The boy's steps quickened with each thud, his expression grew more determined, and finally, he began to run!
The girl suddenly raised her hand and quickly reminded her.
"Wait, I used to do that too..."
Perhaps interrupted by the boy, or perhaps the girl still held a sliver of hope that the boy would succeed, her voice abruptly stopped.
"If I can succeed, I'll beg them to come and save you!" the boy shouted as he finished speaking, then ran off without looking back.
Soon, the boy's figure disappeared into the woods.
At this moment, several pirates, hearing the commotion, rushed over and gasped in surprise at the scene before them.
"Grandpa Asio!"
【"What's the matter?!"】
[“Bang!”]
[Asceo's previously limp hands clenched instantly, he violently slammed the iron box off his body, stood up, his face grim, and roared with chilling murderous intent.]
"Grab that kid!!"
……
"This is a conspiracy, isn't it?" Cao Yanbing in the Soul Town world.
"Although I hate to admit it, that's probably how it is." — Xu San, Under One Person World
"Damn it, even though this acting is only good enough to fool kids, it's still incredibly shameless to actually use it to fool them." — Morgana, Super God Academy World
"There are too many flaws. Putting aside how she knew the boy ran away if she was unconscious, if she wasn't unconscious, she could have gotten up then and there was no need to wait for the other pirates to arrive. I think the little girl's silence at the end might have been because she sensed something. Indeed, people are most easily deceived in the face of hope." - Red-Eyed Hero World, Evil Wolf.
"Weakness is the original sin!" - Doflamingo in the One Piece world.
……
On the city wall's sentry post, a guard was looking around.
Suddenly, one of the guards seemed to notice something.
"Hey, there's something going on."
While reminding the others, he quickly grabbed his binoculars and started looking.
Through the binoculars, a boy could be seen walking with difficulty, clearly exhausted, and the shackles on his feet were conspicuously visible.
In the shadows, a hand slowly moved to the trigger.
"Bang bang bang!"
Several bullets suddenly came from behind the boy, striking the ground around him one by one.
[Faced with the sudden gunshot, the boy's expression changed drastically. Ignoring his exhaustion, he forced himself to continue running.]
【"Ha~"】
[Asceo stood on the treetop, sneering, "Traitors are meant to be tortured like this!"]
[“Hehehe~”]
【"That's right. *2"】
The other pirates looked at the boy and echoed his sentiments.
"Catch that brat alive!"
[Asio pushed off with both feet, his body rapidly falling from the treetop, shouting loudly.]
Hearing the sound behind him, the boy's face showed even greater terror, and he ran for his life.
The city, which he could usually see just by looking up, now seemed so distant; the dense forests stood like insurmountable chasms, obscuring his bright future!
However, how could a child's body, confined by shackles, possibly compare to the robust physique of the pirates?
"Run faster, you brat!"
A tall pirate watched the boy's retreating figure, strolling leisurely along. He was afraid he might outrun the boy, and couldn't help but sneer.
"Almost there, keep going!"
The boy could no longer hear the pirates behind him. His body leaned forward, almost to the point of falling. If it weren't for his willpower compelling his legs to keep moving forward, he probably would have collapsed long ago.
Gazing at the city gate so close at hand, the boy felt himself getting closer and closer to hope!
However, Asio behind him calmly raised his gun.
【"Bang!!"】
A heavy gunshot rang out through the woods!
[“Bang!”]
The treetop above the boy's head was suddenly snapped off by a bullet and plummeted down, hitting the boy's feet as he ran.
【"ah!"】
The boy groaned in pain as he tripped over a falling tree branch.
[His exhausted body suffered a severe blow, and the boy's last breath of willpower snapped like a taut string.]
"If we had just gone there, we could have saved so many people. We were so close!"
The boy was unwilling to give up. He knew there was no hope left; the pirates must be right behind him. But he truly didn't want to give up, so he continued to crawl forward with great difficulty. He looked at the city so close at hand, and at the dense forest he was about to emerge from. A difference of just a few meters separated two worlds.
["Grandpa Asio said, 'Do you want to be a hero too? Huh?'"]
At this moment, Asio had already arrived behind the little boy and stomped hard on his shin.
【"Um!"】
The boy screamed in excruciating pain, his body trembling uncontrollably.
He finally lost all motivation to move forward.
