Let's fight for our lives! The leader always raises the banner of struggle to guide the lackeys into shielding him
"Pirates are storming in!"
"Let's fight!"
"If we don't fight, we'll die! If we fight, there's still a sliver of hope! Kill them all!"
The Butcher had already stood up and was giving a pre-battle pep talk when he saw the pirates kicking down the door.
Actually, he didn't know what was going on either. Everything had been quiet before, and no pirates had paid any attention to the house or even come near it. How could the pirates suddenly start kicking down the door and preparing to rush in?
However, he obviously couldn't think about that now. Since the pirates were about to break in, what else was there to say? Let's all fight to the death!
Of course, while everyone was fighting desperately, the Butcher did indeed raise his knife, but unlike the other three newcomers, he didn't actually rush in and hack and slash at Xia Jiba! Instead, taking advantage of the dim light and chaotic situation inside, he shouted and brandished his knife, but his body moved with incredible smoothness and stealth as if he were moonwalking, and he quietly slipped out the window. Then, while the three newcomers were frantically hacking and slashing and the pirates were locked in a love-hate relationship, he quietly opened the window and nimbly climbed out!
What's the point of assembling this?!
The Butcher just watched " Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl" a couple of days ago. The pirates on the " Black Pearl " were cursed by Aztec Gold because they were too greedy. Their bodies have turned into undead skeletons that can't die even if they are chopped into seventeen or eighteen pieces. They can't be killed by knives or even firearms!
These " Black Pearl pirates" could have their heads picked off and put back without any problems; they could even roam freely on the seabed for a whole day!
Fighting to the death with this indestructible monster?
The Butcher said, "I'm a coward and I don't know any knife skills, so you guys go ahead!"
This is why the Butcher is willing to step forward and be the leader; in critical moments, he can protect others!
Humans have a tendency to blindly follow others, especially in unfamiliar and particularly dangerous environments. At a crucial moment, a leader shouting something like that can easily create a herd mentality, causing many to rush forward without regard for their own safety. Like the Butcher, who stood up, brandished his scimitar a few times, and shouted some inspiring slogans—especially when the pirates had actually entered the house and death was imminent—these newcomers were more easily spurred on. And indeed, the three newcomers brandished their scimitars and fought desperately against the invading pirates!
The Butcher crouched low and ran without looking back towards a more secluded and distant place, intending to find another spot to hide!
" Eye of Observation " Little White is an alchemical creature created by Wang Zhen using Alchemy knowledge, Transmutation Circle, Homunculus, and the Philosopher's Stone. It has followed Wang Zhen all the way, and whenever Wang Zhen makes a breakthrough in Alchemy, he usually applies the results to Little White. This has given Little White strength that is completely disproportionate to its size. Although it looks like an ordinary crow, it is actually a powerful creature that can easily kill First-Order Gene Lock.
Having this big shot lure three pirates is an understatement; it's more like using a forty-meter-long sword to cut ants!
Although the Butcher possessed some limited cleverness—he could incite other newcomers to kill pirates while he himself escaped by jumping out of a window and deliberately concealed himself in the shadows of the house while searching for a new hiding place—he was not particularly cunning.
Although such movements are full of mistakes in the eyes of an expert, considering that he is just a Butcher who slaughters pigs and sells meat, and these clumsy movements were learned from movies and TV dramas, they are naturally unbearable to watch.
What Wang Zhen and the other veterans really valued was that this seemingly burly and somewhat rough-looking man still had brains, even if not many. He was self-aware, had a stable mindset, and knew his own limitations.
In short, it may not seem cool that a newcomer can resist Xia Ji Ba's messing around, but in a messed-up place like the Infinite Space, a calm mindset is the best attribute for survival!
Let's put it this way: unless you're Main God figure like Zheng Zha or a cheat-like character like Wang Zhen, the Butcher's cowardly actions are the key to survival.
The Butcher was completely unaware that, due to his rather "amazing" performance, he had already been labeled as a reserve member of the Zhongzhou Team by Wang Zhen and others.
After that, Wang Zhen and the others stopped observing the Butcher and instead continued to observe the three newcomers in the room, wanting to see if they could escape the three pirates' attack and slaughter!
After all, in Infinite Space, strength and ideas are one thing, but luck is equally important. If these three newcomers can "kill" the pirates or survive the three pirate attacks, then once the " Black Pearl " leaves Port Royal, these three newcomers will also be able to obtain the status of reserve members of the Zhongzhou Team and board the ship with Wang Zhen and the others to go to sea.
If they don't live to see that day, it just means these three newcomers were unlucky.
A few minutes later, Wang Zhen once again sent " Eye of Observation " Little White to fly over Port Royal to monitor the " Black Pearl " and its fearless crew!
At this moment, this legendary pirate ship of the Caribbean Sea stood silently on the sea outside Port Royal, like a dark, behemoth. It did not continue to fire its cannons at Port Royal, after all, Port Royal was now on fire everywhere, many buildings had become ruins, and there were few people still active on the streets. They were either hacked to death or lying motionless on the ground. Only the slightly twitching fingers of people whose bodies had been trampled by pirates showed that they were still alive.
The three newcomers weren't so lucky!
In just a few minutes, the three pirates had chopped the three newcomers into several pieces!
The British Royal Navy, due to its illustrious past, had instilled in its sailors a reputation for arrogance, hubris, and self-importance. However, their basic tactical discipline remained intact. Although they failed to kill or annihilate the pirates who had come ashore to plunder, they at least managed to save the Governor of Port Royal, Elizabeth Swann, and their own lives. Therefore, even though the pirates had thoroughly looted and wreaked havoc on Port Royal Port Royal, the mighty Royal Navy still bravely and fearlessly repelled the legendary pirate ship, the Black Pearl!
At this moment, Wang Zhen and his men were actually considering whether they could kill all the pirates and then seize the " Black Pearl," which now had very few crew members left!
According to the price listed by the Main God, the reward for capturing the " Black Pearl " is 1 B-level side quest and 5000 reward points!
Now that the " Black Pearl " is so close, Wang Zhen and his men are truly tempted! Especially since it's not some hero's vehicle, nor a naval flagship, but just a pirate ship. Even the most immature Zheng Zha has absolutely no liking for these filthy, smelly pirates. If these sea creatures weren't now cursed by Aztec Gold, turning into undead skeletons impervious to swords and bullets, they would have already wanted these pirates!
"The curse of the Aztec Gold is rather strange. We don't know much about these things, so let's play it safe!"
"Agreed! If we can't seize a ship and leave Port Royal while these pirates are at it, the Royal Navy and the Governor will definitely see us. Our skin color will surely drive those Royal Navy, whose G-spot is already triggered by the pirates, crazy. We're not afraid, but it's still a problem and could negatively impact our mission."
"Playing it safe is the right thing to do!" In the movie, the Black Pearl has no special abilities other than its speed. But with only one thing—a top speed that, while fast, isn't unmatched by other ships—what makes the Black Pearl worthy of being called a legendary pirate ship alongside the Flying Dutchman?
After listening to Nie Quanzhen's words, Wang Zhen and the others nodded in agreement, because they really didn't know why the Black Pearl " was worth a B-level side quest and 5,000 reward points!
Wang Zhen secretly ordered " Eye of Observation " Little White to separate a shadow of himself and imprint it on the mast of the " Black Pearl ". He wanted to install a high-definition camera on the " Black Pearl "!
