Most of the citizens of Azov City were hiding at home, and the few who went out also lowered their heads in fear, trying their best to avoid the pirates' sight. In this situation, Daxter and Anna, who were running shouting and screaming on the street, stood out.
"Ahhh, in this case, the beard is useless!"
Anna anxiously threw away the pile of beards.
"Princess, here is the bow I just brought from outside the weapon shop."
"I still need horses! Are there no horses around here?"
"I didn't see any! There were pirates all around! If we were running around like this, we would be doomed if we bumped into them!" Dust came up with an idea behind Anna, "Not long ago, I found an underground water source when I was looking for water. The intersection of the police is not far from here, as high as half a person! How about we go there and hide?"
Anna thought this was a good idea as soon as she heard it. The water source in Azov City is provided by artificial pipes laid underground. The city of Azov had been cut off from water supply by Ella for more than half a month, and those water pipes must have dried up, enough for them to hide. If you are lucky and can find the right direction inside, you can even run directly out of the city. As for the plan to assassinate Ragnar, it would not be too late to wait until they are in a safe place before planning it slowly.
"Dust, you are quite useful in strange places!" Anna said, "I thought you were useless before, but I wrongly blamed you!"
But Dast scratched his head in embarrassment: "No, let's forget it. There is an issue related to your princess' dignity..."
Anna reacted immediately: Dust said that the underground pipe was only half a person tall, so if you wanted to pass through it, you would have to crawl on the ground like a mouse. And if you want to escape Azov City, this crawling distance will not be short. This is indeed a major issue concerning the dignity of the princess.
After a fierce inner struggle, Anna nodded as if she was about to die: "It doesn't matter. Compared with being caught by pirates, this humiliation is nothing! Let's go!"
Dast nodded excitedly: "Okay, princess, come with me."
Under the leadership of Dast, the two turned a few corners and came under a bridge. There is a round hole blocked by several iron bars.
"Although it looks blocked, the iron bars are actually loose."
Dust stretched out his hand and easily removed a fence.
"Princess, it's great that you have such awareness. If you want to hide from pursuing soldiers, this is the best place. No one would go to such a smelly place to find someone!"
"What... wait a minute!" Anna hurriedly called out to Dust, who was kneeling on the ground and dismantling the fence. "Did you just say it stinks? Isn't it a water pipe? Why does it stink?"
"Is it a water pipe? A sewer pipe..."
"Get out of here!" Anna kicked Dust away. "I will never get into the sewer pipe! This is about the dignity of the princess!"
Perhaps because he was used to being kicked by Anna, Dust quickly got up rubbing his face and continued to persuade Anna: "Princess, you are here... You should also know that this is indeed the safest place. …”
"Uh...uh...uh..."
Anna tried her best to suppress her disgust for sewer pipes.
"Okay... okay, in order not to be caught by the pirates, I will just go in and hide..."
"That's right!" Dast nodded repeatedly, "I think as long as we hide until night, we can sneak out and find a chance to leave the city. If we are hungry, there are many rats inside that we can catch and eat..."
"Get out of here!"
Dust was kicked away by Anna again. This time, he rubbed the right side of his face and said pitifully: "Princess, I'm serious! I have learned sixteen recipes for cooking mice..."
"Where did you learn these strange livelihood skills? That's enough! It's up to me to figure it out myself!"
Anna stamped her foot, then put her hand into her mouth and blew hard!
A distant whistle sounded, and soon, the cry of an eagle was heard in the distance. It wasn't long before the familiar falcon began to circle above their heads.
"What are you doing standing there? Run in the direction it's flying!" Anna waved to Dust, "With it in the air overlooking the street, we can avoid those pirates!"
"But it didn't fly anywhere, it just kept spinning in place...Ah, it started barking again, princess, what does this mean?"
Anna's face suddenly turned green: "What's wrong! This area has been surrounded! We need to find a place to hide quickly..."
"Okay!" Dast rolled up his sleeves and unloaded the sewer grate with great energy.
"Can you only think of hiding in the sewer???"
Anna grabbed Dust's clothes and dragged him away from the bridge pier. There were many private houses scattered on both sides of the bridge. Anna found the tallest house among them, kicked open the door and broke in.
"Don't be afraid! It's me, the White Knight!"
Facing the gaze of the family in the house, Anna hurriedly threw Dast to the ground. Dast's reaction was faster than Anna's. As soon as his body hit the ground, he jumped up like a carp and stood in front of that family. He flipped his hair handsomely.
"The pirates are afraid of my talents and are hunting me everywhere. Kind people, can you provide me with a hiding place?"
In the city of Azov, Dast is known as a hero who has saved the city many times. As soon as he opened his mouth, the family did not hesitate at all. The wife stepped forward and carefully closed the door, while the husband took Dust and Anna to the top floor.
Through the window, Anna saw that pirates had surrounded the surrounding streets. And more and more pirates are coming here. Before long, even Amy appeared in sight.
"What's going on?" Anna shouted, "They seem to know that I am in this area!"
"I think it's because of the eagle." Dast pointed upward. "While the eagle is looking down at the street, people on the street can also see the eagle. And the whistle you just made was really special. So , you still have to keep a low profile when you are escaping..."
"Ah ah! In this case, we can only do one thing and two things!"
Anna completely ignored Dust's preaching and took off the bow from her back.
"Anyway, they already know that I'm in the area. Let's just shoot a few of their leaders and take advantage of their chaos to escape even if they can't!"
In Anna's eyes, those pirates standing defenseless on the street were like lambs waiting to be slaughtered. All she has to do is choose a suitable prey.
Amy was directly excluded. Although Anna was very concerned about the fire, Amy was now protected by Aphrodite and would definitely die if shot with an arrow. She wants to find another person with a higher status in this group of pirates. Only by shooting such a person will the pirates be in chaos.
At this moment, Ella appeared in her field of vision with a group of people.
