Section 336 Prisoners 1
"Partner, it's over. ”
This was the first time Lu Wu had heard such words from a master. Before the master utters this sentence, everything seems to be under control. At the guns of J, the pirates simply can't get up. Even if he looks like a bandit who is not afraid of death, but the bullet does not matter whether you are a warrior or a coward, you will have to finish with one shot. The amber on the other side has passed, and it is believed that the heavy weapons (if any) on that side will be cleared soon.
You don't need any complicated means, just throw it into the sea. Of course, it's okay to use the Warlock's means to cause small damage in key locations. But now that the master suddenly said such a thing, Lu Wu couldn't help but be stunned.
As mentioned earlier, the perception of a master is actually far more effective than the combined sense of sight and hearing and smell of human beings. Because it is able to penetrate through obstacles and observe from a higher dimension. Compared to this ability, even the supernatural ability of the warlocks to strengthen the five senses is not very powerful.
This freighter, as mentioned earlier, can only be regarded as a small and medium-sized cargo in this era, and its size is far from beyond the perception range of the master. So the battle that happened on the pirate ship, the masters watched it.
"We've got to run ......," the master said. "No...... It's terrible, it's so bad!"
"What's going on?"
"The Warlock has been defeated!"
"What?" Lu Wu now knows very well what the concept of "defeated" is. "Is it a Stygian?"
"Yes, Lunaman. The master said with certainty. "Zhu Hua and her, it should be Zhu Hua's boss or something. She launched a surprise attack and defeated the Warlock. ”
"Amber she ......" Lu Wu almost felt a chill in his heart.
"Not dead. The master said. "I guess I was taken prisoner. Partner, it doesn't matter now, we're stuck here now! It's too bad, we've lost our ground now. If it's in the city then we have a big advantage, but this ship ...... There's no way to escape. ”
"We can't escape to the sea......"
"Partner, the sea is unobstructed. Do you think you're under the warlock's sight, and it's useless even if you want to dive. You need to breathe, and your physiology dictates that you must need oxygen to metabolize energy substances, otherwise your brain will be starved of oxygen. And even if you have diving facilities, the magic residue left by the magic ring is enough for them to catch up, you don't think you can outrun the Stygian Warlock by swimming, do you? If they go on a killing spree, it will be tantamount to creating chaos to help us get out...... But now...... It's my fault, I actually ignored ......," the master sighed.
"You ignored?"
"Yes, partner, a few days ago, they should have been active in the camp of the scientific expedition team. Hey, you must also understand that there is a thing in this world, called racial perception difference. That is, it is difficult to distinguish between different races. For example, if you just see a horse mixed into the herd, it will be difficult to recognize it from the herd of horses with similar coats. Not to mention anything else, even if it is a race that is extremely close to humans like chimpanzees, it is difficult for humans to accurately distinguish each individual. I am also affected by this law...... Truth be told, with a few exceptions or individuals that I've specifically focused on, humans are really not much the same in my eyes. I usually use faith networks to discern the believers I come into contact with, but if I am a non-believer...... Unless it's a handful of humans who are very close and very familiar, it's hard for me to identify them at the first time. It's not that I can't, I can tell in the case of concentration, but ...... Normally, I don't waste my attention. ”
Lu Wu really understands that something is wrong now. However, he didn't blame the master - the master really helped him too much, and it was a mistake that was hard to avoid. This can only be said to be a matter of nature, because the vast majority of human beings are willing to shift the blame to others in this situation, even if this kind of blame-shifting approach does not make any sense to solve the problem. Not for anything else, just for your own psychological comfort and health.
"What should we do?" Lu Wu's mind turned repeatedly, but he couldn't think of any available methods.
The supernatural abilities, or rather, the magic, of the warlocks are really too powerful. It's great when it's an ally, but it's good as an enemy...... There is simply no viable way to crack it.
"There's only one way!"
……
A cargo ship is alone in the open sea.
The pirates got their prey as they wished. There were about forty of them, but there were less than ten left. However, they finally boarded the ship.
Normally, once a pirate with an automatic weapon aboard a cargo ship, the hunt is over. There is no way to resist a heavily armed pirate without an armed crew.
It took the loss of most of his companions to win this victory, which should have been a victory to boast about. Because according to a certain underlying logic of pirates, the death of a companion is not a bad thing, but a good thing. Because it means that there are fewer people who share the spoils. As for the decline in their own numbers, that's not a matter at all! There aren't too many people who want to be pirates, it's just that they don't have the conditions.
Unfortunately, this time the situation is different. Although the pirates were victorious, and although they had imprisoned the ship's seamen and passengers, and had taken control of the ship into their hands, there was no expression of joy on their faces. On the contrary, it is full of the smell of walking on thin ice and trembling.
Not only that, but many of them also took out what were obviously tourist souvenirs, such as statues of Buddha, Guanyin, crosses, or the like, and secretly prayed there.
