Volume 4 The Burning Steppe Chapter 159 The Fleet of No Return

Above the sea, fierce battles are raging.

It was a siege of three warships by hundreds of Sea Clan soldiers.

The three battleships that were surrounded were all more than 60 meters long and 156 meters wide, and they belonged to medium-sized warships, and they were rough in shape and had a typical Bimon naval style.

An hour later, two of the three Bimon warships were chiseled through the bottom of the ship by the swordfishmen of the Sodfich tribe among the Sea Clan soldiers, with their spear-sharp jaws, and sank into the sea. The Beamon naval warriors who fell into the sea were no opponents at all in the face of the sea tribe soldiers, and they were all killed in a moment.

Now only one of the remaining Beamon warships is still struggling to hold on. The reason why this Beamon battleship did not suffer the same sinking fate as the other two Beamon battleships was because there was a seventh-level water shaman on board. The shaman used the spell 'Ice Condensation' to freeze the sea area within a radius of 100 meters below the battleship into a lump of floating ice more than ten meters thick. Faced with more than ten meters of solid ice, the swordfish man samurai had no choice but to give up his attempt to scuttle the ship.

The three Beamon warships were traveling in patrol formation when they were suddenly attacked by the Sea Tribesmen, so they were far apart. After the attack, the three warships did not have time to retract one place, and they were divided and surrounded by Sea Clan soldiers. The seventh-level shaman was limited by his mana, and the area where the water condensed into ice could not cover the area where the other two warships were located, which caused them to be scuttled by the swordfish warrior.

The Sea Clan soldiers began to storm the last of the Beamon ships. They leapt from the sea onto the ice, threw hooks with long ropes, hooked the side of the warship, and climbed up the hull.

On the battleship, dozens of Beamon naval soldiers gathered on the side of the ship, slashing and stabbing with knives and guns, desperately preventing the Sea Clan soldiers from boarding the ship. The Sea Clan soldiers held ropes in one hand, fishbone knives in the other, or turtle shell shields to resist the falling knives and spears above their heads.

Although the Sea Clan soldiers who climbed up were in a disadvantageous position, because they were far outnumbered by the Beamon naval warriors on the battleship, they finally gained the upper hand and were about to break through the ship's defense line and board the battleship.

However, at this time, the shaman on the battleship also completed a 'water archery' spell. He was now at sea, and the water elements around him were extremely abundant, so there were hundreds of water arrows condensed by his 'water archery technique'.

With a wave of his hands, the shaman suddenly swished endlessly, and hundreds of arrows suspended above the battleship rained down like a shower, aiming directly at ten Sea Clan warriors who had already stepped one foot on the side of the ship.

Water arrows fell on these Sea Clan warriors, piercing through their armor made of shells. Splashed with blood, the Sea Clan warriors screamed and fell from the side of the ship to the ice floe. The Sea Clan warriors who had gathered around the ice floe and kept jumping from the sea to the ice, ready to follow up on the ship, couldn't help but be frightened after seeing the orc shaman kill dozens of robes with a single spell. Whether it is a sea warrior who is still in the sea or a sea warrior who is already on the ice, the action is stagnant.

"There are shamans among the orcs, we don't have magicians, and we will suffer a big loss if we attack it! Let's withdraw for now!" shouted a Sea Clan warrior leader.

I heard the sound of falling water one after another, and the sea clan warriors who jumped onto the ice floe all turned around and jumped back into the sea. Immediately, the Sea Clan warriors retreated a thousand meters, out of the shaman's casting range, cruising back and forth in the sea, besieging the battleship without attacking.

"Master Fidel, it's all up to you this time!If it weren't for you, we'd probably be wiped out this time!" said the captain of the battleship to the shaman with a grateful look on his face after repelling the Sea Clan warriors.

The shaman who made great achievements was a salamander of the Bimon Shui tribe and the Jayne Salmander tribe. If the Beamon orcs are to be subdivided, they are actually divided into four categories: beasts, waters, birds, and zergs. However, due to the fact that the orcs are the most powerful in the Beamon Empire

, so the other three races are also collectively referred to as orcs to the outside world.

