Chapter 18: Night Fight on the Deck
A night breeze blew on the deck, mixed with blood.
Urs stood on the broadside directly behind the stern, the remaining blood dripping down the downward side of the cross-handed greatsword to his feet, and the young man in black showed no joy in slaying his enemies at this time.
After all, this seemed to him to be a normal result.
The serpent Naga is only about 15 creatures, and even a lieutenant-level individual is almost 17, and this monster is a tricky enemy for the average adventurer and ship's guard - but in his eyes, the answer to the question of who is stronger and who is weak still needs to be discussed?
Especially now, he is in a completely healthy state, and the last three embarrassing data on the character attribute template are excluded, and the first three force-sensitive body attributes that can directly affect the physical fighting ability are 28/21/25 points respectively. In the face of the absolute attribute crushing advantage, it is impossible for a kitchen knife professional of the same level to maintain the slightest suspense of defeating the strong with the weak in front of him.
Yes - the slightest.
It's not that he's blindly arrogant, it's that he does have that kind of self-confidence.
What's more, after advancing from a barbarian to a furious knight, he currently has 21 character levels, and there is no element of water in these 21 levels, unlike some people who make a mess of their career structure in order to get some seemingly good part-time rewards.
Urs gripped the Cross Greatsword in his hand, thinking that this normal-sized +1 enchanted weapon was indeed much worse than the Cursed Blade, although the killing effect that could be wielded in this battle should not be a big problem.
His thoughts were interrupted for a moment, and his eyes swept along the headless corpse of Captain Naga of the snake man to the outside of the side of the ship, and the brown eyes that didn't even need to be activated in the berserk state immediately saw two more snake man Naga climb onto the boat with their captain.
The young man didn't think much about it, he moved forward, twisted his wrist to adjust the weapon in his hand, and took advantage of the situation to slash the trajectory of his slash in the air under the moon to lead a folded turn - that bend mercilessly turned towards the two snake man Naga pirates who had just climbed aboard the ship, and the terrifying power drove the blade to slash their heads together, and the splash of blood embellished the trembling sharpness on the blade!
The reason for the trembling is probably because when the monster's headless corpse fell, the weapon in the young man's hand also "trembled", and the +1 two-handed greatsword used to replace the cursed blade would probably not have imagined that it would be so rudely wielded in the hands of Urs, if it had its own soul.
The smooth slashing arc - as if the monster's muscles and bones didn't even play a role in hindering it, were torn apart by the side blades of the sword body, and it "hurt" so much that this weapon with only a +1 enchantment level couldn't help but complain:
Tap, master – tap!
I am a sword, not a stick in the hands of ogres!
Otherwise, it will be broken......
Of course, Urs couldn't hear such complaints, and the cross-sworded in his hand couldn't have made any significant complaints, and the durability of enchanted weapons was at least twice as high as that of vanilla equipment.
He just needs to think about how to show his strength in this fight.
On the other hand, at the staircase of the aft deck, the first mate of the Sword Sail turned his head to see that the young man in black had single-handedly neutralized the threat of three snake man Naga pirates in a row, and such a sight made the experienced old crew member startled for a moment, and then suddenly remembered that there seemed to be a few special adventurer passengers on the ship.
The "Thorn Squad......" The first mate blinked, remembering the special group ticket, and then turned to look at the other people beside him.
"Mr. First Mate, we are the adventurers of the Thorn Squad." Thea heard him and nodded politely to him, "Please don't worry, we will assist you in repelling the enemy." ”
As soon as the wolf-eared girl's voice fell, the stone fist who was walking in front had sharp eyes, and immediately kicked her legs and rushed into the melee situation, and her body more than two meters tall quickly came to the side of an adventurer without losing her flexibility.
