Michael had been waiting in the dark of night for a long time, but in order to be able to clean up the thorn in Donk's side, he was willing to let him wait all night.

At last there was a movement on the sea, and several tiger sharks with strips of military insignia wrapped around their arms came up, climbed the guardrail, turned over and jumped onto the deck, and reported on their knees: "Mr. Paul has arrived here with five hundred of his kind, and will arrive in less than three minutes." ”

Michael's eyes narrowed, and he smiled coldly.

"Very well, you go down and answer it. When it arrives, ask it to come up and talk to me alone. ”

"Yes!" The tiger sharks were ordered to leap back into the sea, splashing a column of waves several yards high on the dim surface.

The report of the tiger sharks was correct, and a moment later the Mr. Paul appeared and leaped onto the deck of the Angel of Wisdom. Its movements are very light, and when it comes out of the sea, it doesn't even make a splash.

Michael looked at the octopus man in front of him.

Paul was ostensibly about the height of a Terran, but his body was free to expand and expand, and could even swell up to five times larger in a fit of rage. Its brain is bare, its face is long, and it has several small tentacles hanging down, three large soft tentacles on each side of its body, and its legs are thicker than its arms. Its body was very flexible, it looked limp, and it was covered with fleshy suckers, and those large and small tentacles writhed all the time, quite disgusting.

Although the octopus man in front of him looked like a monster, judging by the eyes of the shimmering huo, it had the same intelligence as the race on the shore.

"I have admired Mr. Paul's name for a long time, and it is a great honor to see him today." Michael took off his hat, his eyebrows slightly raised, and his gaze sharp.

"I am both famous and notorious, I once attacked a port, and to you people on the shore, I am your enemy. Don't pretend to be in front of me, just get down to business. Paul said with a grimace.

Michael was not annoyed, and beckoned to the seventh-order martial artist: "Since you are quick to talk, I won't talk to you anymore, come here." He led Paul into the cabin, through the carpeted corridor, and into a living room. In the middle of the room was a blue chart with models of twenty sailing ships, which were much simplified but could still easily identify each ship, such as the Flame and the Black Pearl of the Dragon Pirates.

"You sent the Sea Beast Clan to my 'Octopus Tribe' and claim that there is a deal to negotiate, so go ahead and say it now." Paul sat down unceremoniously across from him, six supple arms spread out on the table.

A cold light flashed in Michael's eyes, and he had only one purpose for finding this seventh-order martial artist in the sea to come here.

"In a few days there will be several sailing races at sea, and these twenty ships will test their guns and speed, and among these ships there is one of my enemies. I want to clean him up, but I can't do it, so I want to ask you for help. If you clean him up, it will turn into an ordinary Sea Beast attack, and I will be able to avoid being held accountable. This enemy of mine is a sixth-order swordsman, and his ship is a fourth-order magic ship, which is very difficult to deal with. But don't worry, I've made a detailed plan, and if you follow it, you'll be able to do it. ”

"The sixth-order swordsman is nothing, I will kill it with a shot, but the fourth-order magic ship is very tricky." Paul grimaced, "Tell me about your plan first." If it is possible, I grant your request, for I have asked you too. ”

The corners of Michael's mouth lifted, he just knew that Paul needed help now, so he came to Paul. He picked out the models of the three ships, the Flame, the Black Pearl, and the Wise Angel, moved them forward one by one, and explained his plan.

Of the four races, only the Magic Boat Race was the right game to take on Donk. In ordinary boat racing, the speed of the sailboat is not too much different, and if Paul makes a move at this time, it is tantamount to looking for death, and the masters of the two countries will attack one after another and kill it. Although the two shooting competitions were held by the ships alone, the voyage was too short, and if there was an abnormal movement, both countries would rush to the rescue in time, but it still could not be done. Only in that magic boat racing competition, the voyage is long enough that there is room to start.

After the Magic Boat Racing Race begins, the Black Pearl will definitely use the Dark Sea to drag the other ships and give the Flame a chance to extend the distance. Michael had seen this kind of dark sea, and knew how powerful it was, and the sailboat was trapped in it, and he didn't want to move. And there are rumors that claim that the Black Pearl's capabilities have been strengthened, and it can already release more than a dozen of these dark seas! Under the powerful power of the Black Pearl, the other sailing ships had to watch dryly as the Flame was far ahead, and the only one who could keep up with the Flame was the Wise Angel, which was also able to fly!

The Angel of Wisdom can use its flying ability to force the Flame to fly as well until the Flame's furnace reaches its limit. At that time, the Flame will be forced to land at sea, unable to take off again, and may even run out of magic stones.

The speed of the magic ship is fast, and the gap is large, and by the time the magic furnace of the Cangyan reaches its limit, it should already be several nautical miles behind the other ships.

On the chart, the Flame was left alone.

