Chapter 259, the road is uneven
The moist and salty sea breeze blows from the window, which is very pleasant. The panda sits by the window, blowing the sea breeze while concentrating on reading.
The books in his bookcase have been replaced, and the previous batch of books has been read.
Of course, the books are still some common sense books. With such a welfare thing, there can be no truly precious information hidden in it.
But for Panda, those "precious information" are not of much value, and what he really needs is this common sense.
When it came to valuable information, he knew more than the two wizards guarding the flying ship......
Just when he was concentrating on reading, his heart suddenly moved, and he subconsciously raised his head and looked in a certain direction.
He had a vague sense of hostility coming from there.
Strong, dark, blood-filled hostility.
He put away his books, closed the windows, and walked out of the room, through the hallway, and up the stairs to the deck.
The deck was calm, and the sailors were still going about their business, and not a single one of them felt hostile or dangerous.
The panda couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart - the strength of these sailors is not bad, probably everyone can be regarded as a "knight" level, but their perception is really dull enough, the hostility is no more than five hundred meters, they can't feel it......
At this moment, a loud bang suddenly came from the direction of hostility.
A flash of fire suddenly appeared, heading straight for the flying ship.
The panda didn't make a move, neither did the two wizards on the ship, and as for the others - even if they wanted to, they didn't have time, or couldn't.
In the blink of an eye, the flash of fire struck the lower middle of the cabin. There was a slam in the hull of the ship, and more than one sailor was thrown off the deck on his feet.
This time, Panda struck.
He grabbed a piece of rope and threw it out, entangled one sailor, and then threw it to the other, where he grabbed it.
Then, with a shake of his hand, the cable was thrown back along with the two men, throwing the two unlucky ones back onto the deck, avoiding the tragic end of being smashed to pieces.
"Good skill!" shouted at the exit from the cabin to the deck.
Without turning his head, the panda knew that this man was an apprentice who had been courting him on the road, and it seemed that his name was Holmes.
He nodded to Romus and didn't speak, but turned his head to look in the direction the firelight was coming from.
The clouds flowed in the air, as if a light veil had faded, and another flying ship appeared.
The flying ship was bigger than theirs, blood-red throughout. On the hull of the ship, a blood-dripping scimitar is painted, which is murderous.
The faces of the two wizards who hurried to the deck changed dramatically, and their brows tightened.
"Blood-dripping scimitar warship...... How could the people of the Scimitar Association appear on this route?" the tall and thin wizard whispered, "They've crossed the line!"
"The problem now is that if we can't repel them, whether they cross the line or not, it doesn't matter to us. The short, skinny wizard said.
"Can you beat it?"
"If we can't beat it, we have to fight!" unless we bet on the fate of falling into the sea......
"Alas, how could a mere apprentice encounter such a battle!"
"Bad luck. ”
The two wizards discussed it for a while, and then they were ready for battle. The tall and thin wizard took out a dark green wand, and with a wave of his hand, a cloud of poisonous water appeared out of thin air and shot towards the flying ship opposite. The short and thin wizard took out a red crystal, slashed his finger with the tip of the crystal, and smeared blood on it, and the crystal suddenly became bright red, and then a fireball rose from it and blasted towards the red flying ship.
Before their attack could land on the opponent's flying ship, a circle of black aura rose from the blood-red flying ship and met the attack of the two.
There was no special sight, and no special sound was heard, just two slight sounds like blisters bursting, and the fireballs and poisonous water exploded in the air, losing all their strength and falling downward.
The two wizards' faces turned bitter, and it was clear that they were no match for the wizards on the opposite ship.
"What do you call Your Excellency?" the thin wizard asked aloud, "what do you have any advice?"
"I don't have time to 'teach' a little person like you. On the blood-red flying ship, there was a sharp and old voice, which replied in a very mean tone.
The faces of the two wizards became even more ugly, and the short and thin wizard couldn't help but ask, "Could it be ...... Is it Lord Greyfire?"
The man did not answer, but said, "I give you two choices." First, get off the ship and leave, nothing is your business, and second, come and kill me, everything here is yours. ”
The two wizards shook their heads again and again, and the short and thin wizard shouted, "Your Excellency, don't you joke with us, can't you give us another choice?"
"No, two is enough. ”
The two wizards on the black flying ship glanced at each other, sighed deeply, and then, without saying anything, walked directly to the edge of the deck and jumped down.
The panda thought they were trying to kill themselves, but after seeing them fly out, they flew soon after, apparently capable of flying.
At the very least, they should not be able to fall.
After taking out the two wizards sitting on the flying ship, the bright red flying ship slowly flew in and stopped beside it.
On the deck of the ship, in the midst of a group of heavily armed knights, there was a thin old man, who was looking coldly.
"How many people are on this boat?" he asked.
The first mate of the flying ship, a senior knight, immediately replied respectfully: "Lord Hui, there are forty-six sailors on this ship, two hundred and three apprentices, and two sorcerers on board. ”
"Forget the sailors, apprentices...... "The old man muttered for a moment, and said, "the weather is good today, so I'll take four." ”
The sailors were immediately relieved, and the first mate also showed a relaxed look.
Holmes, who was close to the panda trap before, couldn't help but ask: "May I ask my lord, what does 'accept four' mean? ”
The knights on the opposite ship smiled grimly and sarcastically, while the first mate on this ship smiled bitterly sympathetically.
"Mr. Romus...... Lord 'Greyfire' means that he only left four of the apprentices on this ship to take ......"
Loms was not a fool, and of course immediately understood what he meant, and his eyes widened with shock and panic on his face.
"Only...... Only four?!" he asked with some stammering, "...... left What about the rest?"
"How can there be any left?" laughed a knight in a particularly flamboyant costume on the opposite ship, "you kill each other, and there are still four left." These four are what we want. ”
