Chapter 307: A Crushing Naval Battle
Offshore, the weather was calm and the sky was clear.
The blue sea has slight waves, which is very beautiful in the afternoon sun.
But the atmosphere at the scene was a bit serious.
A ketch has lowered its sails and is waiting for another smaller ship not far away to approach.
Woo~
This much smaller sailboat was very fast. Its arc-shaped hull cut through the sea and raised white waves, and it quickly approached the [Mermaid].
Everyone on the [Mermaid] clenched their weapons and held their breath, waiting for the enemy to approach.
At this moment, I have heard about the evil reputation of pirates on the sea from other places. Is it finally the first time to fight?
Many sailors who boarded the ship for the first time clenched their teeth and sweated slightly in their clenched hands.
"Brothers, prepare to fight!"
Captain Roland shouted loudly, inspiring everyone's morale:
"Mr. Li Si said, the opponent is much weaker than us, don't be timid, Call me back."
"Kill an enemy and get a gold coin! The stronger one will get more rewards!"
"Everyone will be rewarded with five gold coins! Damn, get ready! Don’t blame me for not giving you face if you’re holding back at this time!”
With Luo Lun's assurance, I don't know whether it was the confidence brought by the mysterious Master Li Si or the courage inspired by the heavy reward, the atmosphere on the entire ship suddenly became more solemn and solemn.
Standing high up, Li Si gently tapped the hull of the ship under his feet with his staff.
A faint blue light covered the entire hull and then disappeared.
Temporarily strengthening the ship's defense with water elemental protection spells, Li Si once again turned his attention to the increasingly approaching pirate ship.
Hu~
bite! bite! Ding.
The two ships passed each other, as if starting guns were fired. Countless claw hooks were thrown from the two ships and hooked to the opposite side, and crisp sounds kept ringing.
The sailor grabbed the rope connected to the grappling hook and exerted force. With this combined force, the two ships tilted slightly and continued to approach each other.
At the same time, bows, arrows, and spears flew towards each other, and many people were injured in an instant.
“Ah~”
"Kill!"
"Get in!"
"Fuck him!"
At this moment, everyone on the boat released the emotions they had accumulated during the waiting process. , roaring and attacking the opponent.
The people on the other side's pirate ship were more proactive. Many people jumped directly onto the [Mermaid] along the hook lock.
"You're a rookie pirate~"
Li Si said with some emotion as he looked at the pirate ship that was about to get stuck with the [Mermaid] and the pirates rushing over.
This is really stupid. Li Si has never seen many such reckless boat operations in his previous life.
You know, pirates have their own reasons for choosing targets to attack.
Although pirates are all desperadoes, people with their heads on their pants, they don’t want to die in vain.
Normally, after selecting a target merchant ship, the pirates will first rely on their excellent maneuverability to move closer, and conduct several mid-range test attacks to see the strength of the merchant ship's resistance.
If the resistance is not fierce and within the capabilities of the pirate ship, the pirate ship will choose to operate by the ship, otherwise it will decisively turn around and leave.
Otherwise, if you rush up casually, it would be embarrassing if you fail to defeat him.
If the pirate ship gives up the attack, the merchant ship will not pursue it but will watch the other party leave.
For merchant ships, there is no benefit in fighting pirates. It is better to do less than to do more.
Of course, there will also be black merchants who will "eat" other merchant ships, but that is another story.
What? You ask, what should I do if I can’t catch up and can’t achieve the first step of the operation?
Cool! Just give up, what else can you do?
Because most pirate ships choose to give up stability and pursue speed, they can't catch up. This means that the ship is really far worse and can't catch up, so it's better to go to sleep.
But not many lunatics would abandon the ship and chase alone on the sea.
It looked like the leader rushing over was a silver-level strongman, who should be the leader of the opponent.
Lauren and Aivar also left Li Si's side and quickly rushed toward the silver-level professional below.
Li Si looked at the chaos below. In an instant, many casualties appeared, and blood was thrown in the air.
Although he had no intention of taking action, Li Si also had no intention of watching.
Added [Spiritual Armor Technique] to the sailors on his own ship, which is enough to greatly increase the chances of those bronze-level and ordinary sailors to save their lives.
