Chapter 145: The Pirate Ship (First Update, Ask for Subscription)
Chapter 145
For three months, Su Yuan and the others did not encounter a single ship, saw an island, or land. In fact, for the sea, this is also considered normal. There are so many islands that you happen to come across. What do you think about making TV?
And at this time, they encountered an even more serious problem. That's when they lose motivation. That particular crystal, the power that can be stored is obviously limited. Maybe there's some way to recharge it. But Su Yuan and the others couldn't understand the principle of that thing at all. In short, it loses momentum.
Without power, this unique steel battleship in the world is basically a waste. If it weren't for the fact that food and water were still sufficient, the mentality of the guards might have gone wrong. They hoisted their homemade sails and barely managed to gain a meager amount of power. Continue your aimless drifting on the sea. It wasn't until about a hundred days later that the situation finally turned around.
In the distance, they saw a ship approaching them. In this world, it can be regarded as a giant sea ship. It looked like it should be a merchant ship, and Su Yuan saw that there were a lot of goods piled up on the ship. Most of the members are also dressed as sailors. It's just that Su Yuan quickly dispelled his naïve opinion, because in this era, maritime merchants and pirates are basically one.
Sure enough, the other party also saw his side from a distance. A group of people shouted and screamed, and dozens of sailors were instantly armed. The ship also sped up. Obviously, when he saw that Su Yuan and the others were only a few people, the other party had already switched to pirate mode.
It's just that when the two ships approached each other, there was another uproar among the people on the other side. Because they saw that it turned out to be a steel battleship. In this era, steel battleships are unimaginable to ordinary people. To put it simply, without understanding the relationship between density and buoyancy, a full-fledged steel battleship is basically impossible.
In addition to magic, the Valyrians also have extremely high achievements in various natural sciences, and it is understandable that they can build steel warships. But for the rest of the world, it's still far from it.
The steel battleship obviously deterred the other side. But there are too few people on Su Yuan's side. With only nine men, the Iron Battleship provoked the other party's desire to plunder. After some deliberation, they finally got the upper hand out of desire.
Su Yuan looked at the changes in the other party coldly, and explained to the people around him.
"Leave a few people as crew members, and clean up everything else."
More than a dozen hooks and locks were thrown from the wooden ship, and the eight guards did not stop them, but took a few steps back neatly, watching the other party's swordsmen jump onto the steel battleship.
The eight guards were actually quite excited. For no other reason, they have been studying with Su Yuan for more than a year. There were all kinds of adventures in Valyria. I know that my strength has increased significantly. But I don't know exactly how much it has grown. Now it's hard for someone to send it to the door, of course, we have to test it well.
A group of pirates who rob homes and houses are good opponents.
A guard named Thorne was the first to step forward. The four islands that were the first to jump on board were in front of you. Seeing that only one person had won, the islanders were also stunned for a moment. But the next second it pounced. They are the overlords of the sea in this generation, and they don't know how many lives they have in their hands, and too much killing makes them lose their sense of awe, and they pounce directly when they see people.
Thorne stood still. For some reason, he always felt that the four pirates on the other side were moving slowly, and at the same time, they were full of flaws. He even thought there was something wrong with his eyes, but when he drew his sword, he understood. It's not that they're too slow, it's that they're too fast.
There are eight of them, and their strength is almost the same. Each other is improving, so you don't feel the change in each other. But now compared with outsiders, the gap is immediately apparent. Thorne felt like he could see through all of the other man's movements.
He leaned lightly to the side, avoiding a slashing scimitar. Then the Valyrian sword in his hand was lifted up, and the right hand holding the knife was easily severed.
Two blademen attacked from the left and right flanks at the same time. Thorne didn't retreat, but forward, and his body rushed forward, crashing into the middle of the two. At the same time, the body rotated, and the long sword in his hand drew a complete circle. Two heads rose into the sky, blood gushing out, shattering the fourth pirate's ambitions.
But Thorne, a mercenary-turned-fellow, doesn't have any mercy under his hands. A spike with a long sword in hand. The other party raised his scimitar in a panic to resist. But Thorne's long sword was gently raised in the process of thrusting, and the sword that was originally stabbed in the chest turned into a stab in the throat.
Poof, the long sword passed through the body. The fourth pirate also fell on the deck. By this time, nearly thirty pirates had already jumped on board. They saw what they saw, but instead of being afraid, the pirates aroused a certain ferocity in them.
More than thirty pirates rushed up at the same time. Byron and the others also drew their swords and stepped forward at the same time.
The battle lasted less than two minutes. This is due to the fact that the guards are testing their strength as much as possible. As a result, they found out that the pirates were too dish. It's like an adult beating a child. When the last pirate fell, the ship on the opposite side also noticed that something was wrong. They screamed and tried to escape from the terrible steel battleship.
Byron looked at the pirate ship that wanted to escape, and suddenly made a bold move. He reached out and untied his armor, and then with a run-up, the whole person jumped into the air and jumped directly onto the other party's boat. The people who were still standing on the two ships froze.
You must know that the two ships are not directly close to each other. After all, one of them is a steel battleship, and if they were close together, the pirate ship would probably have disintegrated long ago. The distance between the two boats is more than five meters, and with the railing, normal people would not try this kind of action.
Byron's body rolled on the deck of the pirate ship. The long sword in his hand swept over several crew members with knives in their hands. At this time, the others reacted and drew their swords to resist first. But at this time, inspired by Byron, the remaining seven guards also made similar moves.
The battles in Westeros are all hard-bridged and hard-bodied, and at most agile swordsmen, against heavily armored warriors. There has never been such a flowing fighting style of cornices and walls. This thing belongs to domestic martial arts, as well as Hollywood science fiction films.
But now, Byron has set a precedent. They discarded their armor and burst out with full speed, a level of agility that was beyond the pirate's ability to deal with. In fact, when all eight guards jumped over the five-meter sea area and landed on their ship, all the crew members of the pirate ship fell to their knees and gave up resistance.
They even bowed down to Su Yuan's ship and chanted in Valyrian, Lord of the Sea.
