Chapter 8: A Fair Duel
The artillery fire subsided, sensing the disappearance of Shang Biao and Thomas, several small boats were quickly lowered on the battleship, and dozens of pirates paddled their oars to the isolated island full of smoke and fire.
"If you get rid of that Lars, are you sure you can take these pirates?"
Shang Biao asked Thomas, if it was just to complete the mission, he could leave with Thomas's edgeworth.
However, the looting mission was not yet completed, and he was not willing to let go of the battleship sent to the door.
"Oh! The god of the sea, honorable Mr. Heather, it would be great that you were sure to kill Lars. ”
"Don't talk nonsense, just say if you can subdue these pirates, and answer me can or can't!"
"Yes, if you can do it, I'll do the rest!"
Shang Biao nodded and pulled Thomas to land.
"Bang!"
A musket suddenly spewed out lead bullets, hitting the spot where Shang Biao had landed.
The arc burst out of the torrent, and the lead bullet was blocked in front of Shang Biao by the shield that came with his belt.
"Thomas, is this the helper you're looking for!"
A blue-eyed, blonde-haired, strangely tattooed man among the pirates spoke, holding a quaint musket engraved with strange patterns in his hand, which was emitting a trace of gunsmoke.
"That's right, poor Lars, you're not destined to kill me."
"You're still so confident, without those stupid guys stopping you, you'd better pray that you can escape in embarrassment this time!"
While the two were talking, dozens of pirates surrounded them.
"I ask for a fair duel, and if you still want a treasure map, you'd better accede to my request!"
Thomas glanced at the pirates around him and said loudly holding up the treasure map.
"Haha, Thomas, have you drunk too much fake wine! Why should I promise you, shoot, kill him for me! ”
"Poor Lars, ignorance is your greatest original sin. Do you think you'll be able to find the Pirate King's treasure by getting the treasure map, this map has been through dozens of masters before I got it, and they didn't see a single gold coin of the Pirate King until they died! ”
"Is what he said true?"
Lars turned to the woman behind him with a gloomy face and asked, the biggest reason why he did it to Thomas was because he was seduced by this woman.
"Dear Miss Irene, you'd better tell this arrogant fool the truth."
"Yes, so I've been telling you all the time that Thomas is worth more than he is dead. I'm sure you can crack the secret of the treasure without him, Lars, but it's easier to do, isn't it? ”
The woman stepped forward, and her bewitching red lips seemed to have a kind of magic, gradually soothing the dissatisfaction in Lars's heart.
"Lars, are you scared? Or you will only rely on women to do some shady deeds behind their backs, and you will not dare to duel head-on at all.
Poor pirates, brave pirates, your leader will not accept my challenge, it seems that the treasure of the Pirate King will be taken to my grave, and you will regret it for the rest of your life! ”
Thomas's rudimentary agitation was very effective, and Lars, who was still a little hesitant, knew that he had no way out when he saw his men staring at him with strange eyes.
If he didn't agree to Thomas, he was sure that a civil strife would break out immediately. Pirates don't believe in loyalty, they only value profit, and whoever brings them benefits, they die for whomever they want.
"In the name of the god of the sea, as long as I defeat you in a duel, I will tell me all the information about the treasure!"
Thomas swore without hesitation, and as a sincere pirate, he also threw it away.
"Sir, there's only so much I can do for you, and the rest is up to you."
A worried Thomas smiled pitifully at Shang Biao, who had pressed everything he had.
"It's a big deal."
Shang Biao didn't appreciate it, even if he didn't do these things, it would be nothing more than invoking Yin soldiers, and the crowd tactics would not work for him at all.
"I don't know why that fool who relies only on luck has such confidence in you, but I will never let him succeed!"
Lars raised the musket in his hand and pointed at Shang Biao and said.
"Bang"
The strange pattern on the body of the gun lit up, and with a flash of fire, the sound comparable to that of a cannon came out along with the lead bullet.
Shang Biao took the sword in his hand and swung out a sword qi, but the lead bullet was obviously no longer the ordinary goods before, and it was only blocked by the sword qi for a moment.
"Crackling!"
A dark cloud of electric light condensed, and the palm thunder came out of his hand, colliding with lead bullets in mid-air.
Listening to a roar, the heat wave rolled, and after a small buckshot collided with a palm mine, it actually produced a power no less than that of artillery.
The musket in Lars' hand did not seem to be able to fire continuously, and the musket failed, and he used an incomprehensible spell to activate the tattoo on his body.
The magic sword appeared in front of Lars wrapped in a sharp sword aura, and a strange fish with a cultivated body and a pair of thin meat wings on both sides emerged from the tattoo on Lars's body and bit the magic sword.
It's a ghost-like being, with only a soul body and no physical body. After biting the magic sword, it made the sound of gold and iron clashing from its mouth.
But the next moment, the strange fish let out a terrible wail, and the evil slashing effect of the magic sword had great restraint on these souls.
Seeing this, Lars bit his finger and smeared his own blood on the tattoo on his arm. The next moment, another crab in armor wrapped in a bone ring detached from his arm.
As soon as the crab appeared, it spit out bubbles one after another, sucking the returning magic sword into the bubbles.
"That's the only means, if that's the case, you'd better die."
Shang Biao didn't care about the magic sword that was devoured by bubbles, and in a moment of fighting, he almost figured out the details of Lars.
The typical three-plate axe, first of all, was the powerful quaint musket, which was his first axe, if it did not work. He would summon the soul beasts that he had offered on his body and delay the reloading of the musket.
As for what the third axe is, Shang Biao is not interested in knowing now.
The thunder in the sky gathered, and the five ghost slashing evil seals only played a real role at this time. Originally, after being promoted to a second-rate actor, the casting speed of the Deshui Yin Thunder was reduced a lot, plus the casting speed of the Five Ghost Slashing Evil Seals increased.
After a few breaths, the moonlight was obscured by dark clouds. The thunder in the sky gathered, and the magic sword broke through the restriction of the bubble, soaring into the sky and merging into the thunder, and a thunder sword took shape in an instant.
"There is a sword technique that soars into the sky, I don't know if you have heard of it!"
Shang Biao rarely told a bad joke, and it was not laughter that returned to him.
Feeling a mortal threat, Lars immediately commanded the two soul beasts to outflank him, one left and one right.
