There was no cloud between the vast sea and the sky, but an abrupt mist appeared on the surface of the sea, and the mist rolled forward, and gradually disintegrated and drifted away, revealing its sunfish. After the fastest update successfully broke out of the encirclement of the Black Shark Pirates, and successfully blamed the Storm Church, Darko and the others were in a good mood, and as soon as the fog concealment technique dispersed, they high-fived happily in celebration. Pirates have always had a temper that must be revenged, and it is conceivable that in the future on the Venus plane, the only remaining merchant fleet of the Stormwind Church will also be struggling.
"Phyllis, you're a brilliant idea, the two pirate ships you sank are blamed on the head of the Stormwind Church. Even Kai couldn't help but admire, they had been together for so long, and before they knew it, the relationship had eased a lot.
"Of course, I'm a student of the Dark Pope's old man, and this little machinations aren't easy to navigate. Phyllis held her head proud, and without hesitation, she took credit to the Dark Pope.
"Fokker's direction is also accurate, and he sank the opponent's two ships with only two salvos, which is really happy, and the final flag is really fueling, which is wonderful. Darko happened to see Fokker climb down from the mainmast, and hurriedly grabbed him and asked, "Who did you learn the bearing and elevation angle from when guiding the hoist?"
Falk was a little shy of praise, but he was also excited, and quietly pointed his finger in the direction of Tasa, and ran away in a puff of smoke.
Darko asked curiously, "Tassa, when did you teach such a student?"
"I've never taught, but he's been on my ship and seen me in command once. Tasa shook his head, pondered for a moment, and added, "I don't forget how many times he's been, and he's really an indomitable brat." ”
Darko was stunned and speechless, thinking to himself that there are indeed some people in this world who have some kind of talent, even if they don't have any bloodline and background, they are not useless. Tasa secretly thought that since he had taught Fakker to others, he really had to spend some effort teaching it, otherwise he would lose his reputation.
The wine and food on the deck hadn't been touched yet, and this was because the celebration had just begun before when the pirate ship was discovered. Phyllis rolled her eyes, then shouted happily, "Let's continue to celebrate Wendy's return, and now there's one more reason to see off the declining Stormwind Church!"
Phyllis's proposal was in everyone's minds, and they all celebrated happily for a while, as if the tension of meeting the Black Shark Pirates was just a break in this celebration. Otto went straight to Aceba and began to mix wine one by one, of course they drank only ordinary ale, so that Phyllis would not let them spoil the precious wine.
Tassa didn't drink any wine at all, but sat quietly with a plate of sliced buffalo legs, glancing at Falk from time to time who was feasting, and he hadn't yet figured out how to teach the student.
Phyllis gathered in a circle with Darko, Kay, Wendy, and others, chatting about the interesting things about their respective periods, while discussing the century-old wines. It's true that Wendy hasn't eaten a cooked meal normally for a long time, but her movements are still simple and elegant, and she directly uses her fingertips to cast a miniature wind blade to cut the roasted sea mushrooms into smaller pieces before sending them to her mouth. She thinks it's great that after so much time, she can still enjoy food with everyone.
Phyllis still picks and chooses, choosing the part of the food that she thinks is the most beautiful and delicious from the small pieces, and then forks it into her mouth, and pours the rest into Darko's plate. Darko had been chatting with the others, and for a moment he didn't bother to eat, and soon the plate of food was piled up to block his view, so he had to walk to the side of the boat with the plate and pour it all into Aciba's mouth.
All the sailors were in good hands, and the deck was bustling with activity. At this moment, the second mate ran over and said to Phyllis, "Captain, our course has deviated a little too much, should we return to the route to the Dead Ruins?" ”
Before, they were chasing the route of the Black Shark Pirates, at least it was a normal route, and when they broke through, they completely ignored the direction, and it was only at this time that the second mate remembered that the purpose of Phyllis and the others to find Wendy had been achieved, and it was time to change the route back.
Phyllis slapped her head, "Oops, I almost forgot, go check the charts and see how you can get to the ruins of death as soon as possible from here!"