As mentioned earlier, there may have been many pirates in ancient times who robbed hostile ships under the slogan of religious wars or national wars, but there are not so great slogans among modern pirates. To put it bluntly, today's pirates only make a fortune for one robbery. Whether it's extortion or snatching a ship or reselling it with its goods, it's just for money. And a pirate who robs and kills people for money is basically an atheist, believing that when people die, everything will go to zero, and there is no afterlife and no heaven or hell.
But all atheism is smashed in the face of reality. No one knows how Wang Zhi's judgment, that is, the statement of "Rakshasa", spread. In short, a group of people have now become religious believers, praying to the gods to protect them from the control of these evil demons.
The only fortunate thing is that the legendary Rakshasa who eats human flesh has not yet started cannibalism, at least for now. In fact, they didn't know what they were doing when they got on the ship, and they basically stayed in the captain's room (the best place to live on the ship) and didn't come out. Of course, all pirates are desperate for this.
It should be noted that Wang Zhi is one of the remaining dozen or so pirates. It can only be said that this person has no judgment when he is fascinated by beauty (in fact, it can't be said that he has no judgment, who can think of that kind of thing?), but at critical moments, especially when encountering danger, his mind is still very clear. When J kills the pirate ship directly from the ship, he and the rest of his men cleverly jump into the sea. After they understood that this person was very strong and his marksmanship was very accurate, they thought that it would be best for him to fight with the two women. His expectations came true, but unfortunately not both sides lost or lost. At least it seems, J was easily defeated.
"Can't you find it?" asked Vermilion in the captain's room.
"I can't find ......," her blood sister reported.
"Cut, it's really cunning...... Zhu Hong replied disapprovingly. "He is worthy of being the governor chosen by Huiyue...... It's hard to say if there are other abilities, when it comes to escaping and hiding, it's really perfect!"
This sentence can be said to be full of malice. What can Lu Wu do if he doesn't run away or hide? Come out and fight her as a Stygian Warlock? This is a sea ship, that is, there is no place for any reinforcements around. As the master said, this particular environment is definitely the home of the Stygian Warlocks, because there are so many people here. It is possible to deal with warlocks by the strength of a society or a group, by the strength of one person...... Don't overthink it.
Of course, whether it was because Lu Wu was really hiding well, or whether it was a pirate or Zhu Hua who didn't want to look for it seriously, she didn't care much. Anyway, it's just a governor. For some Warlock families, a Governor's position is precious, but it's just a position, not the person who is the Governor. Everyone knew that the actual controllers on the Banshee Gate side were the Evening Star family, even the Stygian Warlocks.
"Did you swim or did the boat escape?"
"No, I didn't find it. ”
"This boat is all wood...... It's really easy to hide! Is there a person who can't be found?"
The people on board were all under control, but three people were not under control. One is the J from before, and I don't know where I went. One is Lu Wu, relying on the magic ring, it is indeed difficult to find. The last one, I guess it's also a person with some kind of supernatural ability (he probably didn't play because he didn't have a combat-type supernatural ability, and this type of supernatural ability warlock has seen a lot), and it's reasonable to not find it.
"It's a real problem...... I know I don't have time to search for them......" Zhu Hong said with an unhappy face. Her gaze turned to the porthole—the sea was still calm, but the wind had picked up a little. At sea, the real windless time is absolutely rare, otherwise there would be no sailing age. However, it is well known that the wind and waves at sea can make ships shake. In this kind of old ship (in fact, the new ship is similar), in this kind of wind and waves, the hull of the connected structure will emit a slight metal twisting and grinding sound. Objectively speaking, this voice is not loud, and it has no special impact, but it is omnipresent. But for warlocks, with this noise interference, it is almost impossible for warlocks to use their enhanced hearing to look for suspicious sounds (i.e., the breathing and heartbeat of hidden people).
At least theoretically, this situation is true: there are too many suspicious hiding places and too much room to maneuver by sight, and noise distractions by hearing, so there is really no good way to find them by magic.
For a genuine, that is, ordinary pirate hijacking operation, it makes no sense at all for the people on the ship to hide, because it is not a day or two, and it is a major problem for the people who hide to eat, drink, and excrete. So the pirates don't have to bother looking for it at all, they just need to control the key positions, and the people who are hiding will eventually come out. But for the Stygian Warlock who was anxious to get things done, there was nothing good to deal with for a while.
If you can't solve it, you have to leave it alone. Thankfully, these are all extra additions, and the real key loot is already in hand.
"Forget it, that's a secondary thing anyway. Good news for you, I've finally woken up that Radiant Moon Warlock. ”
"Awake? but ......"
"Of course it's not an ordinary wake-up. It can only be said that she forcibly made her conscious. In this case, only the consciousness is clear, and the combat effectiveness and action ability have not been restored. Of course, I'll be careful to guard against ...... Cooked ducks can't fly!"
