Chapter 219: Annihilation

As the top armed merchant ship under the command of the Nine Rings White Tower, second only to the magic warship, the combat effectiveness of the Magic Light VII is definitely not to be underestimated. Although there is only one magic cannon that can truly attack at a long range, if you bombard it with all your might, the power is almost comparable to that of the Eight Rings.www.biquge.info Coupled with the matching ultra-long-range detection spell system, in terms of firepower output alone, the combat power of this armed merchant ship is even higher than that of a real gold-level mage. After all, the mana of a gold-level mage is not endless, and there is a limit to the number of spells that can be released. But as long as the energy source is sufficient, the magic cannon can be fired almost infinitely.

In the face of the long-range powerful bombardment of the Magic Light Seven, if the one-eyed shark and the spirit caller are still there, maybe the pirates on the Gills Island still have the courage and ability to resist, after all, although the magic guide cannon is accurately positioned and has eliminated a considerable number of bronze level backbones, there are still a considerable number of bronze level leaders alive in the camp, and the black iron level is even hundreds, and with hundreds of ordinary pirates, it is still a big force.

However, after Luo Sheng threw the corpses of the spirit caller and other pirate leaders in front of the camp, and casually killed several of the most prestigious leaders, the pirates who lost all the high-ranking leaders completely lost the courage to fight Rasen. A small number of pirates were taken by Luo Sheng's strong strength and directly gave up resistance and chose to surrender. Most of the pirates, led by the remaining bronze leaders, rushed to the harbor and tried to escape by boat.

For these pirates, Luo Sheng killed all the pirate leaders as soon as he made a move, and he could also use the magic cannon that was beyond the pirates' imagination, which showed that Luo Sheng was definitely not another pirate force who came to eat black, but a regular army that came to completely exterminate the pirates.

If other pirates come to eat black, these middle and lower-level pirates don't mind changing their leaders after the death of their leader, after all, pirates don't have much loyalty to their leaders, and if they change their leaders, the lifestyle of middle and low-level pirates will not change, and they can still loot everywhere and live an indulgent pirate life.

But in the hands of the regular army, these low-level pirates were either beheaded and became evidence of military exploits. Either they will be taken into custody, reformed, and become cannon fodder in the army, and there will be basically no other end. Therefore, as long as they are not cornered, these pirates, who are accustomed to killing and plundering for a living, are absolutely unwilling to surrender to the regular army.

For these pirates who tried to escape, Luo Sheng didn't pay much attention to them, but randomly ordered a few pirate leaders who chose to kneel and surrender, and asked them to start organizing manpower, restore order in the camp, and guard the pirates' warehouses and the looted population.

In addition to cutting off the threat around the sprout territory, this raid on Yugill Island also has a more important purpose, which is to obtain the resources needed for the territory by robbing pirates. After all, the development and construction of the territory is about to be carried out on a large scale, but the resources at hand are not very sufficient. Although Milu and Bunier, the two members of the Nine Rings Parliament, have expressed their full support for Luo Sheng, and are willing to give Luo Sheng a fairly high amount of loan support, Luo Sheng still wants to accumulate a little more capital in his hands. In this way, even if Luo Sheng himself went out to explore the ruins in the future, the territory would not fall into stagnation due to lack of resources.

When Rasheng was rectifying the order in the pirate camp and pacifying the ordinary people who had been looted by the pirates and served the pirates, the main force of the pirates had already rushed to the vicinity of the port. But before they could storm the harbor, Karl took the elite selected from the Cook family soldiers and the Iron Shield mercenary group to kill.

After Rawson dealt with Diallo before, he gave Brady a signal to prepare to attack. When Brady manipulated the magic cannon and aimed at the core of the pirate camp, Carl had already led his people to rush to Fishgill Island in the assault boat on the Magic Light VII, and solved the guards of the harbor in advance, blocking the passage between the harbor and the camp. And when the main force of the pirates rushed over, Carl and the others were already in full battle, waiting for the fleeing army of pirates.

As soon as the two groups clashed, the pirate's team was in a rout. Although there are not many people in Karl's belt, they are all elites selected from the Iron Shield Mercenary Group and the Cook family's soldiers. With the heavy infantry of the Iron Shield Mercenary Regiment as the vanguard, and the rear with the elite of the army holding high-level broken crossbows, not only the formation is tight, but also the equipment is luxurious, dealing with the pirates who are frightened by the bombardment of the magic guide cannon, and only think of fleeing for their lives, it is almost a one-sided slaughter. Even if there are a small number of pirate masters at the peak of the bronze rank who try to force a breakthrough with their own personal strength, they will be killed instantly by Karl, a shadow slayer, and they will not be able to make any waves at all.

