Chapter 56: Rainy Night Raid
"Have you found their place?" The blonde-haired Shangjin asked the priest who had just finished communicating with the Fortune Lady.
"Yes, Lord Shangjin! Our Lord has sent down an oracle, shameless thieves in our north! ”
"Okay, inform the rest of the fleet, turn north, I'll see who gave them the guts!"
"The target is due north!"
"The target is due north!"
Dagger Bay, named because it resembles a dagger.
A pirate fleet, including the Seawolf, is being repaired here.
The water is so deep that there are rocks beneath the surface, and if you don't know what the water is like, you'll run aground here and be frozen by the cold waters and breezes.
The wind and waves were unusually strong tonight, and even the pirates standing guard in the eagle's beak hole of the cliff were blown by the cold wind to make a fire in the cave to keep warm, and it was impossible for a ship to brave the wind and rain in such weather.
But that doesn't apply to the magical power of the Woggin Church warship Sea Fortress.
As soon as all the tempestuous winds entered the vicinity of the legendary battleship, they turned into a warm breeze and a cold drizzle, as if they were not traveling on the raging sea, but were boating on the calm Lake Maas.
With such a powerful magic warship, the entire fleet is like a sharp arrow straight into Dagger Bay.
"My lord, what are you worried about? Those shameless thieves will inevitably be defeated by us and erected at the gate of the Emerald City to dry. "A young girl dressed in white and gold-painted clothes came to Shangjin's room with a pot of fresh tea and hot cookies, which was arranged with a circle of ventilation, heat preservation and smoothness, and magic candles around it illuminated the room that could hold small banquets, as if she were in the Emerald City instead of the sea.
"Bella, do you really think this rabble would dare to covet the property of my Wojin church?" Delia meant something.
"What do you mean?"
"Those bitches can't sit still!" The coldness in Di Liya's tone couldn't be suppressed even if the magic circle that filled the entire room couldn't be suppressed.
Although Bella, as a seedling with great potential, is deeply loved by Delia Shangjin, it is better for her to interfere less in the affairs of this kind of big man.
The room fell silent suddenly, and even the small sound of creaking and chewing cookies could be heard, and despite her beautiful appearance and elegant demeanor, Delia felt like a giant dragon gnawing at its prey in a dragon's den.
"My lord, we've found them!" A voice came from the ball-shaped communication crystal on the table, the voice of Amos, the head of the Knights of Emerald City Workin.
"Leave no one behind, kill them all." Di Liya took a sip of hot tea and said lightly.
"Yes!"
It was too cold outside today, so the pirates brought rum and bacon ashore and spontaneously held a bonfire. Hooking shoulders and backs one by one is not fighting for the amount of alcohol, or getting together to play dice. There was even a duel between sworn enemies on the spot, which attracted everyone to watch and place bets and coax loudly.
Barnier couldn't stand the noise, so he came out with a glass of mead, and found a sheltered place to be alone.
Barnier tilted his head to the dark night sky, his eyes unfocused. He really likes this way of being in a daze and helps him relieve stress.
There was a sudden "boom" in the cavern, waking Barnier from his world. He turned his head to see that the two people who turned out to be a life-and-death duel finally divided the winner and loser, and the pirate who won the money shouted loudly, and the loser scolded and scolded, and soon from a verbal conflict, it evolved into a small-scale brawl.
But the leaders of the pirates continued to drink and eat meat as if nothing had happened, as if it were not his own subordinates who were beaten and stabbed. Pirates are under a lot of pressure, whether it is a natural disaster or a man-made disaster, they seem to be stepping on a wire forward, so from time to time these pirate leaders have to relax and relax their subordinates, this kind of brawl with a knife in the ass is the best way.
"A rabble!" Barnier turned his head dismissively.
"Boom!!" In the distance, a fire suddenly lit up in the pitch-black sea, and then with a loud bang, he smashed on the rocks behind him like an unconscious sack.
Barnier felt the shaking around him and barely stood up against the rock. He felt blood draining from his body, and his right hand was covering his right eye at some point.
He could feel a slippery orb landing in his palm, which was his right eye.
When he was suddenly attacked, Barnier had only one thought in his mind, to hide in a safe place, and what safer place than in a cave.
But before he could take two steps, he stumbled under his feet, and the eyeballs in his palms almost flew.
It was a pirate's thigh, and I don't know when it was blown up here.
Barnier continued to walk deeper and shallow in the direction of the cave, the road was not smooth, but fortunately the ships docked in the bay were ignited, and the skyrocketing fire illuminated the way, saving him a lot of trouble.
I don't know how long it took for him to finally return to the cave. Then he sat down against the wall and stabilized his mood a little before he began to perform the recovery technique.
Perhaps because he was concerned about his own eyes, Barnier's recovery technique was performed like a textbook standard, not only did his eyes return to his sockets, but the heavy or light abrasions on his body were also healed.
blinked, and found that his eyesight was still there, and he was completely relieved.
And it was only at this time that he heard the shouts of a messy pot of porridge outside.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! ”
"It's Wauching Church!"
"Damn, Bob, where are you!"