At this time, Fidel stood on the bow of the ship, looking at the haunting Sea Clan soldiers in the distance, as if thinking about something.

After hearing the captain's voice behind him, he turned his back and said with a wry smile: "Our crisis is far from being resolved! As long as a Sea Clan mage of my level comes and keeps me in check, I'm afraid we won't be able to escape!"

"That's right, then we'll have to hurry up and escape!Master Fidel, have you removed the magic effect of the 'Ice Condensation'? Now that our ships are frozen in ice, the crews can't control them at all!" the captain asked.

"Your Excellency, if the ice floes disappear, aren't you afraid that the swordfish people will jump to the bottom of the ship to scuttle the ship again?" Fidel asked rhetorically.

"This ...... "The captain didn't know what to answer.

"In order to guard against the swordfish people, the ice floe must not melt away! We are lucky, the southeast wind is blowing now, and although the speed is very slow, the ice floe is carrying us to the land! We can only pray that the support of the Sea Clan will not come so soon!" Fidel sighed and said helplessly.

"I hope so!" the captain was stunned for a moment as soon as his words landed, and then his eyes were wide open, staring at the front with a look of shock on his face.

Fidel saw the captain's expression change drastically, and he knew something was wrong, and hurriedly looked back.

An army of sea tribes appeared on the horizon in the distance with churning waves, and looking at the surging crowd, I am afraid that there are tens of thousands of people. The Sea Clan's army sprinted all the way south, and the south was in the direction of the Norsenside continent. This army of the Sea Clan is clearly a division of land conquest.

"No wonder as soon as the storm at sea stopped, we were attacked by Sea Clan soldiers. Normally, as long as there is a storm on the sea, the sea tribes will hide on the bottom of the sea and will not appear on the surface of the sea. Only during military operations will the Sea Tribes dive out to the surface in advance, regardless of whether the weather is bad or not. The Sea Clan soldiers we encountered earlier must be the vanguard scout force of this Sea Clan's expedition army!" Fidel exclaimed, figuring out the question he was pondering.

But now it makes sense to understand that none of this is meaningful.

The Sea Clan army soon caught up with the slowly moving ice floe. Rolling iron streams run over the ice floe, destroying it along with the ships on it.

At the moment when the Sea Clan army approached, Fidel, who was desperate, gathered all his magic power and tried to release his strongest magic, in order to take as many Sea Clan soldiers as possible to bury him when he died. However, one of the Tiger Shark Knights at the forefront of the Sea Clan army failed to get Fidel's wish, and just as Fidel's magic was about to be completed, the Tiger Shark Knight threw a huge fishbone spear from a distance of several hundred meters, piercing Fidel's abdomen with unmistakable accuracy, nailing him to the deck.

"Shaq Oral, it's you...... When the Tiger Shark Knight, who had thrown his fishbone spear, leapt onto the deck of the battleship and retrieve his weapon, the dying Fidel finally saw the face he had seen on the battlefield.

"Fidel, I didn't expect to meet and kill you here!Without a high-level shaman like you, the defense of Moon Bay Castle will drop a lot!" Tiger Shark Knight pulled out his fishbone spear and said coldly.

......

At the northernmost tip of the northern grassland, adjacent to the tidal waters of the North Sea, there is a beautiful bay, which is named 'Crescent Bay' because of its shape like a crescent moon.

The crescent moon bay is surrounded by the blue sea and clear waves, and the green mountains and cliffs are at its back, which is not only beautiful, but also the terrain is steep. Since Crescent Bay is located in the northernmost part of the Northern Frontier Grassland, bordering the Beihai Sea, it will almost certainly be selected as one of the landing sites when the Beihai Sea Tribes entered the Kou Continent in the past. Therefore, the Beamon Empire spends a lot on the cliffs behind the sandy beaches of Crescent Bay

Strength built a military castle to protect against the North Sea Sea Clan. This military fort is the 'Moon Bay Fort', one of the nine important towns in the north of the Beamon Empire.

