Chapter 72 Robbed
In early March 1520 AD, a large fleet loaded with cargo sailed into the Watcher Strait.
"Sir Senior, this voyage went beyond expectations. As long as we pass through the Watcher Strait, we will not be far from Memphitos."
Old Reese, the captain of the Antlered Deer, said to the top leader of the fleet, Senior, Senior Montel, with an undisguised smile on his face.
Luck is very important when sailing on the sea. If you are unlucky and encounter a big storm of despair, no matter how good your navigation skills are, they will only be destroyed. But this time they were simply kissed by the goddess of luck. Not only did they not encounter a big storm of despair, but even smaller storms There was no rain, and it was a smooth journey to the Watcher Channel.
"Yes, I hope we will have smooth sailing and not run into any trouble."
Saying this, Senior also showed a smile on his face. This mission is very important. In order to ensure that the cargo on the ship reaches Memphitos safely, the Montel family cannot easily mobilize the fourth-level transcendent. He, a third-level knight, was specially transferred. You must know that the current situation in the Sutilt Kingdom is very tense, both inside and outside. Under such circumstances, the family also transferred him from the place where he was guarding, which shows the importance of this batch of goods. sex.
Since accepting this task, Senior has been under a lot of pressure, and his previous good luck has made him feel a lot more relaxed.
"Captain, it's foggy ahead."
The leading ship in front sent out a semaphore, and the lookout immediately reported the situation to Old Rees after seeing it.
With a solemn look on his face, Old Reese immediately picked up the monocular.
Through the telescope, Old Reese did see a faint white mist rising from the sea in the distance, but he did not speak immediately and instead turned his attention to Senior.
"Old Reese, as long as you are in charge of the fleet, you don't need to look at me."
He knew his own business, and Senior knew very well that he was not good at sailing, so he chose to delegate power. It was a very bad thing for an amateur to command an expert on the sea.
Hearing Senior's words, Old Reese nodded and did not refuse. The reason why he looked at Senior before was out of respect for Senior. After all, he was not only the chief of the fleet, but also a Montel. , but he still needs to be responsible for the specific navigation command. This is not only responsible for himself, but also for the entire fleet.
"Send a semaphore, ask the fleet to shrink its formation, reduce its speed, and let the Pioneer turn on the pilot's magic light to guide the direction of the fleet."
The weather on the sea is changeable. Although the fog is still very thin now, Old Reese must prepare for the worst.
As time passed, the fog on the sea became thicker and thicker, like an unknown monster, swallowing up the entire fleet.
"Ah, what the hell is this!"
"The boat, the boat is going to capsize."
"It's a sea monster, it's a sea monster."
"Moo."
The white mist was so blurry that it was hard to see clearly. There were only vague shadows and frightened screams, and of course the occasional roar of monsters mixed in.
Three hours later, everything became quiet, and no sound came from the white mist.
The white fog was still there, not converging at all, but tending to spread. At this time, a vague ship silhouette suddenly appeared at the edge of the white fog, breaking through the blockade of the white fog and appearing in the sun.
In the white mist, pirate ships with black sails were enjoying the fruits of their victory.
The ghost was wailing, holding a hideous-looking human head in one hand and a wine bottle in the other, and was drinking happily. The head looked like the third-order knight Senior Montel.
"Boss, as per your order, we have released a small fish."
Looking at Gui Shou who was in a good mood, Mahar said cautiously from the side. Gui Shou has become more and more moody during this period of time.
"Really? Then let's open the fishing net.
Wait for the big fish to arrive. "
"Sean Montel, hey, my stuff isn't that easy to get."
As he said that, Guishou grinned with a ferocious smile and took another sip of wine.
Seven days later, a battered barque appeared in the port of Memphitos.
An hour later, Sean, who was enjoying lunch, learned through a phone bug that his fleet had been robbed by pirates and that all but one of the ships, the Pioneer, had been annihilated.
His expression turned cold, and the fried lobster meat no longer tasted good. After a moment of silence, he drank the red wine in the glass in one sip, and Sean stood up and left the table.
Looking at Sean's back that exuded a cold aura, Gulea followed silently.
In the study, Sean used the Phantom Crystal for the second time to contact his father Histon Montel.
After listening to Sean's statement, Histon Montel, a man who usually kept his emotions in check, couldn't help but look gloomy.
"Are you sure it was the Demon Pirates who did it?"
"Confirmation, the other party is not hiding it, and may even want us to know on purpose."
"Is that so?"
After a moment of silence, Histon's face returned to calmness, but his eyes became as sharp as a knife.
"Sean, can you defeat this evil pirate group with the power in your hands?"
Staring at Sean closely, Histon's voice was particularly low.
"no problem."
His expression remained unchanged, without any hesitation. Sean looked very calm. Now that he has two fourth-level transcendent men under his command, he is indeed qualified to say this.
Although he will suffer some losses in the sea battle, it is not impossible to solve it at a certain cost.
After hearing Sean's words and looking at Sean for a while, Histon spoke again:
"In this case, Sean, go and deal with the Evil Pirates. This cargo is very important and must not be allowed to be lost. The honor of the Montel family must not be tarnished by a pirate group."
In the end, Histon made no secret of his murderous intent.
"I see."
Sean's voice was calm and seemed to have no ups and downs.
The purple crystal sand slid down, ending the communication with Histon, and Sean took out his phone bug.
Two days later, Sean arrived in Memphitos. He brought not many people with him, only Whitebeard, Viper, Mons, and of course a dragon.
The number of people is small, but the combat power is absolutely powerful. With him and his group, there are two fourth level and three third level. This kind of combat power is definitely enough to deal with an evil ghost pirate group.
In the small manor, Sean was sitting in the living room, listening to the captain of the Pioneer carefully reporting the situation.
After listening, Sean's expression remained normal.
"Old Haggar, have you found the location of the Demon Pirates now?"
"I'm sorry, Lord, to disappoint you. I haven't found it so far. Although the Demon Pirates are notorious, their location is very secretive. However, I have issued a large reward. I believe there will be results soon. .”
Facing Sean's inquiry, Old Hager seemed very nervous. He had already lost points due to the theft of rare objects before, and now that he had not handled it well, it really made him feel uneasy.
"I understand. Increase the bounty by another 200 gold galleons and tell me as soon as you have any news."
After saying that, Sean stood up and left the living room. Looking at Sean's leaving figure, Old Hager breathed a sigh of relief.
