From the wheelhouse of the passenger ship, Damiko could faintly see the silhouette of the caravan ship in the distance through the glass window.

Damiko ordered the first mate, "Stagger the position of the caravan in front and put a safe distance." "

The first mate, who received the order, turned the rudder and deflected it towards the inside of the sea.

Merchant ships.

"Boss, the fat sheep seem to have discovered us, they have begun to adjust their positions and distance themselves from us, do we continue to disguise?"

In the dark room, Arno propped his feet on the long table, his hands interlaced, his upper body hidden in the shadows, and only with the help of the light revealed by the shaky half-open door could he faintly see a gloomy and thin face and a pair of cold eyes full of indifference, bringing inexplicable depression and fear.

The pirate who came to report looked up at Arno, just looked at him, a terrifying sense of depression surged from his heart, the pirate hurriedly lowered his head, and fine sweat oozed from his forehead unconsciously.

Arno nodded, his voice low, "Surround the passenger ship, let the gunner not bombard the ship, open artillery to block the range of activity of the passenger ship, and conduct an engagement battle."

"It's the boss." The pirate promised, bowed his head, turned stiffly and left, and walked out of the room to convey his order.

Passenger ships, on the lookout, as soon as that terrible thought came to Rissi's mind, the fleet reacted.

The three small boats that had surrounded the medium-sized ship scattered and surrounded the passenger ship, followed by the square planks with gaps in the hull being pushed away one by one, the gray wolf retreated from the sheepskin, the beast showed its fangs, and the muzzle of the black hole appeared in the sunlight, reflecting the cold metallic light.

On the flagpoles of the four ships, a flag dominated by a black background and a white skull pattern was quickly raised.

The terrible premonition became a reality and exploded in his mind, which made Risi's heartbeat uncontrollably accelerate, but he was experienced and made the most correct choice the first time.

"Captain, opposite is a fleet of pirates."

Rissi's voice with a trembling voice spread in the empty cab, making the atmosphere in the entire cab instantly solidify and depress.

"Turn the bow of the ship, go full speed ahead, and open the distance from the pirate ship." Damiko's words broke the oppressive atmosphere in the cab.

The stunned first mate heard the captain's calm and powerful voice, he returned to his senses, his uneasy heart calmed down a little, he obeyed the captain's command and turned the bow of the ship, and began a tug-of-war with the pirates.

"Risy, you call the Navy for help, and then call me when you ask for help."

Without waiting for Risy to respond, he hung up the phone and walked to the broadcast control system in the cab.

He said to several crew members in the wheelhouse, "Go and organize the rest of the crew, maintain order on the ship, let the passengers assemble on the 10th floor, and then block the stairs to the upper level." "

On the order of the captain, several crew members ran out of the wheelhouse to contact the other crew members, and although they all had more or less doubts, time was tight enough for them to ask.

Isn't there no way back when you bring everyone to the top? Although blocking the road to the upper level can delay for some time, what is the difference between this and waiting for death.

But they thought about it, is there any better way than this way?

Damiko came to the broadcast control system and connected all the broadcasts on the passenger ship, he slowly exhaled, brewed words in his heart, and hurriedly spoke:

"Gentlemen and ladies on board, now I want to tell you a news, and before telling you this news, I hope you will cooperate and do what I ask."

"First, ladies please stain your faces and bodies now, preferably with some bad odors, if you are a handsome man with good looks, please do so."

The people who heard the broadcast were a little dazed, thinking that it was the prank of the bold and boring guy.

They informed the guards on board, "Go and see which boring guy has secretly taken over the broadcasting system." But

the guards were extremely familiar with this voice, this was the voice of Captain Darich, and for a while the guards were stunned in place, not knowing what the situation was.

"He's the captain!"

"What?" Exclamations sounded on all levels, "Is your captain not very good in mind and mentally ill?" "

The guards were a little dumbfounded for a while....

"Second, please go to the top floor in an orderly manner under the guidance of the crew."

Hearing this, the crowd became more and more puzzled, and some passengers who were irritable and curious walked out of the room to the radio office to ask clearly.

Passengers standing on the deck blowing the wind and enjoying the sea view found that the bow of the ship suddenly turned, and a approaching black dot appeared in the distance, and the outline of the black dot became clearer and clearer, plus the captain in the radio was a little strange but pointed to a certain possible word, most people had a bad premonition.

They turned around and ran back to the cabin and headed to the top floor, sailing on the sea and encountering this situation, except for natural disasters, it is a man-made disaster, and the most likely occurrence of man-made disasters is pirates.

