Reborn As a Pirate

Chapter 55: The leak happened...

   Under Noah's gentle pressure, Lorraine felt like he had entered a peaceful harbor.

   Half asleep and half awake, he suddenly heard that the hatch was slammed.

  咚咚咚咚!

  Noya jumped far away like frightened white ears. Lorraine suddenly lost support, waved his hand and smashed into the heavy woven carpet embarrassingly. Although it didn't hurt, he was also very scared.

   He grinned and got up, smiled apologetically at Noya, opened the hatch, and saw Pierce.

"What's wrong?"

   "Brother, there is a large fog area at ten o'clock. The distance is about fifteen kilometers. We may pass through from the side."

   "Fog area?"

   A very strange word, Lorraine couldn't help but frowned and looked at the sky.

   The sky is fine, the big waves on the sea are caused by trade winds, and have nothing to do with heavy rain and thunder. How can this situation be encountered in a foggy area...

   "Let Henna go around, this time..."

   "Captain!"

   Lorraine's command hasn't been finished yet, Karen ran over in a hurry, with unrelenting white ears on his head, and he couldn't pull it off.

   "Captain, the bottom tank is leaking! We have been filling water for too long, and the glue on the sealing plate has begun to fall off. There is basically no possibility of salvation!"

   "The bottom tank is leaking?" Lorraine's expression changed drastically, "One, or..."

   "Three!"

There are six watertight cabins on each side of the    Butterfly Flower, plus the bow and stern, for a total of fourteen.

   There were four water injections before, and the draught of the ship has been pressed to the limit. If there are three more...no! It's four!

   The ship will sink!

   Lorraine took a deep breath, and his empty brain turned quickly again.

   The sinking of the ship is the worst possible, but the cabin itself is not damaged, and there is enough sailor drainage on the ship, the possibility of a direct sinking is very small.

   But the three cabins are filled with water, which will definitely slow down the speed of the Pansy. It will be soon after the Reindeer will catch up. In the vast ocean, they have no chance to get out!

  The only way to survive...

   Lorraine gritted his teeth: "I'm going to steer the helm, Karen is sailing, Pierce and Noah direct the sailors to drain, and Henna will immediately go up to the observation deck... and Acharin, call him up!"

   "Captain, you want to..."

   "We...into the foggy area!"

   into the fog!

   is fifteen kilometers apart, and it only takes one hour at the current speed of the butterfly flower. Even if the speed loss caused by cutting wind and water leakage is included, the whole process will not exceed one and a half hours.

   Lorraine boarded the rudder position under the crowd, and took the handwheel from Hina.

   The two of them looked at each other, pursing their lips, and nodding solemnly to each other.

   "Left full rudder, half sail, cut wind!" Lorraine shouted to the sailors on the deck, "Butterfly, target, fog area!"

  ……

   After chasing and escaping, the speed of the Pansy gradually decreased, and the Reindeer circled from behind to the side, chasing violently behind the right rear of Lorraine.

   This is the news from Henna on the observation deck.

   Judging from the response of the Reindeer, Velen obviously also discovered the existence of the fog area, and also saw through Lorraine's attempt.

   lucky, or unfortunate...

   The fog area is not at twelve o'clock, but at ten o'clock.

   With a cut angle of nearly 30 degrees, the reindeer with full sails can't cut the wind as smartly as the pansy. After losing the huge sail on the stern, all she could do was to fold the line continuously to maintain the speed of the pursuit in this way.

   This undoubtedly greatly increased the distance traveled by the Reindeer, and under the condition that the enemy was fast and we were slow, it barely maintained the balance of speed on both sides.

   There was a mess on the deck of the Butterfly Flower.

   The wind is high, the waves are sturdy, and in an unstable wind-cutting environment. The sailors stand in long rows on the deck, and everyone has a rope to fix their body around their waists.

   They sent a bucket of water up from the bottom compartment, poured it into the sea, and passed the bucket back again, starting to make a circle.

   Grab time, speed, load, and wind!

   You need to grab everything with your own hands, and every small advantage is used to offset your own increasingly distinct disadvantages!

   I saw the foggy area!

   While seeing the foggy area, there was an exclamation from the deck: "Destroyer!"

   The huge body of the Reindeer suddenly jumped out of the sea horizon, smashed the waves with a bang, and rushed toward the side of the Pansy from two kilometers away!

   "Acharin! Boom her sail!"

   Lorraine roared and suddenly filled the rudder. Acharin gained the elevation angle, and the six-pounder gun and the reindeer's bow gun fired at the same time!

   Boom boom boom boom!

   Huge water splashes soared into the sky, blooming on both sides of the ships on both sides, and the salty sea water poured over Lorraine's face. Lorrain wiped his face and pulled the bow back to the course.

   "The distance from the fog area is 1.7, the distance from the reindeer is 1.3, Lorraine, she will stop us!" Hina shouted from the observation deck.

   "She can't stop it!" Lorraine had a grim face, "Full sail, turn around! Acharin, go to the gun!"

   Karen ran to raise the sail himself, and Acharin climbed and got into the stern compartment. The horizontal sail rose again, and Lorraine cut the wind and pulled the bow back to the wind direction. The whole ship slammed and became back and forth with the reindeer again.

  The distance between the two sides is already less than one kilometer. In the vast sea, this distance is almost the same as a rear-end collision!

   The reindeer's ship bow roared again, and one of them rubbed the hull of the ship, ploughing out debris in the sky.

   The butterfly flower hit the waves, the bow was high, and then, it fell!

   "Acharin!"

   "Sophie Labride, bless me!"

   Boom!

   The stern of the ship was raised high with only one cannon sound, and Acharin fired a chain bullet, then abandoned the artillery and lay down on the porthole.

   The round iron bullet drew a high arc and opened in the air. An iron chain and two hemispheres flew to the top of the Reindeer like a straight dumbbell and hung on the dense sails on the bow.

   It was spinning round and round on the sails, and the red-burning iron chain burned two cables in just one night.

   collapse! collapse!

Acharin knew that this was his own auditory hallucination, but he just heard the singing~www.wuxiamtl.com~The bow sail of the Reindeer smashed down, and the huge upper sail instantly unloaded its force and collapsed. Half sail.

   "Vivela!"

In the cheers of Yacharin, the Reindeer slowed down like a brake. Before adjusting the hull, the broken Pansy returned to the cutting line, swaying, and plunged into the monster as if entrenched. The thick fog on the sea disappeared in a blink of an eye.

   Weilun stared at the disappearing ship shadow blankly.

"I failed?"

   The navigator reminded him in shock: "Admiral, this location is exactly on the three fulcrums of an equilateral triangle with Ireland and Iceland. According to the ancient navigator legend..."

"I've heard that legend." Velen interrupted the navigator coldly. "The Viscount gave "The Mirror of the Sailor" as a gift to every admiral of the Chamber of Commerce. Although it is an ancient chart with no value, I have the honor to read it. pass."

   "Since you know..."

"Are you scared?" Velen stared at the navigator, his eyes full of fierceness, "It's a strange fog and reef. The savage English pirates dare to enter. We... the glorious French gentleman will be feared by the ancients. Grab the halter?"

   The navigator swallowed hard: "As long as the admiral has orders..."

   "Go home."

"Eh?"

"Order, return home." Velen dusted the front of his bloodstained windbreaker. "As far as I know, there have been no less than five adventurers trying to explore Hebasil Kirishima in the past 100 years. No. The stupid English pirate drove Brigentine into the fog this time, just like death."

   He sneered: "Our time is honorable and precious. The prey of Cantabrian is far more valuable than this group of dead people."
