Chapter 326: Pretending to be a ghost
On the broken rear fleet, six warships were quietly moving slowly with a quarter sail.
The six captains were all feeling irritated and pacing back and forth anxiously, and Raven, the head of the ship, had been approaching the enemy fleet for an hour by order of Pomless.
For fear of irritating the enemy fleet, the six ships waited slowly in front of them, not daring to get too close to the enemy fleet.
But an hour was so long that the six captains almost doubted that Raven had surrendered to the enemy.
Raven's three-pole galleon returned, bringing good news that had deceived the enemy fleet. If it weren't for the frenzied cheers of the royal guards on Raven's ship, the six captains would have almost thought it was a hoax.
Arriving at Raven's ship via a small boat, the six captains learned that Raven had deceived the enemy by pretending to be a ghost ship. In the face of such an unbelievable thing, they naturally couldn't help but be stunned for a while, in fact, no matter how unbelievable they felt, the mountains of rebel treasures in Raven's cabin made them have to believe it.
You know, the Guards who served as sailors on Raven's ship were not all the way to Raven. There is no possibility of buying it at all, these guys are completely unanimous, claiming to be illusionists and pretending to be ghost ships to trap each other.
When they heard Raven's reason for retreating from the enemy, they opened their mouths even more in shock?
"Prince Fili, no, Princess Fili is really being targeted by the Immortal King Andrew?" A captain asked.
"I hope not. But the possibility is too great. I now ask you to give me all my aid to His Excellency Pounles. Rescue Princess Fili. ”
The six captains stood up in unison, stood upright, and slapped their chests with one fist: "Obey the order—in the name of the sea eagle soaring in the sky, we will surely fight to the last man." ”
Seeing off the captain, Raven ordered a full sail. The hull of the ship shook slightly, as if it was being pushed forward by a pair of invisible gale giant hands, and the already fast speed was immediately a few points faster, and the six warships behind him followed closely with the same sails.
After the break, the fleet re-approached the storm circle of the Stygian Storm, which is unique to the Sea of the Dead, and has extremely supernatural properties.
The first is that the scope of a storm is smaller than that of a normal storm. It is generally a radius of 20 nautical miles.
The intensity of the relative storm is very large, only strong wind and rain on the periphery, but in the core area, under the storm, it can even set off a triangular wave 15 meters high.
Raven didn't plan to use the boat to storm the Stygian Storm Zone, all he had to do was to save the princess after Pomres failed and before Andrew could do it.
Hovering outside the storm zone, even in the dark of night, you can feel as if several large, heavy black curtains have descended from the sky at the end of the horizon.
The purple thunder flashed incessantly in the dark curtain, and the rumbling thunder could be heard clearly even from ten nautical miles away. Everybody knows it. The great storm that erupted there was wildly destroying everything that dared to enter its territory.
The six captains were anxious, but Raven held them down.
"To go in is to die together. There is still a glimmer of life waiting outside. Trust Lord Pomles' Ark Royal. ”
Of course. In his heart, Raven wished that the brain-dead bastard would die early and be overborn. It's good to die by yourself, and you can make a total destruction example to give [Ocean Gate] a chance to make things difficult for Raven.
Remembering that he didn't know what [Ocean Gate] was asking for, Raven became irritable. I hate this kind of trial that doesn't give a clear goal.
Looking at the storm on the horizon sweeping forward, the fleet can only follow the storm, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a race of life and death. Go fast, you have to put yourself on it. If you go slowly, maybe after the storm, the rescue will not be timely. I couldn't even pick up the princess's bones.
Even though it was the periphery of the storm, I could still feel the rough waves of the sea crashing wildly against the hull. It seemed as if the next moment was going to overturn not only the entire ship, but even the entire plane.
Because of the headwind, the four-cornered sail was put away early, and only the spinnaker was still working. All the pendants on the ship had been blown so crookedly that even the poles began to creak, as if they would break in the next second.
Because the hull shook too violently. Tampas and the Red Knight didn't dare to stick their heads out of the portholes and vomit, and they had to vomit on the deck or in the cabin, but luckily a large amount of seawater slapped into it, washing away the unpleasant smell.
After a storm in the middle of the night, the storm finally stopped at dawn.
Raven and six ships were able to pick up Ponles' bones. Oh, the remains. Originally, Raven also fantasized about picking up Princess Fili's corpse and then ending this trial with dignity.
Sure enough, it's not that simple.
Hearing a cheer, Raven knew that Princess Fili was saved.
With a chuckle in his heart, with a premonition, Raven looked his head into the distance.
On the eastern horizon, the waves are rising, and a huge shadow is rapidly approaching, and there are even tsunami-like waves around this shadow.