Li Si is not a nanny. Although there are mission requirements, this is enough.
There is no way to fight without bloodshed and injuries. It’s good to survive.
After this sea battle, these people will probably be much better at dealing with the same pirates.
Li Si would not be so relieved if the opposite side was not full of rookie pirates.
To be honest, Li Si has seen many people fall down due to the shaking of the ship collision, which is really eye-catching.
As for the Silver-level pirates on the opposite side, each of them is surrounded by two Silver-level professionals of their own, and there is no possibility of turning around.
Only the pirate captain is stronger and can maintain the situation under the siege of Loren and Eivar, but the others are already in danger.
Tsk, tsk, crush the game!
Li Si shook his head and sighed.
Damn it!
How could he be so strong!
Jackson suddenly exerted force and hit Luo Lun's sword hard with the long knife in his hand, knocking him back two steps.
Feeling the soreness in his arm, Jackson felt that he might be cold today.
How could this happen?
It is obviously just an ordinary merchant ship, why are there so many silver-level professionals?
By employing so many people, don’t you make any money?
Jackson was filled with grief and anger, and wanted to return to the [Manatee], but was unable to move under Eivar's attack.
Seeing that one of his silver monks was seriously injured, and that the silver warrior Ross was also in critical condition, he felt very anxious.
Especially, the minions of our own were almost killed by the opponent's people like chopping melons and vegetables, and the most seriously injured ones on the opponent's side were only seriously injured, not even dead.
Jackson felt like he was going to collapse.
What's going on?
Is it so difficult to rob merchant ships now?
Are those seniors trying to fool me?
Bazel? Where's Bazel!
Suddenly realizing that one of his subordinates was missing, Jackson became angry.
Wo Gan, if you still fish for fish at this time, you don’t want to live anymore!
"Bazel, damn it, do it now!"
"I xxxxxxx"
Jackson no longer had the good temper before, and cursed angrily, Unfortunately, no matter how much he cursed, he never saw the silver assassin.
Jackson's curses were naturally heard by Li Si, who was watching the show above.
He suddenly realized it at this time.
Yes, I clearly detected four silver-level people before, why are there only three people taking action now?
Li Si did not suspect that this was a strategy or a smoke bomb.
To be honest, they didn’t have the brains to do the stupid operation before.
What about this person?
Li Si suddenly became interested.
Because after he used the detection spell again, the result turned out to be that there were only three silver levels in front of him.
Interesting!
Li Si naturally would not suspect that there was something wrong with his previous investigation.
To be honest, he still remembers the fourth silver-level breath. It should be the "Bazel" mentioned by the pirate below. In other words, this Bazel has the ability to detect spells from himself.
Even if he is the assassin with the strongest hiding ability, that is amazing.
And. Bazel
It would be even more interesting if it was the person Li Si guessed!
Li Si's figure gradually disappeared and moved toward the pirate ship opposite.
Anyway, the situation on the battlefield has been decided. This pirate ship can't make any splash under the crushing force of its absolute strength, and there is no need for Li Si to stay here anymore.
Bazel was hiding in the shadows at this time, carefully hiding his figure.
He is still very confident in his ability to sneak and hide his aura.
This is an ability he learned from his father, and it has helped him survive many dangers.
Staying quietly in the darkness, Bazel could still feel the killing sounds and faint vibrations coming from above his head.
When the two ships connected and the conflict broke out, Bazel's sense of crisis suddenly erupted. His extreme sense of survival made him without any hesitation, and he immediately entered a stealth state and found a safe place to stay.
He plans to wait here until the battle is over, and then sneak around.
Although this is above the sea, Bazel is still confident that he can survive.
"ε=(ο｀*))) Alas, Boss Jackson, don’t blame me for running away, the enemy is really too powerful."
Bazel sighed with emotion, feeling a little guilty in his heart, After all, no matter what, Jackson was very kind to him after he got on the ship.
But between guilt and survival, Bazel didn't hesitate at all.
He boasted to his father that he wanted to make a name for himself in Haikou and bring a beautiful wife back to his hometown!
I didn’t expect the outside world to be so dangerous!
Obviously he is already a silver-level assassin, and he is considered quite good among mercenaries, but nothing ever goes as planned.
