Chapter 415: Pirates
Seeing that the atmosphere is becoming more and more solemn, there is a possibility that conflict may break out at any time. Thumb knew he couldn't wait any longer, and he had to take some risks, or the Tavern of the Gift of the Sea would be blown up by magic when it started. He wriggled his fat body, mustered up the courage to stand up and bowed.
"Dear Mr. Fashi, I am the owner of this tavern, and everyone calls me Thumb. Don't be offended, I think there must be a bit of a misunderstanding. Why don't you sit down and have a drink and talk about what's going on. ”
Hearing the fat man's words, the corners of Henry's mouth turned up slightly, revealing a sarcastic smile, followed by two steps forward, patted the other party's greasy face and asked, "Misunderstanding?" Don't be angry? Sit down and talk? Is it just you and the dozens of crumbs in the back? As long as I want, I can let you live at any time. So you'd better hurry up and find a reason, or you're going to be bleeding here. ”
"Well said! Why do you talk so much to these idiots who smell fishy, and they are all slaughtered and pulled down. As soon as Kogan saw that he was going to kill someone, a bloodthirsty expression immediately appeared on his face. He liked the feeling of an axe slicing open the other person's stomach, and of course, it would be better if he could pull the intestines out of it again.
"Do you hear that? I'm now very inclined to use this dwarf's solution to solve the problem, and no one will care if I kill you all and feed the sharks anyway. As he spoke, Henry's hands began to glow with a dangerous magical aura, ready to go on a killing spree. Not only does he intend to kill all the pirates in front of him, but he also wants to find and bloodied their lair.
Suddenly, a guy who looked like a boss shouted, "You can't kill us!" Otherwise, the Pirate King won't let you go! ”
"Oh? I didn't expect you guys to still have a backstage. Tell me, where is the Pirate King? Nälancer Islands. Or the Racing Channel? Henry asked with a sneer. He didn't care about the guys standing behind them. Don't say a pirate king. Even if the Pirate Kings of the world gather together, they will not be able to withstand the attacks of the legendary spellcaster. The reason why I ask more is to lock on to the target and then kill the door.
But the leader apparently didn't think so. He felt that the name of the Pirate King had frightened the enemy in front of him, and replied with some pride: "We are part of the Sixth Fleet of the Nelentel Islands, if you don't want to cause trouble, you'd better get out of the way, otherwise the Pirate King Decharic will let you know what is called monstrous anger." ”
There is no doubt that these guys are pirates of the Nlanthel Islands. However, Henry thought the name "De Charik" sounded familiar, but he quickly remembered the location of the Forbidden Prison in the game. There seems to be a pirate king on the island of Brinnro, who is called that. It seems that this guy's ambition is not small, and he actually reached into the city of Askatra, probably to take advantage of the time when the Am's fleet was completely wiped out to expand the scope of robbery.
However, he had clearly made a fatal mistake, and there were many people in the city who could not be provoked, such as the Masked Mage's Guild, such as the Council of Six, and Henry. Ancomé. As a level 30 legendary mage and druid, Henry now possesses the power to sink an entire archipelago to the bottom of the ocean.
Glancing at the smug leader, he snorted softly, raised his hand and snapped his fingers. I saw that this guy's head was like a rotten tomato. It exploded with a "bang". Red-white brains splattered everywhere, and almost every pirate had a little on their body and face. The headless corpse fell straight to the ground.
This is a unique second-level magic "Melson Skull Craniosm", which belongs to the necromantic system. It works by using the power of magic to send a mass of compressed air into the brain, and when the air expands, it crushes the brain and skull together. However, this spell will not work well for those with higher class levels, as a certain amount of magic resistance will prevent the air mass from entering.
The bloody scene stunned all the pirates. It's not that they haven't seen bloody scenes, but they are stupefied by this kind of unscrupulous killing. Heng used practical actions to prove that the so-called pirate king is not a fart in his eyes. Especially this kind of inexplicable death just now, no one would want to try it.
"Hahaha! Awesome! I love this scene! In particular, the sound of the explosion is so beautiful. Kogan, who was afraid that the world would not be chaotic, laughed and shouted. The wickedness of his nature was in full swing, and two little eyes kept on the heads of all the pirates.
Suddenly, Viconia picked up the magic chain and rushed forward, shattering a pirate's knee in an instant. The triple damage of acid, fire, and cold made the hapless bastard's calves look terrifying, as if they had been bitten by some terrifying beast. She sneered and pulled the injured leg hard, directly tearing off the calf and foot below the knee, and the ferocity of the dark elf was vividly reflected at this moment.