Wendy sighed, "You're really going to the Death Ruins too, so I'm afraid you'll have lost a lot of time trying to save me." ”
The second mate had already taken out a huge parchment chart, cleared a place directly on the deck and spread it out, and by this time it was already getting dark, and Otto came over with a magic lamp, and also studied the next route together. Phyllis, on the other hand, said to Wendy indifferently while watching the excitement, "It's nothing, it's still more than four months before the Death Relic opens, and we should be able to get there if we hurry up." ”
Darko and Kai were not familiar with sailing, and the two of them walked to the side of the ship with their wine glasses, and accompanied Aciba to watch the sea, Kai looked into the distance, and suddenly exclaimed excitedly, "I seem to have seen a drifting bottle, hurry up and take a look at it, maybe it's a love." ”
Darko cast a little illumination on his fingertips, searched around in confusion, and saw the bottle as well. The two hurriedly found a fishing rod and hooked it as the drifting bottle passed not far from the boat. But when Darko and Kai saw this bottle, they were dumbfounded, what kind of drifting bottle was this, it was obviously an ordinary wine bottle, and there was a small half bottle of unfinished wine in it.
Darko still didn't give up, "Could it be that it contains some powerful potion that can make people improve one ......level out of thin air if you drink it?"
Kai directly opened the cork and sniffed, "Forget it, this is just ordinary wine, or the worst kind." ”
"A large number of ship wrecks were found ahead, as well as many corpses. From the bow of the ship came the cry of Fawker, who, even as he celebrated, did not forget his job as a lookout.
At Faulk's shout, all the celebrants stopped, and looked out into the distance to see bottles, jars, broken wood, and corpses floating on the surface of the sea, with no end in sight. Some young sailors, seeing the swollen corpses, vomited directly.
"There are a lot of sailors' corpses, is this ship suffering from pirates?"
Otto also walked over and shook his head solemnly, "No, the entire hull of the ship has been completely shattered into pieces, not even a large wreckage, and our archers have only sunk the pirate ship in a salvo before." ”
Tasa confirmed the fragments of the ship and said, "This seems to be caused by a high-level sea monster casting a magic attack, it seems that the resistance of the other ship is more fierce, otherwise the sea monster will not easily use its innate magic." ”
The second mate asked Phyllis, "Do you want to save someone?"
Usually if other ships are shipwrecked, they will rescue them after seeing them, but Phyllis and her party have a clear purpose, and now that the time has been delayed, Phyllis is obviously not the kind of person who likes to meddle in things, so the second mate has this question. In addition, the second mate is worried about the identity of the other party, if it is a pirate, it is also a common thing to take revenge after being rescued, although the sunfish is full of combat power, but the battle will also increase the trouble.
Sure enough, Phyllis waved her hand and said, "Put a few lifeboats down for the survivors to use, we still have to hurry, and we don't have to pay attention to irrelevant people." ”
The second mate immediately ran back to the captain's room, about to turn around, when Darko suddenly pointed in one direction and said, "I saw a corpse, he is not a sailor's attire, it seems that he should be the one who hired this ship, his robe is a little familiar, like that of the Dark Church." ”
Phyllis was startled, and hurriedly cast a hawkeye spell to look in that direction.
Wendy raised her hand, and half of the broken black flag flew from a distance and landed on the deck, although it was already damaged, but she could vaguely recognize that the face was drawn by a figure with arms stretched out to spread darkness.
"Yes, it's the Dark Church, and it looks like they've been killed halfway. Phyllis shouted to the second officer, "Don't change course, go in the direction of the wreckage, release all the lifeboats, and save all the people alive in the water!"
The second mate rushed out and shouted, "Captain, you can't go any further, it's a dangerous ...... ahead."
"Stop talking nonsense! Hurry up and save someone!" Phyllis has been in the Dark Church for a long time, the church has many of her friends, and her dark magic also relies on the bonus of dark divine power to make it so powerful. At this time, when the other party was shipwrecked, it was natural to find a way to rescue.
The second mate also knew Phyllis's character, and the Sunfish immediately began to search along the area of broken wood, and at the same time released lifeboats to find survivors, until they actually searched the past to know how tragic the battle was. The wreckage of the ship spread over a range of thousands of meters, and it was obvious that an entire fleet of ships had been wiped out here, and it was the fight and escape and the wind and waves of the monsters that made the wreckage of the ships distributed in such a wide area of water.
Searle has been soaking in the sea for more than half a month, although the sea water is not very cold, but always being in a place where the water element is abundant still makes him uncomfortable, and the fighting energy of the protective body has been exhausted long ago when he fought with the spear sea urchin. Without the Dou Qi to protect his body, there is no way to resist the erosion of the sea water on his body, even with his swordsman level, it is difficult to be unscathed, his skin has gradually become white and swollen, and he feels that he is about to swell into a puffer fish if he continues to soak like this.
