Chapter 664: Retreat (II)


"Help me move those empty wine barrels and find some ropes."

With just one sentence, Letnais understood Lorne's plan.

While others were still struggling, the two guys secretly began to prepare escape tools.

Unfortunately, Lorne and Letnais were not the only ones present who were also thinking about escaping.

The other nobles without force immediately woke up when they saw their actions.

Instead of waiting for the Stuart family to defeat the pirates, it would be more practical to save themselves.

They have heard about the pirates' ways in the wasteland, and they don't want to become prisoners of pirates.

One or two, they competed for the wine barrel in the same manner.

Such a big move naturally attracted Athena's attention.

"What are you doing?"

The eldest lady's body was stained with a lot of blood, but looking at Athena's spirit, Lorne realized that it was all the girl's achievements.

In order not to become Athena's next target, Baron Fast naturally continued to pretend to be ill.

He was dizzy and looked like a patient who had not recovered from a serious illness.

Of course, escape could not be planned by a patient.

"This is not offshore.

Do you landlubbers think it will be safer to jump down here?

Put down these useless things and pick up weapons.

As long as we wait until dawn, we will be able to repel the pirates."

Miss Stuart said it categorically, but ordinary nobles are afraid of death.

Let them take up arms and fight the pirates, then they are willing to wait for Castev's promise.

"Stuart Paladin, why don't we try to negotiate with the pirates.

Try to delay as much time as possible, and maybe no one will be hurt."

Castev's purpose was very obvious.

The guy who spoke was polite, but he asked Athena to buy them time.

Thinking of the name Paladin, Athena felt that the guy in front of her was even more disgusting than Lorne.

After crushing the empty wine barrel they prepared with one foot, Athena's attitude was very obvious, that is, she would resist to the end.

"Whoever wants to jump, just jump.

In such a dark night, no one will come to save you anyway.

But there are a lot of sharks down there.

If you don't want to feed the fish, just pick up a weapon."

We are nobles of the empire and cannot compromise with pirates."

If Castev had not made such a request, Athena might have agreed to the negotiation.

Unfortunately, just like Athena would not make peace with Lorne, the stubborn girl would not bow to a pirate who was spying on her even if she died.

"And you, don't think you can leave.

Stay here honestly.

If I find out that you dare to cause trouble, I will destroy you now."

Because he had to fight against the pirates, Lorne's protective umbrella Arnold fought on the front line with his escort.

Unprotected and powerless, Baron Fast was really at the mercy of Miss Stuart, but he couldn't figure out why Athena would step on him for no reason when he was already in such a bad state.

Looking at the determined look in the girl's eyes, Lorne suddenly thought of a possibility.

Normal pirate attacks are usually for gold coins.

If Athena didn't know Castev's purpose, surrendering in exchange for life would not be unacceptable to the girl.

The eldest lady of the Stuart family was not afraid that pirates would dare to harm her crazily, but after hearing Castev's declaration, Athena was obviously determined.

If the stairs were lost, the girl would definitely kill herself to remain innocent.

In that case, Lorne, who had the same fate as Athena, would naturally be buried with her.

Of course, the greater possibility is that Athena will kill him before the stairs are lost.

But no matter what, if there is no accident, Miss Stuart will definitely die.

Even if Lorne successfully escapes, Baron Fast's final outcome will not change in any way.

The dizzy Lorne was so frightened by his guess that he was sweating profusely.

He didn't want to die.

It could be seen from the Baron's behavior that he planned to run away when he saw the situation was not good that he didn't want to be buried with Athena.

It was just seasickness that made his thinking a little slow, and now he thought of his relationship with Athena.

The Baron immediately came to his senses.

Even if he wanted to escape, he should, oh no, must take Athena with him.

Damn Kastev

After secretly cursing Castev for not acting according to the script and revealing his purpose, the Pirate King had lost the opportunity to forcefully have sex with Athena.

What's even more annoying is that he actually has to find a way to save Miss Stuart, which is far from his original intention.

Seeing that Athena wanted to rejoin the battle group after giving him a warning, and realizing that Athena's safety was related to his own life, the Baron immediately stopped her.

"etc" It's time to wait, so there's no time to wait.

Accustomed to forcing all problems on Lorne, Athena raised her foot and wanted to give Lorne a hard blow.

The angry Miss Stuart would not show mercy.

Baron Fast, who had been kicked many times since he went to sea, certainly did not want to be beaten again.

In desperation, he told Athena: "I have a way to delay time."

Baron Fast, who was lying on the ground like a plague chicken, had a way of delaying the pirates.

This was probably the funniest joke Athena had ever heard.

Baron Fast, who couldn't even stand up, was really unconvincing.

But Lorne said: "I know Castoff.

I drank with him when we were in Mermaid.

If it just delays time, I think I can do it."

It's not a secret that Lorne and Castev drank at the Mermaid, even Athena heard Wendell mention it.

But what does this mean?

Why is Lorne so confident in delaying time?

Could it be that the pirates were originally attracted by Baron Fast?

Athena guessed the fact correctly, but looking at Baron Fast's embarrassed appearance and thinking about the concentric rings around his neck, she immediately rejected this possibility.

Even she couldn't get the thing off her neck, and she didn't believe that Lorne could be exempted from the punishment of the concentric ring.

It's a pity that Athena didn't know Lorne's original purpose, otherwise the girl wouldn't have cared about the concentric rings.

It would have been easy to just stab Baron Fast to death with a sword.

Seeing another Stuart knight fall to the pirates' crazy attack, Athena didn't trust Lorne, but she didn't mind letting Baron Fast give it a try.

Anyway, Lorne is dressed like a noble, and nobles represent gold coins.

No matter how crazy Castev is, he will not be able to get away with gold coins.

After getting Athena's consent, Baron Fast, who was pushed to the shelf, couldn't help but suppress his discomfort and shouted loudly: "Mr.

Explorer, it's me, I'm your little brother.

Please let your men stop attacking first.

I have something to say to you":