"Nope! Don't kill me! I know where the Pirate King is hiding! I know where the treasure is......" The tragic sight of the two men in succession caused the pirates to completely break down, and they fell to their knees and shouted. Most of them have a bit of a class level, but fools know that high-level spellcasters are just like playing against low-level melee classes.
Looking at these guys who were kneeling on the ground and begging for their lives, Henry suddenly had a new idea, and a strange smile appeared on his face unconsciously. He planned to kill the pirate king named Decharic and replace him, so that he could not only get a fairly powerful fleet for nothing, but also control the economy of Zhan Am.
You must know that there are many large and small islands in the area from the Nrainsel Islands to the Racing Strait, and no one has really counted the specific number, but it must be more than 10,000. These small islands provided a natural haven for pirates, who plundered passing merchant ships and sold looted goods and even people.
Everyone knows that sea freight is also cheaper and much faster than land shipping. As a result, merchants from all southern countries would travel through the area by boat before reaching the commercial capital of Ascatra to sell or buy goods. Of course, there are people who go around the open seas in a big circle, but the end is usually not very good, and all kinds of terrifying deep-sea monsters are often more dangerous than pirates. At most, pirates turn people into slaves, and they are still alive, but monsters only eat people in their stomachs.
It can be said that as long as there is frequent looting on this route, so that all the merchants dare not go to sea at risk, then Am's economy will plummet, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to keep even the overseas colonies. According to the information provided by Robert, the pirate kings of the Nälancer Islands usually controlled more than ten fleets, and the total number of warships reached about a hundred. At their strongest, they can even engage and win at the same time the regular navies of two countries.
There is no doubt that this is a very formidable sea force, and with the fact that Henry's own fleet suffered heavy losses during the invasion of the Sawa Fishmen, all but the ships in the Angome Islands are temporarily intact, and everything else is buried in the docks of the Baldur's Gate docks.
Although the widespread use of airships has replaced ships in some way, the load capacity is too far behind. What's more, there is a fatal problem, all his territories are close to the coast, and without a strong fleet patrolling regularly, I am afraid that it will not be long before a large group of outlaws are gathered.
Thinking of this, he decided to let the pirates go first and let them become the leading party. After all, the Nälancer Islands are so complicated that it is impossible to find the location of the Pirate King without being familiar with the situation there. After all, pirates are not good people, and in order to ensure their own safety, the Pirate King will often change hiding places, and Brinnroe Island should be just one of them.
However, this kind of thing was obviously not suitable for Henry to take action personally, so he whispered a few words in Su Li's ear, and the latter's face quickly showed a shocked expression, but it quickly returned to normal. A few minutes later, the guy sent all the pirates, including the tavernkeeper's thumb, to the union's dungeon with the help of a large number of thieves, and went straight to the docks with a large group of men, knowing that it was to seize the ship.
Looking at the leader of the thieves who came in and out, Viconia clearly felt the smell of conspiracy. She quietly came to Henry's side and lowered her voice and asked, "What are you doing here?" Could it be that you want to control these pirates? ”
"I'm going to kill the Pirate King in the bloodiest way possible, and give these idiots a good boost in their memory, so that they understand that there are some people who can't be messed with." Henry feigned annoyance. He knew that such a thing as secretly accusing pirates would definitely not be admitted, otherwise it would cause a lot of unnecessary trouble once it was known by the Council.
"Very good! I like men with a strong vindictive mentality the most. Viconia had an intoxicated expression on her face as she spoke, as if she had heard something sweet. For her, a tooth for a tooth and blood for blood is a normal thing.
"Damn! So we're going to get ready to sail by boat? Kogan asked, grimacing. Apparently, he was a landlubber like most dwarves, and maybe a little seasick.
Henry smiled and nodded. "Yes, but not now. It takes a little time to interrogate the captives, and I have to prepare an army......"
Before he could finish his sentence, a thief who had just walked in touched the corner a few times, and he didn't know what mechanism he had touched, and a wall was suddenly opened, and the strong smell of the sea came to his face. Without hesitation, Fei De rushed in with the people, and immediately after that, he heard a few screams from inside, and finally returned to calm. Within minutes, five bodies and boxes of treasure were carried out.
One of the thieves bowed respectfully and reported, "Boss, everything in here is here." ”
"Send these gold coins and gems to the guild for safekeeping first, and then hand them over to Su Li later. In addition, you will take over this tavern, and try to keep it as it is, and not make any public announcements. Henry gave the instructions succinctly. If he could, he wouldn't want to be involved with the thieves' guild at all. But it can't be helped, who let their thieves not be there. (To be continued......)