At this time, the Dolphin Prince's eyes suddenly widened, and judging by his expression, he should have recognized this thing, and immediately gestured to Raven to ask him to go up to the lookout. As soon as Raven dodged up, Sesila immediately said urgently: "Hurry up and find a way, that's Bald, the god of the underworld!" ”
Just look at that huge mountain-like volume, this thing is definitely a giant level ancient beast. With the existing manpower and ships to carry it, there is no play at all.
Looking at Balde's figure, the dolphin prince was extremely entangled: "If my divine power is still there, cleaning up this guy is like playing, I have not cut off its tentacles before." Can ...... now Alas—"
Now a group of gods is just a weakened incarnation.
Suddenly, Raven patted the dolphin prince on the shoulder: "Since we got a ghost last night, it's not bad to pretend to be a god." ”
Saisila was stunned: "Who is pretending?" ”
"You!"
"Huh?!"
"I know you're kind-hearted and can't bear to deceive people. Pretending to be someone else is somewhat deceiving. You're pretending to be yourself, aren't you? ”
Suddenly realizing that Raven had a point, he was completely speechless.
On the surface of the sea, a graceful singing voice suddenly sounded, echoing endlessly across the entire ethereal and dead sea!
All the survivors were shocked, what the hell is this?
A huge apparition appeared on Raven's three-pole sailboat, and it was one of the few sea gods, the medium-powered Dolphin Prince, the Deep Sea* Saisila. I saw him holding a deep-sea trident, holding forward proudly, with seaweed hair that was windless and automatic, and he looked like he was not angry and arrogant even if he stood here.
"Bald, you scum, get out of the way!!" In the perfect voice of Shanny, Saisila's majestic voice resounded in the sea of the dead!
The survivors were all jaw-dropping and frightened.
The sharp-eyed guy found that there was no fluctuation of divine power on this illusion, and it was completely a look.
Can such a watery phantom fool Balder?
"Five thousand years ago, I cut off two of your tentacles! Three hundred and eighty-five years ago, I cut you three more. Come on, come on, don't run away if you have the ability today, let me teach you a good lesson! Looking at Raven's note, Sesila read it aloud.
Seriously, Saisila's acting skills are terrible, but the advantage is that it is a true performance.
He doesn't need to pretend to be a voice at all!
Pretending to be a god for your own sake is also wonderful.
Over there, an unexpected and reasonable scene happened, when the huge ancient beast pounced more than a hundred meters in front of the ship, it suddenly let out an indescribable terrible roar, and anyone could hear that the voice full of great fear was completely mournful. It's like a cat meets a lion!
Immediately afterwards, Balde, the octopus of the god of the underworld who was obviously blowing up the sky, actually came alive on the surface of the sea with a big loop similar to a car flicking its tail and turning a corner, and released a large amount of fishy ink as if it was scared of feces and urine, and then desperately shook the huge tentacles and slapped the waves, turned around and fled desperately.
What is pretending? That's pretending!
Wallis, the white-haired monks, the evil monks, and the mortal sailors all looked at them with admiration.
"Can we get through this time without a fight?" Leila asked.
"Where is there such a cheap thing!" The Red Knight complained.
Like a crow's beak catering to the Red Knight, several huge shadows suddenly appeared on the sea next to the three-pole sailboat.
"Bang bang bang-" Three loud bangs were almost in no particular order, and the finished glyph sounded next to Raven's ship.
Then a huge mast broke through the waves, and then the knockoffs that had only pretended to be someone last night met the original - three ghost ships, including the Empire of Nothingfall, surrounded Raven and them.
As the smallest tonnage of the three ghost ships, the Immortal Empire was the fastest and the first to force Raven's three-pole sailboat. The sailors on Raven's ship were forced into a broadside battle before they even had time to fire their ballistas.
The ugly undead undead sailor, screaming and waving a rusty steel knife, rushed to the ship, his rotten face with an indescribable hideousness.
The battle entered the white heat at the first moment.
With two other larger-tonnage ghost ships, the Doomsday Roar and the Flying Sea Dragon, joining the fray, Raven's faction was instantly at an absolute disadvantage.
The mortal sailors were killed in a few turns.
The more powerful Imperial Guards are only struggling to support, and without the support of props that have special effects on the undead such as holy water, the effect of both sharp and blunt weapons is not good.
The more lethal is Wallis, and the Sun Elf's [Solar Arrow] is first-class in dealing with the undead, but this also causes Wallis to become the main target of the undead.
Whitehair, the Evil Monk, and Tampas could barely move, clinging to Wallis's side.
On the other side, Raven, Adri, Lyra, the Red Knight, and the Dolphin Prince are on the defensive.
Just when Raven thought that this trial was going to end like this, the voice of Shannie suddenly sounded in his ears again.
Elegant, insignificant, like the sound of the wind heard in the mountains, faintly, and indeed heard.
When his eyes fell on Shanny, Raven was shocked to find that Shanny was holding a conch as a microphone and singing to her heart's content, and at the same time, a divine light began to bloom on Shanny.
