Chapter 337


Chapter 337

“Pirates? How could they be pirates?”

The affairs officers were more and more surprised. They must know that there have been no traces of pirates on the west coast of the royal territory for a long time. Today’s Where did this band of pirates come from?

The fire in the distance became brighter and brighter, as if the intruders were deliberately setting fires without encountering any effective resistance.

"Sir, should we reinforce the troops stationed at the port?"

In the midst of the panic, Mark, the captain of the city guard, was relatively calm.

Dylan replied: "Reinforcement? Uh... yes, reinforcements..." But he immediately changed his mind: "No, you and your people can't leave. Our mission is to guard the warehouse area."

He made up his mind and ordered: "Quickly, strengthen the defense here. Don't let the pirates rush here."

"Yes! Sir." Mark could only copy it. He saw the Viscount The adult's body was trembling slightly.

Although he sounded determined and calm, Dylan was actually panicking in his heart. He had never encountered such a situation.

Under the command of Captain Mark, the city guards organized the workers, blocked the street entrances, and built barricades in preparation for possible attacks. Of course, everyone prayed that the pirates would grab a handful and leave, and not run this way.

However, the goddess of luck did not favor them. The fire gradually spread towards them, and the noise in the air became increasingly clear. The shouts of killing and the screams of civilians were mixed together, impacting the psychological defenses of the people behind the barricades one after another.

Many people are at a loss, and there are obvious signs of panic among the workers. Even the soldiers stationed here are afraid. Most of them have never experienced a life and death battle.

Another scout who was sent out to inquire for information ran back in a panic. His chest heaved violently and he breathed heavily and reported to Dylan, Mark and others: "It's not good... it's not good. The navy at the port...the navy is no longer good."

Everyone felt sad, because Westport is a port city, and the navy stationed here also functions as a city guard, and the soldiers in the warehouse area are from there. Transferred by the Navy. The demise of the navy means that the city has no defensive force, and the several outposts scattered in other parts of the city cannot play a big role at all.

Dylan was scared and angry. Even if the top management was paralyzed, the officers and soldiers at the bottom were too useless. They were defeated at this moment. Was it because they were used to living a comfortable life?

As the top person in charge here, it’s time for me to show some courage. He took a deep breath and shouted to the people who were waiting: "People of the Kingdom! It's time to show our loyalty to His Majesty the King! We must hold on to this place, even if it is a piece of rubble, we cannot let the pirates take it away! "

He paused and thought to himself, damn pirates, if you want to rob, just rob somewhere else. Don't run here."

Then he continued to shout: "People of the Kingdom..."

Bang bang bang! A burst of applause came out of nowhere, and then a slightly joking voice sounded: "What an inspiring speech, what a loyal minister of the kingdom!"

"Who? Stand up for me?" Dylan was very angry and looked around to find the source of the sound.

“There! On the roof!”

A steward next to him pointed upward, reminding the viscount.

Dylan quickly looked up and saw a man standing on the roof of the building in front of him. He was of medium build and dressed in black. His hair was blowing gently in the night wind. This appearance coupled with the appearance behind him The bright moon hanging in the night sky resembles the mysterious knight described in some novels who comes and goes without a trace.

“You! Who are you?”

Captain Mark quickly moved in front of Dylan, made a gesture to protect him, quickly pulled out his sword, pointed at the opponent and asked loudly. Well, his reaction was very appropriate.

“Me?” The man in black had a smile on his face and replied unhurriedly: “I am the pirate the Viscount calls me.”

“Pirate?” Everyone The color on his face was not so much that he was afraid of the other party's identity, but rather that he was surprised by the other party's boldness, leaving his accomplices behind and heading here alone.

"Damn it! You are asking for your own death!" Captain Mark was furious, and the guy on the roof was too arrogant.

He grabbed the bow and arrow from a subordinate next to him, opened the bow and shot at the madman.

“Die! Idiot!”

As soon as he finished speaking, something happened that shocked everyone below. Everyone saw that the arrow hit the man very accurately. The body of the man in black, however, passed through the air as if it had hit the air and hit the tiles behind him.

"Ouch! It seems that this Lord Knight's accuracy is not very good. He still needs more practice, hahahaha!"

The mysterious man in black spoke sarcastically.

"You! It's just a cover-up!"

Captain Mark was extremely angry and loudly ordered his subordinates: "You guys, climb up and capture this madman!"

Several people hurriedly looked for him. ladder. The others stared at the people on the roof with ashen faces. Some of them were rubbing their eyes, as if they couldn't believe the scene just now. Captain Mark's arrow clearly hit the opponent's body. It didn't look like he was covered by armor or something. The armor blocked it, but it passed through so naturally and without any hindrance, while the other party's body didn't do anything wrong at all. How could such a ridiculous thing happen in the world?

Witchcraft! magic!

These words suddenly popped into everyone's head.

Thinking back to the mysterious assassination of the upper echelons of the navy two days ago, yes, the pirates must have colluded with the wizards to first paralyze the navy's command system, and then take advantage of the chaos to land and invade.

And the man standing on the roof - is a wizard!

Nathan stood on the roof, looking at the panicked people below with a smile.

“Everyone!” He said, “While your ladder hasn’t been moved, can we negotiate?”

“Negotiation?” Dylan was very surprised.

Nathan continued: "It seems that there are a lot of good things hidden in your warehouse! Why don't you give us all the things in the warehouse - and the weapons you have on hand, mosquitoes are still meat no matter how small they are. We I'll let you leave safely."

He clapped his hands, as if applauding his idea, "Everyone is happy, what do you think?"
< br>“Don’t even think about it!”

Dylan was angry. The important supplies transported to the front line were stolen by pirates who didn’t know where they came from. He would definitely not get anything good after returning to the capital. .

“This is the property of the Kingdom of Aldo, don’t touch even a tiny bit!”

"Oh?" Nathan narrowed his eyes. Although he still maintained the smile on his face, it was cast with a gloomy look, "Then you can't blame us..."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a dense crowd. The sound of footsteps sounded, and heavy figures suddenly appeared at the entrance of the street.
