Even though the castle's treasure vault was so sturdy that even demons would feel despair, Scarface Harry drank a legendary magic potion, and used the simplest and crudest method to open the door to the treasure vault. This was also the reason why Sheyan felt the entire castle tremble.
At this moment, they were not far from the castle's main entrance, they could even see the flickering flames outside. The pirates were also excited. But Sheyan suddenly felt an indescribable sense of danger, that feeling was like his entire body was submerged in the arctic sea. At this moment, Sheyan's peripheral vision once again caught sight of the castle wall by the side. This wall was still engraved with a large amount of decorative patterns, and the newly engraved patterns were even more numerous than before. Sheyan even used his hand to touch the pattern, but what he felt was not the icy cold sensation, but a kind of warmth.
A warmth that was close to human body temperature.
"Don't tell me the purpose of those guards' bloodletting is … …"
Sheyan's heart surged with an intense sense of danger, his eyes flickered as he turned to look at Scarface Harry at the back of the group. The beads of perspiration on this muscular man's bald head glistened under the torchlight. It had already been half an hour since he did any vigorous exercise, why was there so much perspiration on his head? Sheyan's lips curled into a cold sneer, he halted his steps and shouted.
"Listen to me! If you still wish to enjoy the rum, the sun, the beach and women, you can't walk any further. “
The group of pirates looked at him like he was an idiot.
Sigma, the pirate who followed Harry, used a mocking tone and said.
"You mean to say that we should turn around and walk away, before respectfully returning Lord Fokke's treasures back to where they belong? “
Sheyan hurriedly replied.
"There's a huge danger ahead, believe me, I can feel it. The safest way for us to leave this castle is not from the stairs, but from the air. Even though the second floor of the castle is very high, I think jumping down from there will only result in some injuries to our calves and ankles. "
Sigma had already become Scarface Harry's representative, he immediately pointed out.
"Then we'll place Little Mr Fokke's treasures here?"
Sheyan very seriously replied.
"Everyone can try their best to carry some on their bodies and then throw the boxes out of the window."
"Your suggestion will reduce our loot by at least 50%." Sigma sneered and took out a piece of porcelain from the chest beside him, "Look at this beautiful China porcelain! It was as smooth as a baby's skin. Caressing it felt like caressing the breasts of a 16 year old virgin ….. It would be worth 50 thousand pounds to any British aristocrat, but even if it fell from half a foot high, it would shatter into pieces and become worthless! “
At this moment, Scarface Harry lightly coughed. It wasn't because his throat was itchy, but because he wanted to attract everyone's attention to himself.
"Let's move forward … No matter if it's God or Devil in our way, they will all be trampled under our feet! “
"Very good, indeed he rejected me for the sake of establishing his prestige."
Sheyan sighed softly in his heart, but on the surface, he stood still. He raised his hand helplessly, as though he wanted to say something. Instead, the anxious pirates rushed past him one after another. Even that servant Charlie rushed out in high spirits. Fortunately, after running for a dozen metres, he recalled his master, Sheyan, and returned to look for him. At this moment, Sheyan appeared exceptionally powerless and lonely. He was like a lonely reef towering in the middle of a tidal wave. But people often forget, the tide will recede very quickly, but the reef will stand tall for thousands of years!
As the pirates gazed at the radiance emanating from the castle gates, their eyes were brimming with uncontrollable hope and fanaticism. After staying in this damned castle of terror for too long, they couldn't wait to bathe in the familiar and intimate sea breeze. Although they were exhausted, they still hastened their footsteps. Nobody dared to glance at Sheyan who was standing at the back of the stairs. Nobody expected, they had already fallen into a huge trap.
Sheyan faintly shook his head, retreating a few steps. His perceptive sense was already warning him. In reality, Sheyan had always possessed a strong analytical ability and meticulous thinking since young. If not, he wouldn't have been able to climb up to the position of a second officer at the age of 17 or 18.
However, this kind of powerful layout ability was not omnipotent. Its biggest weakness was that it required sufficient thinking time and sufficient relevant information! In the present world, Uncle Dasi's incident could be said to be a sudden and unexpected incident. How much time did Sheyan have to prepare?
