Sauron returned to the cabin.
He wasn't interested in wasting too much time on these pirates, because they were only part of the plan, and it couldn't be these pirates who had turned into old fritters who were really the backbone of Sauron. It's like a good soldier can't become a veteran ruffian, these guys have long been accustomed to seeing the wind and steering the rudder, and they are basically unreliable at critical moments. Sauron frowned, picked up a cloth and wiped the blood and brains off his boots, then turned to look at Adele, who was his assistant in harnessing the pirates.
If you can't do this thing, I'm afraid you'll have to change someone else in the future!
A row of jΓΉ appears in front of you:
"The Battle of the Apostate [Folk Rumors]: In the middle of November 1675 of the Crescent Era, the Apostate Chamber plundered the natives of a large amount of gold, thus attracting a lot of competition from various forces. You helped the Church of the Sea take away important sacrifices, and in this battle you encountered legendary creatures such as the Sons of Dagon, the Deep Sea Hydra, the Storm Lord, and more. There are legends about ghost ships, and as a small number of survivors begin to spread along the coast, rumors about throat-slitting seem to be connected to you. [Legend +3]"
It's only now that the legend has appeared?
Is it because the survivors of that legendary naval battle have only now spread the word, or is it because the Son of Dagon and the Deep Sea Hydra have been fighting until now?
Sauron felt like it had both.
But since there are rumors, then the naval battle should be over.
It seems that the Ocean Temple has indeed reaped a lot of benefits, but I don't know if it has killed the son of Dagon. Sauron felt that this was unlikely, as the super giant sea creatures were too difficult to kill. Something that is completely beyond their own capabilities. Sauron wasn't interested in meddling too much, and his main focus was now on dealing with the pirates. Famous pirates have basically amassed a lot of wealth. And basically there are warships, and there is a saying that it is enough to kill a group of pirates for maritime trade.
This phrase has been spread in the tavern for a long time!
Sauron's first fortune was naturally to be found out from these pirates, relying on the mountains to eat the mountains and the sea to eat the sea, basically the famous pirates had a big ship that could sail across the sea.
Viper Island is an island surrounded by snakes, which was originally a barren island, but gradually developed due to the occupation of pirates. The pirates set up cottages here, serving as their base camp and transit point, and they were also involved in the smuggling trade. There have been many owners here. The current pirate leader is Narwhal, a fierce and powerful guy. This guy has hundreds of men under his command, owns a warship and a few clippers, and belongs to the fat sheep that can be used nearby.
Kill him!
Sauron had the capital to build a fleet, as well as the financial means to trade.
The two pirate ships gradually made their way towards Viper Island, which looked like merchant ships because they didn't fly their flags.
Sauron rested in the cabin.
After about half a day, he suddenly felt the hull of the ship shake, and then heard a loud roar outside.
"Pirates! Enemy! β
"Get ready to fight! β¦β¦ You bunch of trash! β¦β¦ Hurry up and get ready for battle! β¦β¦β
Sauron's eyes suddenly opened. Then he came to the deck at an astonishing speed, and Adele was already standing on the bow of the ship, next to the young half-elf who had just been promoted, and it was this young man who let out a roar. It seems that he has quickly adapted to his new identity. The pirates on deck were a little flustered, these guys were all uninhabited sailors, and the real good ones had already been recruited by others. Including the guy Sauron killed in the first place. That is, the strength of the second order or so.
"It's a narwhal!!"
A middle-aged pirate who was not too young and had only one ear shouted, and his voice was a little frightened: "It's a narwhal warship!" He knew we were going to deal with him. So come over and deal with us in advance! β
Sauron's brows furrowed.
He glanced at Adele next to him, and noticed the other party's stunned expression. Said coldly: "Shut up! They just happened to come and rob us! β
This is the territory of narwhals.
His pirate ships operate mainly in the vicinity, robbing fleets of ships that are sailing, sometimes charging tolls, and it looks like they just happened to run into each other.
"It's actually delivered to the door!"
Sauron's eyes narrowed slightly, and he landed lightly on the mast, then looked at the approaching pirate ship in the distance, with a one-horned sign on it. Only one warship appeared on the other side, and the others were all clippers that could only sail near the shallow sea, and there were quite a few dozen people on the warship, and there were forty or fifty people below, holding hook locks and cables in their hands, all of which were prepared for the string battle. The pirates shouted excitedly, as if they had taken Sauron in front of them as a fat sheep.
