From Baron's Second Son to Dragon Rider

I have to admit that Ernuo Island, as the base camp of pirates, does have a hint of a military fortress just from the appearance.

Because the last time the noble coalition did not completely destroy this place, the "city wall" built by the pirates with stones and clay was relatively well preserved.

What is puzzling is that this group of pirates seems to have no concept of sneak attacks at night, or they have long forgotten the tragic experience of their lair being attacked by a coalition of nobles not long ago.

There were actually only a few people patrolling the entire city wall holding torches. The rest were either sitting around the fire chatting or finding a corner to lie down and sleep soundly.

Seeing this, Foster couldn't help but wonder how this ragtag group of people defeated the defenders of Black Feather Island and successfully killed the Baron of Black Feather Island.

Foster and Hewell successfully climbed over the city wall with their strong skills.

Note: Foster relied on the wind attribute fighting spirit to jump up to the top of the city, while Hewell climbed up completely relying on the strong body of a formal knight.

Climbing up the city wall, there are only a dozen stone huts inside the "fortress". The largest of them has several pieces of red silk hanging outside as decoration.

As if afraid that others would not know that this is where the pirate leader lives.

Foster relied on his wind-attribute fighting spirit to easily jump off the city wall and land safely without making the slightest sound.

When he looked up, he found that Heir was looking at him on the city wall with a very complicated look.

That kind of gaze was three-quarters cold, three-quarters mocking, and three-quarters careless. Oh no, cross it out.

All in all, it's a very complicated look.

Heir withdrew his envious gaze. In order not to make any noise, he could only step on the stones and slowly climb down. Fortunately, the pirates did not polish the stones when they built the "city wall", and the edges and corners were prominent. There are just too many places.

So Hewell climbed down easily.

The two of them held their breath, slowly came to the largest stone house, and looked out from the inside through the window.

(Just by opening a hole and using thick long stones to block the pressure, you can support it and open a window below.)

The structure of the stone house is very simple, and some of the well-made furniture were obviously snatched from Black Feather Island.

A bed made of stones was covered with many expensive textiles.

Lying on the bed was a middle-aged man with a slovenly beard and a woman with snow-white skin.

Foster and Hewell looked at each other, planning to sneak in while the pirate leader was sleeping and interrogate him for information about the pirates.

The two entered the room slowly, not daring to make any noise.

Foster was carefully observing whether there were any traps hidden in the dark. After a round of investigation, he found no clues about the traps. He gestured to Hewell to indicate that there were no traps in this room.

Hywell made a gesture to show that he already knew.

Then the two of them slowly walked to the edge of the bed. Foster, the leader, made a gesture, and Hewell took out the dagger he had placed next to him.

As Foster's finger turned to 1, Hewell quickly used a dagger to break the tendons of both hands of the pirate leader. The severe pain caused the pirate leader to wake up from his sleep. The leopard's eyes widened and he was about to feel pain. Exhale.

But Foster on the side directly removed the pirate leader's jaw. The pirate leader, who was suffering from double pain, could only let out a mournful "woo woo" sound, and his twitching body intuitively reflected the pain he was suffering now.

The pirate leader's violent movements naturally woke up the woman who was sleeping beside her. The woman's eyelids trembled slightly. When she opened her eyes in confusion, she realized that the scene in front of her was not good. She opened her mouth wide and prepared to scream.

Before her mouth could open much, Foster removed her jaw in the same way. The severe pain and fear of death made the woman shed tears.

But Hewell and Foster were undeterred.

Foster whispered to the two people on the bed:

"You are not allowed to scream. You will answer whatever I ask. If there is any error, I will directly touch your neck with a dagger!"

Seeing the two people on the bed nodding in fear and submission, Foster first reset the pirate leader's jaw.

Feeling that he could speak again, the pirate leader quickly showed a flattering smile.

"My lord, I'm just a little pirate. I don't know where I offended you. You have a lot of people, why don't you treat me like a fart? I swear, I and my brothers will listen. Your request."

After hearing such flattery, Foster didn't believe him at all.

"Don't talk nonsense. I ask questions and you answer them. If there is anything that dissatisfies me, you can say goodbye to this world."

At this time, the woman calmed down, and she even dared to gesture to Foster to put her chin back.

Foster was curious. After his observation, he found that this woman was just an ordinary person. How could she have the courage to order him?

But he wasn't worried that this woman would do anything bad. With his speed, he could chop off the woman's head the moment she opened her mouth.

After resetting the woman's jaw, Foster and Hewell quietly waited for the woman's next performance.

Oh, and to stop the pirate leader from yelling while he waited, Foster removed his jaw again.

The woman rubbed her chin slowly, not caring about the large amount of spring light that was leaking out. She even proudly straightened her chest and introduced herself:

"I am a member of the Black Feather Family, the daughter of Baron Sosco, Sophia Black Feather. Are you sent by the Grand Duke to rescue us?

But you came too late. I am the only one left in the entire Black Feather Family. This is because this guy coveted my beauty and planned to enjoy it for a few more days."

After saying that, Sophia's face showed a sad and painful expression.

Hawell comforted:

"I'm sorry, Miss Sophia, I deeply sympathize and regret the experience of the Black Feather Family. We are knights sent by the Grand Duke to investigate what happened.

Do you know the cause and effect of the Black Feather Island tragedy? If you know, please let us know so that we can arrange troops to eliminate the pirates."

Hawell's face showed sympathy and pity involuntarily, which made Sophia, who was plundered and humiliated, have a great favor for him.

"I know everything. This guy often uses this incident to insult me ​​and make fun of my family. I know the whole thing clearly, and I have also seen most of the pirates involved in this incident."

Sophia slowly recounted the beginning and end of the Black Feather Island incident.

It turned out that since the last time the noble coalition destroyed the pirates' nest, those stragglers have been wandering in the nearby waters. The leader of those stragglers at that time was the man who was lying on the bed like a dead dog.

They were frightened by the might of the noble coalition, and they didn't even dare to go back to the Three Daughters Islands, so they could only wander on the sea.

But one day they met a strange team.

They spoke a very strange language, and their clothes and weapons and equipment didn't look like those of the Golden Grand Duchy or the Emerald Kingdom.

Luckily, there was a guy who knew the common language among the foreigners on the opposite side, and they decided to cooperate after getting to know each other.

It turned out that the group of people were natives from a medium-sized island east of the Three Daughters Islands. They called themselves the Children of the Sea. They went out to sea to explore new islands. After several months of long journey, they finally arrived at the waters near the Three Daughters Islands.

When the pirate leader heard that the distance was so far, he gave up the idea of ​​going to that place.

But the group of "Children of the Sea" were very interested in the Three Daughters Islands.

So after the Children of the Sea showed their powerful strength, the pirate leader had no choice but to take them back to the Three Daughters Islands.

Maybe the customs of that group of guys were different. They didn't like to live in stone rooms, but liked to live in the open air on the shore.

So the Children of the Sea chose Xiaomei Island as their place to stay.

This went on for a while until the group of Children of the Sea took the initiative to come to the door and seek help from the pirates.
