Chapter 44 - Intruders 2

Dan, the navy soldier, had successfully infiltrated the base of the Dark Pirates....

He had disguised himself as a newly recruited pirate, complete with a black bandana and a black patch.

He had even learned a few key phrases in their language to blend in with the other pirates....

It had taken him hard preparation and practice, but he was finally ready to gather the information he needed...

...

The base was bustling with activity as the pirates went about their daily routines....

Dan tried to blend in as much as possible, keeping his head down and avoiding eye contact with anyone who looked too closely at him. He was nervous, but he knew that he couldn't let his fear show...

He had a mission to complete.

As he wandered through the base, Dan listened carefully for any mention of the Dark Pirates' so-called "dark magic."

It was rumored that they had the ability to control the nature and conjure lighting and heavenly fire at will, and the navy was determined to discover the truth behind these rumors....

After several hours of eavesdropping and casual conversation, Dan overheard a group of pirates discussing a strange ritual that was set to take place that evening....They spoke of chanting and sacrifices, and Dan knew that he had stumbled upon something important....

He spent the rest of the day gathering as much information as he could, careful not to draw attention to himself....

When night fell, he slipped away from the main base and followed the group of pirates to a secluded beach....

There, he watched as they began to chant and perform the ritual....

As he watched, Dan couldn't help but feel a twinge of fear....

The ritual was unlike anything he had ever seen before, and he couldn't shake the feeling that something truly sinister was at work... But he knew that he couldn't let his emotions get the best of him...

He had a job to do...

Dan continued to watch and take notes as the ritual progressed.

When it was finally over, he slipped away unnoticed and returned to his room....

He had all the information he needed, and he knew that the navy would be able to use it to stop the Dark Pirates once and for all....

"Finally I got what I came here for...I thought it would be difficult but I got it done in a day."

"I guess I'm pretty talented, now my promotion is confirmed. But I think I should stay here for a few more days to see what other secrets are there."

Dan was laughing, he was alone in the room so he thought that nobody is watching him...

he was feeling good...

because he 'THOUGHT' he knew the secret of the dark pirates, he remembered it correctly....

so that navy could use this too...

.

.

The next morning he went back to his work.

The SPYING....

He got up early in the morning, the rest of the pirates were sleeping in his room.

He thought that pirates do not get up early, although it was written in the rules to get up early, but he thought...

"They are just illiterate pirates since when did they start following the rules"

After laughing a bit he got up and came out...

...

"No matter how illiterate these people may be, but they have built a good fort....at least for their level...hahaha"

he chuckled again...and started to observe his surroundings...

He decided to go to every corner of the fort first....

He first went to the right from his room...

Since the fort was round, so no matter which way you go, you will come back.

After walking for some time, he found that there are enough rooms for pirates to stay here. 5 to 6 people were staying in one room.

But to his surprise everyone was asleep...

He found it a bit strange but he ignored it because everyone knew how wild pirates are....

After walking for some more time, he reached the storage room.

there was food stock and other grocerie

He didn't pay much attention and went ahead....

...

The Fort is a circular structure that surrounds an open central space...

It typically has high walls or ramparts made of stone and brick, which enclose the empty area within....

At the center of the fort, there is a tall clock tower, which serves as a prominent landmark and helps trainees keep track of time...

The fort is accessed by a street or walkway that runs along the inner perimeter of the wall. On one side of this street are rooms, which are used for various purposes such as training, living quarters, storage, or administration....

These wall of the rooms are made of wood to divide them.

just like a morden building.

main walls are made by stone, or other materials, and have windows or balconies facing the outer space...

On the other side of the street, there is an open view of the sky and the central space, which is often used for outdoor training or recreation....

This area is covered in grass, sand, and can accommodate various activities such as sports, drills, or ceremonies....

Overall, the fort has a distinctive and imposing appearance, with its circular shape and high walls

It creates a sense of security and privacy, while also offering a spacious and flexible environment for training and other activities.

...

Dan was roaming around the fort and was looking everywhere in the hope that he might find something useful....

sure enough....he found the armory.

He looked around to see if anyone was there, but there was no one there as if the fort was empty.

he decided to enter without thinking much...

When he reached inside, he saw that many types of weapons were kept there.

Many swords were kept on one side....

In the other corner there were many spears, maces and other types of weapons...

He looked around in the hope that he might find a long-range weapon like a bow or a large crossbow, but there was nothing....

he frowned....

"why isn't here any long range weapon?...i guess they are only depending on the black magic"

Saying this he was about to leave

but he stopped because he saw something jaw dropping....

he went to the corner where the stuff was kept...

his eyes were wide open during whole time....
