Chapter 138. Pinas Revolution (6)
Dozens of boats were roaming the dark night sea.
They were the boats carrying Carl’s party and a newly formed native fighting force.
In the foremost boat were Carl, Tira, Hanson and Old Man Crete, and behind them were the native troops.
Since it was a group led by a few militias mixed together, it was not long after they were recruited, but their discipline was quite alive.
“The strategy should work, Carl.”
“It will be.”
In response to Crete’s question, Carl spoke confidently.
“Recently, the pirates’ complaints against the militia are high, and the only thing to rely on in the night sea is the moonlight. It will definitely get caught.”
“You should hope so. How long until Hapy Island?”
“We are almost there. It’s starting to show.”
Harpy Island, which is adjacent to Rodim Island, which Karl visited last time.
Several large ships were moving away into the open sea in the distance.
Carl saw it and said.
“Looks like Meisa and Jillian succeeded in luring them. Most of the pirate ships are heading towards the ruined island. It will be around seven or eight hundred.”
“Ahh… … Please, Meisa and the militia members should come back safely.”
Tira put her hands together and said a short prayer.

Just then, a pirate from the coastal spire of Harpy Island began waving his torch vigorously.
“Looks like they’ve found us, let’s get ready.”
Carl moved away and gave a hand signal to the boat behind him.
Carl took off his priestly clothes and dressed up like a pirate.
“Hanson, move forward.”
“yes.”
As Hanson rowed vigorously, the boat moved forward.
On the shoreline, more than ten small boats with pirates were cutting through the current.
“there! stop! Where are they coming from in the middle of the night?!”
When Carl’s boat and the pirates’ lead boat got close enough to recognize each other’s faces.
Carl pointed to the back and shouted.
“Help me! help us! The militia is after us!”
Tira and Hanson, whose faces might have been known, quickly fell flat on the bottom of the boat.
“U. militia?!”
“okay! Can’t you see it over there?”
Carl shouted, changing his voice slightly.
Soon, as promised, arrows began to fly from behind.
It was clear that Carl was aiming for the boat, but it was an ambiguous attack that did not hit.
But in the middle of the night, especially in the middle of the sea, it was difficult to discern the authenticity of the attack.
“You shoot arrows! sh*t! Come on, fight back! We are on our way back from our reconnaissance towards the island of inspiration from Mediel!”
“this! You were a colleague! Bring out all the crossbows! Let the boat ahead go through!”
“I’m a member of the pirate team! Help!”
The boat Carl and the others were on passed smoothly between the boats of the pirates.
They firmly believed that Carl was the same pirate.
Naturally, when I passed halfway between the boats they rode on.
Carl picked up the rope he had prepared earlier.
There was a round knot at the end of the rope, like a rope used to catch fleeing animals.
swish-!
“What?!”
with a plop!
Carl threw a rope in a subtle way and began to drown the pirates who showed behind him one by one.
Then, the pirates’ boats, which hit the enemy from the front and rear, fell into chaos in an instant.
“What, what?! Aren’t those guys on the same side?!”
“this! I don’t know!”
“The militia is coming from the front!”
To-du-du-du-!
Soon after, the boats of the militia and pirates collided and a sea battle ensued.
Carl, who had already drowned more than five pirates, threw the rope.
“We are going to Harpy Island. row.”
“Yes, chief.”
Hanson rowed vigorously again.
Thanks to that, Carl and his friends got to the shoreline right away.
Carl ran straight into the jungle.
He was leaving to attack the bodyguards called ‘Harpy’s Wings’.
“Hanson, take good care of Miss Tira.”
“I will.”
“Heul heul, then shall we begin?”
Creta with a sword drawn and Hanson with a shield.
The two glared at the pirates running from the edge of the shoreline.
***
Tadadat, tadadat-!
It was in the night jungle, but there was nothing to be afraid of.
Thanks to the application of divine power, the sword could see far in the dark.
It took a long time to run through the jungle.
In the distance, there was a commotion and the sound of knife strikes.
From nob le mt l dot com
Judging from the noise, it seemed that the villagers and militia had safely landed on the shore.
He probably joined Hanson and his party fighting on the shore.
‘It’s going as planned.’
Carl kept running.
Carl’s heart, already half-silver, thanks to the mysterious coral reef he ate in Derdrang.
The enormous divine power emitted from the heart was sent to the feet and legs.
As I pushed the ground vigorously, the surrounding scenery swept by in an instant.
The animals and small monsters sleeping in the bush were startled and ran away.
“sorry.”
Carl smiled as he watched the fawn run away with his eyes wide open.
As Drenek confessed, he followed the trail and tracked down the human tracks.
Soon after, I felt the burning smell of the knife.
‘It’s close.’
A presence felt from beyond the bush.
There were ten people in all.
They were emitting a prayer that was definitely different from the ragtag pirates.
In particular, a bloody smell that could not be erased no matter how much I washed it came out of their quarters.
‘It’s like the spirit of barbarians.’
A world of barbarians that exists beyond the borders of the Empire.
They rule the tribe by force alone.
The stronger one became the chief, and he controlled all the food and women of the tribe.
