Chapter 115 The Storm

Boom!

  Silver snakes danced wildly in the dark night sky making thunder bursts, as if the gods were venting their anger.

  The lightning shone on Hobber face, clearly reflecting the fear and regret in the eyes of the second son —

  why did he encounter such a big storm! ?

And when he saw the mast broke, he was dumbfounded.

  Snapped!

  A loud slap knocked Hobber over the deck.

  "If you weren't my own brother, I'd cut off your head right now!"

  His brother Horas voice came from behind, Hopper struggled to get up in a dizzy state, and mumbled,

  "I...I didn't think it would come to this.."

  Horas became even more angry when he heard this, he grabbed his younger brother by the collar, spitting wildly in his face: "Of course

  you didn't expect that! You idiotic brain is full of sea water and moss! It's just a woman, was it necessary to bring everyone into this mess ?"

  "I just heard that there are some pirates in the waters around the Stepstone Islands…"

  Horas now really wanted to wring his brother's head off, but after panting for some time, he finally pushed Hobber to the ground and shouted: "You will immediately organise soldiers to stand guard. And if you see pirates you are going be in the vanguard. CLEAR?!."

"Clear!"

  "Yes..." Hobber lowered his head and didn't dare to refute, but there was still hatred in his eyes.

  Horas turned to leave, but suddenly found a person standing in the shadow behind him at some point!

  Boom!

  A flash of lightning flashed by, and Horas saw the face of the person who came—

  Samwell Caesar!

  Horas heart skipped a few beats, and it took him a while to force out a smile: "Sam, it's you, you scared me. How long have you been there?"

Samwell took a deep look at the two brothers,he smiled and said,

  "I just arrived. What's going on?"

  "It's okay, it's okay." Horas pretended to be relaxed, "It's just a small storm. We've seen this kind of thing a lot. You have to trust Arbor Island sailing skills."

  "Umhh." Samwell nodded, "If you need any help, send someone to call me at any time."

  "Okay. By the way, Lady Natalie, is she okay. ? "

  "I'm going to see her."

  "Please convey the Redwyne family's apologies."

  "I will."

  Turning around, the smile on Samwell's face instantly retreated , and an undisguised killing look flashed in his eyes !

  Hobber Redwyne!

  Of course, Samwell knew that he must not make a reckless move .

  Earl Paxter's second son is not a wild man in the mountains or a refugee of the reach so he can't be killed casually.

  Regarding this, he had to learn from the top player Petyr Baelish "Littlefinger" - how to kill a man without making himself suspicious.

  He needs to build a small stage and find a scapegoat...

  'knock knock'

  "Who?"

  "It's me, Samwell."

  The cabin door opened after a while, and the pale-faced maid almost fell down just as she was about to salute.

  Samwell reached out to support her: "Miss Natalie , is she okay? "

  " Miss...she just vomited and ..."

  Samwell walked into the cabin and saw Natalie lying on the bed with messy hair.

  "Sam..."

  "Are you okay?" Samwell sat on the edge of the bed and touched the little girl's forehead.

  A little hot.

  "I'm so uncomfortable..." The little girl hugged Samwell's arm pitifully, and buried her head in his arms.

  Such a storm is unbearable even for a strong man like Samwell, let alone the delicate Natalie.

  "It's okay, the storm will pass soon."

  "Woooo——Sam, I don't want to go to King's Landing... Boo, I don't want to go back to Starfall City either... I'll go back to Eagle Island with you, okay... Boo Huh..."

  "Okay, okay, go to sleep, everything will be fine once you wake up." Samwell patted Natalie's back lightly.

  There was rumbling thunder and violent wind and rain outside the room, interspersed with various indistinct cries. The dim light in the room flickered non-stop, but it seemed to be the only warmth in this chaotic world.

  ...

  After finally coaxing Natalie to sleep, Samwell left the room lightly.

  The storm outside showed no sign of getting better, and even got more violent.

  The dense raindrops soaked through his clothes in an instant, and when the wind blew him, he felt a bit chilly. During the violent shaking, Samwell also felt that his stomach was tightly grasped by a big hand, and he tried his best to suppress the desire to vomit.

  In the dark night sky, flashes of lightning flickered from time to time. In the flash of light, Samwell suddenly saw a shocking scene -

  On the rough sea, several long boats with triangular sails rode the huge waves undulated , sometimes they were thrown into the air by the waves, and when they fall, they splashed water very high, and sometimes the whole boat was covered by the huge waves, and it took some time to get out of the waves dripping wet.

