48 Hours a Day

Chapter 223 Rage

“Are we safe now? ”

After two rounds of heavy artillery fire close by, the Cold Raven miraculously did not sink, but crashed out of the harbour.

The red-haired girl pulled out the pieces of wood stuck in her shoulder and asked.

Zhang Heng was unable to move when the armed boat across the street opened fire before him. Annie was decisively blocked from him. Although the two men were fortunate not to have been hit by the shell, the splattering damage caused by the shell landing on the deck was actually the most dangerous for the people on the boat, and this part of the damage was essentially borne by the red-haired girl.

Not just the wounds on her shoulders, Annie's arms, calves and cheeks all had different degrees of scratches, but the red-haired girl stood still during that time.

Zhang Heng did not express his gratitude, and there was no longer a need for verbal gratitude for the relationship between the two. He took off his clothes and bandaged the latter and opened his mouth.

“I don't think so, if they don't have an advantage in firepower, they'll probably just let us go, but they won't be able to use so many boats against those people on the beach right now, so they'll definitely come after us. ”

Zhang Heng's voice just fell, and the shadow of two armed ships appeared in the smoke behind him.

They should have just turned around and pulled a distance from the Cold Raven, but soon they came out of the smoke.

If, in normal times, Zhang Heng is not worried about the pursuit of soldiers behind him, with the performance and fire of the Cold Raven, even one enemy and two have not tried to lose their chances, let alone can easily evacuate at an excellent speed.

But now the condition of the Cold Raven is at its worst, the ship is understaffed, there are hardly any gunmen on board, at least three sides of the sail are damaged, the hull is leaking heavily, and the water level has risen by at least three feet compared to the previous level, reaching the line of alert.

In this case, let's not talk about resisting the pursuit of soldiers behind us, even if we can sail to Nassau.

That's why Divrena was so desperate before, even if the Cold Crow could break through the Navy's layers of blockade, it wouldn't even get far in its current state.

He couldn't see where the only chance was.

But since Zhang Heng was going to bet on this, of course, there was no way he was going to be prepared for anything. He temporarily handed the rudder to Annie, borrowed the latter's dagger, and then came to the mast. When he was on the Sea Lion, his teacher worked from Roscoe for quite a while on the old man's hands, and he was not new to climbing masts and other things.

Though the captain had done almost no similar work, he was not completely unwieldy. He bit the dagger with his teeth, climbed to the top of the mast at the fastest speed, and saw the scratched area above, where an ancient Celtic name had been engraved.

Zhang Heng removed the dagger from his mouth. The name had been drawn by him before, but now he has re-engraved it.

In the original plan, Zhang Heng intended to communicate with the so-called Celtic Ancient God after getting the wooden box of the tule tree, which was also the safest approach, but now he has no other choice.

Zhang Heng carried a number of game props that could really help him in this situation only with the unidentified shell.

However, nothing special had happened when he had finished carving the last one, when the two armed boats had dramatically reduced the distance from the Cold Raven and the gunmen on board were on standby.

There was not much time left for Zhang Heng. He did not think that the Celtic ancient god named Betty had just abandoned him at this time. In fact, Zhang Heng had always suspected that the target of the other party on the previous ghost ship was not Seth, but him as captain.

Only then was Annie's sudden appearance interrupted. The Celtic god named Betty had to give up Seth, who had chosen the other side, but her goal remained the same. She instructed Seth to steal the three notes. In fact, the motive was not pure, but to intentionally expose Seth to Zhang Heng, in order to attract his attention.

But what Zhang Heng doesn't understand is why after he got the shell, the Celtic god named Betty never came to him again.

Zhang Heng quickly reviewed the conversation he had had with Seth. He remembered the abrupt storm he had encountered when returning to Nassau, and the anger Seth had said he needed to manage the storm.

Zhang Heng frowned, perhaps because his parents had been away, he belonged to the more mature group of people, compared with his peers from childhood to big emotions were relatively stable.

Naturally there are times when he is angry, but when he realizes that anger does not solve the problem, he rarely feels angry about why.

When Wei Jiangyang first worked part-time as a tutor and was cheated money, everyone drank alcohol with him to relieve boredom. He drank too much for Zhang Hengdao. "Zhang Heng, I think the most powerful thing about you is that you always seem to be able to see this cruel world, but you won't be disappointed in it. How did you do it? It's like being a bystander... you people, everything's fine, it's just sometimes too calm, it's a little boring. ”

Zhang Heng also knows that sometimes the SAN drops slowly, but he never thought this would become his problem one day.

Looking back at his life, he found that there seemed to be nothing particularly bitter and furious about him.

This is a little embarrassing.

Because, according to his assumptions, summoning a storm requires not only anger, but only constant anger can sustain the storm, like Seth's anger came and went quickly before, so the storm was brief.

And if he wants to get rid of the two armed ships behind him, he needs at least a storm that lasts half an hour.

Zhang Heng could only find another way. He took a deep breath and closed his eyes.

Half a minute later, the bows of those two armed boats were approaching the stern of the Cold Raven, when a thick lightning broke through the night sky.

The lightning happened to fall on the mast of one of the armed vessels, and although no one was near the mast, the crew was frightened by the scene.

However, this is only the beginning, immediately followed by the sound of thunder rolling from the sky, while lightning became more and more dense, like a purple grid, a rather calm sea surface suddenly stormy, one of the armed boats, obviously approaching the Cold Crow, ordered by the captain to prepare to fire, was hit by a giant wave on the boat's side, lifting all the gunmen above it.
