George commanded, "Take Master Cressien to the captain's quarters, and fetch him some hot fruit wine with aroma, I don't like his cough, and remember to squeeze the potion into it, and get some of the food you have just counted!"

The two crew members led Cresian into a large cabin in the middle of the ship, with a thick carpet, glass windows, and huge leather chairs that could seat all three Cressien comfortably, and the wine and food were quickly delivered, and he held it in both hands and took a sip with gratitude, the warmth spread in his chest, and it was comforting, this little bit of hot fruit wine was even more delicious than anything he had eaten before.

George then walked into the captain's room, "You have to bear some of this wine, my good lord, the wine on the ship is not as good as that of the Dubrovnik royal family, so let's be wronged for the time being." ”

"I can warm my chest." "Hot wine works much more than medicine......"

"In my opinion, you might as well put some medicine on it, oh my God! Staying on a desert island for so long, by the way, what do you think of this beautiful chair? Look, he's got a fat ass! ”

"Who?" Cresian asked, sipping a mulled wine.

"The Pirate King of the Pirates...... Tell you, he is like a whale with a long beard, and these chairs are made according to his figure, and though he seldom leaves his place, in fact, in my opinion, the fat man sits comfortably on anything, for he has cushions with him......"

"Have you defeated the pirate king Olu?" Cresian asked, "And snatched his chair?" He set the empty cup aside.

"Wrong, wrong, this is not called robbery, fighting pirates is also within the scope of our royal fleet, I'm just collecting debts, oh, theoretically I've made a fortune, yes, but in practice? Hey, the pirate Olu is a rich pirate, most of the treasure we have gotten has been handed over to the treasury, to be reasonable, if someone encounters the same situation as me, he will definitely take the treasure left by the pirate Olu, and become the master of the pirates in the Adriatic Sea, occupy a sea area as the king, without the permission of the pirate king, no one can cross that territorial waters, yes, no! The outlaws wanted to sneak through the night to evade the Pirate King's taxes and inspections, but of course I wouldn't do that, so I was rewarded by the royal family, and that's what made me different from those people. ”

"The battle at sea is terrible...... "Cresian listened to what George said, in fact, all this is not so simple, the sea is far more vast than the land, if you want to completely defeat someone or a certain strength at sea, unless it is a crushing strength, otherwise it only takes a stroke of effort, they will disappear, and they will never be found again......

"Do you want to see the pirate king Olu? It just so happened that he was also imprisoned on the island here. George said.

Cresion said, "Does Master George want me to see it too?" ”

They stepped out of the ship and soon disembarked, the long and lonely road to the island's cells, where the docks, once crowded with soldiers and sailors, were now empty and desolate, guarded only by a few crew members, and Cresine thought to himself that there were too many people who had died in a few wars.

The gate of the last tower was tightly closed, and George, the captain of the royal fleet, struck the wooden door with iron nails with his fist, and no one answered. He switched to kicking, again and again, and finally, a crossbow appeared in the tower above, looking down from the two tall top floors, "Who?" ”

He put his hands to his lips, raised his head and shouted, "I am George, the captain of the royal fleet!" What are you guys grinding on? ”

"I'm sorry, my lord, but we're so sleepy that we just fell asleep."

"Open the door!"

As they walked towards the tower, Kreshin found it to be a warm black prison.

Yes, it was dark, and although there were torches in the ledges of the corridor walls, and a faint and flickering orange light shining through the ancient iron bars, the back half of the cell was still immersed in darkness, and it was damp, and it was to be expected on such an island and in such a place, after all, the sea was close at hand, and there were rats in it, as in any black prison, if not more.

But Cresian couldn't complain about the cold, his palms pressed against the walls of the black prison, and he could feel a little eerie warmth.

One of the two guards was short and strong, with broad shoulders and a strong giant palm. He wore studded leather armor, and the other guard was older, hunched over, with a yellow face, with greasy, dirty hair and rough skin, and his clothes were ill-fitting and appeared short and wide.

There are no windows on the thick stone walls of the black prison, so naturally there is no light of the sun and the moon, and the change of day and night can only be distinguished according to the change of guards. "In the darkness, people become lonely and eager to hear voices, and whenever the guards come to the cell of the king of the island, whether it is to deliver food or change the commode, he will try to speak to them, and he knows that no one will heed his pleas or pleas, so he asks questions, hoping that one day some one will speak." ”

"What will Oulu ask?" Cresion said, wondering what it was like to be a pirate king who once dominated the seas.

"Hmm...... He will promise the guards many benefits and the location of some treasures, of course no one will believe him, his words are true or false, but even if it is true, it is impossible to let him go like this, maybe it will be more valuable to keep him here in the future. George said slowly, "Lord Creshien, when a pirate king loses the power he has, then everyone will be his enemies, although the pirate king also has a king, but after all, he lost to this thief word, no one wants to help such a person, his future is bleak......"

Cresian understood the meaning of the words of George, the captain of the royal fleet, without strength and support, he was a thief who fell into the grass, a pirate who everyone chased, and the difference between him and the king of pirates was that he was a nobleman and not a commoner, no, not just a nobleman, but a close relative of the king, the most powerful person in the entire kingdom, but only if he swore allegiance to the king and was recognized by the king and the royal family, all this could become a reality, Otherwise, the name of the nobility and the royal family will become a burden and a stumbling block, and the powerful will not want to be an enemy of the same honorable status.

It's ridiculous and funny, Kreseen has always been proud of his status as a nobleman and a royal family, but now he suddenly no longer feels that way, in the face of absolute power, identity can be easily crushed, just as an illegitimate child who everyone is eager to become the former prime minister, leading all kinds of kingly affairs in Dubrovnik, and defeating royal families like them mercilessly one after another!

McLandall did what he couldn't do as a royal nobleman, and the illegitimate son of the Randall family, whom he once despised, did indeed work some miracles......
