Chapter 34: Neither satisfied

Thundered!

As soon as the orange-red energy projectile left the muzzle, it immediately crashed into the magic shield cast by Ethan! The huge explosion, the strong impact, and the scattered firelight were all blocked by the magic shield, and the corresponding unprotected Flame Monarch suffered on the other side, and the huge impact pushed the hull backwards for a certain distance, not only causing some damage to the hull itself, but also causing the hook lock connecting the two ships to be torn off.

"Not good!"

Ethan immediately sensed that something was wrong, if the two ships were separated from each other, then he could only be beaten passively, what if that Keno was bent on bombarding with cannons?

"Abandon ship?"

His calm thinking allowed him to prepare for the worst, and when the time came, he had to abandon the ship, and then use the big ship as a target to cover it, and leave with Arthur in his original small boat behind.

Looking up at the big ship opposite, Ethan did not disperse the magic shield, and even increased the energy output of the magic stone to expand the range of defense.

As the distance narrowed, the enemy had more angles to shoot, and in this time, Arthur had cleared the few remaining enemies on the ship and stood next to Ethan.

"What should I do?"

"There's nothing you can do unless you can jump onto the boat on the other side and finish them off. ”

Arthur looked at the distance between the two ships and shook his head helplessly: "I can't jump this far." ”

Ethan rolled his eyes helplessly, didn't he know that Arthur couldn't jump so far?

Unexpectedly, Arthur said that he was not without other methods.

"Huh, do you have a way?"

Arthur's expression was a little hesitant, as if he wasn't quite sure.

"I don't know very well either, but there is a feeling that tells me that I can get to the boat on the other side. ”

"Feelings?"

If it was Ethan in the previous life, when he heard Arthur's words, he would tell him very calmly: "Rest, it's all an illusion!" But Ethan in this life is not so sure, after all, he himself has experienced a similar situation, and he has been saved by inexplicable feelings I don't know how many times.

"Are you sure?"

"You can give it a try, after all, there is no other way. Arthur straightened out his armor and nodded at Ethan, "I'll rush out later, you remember to open the magic shield first." ”

"Don't worry, I won't let you crash into it. ”

The magic shield is not a unilateral defense, and Ethan's side will also be blocked by the shield.

This shield is actually a magic cast by the Book of Inheritance in his hand, and Ethan can only be regarded as an indirect controller, unable to manipulate the magic shield so meticulously.

Seeing the right time, just as Arthur rushed to the boat gang and was about to jump, Ethan removed the magic shield. watched Arthur leap into the air...... Then it fell with a whoosh.

This thing is still wearing armor, and he is still young and his strength has not reached the peak, how can he jump far?

But neither Ethan, nor the boat on the other side, let out a laugh, and even everyone looked at the blonde boy with an expression of disbelief.

When Arthur was in the air, he knew that he would not be able to jump far, and he was afraid that he would fall immediately. But he always had a strange feeling in his heart that he would not be harmed in any way.

As he had a hunch, Arthur jumped off the deck, saying that he was not tall but not short, and it was not uncommon for ordinary people of such height to accidentally fall and break a bone.

But Arthur stood on the surface of the sea very easily, and when he 'landed', the sea water was pressed into it by him, and then when the force of the fall was discharged, he was steadily lifted back to the water, and Arthur stood on the surface of the water so steadily.

"It can't be!"

"Can humans stand on water?"

Compared with the collapse of ordinary sailors' three views and doubting life. Kino, who had just become the new Flame Hand and Captain of the Flame Monarch, had the first reaction that the boy had magic stone equipment that could move freely on the water.

"Magic Stone Equipment! It must be Magic Stone Equipment!" Although I don't know what kind of magic stone has such an effect, but a piece of equipment that allows people to walk freely on the water is immeasurable in this world full of seawater!

"Kill him, aim the cannon at the blonde!"

Keno's head kept echoing: That magic stone belongs to me!

Compared to the ability to walk on water, he couldn't look down on it at all if he cast thunder and lightning or something, anyway, he got a glove that could use flames, and one less thunderbolt didn't have much effect!

"With a bow and arrow!"

It was very difficult to stop the nimble Arthur with a magic stone cannon! Coupled with the distance between the two sides getting closer and closer, it was quite troublesome for the cannon to fire downward.

