Shrouded Seascape

Chapter 231: It collapsed

Views:

Listening to the words in the square box, Daniel squeezed the box with both hands and crushed it into pieces.

Looking at the increasingly dazzling light of the "spider", Daniel grabbed a life raft on the edge of the boat and pulled them on it.

"Remember! Stay alive!! Don't avenge me!" Daniel said and then he opened his mouth and spat seven or eight small red stones mixed with blood into the raft.

Before Margaret, with tears in her eyes, could speak, Daniel tensed his muscles instantly and threw the light life raft out like a paper airplane.

Before the life raft fell into the water, Daniel turned his head and shouted to the control tower above: "Go! For Cavendish!!"

With the sound of the whistle, the Royal Giant opened all its guns and turned its propeller to move towards the "Spider" in front.

"Brother! We can't let our father die like this!!" Margaret shouted anxiously.

Jack said nothing. With a painful look on his face, he carefully picked up the bloody red stones in the raft and put them in his pocket.

"Hiss~" As a strong light illuminated the entire sea, the two of them subconsciously narrowed their eyes.

When the strong light disappeared, the Royal Giant carrying Daniel slowly stopped.

"Boom, boom." Margaret heard the sound of her own rapid heartbeat.

"No, it's impossible! My father is invincible!!"

With a metallic creaking sound, the Titanic-sized ship slowly broke in half.

The huge waves caused by the two pieces of ship wreckage hitting the water pushed the life raft further away.

Looking at the spectacular scene on the black and white screen in front of him, Swan, who was sitting on the leather sofa, blew a sharp whistle from his mouth.

"Although it took three years to make this thing, it is definitely worth it, don't you think, Your Holiness?"

The huge stone sculpture beside him nodded slowly. "Your mechanical craftsmanship is quite good. I thought it would take longer."

"Hahaha, as the foundation of the British Isles, this is a must. I invest a lot of money in those universities every year just for this."

Swan raised his head and took a sip of the wine in the glass, then said to the Pope with curiosity: "I'm still very curious about where you got those technical drawings and objects."

The Pope smiled and shook his head. "You don't need to know this. As long as you complete your goal, I will give you more unimaginable benefits."

"Oh? It seems that the Pope still has a lot of good things in his hands. Let me guess, these things should come from the crack in Hope Island, right? Won't the God of Light be angry if you take his things so casually?"

The smile on the Pope's face slowly disappeared, and he looked at Swan coldly.

"Puff~" Swan, who was drinking, sprayed a mouthful of wine directly onto the screen in front of him. He excitedly covered his neck with both hands, making a crackling sound. He suddenly found that he could not breathe any oxygen.

Swan's face turned from white to red, and then from red to gray.

The Governor of the British Isles, who had been so arrogant just a moment ago, now knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the Pope, as humble as a dog.

Almost at the moment when Swan's eyes turned white and his consciousness became blurred, the feeling of suffocation finally disappeared.

Swan lay on the ground and took deep breaths. He had never felt that ordinary breathing was so precious.

A cold light flashed in Swan's eyes, but it quickly subsided. He lowered his head and covered his neck.

The stone sculpture of the Pope cracked, and bits of light shone through the cracks. He leaned over and stared at Swan on the ground with a sense of oppression.

"I don't care how much you hate me in your heart, but if you dare to delay my plan, I will make you suffer a hundred times a thousand times the pain you just suffered!"

Swan lowered his head and sat in his seat, looking at the ships still resisting on the circular screen. He took out a brass trumpet and shouted into it with gritted teeth: "Don't spare any of these guys! Kill them all! And the people from the Cavendish family, I want to see all their bodies! All of them! "

At this time, Margaret and Jack had already changed to a speedboat. Jack ignored the artillery fire in the distance and drove the boat towards the Hefang Island Pier.

"Whoosh~" a bright firework exploded in the air.

By the time the two siblings arrived at the port, there was already a car waiting for them.

Margaret's body was trembling. She leaned against her brother, as if looking for something to rely on.

But Jack had no intention of comforting his sister. He took out a dagger and quickly dug some small red stones out of his body.

When the car stopped at the gate of the Governor's Mansion, Jack already had a handful of stones in his hand. He put the stones into his pocket and pulled his sister towards the gate.

"Jack! Why is there blood on your body? Where is your father? What happened to the negotiation?" The mother of the two came forward.

Jack didn't say anything and also pulled her towards the study.

He skillfully pressed on a book on the left side of the study, and a secret passage appeared in front of him.

He took his mother and sister down the spiral staircase and soon a spacious underground river appeared in front of them. A steamship as big as the Mouse was floating on the river.

"There is everything you need to escape on the ship. After you get out from here, go to other sea areas for refuge. The North Sea will be uneasy for a long time." Jack said and jumped off the boat.

Margaret seemed to understand something. She excitedly stretched out her hand to him, "Brother, come back soon!!"

Jack grabbed her hand and kissed the white back of her hand. "I can't do that. I'm the eldest son. If I disappear, they will definitely do everything they can to find me back."

After he said that, he took out a small bag of stones wrapped in cloth from his pocket and threw it over.

"This is our Cavendish family's heirloom. Take it. I can't protect you on the rest of the journey, Margaret. It's time for you to grow up."

"Then I won't leave either!" said Margaret excitedly as she was about to jump off the boat.

But at this moment, a hand reached out with a glass bottle and gently shook it in front of her nose, and the girl slowly fell down.

"Thank you for your hard work in protecting my sister." Jack said to the five men and women who appeared out of thin air.

"Swish!" Everyone stood at attention and saluted in unison.

Looking at the ship disappearing in the darkness, Jack walked back with a leisurely pace.

He sat in his father's office, picked up the family photo on the table next to him, and slowly touched the four smiling faces with his hands.

A gentle smile appeared on his face, as if Jack was recalling something beautiful.

He didn't know how much time had passed before he heard noise outside.

"Time flies..." Jack took out some red balls the size of ping-pong balls from the drawer and stuffed them into his mouth.

It was very uncomfortable to swallow these things forcefully, but Jack did not hesitate and continued to swallow them despite the severe pain in his throat.

When he felt the red ball was almost reaching his throat, he finally stopped.

He lit a cigar and waited for the people outside to arrive.

"Bang!" The door was kicked open. When Jack saw those people wearing British naval uniforms, a look of disappointment appeared on his face.

"Where is your Governor Swan? Tell Swan to come see me!"

The marines ignored him and raised their guns towards Jack.

Jack had a self-deprecating smile on his face, opened his mouth and took a deep drag on the lit cigar.

Instantly, the entire Hefangdao Island heard a deafening explosion, and the wandering islanders looked in the direction of the sound. The Governor's Mansion on Hefang Island collapsed.
