Chapter 320 Pearl-colored sails are invaded by black mist
Hydra Rattlesnake Tavern.
With a cold expression, Miss Fortune closed the magazine of the pistol and placed them side by side next to the dagger on the table.
Frantic bells and screaming sirens echoed in the city below.
She knows exactly what it stands for.
Soul-eating night!
Miss Fortune paid no attention to the coming storm.
All the windows of the tavern are wide open, defying the coming shadow of death.
The whining sea breeze blows against my face with the hunger and thirst of evil spirits and the biting cold.
Miss Fortune saw countless people screaming on the many docks in Bilgewater Bay.
They left the docks and docks in fear and panic, ran into the city, and escaped through the twists and turns of the streets.
Both men and women, young and old, all ran for their lives without looking back. Some unlucky people stumbled into the water and were ignored.
In the buildings near the shore and pier, there was a series of sounds of closing windows and doors.
The houses where these people live are hung with strange signs, like patterns woven by tentacles, with thick white powder sprinkled on them.
They are devout followers of Naga Kapoulos.
Miss Fortune looked at the black mist that had landed on the island, and couldn't help but think of Illaoi's words.
She touched the pendant around her neck.
The touch of coral is warm.
Although she didn't really believe what it represented, it was undoubtedly a beautiful gadget.
The door behind her opened quietly, and Miss Fortune also let go of the pendant in her hand.
She knew who it was without turning around, or that there was only one person who dared to enter the house without knocking.
“What are you doing?”
Leaven walked in and saw the wide open window, his expression solemn.
"What do you think I'm doing?"
Miss Fortune seemed to have grabbed some inspiration, stared at the black fog close at hand, and whispered softly.
"I think you are doing something stupid, very stupid." Raven said solemnly.
“Something stupid?”
Miss Fortune placed her hands on the table, her scarlet hair falling down, blocking her vision.
"We paid a price of blood to depose Gangplank. I will never let Soul Eclipse be like this."
"Just what?" Raven asked.
"Take Bilgewater out of my hand."
Miss Fortune suddenly grabbed her pistol and inserted it into the holster on her lower back.
“You can’t stop me either.”
“We are not here to stop you.” Raven said with a smile.
After hearing this, Miss Fortune turned around and saw Raven standing in front of the door, with a group of his most capable men behind her.
They waited in the vestibule, armed with muskets, revolvers, clanging home-made fragmentation bombs, and machetes.
There are so many types of weapons, it's like you just ransacked a museum.
"It seems that what you are going to do is not very smart."
"Yes."
Raven walked to the window and looked into the thick black fog .
"Do you think we'll let our captain face it alone?"
"I almost died trying to depose Gangplank, and it's not over yet. I don't expect you to follow me, At least not tonight."
Miss Fortune walked to stand in front of her men, her hands resting on the walnut handle of her pistol.
“This battle has nothing to do with you, it is my trial.”
“It’s nonsense, of course it has something to do with it.”
Raven turned around and stood behind Miss Fortune with a sword in hand.
"There is a 100% chance that we will not see the morning sun."
Miss Fortune spoke softly, a smile forming on her crimson lips.
“Captain, this is not the first time we have experienced the Soul-eating Night.”
Raven slapped the skull on the top of the sword hilt: “This will definitely not be the last time. ”
Although it is different from the previous avoidance of the soul-eating night, this time we have to defeat the ghosts and undead in the black fog.
But he is still fearless.
“It’s time for us to get on the ship!”
Miss Fortune walked out of the tavern confidently, facing the night, and came to the Siren docked nearby.
The cold sea breeze is like an angry child, blowing the huge pearl-colored sails and making bursts of sounds.
The carefully carved woodwork exudes a luxurious and neat image, like a captain about to board a ship.
Miss Fortune was the first to board the ship and arrived at the bow. Behind her, Haiwen and her men quickly got into position.
In just a moment, cannons were pushed onto the deck one after another, and there was a giant double-barreled turret at the stern of the ship, aiming at the black mist from a distance. Black mist swept across, covering less than half of Bilgewater.