"Whales! β¦β¦ Whale! β¦β¦β
I don't know who shouted, and then everyone else was silent for a while, and then they heard the sound of someone throwing away their weapons, and said in a crying voice: "It's a narwhal!" β¦β¦ He came over in person! β¦β¦ We give up resistance! β¦β¦ Maybe he'll let us go! β¦β¦ Otherwise, everyone will be crucified by him! β¦β¦β
Bang!
Sauron frowned and glanced at the stunned fellow, and with a flick of his hand he unleashed an arcane missile.
A corpse fell to the ground.
There was a huge shadow under the bottom of the sea, which looked like it was nearly twenty meters long, it was a kind of whale that Sauron didn't recognize, it looked a bit like a killer whale, but the breath was much fiercer, but it wasn't a sea monster. What appeared in front of me was a huge sea creature that had probably grown to its current size for some reason.
- "Flying!" β
Sauron directly blessed a spell, then glanced at Adele next to him, and said in a deep voice: "Let them shut up and prepare for battle!" β
These guys are certainly unreliable.
But at the very least, the enemy can't just take the ship, and this bunch of garbage must resist to buy Sauron enough time.
Adele nodded slightly, and said coquettishly: "Pick up arms!" β
"You bunch of trash! β¦β¦ Get ready for battle! β¦β¦ Soft eggs! β¦β¦ Hurry up and take up arms! Otherwise, I'll cut off your heads! β¦β¦β
This girl is also a fierce child.
Don't look at Sauron to subdue her, she has a fiery temper in the eyes of others.
Because she is also a woman from the Amazon.
Sauron's figure soared into the air, and at the same time blessed himself with an invisibility technique, and he could not use the advanced stealth technique for the time being, because the real battle had not yet begun. His figure flew up directly, and then gradually approached the huge shadow under the seabed, and as the distance narrowed little by little, Sauron's expression gradually became stricter, and when he could see the huge whale completely in front of him, a strange light suddenly appeared in his pupils.
- "Dominating the sea creatures!" β
A momentary feeling of dizziness.
Sauron seemed to sense a will to resist, but it was nothing, and he controlled the consciousness of the creature in front of him.
Domination success!
A cruel smile appeared on the corner of Sauron's mouth, his figure appeared because of the ability to activate spells, and he was shocked and frightened by many pirates in his floating state, and there was a 'witch ...... in the distance The wizard's inhalation. But what scared them even more was the back, only to see a huge shadow in the sea begin to rise, and then directly to the surface, Sauron fell from the sky, and then stood on the head of the whale.
"How is this possible!?"
The eyes of the horde of pirates widened, almost stupefiing.
A pirate with a fierce face on the deck of the warship was also full of disbelief, and muttered, "How is it possible! How can he control my pet!? β
Sauron glanced at the enemy in the distance.
Then he snapped his fingers, and the huge whale beneath his feet began to turn around, then turned his head and rushed towards the narwhal's clipper.
"I love it!"
There was a smile on Sauron's face, his hair that had not been cut for a long time flew in the wind, and the huge whale began to speed up, crashing directly into the ten-meter-long clippers. The huge whale approached like a shadow, overturning the nearest clipper in an instant, followed by a thud and falling overboard, and some pirates were killed in a straight way.
"Run! Jump ship! β
I don't know who shouted, and the pirates who rushed fastest jumped into the sea.
It's a pity that this is just the beginning of the nightmare!
Sauron's figure disappeared again, and at the same time flew directly, the huge killer whale ran over all the way, and then dived to the bottom of the sea, and after overturning a large area of clippers in a row, he opened his bloody mouth and swallowed the unlucky eggs who jumped into the sea one by one.
It's the sea!
Trying to kill killer whales in the sea is simply a dream with their strength.
"Rush!"
"Kill them all! Kill the narwhal! β¦β¦β
There was a howl of excitement on the warship in the distance, it was absolutely impossible for this group of garbage to fight head-on, but if they were to beat the water dogs, these guys would definitely be stronger than one another. After Dominating the Orca Whale, Sauron directly turned the situation around, and even an idiot could see that the strength of this wizard was unfathomable.
"Prepare for battle!"
Adele raised her long knife, her long fiery red hair fluttering in the wind, looking gorgeous and heroic, and she exclaimed, "All the spoils of the enemy are yours!" Whoever dares to take half a step back, the old lady will kill him! β
Another howl rang out.
It seems that she also knows what it takes to motivate these old fritters.
