Chapter 586 Herding Effect
These crystal ships are not big, far from the level of large-scale ships. They are about ten meters long and three or four meters wide. They are similar to longer boats, with tilted The bow shows an elegant arc, fully displaying the aesthetics of the elf.
But I don’t know how it was originally designed. The side of the ship is four to five meters high, and there is no gangway or anything like that nearby.
It is not difficult to slide down from a height of four to five meters, but it is not easy to climb up. Especially these boats are made of crystal and will slip when you stand on them, let alone climb on them.
This requires some other methods to get up quickly.
Nemea was lucky. She was very flexible. She stepped on Zola's shoulders and jumped hard. She stretched out her hands and grabbed the side of the boat. She climbed up in two seconds. Then she immediately untied the hemp rope hanging on her backpack and pulled one end of it. It was tied to the mast and one end hung down along the side of the ship.
While tying the rope, Zora threw two more fire attacks, forcing back the approaching spider and wild bear mercenaries.
When it was Aldai's turn to get on board, it was very difficult. Don't expect a mage whose heaviest thing was just a staff to have strong physical abilities. The side of the ship was four to five meters high. Aldai followed it. The rope hanging down from Nemea climbed up and slid down a section after climbing a few times. That was really not good at it. If it weren't for maintaining a large barrier, Aldai would have used the flying technique long ago.
In the end, it was Zola who dragged Aldai's butt and threw her up hard. Aldai grabbed the rope and was thrown on the deck of the crystal ship like a yo-yo.
Zola, who was the last to stay, showed his Holy Emblem to the surrounding mercenaries. The roaring flames spurted out like a gust of wind, and the loud rumble sounded like a train roaring past the dock.
This is Fire Storm, which is a very powerful magic. Using this move will consume a lot of magic power.
In terms of blue bars, Zola is definitely not as good as Aldai. She is almost out of blue after this round.
After Aldai went up, there was no longer any protection from the large barrier spell, so Zola had to leave as soon as possible.
She slashed at the crystal chain with her sword. The blade made of dark fine gold was indestructible, and the chain snapped with a sound.
"Now, let's sail!"
Then Zola grabbed the rope hanging down from Nemea, twisted it twice in his hand, and jumped on the crystal floor of the dock like a swing.
Aldai, who was slapped on the deck, shook her dizzy head, and just in time to hear Zola's voice, she immediately took out a scroll from the magic bag and tore it open.
Strong winds appeared out of thin air, blowing up the sails, and the crystal ship docked on the shore and rising and falling with the waves slowly sailed away from the port driven by the wind.
This timing was just right. The wild bear mercenaries chasing Zola couldn't continue to chase, because the end of the pier was in front of them. At the nearest moment, Zora, who was hanging on the side of the ship, could feel the mercenaries. The blade of his sword was only an inch away from the soles of his feet.
Holding the sword in his backhand, he fired the arrows with clang, and the hull of the crystal ship obviously turned sideways. Nemea should be controlling the rudder.
The tilted hull acted like a shield to help Zola block subsequent arrows, and she took the opportunity to quickly grab the rope and climb up.
"I can't believe we actually rushed over!"
Nemea is a member of the reconnaissance team and usually does not participate in frontal battlefields. This is the first time for her to be so excited. Although it is thrilling, she seems particularly excited now.
This should be caused by excessive secretion of adrenaline. Once the energy wears off, it’s time to get scared.
But Zola is very experienced in this area. If nothing else, when she and Viola fought their way out of the capital, they had to face much more danger than they did now. They were pursued by thousands of troops. They run.
The excessive use of magic brought a strong sense of emptiness. Zola put the sword back into its scabbard and asked Aldai:
"Where should we go now?"
"I don't know. I just saw the wild bear mercenaries burning the ships. I thought these ships must be very important, so I decided to grab one."
"..." This is a big problem.
From the dock, you can't see the end of this underground ocean at all. Anyway, looking into the distance now, you can only see hazy darkness without any indicators.
But they didn't have to worry about this problem immediately, because Zola, who was standing on the side of the ship, saw that several of the crystal ships docked on the dock had already been launched and seemed to be chasing them in their direction. .
"Professor Aldai, hurry up and speed up! This ship can't be faster!"
"This wind-making technique is already at its limit! I want to go faster too!"
Wind creation is not a powerful spell, and it is incomparable to the natural wind. It is okay to leave the port quickly, but it will be unbearable soon.
In fact, the wind on the sea is not light now. Aldai used the wind-making technique purely because she did not know how to control the sail.
Seeing this, Zola rushed over quickly, grabbed a crystal winch behind the mast, and turned it a few times.
The sail, which was originally deflated because the effect of the wind-making technique was about to disappear, was inflated again by the sea breeze because it changed its direction.
"Have you ever learned to sail?"
"My father taught me this before. He was a commander in the navy."
Most of the Knights of the Guard formed by Viola are the daughters of nobles, and there are also many military relatives.
Since Zola can use the sail, it's easy to say. Alday immediately gave up and returned to the side of the ship.
At this time, we can see that there are as many as a dozen ships leaving the port, all of which have lit up torches or magic lights, and they are all in perfect coordination, chasing Aldai and the others straight away.
No, I can understand that the wild bear mercenaries are chasing us. Why are the drow and the Glow Ion Yin cultivators chasing us? !
The reason is actually very simple. In fact, both of them don't know where to go when sailing.
This is a bit of a herd effect. Just because Aldai and the others hurriedly grabbed the boat and set off, the remaining three parties immediately put down their fight and also grabbed the boat and left the port.
The wild bear mercenaries felt that when Aldai sailed out, he must have known that he had to take the boat to the other side to find the Demon King's Ring, so he hurriedly followed him.
The drow and the Glow Ion Yin Order felt that since Aldai had snatched the boat and ran away, they would be right as long as they followed her.
However, in fact, Aldai knew a hammer and was at a loss as to which direction to go to when reaching the sea.
No matter whether you know it or not, everyone is at sea now, and it is unlikely that they will listen to Aldai's explanation.
Since we set off earlier, we won't be overtaken for the time being. Looking from the sky now, it looks like Aldee's ship is leading the way, which is particularly clear and prominent.
And speaking of heaven, there is bad news.
--boom!
Along with intense lightning and thunder from the sky, heavy rain fell.