It didn't take long for the core of the pirates' bravery to be slaughtered, and most of the more ferocious ordinary pirates were killed or wounded. The rest of the pirates, except for a very few of the more shrewd pirates who bypassed Karl's interception and rushed into the port, the others chose to obediently throw down their weapons and surrender on their knees under the slogan of 'surrender without killing'.

And those pirates who were lucky enough to rush into the port and jump into the pirate ship were not able to really escape. Because the number of pirates is too small and there are no real core members, the main pirate ships such as the 'One-Eyed Shark' cannot be operated at all, and the pirates who escape can only choose small pirate ships that are convenient and flexible.

But no sooner had their small pirate ship been activated than they were struck by a spell from the Magical Light Seven. Although it didn't use the magic cannon, the Magic Light VII, which was already close to the port, was still able to easily smash these small pirate ships with little protection and attack ability with other weapons. Often after a round of blows, the pirate ship becomes a debris at sea.

After killing five or six pirate ships in a row, all the pirates had fully understood the situation, and the remaining pirates had no choice but to obediently return to the port and surrender to Karl's team. The one-eyed shark pirates that once roamed the Hokuriku were basically wiped out.

"Report to your lordship! The main force of the One-Eyed Shark Pirates has been destroyed! We have taken control of Fish Gill Island!" After taking full control of the situation, Carl reported to Rason excitedly after escorting the surrendered pirates back to the camp.

Although Carl had participated in many battles before, fighting bandits and barbarians, he generally fought as a subordinate under the command of others. Like this time, it is the first time to independently lead troops to fight. Carl was very excited to be able to win this time.

"What about our casualties?" Luo Sheng asked calmly.

To be honest, Luo Sheng didn't feel any excitement after winning this battle. Although in terms of numbers, the number of people dispatched by the Sprout Leader is far less than that of the pirates, but the real combat power is far superior to that of the one-eyed shark. Whether it is Luo Sheng's gold-level combat power, or the magic light No. 7, which is comparable to the firepower of a gold-level spellcaster, they all have the ability to defeat this pirate alone. The two joined forces, coupled with the mental calculation and unintentionality, and solved the leader of the pirates in advance, and the battle was doomed from the beginning, and there was no suspense at all.

"With new equipment to protect, only six of us were injured, and most of them were minor injuries, which had been cured with spells. Only one was seriously injured and had returned to the Magic Light Seven to recuperate. Karl replied.

Through Buniel, Rosheng got high-grade military equipment, many of which were even the best products that the Benson family had in stock. After arriving in Hokuriku, Luo Sheng used these equipment to rearm his men. Therefore, in this battle, Luo Sheng's team not only had an extremely high killing efficiency, but also had extremely strong protection. Even if you are attacked by a bronze pirate, you can usually rely on equipment to save your life.

"Good job. Hearing Carl's reply, Luo Sheng nodded with satisfaction.

With Luo Sheng's current strength, if he uses a wide range of spells, he can actually solve the main force of the pirates alone. The reason why Luo Sheng did not do it himself, but instead drove the main pirate force to the port, in addition to avoiding chaos and keeping the camp and warehouse, there is also an important reason, that is, he wants to use this group of pirates to train his team.

Although in the Imir continent, the core support of a power depends largely on the strength of the sovereign, a strong army is also indispensable. Otherwise, even if a high-level professional is exhausted, it will be difficult to take care of all aspects.

With Luo Sheng's current personal strength, there is no problem in supporting a territory, but Luo Sheng's team has just been formed, and compared to the truly powerful aristocratic private army, it still lacks a lot. Therefore, Luo Sheng consciously let his private army participate in more battles, and then exercised in the battle to integrate the team.

Originally, Luo Sheng still faced so many pirates, and even if the team led by Carl could win easily, it would pay some price. But now it seems that the team is doing much better than expected.

"Thank you for the compliment, what are we going to do next? Do we want to leave this camp behind?" Karl asked Rasen, looking at the camp that had been completely controlled.

Although the pirate camp on Fishgill Island is not very strong, it is not rudimentary, at least it is much better than the village of New Sprouts. If it stays, it can become a branch base of the sprout collar.

"No need to stay. You first organize the captives and have them tear down the supplies in the camp and everything useful for the construction of the territory and carry them to the port. Valuables and the plundered population were placed on the Magic Light Seven, and other bulky supplies were loaded onto the pirate ship, and then a number of pirates were selected and transported to the New Sprouts. Luo Sheng said lightly: "The Magic Light No. 7 is responsible for escorting the fleet, and if you dare to make any changes, you will sink it directly." ”

"And what about these pirates?" Karl asked, hesitantly, glancing at the dense crowd of pirates in the camp.

Although a large number of pirates were killed in this battle, the number of remaining pirates was still five or six hundred, and the number of professionals was almost close to a hundred, which was a force that could not be ignored. If you don't handle it well, it's easy to get into trouble.

"Don't worry, you still need them now, and when you get to the territory, I'll deal with them. Luo Sheng said lightly.