And the consumable weapon of the bow and arrow, for the group of flame hands who were already strong in the Sea of Calm, was not particularly surplus equipment, only a few people took out the bow and arrow, and the number of arrows in the quiver was also pitiful.

"Big ...... Captain...... We've almost exhausted our bows and arrows before......"

I almost habitually called the first mate, but fortunately the sailor reacted quickly enough, and Keno didn't care about these little things.

"Damn!"

"That...... In fact, there are only a few magic stones left, and the cannon can only be fired four more times......"

Keno's eyes were red, and he only felt that the magic stone had grown wings and flew farther and farther, and he could not even see clearly from reaching out......

After not having a chance, Kino calmed down, and finally made up his mind when he looked at the blonde boy who was running on the sea and was about to rush to him.

"Sail away!"

"Huh?"

The sailor next to him was stunned by Keno's order, and then was kicked aside by the new captain: "I said sail, don't worry about that kid, let's retreat!"

Retreat, it was an order that made his heart feel like a knife, but he had to do it.

His strength is much worse than Sean, Sean can't take down those two young people, let alone himself! His biggest reliance is on these subordinates, and when these subordinates can't give him enough help, the Flame Monarch is his last reliance - the young man on the other side doesn't need to do anything else, just find an opportunity to open a big hole under his ship, and they can only wait for death as soon as they have a boatload.

After a calm analysis, he found that it was impossible to snatch what he wanted from these two people today. Even if they continued to entangle, it would be detrimental to them, so they decisively gave the order to retreat.

It was very troublesome for the sailboat to raise its speed, but the distance between the two ships had been pushed away a lot by the impact force before, and although the remaining strength was not large, the Flame Monarch was still slowly drifting into the distance.

This kept the distance between the two sides increasing, and the previous shelling, although unsuccessful, managed to hinder Arthur's advance, buying them enough time.

"The next time we meet, I'll be stronger and ......"

Keno reluctantly glanced at Arthur, who was gradually stopping and standing on the water, and instructed his men to leave the area as soon as possible - he was not going to go to Stated Island, because he knew that the two young men would definitely go there, so he was going to find an island to repair, and then return to Statet Island after a while to recruit new subordinates, and by the way, collect ways to make himself stronger.

Sean is dead, there is no one to suppress his growth anymore, and after understanding his weakness, Keno desperately wants to become stronger......

Watching the Flame Monarch depart quickly, Ethan squinted his eyes and pondered, and realized that the other party was eighty percent worried that Arthur would destroy their ship, and did not use the cannon to attack after opening the distance, then there was only one possibility: the cannonball was gone!

"So the Magic Stone Cannon is a consumable weapon, not the pure energy weapon that I thought would be powered by the Magic Stone and then fired non-stop. ”

Touching his chin, Ethan felt that another possibility was that each launch would consume a magic stone, and the quality of the magic stone might not be as high as he had predicted first.

"Perhaps this speculation is closer. ”

Think about the greed of the other party's two captains for the magic props in their hands, and you can know how attractive the magic stone is to them, and even if you get it, you will give priority to your own use, which shows that high-quality magic stones are not so easy to find.

"At least in the calm sea. ”

Lowering the rope ladder and letting Arthur, who had already returned, return to the ship, the two of them silently began to clean up after the battle. At the same time, I am also recalling the previous battle in my heart.

"Arthur. ”

"Huh?"

"Now we're going to have to put that pile of things Merlin gave you. ”

"Well, I think so too. ”

The two of them were so busy understanding each other's own abilities that they ignored this time, Merlin gave Arthur a lot of things, and specially cast a blessing spell on Arthur.

If they had known before that the effect of this spell was to allow Arthur to move freely on the water, then from the beginning, they would have been able to make a plan against the other party, and it would have been impossible for the other party to escape so easily.

Although Ethan is not a murderous person, he understands that if this kind of enemy can't be completely killed, then maybe he will jump out and disgust you at some point, even if he can't threaten himself, he will make himself annoyed, so once he is sure that he has become a mortal enemy with the other party, he will resolutely be ruthless and refuse to leave trouble.

This time, he actually watched the other party escape, which made him very unhappy, and he was dissatisfied with his own strength - it was still not strong enough, if he could crush the general Sean and kill him, the other party would not be able to escape at all, and before that, he could kill or control everyone.

"Keep working hard to cultivate!"
