MTL - Pirates: Control Thunder and Lightning-Chapter 13 : fog

In front of Nicholas, a castle like a western fantasy novel stands tall, surrounded by a huge wall that is tens of meters high. It is hard to imagine how this small island built such a huge castle. .

"This castle should also be thousands of years old."

Just as Belin looked at this huge castle full of history, a huge roar sounded, and then Vestad put away his axe and smiled at Nicholas: "Captain, the door is open."

"Then go in and see what it is that gives the king of this country so much confidence."

Then Nicholas took the lead through the split castle gate.

At this time, the castle was dead silent, as if the people inside had disappeared out of thin air before Nicholas and the others came.

Inside the castle, huge candles can be seen everywhere, illuminating the interior of the castle, which was not well lit, as if it were in the daytime.

In the empty hall inside the castle, there are guards who do not know whether they are armor models or real people standing on both sides. At the end of the hall is a tall staircase. Above the steps is a huge throne. There are hundreds of guards in armor in front of the throne. Kneeling before the throne with arms on one knee.

On the huge throne, a huge figure was sitting at this time. He was wearing heavy armor and holding a sword in both hands. It was the tower that ordered his men to kill the messenger sent by the Rox Pirates. Ji Baisi is also the only king of this generation of Taji royal family!

Nicholas walked step by step, and after reaching the hall, he watched the people sitting on the throne.

The people above the throne seemed to be because of Nicholas and the others, and Taji Perth also raised his head.

"Oh... Rocks Pirates, the seventh division captain Thor Nicholas didn't expect Rocks to send you here. Originally I thought that guy would only send some of his pirates over here."

Taji Perth said calmly, as if he was not surprised at the arrival of Nicholas.

"You don't seem surprised at all, do you?"

Nicholas looked at King Perth sitting on the throne and said.

"Of course I'm not surprised. After all, it's just a matter of omitting some intermediate steps. In the original plan, first kill the messengers under Lockes, and then step by step lead to the higher combat power of the Lockes Pirates."

King Perth paused for a while, then glanced at Nicholas and said, "I just didn't expect it to be you, which makes me feel a little distressed."

"Actually, I don't want to come, but I can't help it. That guy called me to come. But I'm curious about what gave you so much courage to provoke that monster?"

Nicholas is really curious. After all, this guy Rox has a great reputation in the New World for so many years, and although he will pay tribute to many islands in the New World, it is more expensive than the heavenly gold to be handed over to the Tianlong people. There is still some gap, and in the new world, as long as you pay tribute to Rocks, you can get the protection of the Rocks Pirates.

This is also the survival method of many New World countries. By handing over money and materials to some powerful pirates in exchange for their shelter, it is like the Whitebeard Pirates have to maintain the cost of so many pirates, which is destined to be more than huge Expenditures, so the protection fee charged in the territory is the bulk of it, but the looting is just some details.

Nicholas couldn't figure out that the World Government would risk revenge by the Sword of Gilbek by entering the New World to punish these nations that did not turn in the heavenly gold.

This kind of thing is not harmful to his own country, why does King Perth take the risk of being retaliated by Rox to do such a thing.

Hearing this, King Perth's eyes flashed with a strange light, and then he said without emotion: "Hahaha, kid, have you underestimated the strength of the World Government? As for the resistance to the Rocks Pirates, this is not a matter of Something interesting!?"

Saying that, King Perth stood up, grabbed the front suddenly, and clenched his fists: "My soldiers, let them see your horror!"

Suddenly, the hundreds of armored guards who were kneeling in front of King Perth all slapped the armor on the chest with their left hand and bowed their heads: "I vow to defend the king's glory!"

......

And just when Nicholas and the others were in the castle, a white fog suddenly filled the entire Taji Island, and this white fog was rapidly spreading towards the entire island, and it seemed that it would not take long for the entire island to be covered. shrouded in islands.

"Ha ha..."

In the alley in the slums of Taji Island in the fog, a little girl was running in a hurry with a face of horror, and while running, she looked back in horror, as if something terrifying was chasing her.

boom!

Because he didn't pay attention to his feet, he tripped over a raised stone and threw himself to the ground involuntarily.

But it seemed that it was too late to think about the severe pain coming from her body. The little girl just looked at her body in panic, and she couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief when she found that there was no bleeding.

Suddenly there was the sound of da da footsteps leaping on the roof from behind.

The little girl suddenly looked terrified, and then looked at the garbage bins filled with all kinds of garbage and exuding a strong peculiar smell.

Without the slightest hesitation, she threw herself into the trash can. As she plunged into the trash can and kept moving toward it, the trash with various smells soon covered her entire thin body. live.

da da~

As if the feet of some animal were on the ground, along with the approach of this sound, there was the sound of twitching its nose to search for smells.

"Ah~qiu!"

It seems that because the smell in the trash can is too strong, the 'person' who was trying to use the smell to find the target couldn't help but sneezed several times in a row.

Katie, who was hiding in the trash can, covered her mouth with her little hands, trying her best not to make a sound.

Da da da, go away with the footsteps.

After a while there was no other sound around, the little girl Katie cautiously poked her head out of the trash can, looked around, and was relieved after confirming that no one was there. .

Only then did she have the opportunity to take out what was in her arms and take a look. It was a tattered cloth bag with some moldy bread in it.

"Wait for me... I'll definitely bring something to eat."

As if thinking of someone important, Katie kept cheering herself up.

After all, whether it was the thick fog that could hardly be seen one meter away, or the terrifying scene she saw when she was looking for food before, she had a bad feeling in her heart, and she wanted to hurry back home and put the food away. Bring it to your family.

The little girl Katie looked at the moldy bread in front of her and swallowed.

"With these food, everyone will be able to live, they must eat, or they will die."

Then he put away the rotten cloth bag and carefully put it into his arms.

Just when Katie climbed out of the trash can and was about to run towards the house, suddenly there was a huge roar in the direction of the castle where King Perth lived.

This sound made Katie's pace slow down. The roar of artillery fire from the port of the island before, she thought it was another group of pirates, Taji Island has encountered pirates before, but now even the island is the most Battles have taken place in safe places, doesn't it mean that this time the pirates successfully broke through the defense on the dock side.

Thinking of all the rumors about pirates she had heard before, Katie became even more anxious. Although she had no treasure at home, her family would be in danger in the face of murderous pirates!

At this time, Katie didn't realize that even if she went back to face the danger that her family could not deal with, what use would she be as a child.
