Valkyrie Europa

Chapter 465 The Knights Templar
"Captain, let everyone rest and rest for a while." Panting heavily, the first mate came to Captain Dinesh and suggested, "We've been away for half a day, and they shouldn't be able to catch up. Bar."

This stout man paddled desperately for most of the day in the cabin, panting and sweating from exhaustion.

Although as a sea ship that mainly sails by sails, rowing can't increase the speed much, but in the situation of escaping, even a little more speed is good.

"No!" Captain Dinesh resolutely vetoed his proposal: "This is a decisive battle for almost all the pirates in the entire sea! There are so many ships, no one knows what the situation will be like, and the fleeing ships are all warships. There are also a lot of Clippers, what if a few ships come to our direction? We still have to finish the game! We must leave here as soon as possible! The farther the better!"

"Okay." The first officer took a few sips of water before saying, "Then I'll go down and continue paddling!"

"En." Captain Dinesh nodded, his face was livid, and he didn't say much.

Then he looked at the other crew members and said loudly: "This time we can escape from such a dangerous situation. It is already under the favor of the Valkyrie. Now don't take advantage of the pirates and run away. What are you waiting for? You can rest at any time Rest, back to Portugal can rest enough, but now, we must do everything possible to run farther! Everyone work hard, wait until back to Portugal, sell the spices, everyone has a reward! Big rewards !"

However, his promise did not arouse much feedback. In the exhaustion of the whole body, everyone's responses were sparse.

When it comes to spices, Captain Dinesh can't help but feel a little distressed. In order to escape, every ship lost a lot of spices. It's all money!
Hey, it’s useless to be distressed now, I hope that after returning to Portugal, the remaining spices can be sold at a good price
Just as he was thinking, another exclamation came from above his head, it was the frightened voice of the watchman.

"There is a ship! There is a strange ship!"

Have a boat?Aren't there pirates?What strange ship?

After fixing the rudder wheel in his hand, Captain Dinesh climbed to the top of the mast with light work.

Looking around, I saw that not far from their northwest, there was a boat sailing at high speed.

It was indeed a strange ship, it was completely black, but it had no oars, no sails, not even a mast, but its speed was unbelievably fast, even more sailed than the fastest Captain Dinesh had ever seen. The Clippers are going fast!
It is like a black arrow, soaring over the sea, leaving only a long white line.

It didn't fly any flags, and it didn't look like a pirate ship.And it didn't seem to see the three small merchant ships next to it, heading straight to the west.

Captain Dinesh's fleet traveled from west to east, preparing to return.And the direction that the fast ship was heading was the area where the pirates in the Northern and Southern Oceans were fighting!
What kind of ship is this?How can it run so fast without oars or sails?It doesn't look like a pirate ship, but why run to that dead place?Is it the wrong way?Do you want to send a signal to remind them?
After hesitating for a while, Captain Dinesh didn't make up his mind to warn the clipper that there was danger ahead, so he just watched it disappear into the distant horizon.

Hey, forget it, what do you do if you care so much about other people's affairs, what if it also participates in the war?It's important to go back quickly!These things are beyond our control.

Without thinking too much, under the command of Captain Dinesh, the fleet sailed all the way east.

Another day passed, the weather was calm, there was no wind or rain, and Captain Dinesh's heart gradually eased.

It has been nearly two days since they escaped there. At this speed, they should not be able to catch up. Moreover, we only have three small boats, and it is not worth the effort to chase them. Wait until the pirates decide the winner. Without strength, the Spice Islands had plenty of merchant ships for them to rob, each of which was full of fat meat, and they should have looked down on their own little mosquito leg meat.

Thinking of this, Captain Dinesh's nerves stretched for a long time before he slowly relaxed.

Hey, everyone has worked so hard for such a long time, let's take a rest in batches, just go back to sleep for a while, and comfort little Dias by the way, he is also worried and scared these days.
Just as he was about to issue an order, another exclamation came from above his head, it was still the watchman, but this time, his voice was more of surprise.

"There's a fleet! There's a fleet! It's the flag of Spain! It's the Spaniards! It's the Spanish navy!"

Portugal and Spain are countries of brothers. The relationship between the two countries is very good, and the people of the two countries have always been friendly.Naturally, the Spanish navy would not embarrass itself with these small ships.

But, why did the Spanish navy come to Nanyang?
Why not protect the homeland, but fight some small pirates near the sea, travel thousands of miles, and go to Nanyang?Is it to exterminate pirates?No, even if the news of the Vikings coming to the Spice Islands is passed back from the Spice Islands, the fleet will not come so fast. Even if it does come, Spain should not be the only one who wants to take this opportunity to wipe out all the pirates People come, why don’t other countries come?
Of course, these questions are not what Captain Dinesh should think about. No matter how much he thinks about it, he will not get an answer. He just needs to pass by this fleet and go home.

However, in Captain Dinesh's field of vision, a ship from the huge Spanish fleet sailed straight towards them!

What does it mean?Do you want to rob us?These regular soldiers want to make some extra money?

No way?We escaped robbery by pirates twice, but in the end we were robbed by the regular Spanish navy!Is this still reasonable?
However, even if he wanted to escape at this time, he could no longer do so.

The Spanish fast boat came very quickly, and within ten minutes, it was on the lead ship, Captain Dinesh's main ship.

Da, a long springboard protruded from the Clippers and landed on the small merchant ship.

Then a figure came along the springboard.

It was an incomparably strong knight, wearing a set of exquisite and heavy armor, with a golden cross cast on the armor, and a two-handed sword on his back. By!
Captain Dinesh was well-informed, and recognized the identity of the person at a glance. This person was not the Spanish Navy, but a member of the Holy See's Knights Templar!It is even likely to be an elite strongman in the Knights Templar!
The Templar's attitude was not arrogant, but his tone was clearly condescending: "I am the apologist knight of the Holy Cult, and I am here to ask you a few questions on behalf of the Holy Cult."

"My lord, please speak." Captain Dinesh said humbly, not paying attention to the other party's tone.

The Templar took out a piece of drawing paper from his pocket and showed it in front of everyone: "We are looking for this ship, has any of you seen it?"

Captain Dinesh took a closer look, and saw that the painting on the paper was a black ship with no sails, oars, or even a mast.