  They were like elves jumping on the sea, or more precisely, devils crawling out of hell!

"Pirates! Pirates!"

  Someone shouted urgently from the deck.

  Apparently, Samwell wasn't the only one who spotted these longships cruising nearby.

  "Ready to fight! Ready to fight!"

  Samwell heard Horas hoarse voice, but it was quickly covered by the rumbling thunder.

  damn it!

  Samwell's face turned pale, this was not the battlefield he was used to at all.

  In this violent wind and violent waves, he could barely stand still.

  And the personal guards he brought were also not used to the rough seas.

  Facing the pirates at this moment, he could only pray that the soldiers on Arbor Island were strong enough.

  Although they are well-known, there are only five warships here after all, and no one knows how many pirates are on the opposite side.

  It's even more unclear whether the opponent's brain has gone crazy, or if he really has enough confidence to dare to start a fight in this ghostly weather.

  Another long bolt of lightning pierced the sky and lasted for three to four seconds.

  Under its cover, the entire sea surface was like daytime.

  With this ray of light, Samwell finally saw everything in front of him clearly.

  However, he would rather see nothing clearly.

  In the waves around the fleet, there were as many as sixty or seventy longships cruising, like bloodthirsty gray wolves, closely following their prey.

  And among the pack of wolves, there was a wolf king—

  it was a single-masted warship with a dark red hull, slender and low, and its sails were as black as a starless night sky—

  yes, in such a strong wind, , it actually dared to open the sails!

  Driven by the bulging sails, this warship, which was only half the size of the flagship of the Arbor Island Fleet, approached quickly like a sharp arrow.

  The sharp prow smashed through the huge waves like a blade, and a black iron maiden loomed among the rolled up piles of white snow.

  She stood on the bow of the ship, with one arm stretched out, her thick black iron hair looked fluttering behind her head, and her pair of eyes were made of bright white pearls, shining with the light of thunder and lightning.

  But she has no mouth.

  At this time, Samwell finally saw the name of the warship—

  the Serenity.

Chapter 116: Chapter 116

Chapter 116 The Crow's Eye

"What Is Dead May Never Die!"

  The dexterous longboats cruised among the huge waves, shouting excitedly and frantically.

  "What Is Dead May Never Die!"

  "What Is Dead May Never Die!"

  ...

  Under the light of the lightning, small boats surrounded them like a pack of wolves.

  And that "Wolf King" happened to come to the right side of Arbor Island's flagship Purple Grape, sailing side by side with it.

  Samwell clearly saw a flag of a golden sea monster flying on a black background , and the crew members on the deck were brandishing machetes and roaring silently - none of them had tongues in their open mouths!

"The dead don't die, they will rise again, and will be stronger!"

  The only man with a tongue on the Serenity shouted.

  His skin was as pale as snow, and his appearance was as handsome as a prince in a fairy tale. His blue right eye were smiling, while his left eye was covered by a pitch-black eyepatch.

  Euron Greyjoy the Crow's Eye!

  Samwell immediately recognized the person's identity.

  The Greyjoy family is the ruling family of the Iron Islands. The people under their rule call themselves "Iron People". Farming and fishing are menial jobs, but plundering is the most honorable career.

  Because of this, the ironborn have always been the most feared and murderous pirates in Westeros.

  When the Targaryen family conquered Westeros, the Greyjoy family also bowed their heads to the Iron Throne and restrained the iron people under their rule, forcing them to abandon the "ancient road" of plundering and live a life of farming, fishing.

Hard and unremarkable life like mining.

  However, the ironmen never gave up their pursuit of the glorious and beautiful "ancient road". The looting gene has always existed in their bodies, and forcible suppression will only accumulate dissatisfaction and lead to rebellion.

  During the rule of the Targaryen family, the Iron Islands set off rebellions many times, but they were suppressed again and again.

  After the Robert's rebellion , the Greyjoy family surrendered to the new king Robert Baratheon, but only six years later, the Iron Islands could not bear the hard and boring life and rebelled again.

  However, this rebellion was also suppressed, and the Iron Islands fell silent again.

  Samwell didn't expect that he would meet the ironborn pirates in the narrow sea, and the leader was the craziest and most dangerous "Crow's Eye" Euron in the Greyjoy family!

  He remembered that Euron should have been exiled by his elder brother, Balon, the current lord of the Greyjoy family, and then he led his men to travel and plunder all over the world.

  However, I am afraid that this encounter must be "thanks" to Hobber Redwyne .

