Chapter 602 Escape
“Dear Lord Hubbard! Please forgive me for not obeying your order!”
The muscles on Horace’s face were a little stiff, and he didn’t know that he should What expression should I use to face the master of this city?
But he still forced himself to continue speaking.
“It troubles my conscience to attack a group of guests who are so civilized and show no hostility towards us.”
"Oh oh oh oh! It seems that our port administrator is a noble and compassionate model of nobility. Is this why Her Majesty the Queen appointed you? Ah, by the way..."
Hubbard looked at Horace, "I remember that you were opposed to conquering the beast slaves on the northern land."
Horace gritted his teeth. Somewhat disgusted.
"It doesn't matter." City Lord Hubbard approached him, patted Horace gently on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "I will catch those hornless people myself, but..."
The tone of Lord Hubbard's voice was filled with coldness, "Every time you disobey me, I will remember it in my heart. Don't think that you are the port manager appointed by Her Majesty the Queen herself. I can’t touch you.”
The threat from the city lord caused a layer of cold sweat to break out on Horace's forehead, but before he could explain anything, the city lord Hubbard tossed his sleeves and left Horace's office.
——
Three large three-masted sailing ships are leaving the dock of Woed Port. In front of each sailing ship is a small paddle boat towing, and the oars on the ship are The hands are waving the oars vigorously, and the small paddle boat will slowly and little by little drag the big ship behind it away from the dock.
The sailors on the big ship were also busy. They put down the canvas, and soon they were able to use the natural wind to drive the huge ship carrying them to the vast sea.
"Captain Grant! There seems to be something strange on the shore!"
Suddenly news came from the lookout hand overhead.
Glen felt a little bit bad.
"Captain Grant! Several paddle boats have sailed out of the pier. Judging from their direction, they should be rushing towards us!"
Glen made a prompt decision, "Recover our paddle boats immediately. ! Inform the other two ships to leave here with us at full speed."
Their ship is now able to sail with wind power.
But the goat people's paddle boats were faster than them, and they soon caught up with them. Some of the paddle boats even ran in front of them, forming a faint encirclement.
Glen immediately found the gunner who was stationed in the exploration team.
"I think the firearms should be configured immediately now. Those goat-horned men obviously have bad intentions towards us."
The gunnery commander nodded, "I agree with your opinion."
The superior sailors saw a strange phenomenon. Some windows suddenly opened on both sides of the ship's side of the big ship of the Hornless Men. After a while, some kind of columns protruded from the dark holes. People with good eyesight can see things clearly, but they are actually tube-shaped objects.
"What are you going to do?"
Vito asked anxiously as he looked at the goat men who had boarded their ship.
Today he signed up as a rower to row on the tugboat, but unexpectedly he had an accident.
The leading goat man stepped forward with a grin, and then suddenly punched him in the stomach. Vito, who was caught off guard, covered his stomach and knelt down on the boat.
Vito's companions were shocked.
"Shut up!" said the leading sheepman, "From now on, you will be the slaves of Lord Hubbard! Praise! Be grateful! You hornless bastards are lucky enough to be captured by the noble Eward The Lord takes him as a slave!”
Slave!
Vito and others were shocked!
These Goatmen actually want to plunder them and make them slaves!
"No! You have no right to do this! We are Aldo..."
Vito struggled and tried to argue, but he was kicked as soon as he stood up!
“Slaves are not allowed to speak without consent!”
Vito and others had no weapons and were unable to resist the goat-horned men with swords. They were quickly brutally beaten Captured.
The people on the other two tugboats were very lucky and returned to the ship before they were boarded by the Sheephorns.
“Oh, no!”
Captain Grant, who watched Vito and others being captured, shouted in pain. He had promised the old shipwright Benjamin to take good care of his apprentice, but now he was kidnapped.
"Destroy the other galleys! Be careful not to damage the one carrying our people." He quickly gave the order.
The artillery on the three ships began to search for their targets.
“It seems we are a step too late! They all ran to the big ship.”
On the pier, City Lord Hubbard said somewhat unhappily.
"Please rest assured, my lord." His entourage said: "Our soldiers will not let them run away."
In the eyes of Vito and others, the horns on the galley People were sitting and moving very strangely, as if they were performing some kind of ceremony.
"What are they doing?"
Vito suddenly remembered something in his mind, which was what the Egbert priest of the Big Stream Tribe said to him, that the Yanghorn people have "Power of God".
"Everyone, be careful, they may perform some evil witchcraft!"
Vito reminded the team members loudly.
The gunnery commander ordered: "Aim at the ships that are performing witchcraft!"
After several suffocating minutes, both sides opened fire almost simultaneously.
On the Goatman side, long flames suddenly shot out from several ships, attacking the exploration team's sailboat like long snakes flying in the air.
The artillery on the exploration team's side made a dull roar, and then clouds of smoke enveloped the hull.
There were 10 beams of flames ejected by the Goatman, two of which hit a sailboat each, and the remaining 8 beams were missed. Fortunately, they all hit the deck. The ignited flames were quickly destroyed by the crew. extinguished.
"What's with all those smoke and fire?"
Hubbard looked at the battle on the sea and asked strangely, could it be that the other party also had the power of God.
His follower then said: "Sir, it may be some kind of deception by the other party. I saw it. We have already hit their ship. Because there is still some distance, the effect is not very good. Wait until we get close to the side of the other party's ship. Now, it’s time to fix them hard.”
However, what the people on the dock didn't know was that the situation on their galley was already in a miserable state.
"My hand! My hand!"
"Ah——!"
"Who come to save me!"
"I Need help! ”
Every galley hit by artillery was filled with screams and wails.
The distance between the two sides is now enough to ensure the accuracy of the exploration team's artillery. The shells carrying huge kinetic energy severely penetrated the relatively thin bulkhead of the Yangjiaoren River sailing ship, and then there were sawdust. Flying sideways, even if they were not directly injured by the shells, the sawdust flying around caused a severe wave of damage.
As for the horned men who were standing on the deck performing divine magic, the gunners decisively used grape bullets. After a burst of metal storm, the deck became like hell.
Hubbard and others standing on the dock could not see clearly. In their eyes, their own ship suddenly stopped moving.
"What happened? These guys."
Hubbard was a little annoyed.
"Give me more manpower to urge those bastards to continue the attack!"
Glen ordered to fire to continue to maintain deterrence while leaving the sea as soon as possible.
They are always the weak side, and the other party also has terrible witchcraft.
As for the captured team members, may God bless them.
But, he will definitely come back!