[Asceo slowly raised the gun in his hand, pointing it at the boy's head, his index finger rubbing the trigger as he grinned maliciously.]
"Stop dreaming."
【"boom!"】
A loud and clear gunshot suddenly rang out!
Chapter 17 The Pirates' Plot
The pistol was knocked away, spinning in the air and tracing an arc.
【"ah!!"】
[Asio clutched his gun-wielding hand; the powerful impact of the shot had caused injury, and a piercing scream suddenly echoed through the sky.]
The boy seized the opportunity to continue crawling forward. Although he lacked strength, what sustained him now was boundless hope!
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
[Then several more gunshots rang out, halting the pirates' pursuit!]
"A doctor from ancient times!"
The guard on the outpost, seeing the elderly man appear, realized it was the other man who had fired the shot and quickly said...
"That child's origins are unknown, and we're running low on ammunition. Using it in a situation like this..."
The guard's intention was clear, but Dr. Gu shook his head and continued firing, providing cover for the boy's advance.
【"Da da da da da da!"】
The only response to the guards was the gunfire from the doctors of Kulai!
"What's the difference between someone who sacrifices others for their own benefit and a pirate?"
The guard lowered his head somewhat helplessly, but said nothing more. He knew that was how the ancient doctor was.
The doctor looked at the boy and resolutely said, "Put down the rope."
【"oh!"】
Having decided to do it, the guard stopped talking and ran to the side to find a rope.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
The doctor continued firing to cover the boy's advance.
【The other side.】
"Danger, danger!"
The parrot on Asio's head squawked in terror.
"That brat!"
A pirate glared at the boy being pulled up by the rope and roared angrily.
【Da da da da da da!!】
The remaining guards also began firing to suppress the attack, ensuring the boy would not be attacked as he was pulled up by the rope.
"If we delay any longer, the guards will all be drawn here," another pirate hurriedly said.
"These reckless bastards!"
As he spoke, Ashio kept his head down, making his expression impossible to read, before leading the remaining pirates away.
【“Hey~”】
As the pirates departed, the doctor from Gulai pulled the boy up.
Suddenly, the boy grabbed the doctor's hand and roared with all his might.
【"spy!"】
【"What?!"】
The ancient doctor was startled.
Before the boy had fully climbed up, he leaned against the wall of the watchtower and quickly spoke.
"There are pirate spies in the city."
Upon hearing this, the brown-haired guard's expression changed drastically, and he quickly turned to give the order.
"Immediately identify everyone at the sentry post!"
【"good!"】
The blue-haired guard nodded in agreement and immediately set to work.
"Whoosh~ whoosh~ whoosh~..."
The boy was leaning against the fence, panting heavily.
【"you……"】
The doctor leaned down to look at the boy, smiling gently as he spoke softly.
"Did they risk their lives to save everyone?"
……
"This doctor from ancient times looks so gentle." Bennett in the Genshin Impact world.
"He's indeed gentle, and not only that, he's also incredibly steady with his sniper rifle. He must have been a good man when he was young." Alice, Resident Evil world.
"Unfortunately, this city probably won't last much longer, will it?" Ren Xiaosu, First Sequence World.
"The pirates keep coming in, and according to them, they're probably running out of ammunition and food soon, right?" Chu Yunfei, from the world of Bright Sword.
"Moreover, the entry of the second-generation Milon into the city was part of Ashio's conspiracy." —Kavi, Genshin Impact world.
"We don't know what Ashio's plan is right now, but it can only be implemented if the second-generation Milon enters the city. I'm afraid the key to breaking through the city lies with the second-generation Milon." Yu Wenzhou, The King's Avatar World.
"If I were Ashio, I would likely make contact with the second-generation Milon through some clandestine means, and then threaten him with the lives of other people to make the second-generation Milon become the 'undercover agent' he himself claims to be." — Yu Wenzhou, The King's Avatar World.
"No way, the second-generation Milon isn't brain-damaged, why would he believe pirates? He should ask Dr. Gu Lai for help." - Zhang Chulan, Under One Person World.
"Because of his early capture and long-term brainwashing, we can't apply the same thinking to the second-generation Milon. If, in the eyes of the second-generation Milon, the power of pirates is almost invincible, then a simple threat can bring the most favorable result." — Yu Wenzhou, The King's Avatar World.
