Chapter 736: Pirate King (1)

At the same time as the celebration after the auction of the Baltic Empire, a war broke out in the North Sea that decided the rulers and owners of the North Sea Sea.

On both sides of the battle, one side is the old overlord of the North Sea, who holds the evidence of the overlord of the North Sea, has ruled this part of the North Sea for many years, and has the title of [Storm Demon King].

The other side has only risen in recent years, and with the support of external forces, it has grown rapidly, becoming a few pirates second only to Francis Drake, and they have successfully dismantled the North Sea Kingdom in a few years, forcing Francis Drake to a desperate situation.

Originally, when this winter was approaching, the winds in the North Sea should have been mild, the sea should have been calm, and whales and dolphins could often be seen on the sea.

But now, the whole sea is already covered with dark clouds, whether it is the sun, moon or stars, at this moment, they are all under the dark clouds, the sea water is turbulent, through the dark sea, you can vaguely see the huge shadow of the deep sea.

In such a harsh environment, a huge sailing ship was sailing at a high speed, and the ship was full of traces of the aftermath of the battle, and even the sails were patched with fur and rags.

This is Francis Drake's car, the Golden Deer, known throughout the North, and even though it has gone through an unknown number of fierce battles and how badly it has been injured, the ship is still strong and sailing on the seas.

Francis Drake was standing on the deck at this time, calmly looking at the horizon where the sea and the sky met.

Today is the day of the decisive battle, this is the time chosen by the other party, all she can decide is to turn this sea area into her home field, in the storm, weaken the enemy as much as possible, and strengthen herself.

A bandaged pirate with a long knife full of chips in one hand walked up to Drake's side, his expression equally solemn, obviously worried about the war that would take place.

"Sister, it's noon. ”

Although it is not possible to determine the time by the sun's rays and angular position due to the dark clouds, experienced pirates can still determine the time at sea based on temperature, humidity, and sea breeze.

"They're waiting for us to lose our patience, don't rush, be steady. ”

Drake said calmly, her expression easily infected the pirates around her, and made them full of confidence in the next battle, each of the battles they had experienced before was a brutal battle that was enough to wipe out their entire army.

Today's game, there is no difference from the ones experienced before, if you win, you can look for opportunities for a while, and if you lose, you don't need to think about the future, they will just die here.

However, they will not fail, from the first mate to the chef, they don't think that Francis Drake will be defeated, because every time they are desperate before, she has brought them victory.

The lookout, who was scouting on the mast, suddenly let out a burst of exclamation, and he shouted loudly, his tone trembling, with a panic that could not be concealed.

"Stupid, calm down!"

Drake stomped his foot hard.

"Yes, yes, big sister. ”

The lookout swallowed, he had just become a lookout yesterday, his predecessor had been snatched by an attacking wyvern at night, and now he must have turned into stinking feces.

"Enemy!

"Where's the quantity?"

"Three, no, counting, ten, twenty, Captain Drake, twenty-five!"

Twenty-five ships, mighty as a dark cloud, were speeding towards this direction, and each of these ships was armed with no less than the Golden Deer, and they still maintained a steady voyage on such rough waters.

These are the warships of the Baltic Empire, which are in service, have strengthened their combat capabilities, and are specially used to encircle and suppress pirates, whether in terms of firepower, speed or flexibility, they have an overwhelming advantage.

Drake is the one who has the most to say, originally her entire fleet had at least fifty ships, but these ships had no way to gain any advantage in the face of these warships of the Baltic Empire.

The speed is not as good as the man, the range is not as good as the man, such a gap at sea, it is completely the despair of having no way to fight, in the past engagements, as long as the speed of the ship slows down slightly, it will be subject to the fire of the other side, and it will not become a plank floating on the sea in a few minutes.

The sailors on the deck are very calmly preparing for battle, the number of enemies or something, has never been a problem for them to consider, as the sailors on the Golden Deer, every battle they have fought before has been carried out in the case of disparity in strength and disparity in numbers, but the result is that their side with weak strength and fewer people has survived until now. Their enemies either fled with their tails between their legs, or they sank into the sea and became food for sharks.

Drake's eyes narrowed slightly, and a thunderbolt fell from the sky, hitting the opponent's front ship with precision, a huge fireball appeared on the deck, and in less than a few seconds, the sails on the ship were engulfed in flames.

Of course, such an attack could not easily defeat a ship, but it was enough to slow him down, so that the ship would not be able to participate in the next battle for a short time.

"Get ready to fight, little ones. ”

Drake lowered her hand, and with the strong wind, her voice was clearly heard in everyone's ears, and her sailors quickly carried out the movements in their hands, reloading the bed crossbow and catapult, and keeping the weapons by their side, which could be picked up for hand-to-hand combat.

"Don't let them into the cabin, boatswain, you can do that. ”

The boatswain is the one who manages all the sailors, and is usually the one who organizes the white-knuckle battle on the entire ship, and in the next battle, Drake will definitely face the legendary powerhouse of the enemy, and there is no way to command the warriors below to fight, let alone implement any tactics.

At this moment, the sound of a heavy object cutting through the air was heard, and the Golden Deer narrowly avoided the stone balls falling from the sky, and the surrounding sea was shot up by waves more than ten meters high, and the overwhelming water droplets wet the clothes of every sailor on the deck.