Searle was sitting in half a barrel at this time, which had also been immersed in the seawater, and could only barely float on buoyancy. He was also surrounded by several people in knightly attire, all of whom were members of the Cappadocia family in the Dark Church. The Cappadocia family asked Serre and others to act with the Dark Church, and there were also a group of people who joined the Thunder Church. It did not consider dividing the army to reduce the risk, so that in the event of an accident in the fleet of the Cappadocian family, there would be other clansmen who could reach the ruins of the dead. However, what I didn't expect was that the fleet of the Dark Church was attacked by a group of spears and sea urchins on the way, all eight seafaring ships were sunk, and the expedition team of the Dark Church also died.
Selburn also planned to take the opportunity to explore the ruins to make a good show and improve his status in the family, but this idea was directly shattered. Not only that, but he found that his own safety was the most important concern, and this sea area did not seem to be on the traditional route, few ships passed by, and it was still unknown when he would be rescued.
"Elena, how long do you think it will take for the Church fleet to come here to save us?" Searle looked at Elena, who was a dozen meters away, where there was a black crystal barrier surrounding a large piece of the shipwreckage, making it impossible for the sea to penetrate into it. Since it is only a third-level divine art, it does not consume much mana, and Elena can recover mana and mental power at night and maintain it for 24 hours. Only a god like Elena who has won the title can continue to use magic like this, which makes Searle very jealous.
"That's a question you've asked five times today, Searle. Elena still closed her eyes slightly, as if she didn't want to consume too much physical strength by speaking, "It took us more than five months to sail here from the Space Temple, and all the power of the Church in the Venus Plane has been gathered in our fleet, and it will take at least five months for the Church to come from the Amycian Plane to rescue us, so you can wait with peace of mind." ”
"This ...... I'm not like you, I can continue to cultivate in this environment! The training of a fighter requires strength, how can I proceed in this sea water? If I continue to soak, my bones will soften. ”
Elena ignored Serge's complaints, and remained silent to reduce unnecessary physical exertion.
Serge continued to complain, "Damn the Church of Light, they'll have to pay twice as much when I get back!"
At this time, Elena suddenly opened her eyes, she looked in one direction, and a flash of light flashed in her eyes, "A boat is coming, and they have released lifeboats, it seems that they are ready to rescue us." ”
Serre hurriedly looked over, and also faintly saw a little sail shadow, "What fool at the helm has driven the ship here?" Quick! Get the amplified magic scroll out and tell them that there are living people here!"
A dark knight next to him said, "The scrolls we carried were all soaked in seawater and have failed, and all the available methods for calling for help have been used up for most of the month. ”
Serge was stunned for a moment, and said angrily, "You useless guys, tell me what is left to tell each other that we are here?"
The Dark Knight looked around expectantly, then raised his hoarse and weak voice and shouted in a broken voice, "Help!"
"Don't scream!" Searle's face became extremely ugly, he felt that it was a loss of knightly majesty and demeanor to do so, he looked at the lifeboat in the distance and struggled for a while, when he saw that the direction of the lifeboat was a little deviated from where he was, he finally couldn't continue to hold on, and he also gathered the little fighting spirit left, and shouted, "Come on!
After a while, the lifeboat came to the location of Searle and the others and rescued them. When Selden was in the lifeboat, he was so moved that he was about to cry, he was finally saved, and those few humiliating cries were nothing at all. He adjusted his seat, brushed his hair, wiped the tears from his eyes, and said to the man at the helm, "Take me to your captain." ”
The lifeboat carrying Serre, Elena, and the rest of the Dark Knight quickly returned to the Sunfish. The change of circumstances immediately made Searle excited, and he first looked at the other party's flag, and saw that there was nothing on the main mast, which made him even more relaxed.
When a team of dark knights and a few dark pilgrims also got on the ship, Serge felt that the time was almost up, so he coughed slightly, and said in a voice that he thought was arrogant, "Your ship is requisitioned by the Dark Church from now on, and your original sailors can choose to follow them to the Death Ruins, or they can leave the ship in a lifeboat now." Dark Pilgrim, go and occupy important positions such as the captain's room and the steering engine room, and do not let unrelated people approach. ”
After Serge said this, he found that all the people in the Dark Church did not react, and he was blaming himself, and realized that several people were looking behind him. Serge hurriedly turned, then retreated in fright, and nearly fell to the deck. I saw Phyllis with her arms folded around her chest, looking at him with an unkind face, as if she was examining a prisoner of war.
