Reborn As a Pirate

Off the coast of Mais Island...

The Galen-type destroyer flying the Spanish flag fled eastward with billowing blue smoke and sails, like a strong old woman who staggered, but ran fast.

Lorraine looked at her dejectedly, and even more depressingly at his blood-scarred deck and the dead snake-like swaying cables on the yard, and couldn't help but spit.

Blindly taking risks will lead to retribution, and now he deeply feels the philosophy of this sentence.

The straight-line approach was smooth, and the two newly installed thirty-two-pound mortars made a good start.

The left bow gun controlled by Yacharin fired three times within seven minutes, turning from 90 degrees forward to 180 degrees sideways, three shots and two hits, and each hit opened a big hole in the destroyer opposite.

However, the two heavy damages neither endangered the waterline nor caused a martyrdom explosion. The limited fire was controlled in a small area by the skilled Spanish sailors, and the drooping sails were quickly re-strengthened, hardly affecting the fatal speed. .

On the contrary, the Spaniard's counterattack was effective.

Shooting in the same direction at about 100 meters, the Spaniards hit the Golden Deer four times with three rounds of chaotic and orderly saturation bombardment. The mainsail and the entire stern slumped, making it impossible for Lorraine to pursue him.

One hour……

Lorraine retracted the knife angrily, and asked Noah, How long has it been since the war started?

49 minutes and 16 seconds. Nuoya was as precise as ever.

Tch! Boring.

The sailors signaled, Hinchinbrook was on board from the seven o'clock direction, Nelson and Spencer jumped over the board, passed the busy sailors all the way, and walked to Lorraine together.

Is it a big loss? Nelson asked.

He was hit by a high-level shotgun, and three were killed, seven were injured, and three were seriously injured. The hull was shot three times, but there was no direct hit. It took about 20 minutes to sort out the messy cables.

Spencer gave a respectful admiration: Although I don't know much about naval warfare, President Drake has one enemy against three, and he can capture one and injure one in a short period of time. Colonel Nelson said that your combat power is worth looking forward to. It really is Sincere words.

Lorraine responded vigorously: It's just a problem with the situation on the battlefield. The Spaniards made a serious misjudgment.

The results were delivered by them. I just received the results while completing the task of luring the enemy, which is not a reflection of the strength of both sides.

Nelson nodded with a smile: The fifth-level ship did not make any mistakes when it was attacked and destroyed. The Spanish navy is an opponent worthy of our respect. On the ocean, the only enemies that can fight us are they and France.

Lorraine glanced at him angrily: You know? Give me half an hour more, and my Caribbean meeting will probably have an extra fifth-tier ship.

But your sail was knocked down.

That's because you only gave me time to take risks.

This is prejudice. Nelson opened his mouth, If God wants you to be the master of that ship, even if it only hits once, you will become her master.

That's why I never liked that God.

The fierce and short encounter soon came to an end, and no one took it seriously.

The Maïs Islands are located in the disputed waters in the British-Western control area, and both sides have fixed fleet cruises.

Skirmishes like this happen every month? It's just that few and far between are as victorious as today.

The British won? They exchanged two small ships for the Spaniards' two large ships and the flagship small ship.

The Black Goat and the Cyclops worked together to control the shattered Brig. The soldiers on board did not put up any unnecessary resistance? They simply chose to lower their flags and surrender.

Their disposition is in Kingston? Not in Port Royal.

Although it is a prisoner of the naval battle, the conflict related to the Mosquito Coast? All negotiations and decisions are within the purview of the Governor of Jamaica, that is, Major General John Darling.

Considering the cost of feeding a ship of healthy captive officers? Lorraine believes that this matter will soon reach a conclusion that satisfies all parties.

The harvest of the Drake Chamber of Commerce is naturally the Brig? The name is North San Juan. Her name comes from the mouth of the San Juan River, which sounds like a particularly festive omen.

The British also like lip gloss, so Nelson chartered the fleet to stay in the warring waters for two hours? Emergency treatment of damage on the ship? Sailors were also arranged to send it back to Port Royal for repairs in the most formal way.

During these two hours, the other ships in the fleet can't be idle. Everyone has to take back the most important assault boat at the moment. If too many small boats are lost? You have to return to the port as soon as possible to replenish.

It is also because every boat is crucial to the sea-marching operation, and the launching point of the Golden Deer is different from the battle line? Lorraine can only act alone, commanding the Golden Deer? Follow the current and go around all the way Go to the side of Little Mais Island.

A dinghy has been found? Another...

Report! The assault boat was found at two o'clock? The distance is 2.2 kilometers? The position is deep into the reef zone.

It's so troublesome...

Lorraine scratched her hair irritably, and ordered the Golden Deer to anchor. A group of sailors drove the small boat that had just been hoisted into the reef, and dragged the other boat out from the depths of the reef.

But who knows, there are more troublesome things.

The boat hit the rocks...

This kind of floating flat-bottomed boat rarely hits the rocks, and even if it hits the rocks, the consequences are completely different from those of a large boat.

Her condition is more like being lifted by the waves and then resting on a reef below the sea level. The situation is more similar to being stranded.