Although he successfully dodged all the attacks, Drake's face became ugly, and compared to the enemies he had encountered before, this attack was greatly improved in terms of strength and accuracy.

This means that the next battle will be even more difficult, and if the ship is hit once and the hull is damaged, then it is to be expected that the Golden Deer, which has lost speed and agility, will be targeted.

Then, Drake began to fight back, she manipulated the sea to form a huge vortex, restricting the movement of the opposing ships, and causing the dark clouds in the sky to form lightning and attack.

The results were not good, and each of the opposing ships had spellcasters on board, who used magic to resist the lightning falling from the sky, and used magic to make the ships sail normally in the whirlpool.

On a ship with horns and spear-wielding skeletal pirate flags, a man with a thick black beard, golden eyes, gold ornaments all over his body, and an upstart look glanced at the ship next to it that had to be forced to stop because the sails were burning.

"Stormy? Every time, every time, every time it's the same trick, I have to say, it's very effective, Captain Francis Drake, but the old trick is easy to crack. ”

Edward Teach, originally an ordinary teenager born on the island of England, joined the ranks of the English pirates, starting as an ordinary sailor, and then becoming the commander of a small ship, and finally the captain of a large ship, in just one year.

Later, he found that there was no room for him to continue to develop in the English Channel, on the contrary, in the North Sea in the northern part of the English Channel, Francis Drake, who was originally the ruler, became too involved in the disputes in Scandinavia, and his power began to weaken, and the relationship with the great powers of the Northland, the Baltic Empire, fell to a freezing point.

Edward Tič would not let go of such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and he contacted the navy of the Baltic Empire, willing to become the other party's white glove in the North Sea, in exchange for the support of the Empire.

In the end, he succeeded in obtaining support, personnel, and material support from the Baltic Empire, and also successfully obtained a warship of the Baltic Empire Navy in active service as a mount, which he named "Queen Anne's Revenge".

But now it is difficult for anyone, including the designer and builder of this ship, to recognize the true face of this ship, the whole ship is painted black, that is the color of the blood that has dried up and has been precipitated for a long time, and in various parts of the ship, there are skulls as decorations, which were once associated with Edward Brown. After being killed, Tichy's enemies were decapitated and their bodies thrown into the sea to feed the sharks, and for this reason, every time the Queen Anne's Revenge sailed out of port, swarms of sharks followed, waiting for food to fall from the sky.

Of course, the support of the Baltic Empire has never been so easy to get, and he must now stand against Francis Drake as the Baltic Empire tells him to win this battle and defeat the old North Sea overlord.

The other pirates were in a similar situation to Edward Titch, all of whom had agreements with the Baltic Empire, and in addition to receiving funding, they had to help the Empire with a limited amount of dirty work.

However, these agreements also have an expiration date, and after defeating Francis Drake, they will inevitably be caught up in strife for the loser's legacy, and as for the Baltic Empire, the threat of the Baltic Empire is not so important in the face of the overlord title in the North Sea.

A gust of wind from nowhere brought a fog that covered the entire sea, and everyone's line of sight was compressed to a distance of less than three meters, and the sailors began to panic on the incoming ships.

The sailors who have lived at sea all the year round clearly know what kind of changes will be brought about by this fog, which was originally many-to-one, and can fight with numerical superiority, but now it has been forcibly turned into one-on-one by this fog.

Not only that, but because of the reduced visibility, it is extremely easy for ships to collide with each other, and in such a sea area, a collision is a sign of ship breakage, and the raging waters will carry the ship directly into the deep sea.

The Demon King of the Storm can bring not only the Storm, but the concept of the Storm, and if someone like Francis Drake can become a god, it must be the God of the Storm of the Sea, showing the angry side of the sea.

The panic did not last long, and under the orders of the experienced ships and first mates, they quickly threw themselves into the preparation of the battle, and in order to prevent conflicts between their own men, a magic lamp was lit on the mast of each ship to confirm the position of each other.

However, the fangs belonging to Francis Drake had been revealed, and the already dilapidated hull of the Golden Deer suddenly appeared on the side of a ship, and with a thousand overwhelming powers, it slammed straight into the side of the unsuspecting ship.

The sturdy ramming angle smashed the poor ship in half, and the sailors on board did not even have time to react before they fell into the sea in a panic and were swept into the whirlpool formed by the silence of the ship.

The sharks, which had been waiting at the bottom of the sea for a long time, were swimming happily and savoring the dessert before a big meal, and the blood could already be seen slowly spreading on the bleak sea, and the broken corpses had just floated on the surface of the sea, and were bitten and devoured by the huge maws that rushed out of the sea.

Having successfully completed an attack and achieved victory, the Golden Deer did not stop and rushed towards the next target, and Drake had to extend his advantage in the shortest possible time.

Surprise attack, only the first few times the enemy is unprepared, can be called a surprise attack, can achieve perfect results, if the enemy detects, then the turn will even be used by the other party, let yourself fall into a bad situation.

Drake had never underestimated her enemies, and this sudden fog would only last for a short time, and the casters on the enemy ships would inevitably invite a strong wind, this fog.

Her enemies are indeed just pirates who don't have much organization and order, but pirates don't have the ability and means to gain the allegiance of powerful spellcasters, so those spellcasters must be from other forces.

For example, the Baltic Empire, the most powerful country in the Northlands, is now.

She smelled Alice from those spellcasters, and the rhythm and habit of spellcasting were fundamentally the same.
