Chapter 32: The Death Walker
A raging fire ignited. … Top Novel, www.
As the powder keg in the warehouse was detonated, the entire port was turned into a sea of fire, and as the fire spread, some of the battleships were directly ignited with sails. It seemed that the wind was helping the fire behind, and all of a sudden more than a dozen battleships appeared on fire. Although the hull of the ship was made of wood, it was not so easy to ignite, except for the sails, which burned all at once, and then gradually spread to other places.
Boom Boom!
A succession of cannon fire rang out, and the dark ghost ship fired continuously at the port, and only after the enemy reacted that a warship had anchored, it gradually escaped into a thick fog.
This time.
Sauron has long been nowhere to be found, leaving only death, fire, and destruction on the island.
………………
Prince Hans appeared with a somewhat panicked figure, guarding many people around him, and a few faint figures, after discovering signs of assassination by other high-ranking wanderers, the number of people responsible for protecting Prince Hans doubled. At this moment, there was anger on Prince Hans's face, but there was a trace of fear, a terrible fear that came from a deep sense of powerlessness. Although there seemed to be only one enemy at all times, he still felt as if he were the prey trapped on this island, and could be devoured by the enemy at any moment.
The fog of the night was like a prison, and he still couldn't even determine where the enemy was!
"It's a high-level wanderer!"
A veiled figure appeared, landed lightly beside Prince Hans, and said in a deep voice: "The method of killing is simple and neat, and it is very likely that he is an assassin close to the legendary level. ”
Sauron's assassination modus operandi resembles that of the Assassins.
In fact, even the Ranger in the Shadows was trained in Assassin combat, let alone an orthodox wanderer like Sauron.
"Can you find him?"
Prince Hans turned his head and said with a stiff expression, "Is he still on the island?" Can you find him? ”
The masked man standing beside him shook his head with some difficulty, and said in a deep voice, "The other party is proficient in stealth. There is no trace of it in the vicinity, and it is possible that it has left the island. ”
"Your Royal Highness."
"Such a high-level assassin is quite dangerous, it will be difficult for others to detect him at all, you better not leave my sight from now on."
Leave?
Prince Hans turned his head with difficulty, looked at the high-ranking warlock next to him, and said in a deep voice, "I can be protected by you, but what about the others?" ”
"What if he sneaks in like this every day to assassinate others?"
"Your Excellency?"
"Is there a way to find this assassin?"
The high-ranking warlock pondered for a moment when he heard this, and then said, "If I can find out his approximate location in advance, I can use a spell to break his stealth." But the whole island is so big, it's impossible for us to spy on all of them. It's easy for him to sneak around. Unless there is a master who is proficient in tracking, you can find him out in advance. ”
The fire was gradually extinguished.
However, the losses were heavy, and the leader of the Viku pirates was so angry that he screamed because many of his pirates had been killed in their sleep.
This method of death was a disgrace for them, because they did not even see the face of the enemy.
"I can lay out some spell traps."
The high-level warlock looked at the fire around him, and unconsciously felt a little nervous in his heart, as if someone was watching him, and said, "But don't expect too much, this kind of high-level assassin is also very good at disarming traps." ”
If you want to assassinate. The first target is definitely Prince Hans, and the second target is most likely a spellcaster like him.
Therefore, he also felt a little hairy at the moment.
The number of high-level loiters is actually not very large, because many loiters are stuck in the process of petty theft, and if they want to advance to the advanced level, they must go through rigorous training. At the same time, it gradually grows in the killing. The casualty rate of the wanderers in the adventuring team has always been high, because they have to find their way, disarm traps, and detect the enemy, and the slightest miss is a disaster. The number of high-ranking assassins like tonight is even rarer, and it may be even more difficult to deal with.
For a first-class assassin. It's not that hard to take out a caster below Legendary.
"What about the casualties?"
Standing in the crowd, Prince Hans turned to one of the naval officers next to him and asked, "How much have we lost in manpower?" ”
The naval officer's expression was a little panicked, and he lowered his voice and said, "The casualties are not very large. Many of the dead were Viku pirates, and many of our men were on board. However, our powder magazine was set on fire, and the ammunition was probably insufficient, and there was an explosion in the place where the supplies were stored, and the damage is estimated to be not small. ”
Hearing this, Prince Hans slammed the wall in front of him fiercely, and said with a hideous expression: "Damn it! ”
………………
The results of the night were quite brilliant.
Sauron stood on the deck of the Dead Whisperer, staring at the fire on the distant island that had not yet been extinguished.
He also did not expect that the enemy would actually set up a warehouse for storing gunpowder near the port, and the defensive force was not very strong, which was simply a great luck. Then there was a scene after his evacuation, which directly ignited the powder keg and blew up the entire warehouse into the sky. This time, the metropolitan navy of the southern island nation can be said to have suffered heavy losses, and it is estimated that they have no ability to attack Arendelle just by relying on the materials stored on the battleship.
Because of today's events, I'm afraid they will increase their precautions in the next few days.
Sauron was ready to take a break and wait for the events on the west coast to brew, as long as the news of the southern island nation being attacked by pirates came back, I am afraid that Prince Hans would not be able to sit still.
One last glance at the flaming Dragonbone Island, Sauron ordered the Dead Whisperer to return.
Today's battle was very rewarding.
Because after so many killing battles, Sauron finally got a special background specialty at the legendary level.
- "Deathwalker! ”
"Deathwalker [Legendary Background Specialty]: You have become accustomed to death and blood through killing time and time again, and ending life has become as easy for you as eating and drinking. You have no mercy on your enemies, thousands of lives have ended in your hands, you have begun to become indifferent to death, and in battle you will awaken the abilities of the Deathwalker, which will make you have no mercy for the enemy, even if it is friendly spells and so on, it will not affect your judgment in the slightest. At the same time, the breath of death will further strengthen your intimidation powers, creating a coercion that affects everyone in your vicinity, and any enemy you fight must go through a mandatory will judgment or fall into a state of panic due to fear. [Permanent Will +3, Intimidation +50]"
(Note: Because you have ended too many lives, you may be able to attract the attention of certain beings in the spirit world.) )
………………
Deathwalker.
With Sauron finishing off more than a thousand enemies, he finally got his hands on this legendary level of Killing Background Specialty.
And because of the intimidation ability attached to [Deathwalker], Sauron's basic skills have actually become the basic skills second only to stealth and knowledge.
His intimidation skill reaches 135 points!
However, the most important abilities of the [Death Walker] are not the increased will and intimidation, but the coercive effect generated by the death energy.
This is an intangible range capability.
It can be understood as a weakened version of Long Wei, so that weak enemies may lose the courage to fight when facing him!
This ability can greatly enhance Sauron's way of dealing with sieges, and if combined with the 'Fear Gaze' ability attached to the Dread Divinity, basically ordinary soldiers may not even have the courage to fight against him now.
It's demon-like abilities.
High-level Abyssal Demons will exert fear on the enemy during battle, and many times it is clear that an army has the ability to surround and kill a high-level demon, but in the end, it is still defeated lightly because of fear.
Dawn is coming.
Before Sauron could get close to Arendelle, he allowed the Dead Whisperer to dive to the bottom of the ocean and returned to the harbor alone.
He's waiting for news from the South!
