Chapter 184

Seville is the most prosperous trade transfer station in Spain in contemporary times. Xin Sheng originally thought that the public security here is very good.

If I had known that Sevilla's underground gang would dare to ride horses and fire guns in the street, Xin Sheng would have brought more people and be more prepared.

"Swoosh!"

Moonlight Arrow hit a red scarf riding a horse again, and Xin Sheng skillfully pressed Angelica's head down to avoid it.

"Bang!"

"Don't stop, we'll leave Sevilla's range."

"I'm trying my best to paddle!"

Angelica did her best, and a lot of sweat oozed out of her forehead, and the clothes she just bought were soaked in sweat, making her look more and more close to her body.

Just as Xin Sheng was about to pull the bow again, the sound of neat footsteps suddenly came from the shore.

"Range the array and raise the gun!"

Two teams of Spanish official troops appeared on both sides of the river at some point. Under the orders of the officers, the well-trained Spanish soldiers raised their guns together.

"Raising the muzzle away from the civilians, aim at the riding mobs, and shoot!"

"Bang bang bang!"

The neat row of gunfire sounded almost at the same time, and the pursuers who had been arrogant and arrogant before fell in line.

"Come forward in the second round and shoot!"

"The third formation..."

As Angelica rowed hard, the Spanish officer's command became blurred and inaudible as he gradually moved away, but the crisp gunshots still floated over the Seville border.

At the same time, the Red Neck Headquarters, which is rooted in the vicinity of the Trading Home, was also invaded by the official army. This gang that had existed for more than 100 years came to an end because of the displeasure of a big shot.

"Bang!"

With the last gunshot, a middle-aged fat man in gorgeous clothes and big belly fell to the ground with his eyes open.

The black-clothed guard, who was called Juan by "Carlos", retracted the pistol indifferently: "The mission is completed, the team will be withdrawn."

...

Due to the intervention of the Spanish official army, Xin Sheng and Angelica successfully escaped from Sevilla.

Angelica, who survived the disaster, had her hands trembled with some strength because she had been rowing vigorously for a long time.

"Thanks a lot."

Confirmation through Daedalus's vision to eliminate the threat, Xin Sheng patted Angelica on the shoulder with approval.

"Go and rest a little while, I'll row."

It was already dusk when we escaped Seville. The sun gradually set, and the afterglow of the sunset shone on the river surface, reflecting dim yellow rippling waves.

Having just experienced a life-and-death escape, Angelica's fast-beating heart has not yet calmed down, and she is a little excited.

“Is the outside world so thrilling every day?”

Xin Sheng, who was rowing at a constant speed, shook his head amused: "How is it possible? Who can stand being chased every day?"

"You just accidentally got implicated by me. Those red scarves should be for money."

Lying flat on the board, Angelica looked at the sunset that was about to fall into the horizon in a daze, and her excitement gradually calmed down.

"I always thought that under the protection of my Lord, the world outside the church was also harmonious and friendly. I didn't expect that I would meet the vicious and vicious people who were trying to make money and kill them as soon as I left the church."

Xin Sheng smiled dismissively: "You have to learn to get used to it. The world is not as beautiful as you think. There are struggles and unfairness everywhere."

"Maybe."

After personally experiencing a "social practice class", Angelica's beautiful fantasies about the outside world were exposed.

Unexpectedly, Angelica was not particularly disappointed, but instead felt a vague feeling of expectation and excitement.

Raising his hand and pressing it on the thick layer of fat on his chest, Angelica silently felt her heartbeat.

‘Has I fallen? Or is my hidden nature gradually released without the shackles of the church?’

...

Returning to Port of Cadiz, Xin Sheng and Barnabas and others successfully met.

At this time, most of the sailors had already gone ashore to enjoy the nightlife. There were only a few sailors standing guard on the boat, as well as Barnabas and Herodotus, who were left behind.

"Haha! Sure enough, Captain, you were also attacked."

"also?"

Xin Sheng raised his eyebrows: "So that..."

"Yes."

Barnabas raised his head and killed a whole glass of rum: "A group of thieves planned to stop us, but they failed."

"ha!"

After breathing a sip of alcohol comfortably, Barnabas's face changed the subject with a playful smile.

"Captain, the woman you brought back is amazing. She was fascinated by the young man who stayed on the boat, but she still had no idea about anything."

Xin Sheng smiled, clinked glasses with Herodotus, and drank a whole glass of wine generously.

"Some women need to learn how to show off their charm the day after tomorrow, and they are not good at learning, while some women are naturally charming and have strong temptation in every move."

"You can't envy such things as talent."

"so?"

Herodotus wiped the wine foam beside his mouth and asked Xin Sheng with a smile: "Captain, you only said that she was originally a nun. What exactly is going on? Do you have any ideas about her?"

Xin Sheng leaned on the side of the ship and looked up at the sky.

In this era when the industrial revolution was not yet on the rise, the atmosphere was not polluted, and the stars in the sky could be clearly seen at night.

The clear night sky is dotted with dazzling galaxies. Looking at the magnificent night sky makes people feel a special sense of integration, as if nothing in the world can restrain oneself.

"Her identity is quite troublesome, she is the only blood relative left by Blackbeard."

"Blackbeard?!"

Barnabas and Herodotus were originally full of ambiguity and jokes, and the black beard's name was poured on their heads like a pot of cold water.

"Yes, do you remember the information we found in the port yesterday?"

Herodotus had a relatively flexible mind and quickly linked the two things.

"Blackbeard was searching for churches along the Spanish coast not long ago. Is it her the one I was looking for?"

“That’s it.”

Xin Sheng's expression was a little confused: "To be honest, I don't know if the decision to take her in for a while is correct."

"Half the responsibility for her being kicked out of the church is to me. I can't sit still and see this ignorant white sweet who is foolish and falls into the dust."

Barnabas patted Xin Sheng on the shoulder comfortingly: "Captain, there are some things that don't need to be too concerned about gains and losses, and following inner actions may not be a bad thing."

Herodotus also added: "I don't think Miss Angelica will continue to be so naive. She is very smart, but she just lacks a lot of common sense."

"When she really understands the world, I believe Miss Angelica will recognize the reality."

Sighing, Xin Sheng said with a wry smile: "It would be great if this could be done. Her overly naive ideals... are really unrealistic."

"My battle with Blackbeard is inevitable. I just hope she can see Blackbeard's nature clearly before the final battle comes."

Xin Sheng, who was in charge of the safety of the Jackdaw, did not turn on the Hawkeye technique, and his perception of the surroundings was also weakened while being slightly drunk.

In front of the stairs leading to the deck on the lower cabin, Angelica silently retracted her hand that was about to open the cabin door and sighed silently.