He didn't know the adventurer, but now he was forced to fall by a snake man Naga with a halberd in his hand - so the orc rushed over, and his strong fist rose with the inertia of the sprint and struck the monster on the side of the head, and the electric claw fist seemed to really turn into an electric claw, and the sound of electricity was followed by the warrior monk's fist and transmitted to the monster's wet head.
The snake man Naga, who was attacked by the orc warrior monk, was immediately electrocuted to the point of numbness, and the violent punch of the stone fist also knocked his consciousness out of his mind, and his whole tall body like a troll fell to the deck with a thud and did not move.
"Well played, man!" Koto raised his hammer for Stonefist's performance, a high-spirited roar roaring through his loud voice.
Stonefist heard the cheers from his fellow dwarves, but his mentality was somewhat similar to that of Urs's previous after slaying the three snake people Naga in a row, and he didn't feel too excited about his exploits in killing the enemy.
He just lowered his gaze and looked at his palms clenched into fists, faintly feeling that his strength had become stronger—since the battle to the death with Entropy Explosion had passed, he felt that the power called "Qi" in his body had been more harmoniously combined with his physical body, and he was one step closer to the realm of "Mortal Sainthood" that many warrior monks longed for.
Although it is undeniable that he is still far from that realm now, even his former Far Easterner master has never cultivated his own strength to that level.
But the growth of strength can really be felt by him.
The orc warrior monk exhaled, and the superfluous distractions only remained in his mind for half a second, and then he threw them out of his mind, and turned his head and reached out to pull up the adventurer who had fallen on the deck and was saved by him in time.
"You can't let Brother Urs and Mr. Stonefist steal the limelight!" Suddenly, as if inspired by the actions of the young man and then the orc monk, Bellingis also mustered up the courage to step over Koto's side, holding the small stake-like magic guide gun in her arms, and aimed it at the monsters on the sea outside the side of the ship by feeling, adjusting the angle of the gun to raise the mouth and "bang" to make a shot.
The firing wizard did not raise the smoke of black powder, but only shot a rainbow-like parabola like a condensed ball of energy like a cannonball in the direction that the little girl was aiming at, and fell over the heads of everyone on the deck into the sea below the side of the ship.
Illusion was her specialty, and the "cannonball" quickly landed on the snake man Naga's boarding force, exploding like a firework in a colorful ball of light.
"Colorful Spray" turns into "Colorful Bomb" - unfortunately the panicked scene of the monsters is not seen by the rest of the team, and the high-profile act of the dwarf girl operating the magic guide gun to fire is due to the rainbow-like parabola revealing her own position.
A Naga fishman slave on the deck caught a glimpse of her, and now the dwarf was a little shorter than herself, and its nature of bullying the weak and afraid of the hard made it immediately grasp a short spear in its hand, and a strange cry from its mouth drove the short spear to the side of the little girl.
Bellingis looked vigilantly at the Naga fishman slave who had found her, and was about to dodge with the magic guide to the side, but her gaze turned into a blue "wall".
In other words, it is a tower shield as thick and wide as a city wall.
The dwarven warrior's fortress shield stood beside the dwarf girl, separating the attacking Naga fishmen, causing the maliciously short spear to crash into its own shield—a pitiful force, as small as a thin match that had accidentally poked into a brick, and almost snapped itself.
The fish-man slave monster who attempted to sneak attack screamed and withdrew his short spear, and looked at the blue tower shield in a daze, and then saw the shield be withdrawn, and a war hammer "whew" into its fish brain-
"Watch out, little girl!" Koto picked up a hammer and smashed the scumbag over the scumbag, then turned back to the reckless little dwarf girl, "You shouldn't have rushed in front of you like this!" ”
"Thank you, thank you." Bellinglith froze, blinked, thanked slightly, and said in her heart that I had just flashed away.
Really, I don't kid you......
But of course, she knew that Koto was doing it for her own good, and that situation was in fact a life-and-death moment, and if she dodged it, she could save her life, and if she didn't dodge it, she would die.
