Chapter 34 Robbery

May 16th of 1573 of the Holy Empire.

In the far southern sea, Arcado is happily counting a large number of gold coins with McVlon and Meadow. They have earned thousands of gold coins in just a few months by relying on the superior speed and load of the Black Pearl.

"Hey, Meadow, do you know how rich we are?" Arcado smiled proudly in front of Meadow with a large pile of gold coins.

"Try, I want to know how rich we are." Meadow sat close to Arcado, his hand was secretly held by Arcado, and said shyly.

"We can immediately build another new all-metal ship, which is bigger and better than this one. We can earn so many gold coins twice, no, three times as fast." Arcado announced loudly, as if he was already the boss of the fleet at this moment.

"Old Tom complained the day before yesterday." Meadow learned from old Tom and said, "The gold coins on the ship have affected the load of the ship."

"Hahaha." Arcado looked at Meadow and McVlon with a smile and felt his incomparable happiness. He found the long-lost family affection and happiness in the brother and sister.

"Go west, and we will be able to go home in two hours, gentlemen." Old Tom closed the monoculars and turned back to Elvin.

"Notice the sailors on duty to rest, and the rested people will be on duty at their respective posts. We are about to arrive at Mahu Port." Grand Lieutenant Morgan shouted.

The black pearl immediately became busy. The dark ship sailed in the night, and it looked extremely dazzling on the dark sea, as if it were really beautiful pearls of Neptune.

At dawn the next day, most of the crew were sleeping on the second deck. McValong urged several sailors and blacksmiths on duty to load and unload today's cargo in a large crane, and several blacksmiths on duty chatted on the bow deck. These goods were shipped to another port in the mined province, with dozens of tons of steel and dozens of tons of wheat.

Meadow accompanied Arcado, looked at the list of goods provided by Maggie's supervisor, and checked the goods on board one by one.

The dock in the morning was still a little cold and misty. In the process of a wordless chat between Akado and Maggie, Akado suddenly felt the danger.

"Mr. Maggie," Akado stared at Maggie and said, "Where did this shipment go?"

"Sute* Pier in Luolei Province." Maggie replied.

"Who is so leisurely and elegant to transport so many heavy things to a small secondary port?" Arcado pinched the back of Meadow's hand and hinted that she would tell McVlon to be on alert, and then he continued to ask as if he were chatting.

Meadow looked at Arcado and immediately understood that something difficult was going to happen today, and quickly ran to the Black Pearl.

"Yoch, the pastor of the local religious institute." Maggie said, "I don't know where he got the goods."

Seeing that Maggie did not deliberately hide it, Arcado knew that this matter should have nothing to do with Maggie.

"Mr. Maggie, I think we have been tricked." Arcado said that before Maggie could react, Arcado ran to the Black Pearl.

"Wait, you haven't signed yet." Maggie was stunned for a moment and shouted loudly, but as soon as she shouted out, she could no longer say anything, because he saw that a group of guards of the religious institute rushed past him with swords, and then a brigade of soldiers went straight to the Black Pearl.

Akado rushed to the springboard of the black pearl and shouted at several sailors who had picked up the long sword: "Hear the springboard and be careful of bows and arrows." Then he began to operate the crane, lifted a bundle of steel still hanging in mid-air to the top of the springboard, and then shouted loudly to the cab, "Old Tom, drive the boat!" After saying that, he ran to help several sailors push the anchor chain winch.

At the end of the springboard, the soldiers who rushed up were knocked into the water one by one because of the limited space. McValong was extremely powerful. None of the soldiers rushed to him were his generals. In a moment, five or six soldiers were knocked off the side of the ship.

The captain of the guard on the shore loudly commanded the soldiers behind him: "Archers, cover with a round of shooting." Dozens of archers behind began to shoot arrows, because Arcado reminded that McVlon and several sailors were ready, but they were still forced to find a place to hide. As soon as they were forced to hide, they rushed to the five soldiers on the boat on the springboard to protect the side of the side of the boat. While McVallon rushed up with several sailors to compete for the springboard and kept attacking more and more soldiers rushing to the deck, Arcado, who put away the iron anchor, rushed to the side of the crane and cut off the rope on the crane with a sword. The steel hanging over the springboard fell in response and suddenly broke the pure iron springboard. The ten on the springboard Several soldiers fell into the water and then came up with blood.

Several soldiers on the boat saw that there was no way back and rushed up crazily. As a result, they were defeated by McVlon, two were killed, and the rest were kicked into the sea. After cleaning up the soldiers on the deck, Arcado and McVallon breathed a sigh of relief, and the archers on the shore began to shoot crazily, and the arrows fell like rain. The archers seemed to be trying to kill the people on the deck directly.

Akado and McVlon took sailors to quickly hide from protruding places such as vents. Because the ship's starboard is high and the archers are shooting back, there are many dead corners on the deck, and everyone is safe for the time being.

At this critical moment, everyone felt a shock to the hull, the loud noise in the power room came, and the black pearl started.

At this time, Pastor York of the religious institute came out of nowhere. He stood in the middle of the soldiers on the shore and shouted to the black pearl with a big horn: "Listen, people on board. As long as you give up resistance, I promise not to hurt you."

Looking at the boat getting farther and further, and no one took his words, he continued to shout, "As long as you stop the ship and come back and dedicate this ship to me, no, it is dedicated to the Pope's Hall. You will receive the blessings of the gods, and I will also forgive your crimes."

"Go to your god, go to your crimes!" Old Tom replied angrily with the horn of the captain's room, "If you want to take away the ship, there is no door."

After the scolding, old Tom immediately turned around and ordered, "The second power module is started to increase the speed to 15 knots. There may be warships outside the port. Be careful, everyone."

Outside the port, several small wooden boats were full of soldiers. They held bows and arrows in their hands in an attempt to intercept the Black Pearl. Unfortunately, these people shouted helplessly. The Black Pearl had no intention of slowing down at all. The blade-like bow directly smashed a wooden ship on the route and killed them. Several soldiers, who were scared by the soldiers on other ships, did not dare to shoot arrows.

At sea, the 5 mast giant sailboat of the Holy Empire was ordered to intercept the Black Pearl and tried to chase it for a while, but found that the Black Pearl was getting farther and farther away.

"Captain, they are really too fast. Our speed just exceeded 17 knots. They just now have at least 19 knots. Is this a ship full of cargo? If it doesn't load so many goods, it will definitely be able to drive at a speed of 22 knots. The first officer looked at the Black Pearl in the telescope and said.

"We can't catch up, we'll return." The captain of the ship did not sink.

"Where are we going?" Leaving the field of view of the warship, old Tom asked Arcado.

"I haven't thought about it yet. First sail to the elf forest, add some fresh water, and then go south and stay away from this damn continent." Arcado sighed and said.
