Chapter 74 Arrival

Docklands, harbour.

Squads of harbour guards have appeared here since dawn to begin martial law.

Any transportation and unloading have been delayed.

Residents also began to be evacuated.

No one complained.

Because, Gerald gave a certain amount of compensation.

Those who received compensation immediately regarded the martial law this time as a holiday, and many people beamed with joy.

However, the guards who carried out the martial law mission had a serious face.

Especially the little Li De, who was in charge of these people, held the long sword around his waist and never let go of it for a moment.

'Pied Piper'!

After learning who would appear here at noon today, Little Lid's heart hung directly in the air.

Because he didn't know how to deal with such a powerful enemy.

An enemy that cannot be measured in numbers.

For Little Lid, or for most people, it is really the most terrifying enemy.

And when the other party proposes to see only one person...

The danger is skyrocketing.

"I hope the adults can deal with it, and I hope that Lord Jason is safe and sound."

With prayer, Little Lid's eyes turned to the entrance ahead.

This is the only way to the Octopus Tavern.

If the "Pied Piper" is coming, he must pass through here.

And it was less than a quarter of an hour before the appointed time at noon.

Time passed minute by minute.

The nerves of the harbor guards guarding the dock area have long been tense, their breathing began to become unified, and a battlefield atmosphere began to condense unconsciously,

When their gazes came, the civilians who were far away to probe their brains immediately became frightened, and subconsciously avoided such sights.

The timid person was even more frightened, his face pale, and he retreated unconsciously.

And the momentum of the harbor guards is still condensing and rising.

Soon, when the sun rose to the middle of the sky, their momentum condensed to the highest point.

At this time, everyone's battle armors were automatic without wind, clattering, and a sharp and pressing feeling, as if a long sword was unsheathed, appeared on each of them.

The sound of the waves subconsciously became smaller.

The seabirds in the sky are far away early.

It seems that there is only this team left in the world.

Then--

Woo!

The wind howled.

The fog rolled.

A fog so thick that you can't reach your fingers suddenly appeared in Hans Harbor, in front of the harbor.

Too,

The rear of Little Lid and others!

"Behind!"

"maritime!"

Little Lid was startled and turned back subconsciously.

All the people followed.

next moment!

Everyone's pupils shrank.

In their field of vision, a huge and terrifying figure loomed in the mist.

That was a height they had never seen before.

Compared with it, the city wall of the harbor is like a small mound, as if it can be crossed with a single step.

What is even more frightening is that every step this giant takes is the whistling sound of the wind, and the sound of the waves that disappeared before is like a volcano that erupts again after being suppressed to the limit.

Boom!

Like thunder.

Heartbreaking.

The harbour guards, who could not have been wrong, were affected again. The sharpness of the sword seemed to be unsheathed, and it was blunt directly, as if it was rusted.

Little Lid felt a burst of electric currents running through his body and rushed to his scalp.

He felt his whole body stiff, his brain frozen.

It seemed that he was about to become a puppet.

He bit his tongue sharply.

The smell of blood spreads in the mouth.

The momentary pain stimulated the brain of the harbor master.

It made him wake up for a moment.

very short.

But enough.

"war!"

Little Lid roared.

It sounded like a starting gun.

The surrounding harbour guards who were stunned roared almost subconsciously.

"war!"

It wasn't very consistent, and it wasn't too loud.

But let these harbor guards wake up.

Then—

"war!"

"Battle!"

"Battle, fight!"

All at once.

A beep.

When the last word 'war' came out, the sound had already pierced through the sky, and the sound of the waves was once again covered up.

Clang!

The sound of the long sword being unsheathed was looming in the roar.

An invisible sword pierced the sky.

The wind dissipated.

The waves are silent.

The fog disappeared.

On the sea, only a small boat came slowly.

There is only one person on board.

His face could not be seen clearly in the midday sun.

But the flute in the other's hand is clearly visible.

"Port Guard?"

"good."

Standing on the boat, the other party chuckled and praised.

The admiration in the voice is not a pretense.

But the next moment, the other party's smile disappeared.

Gloomy, cold on his face.

His eyes were filled with murderous intent.

"It's too annoying!"

As the other party said this, the flute in his hand was slightly lifted.

A crisp and pleasant flute sounded.

Then--

click!

The invisible sharp sword trembled, and cracked lines appeared on it. All the harbor guards, including Little Lid, were like lightning strikes at this moment, their faces pale and their bodies trembled.

However, no one backed away.

They held swords and shields, gritted their teeth, and stared at the figure coming from the sea.

Under such gaze, the other party seemed to be getting more and more angry.

He was about to raise the flute in his hand again.

"You're also an eyesore."

A faint voice sounded.

from the harbour.

111 Durham Street to be exact.

With a calm voice, Gerald, who was sitting in the chair, stood up and walked towards the floor-to-ceiling windows.

He stood there, looking directly at the sea.

moment--

Roar!

High-spirited growl.

Hot breath.

In the clouds in the sky, a phantom of a griffin gathered, staring at the people on the boat.

Undisguised killing intent shot out from the eyes of the 'Griffin'.

The opponent's hand that was about to lift the 'flute' stopped.

Raised his head and looked at the phantom of the 'Griffin'.

Then, he lowered his head slightly and looked at 111 Dren Street deep in the harbor.

Thousands of meters apart.

The vision of both sides was not affected at all.

direct collision.

Boom!

There was thunder louder than before.

It was as if the sky was about to explode.

The rolled up clouds collapsed directly.

There is only one sun left.

The air froze for it.

The boat stopped and did not go any further.

Gerald straightened, breathing a little.

One second, two seconds, three seconds.

Gerald suddenly turned pale and took a half step back.

The bow of the boat sank suddenly.

Then, the boat moved forward again.

A slight smile appeared on the 'Pied Piper' face.

People still couldn't see the face of the 'Pied Piper', but they could feel that he was smiling.

Such a smile makes me uncomfortable.

The lord is slightly inferior?

Everyone's morale was stagnant.

but,

immediately!

Everyone saw it, and the 'Pied Piper''s smile froze.

Snapped!

The boat smashed.
