Chapter 740: The Battle of the Estuary Part I (Part 3)
The volley against the Dragon Witch Cult quietly broke out at four or five o'clock in the morning.
The rumbling of cannon rang out from the coastline of Irip, and solid buckshot dragged a long ribbon of meteor light towards the undead warship that had just sailed out of the cavern.
Players of the Cult of the Dragons poured out of the cavern and fought the Ivanthor faction on the shore.
By the time Qianfan, Jiemi, Lalala, and the Bloodline siblings went online early in the morning, the faction war had already started one night, and with the increase in the number of players online during the day, the war began to enter the white-hot stage.
The team hurriedly pulled out the camp and hurried after the Charles.
Instead of rushing to the corpse-strewn battlefield of the coast, the squad headed in the opposite direction, marching towards the northern trading city of Bosku.
Charles had spoken a lot with the leaders of the Avansor League last night, and from Master Harpist Guy, he had learned important information about the Dragons' Witch Cult's presence in Poscu.
Bosku is not a small city with a population of only a few thousand like Irip, and the permanent inhabitants of nearly twenty or thirty thousand can actually allow Bosku to gain a foothold on the wasteland trails at the end of the Stormhorn Mountains and Sunset Mountains.
In the Shire's plan for river development, Bosku is a city that must be addressed, or taken under his command or destroyed, with no third option.
The geographical location of Bosku determined the city's important position in the Shire plan.
It is located in the lower reaches of the Thun River, almost guarding the mouth of the Thun River to the Dragon Lake, and the Bosku is in chaos, and the lord of the city is a human female thief. Under the rule of the thieves, Bosku naturally did not have a good reputation, and if the city was not resolved, even if inland river routes were opened in the future, few merchants would dare to trade along the Thun.
The most unbearable thing for the Charles is that there is actually a stronghold of the Dragon Witch Cult in Bosku!
Therefore, he strengthened his determination to eradicate the Dragon Witch Cult. This-stirring stick must not be left on the Dragon's Shores, let alone allowed to flee north, trying to take root in the Bosku or the mountains, otherwise it will not be Evanthor, but his Rock Collar who will not survive!
Regardless of the ruler, he probably did not want to see a stream of Dragonwitch cultists flee to their territory.
"It's here—"
After a short journey, the team came to the mouth of the Thun River where it joins Longhu.
A flat plain of river beach is formed here, where silt is deposited along with the mighty water, and the white sails of fishing boats and merchant ships can be seen in the distance.
Under the sun, the river and the vast Dragon Lake are spliced into a magnificent mountain and river scenery, and even the mood will be much broader here.
However, the six members of the team had no intention of watching the scenery, they were not scenery parties, at most they glanced at the bottom of their hearts and sighed a few times, and then turned their attention back to the camp mission.
"Hey......" The blood-descended brother and sister went offline, and they didn't know what happened last night. When they came to this place, they faintly felt the breath of Simon's blood.
Sou.
Three Bloodborns dressed in ornate tunics appeared silently.
"Your Excellency the Walker!" Both Kano and Yuta were surprised and saluted respectfully.
The Bloodborn Warrior and the Bloodline Wanderer ignored them, their eyes fixed on Charles in silver-white Mithril armor, a look of gritted teeth and resentment.
Charles didn't bother to look at the three bloods, instead staring at the woods near the sea and beckoning the team to come over.
"You're here......"
It was clearly an empty forest area, but a crisp and beautiful female voice came out, and then the six members of the team, including Charles, received a system prompt:
"Affected by 'group invisibility'."
"Go invisible."
After becoming invisible, the six were unable to see each other.
Ouch.
A panicked cry came from beside him, and Charles knew who it was as soon as he heard the voice, and he couldn't help but helplessly reach out and hold the blood-descended girl Lu Nai, "Don't run around." ”
"You, you ......" Lu Nai's voice was a little weird, shy and annoyed.
Charles pinched and knew what part he had grasped, so he silently removed his hand and said, "Just stand and watch, we don't need to meddle in this battle." and so on. ”
"Silence!" The Lich, also invisible, makes a sound.
The coastal forest fell silent.
About ten minutes later, there was a sudden sound of violent waves on the calm sea, and when he entered the invisibility, Charles blessed himself with the [Eagle Eye Technique], and his eyes could easily pass over the woods and see the sea more than a hundred meters away.
A white undead skeleton warship rose out of the water in the waves, and the protective film of the force field loomed around the hull, and the crew of the Dragon Witch Cult stood on the deck or on the white bone mast, neatly dressed and not showing the slightest trace of wetness.
The boat apparently floated after observing the surface of the sea, and after surfacing, it did not stop, and sailed straight to the entrance of the Thun River.
Seeing this, a cold light loomed in Charles' eyes.
Now the Thun is the reverse scale of him and the Rock Collar. The invasion of this inland river by the Dragon Witch Cult is a mortal enemy in the eyes of the Charr, and there is no possibility of easing.
