Chapter 1311: Demon Shrouded(1/2)
Soon the fleet led by Janus also rushed into the depths of the "ghost sea", aiming directly at the local stronghold.
The "ghost fleet" traveled very fast, and soon it had invaded the opponent's base camp.
"This time, according to the instructions of Chief Gio, we must catch them all. These notorious pirates must not show mercy to them. Do you understand?" Janus ordered his subordinates with confidence.
But who would have thought that after they entered the enemy's base camp, they were dumbfounded by what they saw.
It turns out that in this shocking water village, there are no longer those vicious pirates.
Some were just a group of old, weak, women and children, and they all looked at Janus and the others in astonishment.
"What's going on?" Seeing such a scene, Janus didn't know what to do for a moment.
"Who are you?" Janus's lieutenant asked at that time.
"We are Goster's family..." an elderly woman replied.
"Gost?" Janus narrowed his eyes instantly.
The Goster mentioned by the old woman was the name of a pirate leader who had dominated the Caribbean Sea for many years. He had been killed by Janus and others in a previous naval battle.
It turns out that this is indeed the base camp of pirates, and these are their families.
It's just that the pirates have been defeated by Janus and others, and the only ones left are these unarmed family members.
"Sir Janus, what should we do?" the adjutant also looked at Janus and asked.
If they were extremely vicious pirates, these soldiers would definitely attack them without blinking an eye.
But now, in front of them are only some old, weak, women and children. How can you tell them to do this?
"This..." Janus looked at this group of people, hesitation written on his face.
Before coming, Gio had warned him repeatedly that no matter who he met, he must kill them all.
This puts Janus in a dilemma.
"Could it be that Boss Gio knew the true identity of this enemy stronghold early on and asked me to be the executioner?" Janus' heart sank.
"Sir, should I kill or not kill?"
"Please spare us! We have nothing to do with those pirates!"
The questions and pleas came one after another, and Janus was confused.
"Ah!" At this moment, a scream suddenly sounded from the crowd.
Janus looked up and found that his adjutant's face was pale and blood was slowly seeping out from his back.
The adjutant turned around, and a sharp knife stabbed into a vital part of his back.
"Floyd!" Janus ran over and hugged his adjutant.
At this moment, Adjutant Floyd was already breathing out more and taking in less air.
Janus looked at Floyd's wound, and the dagger pierced his heart directly. The adjutant Floyd, who had been with him for many years, was already beyond saving.
"Who did it?" Janus was furious.
Floyd was speechless, but slowly raised his right hand and pointed forward.
Looking along Floyd's hand, Janus saw a boy less than ten years old with his hands covered in blood.
The young man's face was pale, and he seemed to be frightened by his own behavior.
It turned out that just when Janus was hesitating about how to deal with these pirate families, a young pirate sneaked up behind Floyd and pierced the adjutant's heart with a knife.
"Damn it!" Janus was furious, and he struck out with sword energy with his backhand, which also knocked the frightened boy away far away.
"Damn it, take revenge for Chief Floyd!"
The soldiers of the surrounding "Ghost Fleet" saw Floyd being severely injured, and they were all furious.
Their butcher knives have been aimed at these defenseless old, weak, women and children, and a killing is inevitable.
"Stop!" At this time, Janus quickly shouted to stop everyone.
Although Janus was filled with regret when he saw Floyd being seriously injured, he couldn't bear to let him massacre these civilians for a while.
But at this moment, Gio's voice sounded from behind Janus.
"After all this, Janus, are you still such a womanly person?"
"Boss Gio?" Janus turned around and saw Gio actually appearing behind him, "Why are you here?"
"I still wasn't worried about you, so I followed you." Gio explained, "It seems my worry was right."
When Gio said this, his eyes also glanced at Floyd.
"Sir Gio..." Floyd glanced at Gio and finally closed his eyes forever.
"Floyd!" Seeing his loyal subordinate die on the spot, Janus was also heartbroken.
"Okay, Janus, now is not the time to be sad." Gio said coldly.
"Then what should I do?"
"Do what you should do, avenge your lieutenant."
"Revenge?" Janus stood up slowly, his attention once again looking at the boy who had just plotted against Floyd.
The boy's eyes were full of fear, and his hands were trembling.
"But, he is just a child!" Janus couldn't help but said.
"Child? If the poisonous weed is not removed, it will become an insurmountable thorn in a few years. Janus, haven't you understood this truth after so many years?" Gio scolded loudly.
"Later I realized that Boss Gio had no inner demons about the 'Ghost Sea', and that group of pirates had no chance of winning. So this mission was just a personal test for me." Janus shook his head.
road.
"Then did you kill them in the end?" Situ Yuner asked.
The young man in front of them now, Janus, had slowly raised the sword in his hand.
At the same time, the surrounding soldiers were also watching Janus.
As soon as Janus takes action, they will swarm in and kill those people.
However, Janus' long sword did not change for a long time, and he fell into a trance during the battle between heaven and man.
At this moment, the "Mayflower" pirate leader who changed his life appeared in front of him again.
I saw that the pirate leader turned into a giant, roared and rushed towards Janus.
"You're not dead yet?" Janus shouted and waved out a sword energy.
The shadow of the pirate leader disappeared in an instant, and reappeared in front of Janus. It was the pirate boy who had just killed Floyd.
This poor young man, whose chest was pierced by the sword energy, looked directly at Janus, and soon lost the luster of his life.
"My child, my child!" A woman ran over and held the lifeless child in her arms.
She looked at Janus with hateful eyes. Although she didn't say a word, her look was like a short blade that cut into Janus's heart.
With Janus taking the lead, the soldiers of the "Ghost Fleet" no longer had any scruples. They rushed forward one after another and massacred the orphans of the pirates.
After that battle, the surrounding sea area was also dyed red with blood.
"Boss Gio, why do you want me to go?" Janus looked at Gio very dissatisfied.
"Janus, you are good at everything, but you are too naive. You can be so merciful even to enemies who have a blood feud with you. This is very detrimental to the future of our 'Ghost Fleet'!"
"I'm not a war maniac to begin with, why do you want to involve me in this?"
"In any case, there is no turning back for you now. From today on, you, like me, are stained with the blood of civilians."
After Gio finished speaking, he left the venue minding his own business.
At that time, Janus was kneeling on the ground, and for a moment he didn't know how to hold himself.
"At that moment, I didn't know whether I was bewitched by the inner demon or what the reason was. That child looked exactly like the pirate leader in front of me." Janus said sadly, "In any case, I still killed the child.
"
"Janus, do you know that the third level of 'Ghost Dou Qi' can confuse people's hearts?" Situ Yuner said.
"You mean, Boss Gio has manipulated my thinking?" Janus's face changed, "Teacher Situ, even if it is you, if you slander Boss Gio, I will not let you off lightly."
"Janus, don't forget. I'm not the real Situ Yuner, I'm just a memory created by your heart. It's you who really doubts Gio!" Situ Yuner said calmly.
"What? Me?"
At that moment, Janus also stood stunned on the spot.
At this time, another majestic voice sounded in Janus's ears.
"Whether you admit it or not, the facts are before you." A black shadow appeared in front of Janus.
"Is it really Boss Gio?"
"You already have the answer in your heart, don't you?" Black Shadow echoed from the side.
"Impossible? You're talking nonsense! It's absolutely impossible!" Janus scolded loudly.
