Assassin’s Adventure - Chapter 232

Captain Gordon’s gold coins are not easy to get. People can endure harsher conditions for higher gold coins, and it is enough for Gordon to take more means to train these sailors to become real warriors instead of a group of rabble. The general meaning may be It’s almost like a high salary.

If you want to achieve great things, the rabble is far from enough.

The arrival of the storm turned the sea upside down, and the bow of the ship split the waves, but the overall turbulence could not be suppressed. The strong wind filled the sails, but the pirates still followed closely.

“Those pirates really don’t want to die. If we don’t get to the reef area, we will be surrounded.”

Allen tightly clasped the side of the boat to prevent himself from being washed into the sea by the rising waves. The entire deck was soaked, and seawater continued to spread up. Of course, the heavy rain also exacerbated this process.

“Where’s the sailman? My order is to hang all the sails! Why isn’t the top sail up.”

Gordon came out of the cabin. He just went to visit Andrea. The little girl was only severely frightened, and there was nothing serious, but the cabin was soaked in some water.

“Captain, we can’t hang our sails any more! The mainmast can’t handle it like this.”

shouted a sailor who was raining heavily on the mast, and that was the only way to convey what he wanted to say.

Gordon looked at the mast, which was trembling slightly in the strong wind, and then at the pirate ship that was getting closer.

In big waves, it’s a dead end to lose weight to speed up the boat, and the only way to get out of this situation is to put the sails full.

“Follow your orders, sailor! I know the Jackdaw better than you do, and I can handle the storm!”

“Yes Captain!”

The sailor chooses to trust his captain, and it is impossible to put a boat in danger.

“Mitch, arrange for someone to pull up two more back cables to secure the main mast.”

“Yes, Captain! Pull out the spare lock, quick!”

This chase continued into the night. In this dark cloudy night, only the explosion of thunder could barely see the distant ships. The lookout had tried his best to see the reefs on the route.

The pirate’s clipper had been hanging behind, and as the waves swayed up and down, Gordon could even see a ship directly overturned by the waves and turned into a pile of wreckage.

The moodiness of the sea is vividly reflected at this moment, and any grievances and benefits are nothing compared to the monstrous waves.

“The reef area!”

boom!

A flash of lightning pierced the sky, accompanied by violent thunder, and the hoarse shouts of watchers, because of the cover of darkness, the reef was already in sight.

“Right full rudder! Watch the hull pitch!”

Almost all the sailors hugged the nearest object tightly to fix themselves, but at this moment, there was a big wave. The sea swept the entire deck, making the hull a dangerous fifty-degree inclination, and the lookout hand was directly thrown out. Both hands firmly grasped a lock.

“Hold on!”

Under the power of heaven, people could only pray silently, the sailors fell on the deck, and even the cannons fixed on the gun positions were broken off the ropes and drifted towards the side of the ship.

The front of the wave is over, and the Jackdaw has not been dumped so far thanks to the cannons that were ballast because they couldn’t let go. But the sea has completely washed into the cabin.

If there is one word to describe it, it should be the water curtain hole, and the interior of the entire ship was hardly spared.

At this moment, the back cable has been pulled and creaked, and then it snapped like a taut string in an instant. The shaking of the mast is already visible to the naked eye, and if no measures are taken, the Jackdaw is likely to lose most of its mobility due to the rupture of the main mast.

“Put the sails away!”

Gordon ordered loudly, but the lookout on the mast was already hanging in the air, and no one carried out his order.

He looked at the sailors who were rolling on the ground, relying only on the sail ropes tied to their bodies to keep them from falling into the sea, he could only grit his teeth and grab the rope ladder to the mast. can lead to sinking.

Gordon took off his heavy clothes, let the rain hit his sturdy muscles, and his water-filled boots were thrown aside, and he jumped on the rope and began to climb up.

The rain made him unable to open his eyes a little, but in the heavy rain he could barely see the sailor hanging in the air.

“Grab my hand!”

Lookout hand’s hands have been worn by the rope, and the pain is piercing, but he does not dare to let go, falling into the sea is basically equivalent to death.

His persistence was not in vain, and he finally saw hope at this moment.

“captain!”

He held the hand that Gordon handed over, these hands were so cold because of the rain, but they were full of infinite power.

Gordon pulled him back from the waving line with one hand, and exclaimed, “I want you to help me stow the sails, or the masts won’t hold up!”

The latter nodded, and the two quickly climbed up the mast, trying to untie the ropes fastened to the mast.

When Mickey climbed up from the deck, he heard the screams from the mast and saw the two busy people on the top, so he quickly picked up the others.

“Get the sails up!”

“Yes, sir!”

After the upper deck was released, the sailors below finally pulled the rigging to retract the upper sails, and the main mast of the Jackdaw finally stopped shaking violently.

Gordon is now on the watchtower, looking at the dense reef in front of the ship’s port. Of course, there are more hidden underwater. It is not recorded by conventional charts. There are no islands around this reef, and there are few ships. Arrival, it was only recorded that Coolic passed by occasionally many years ago.

The White Shark has been left far behind by the Jackdaw, and the hull of the battleship is in much better condition than the Jackdaw. The Jackdaw’s turn made Wilson aware of the arrival of his destination.

“Prepare to reel! Half-sail forward~www.mtlnovel.com~ He held the rudder in one hand while giving orders to the sailors under him. Then he gradually steered to the right.

Boom! !

The two pirate ships that were already close to each other opened fire, and fired two shots with the almost non-threatening bow gun. In the stormy weather, the flying shells were very different from the target position, and then fell into the sea.

“Captain, shall we fight back?”

“You call this an attack? The destination is almost here, order everyone to stick to their posts, and the time to fight back is coming.”

“Yes Captain!”

“Cannonball stuffed sailors! We’re going to kill tonight, hahaha…”

The dark night hides great danger, and the speed of the pirate ships varies, and the one who walks ahead can easily become the victim of this reef.