"Help me! I have a broken leg ......"
"Fight back! You cowards, do you hear me! Counter ......"
......
Zod's face is now pale, although the shelling just now did not directly hit the main ship Seawolf, but it set fire to an armed merchant ship he had just captured, and there was a considerable part of his own harvest there, and now it was all over!
"One eye, what are your men eating?! The enemy has touched the door of the house, and there is no warning yet! An old woman with a withered face waved her fingers like chicken claws in front of Zord's wav.
"Alright, old ghost, what's the use of talking about this now! Now the most important thing is to get out! Otherwise, we're all going to die here! Zod took out his trident and slammed it into the reef beneath him.
Seeing that the reef comparable to iron stone was easily pierced, everyone wisely closed their mouths. No one wants to mess with this furious sea wolf.
You can't be reasonable or compromise when dealing with pirates, but you have to whip them hard to make them cooperate. One eye has experienced this for so many years, and now it seems that this conclusion is extremely correct.
But how do you break through?
Now it appears that the Church of Wauking surrounded the sea outside the harbor, like a turtle caught in an urn, and used artillery fire to cover the blow in turn. Even because of the weather, the first wave of attacks did not completely destroy the pirates' counterattack. But as long as it continues like this, the balance of victory will definitely slowly fall to the side of the Emerald City.
So Zod can only choose the plan of forcibly breaking through, and the time must be fast, and he must tear a hole before this net is completely closed.
But who is going to do this scapegoat?
Looking at a group of old foxes counting stars, Zod decided that he could not force a small pirate to eat and let them be substitutes, but in this way, the chance of escape would be very short, and his wealth would inevitably shrink again.
"I can do you a favor!" Barnier walked out slowly, breaking the awkward silence.
He deliberately didn't look at Zod, who once boasted about Haikou and called the Emerald City fleet "come and go" and now sneered.
"Lord Daniel, it's great to have you here!"
"Praise to the goddess of the sea!"
......
Barnier shook his finger to stop the sycophancy.
"But I want thirty percent of your wealth this time!" After Barnier said this, the scene instantly fell silent.
Thirty percent! Even if they are captains and leaders, they only get sixty percent, and he wants to divide half of the wealth when he opens his mouth, which is a robbery while the fire is burning! It just doesn't make sense.
But they didn't dare to say it, but they had to show that they were seriously thinking.
"I agree!" Zod agreed without hesitation, he gained the most, and even if he paid 30%, he could keep most of his property.
"I agree!" The ghost woman then took a stand.
The two pirates both took a stand, and the rest of the people couldn't make any waves, and they all agreed.
After signing the contract in the presence of the goddess of the sea, Barnier led the group to the port.
Barnier recited the incantation, and a large black shadow floated up from the water!
The rotten canvas, the hull of the ship covered with seaweed shells, and the chill that it brought with it as soon as it appeared!
"It's, it's the ship of the dead!" Someone couldn't help but cry out.
As if alarmed by these words, one undead creature after another emerged from the middle deck of the ship, and then a cable like a predatory python grabbed the pirate who had just spoken and dragged it to the ship with a whoosh.
"Save ......" The ghosts on those ships were still in the air, and they couldn't wait to enjoy his breath of life, so before they could finish a sentence, they had already become a gray and cold corpse.
Daniel was sweating on his forehead at this time, constantly calling for the main soul of the ship of the dead, this legendary strength of the magic puppet is not yet under his control, if he didn't have the token given to him by the high priest, maybe he wouldn't even be able to call it out.
Everyone also saw that something was wrong, this guy seemed to be a giant beast that had just woken up, and he casually hunted a prey to fill the empty stomach pouch. But looking at its size, it was clear that the emaciated pirate just now would not be able to satisfy its appetite.
At this moment, the spirits of the undead on the ship of the dead suddenly fell silent, and Daniel finally subdued them with the token of the high priest.
Watching the ship of the dead slowly sink again, sliding out a long and shallow water mark pointing directly in the direction of the Emerald City's fleet, everyone let go of a hanging heart.
......
"Alright, Blotto, if you don't want to, leave now, and we'll act as if nothing happened." Thornton. Deco said as he looked at Blotto, who had a tangled face.
"Hehe, you're kidding. Lord Thornton, it's my blessing to serve the adults, how can I hold back at the end of the day, I'm just worried that I won't be able to fool them. When Broto heard this, he was immediately excited, and immediately made a flattering statement.
"Don't worry, with you, the director of the gold coin auction house Emerald City, they will definitely not suspect it."
Blotto couldn't help but cry out in his heart, knowing that he would not be in this troubled water. I originally thought it was just a second generation to come to Emerald City to gild, but I didn't know that it was even worse than this. I was going to go up again when I was about to retire, but I didn't expect to pit myself, and now I can't go up or down, so I can only rush forward.
"Director Blotto, how come you have time to come to the temple today?"
"Haha, it turned out to be Captain Brian! It's not an accident on the sacrificial fleet, I specially brought my men down today to discuss with Lord Field about the bereavement of the crew on the fleet. ”
"Okay, this way, please!"