The originally ordinary tavern had been cleaned up and turned into a temporary fighting position before the black mist eroded it.
The soldiers guarding Leiser stood in their respective positions in an orderly manner according to the deployment of the previous drill.
They stared at the black fog outside the window, their palms were filled with sweat, and their weapons were stained.
Huo Jixing came to the back of the stacked walls on top of the tavern and looked at the black mist surging in front of him.
When the first wisp of black mist approached the tavern, Yosip looked cold and roared angrily.
“Attack!”
puff! puff! puff! puff!
With the sound of burning flames.
The arrows in the hands of the Leser Legion soldiers quickly ignited, and the scorching flames jumped on the arrows.
They bent their bows and set arrows, staring at the black mist with cold eyes.
The bow string was loosened, and the flaming arrows flew straight towards the black mist with blazing light.
All of a sudden!
The dark night sky seems to be blooming with sparks, beautiful and dangerous.
However, Black Mist seemed not to care about these flaming arrows at all, letting them fall.
As soon as the crackling sound of flames sounded, it immediately disappeared without a trace, and the flames were also destroyed.
The black mist is still moving forward slowly, covering the nearby streets and buildings.
When Yosip saw this, his expression remained unchanged and he softly recited a spell.
As the spell fell, a huge ice blue arrow gradually appeared in front of him.
A freezing coldness swept over me, and fine ice shards climbed up the walls, faintly freezing the air.
“Go!”
Josip shouted softly.
The fist-sized ice arrows shot through the air, rushing straight into the black mist with strong cold air, leaving an icy blue trail along the way.
As soon as they entered the black mist, the ice arrows exploded to pieces, and the pervasive cold air condensed the surrounding black mist, creating a blue wall.
Looking from a distance, this wall is made of pure black mist and cold air. It is both strong and cold, giving people an indescribable sense of oppression.
Josip breathed a sigh of relief and turned his eyes to his masterpiece, with a look of satisfaction in his eyes.
Not even waiting for him to smile.
Click! Click! Click!
A sharp breaking sound came, breaking the tranquility of the tavern.
The seemingly solid blue wall seemed to have been struck by a terrible force and shattered into pieces.
The black mist surged out and continued to move forward.
Josip's expression changed suddenly, and he didn't expect that his attack would have no effect.
In just such a short time, the black mist was approaching the tavern, less than a foot away.
This allowed Yosip to clearly feel the icy chill in the air.
The blood in his body seemed to be frozen, and the biting chill penetrated his soul.
The soldiers of the Reiser Guard Corps in the tavern were also similar.
Their bodies began to tremble unconsciously, and the weapons they clenched in their hands and the armor they wore could not provide any sense of security.
But Drizzt and Graves were much better.
Facing the billowing black fog, they looked slightly worried, feeling the constant chill in the air, and were ready to take action at any time.
However, when they saw Huo Jixing, who remained motionless, they immediately suppressed their inner impulses.
Clang!
In a daze, Yosip seemed to hear a crisp chirp.
The sound was like metal clashing and vibrating strings. It instantly penetrated the surrounding silence and echoed in everyone's heart.
At the same time, a warm and burning feeling suddenly appeared, filling Yosip's whole body.
The warmth was like the spring sunshine, instantly melting away the biting chill in his body.
The soldiers guarding Leise also felt the warmth.
Their bodies recovered, and the muscles that had been stiff due to the cold became flexible and strong again.
Yosip came back to his senses and stared at the black fog in front of him.
The black fog that was originally moving forward seemed to have encountered some resistance and could no longer move forward.
It was Lord Huo Jixing who took action. Yosip thought to himself.
He looked at the tavern as the center, and there was no black mist within a one-foot radius that could come close.
Once within range, the black mist disappears like a moth to a flame.
Drizzt's eyes narrowed and he was keenly aware of the strangeness in the air.
He saw many lines outlined by flames intertwined in the air, surrounding the tavern.
The movement here quickly attracted the attention of some beings in the black mist.