  "Crow's Eye" Euron probably didn't want to attract too much attention, so he didn't dare to plunder on the main route. He just hid in this sea area near the Stepstones Islands and robbed some passing small merchant ships.

  Unexpectedly, they encountered five ships flying the flag of Arbor Island and decided to accept them .

  Although the current Iron Islands is still in a state of being suppressed, Euron "Crow's Eye", a lunatic exiled by his brother, obviously will not abide by the laws of the Seven Kingdoms.

  "Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—"

  The sound's of piercing air was heard as the spears were thrown by the pirates with the help of wind.

  Samwell squatted decisively, hiding himself behind the side of the ship. There is no other way, this night made him blind and he can't see the spear of the opposite side at all.

  Then, he heard the sound of spears piercing the hull of the ship, and the screams of the sailors on the ship.

  "Hit back , Hit back!"

  This is the voice of Horas commanding the battle.

  Unfortunately, the pirates cleverly gained the upper hand, and the soldiers on Arbor Island had to throw spears against the wind or shoot bows and arrows if they wanted to fight back.

  But in this way, the power will be greatly reduced.

  In addition, pirate ships were small and flexible, and it was difficult to aim at them.

  Seeing that the counterattack could not achieve results, Horas simply ordered the soldiers to stop and wait for the pirates to board the ship before counterattacking.

  Taking advantage of this time, Samwell gathered several of his guards.

  He only brought fifty guards with him this time, but none of them had any experience in naval battles. In such a storm, there were only a few of them who could climb up to the deck and successfully find him.

  On the contrary, his first vassal, Knight Lucas Dayne, performed very well. He obviously had sailing experience, and he could walk on the ground even on a violently shaking ship.

  "Lord Caesar, you'd better go back to the cabin, I'll guard you outside." "

  " No, we will fight side by side ."

  Lucas didn't try to persuade him anymore, but just handed the oak shield in his hand to Samwell .

  Samwell didn't refuse. He didn't expect a battle when he came out just now, so he didn't bring a weapon at all.

  However, he has already asked his attendants to go to the room to get the giant sword [Dawn].

  "The pirates are boarding the ship!"

  Lucas reminded suddenly.

  Samwell shivered slightly, and then saw the first pirate appear on the side of the ship.

  Lucas rushed up with his sword first, and chopped down the pirate, but the pirate still hooked the climbing rope when he fell, shook a few times in the storm, and started climbing again.

  The sharp whistle sounded at the same time, and with it, there was the roar of Horas commanding the battle again .

  After a while, more and more pirates appeared on the side of the ship.

  They wore gray leather armor, held half-moon-shaped scimitars, and a few even held battle axes. They jumped nimbly on the side of the ship and on the deck, as if the violent wind and waves had no effect on them at all.

  The fighting sounds became dense all of a sudden.

  Samwell also had to carry his shield to join the fight.

  But he didn't just rush forward, but let himself adapt to the violently shaking and slippery deck, trying to find his balance.

  It wasn't until a blind pirate ran up to Samwell that he swung his shield and smashed it into the opponent's chest.

  Dang——

  The pirate's scimitar hit the shield, but was knocked out of his hand instead. Before he could cry out in pain, the shield smashed into his chest with great force.

  Boom!

  The pirate's chest was completely sunken, and blood mixed with viscera spewed out from his mouth crazily, splashing Samwell all over.

  Before Samwell could catch his breath, another pirate rushed over with a tomahawk.

  This time, he controlled his strength well, first dodged the opponent's slash, and then swung the shield to smash the opponent until he spit blood from the mouth and collapsed to the ground.

  Snatching the tomahawk from the opponent's hand, Samwell took advantage of the opportunity to make another blow.

  Crash—

  a big wave hit, and the turbulent sea flooded the deck.

  Both sides in the battle were overturned by this huge wave.

  Samwell slammed his ax into the side of the ship, trying to hold himself steady.

  Looking up again, He saw a vigorous figure appearing from the huge waves. That person stood firmly on the narrow side of the ship, his feet seemed to be nailed to it, no matter how violent the shaking was, he could not lose his balance.

  The strong wind blew up the black cloak behind him, revealing the golden sea monster's coat of arms.

  "Sheep of the Green Lands, we have come to take the iron money! Put down your arms, and I will give you a decent death."

  Euron Greyjoy the Crow's Eye was on board too.

  Samwell looked at this arrogant figure, a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and slowly he narrowed his eyes .