She was confident in her agility, but the rest of the team hadn't been with her long enough for the dwarven warrior to know that the little girl was no less skilled than the old thief before he left the team and retired, and even really did as Glorydon said - only a little less than the old thief was at the peak of his youth.
But all in all, the results were good.
"You'd better stand behind the dwarves and leave the risk to the warriors!" The brave dwarf, dressed in armor and armed with a tower shield and a war hammer, kept the delicate little girl behind him.
The broad back seemed to have a bit of majesty - if it weren't for the fact that he wasn't tall enough, and carried the big stew pot on his back all the time, the corner of the stew pot accidentally hit the little girl's face the moment he half turned around.
Although the force of the collision was very light, Bellingis only felt her face touch some kind of hard object, and quickly pulled away, glad that the big saucepan named "Xiao Meng" did not almost put itself on the deck like another hammer, and couldn't help but think in her mind-
Oh my God, how does this dwarf look even more reckless than himself?
But then again, he's really brave! The act of protecting himself with a shield just now is like a prince protecting a princess in a fairy tale!
It's a pity that he is definitely not the prince of some dwarven clan...... And she is not a princess of some dwarf kingdom.
But it feels good to be adventurous!
The little girl pursed her lips, undisguised her inner excitement and nervousness on her blushing face.
Fresh, exciting, even if it takes a fight...... She felt that this was the life she longed for, and the unchanged daily routine was about to suffocate herself!
At the same moment, Dorothy raised the staff in her hand and pointed forward, and the five fingers of her left hand took on a posture of casting a spell, but she hesitated when she looked at the scene in her eyes—
"No, no, I can't control my magic!"
"I would... I'm going to kill everybody......"
She opened her eyes wide and muttered in fear, then withdrew her staff and hand in a state of fear, and her legs under her robe involuntarily retreated half a step.
If it were the same days as in the Red Scorpion Adventure Party, Miss Red Warlock would not skimp on her spells......
The emblem in Thea's hand also performed the priest's magic in the prayer of the wolf-eared girl. The convenience of the high perception attribute makes it easy for the silver wolf-eared girl to search for injured crew members and freelance adventurers on the melee deck, and then apply healing magic to those in need.
Armed with a blood-stained cross-sword, Urs stood on the side of the stern and killed several snake men Naga who tried to climb up one after another, when he and the others present heard a strange song in their ears.
The song is full of strange temptations, as if to compel you to listen according to the dictates of some will, and thus lose your mind and bewilder, as if controlled by the melody.
"Siren's Song!" The young man frowned, and immediately realized that something troublesome was there.
It was the Snake Naga Siren, the female member of the Snake Naga who drew spells from her blood, and was a warlock of the monster race, with a poignant voice that could also sing songs that would make people fall into a state of confusion.
Their singing has led to many cases of ships going missing in the history of Emerald Bay. Some people say that the snake banshee on the sea may be a close relative of the snake man Naga Siren, and although the unfounded bizarre statement cannot be believed, the songs of the two are quite similar from the harmful corner.
Alert to the effects of the song, Urs prepared to activate his furious expertise at once—
The first mate of the Sword Sail quickly realized the source of the song, and his rich sailing experience drove him to quickly pull out a magic scroll containing silence from a leather case around his waist while he was conscious.
Silence creates a silent area, and while it poses some drawbacks, such as inconvenient communication, it can often be seen in the hands of older crew members as a strategic means of countering the Siren's singing.
The ship's first mate was ready to use the silence scroll - but just then, another kind of rapid, high-pitched music took the lead, overpowering the bewildering voice, as if the dominant stage had announced to the troublesome villain that he was the protagonist of the play.
The jay was a proud performer, but she was as calm as ever, a few slender fingers under the long sleeves of the black robe caressed the strings of the lute, the uplifting strings amplified by the magical power of the musical spell to the point that everyone could hear it, and the dark purple eyes cast a cold light in the direction from which the song came from under the hood......