"Now that this sea stage play is played, it's time for you and your people to appear. With your strength, you are enough to break through the bottom of the Flame, and as long as the ship enters the water, it will slowly sink. Donk can't sit idly by, he will definitely go to the sea to fight you, he will not be your opponent on the shore, let alone in the sea, you will definitely win. But it's useful for me to keep him, you just have to break his limbs, don't kill him. After you subdue him, remember not to let him drown, and use this water-repellent bead to make sure he can breathe at the bottom of the sea. Michael pulled out a round, smooth white bead from his pocket, "He's mixed up to the point where he is today, maybe he has a water-repellent bead on his body, if that is the case, he will save this step." ”

"After the Flame sinks, you and your people will kill all the people on board, start quickly, we don't have much time. When all of their men are dead, you tow the Flame under the sea, find a sandy place to bury it, and don't move around, and I'll take care of the ship afterwards." There's only so much you do, isn't that hard for you? ”

"A sixth-order swordsman plus a fourth-order magic ship, if my people and I attack recklessly, we will be able to clean it up. But the question is, what if something goes wrong in the game and it goes beyond your expectations? What if there were other magic ships around the Flame? What if the ship's furnace wasn't exhausted? Paul asked calmly.

Michael's eyebrows furrowed slightly, he didn't want to kill Donk without fail, and snatch the Resurrection Spring. But such a good thing does not exist, and Donk is attached to the behemoth of the Greenland Empire, and cannot act openly. When this two-state exercise is over, Donk will definitely leave with Greenland's fleet, and at that time, there will be no chance. If you want to eradicate Donk sooner, you have to gamble now!

"Murdering a sixth-order powerhouse will inevitably be risky, and if it was a simple matter, I wouldn't have invited you here." Michael gritted his teeth and made a difficult decision, "In this game, if there is a good time to make a move, you can help me do it, and if the Flame is never alone, you can not make a move." I promise you, no matter whether the thing succeeds or fails, I will give you the reward you want, what do you think? ”

"Is there such a good thing in the world?" Paul looked incredulous.

"It's okay, I'm willing to suffer this loss in order to deal with Donk. You can talk about your conditions. Michael leaned back in his chair, knowing what Paul was facing, and could guess what he would ask for.

Paul's expression darkened, and he explained: "There was a plague in my tribe two months ago, and many of the people have peeled and rotted, and more than 500 people have died, and more than 2,000 people are in a state of dying. After I have done this for you, I would like you to find a priest and a doctor to treat my people. That's all I have to ask for. ”

Really!

Michael smiled, it was difficult for the Sea Beasts to find a priest to heal, but it was easy for him. He had received news of the outbreak of the plague in the Octopus tribe from the report, and this tribe was not far away, and under all kinds of favorable conditions, he would come up with this plan today.

"Deal. This is not difficult for me, whether you succeed this time or not, I promise to heal your people. ”

Paul thought for a moment and added, "I have one more request, that among the priests you send, there must be priests of the sixth rank or above. If you were to fool me with a low-ranking priest, I wouldn't agree. ”

"It's natural, do you have any other requirements?"

"Nope."

"Good, the deal is done. Gods above, I wish us a happy cooperation. Michael smiled and stretched out his hand, and Paul also reached out with soft tentacles, and the two hands were clasped together, making a covenant to symbolize the surname.

This agreement formed a big haze hand and stretched out to Tang Ke, who was unaware.

...... "Bump!" Touch! Touch! ”

Three shells were fired one after another, shattering the target floating on the sea, and the people on the Cangyan saw that the three shots were all hit, and they thundered with joy. After the shooting, Bruce picked up a few mistakes for the rookie gunners and explained the correct way to do it.

Donk looked at it from the sidelines, and nodded secretly, Bruce is a very good person, he talks less and does a lot of work, which can be of great use in the future. When it comes to strength, Bruce is on par with One-Eye, and he can become the mainstay of the pirate group in the future.

This is the terrible thing about the Pirate King system, Tang Ke is now recruiting a fifth-order powerhouse at will, but other forces don't know how much time it will take to cultivate and win over a fifth-order powerhouse.

All he lacks now is bonus points, and as long as there are enough bonus points, he can assemble a terrifying elite team. Because there are always not enough bonus points, Donk is very focused on the next few games.

"You captains and gunners must work harder to win those four races. If I can win the top three, I will definitely be rewarded. Donk shouted encouragement, and the gunners, who were discussing enthusiastically, turned their heads and expressed their determination.

"Commander, I have something to ask you." Bruce walked over.

"You say."

Bruce stood still, and elaborated: "The goal of those two games was to hit 100 targets in the allotted time. What I want to ask is, how many targets do you want me to hit in the game? ”

"Of course, the more the merrier."

"I hope you can prescribe an accurate number."