According to Sheyan's capabilities at that time, was it possible to set up a scheme to kill Huashan Fei? Yes! But at the very least, he had to be given a year to prepare everything! Putting it bluntly, under such circumstances, even the cleverest housewife couldn't cook without rice, that was the only reasonable explanation.
After entering the Terminator world, Sheyan had to face all kinds of challenges for the first time. This included the unfamiliar feeling of entering the space, familiarizing oneself with the various rules of the space, and familiarizing oneself with the power he possessed. He was a man and not a god. If he could still set up a scheme in such an environment, then the only outcome would be to trap himself!
Only in this world, did Sheyan's innate outstanding ability begin to display itself. Firstly, he had sufficient time, and he was relatively familiar with the Caribbean Sea world. Furthermore, he had grasped sufficient information in various aspects. This information included but wasn't limited to the laws of the world, the background of the world, information obtained from his insight etc. It could be said that due to various factors, he was able to display his capabilities. But now that he thought about it, his scheme still had some loopholes. Fortunately, it seemed like the goddess of luck favored him this time. That was why his scheme wasn't destroyed, but was able to continue on.
Just as the pirates started to approach the main door, a subtle yet peculiar sound suddenly permeated through the air. This sound was like the murmuring of a stream that was about to stop flowing, or like the tiny fragments of mulberry leaves being nibbled away. Within the darkness, something was faintly unfolding. Scarface Harry's eyebrows twitched as he immediately halted his footsteps. However, the massive stone flooring in front of the castle gate had already flipped upwards, like a towering wall towering in front of everyone!
Two men were nailed to the stone slab with huge iron nails. The faces of these two men were rather familiar to all the pirates! They were the first batch of navigator, Xiaer, and Blind Matt who was used to restrain Sheyan. Currently, both of them were naked and nailed onto the massive black stone floor. No one knew if they were dead or alive, their exposed skin had an indescribable paleness, as though all their blood had been drained dry.
Instantly, the majority of the pirates were alarmed, some started shouting loudly, some attempted to rescue them, while some retreated after recalling Sheyan's words. The originally orderly formation was now in a mess. While the pirates were in a state of confusion and fear, the air once again reverberated with a soft "Peng" sound! This sound was as faint as a moan in a bustling city. If one didn't listen carefully, one wouldn't be able to detect its existence. But once it was detected, it was already within reach!
That was the sound of an arrow piercing through the air!
Based on Sheyan's visual estimation, the initial speed of the arrow was at least 100 m/s. It was equivalent to a bolt falling from 60 storeys, or a stone hurling towards a car traveling at 200 km/h! Such a speed would produce an astonishing destructive force. Within a 100 metre radius, even an ordinary thumb thick plate would be unable to withstand such a formidable might. What's more, these exhausted pirates?
Sharp piercing sounds wantonly reverberated through the air. These arrows spun rapidly in the air, with a green phosphorescence trailing behind them. Judging from their length and design, these should be the popular horn iron arrows. These arrows were made from horn wood, with a ratio of 3 iron to 1 nickel. It was the standard equipment of England's longbowmen. All around the castle walls were tiny inconspicuous holes. Even during the day, if one didn't pay attention, it would be hard to notice. The arrows were shot out from these holes, and the remaining holes were like gouged out eyes staring venomously at everything.
The pirates standing in the middle of the hall were like harvested wheat, falling down one after another. At this critical juncture of life and death, no one dared to conceal their strength. Obviously, the strength of the people around Scarface Harry was much stronger than the rest.
Especially the pirate Sigma who previously doubted Sheyan, at this moment, he displayed an astonishing prowess. His first reaction was to pull out a broadsword from his waist. His broadsword glowed with a blue glow, and with lightning speed, he slashed out thrice. Three arrows were chopped away, and he then used his left hand to pull out a musket from his waist, blasting away two arrows aimed at Scarface Harry.
But his outstanding performance had also attracted the attention of his enemies hidden in the shadows!
Before the light blue smoke dispersed, the decorative patterns on the castle walls suddenly flashed. At this moment, Sheyan felt an immense sense of danger. The hairs on the back of his hand stood erect, and he immediately hid behind a cover! At the same time, from a hole on the castle walls, an incomparably mournful ray of light shot out!
