NOVEL NEXT Chapter 34 Pirates and Villages
"It's so hot!"
Ron walked in front of Amber, his hands hanging down, and he almost stuck out his tongue to dissipate heat.
"Be careful, something is wrong here."
Amber glanced around. The combination of heat and silence in the forest made people very depressed.
The movement of dozens of people walking together is very loud, so there is no possibility of a sneak attack.
Nisaya didn't have any plans in this regard. Her idea was actually very simple. Find the pirates, defeat them, and then suppress the civilians who colluded with the pirates to harm the navy.
After walking like this for about ten minutes, my eyes suddenly became vast.
"This is…"
Everyone was shocked by the sight in front of them. In the open space not far away, thick wooden piles were nailed into the ground. This was nothing, but what made them angry was that these wooden piles were covered with Inserted is a man in a navy uniform.
It penetrates the body from the bottom and finally emerges from the neck.
"Damn it!"
Nisaya's eyes turned red immediately.
Death in battle is an unavoidable outcome for the navy, but the murderous behavior in front of them is undoubtedly a challenge to the dignity of the navy.
"Find those damn pirates and leave no one behind!"
She said through gritted teeth.
The crowd was excited and followed Nisaya's footsteps without any hesitation. After advancing nearly five hundred meters, a small village came into view.
Then I saw a group of pirates of different heights, short, fat, and thin, and wearing very strange clothes, standing in the middle of the road with their swords and swords.
"I've been waiting for you for a long time, Navy. Remember my name. Captain of the Adventure. Bounty of 10 million beli. Angry Ral!"
The leader of the pirates moved forward. He was about three meters tall, and the proportions of his upper body and lower body were a little uncoordinated. Especially his two arms, which were frighteningly thick.
"I'll send you to hell!"
The weapon Lal used was a knife that was wider than the door panel. With a single wave, he could cause a roar.
"snort!"
Nisaya snorted coldly, pulled out the long knife from her waist, waved it casually, pointed forward: "Kill!"
Her strength has also been greatly improved during this year. It can be said that except Amber, she is no weaker than anyone else.
As Nisaya took the lead and fought with Lal, other students also faced the pirates, and a melee began.
One side has the numerical advantage but lacks combat experience, while the other side has fewer people, but both are outlaws who often fight.
The sound of weapons clashing could not be heard, and suddenly there was a stalemate.
As for Amber, she was not among the students at the moment.
Within the village.
A group of ragged men, women, and children were huddled together, looking at the sudden appearance of the navy in front of them with great horror.
Their disgusted expressions made Amber feel uncomfortable.
"By the way, you hate the navy?"
He looked around, surrounded by the kind of slums that only exist in slums. "I'm here to rescue you. This is very hurtful, okay?"
"rescue?"
A man smiled miserably, revealing his extremely bright red gums, "Those pirates are the ones who rescue us, and you are just damn demons! If you want to kill, just kill them, we won't be able to survive long ago anyway."
"It sounds like there are some stories. If you don't mind, tell me."
Amber smiled and sat cross-legged on the ground, not minding that her white clothes were stained.
His attitude stunned the already desperate villagers.
"Everyone, everyone has their good and bad qualities, let alone the navy?"
Seeing this, Amber spread her hands and said, "Besides, aren't you all fine now? There will be a fight outside for a while. It doesn't matter if we chat, right?"
"If you want to know, I can tell you."
It was still the man who just spoke. He should be the leader of this group of villagers. "Do you know how many people there used to be in our village?"
"Uh, I don't know."
Amber scratched her head.
"There are nearly a thousand!"
The man showed a smile that was uglier than crying, "And what you see now is everyone here. If it weren't for that group of righteous pirates, I'm afraid we would still be trapped by those guys."
"You mean the navy of Egroth, right? Why would they do this?"
Amber held her chin with one hand, smiling with interest, but her eyes were very cold.
"It's all because of that...that guy named Colen!"
The man's body trembled, as if he remembered some horrific memory, "He would take away people from our village, sometimes one or two, sometimes more than ten, and once he left, he never came back. .
As for those who stay here, they have to dig under the island every day for a kind of ore called rock crystal, which is a cursed thing. "
After saying this, he pointed to his face and said, "How old do you think I am?"
"Thirty-five?"
Amber thought for a moment and gave her answer.
"Oh, actually I'm only eighteen years old."
Man, no, the boy pointed at his face that already had many wrinkles, and then pointed at a group of goosebumps companions around him.
"The oldest of them is only thirty. There is no one over forty in the village."
"That sounds miserable."
Amber exhaled softly, "Then the last question is, what happened in the open space outside was your doing?"
Hearing this, the young man gritted his teeth and admitted directly, "We did it. Young navy, if you want to avenge those guys, then come and do it."
"Oh, I have my own answer."
Amber stood up from the ground and dusted her pants a little, "There should be more than one village like yours, right?"
"I don't know. Anyway, we are the only ones on Black Gold Island."
The young man answered truthfully.
"That's it, then just go and do what you have to do. Live a good life here and no one will bother you again."
Amber's words stunned them all.
"Really...really?"
A woman who looked like an old lady asked with a trembling voice.
"Although I'm just a student, I know the admiral."
Amber smiled gently. There wasn't much he could do in the face of these suffering people.
Carrying the knife, he slowly walked out of the village, leaving only a somewhat unfamiliar figure behind the villagers.
Delayed justice is not justice, it is condescending charity to the victims.
Amber doesn't like doing this kind of thing, so he won't show much sympathy, because it won't change anything at all.
Instead of doing this, it is better to swing the knife a few more times.
After leaving the village, the battle outside was coming to an end. The students' side had won, but at the cost of some lives.
As for the pirates, only the guy named Lal is still standing, even though his body is covered with knife marks.
"Come on, Navy!"
Lal roared angrily, using the last strength of his body, like a desperate man charging towards the waves.
Even if he is just a pirate, he still has his pride.