As a strategic place to defend against the Sea Clan, the number of Beamon garrisons in Moon Bay Fort has always been at a high level. Before the 'Northern Bandits', there were three infantry wings and one naval brigade stationed in Yuewan Fort. After the outbreak of the 'Northern Xinjiang Banditry', when other military forts more or less dispatched troops to quell the rebellion, in order to prevent the Sea Clan from moving, Yuewan Fort not only did not send any soldiers to leave, but also added an infantry wing. Originally, Yuewan Fort also planned to expand the naval brigade into a naval wing, but due to the tight military budget, and considering that if there was a battle with the Sea Clan, the chances of winning the naval battle would be far less than that of the land victory relying on the city defense, so it finally gave up.

Due to the heavy garrison of Moon Bay Fort, and it was on the front line of facing the Sea Clan, none of the rebellious mercenary groups on the grassland set their sights on this place. No one wanted to put themselves under the threat of the Sea Clan after capturing Moon Bay Fort at a huge cost.

At dusk.

When the setting sun slanted into the mountains in the distance, the last rays of afterglow that shot towards Crescent Bay fell on the towering Moon Bay Fort on the edge of the cliff, adding a desolate and magnificent color to the Moon Bay Fort.

There are now four orc generals in Moonbay Castle, and Manggult, who was born in the Pier clan, is one of them. Although there are three of his peers in the Moonbay Fort, who are of the same rank as Manggult, he is the supreme commander of the Moonbay Fort. The reason why Mang Gult was able to overpower the other three partial generals was not only because he had the strength of a great sword division and was the most powerful person in the Moon Bay Fort, but also because the infantry wing under his direct command was all composed of strong and brave bear warriors, which was the strongest wing in the Moon Bay Fort.

Mang Gurt stood on the walls of the Moon Bay Fort, his hands behind his back, and looked at the sea with a frown. Today, a storm suddenly blew in the tidal sea, and the naval fleet that had gone out to patrol the sea has not returned until now, which makes Mang Gurt faintly worried. Although this storm at sea was violent, even the Moon Bay Fort by the sea was affected, and many doors and windows in the fort were damaged by strong winds, but the ships that could go out to patrol were warships built according to the high standard of wind and wave resistance, and there was also a high-level water system shaman in the fleet, no matter what, the patrol fleet would not capsize in such a storm.

But the delay in the return of the patrol fleet made Mang Gurt unable to put his mind at ease, and he felt a sense of anxiety in his heart.

Until the moon rose and darkness completely enveloped the heavens and the earth, the Supreme Commander of Moonbay Fort still could not wait for his fleet to return.

Mang Gurt's heart sank to the bottom, and he turned around, ready to immediately gather the other three orc generals to discuss the matter.

As he was about to walk down the city wall, he suddenly paused and looked up at the moon in the sky.

Because he noticed that something seemed to be in the moon.

Slender black shadows flew past the moon. Although these black shadows flickered in the moonlight, it was easy for Mang Gurt, who had entered the realm of the Great Sword Master and whose vision was like a candle, to see their faces clearly.

It was smooth spikes.

This long, thin, smooth spike is actually a type of arrow. Unlike ordinary arrows, which are composed of three parts: arrowhead, shaft, and feather, this kind of arrow does not have an arrow cluster and feathers, as if the shaft is just sharpened. Many people may not have seen this strangely shaped arrow, but Manggult, who has been dealing with the Sea Clan for many years, is very familiar with it. Because it is the special arrow of the Sea Clan, it is the thorn shot from the body of the Sea Clan's archer Sea Urchin.

Mang Gurt caught the flight paths of these sea tribe arrows, and they all landed on the dozen or so commanding heights on the walls of Moon Bay Fort. Mang Gurt's face changed instantly, and his wild roar suddenly sounded in the Moon Bay Fort: "The Sea Clan is coming! Prepare for battle!"