"Why?"

"Because I like to have a clear goal. For example, if I hit as many targets as I want, you reward me, and if I don't meet the requirements, you punish me. Bruce said calmly, obviously not on a whim.

"So you like to have a clear line of rewards and punishments." Tang Ke nodded, this is a bit military, "Okay, I agree to your request and set a death target for you." I ask you to hit 20 of your 100 targets, and if you reach your goal, I will reward you with 1,000 gold coins, and for every target you exceed, I will give you an additional 100 gold coins. What do you think? ”

When the other gunners heard this, they all gasped, and they knew better than anyone how difficult it was to hit these twenty targets.

"If I work hard, I should be able to achieve this goal. And what about the punishment? ”

"A hundred lashes." There was a little more coldness in Donke's tone.

Bruce agreed with an unchanged expression, "That's it." ”

Donk thought it was a good idea, so he set a corresponding standard of reward and punishment for several other gunners. But there were inevitably some errors in the standards he set, and some gunners had difficulty completing their tasks, causing a lot of pressure. However, there is pressure to be motivated, and with a clear goal in mind, the gunners trained harder that day.

…… Finally, the official competition is ushered in.

On the first day, there were 20 ships from each country.

The rules of the race were simple, the sailboat went around a circular area and, in half an hour, knocked out a hundred targets along the coast. The time for this half hour was very tight, and even if the sailboat could not be fired, it would be very difficult to complete the race. The result of the competition is naturally based on who hits the most targets, the top three can get a variety of precious magic equipment, and the next three boats can also get corresponding monetary rewards.

Donk brought a total of three ordinary boats, one of which was a galleon, which was specially used to participate in the shelling competition. He had a limited number of gunners, so he gave up a place in the competition and gathered all the gunners on one ship to ensure strength.

After the start of the race, the twenty boats set off one after the other. There were no waves in the competition, the players from both countries went all out, and Tang Ke's side played very well, but only finished fifth, after all, the people of the two empires were not given for nothing.

In this shelling competition, four gunners failed to achieve the expected goal, took notes, and waited for the game to be finished and sent down.

Bruce overfulfilled his task, hitting twenty-two targets and receiving a bounty from Donk, a hunk orc who offered to use the money to buy a pet he liked.

The second race was held, which was a race of ordinary boats, and the rules of this race were that twenty ships from the two countries set off together and proceeded in a triangular trajectory, and whoever reached the finish line first would win, for a total of 80 nautical miles.

In this game, Donk dispatched two fast ordinary boats, and he himself was put on the battle and personally took the helm. But after one round of competition, it was even worse than the previous one, with one boat finishing fifth and one boat finishing eighth.

Fortunately, Donk had already expected such a result and was not too discouraged, and he was really optimistic about the two games of the Magic Boat.

The third game was a bombardment of the Magic Ship, with both the Flame and the Black Pearl appearing. Because the magic ship can be powerful, the rules of this game are much harsher than ordinary ship shelling, and the same hundred targets must be smashed in ten minutes!

Bruce and Norman's gang of gunners worked hard and played well in the game, and with the help of Donke's new Red Devil slalom gun, they won second and fifth place in one fell swoop, and finally got a decent result.

The second prize in the Magic Boat Bombardment Contest is the Icescale Armor, which is a treasure that consists of metal plates that can be attached to the hull of a sailboat. In addition to the advantage of being very lightweight and not affecting speed, this armor also has a high elemental resistance, and when an elemental attack hits it, the lethality is greatly reduced.

It costs at least 30,000 gold coins to buy these Ice Scale Ship armors, which is quite expensive. But compared to the material rewards, what made Donk even happier was that he got 3,000 reward points.

The all-important fourth race has finally begun, and this magic ship race is the grand finale of the four races!

The weather was beautiful, it was a sunny day, and the wind was just right, perfect for the race.

On the surface of the sea, twenty magic ships with different styles are already eager to try, like fierce beasts that have risen from their nests in the morning. Other ships from both countries were also entrenched on both sides of the sea, and the decks of each ship were full of people, all eyes on the participating ships. Everyone was enthusiastically discussing the game, speculating who would win the championship, especially the gamblers who placed bets.

Donk is determined to win this game and his fighting spirit is very high. He stood proudly on the helm of the Flame, clutching the rudder.

As the race approached, twenty magic boats lined up on the starting line, and the order of the boats was arranged according to the lot, which was very fair. Among these ships are the seeded players of the Space-Timer, Thor, and Wagon Soleil. Donk's Flame was placed in fifth place, and coincidentally, his nemesis Michael was placed next door, which was really narrow.

Michael was also on the bridge of the Angel, but he was not the helmsman of today. He turned his head, stared at Tang Ke not far away, showed a cold smile, and said in his heart: "Tang Ke, today is your death!" ”
