Game of Thrones: The Red Dragon Lord.

Chapter 31 Planning and Killing

At night, under the hostage of three pirate ships, the Golden Fleece slowly sailed towards the Stone Steps Islands. At this time, Gavin finally learned the meaning of the flag signal from the captain.

The other party demanded that the Golden Fleece follow them to the Stepstones, otherwise they would use crossbows to sink the ship.

Faced with such tough and rogue means, Gavin seemed powerless. He clenched his fists, feeling unwilling but helpless. The other party did not engage in boarding battle, so no matter how strong Gavin was, he could not reach them.

The moonlight sprinkled on the sea, creating patches of silvery light, but it could not illuminate the dark situation. Gavin looked at the pirate ship looming in the distance, and his mind was quickly thinking about how to deal with it.

Just like that, at dusk one day later, Gavin vaguely saw an island in the distance. Through Hassan's introduction, he learned that they had arrived at the edge of the Stone Steps Archipelago.

The afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on the sea, outlining a golden outline of the mysterious island. Gavin held the side of the boat, staring at the front, his heart full of vigilance against the unknown.

Captain Hassan said solemnly, "If my guess is correct, we are now at Shipwreck Bay. This place is full of reefs and there is only one channel to enter. After passing the reefs, there is a huge natural deep-water port inside. I heard that this is the shipbuilding base of the Black Shark "Earl".

"It seems that they don't just want to rob. They took the ship hostage here. I'm afraid both the ship and the people are their targets." Gavin said calmly.

Captain Hassan replied worriedly, "I'm afraid that's the case. Black Shark Earl is very ambitious. I'm afraid we will be broken up and incorporated into his fleet. We can only be pirates in the future."

Gavin had no choice but to return to his room. Captain Hassan's description of the situation was exactly the same as his guess. As long as everyone on the ship was willing to cooperate with the pirates, they would not lose their lives.

The only problem is that the pirates will not let Frank Brown, the ship owner who lost everything, go easily in order to avoid retaliation in the future.

Thinking of the overall picture of the island he had just observed, Gavin gradually came up with a plan in his mind. After getting close to the island, he would try to jump off the boat and escape. Although he did not know the exact number of pirates on the island, Gavin would never get off the boat when the ship docked. Once he arrived at the opponent's territory, he would be like a fish on the chopping board, at the mercy of others.

All the achievements he had made would be plundered, and even if he was strong, he would not be able to withstand the siege of pirates. Thinking of this, Gavin immediately made up his mind and finalized the plan to go to the island first and start guerrilla warfare.

With his strength, he could easily deal with 20 to 30 people without armor, not to mention he had the Blood Dragon Guard and bows and arrows. Even if the pirates sent out a hundred-man team, they would not be able to stop him. Besides, it was unlikely that the pirates would send out so many people to search for him.

He also carried a sufficient amount of blood witch puppet ritual materials. As long as he found the opportunity, he could create an indomitable army.

At that time, the initiative will be in your own hands, whether it is to seize the ship and escape or to become the host, you can deal with it calmly.

Now that he had a plan, Gavin immediately put it into action, preparing food and some portable supplies in advance, as he would probably have to sleep in the wild for some time.

Just as Gavin had finished his preparations, the ship suddenly fell into chaos, with noise and exclamations one after another.

When Gavin ran to the deck, he found that the ship's owner, Frank Brown, had fallen in a pool of blood with his heart pierced by a sword. The first mate standing next to him was holding a bloody sword in his hand, which undoubtedly confirmed the identity of the murderer.

At this time, Captain Hassan also rushed here after hearing the noise. Seeing such a scene, he became furious and cursed at the first mate.

Gavin watched all this coldly from the side, and learned through the fierce argument that Frank intended to enter the Shipwreck Bay and burn the ships, so as to prevent the pirates from taking his property and use the fire ship to set fire to other pirate ships in the port.

However, at this moment, no one was willing to obey his orders. Seeing that no one supported him, he tried to do it himself. The result was self-evident. Frank, who had lost his mind, finally rebelled. After figuring out the whole story, Gavin drew the long sword at his waist.

Although Gavin also understood that Frank Brown died because of his own stupidity and impulsiveness, thanks to the other party's care during this period, at least he could avenge him.

Seeing Gavin draw his sword, the quarreling people were instantly silent, and the first mate looked at Gavin with contempt and said, "Hey, Sir Gavin, are you planning to avenge him?"

Gavin walked slowly towards the other party and said as he walked: "Yes, no matter what, you rebelled and killed your financial sponsor. Even if what he did was a little stupid, it is not a reason for you to kill him."

The first mate curled his lips, no longer looking at Gavin, but at his sailors and ordered: "Strip this knight and throw him into the sea."

Just as the sailors drew their weapons and prepared to attack, the Blood Dragon Guard behind Gavin rushed out in an instant like a beast out of a cage.

As fast as lightning, with an extremely powerful collision, it hit the sailor in front directly.

The sailor was like being hit by a sledgehammer. He flew out uncontrollably and knocked down several people along the way.

Accompanied by a series of screams and the dull thud of heavy objects falling to the ground, the sailors' camp instantly fell into chaos.

Gavin also came to the first mate with a sword in hand. His body was agile, like a willow branch swaying in the wind, and he easily dodged the opponent's powerful blow.

Then, his eyes flashed, and the sword in his hand slashed towards the opponent's sword hand with lightning speed.

"Crack!" The first mate's hand was broken at the wrist, blood gushed out, and the severed hand rolled and fell in the air.

The first mate let out a heart-wrenching scream and his face turned as pale as paper in an instant.

Gavin took advantage of the situation and kicked the first mate hard in the knee. The powerful force made the first mate's legs go limp and he fell to the ground involuntarily.

At the same time, the Blood Dragon Guards launched a violent pursuit against more than a dozen sailors.

Every time he swung his sword, there was a whirring sound. No one could withstand the terrifying force. Some sailors were knocked away by his punches, their bodies falling far away like kites with broken strings; others were chopped off with their weapons, with broken limbs and broken weapons scattered all over the ground. Under his powerful attack, no one could get close to Gavin.

Gavin walked slowly and calmly to the side of the first mate.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, revealing a hint of cold murderous intent.

Then, there was a flash of cold light, and the first mate's head was separated from his body, rolling to the ground. Blood spurted out like a fountain, dyeing a large area of ​​the deck red.
