Justinian collided with the Croatian pirates.

The ferocity of these desperate bandits exceeded Justinian's imagination, and they remained bloody despite being attacked.

"Where to run?"

The first thing Justinian encountered was a strong man carrying an extremely heavy long-handled axe, but something happened suddenly, and the pirate's long-handled ax had not had time to lift up and chop it down.

Justinian knew how powerful the Croatian axemen were, so naturally he would not give the opponent any chance.

Justinian shouted: "Death!"

The long sword in his hand drew a beautiful arc, cutting off the opponent's arm holding the long ax in an instant. The sharp sword pierced the pirate's heart. The Croatian pirate roared in shock. He didn't expect it at all. Life and death were decided in just a moment. Justinian kicked him away and threw him into a nearby fire. The pirate was still alive and his whole body was on fire, and his screams were earth-shattering.

"Kill them, kill them for me!" The pirate leader was shocked and angry. His men had the advantage in numbers, but these Greek soldiers seemed to be fighting for their lives, and the weapons in their hands seemed to be good.

Another pirate wielding a scimitar struck behind Justinian. Feeling the wind behind his head, Justinian responded immediately.

A loud shout: "Die!"

Based on his own feeling, Justinian turned around and pierced the opponent's chest with his sword, but the sword and chain armor were twisted together and could not be pulled out for a while.

Two pirates on both sides immediately pounced on him.

not good?!

At the moment when Justinian was startled, two javelins pierced directly into the back of the pirate's head, killing him.

Justinian drew his sword and blood spurted out. Looking behind him, it was Abdera who saved his life.

Abdera's combat skills come from his ancestors. He is not only a battle-hardened veteran, but also a hereditary soldier in the military region. Isn't this a big deal? The pirates died in his hands unjustly!

Drenched in cold sweat, Justinian, who had escaped death, was still in shock.

"Thank you!" Justinian nodded. He finally knew that although he had excellent physical fitness, his combat experience was still not as good as that of veterans like Abdera.

"Please be sure to pay attention to your safety. It will not be worth it if you are injured in the hands of these pirates." Abdera said guarding Justinian.

At this time, the two sides were fighting in a melee, with weapons clashing and screams heard from time to time. The battle was bloody and cruel. Not only the pirates, but also the soldiers of Epirus fell in a pool of blood.

However, due to the sudden attack, less than half of the pirates lost their combat effectiveness in an instant. Under the attack of the Epirus soldiers, the Croatian pirates could no longer hold on.

Justinian watched the battle and shot down several pirates with his bow and arrows. In an instant, only seven of the pirates were left fighting, fighting with Valens and others. Justinian's scouts also When there are two of them, it's basically a one-on-one fight.

But at this moment, everyone was in trouble, especially Valens, who was the first to rush out. He was stabbed hard on the wrist and could only hold a sword in one hand. However, the opponents in front of them were even more unbearable. The pirates who had not had time to put on their chainmail armor were already covered in blood and scars.

But a big man among the pirates caught Justinian's attention. He was extremely ferocious, and he danced like a tiger with the heavy hammer in his hand. No one dared to come close.

This man is the leader of these pirates. Although he was injured in many places, he is still so brave. Previously, an Epirus soldier was accidentally smashed by him, and his brains were scattered everywhere. Even Abdera was also

If you find out how tricky the opponent is, you will still have to pay casualties even if you take down the opponent.

On the other side, the pirate leader also seemed to want to fight his way out to the sea.

But how could Justinian allow the other party to escape under his nose? This survivor must be kept. The long sword in Justinian's hand swung out fiercely, giving off an astonishing cold light.

"Lord Justinian?!" Abdera, who was on guard at the side, did not expect that Justinian would take the initiative to rush forward again.

The big man holding a sledgehammer saw Justinian rushing over and roared in shock. He could see that this young man was undoubtedly a big shot, and only by taking him down could he have a chance of survival.

The pirate leader rushed forward, raised his hammer and slammed it down, but Justinian also knew the power, dodged aside, and raised his sword.

It scratched the big man's chest, and the frightened man backed away suddenly. He just escaped and stared blankly at his chest. The wounds on it were clearly visible, and he was just a little bit close to being disemboweled.

"Go to hell, you brat!"

The hammer in the angry man's hand was flying at an alarming speed. Justinian had no time to pick up the weapon to block. He jumped up and hit him hard on the chin with a knee. The pirate leader's chin was immediately dislocated.

He staggered back, but the opponent immediately released the hammer and hit Justinian's chest several times. You could clearly hear the sound of Justinian's sternum breaking.

With a "Wow" sound, Justinian spat out a mouthful of blood. He didn't expect the other party to be so brave and surprisingly strong.

"Go to hell!"

The furious pirate leader couldn't care less whether to capture Justinian alive or not. He was seriously injured and just wanted to kill Justinian immediately. As he spoke, he raised the hammer in his hand.

But at this critical moment, Abdera rushed forward. He pulled out the two daggers from his waist. The pirate's giant hammer directly hit Abdera's right shoulder, but Abdera swung his left hand and stabbed him.

Entering the heart of the big man, one knife after another penetrated three layers of chain armor and penetrated straight into the heart.

"How could it be?" His eyes widened with dismay, and the pirate leader finally took his last breath and fell to the ground.

In the blink of an eye, most of the pirates had suffered casualties. In addition, their leader was killed, and they suddenly lost their desire to fight. The Epirus soldiers were so fierce that the frightened pirates immediately dispersed.

"Catch them alive!" Justinian shouted. Since the pirate leader is dead, the others must be left alive.

"Yes!" Their morale was boosted, and the soldiers of Epirus rushed forward. The pirates who begged for mercy and escaped were immediately caught and captured without mercy.

Justinian breathed a sigh of relief, and he gained something from this. However, looking at Abdera who was injured to save himself, Justinian quickly said with concern: "Mr. Abdera, come quickly!"

After being hit by the hammer, the fractures were probably minor, but the man who gritted his teeth waved his hand even though his face was pale and said: "You're fine, Your Excellency Justinian, I'm just a little injured."

But it's obvious that Abdera's condition is not good.

"Sir, what should we do?" After counting the number of people, three wounded and one dead, Valens asked Justinian's next order.