"Whoosh"
A transparent figure flew out of the woods like an arrow from a string, and immediately after, there was a thunderous rumble over the estuary, and a strong magical aura gushed out in the sky, even more dazzling than the sun overhead.
A swirling purple-red energy rift appeared directly in front of the white bone warship, expanding from the size of a palm to a huge circular vortex with a diameter of nearly ten meters in the blink of an eye.
Zizizizi
The dark energy intertwined and collided in the rotating giant mouth, and the lightning flashed, and the bone warship was still more than ten meters away from the terrifying energy rift, but it was uncontrollably sucked by the power of the rift, click, and the enchanted solid white bone mast actually collapsed and broke at the moment when the rift stabilized, and the disciples looking at the sea on the mast suddenly screamed and fell into the sea.
Nine Rings Spell, [Chaos Abyss]!
The rift continued to suck at the skeleton warship, and a loud dragon roar came from the bottom of the sea, and the huge dragon shadow showed a hideous face after the waves fell.
It was a lich dragon, with no scales left on its body, only a silvery skeleton, as if the dried muscle tissue had atrophied into the skeleton.
The dragon lich can fly, but its wings are tattered like a tattered gray-black sail.
In fact, the Dragon Lich can transform itself into a human or other form through Transfiguration, but it is clear that this is an evil dragon that likes to move and live in a huge dragon body during his lifetime, and after transforming into a Lich, the evil dragon retains this savage characteristic.
If they were to be replaced by a metal dragon, facing the world in such an ugly form, it would be torture for them.
The dragon lich was emitting a dragon roar, and it used sonic spells, like bombs swooping into the sea, and the explosive water column more than ten meters high spread out around the skeleton warship, forming an extremely spectacular scene.
It was furious, and it was looking for the enemy who attacked the ship.
Soon, the dragon lich locked onto Ingrid's position, roared and slammed into the void gate in front of him, and the next moment it appeared above Ingrid's head, opening the bone dragon's mouth and spitting out a stream of gray-black dragon breath in a cone-shaped area!
[Spit Attack]!
Whoosh.
Intense electric light appeared in the sky.
The blue dragon can spit lightning, and it seems that this dragon lich is the legendary guardian of the ancient blue dragon in the stronghold of the Dragon Witch Cult.
Ingrid was finally broken by the dragon lich's spit, but when she was surrounded by electric light, a huge protective force field immediately spread around her, and the lightning dragon's breath collided with the protective wall of the force field, and was ejected one after another.
This is the [Avoidance Aura], the six-ring spell, and many middle and high-level mages add such a group aura spell to themselves and their partners when facing dragon creatures, which is very practical.
"Roar—"
The ancient blue dragon lich fully unfolded his aura of dragon power, and the condensed power shrouded the sea and the coast, and on the bone warship that was being sucked by the energy rift, all the disciples of the Dragon Witch Cult fell to the ground under the dragon power, trembling, whether it was a player or a native.
The blue dragon lich haunted Ingrid, and at this moment, an elderly mage with a white beard and gray robes calmly walked up to the bow of the ship and stood firm in the strong wind.
He held a two-handed bone wand with a crystal skull at the head.
He was casting spells, spells and gestures, and the hollow eye sockets and mouth of the crystal skull shot out with a thousand radiances.
【Advanced Disarming Magic】(Six Rings)!
It only took a short two seconds for the Necromancer to complete the spell cast. His skeletal wand was aimed at the energy rift that was slowly approaching, and a spell aura infused with arcane energy shot through the darkness, but the energy rift created by the Nine Rings spell only stopped vibrating for a moment, and then continued to generate unstoppable force, sucking and destroying the bone warship.
Screams and cries rang out on the deck.
Some believers who are not strong enough in their will and faith enough choose to escape by jumping into the water.
Thump.
One wave after another, like a domino effect, even the mid-level cultists began to flee for their lives. The Necromancer of the Dragon Witch Cult silently took in the chaos brought about by his surroundings and clenched his wands in both hands.
"Lord Bossville, retreat!" A high-ranking female priest in a purple robe ascended to the bow of the ship to persuade her.
"If you don't leave, it's too late!"
Another high-ranking warrior wearing armor with the dragon witch cult pattern stood behind the necromancer and tried to persuade him, "Even if we lose this stronghold, as long as you are still here, we have hope of making a comeback!" Let's go! ”
The battle in the sky is continuing.
The roar of the ancient blue dragon lich gradually revealed a kind of anxiety and panic.
Obviously, shortly after the fight with Ingrid, the dragon lich fell into a passive disadvantage.
"No—"
The necromancer silently looked around the warship, and then stared at the energy rift that was getting closer and closer, his robe and white beard were blown by the hurricane that sucked at the rift, but his tone was still steady and resolute, "We have a hidden, fortified stronghold in the mountains northwest of Postoku, as long as we can bring the cultists there safely, I promise that in less than a year, we will be able to return to Evanthor as rulers!"
