Chapter 360: Battle of a Hundred Ships
When everything was ready on Niljielina's side, the pirates' attack was belated. Compared www.biquge.info battles on land, such as siege battles, the naval battles in the world of Orlando are much more monotonous. If there are no mages on either side, then attacking with the ramming of ships, shooting arrows at each other, and boarding and fighting are all there is to naval combat.
Although fire attacks can cause great damage to wooden ships in many cases, ships are a very important part of the spoils of war, so it is rare to set fire to ships.
Looking at a large group of cloth-clad pirates standing at the bow of the ship and shouting with scimitars and axes, the words 'rabble' suddenly inhibitably broke into the minds of everyone present in the Serito fleet. Unless these pirates are strong men who can fight with fighting spirit, their combat effectiveness and survivability can be imagined if they are dressed in such simple protective equipment.
With the shouts of Benny and the others, who were temporarily in charge of coordinating the dispatch, the combat potential of the Sereto fleet was suddenly revealed. The sorcerer's glow as he casts spells is clearly visible among the rows of archers, and at the slightest command, they will rain down death and destruction on their enemies!
"Archers prepare! Magician ready!! Lock on to the target!! ”
"Attack!!"
As soon as the surrounding pirates approached within fifty meters of the Celeto fleet, with an attack command shouted by Binni Arrive, more than 100 feathered arrows mixed with more than a dozen fireballs and ice picks instantly smashed towards them! Although it is a covering attack, if you look closely, you can still see that these arrows and magic have their own trajectories.
For example, most of the targets of the arrows are focused on the pirates on the opposite ship, and the lethality of the arrows can almost be maximized against these miscellaneous soldiers who have no armor to protect them. Almost without exception, the magic is aimed at the mast or cabin of the enemy ship, and as long as these magic attacks can be successfully hit, the hit pirate ship will suddenly lose its ability to move, and become an obstacle and floating target that hinders the progress of friendly troops!
In an instant, the sound of arrows breaking through the air and the whistling of fireballs almost became loud, and although most of the pirates escaped by hiding behind the side of the ship, more than a dozen pirates were shot through the body before they could dodge. As for the seven small galleons that hit the masts directly by the fireballs, not only did the masts burn quickly after they broke, but the flying wood chips and sparks also beat the pirates on the deck like scattershots.
However, this was only the beginning, and with the subsequent rounds of arrows and magic condescending blows, the pirates' boats couldn't even get close to twenty meters of the Celeto fleet! Although some of the pirates and archers would fight back with spears and arrows, their accuracy and lethality were not as good as their opponents, and apart from the occasional few low-ranking warriors who were injured, not a single person from the Seritto fleet had died!
"Humph! These brainless pirates don't weigh how capable they are! With this kind of cannon fodder garbage-like combat effectiveness, you still want to argue with so many of our strong people?! I really don't know whether to live or die!! ”
At this time, Rook followed Niljielina to convey the order, and he was also itching to watch the friendly troops around him kill the enemy, but in order to stay by the side of the deputy commander for a while, Rook could only be patient and anxious. So after seeing it very badly, he finally couldn't help but complain.
“…… If only it were as simple as it was told to you. Since the enemy can accurately detect our information, he naturally knows that these intransmissible pirates cannot threaten the fleet. I'm afraid these guys will have a follow-up that hasn't been used......"
Nilgerina wasn't proud of the almost one-sided battle in front of her. Perhaps it was due to some mysterious intuition, she always felt that things would not be so simple, what kind of backhand was there? The enemy would pay hundreds of ships and a thousand people to do such a thing? Is it for the goods? Money? Or is it a grudge? Is it true that the goods transported by the Therito Merchant Group this time are just a batch of precious magic materials?
With Rook's wisdom, he naturally couldn't think of so much of Nirjielina, so when he heard what Nirjielina had just said, he asked strangely:
"I don't understand, Deputy Commander, if the enemy really has any back-up, why would they wait until these pirate ships have been destroyed? What else can they do other than be barely an obstacle? ”
(…… Barrier?! Yes! All the enemy needs are these obstacles that can trap us a little!! They must have some kind of magic or something that could wipe us all out at once! Damn it! How could I have forgotten those powerful magicians! I was confused by the number of these pirates before! Let's hope it's still too late! )
Thinking of this, Nirjielina didn't care about letting Rook convey the order, she eagerly stirred up her fighting spirit, and then raised her voice to order:
"The Ceritor Fire Mage listens! Abandon your current objective and blast the wreck of the pirate ship to the east! I need you guys to open a path for the fleet!! Fast!!! ”
In terms of the strength of the Fighting Qi of the third-order black iron primary, it is difficult to say how strong its attack power is, but it is enough to shout. Listening to the increase in vindictive spirit, Nirjielina's unusually eager voice suddenly spread throughout Serito's fleet. For a while, the magicians who heard the order almost subconsciously froze, but Olibod's reaction was fast, and he almost directly changed the direction of the attack, and instantly threw a third-order magic [Fireball Technique] that was originally about to bombard the opposite sailboat onto the wreckage of the sailboat on the east side of the fleet!
Rumble!!
At this time, the wreckage of seven or eight small sailing ships had been accumulated there, and although Olibod's [Fireball Technique] was not bad, it was only a large gap in the wreckage of a sailing ship from the middle. Given the power of this attack, if you want to blast a path here, I'm afraid you will need at least fourteen or fifteen fireballs to hit them.
Olibald's attack seemed to be a beacon, and the rest of the fire mages immediately launched an attack in that direction, but because of the previous attack on the pirates, these mages have consumed a lot of magic power at this time, according to Niljielina's estimate, when the passage is blown up, I'm afraid the mages are almost consumed.
"They want to run~! Go to the boat and plug it up!! If we can't take them down after so many dead brothers, we won't be able to get anything!! Kill!! ”
But after seven or eight fireballs, Nilgerina's intentions were seen by the pirates. In fact, they were tasked with trying to take the fleet, and besiege them if they couldn't. Because this task is extremely dangerous, so in private, these pirate leaders have obtained gems worth tens of thousands of gold coins from the mysterious person of the joint, although the pirates are usually a group of guys in front of them and behind the back, but when they think of the terrifying strength shown by the other party that day, the pirates have to stiffen their necks and fight desperately......
