"But now, it's completely different... After we kill you and drive away those cowardly nobles, this huge ship will be under our complete control... By then, we will have the remaining Art Stones, and we will have supreme freedom whether we go to the City on the Sea or somewhere else—"
Austin looked at him, his teeth chattering.
"You... shouldn't have asked for things that don't belong to you!" He shouted angrily, "You have betrayed your families and your beliefs. You are a group of pathetic traitors—"
"Whatever you say, Austin." Yawen raised the knife in his hand high, and a cold light flashed in his eyes:
"...We have come to this point. We can't turn back. This huge ship is destined not to carry you to the legendary treasure city...As for that rotten empire, what treasure do you still want...dream on."
He shouted loudly, and the knife in his hand was about to fall.
“Squeak—”
A soft sound.
The door behind him was pushed open slightly.
"Burke?" Yawen tilted his head slightly. He knew that there were some special crew members following him. They were here to take over this huge ship. "Wait outside for a while. I'll come out after I take care of this old guy..."
“Swish!”
The sword blade, shining with cold light, passed by his neck at this moment.
A black-haired young man wearing Viscount's uniform and holding a kerosene lamp was looking at him with a sword raised.
A strong smell of blood suddenly rushed in from outside the door, and there was blood splattered on the young man's sword.
"you……"
Yawen's head flew up.
At this moment, he didn't even realize his own death, there was only one thought in his mind.
Why would a stranger appear here! ?
He remembered that there were clearly some special crew members following him. They were about to take over this beautiful pearl on the sea with him. They were about to sail towards a bright tomorrow and future...
Why does a stranger appear behind...
Blood flew and the head fell to the ground.
“Gurgle…”
The cabin collapsed and heads made a rolling sound.
Arwen's headless body fell to the ground, right on top of Austin.
Looking at the horrific mutilated corpse in front of him, Austin forced himself to suppress the urge to vomit, pushed Alvin away, stood up, and confronted the young man with the sword.
In the slightly shaking cabin, he held onto the wall and stared nervously at the person standing in front of him.
Taking a look in the dim light, he suddenly felt that the person in front of him looked familiar.
"You are..." Austin blinked and confirmed again: "The passenger on the fourth floor... Mr. Viscount?"
He had a strong ability to recognize people and he remembered the appearance of all the passengers above the third floor. Naturally, he also remembered the impoverished noble who had risked everything to board the ship in search of treasure.
But, isn't this a guy who is neither good at literature nor martial arts? Why, why would he come here in the middle of the night...?
"Captain?" Su Ming'an glanced at Austin, whose calves were trembling in the corner, and said, "It seems that you are not in the same group with those crew members."
"Of course I am not!" Austin said, "I will never betray the great empire! - Lord Viscount, even if you and Yawen and others force me together, I will not compromise. This ship will definitely arrive safely at the end of this voyage..."
"That's good." Su Mingan interrupted his oath-like words.
He walked towards the control panel and saw the unexpectedly simple layout. There were only a few buttons, three railings, and a resource stone shining next to it.
"You can drive this boat by yourself, right?" he asked.
Austin was stunned, as if he didn't expect that this hot-blooded guy would ask him a question so calmly.
"Yes...Yes." He swallowed and explained, "The driving method of the Art is not complicated. It is mainly driven by resource stones. I can drive it alone."
Su Mingan turned around: "Is the learning method difficult?"
"It's not difficult. It's in the operating manual next to it. But it's still hard to control without practice...and it also requires the cooperation of the expert..." Austin replied.
He dared not not answer.
The blood-stained sword blade was right in front of him, and he didn't dare to hesitate at all.
Su Mingan listened to his words and picked up the booklet beside him.
The moment his eyes met the page of the book, the system prompted that loading had begun.
[Learning how to drive the Ater...]
【Please keep your sight unchanged. 】
[Estimated learning time: 129 minutes. (After learning, the system will assist you in driving the Atlantean.)]
Looking at this system prompt, Su Mingan knew that he had made the right move.
Sure enough, as long as he took over control of the cockpit, he would be able to control this huge ship.
He stared at the booklet in his hand, watching the system progress slowly loading...
On the side, Austin, who was trembling all over, looked at Su Mingan who was studying seriously and couldn't help but say: "Um, Lord Viscount, Lord Viscount?"
Su Mingan interrupted his studies and looked at him sideways.
Meeting Su Ming'an's gaze, Austin said with a stiff face, "My Lord Viscount, I can see that you are also a person who hates evil. Thank you for killing those traitors, but leave the driving to me now. You have more important things to do, which is to quickly report this absurd matter to the Grand Duke on the sixth floor..."
Su Mingan continued to look at him.
"Your Excellency, this is a very bad thing. There are crew members who actually want to seize the driving rights of this Pearl and rob the treasures of the great empire..." Austin met his gaze, but became more and more excited as he spoke: "Your Excellency, you must report this matter truthfully to the Grand Duke. You must not tolerate such a bad and perverse behavior..."
