Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Battle Song Heard in the Midst of the Artillery Fire
"That bastard of Irum is hiding such important information. Nathan gritted his teeth with hatred, and he really deserved his bad luck, although Nathan himself was not arrogant, but his subordinates were all dogs and people, although they were bound by the law in the pirate city and did not fight, but the usual attitude of shouting five and six also made a group of waiters and bartenders in the Rugui Tavern extremely dissatisfied, but the environment and food of the Rugui Tavern were excellent, and they would choose the Rugui Tavern as soon as they arrived in the pirate city, although Irum was in harmony with them on the surface, in fact, he had long hated them.
"Oh, you said that dragon tooth pirate group? I've seen it, they are still talking nonsense to me, really, there is only one third-order swordsman and a third-order elf hunter, and they are so arrogant. ”
Recalling Irum's description of the Dragon's Tooth Pirates at that time, Nathan was angry, but now he couldn't care about being angry, and another bullet had been fired from the other party.
The projectile velocity of the average magic gun will exceed the speed of sound, so the gunner will almost kill an opponent with poor long-range sniping, and the target of this shot is Fiona, who has just been pushed away by Nathan!
Although he was injured, the pain stimulated Nathan's nerves, and he had not been injured for a long time, but he entered a calm state that he had never felt before, and the moment he sensed the fluctuation of the air, he used his sword qi to shake Fiona away again, and almost at the moment when the latter's body was shaken open, there was an extra crater in the mast behind her that was shot out by a bullet!
The pirates who were familiar with the captain's temperament shuddered when they saw Nathan's expressionless face, and some of the old crew members naturally knew what Fiona's status was in Nathan's heart, and this time the target of the opponent's sniper was Fiona, which was undoubtedly equivalent to adding fuel to the fire.
In an instant, the Sidewinder disappeared from Nathan, and Will, who was entering the sniper state, soon discovered this abnormal situation, he had been sailing at sea for many years, and he was still somewhat clear about Nathan's abilities, well, at least he knew more than Sojes.
"Jack, get down, Nathan is coming towards us!"
Will's anxious roar made Sojers' scalp tingle in shock, could a fifth-order swordsman be able to travel from the sea so far away?But for Will's words, he still chose to believe it, but he had just made a move, when he felt a strong wind behind him, he didn't pull out to dodge, but turned sharply and blocked with his scabbard in front of him.
"Boom!"
The powerful sword qi shook Sojers' arms numb, and he barely blocked the sword qi that slashed to the vital point and was pushed to the deck by the force, although he was not injured, but he still felt a pain in his back, and before he could stand up, Will's gunfire rang out again, but Nathan's body and nerve reaction speed were too fast, Will's powerful shot actually missed, and the bullet fired by the thunder musket hitting the water would actually produce the kind of effect that a cannonball would have if it exploded.
Cervantes, who was intercepting the cannonballs at the lookout, had clearly noticed Nathan's movements, he was moving too fast, the wind was strong now, and he was running wildly on the surface of the sea with the momentum of the falling waves, which from a distance looked like a sharp sword that parted the sea!
"This guy is just a fifth-order swordsman, he must have used some kind of secret technique to overdraw his life, otherwise he would not have the ability to run on the sea!"
As Cervantes said, Nathan was angry that Fiona was nearly killed by Will, and in his rage, he used a secret technique he had stumbled upon as a young man - sacrifice. This secret technique can temporarily raise the level of the first order in a short period of time, but the cost is extremely huge, not to mention that no more sacrifices can be used for a long time in the future, just overdrawing the life span of ten years is enough to make people prohibitive.
However, even if he temporarily broke through to the sixth order, Nathan's strength still can't be compared with the real sixth order, it can be seen from the fact that he can only run on the water with the help of the waves, compared to the real sixth order, after all, he still has a sense of strength, and now he can only belong to the pseudo sixth order at best, and has the qualifications to fight with the real sixth-order powerhouse, but it is impossible to win only with strength.
"Shuais, you continue to intercept the shells, Will, don't think about killing Nathan, find a way to keep him on the surface of the sea for a while longer, and when the secret effect has passed, he will go back himself, then is the time to kill him, I don't believe it, their commander is here, and the Rattlesnake dares to fire at the Hope!" Sorjes broke Nathan's current flaw, indeed, since Nathan rode the waves, the Sidewinder's fire venting on them had stopped, and not only the Sidewinder, but the remaining five battleships had also shifted their targets to the Wave Treading and the Edge.
As soon as he finished speaking, Sojes swung his scabbard and slashed out a sword qi, but the effect was not good, so he had to shout in a hurry: "Who handed me a knife!" After speaking, a pirate who was close to him hurriedly threw the knife over, Sojes took it with his backhand, and once again slashed out the sword qi, which hit the waves directly at Nathan's feet.
"Peng!"
As Sorjes said, at the moment when the waves were crushed, Nathan's whole body sank into the water, and his running speed suddenly decreased, but this was only a short pause, when he appeared again, although the clothes on his body had been wet with the sea, but he still continued to move fast with the help of the waves, but at this time, Will shot one after another to Nathan's inevitable place.
The distance of nearly three kilometers is not far for a strong man like Nathan, even if he walks on the sea, it will take no more than two minutes at most, but the current situation is that his infinitely close to the sixth order of strength was hindered by Will and Sojers and was delayed on the sea for three minutes, and what's even worse is that during this time period, Sojers also ordered the gunners of the Hope to aim their guns at Nathan and fire in unison!
"Boom!"
One shell after another shot out, the huge waves that set off made Nathan's body be forced back, and the previous gunshot wound also had a tendency to deteriorate, seeing that nothing could be done, Nathan finally had the idea of retreating in his heart, but before retreating, he still wanted to breathe a bad breath for Fiona!
Nathan's legs were slightly separated, all the power was transported to the sword-wielding right arm, and his upper body was slightly leaning back.
"Die...... Revenant Sword Dance ......" With Nathan's murmuring soft, his figure became looming on the sea, and a series of sword lights pointed directly at the sea, people who don't know the truth will often be amazed by this gorgeous sword dance when they see this scene, however, this magnificence goes hand in hand with death.
"Shuais, come down! Will, lie on the deck and don't move!" Sojers didn't know what Nathan's previous sword dance was, but he instinctively didn't have a good premonition, and sure enough, the moment Cervantes jumped onto the deck, a sword light suddenly burst out from the sea that was originally only waves, and every sword qi slammed into the Hope in the shape of a long sword, although Sojers was struggling to block, but he had consumed too much fighting energy and physical strength before, and the knife in his hand was a big road, barely blocking more than a dozen sword lights, and the knife in his hand was unbearable to shatter. Seeing that the next sword light flew straight towards Sojes's heart, and the latter was now powerless to dodge!
"Ice spirits who are active in the sea, listen to my call, wake up, and dance......"
When everyone was desperate, a cold and beautiful singing voice came into the ears of everyone on the Hope, and when they heard this voice, the already desperate Sojes once again surged out of his heart!
