directions over and over again.Fortunately, everyone had already expected it, and the bedding and clothing prepared early gave everyone the capital to survive in such an extreme environment.
Except for Valpo, everyone had already put on two coats. Enough fat allowed Valpo to withstand such severe cold, so now he only had a windbreaker that seemed slightly smaller.Jack and Alfred, who were lying on the sampan, had been tightly wrapped in thick quilts and blankets by Monet.
"If you are tired, why don't you lie down for a while and I will watch." Jack said to himself.
But everyone didn't seem to hear it, and they still went about their own business.Jack sighed, knowing that nothing he could say would work at this point.
Phillips held his head in his hands, lying on the board of the boat, looking at the sea in the distance and not knowing what he was thinking.Monet brought fresh water and cooked rice milk and carefully put it into the mouths of Henry and Phillips with a spoon. Even Valpo, who was always known for his honesty, was peeking at Jack, and immediately screwed his head after being discovered by Jack. passed
Jack shook his head and knew that everyone on this ship lacked someone who could bring them together again.When Silas was around, he could still manage to coordinate everyone, but now that Silas was gone, Jack could only hope that Henry would wake up soon.
He opened the chart and used a compass to make sure that the sampan did not deviate from the general direction. After dawn and the sun appeared, he used a sextant to further determine the route, because his early experience taught him that losing direction in the sea is a serious problem. What a terrible thing.
Since the draft of the sampan was not deep, the waves blown by the sea breeze pushed the sampan back and forth, and the people on the sampan also swayed with the waves.
At this time, Valpo kept thinking about what Silas had said to him. When he had something to do, he would sneak away in Jack's direction, and when Jack found him, he quickly turned away, pretending that nothing happened.
"If you can be sure that Jack has a dangerous intention against you, you must subdue him as soon as possible and never give him any chance. Phillips will definitely help you as soon as you do it. But the premise is to be sure, remember to be sure."