"Isn't this Phyllis, hehe, hehe, long time no see. Searle struggled to squeeze out a smile, and the chick nodded like a peck of rice, but he couldn't laugh anymore because he saw Darko beside Phyllis, "Bu ...... Bright!"
Darko just glanced at Serre lightly, and walked away on his own, the conspiracy of Serre and Mary and others, Phyllis had already told him, but that hatred had nothing to do with him anymore. Even if he wanted to take revenge on the Church of Light, he would have to wait until he was strong, so he had never thought about that aspect of the problem. Even the title of Bright, Darko was stunned for a moment before he reacted, after all, this name has not been called for too long.
"I don't have time to laugh at you right now, tell me why you're the way you are?" Phyllis snorted, not in the slightest politeness to Serge.
"It's okay to tell you, but I'm going to trouble you to take us to the Death Ruins along the way. Elena walked over and looked at Phyllis with a smile. Even when she is so down, she still has no lack of proper appearance.
"Is this your attitude towards your lifesaver?" Phyllis frowned, "I could have thrown you down again at any time." ”
"You ......" Although Elena is angry, the situation is strong, and she has no capital to argue with Phyllis.
Phyllis was in a good mood when she saw that Elena was deflated, and she still asked Serge, "Tell me how you got into this situation, if we hadn't passed by, I'm afraid you would have been wiped out." That's a wonderful point, maybe I'll be happy and take you to the ruins of the dead. ”
By this time all the lifeboats had returned, and apparently no one had been found, and the rough count was less than a hundred, and apparently all the others were dead. With such a heavy loss, Phyllis was also very moved, after all, the expedition sent by the Dark Church would not be cannon fodder, and it was already a very big loss to die so many elites.
But this shipwreck was also a screening, and all the low strength were eliminated, and the rest were real elite troops. Due to the need to always prepare for war with the Church of Light, the Dark Church does not have cardinals at the level of Archmage and Archswordsman, and its highest-level combat power, in addition to Serre and Elena, also has five Dark Rangers. Phyllis was a student of the Dark Pope, and they naturally knew each other. The Dark Ranger is the name given to the High Priest of the Dark God, a class similar to the combination of a Shadow Priest and a Dark Mage, and has stronger defense than both a Regular Priest and a Mage. The status of this profession is equivalent to that of the Paladin of the Church of Light, and it is a profession unique to both churches.
Seeing such a heavy loss, Searle snorted angrily, "I should have noticed that the first mate was an undercover agent of the Church of Light, and he dared to make us look like this, I will have to let them come back sooner or later!"
Elena said calmly, "This sea area is a sea area where the community of spear and sea urchins gathers, so usually no one passes through here, and the first mate of our fleet is ostensibly the head of the Dark Church in the Venus plane, but in fact he is an undercover agent of the Church of Light. The route of our fleet this time was set by him, and he did not disclose it to anyone else for the sake of secrecy, only a few high-level officials knew about the route, and none of these high-level officials knew about the situation in the Venus plane. By the time the ship reached this sea, it was too late, first the spear sea urchin group attacked us, and we paid a heavy price to disperse it, and then the eighth-order spear sea urchin king appeared, and it used long-range magic to set off a big wave and destroy the fleet. ”
The Dead Relics don't have what the Church of Light wants, but that doesn't mean they want to see the Dark Church profit for nothing, so sabotaging their actions is the best way to go. It is already a very cost-effective thing to exchange the exposure of a high-level undercover agent for the destruction of the entire Dark Church expedition.
"The story isn't exciting at all. Phyllis was bored and commented, "I don't understand the leadership of the sea, the undercover agents who don't have the technical content, and the inefficient step-by-step command mechanism...... It's not your fault that these are all of this, but you are also too weak, an eighth-order demonic beast wiped out your entire army, I would like to know, where did you get the confidence to explore the relics of death?"
Searle opened his mouth to refute something, but in the end he didn't say anything.
Otto's focus was different from Phyllis's, and he frowned and asked, "What do you say? This sea is the territory of spear and sea urchins?"
"Don't you know?" asked Elena, "Then why did you take this route? I thought you had some way to avoid being attacked by spears and sea urchins. ”
From the lookout, Falk's voice came from the lookout, "At three o'clock, a large number of demonic beasts are potentially approaching us underwater, suspected of spear and sea urchins, everyone is ready for battle!"