Working as a mercenary, the mercenary team formed a team was killed except for him while exploring the dungeon.
As a guard, the traveling trader team he was following was directly attacked by an evil dragon, but he survived.
The third time, he chose to be a pirate.
Now it seems that he is probably the only one in the entire pirate ship who has survived.
He now doubts whether he has the physique of an unlucky person, and the people who team up with him will not end well.
ε=(ο｀*)))Oh, is it because I am too handsome?
With his heart full of complaints, Bazel can't do anything now and can only stay here honestly.
However, he always felt uneasy in his heart.
Could something else go wrong?
Huddled in the shadows, Bazel touched his chin, a little confused.
“Good guy, I said why can’t I find him? It turns out he is hiding on our boat.”
A voice suddenly reached Bazel's ears. His body trembled and he quickly dodged away from the shadows.
Grabbing a sharp black dagger, Bazel looked in the direction of the sound in shock.
A young man was standing not far away, looking at him with a smile.
Even Bazel had to admit that this young man was a little more handsome than him.
The young man smiled and said:
"I also asked why I couldn't find you on your ship. It turned out that you were hiding in the warehouse on our ship."
"You are very capable!"
Yes, Li Si After discovering that a silver-level professional was missing and hearing that the missing person was called "Bazel", he took it to heart.
He carefully searched around the [Manatee], but did not find any trace of Bazel.
Where can he go on the sea?
Unwilling to give up, Li Si searched carefully on the Mermaid and finally found something wrong with the shadow in the storage room.
As expected, it was Bazel who was hiding.
The first time he saw Bazel, Li Si confirmed his guess.
Although he looks much younger and his temperament is not as calm as he later became, he is unintentionally the future golden pirate [Cowardly Bazel].
This guy is also quite famous. He is the first mate of the [Blood Whale Pirate Group], and he is also a very strange person.
Yes!
This is the power that Helen will establish in the future!
This guy is Helen's top subordinate and the only gold-level pirate besides her.
What a fate! It’s so wonderful!
Li Si is also quite familiar with this guy, and of course he knows his peculiarities.
"Who are you?"
Bazel held the dagger tightly and asked pretending to be vicious.
“Stop pretending!”
Li Si didn’t care at all. Who could you scare with your frustrated expression?
“I found you, where do you want to run to?”
It was obvious that this Bazel was an elite level figure.
Although his strength has not fully grown yet, we can still see that he is extraordinary.
Being able to evade Li Si's detection, this Bazel has a very high ability in stealth and aura concealment, and his affinity with the shadow plane is no weaker than the current Li Si's.
A proper future BOSS panel!
Seeing that he could not bluff Li Si, Bazel’s expression changed and he said pitifully:
"Brother, please let me go."
Before he finished speaking, a cold light suddenly appeared and struck Li Si's body.
“Ouch!”
Li Si reacted quickly and dodged Bazel’s violent attack.
In other words, he has been guarding against Bazel.
If anyone really believed in Bazel's name, he really didn't know how he would die.
As a gold-level pirate, how could he be a simple person.
Bazel held the dagger behind his back and stopped in place with some surprise.
He did not expect that Li Si, who seemed to be a spell caster, was so fast. It was obvious that he did not use skills but relied solely on his physical ability to avoid his attack.
Damn it, what dad taught you doesn’t work, does it?
Bazel thought so in his mind, but did not stop attacking.
With a backhand wave, several black lights struck Li Si at a faster speed.
The white magic light in Li Si's hand flashed, the fourth-ring spell [Powerful Deflection Field]!
Ding ding ding!
When several long needle-shaped hidden weapons approached Li Si's body, they suddenly deflected and hit the iron box beside them, sparking with sparks.
Seeing that the hidden weapon had no effect, Bazel's body suddenly disappeared in front of Li Si's eyes, but Li Si knew clearly that he did not leave, but hid in the dark, preparing to give him a hard blow.
This is in the cabin. The space is relatively narrow and limited, which is just suitable for the assassin's fighting style, but not suitable for the expansion of the mage.
"That~"
The smile on Li Si's face did not diminish, and he took out a dagger from the storage ring.
Now you can stretch your muscles!