The opportunity to challenge the chieftain is open at any time, and the chieftain always puts his weapon in front of his tent.
On that weapon, clots of blood from defeated challengers so far lingered, giving off a disgusting stench.
Carl was now feeling the smell he had experienced on the northern battlefield before.
‘They said they strengthened their bodies with special herbs, but they were actually barbarian mercenaries brought from outside the empire.’
Squeak.
Carl made his way through the bush.
Then he saw several wooden huts built in clearings among the bushes, and savages making fires and roasting meat among them.
They stared at the knife.
“Are you all the puppies called ‘Harpy’s Wings’?”
“… … .”
Barbarians with no answers.
One of them threw a spear with great speed.
swish-!
Carl lightly turned his head and dodged.
The blown spear was lodged in the middle of a large tree, dropping numerous leaves.
I just threw it lightly from a sitting position, but it was formidable.
‘Drenek wasn’t bluffing.’
food.
As the sword dodged the spear, the savage’s mouth caught a laugh.
They didn’t seem to know how to speak the language of the Empire.
But it didn’t matter.
“Looking at the smell of blood on the weapon, it must have killed quite a few people. Those who aren’t even believers in the sun god dare to commit murder in the sun god’s territory… … .”
Carl’s gaze moved to the wolf-shaped pendants around their necks.
A warrior god believed by the northern barbarians.
They believed that a warrior god would appear in the form of a wolf and lead them to the warrior’s hall when they died.
‘Wolf Bridge.’
A sword was carried on the waist and a large sword was carried on the back.
He pulled out the steel sword from his waist.
“I will pay for the sins you committed in the Pinas Islands.”
The savages also grabbed their weapons.
The savage group of men and women were armed with all sorts of grotesque weapons.
It was a tricky weapon that was difficult for imperial soldiers to deal with.
but.
‘It’s been a while, those weapons.’
Carl had faced those weapons countless times before.
Besides, I’ve fought savage skeletons raised by the Lich King.
Death was rampant everywhere in the empire.
That meant that the Lich King’s route of attack was also across the Empire.
“Come, sons and daughters of the Wolf Cult.”
aaa!
Barbarians howl like beasts and rush at you.
War-Cry.
It was a distinctive cry called the battle roar.
The savage troops raised their morale with such shouts and burned their fighting spirit towards the enemy.
Novice soldiers with weak minds even urinated on the war-cry of the savages.
Of course, it was of no use to Carl.
Tadat-!
The sword gently dodged the attack of the large ax spear.
With a leisurely motion, he thrust his sword into the barbarian’s abdomen.
However, the black savage could not reach it.
Kkang-!
It wasn’t that Carl lacked skill.
They had excellent passing skills that they must have guessed dozens or hundreds of times.
When the leading warrior launched the first attack with all his might, the savage warriors following his defenseless rear defended it.
Thanks to that, the knife’s attacks were undone several times.
“Hoo.”
A savage’s fighting method that he has not experienced in a long time.
Carl was intrigued.
“Then let’s relax a bit.”
You might be able to use divine power.
However, Henry Morgan and the ax that radiates his ominous energy are not clearly checked.
It was good to save the divine power as much as possible.
furthermore.
“It’s the first time I’ve had a battle like this since I came back!”
After being reincarnated with the power of the sun god.
Although they had fought many great battles, they had never faced a group so skilled in pincer attacks.
For example, an organized and meticulous battle method.
Of course, it’s not that the savages deliberately matched up and studied each other’s weapons.
They just knew each other naturally as they crossed the battlefield risking their lives together.
That’s why it was more powerful.
kang! kang! kang!
The sword struck ten brutal weapons like magic.
Compared to the ignorant muscular bodies of savages, Carl’s body was too slim.
They looked like they would fall down any minute, but when they overpowered them with superior strength and skill than themselves, the savages’ faces were clearly embarrassed.
“It’s the bottom!”
Push!
Soon after, the front of the thigh of one of the savages was sliced off.
Kut! As he knelt down with a groan, two savage women stood in front of him holding weapons.
The knife that was about to finish it flipped over and soared into the air.
Then, a broad-bladed sword, a weapon called a sword in the Orient, swept past the place where the sword had stood.
Tuduk.
When the knife is back on the ground.
Surprisingly, the head of the savage wielding the sword was rolling on the floor.
“… … !!!”
The savage’s eyes widened as if they were going to pop out.
“Oh ahhhhh!”
Frenzied by the death of their comrades, the warriors attacked with their swords.
The one holding an ax in each hand, the one wielding a flail attached to the tip of a spearhead, the one using a large shield and a long sword, and so on.
All kinds of weapons threatened the sword, but rather, it was the barbarians who were eliminated one by one.
Push!
“Cheukhak!”
Suddenly, there are only three savages left.
The knife wiped the blood from the blade.
“Certainly, if it were another militia, you wouldn’t have won. The fighting power of each one is great, but the pincer attack is fierce. If we fight as a group, ten of you will be able to take on hundreds.”
The savages who tried to eat the sword while bursting into war-cry.
For the first time in their lives, they were feeling fear.