Stranding is not stranding, and hitting the rocks is not hitting the rocks.

The sailors boarded the small boat and checked it. They were sure that the bottom of the boat had been pierced by a sharp reef. Although it was not serious for the time being, if it was forcibly pulled away, the wound would probably expand and the entire boat would be completely scrapped.

There is only one way at the moment, diving, and using human power to carry the boat off the reef.

The sailors immediately went into the water, swam scattered around the boat to support the hull, and exerted their strength together.

Enjoying the treatment of candied haws, the assault boat creaked dissatisfiedly, shook, and quickly fell silent again.

Not enough people...

Lorraine sighed helplessly, put down the binoculars, and jumped into the sea from the freeboard like a vigorous dolphin.

Plop!

The Caribbean sea water in March is clear and warm. Lorraine opened his eyes under the water, and his transparent double lids blocked the salty color, showing the colorful underwater world in front of him.

It is actually quite deep here, the deepest part of the undulating seabed is 40 to 50 meters deep, and the misty light smudges the colorful coral reefs, spreading out a dreamy country that could never exist on land.

Here you can see the chaotic coral groves formed by intertwined small coral trees, the branches are covered with white star-shaped flowers, but it is the opposite of the plants on the land, the branches of the coral trees fixed on the rocks on the seabed are completely intact. It develops from top to bottom.

Lorraine seemed to see thin tubes that looked like thin membranes and cylinders trembling under the sea waves.

Their fresh petals with fibrous tentacles drifted with the waves, and from time to time fish with brisk bodies and swift fins came, like birds flying over the treetops.

It was a living flower, a living mimosa. Lorraine wanted to reach out to pick it, and the alarm immediately sounded in the flowers.

The snow-white petals retracted into their vermilion boxes, and the flowers disappeared before Lorraine's eyes, and the coral thicket was transformed into a great plain stone dome.

Lorraine was amused by this awakened forest, and suddenly became playful, floating on the sea and shouting loudly.

Acharin, let the boat come back, and pick up another twenty men to carry the boat!

Yacharin poked his head out from the side: Captain, what about you?

I found Neptune's beautiful garden, and when I'm free, I plan to swim in the bottom of the sea for a while.

Huh?

Lorraine dived into the water again, swinging her legs along the path where the flowers and trees merged.

Before his eyes, the coral groves were closely connected, and the branches became more and more separated, like the remains of a civilization composed of strange low buildings in a stony jungle.

He swam through a corridor-like dark corridor, and from this sloping, long corridor, he went deep into the seabed at a depth of more than 50 meters.

The sunlight has become weak here, and it shines on the natural uneven arched buildings and on the sagging ceiling arranged like crystal candlesticks and dotted with sparks, producing magical and charming power from time to time.

Among the coral clumps, Lorraine saw countless strange coral trees, sea lice-shaped corals, arthropod butterfly corals, and some clustered corals, some blue and some red, as if they were spread on limestone. seaweed.

Lorraine couldn't help but think of what Verne said about them: [These coral piles, they may be life just struggling from a slumber of insensibility, and they have not yet completely broken away from the physical properties of minerals].

Lorraine continued to travel.

After changing his breath twice, he had gone deep into the reef and was in a vast forest.

Huge mineral plants, big stone trees, combined with those sea kudzu vines and pretty wreaths of feather grass, adorned with colors and reflections.

Their tall branches penetrated into the shadow of the sea, and Lorraine swam freely under the branches.

At his feet there were tube corals, brain shells, star shells, fungus shells, and caryophyllum corals, forming a carpet of flowers in radiant hues.

There is a palm-sized star-shaped shell that looks particularly eye-catching. Its brilliance is different from the brilliance of the same kind. It seems to gather all the recognizable colors in the world, forming a gradual and distinct vortex, setting off the dark red in the middle The main pattern of near ink.

Like a sword, like a mountain, and like the capital 【Λ】in the Greek alphabet.

Lorraine's complexion couldn't help becoming weird, and he wondered to himself, could it be that the sea god here also likes an Assassin woman who has a bad temper and likes to talk to herself?

He reached out to pick the star-shaped shell out of the quartz sand and put it in his arms. This rude behavior alarmed the residents under the shell.

A red-and-white clownfish jumped up in a panic, bumped into Lorraine's fingertips clumsily, and swam away quickly.

Lorraine followed the direction it was walking to look, look, look...

Gulululululululu!

Dense pale white bubbles spewed out from Lorraine's mouth, connected into lines, gathered into smoke, and scrambled to float to the surface of the sea.

A strong sense of suffocation came over, and Lorraine stomped on the bottom of the sea, and emerged from the sea with a crash.

Here...here...

He used the fastest speed to identify the position and distance, found at least three landmarks and etched them into his mind, and then swam quickly in the direction of the Golden Deer.

Acharin! Tell those lazy guys to move faster and get the boat out! He panted, trying to calm himself, Also! Except for the most basic remaining crew members, all sailors must gather and go into the sea!

My Lord Niord, I seem to have found the sunken treasure ship!