"Third, I have asked the Navy for help, and the Navy will arrive to support us soon..." The

passengers on the ship heard this and reacted and went to the top floor, what situation do they need to ask the Navy for help?

The words behind the captain, as well as the loud roar of the shells, the waves raised by the explosion of the shells, and the shaking caused by the impact of the hull told them the answer.

"We are being attacked by a fleet of pirates!"

Even though Damiko used the words and did not indicate that there were pirates attacking at the beginning, he made a foreshadowing to alleviate the panic of the passengers, but there were still screams on all floors.

The sound of explosions continued to sound around the passenger ship, and the waves set off by the explosion continued to lap the hull, the passenger ship swayed, and some people on board stood unsteadily, fell to the ground, and rolled with the shaking of the hull.

Some lucky guys rolled onto fixed objects and stabilized their bodies, while some unlucky guys were hit in the head by objects that fell from mid-air, and the blood flowed and fainted, not knowing whether they were dead or alive.

The whole passenger ship fell into chaos, the screams of women in horror, the helpless cries of children, the groans of pain of those who fell to the ground.

After a round of shelling, the crowd rushed to the upper level, and the aisle was quickly blocked, and people scrambled to push each other, but no one could run.

The crew shouted loudly, wanting the crowd to go to the upper deck in an orderly manner, but in the turbulent and noisy crowd they seemed too small and could only lead the limited number of people around them.

The people who were still in the room pushed open the door, and what they saw was a crowded hallway, so crowded that it was difficult to even squeeze into the crowd.

This situation only occurs in the lower layers, and the upper layers are relatively much better, because the upper classes are all middle-class and rich people are much less than ordinary people.

Although they seemed a little panicked, they acted calmly and orderly.

In the wheelhouse, the first mate has continuous drops of sweat on his forehead, because of the pirate artillery interception, the passenger ship's travel speed is almost stagnant, and the pirate ship moving at full speed is surrounded from all sides, and in a few minutes the pirate ship will engage with the passenger ship.

"Captain, let's go to the top floor, our navigation path is blocked by the pirates' artillery, even if I drive it, the passenger ship can't open the distance from the pirates, it won't delay much, and if I accidentally turn in the wrong direction, it is very likely to be hit by artillery, and when the time comes, the ship will be damaged and slowed down, not to mention bad luck, the passenger ship will slowly sink."

Damiko looked at the lower layers of the congestion in the surveillance, a little helpless, the speed of the pirates was too fast, most of the crew did not reach the cabin, the shelling made the hull shake violently, and the crew in the middle of the road could only stabilize their figures while slowly moving forward.

And there were too few crew members left in the cabin to effectively organize the chaotic crowd and flee to the upper echelons in an orderly manner.

Hearing the words of the first mate, Daric nodded, he is not a selfless person either, he has a family, he has his own concerns, it is impossible to stay in the cab on the first floor to delay the pirate regardless of everything.

Moreover, there is not much he can do, he does not have the strength of an extraordinary person, that is, an ordinary person, and he cannot delay the pirates by staying on the first floor.

Since sailing cannot widen the distance from the pirates, and there is no delay, then the pirates boarding the ship is an inevitable thing, as if there is no need to stay in the wheelhouse.

He shook his head and looked at the broadcasting system and smiled.

The captain's silence made the first mate very uneasy, and he was afraid that the captain would not agree with his proposal, insisting on staying in the wheelhouse and driving the passenger ship to distance himself from the pirates.

It is worth mentioning that although the first mate was very uneasy and anxious, he did not look back at Darich's expression distractedly, but drove the passenger ship very attentively, so he did not see Damiko nodding in agreement with his statement.

The mere silence of a few seconds gave the first mate the illusion that time froze and froze, and he was about to speak, and before he was persuading the captain, he heard what the captain said.

"Okay, you go to the upper floor first."

The first mate breathed a sigh of relief, turned around with joy, and ran towards the cabin.

But when he ran to the door of the wheelhouse, he froze, he looked at the motionless captain and said, "Captain, aren't you leaving?"

Damiko smiled and shook his head, "I still have things to do." He pointed to the broadcasting system, "I'm here to reassure the passengers and try to get as many people as possible to the top floor."

The first mate was a little stunned and a little dazed and asked,

"Why?"

Perhaps for ordinary people, it is a great thing to do his best to help others while ensuring their own safety, but it is a pity that he is not only an ordinary person, but also a captain.

Damiko smiled and replied

, "I am the captain of the ship, and it is my responsibility to ensure the safety of every passenger!"

The first mate's vision was suddenly a little blurry, and he walked back to the wheelhouse and walked to the rudder:

"As the first mate, it is also my responsibility to steer the hospitable ship!"
