The attacker [Gunpowder Artist], who belonged to a third party, was still sitting far away on the beach at the end of Liuying Street without moving.
It seemed that the wonderful fireworks show just now had nothing to do with her.
The expression under the mask was as good as Byron's.
"I was almost fooled by this old fox.
The pirates I assassinated before were obviously little minions who were deliberately pushed out to fool people. This one is the real big fish.
Redbeard is stronger than I thought.
He has obviously been a member of Parliament for two terms, but he still has a trump card that no one knows about.
These veteran pirates are indeed old sea dogs who have experienced countless big waves. It may be more difficult to target them next time. "
Among the pirates, just by looking at the wanted poster, you can roughly estimate a person's strength and danger.
[Low Sequence]: First-level attendant, third-level wanted criminal, 0-3,000 pounds; second-level occupation, second-level wanted criminal, 3,000-10,000 pounds;
[Mid-sequence]: Level 3 elites, first-level wanted criminals, 10,000 to 50,000 pounds; fourth-level heroes, special wanted criminals, more than 50,000 pounds.
Further up, there are almost no high-sequence pirates who will be wanted.
Once you reach that level, you are already qualified to sit on the dining table and take a share of the pie from the rulers of various countries in an open and honest manner.
So, when the overlord wants to kill you because you have a big weapon, you'd better really have it!
Iron Anchor Bay knows best that there are no fourth-level extraordinary pirates in the North Sea for a long time, and a group of congressmen are all third-level big pirates.
[Red Beard] It’s hard to say what Edward’s true strength is.
But the bounty amount equivalent to the fourth level, even if it is only the floor price of the fourth level, is enough to illustrate how cruel this scourge is.
“The situation in Anchor Bay is not good.
If this murderer becomes the governor, the people of the Bay will definitely not be lucky. "
The gunpowder artist turned away, preparing to recheck the control rights of the hundreds of fortress guns and gunners in the harbor.
As a third-level [Artisan], she firmly believes that in this world, range is the truth and firepower is power.
If they don't solve the problem, it must be because the gunpowder yield is not enough!
Unfortunately, she obviously underestimated the determination and ruthlessness of the enemy, and did not yet understand what she and Anchor Bay were about to face.
...
The short day passed by in an instant.
In a corner of the port city, in an area where Bay residents live, a faint light shines through the window of a house.
Two children, one large and one small, were lying next to the window, looking out from time to time through the glass, which was obviously not very well made.
"Sister, I'm hungry. Why isn't mom back yet?"
But the sisters' expectations again and again only resulted in disappointment again and again.
Under the dark night, that familiar gentle figure never appeared.
At this time in the past, the mother who worked in the bakery had returned home and would definitely bring them fragrant white bread.
Sometimes we even bring them sweet honey bread and unforgettable jam bread...
That little surprise is their best memory in childhood.
"Little Amy, please hold on, mom must be delayed by something, and she will be back soon.
If you are really hungry, drink some leftover mushroom soup from lunch. "
The elder sister, who was only ten years old at most, suppressed her worries and did not forget to comfort her younger sister.
In this way, the two sisters waited for another half an hour, added firewood to the fireplace at home, and were about to lie down on the windowsill and fall asleep.
Suddenly I heard a knock on the door from outside.
"Mom is back!"
The two sisters jumped up happily and fluttered towards the door like two little butterflies.
But when they opened the door together and were about to throw themselves into the arms of their mother who had been waiting for a long time, they suddenly stopped in their tracks.
"Mom, what's wrong with you?!"
It was indeed their mother outside the door.
But it looked like he had fallen down, his clothes were stained with mud, his skirt was torn, and he still had a faint smell of blood.
The woman with an unusually pale face lifted the basket slung in her arm and explained in a somewhat jerky tone:
"I accidentally fell on the road and sprained my foot.
I didn't meet anyone I knew, so I finally walked back alone. The children helped me in quickly. "
The two sisters' doubts about why their mother came back so late suddenly disappeared.
He quickly stepped forward and took the woman's hand, carefully helping her into the house.
They were so concerned that they didn't even realize that their mother's hands were as cold as two ice cubes.
And there is still a piece of footprints left at the door, like a headless fly pacing repeatedly.
Before they opened their mouths to invite their mothers in, the other's feet never... touched the threshold!
Two little girls helped the woman sit on the chair, one found her medicinal wine, and the other poured her a glass of hot water.
"Mom, I'm so hungry. What should we eat tonight?"
My sister, whose stomach had been growling for a long time, couldn't help but be hungry and said coquettishly to her mother.
When I raised my head, I saw that what my mother slowly took out from the basket was not the sweet white bread as I imagined.
But a pile of blood-stained knives, forks, axes and saws!
Then I saw my mother, no, it was that unknown thing, with a pair of pale green eyes and a scary smile on her lips.
"What are you doing standing still? Come here quickly, mom is about to serve dinner."
hiss--!
The hair on my sweat suddenly exploded.
The two sisters have heard many bizarre stories about the sea in this pirate port since they were children. They are not simple little girls in a remote country who don't understand anything.
I immediately realized something was wrong.
Just as he was about to turn around and escape from the house, he was shocked to find that the shadow of "mother" suddenly lengthened, connecting their shadows together.
For a moment, he couldn't even move his fingers, and a horrified expression froze on his face.
Then, they saw "Mother" grabbing a bloody ax on the table and moving it step by step in front of them.
Looking left and right, he seemed to be seriously considering which one he should eat first.
The two sisters couldn't escape, couldn't scream, and only clear tears slowly flowed from the corners of their eyes.
They are sad not only because they are about to die, but also because their real mother may...never come back.
Seeing the ax in "mother's" hand raised high, she was about to swing it down hard on her younger sister.
The movement suddenly stalled.
The two sisters opened their eyes wide and saw a pale, faceless figure emerging from behind their "mother", with their toes under her heels.
A blood-red rune on his forehead flashed rapidly.
“It’s so noisy that even having dinner is unsettling.
Urging, urging, isn't it just killing a mere [Wild Hunt]? How can I kill him if I can't meet him?
Is it none of my business whether the bait you sent out dies or not? Isn't there still [Ripper] here? "
Now that the food is delicious, it’s time to continue wielding the axe.
It seemed that the person opposite the contract had used some kind of coercive means, and the pale figure flickered for a while.
Suddenly, as if being pulled by a rope, the back of the head floated up out of thin air, and then disappeared into the air.
The soul and life force in "Mother's" body were also pulled out by the [Faceless Man] during his struggle, and were submerged into a silver coin with an octopus pattern embedded in his chest.
That is what belongs to the Bay ethnic group.
Only a roar echoed in the room:
"Damn Red Beard, I'm going to eat you sooner or later!"
"Mother" also fell to the ground slumped.
After a long time.
The suppressed and helpless lamentations of the two sisters gradually came from the house.
A once happy family was shattered in an instant.
And this is just the beginning of many tragedies in Anchor Bay.
