Chapter 7: Competitors Emerge

"Hand it over, hand over the key to the Golden City."

A fishman sitting on the back of a shark roared loudly with a drumstick of red coral in his hand, but his voice, to the ears of the sailors on the ship, was nothing more than an unconscious grunt......

Only Ryuji, who was fighting the third tide warrior, understood the meaning of the words, and he couldn't help but look up in the direction where the voice came from.

At this moment, a few lines of text popped up in front of him.

This information made Ryuji understand what was going on, and it was at this moment that he saw the eerie eyes of the fishman on the shark's back.

"So you're here, up, grab him for me......"

Liu Zhi is a spirit, and he almost didn't scare him to the ground, hell, didn't the prompt say that it didn't affect the player's actions, why did he start attacking now?

At this time, under the command of the fishman, most of the tide warriors rushed towards the ship, which startled the sailors on the ship, originally their ship was not a battleship, there were not many weapons on it, and the fishman actually put the main attack position here, and the defense on the ship was a little tense for a while.

At this time, the captain also realized that the situation was wrong, and he gave a loud order while signaling the nearby battleship.

"All of them are on deck, and the boatswain, organize the sails and prepare for a forced charge, and inform the other ships that they will help us."

Under the captain's orders, Ryuji saw a large number of sailors running out of the deck, some of them were wounded and obviously unable to participate in the battle, but they were led by the boatswain, one of them dragged a rope and pulled the rope as instructed.

Strange to say, it was clear that the wind was not strong at this time, but in the process of pulling the cable, the speed of the ship actually increased significantly.

If the speed of the ship was ten knots before, then in the process of pulling the cable, the speed of the ship was actually increased to about thirty knots.

This also caught the fish-man a little off guard, and the boat managed to crash away from the fish-men who were trying to rush up, and rushed out of the encirclement of the tide warriors.

Under the orders of the fish-man, the tide warriors ignored the other warships and followed the ships and chased after them recklessly.

This surprised the battleships behind, and if those tide warriors did not attack them, they could safely carry out long-range attacks on the tide warriors on the battleship.

Soon the situation became that the boat they were on was running in front, and the tide warriors and other fishmen were chasing after them, and then they were followed by the slowly approaching battleships, and the sailors on the battleships took out their muskets and ballistas, and fired at the tide warriors who were facing them in the back.

This is a serious blow to the tide warriors, the scales on their bodies, although they can block the attack of the musket, but it will hurt a little bit on the body, as for the ballista, it is the big guy who hunts sharks or whales on the ship, okay, if you are hit, it is a dead end.

The fish-man sitting on the shark's back was a little annoyed, and he tried to change the order several times, but on the one hand, the tide warrior swam a little far, and his command could not reach the ears of all the fish-men, and on the other hand, the fish-man's brain was not so clever that he could not do two things at the same time.

At first, the fish-man's order was for them to snatch Ryuji, and until this order was completed, the other orders did not affect them much.

So after nearly an hour of pursuit, the fish-man had already given up on the intention of pursuing again, and he beat the heavy drum tied to the shark's back, telling all the fish-men to abandon the operation.

While beating the heavy drum, the fish-man stared at the sailing ship in the distance, and he tried to remember the eyes he saw, "I will definitely find you, you can't escape." ”

At this time, Liu Zhi didn't know all this, he was lying on the back deck of the sailboat, staring closely at the fishman who was slowly moving away, at this time he had a serious sense of crisis in his heart, how did these two tasks look so unreliable, the game all kinds of bugs were forgotten, and there were all kinds of pits after the patch, so it was strange that someone played such a game.

At this moment, the captain standing on the other side of the rudder ordered in a loud voice: "Slow the sails, all sailors obey the orders of the boatswain, don't mess up, force the charge and can't stop forcibly, that will capsize the ship, remember to obey the boatswain's orders." ”

At the captain's command, the sailors who controlled the sails gathered the cables one by one and stepped aside.

The speed of the ship gradually slowed down, and finally remained at a speed of ten knots.

The sailors who had been freed from their work did not leave immediately, they sat directly on the deck, where they relaxed their arms, and it could be seen that the control of the rope by the rigid man consumed too much of their physical strength.

As Ryuji walked down, he saw the boatswain directing the last sailor to lower the cable in his hand, and he noticed that the boatswain seemed to be directing the sailors' direction instead of letting them drop the cable in their hands.

What's different about that?

Ryuji couldn't help but look at it twice.

At this time, the voice of the person who liked to point to Yanagi sounded again.

"That's the boatswain's ability, called collaborative control, only by knowing who is first and who is behind, what is the direction of the wind, will not cause chaos on the ship, the average sailor only knows how to control the sails, there is no way to coordinate control, if it is chaotic, it will often cause confusion in terms of balance, and it is even possible to capsize."

Ryuji nodded as if he didn't understand.

At this moment, Ryuji noticed that a line of text flashed in front of his eyes.
