Attack of the Pirates
Ah Dai scratched his head This word, pirate, did not have any significantto him, and when he encountered this unknoord, he decided to return to the room to ask Gliss To his, so no matter what he met, he will alant to understand it first, even if he could not remember it later on
“Teacher, Teacher, there is a huge shi+p outside,pirate! Pirate! What is a pirate?”
Ah Dai said excitedly while running into the room
When Gliss heard this, he was shocked He sat up fro? Pirates have come?”
Ah Dai nodded: “It’s a big black shi+p, their sale having a huge skull on it All the people on our boat is yelling pirate, I don’t know if that’s a good or bad thing…
Gliss furrowed his brows, although he wasn’t afraid of pirates, he still does not wish to face the like this He can only hope that the crewmen aboard the boat can deal with them
[Jerry: I think he’s seasick :p]
Ah dai continued asking his questions : “Teacher, what does pirate mean?”
Gliss answered without thinking: “Pirates are just people who rob other people’s things, they will sometimes kill people too”
Hearing Gliss’ explanation, Ah Dai let out a breath of air, and said while s to be afraid of, I don’t have anything for them to rob, but oh teacher, you old coins on you, they will probably rob those, you should hide the this, Ah Dai started to look for hiding places around the room
Hearing Ah Dai’s silly words, Gliss felt a rush on warht to hi has it been since someone has cared about hirabbed Ah Dai, throwing him onto the bed in one swift motion, “Be quiet for me”
Ah Dai did not understand why teacher would be so angry, so he sat there on the bed, not daring to make a sound
“Ding Ding” sounds ca shi+p to trerab ahold of the wall next to him to be able to stand still, he also knows, this was probably the pirates co to plunder the shi+p, because the sound just the was the sound of grappling hooks landing on the shi+p’s body The noises outside caused Gliss to be even more annoyed, first was the o up a level, and then his stomach acid started toseasick, truly unbearable
“All the people aboard the shi+p, hear up, we are pirates, so hurry up and take out all your valuables, otherwise don’t blah voice shouted froan their plundering Gliss knows, the pirates aren’t trustworthy people at all, even if you hand over the goods, the pirates still will not let anyone live After all, what pirate wants to be hunted down by the navy The best way to keep a secret is to kill all the witnesses Sinking the shi+p is their usual style of doing things, not only does doing that save tiht to himself: “Looks like, I must personally take care of this, because I don’t want to swim, that is impossible to even consider”
Pushi+ng open the door, Gliss walked outside, the sunlight reflecting off the surface of the ocean instantly caused hirabbed the rails of the shi+p and started dry vo
A pair of s his back,the lastthere, worriedly looking at him
“Go back to the room, hurry!” Gliss shouted with some strictness
Ah Dai hesitated, because even though Gliss’ tone was rough, there contained no coldness in his voice, but instead it sounded like he was caring for Ah Dai instead Ah Dai didn’tthat staring contest going for some time After the time it took for an incense stick to burn, Gliss finally snapped out of his trance Gliss grabbed Ah Dai and shoved him back into the roo Ah Dai, he walked towards the noisy area
This group of pirates were obviously outlaws, every single one of therouping up all the passengers to the side of the shi+p The passenger shi+p’s captain and the crewathered in front of thea scared silly expression fro their heads to fear
A pirate with an eyepatch and ten other pirates were in thewith the shi+p’s captain, Gliss used a wind attribute ic to eavesdrops their conversation
“This elder brother, please, I aained from this trip to you, just spare our shi+p please I promise not to report this incident, so please?” The shi+p’s captain obviously kne pirates usually took care of things, so he tried to tempt them
The one eyed pirate laughed uproariously, “Profit? How much profit can you really earn, don’t try and play this trick on randfather, is in a good ht live But, if you want to play so merciless”
While saying that, he suddenly slashed the scimitar in his hand towards the side of the shi+p There was a flash of light and a “boom” sound could be heard The side of the shi+p suddenly had a gaping hole Gliss’ heart thumped, this pirate’s skills aren’t bad at all! Just from that last attack alone, he could tell that the pirate had DouQi, which only experts possessed The edge of the blade didn’t touch the shi+p, but still caused that degree of dae from the Qi projection alone
The shi+p’s captain and the crewhtened silly by the demonstration, and had no words to say
The one eyed pirate shouted to his underlings: “Little ones, hurry it up! After we finish this plundering, we can go back to eat and drink to our heart’s content!” All the pirates started cheering following that shout The first layer of the shi+p’s hold had already been opened, and all the passengers were held hostage on the deck, where they were being searched and plundered by the pirates If any of the passengers resisted, they would instantly be beaten up by several pirates Eventually, all the passengers succumed to fears, some even took the initiative to offer up their valuables for the sake of their oell-being
