Chapter 93: Pirates (2)
Originally, when pirates attacked merchant ships, they always approached the target as quickly as possible, and then a large group of pirates rushed to the merchant ship with their weapons and tried to kill and injure the sailors and mercenaries of the merchant ship as much as possible. Now, however, these gathered pirates have become the best targets for magicians to practice magic.
Seeing that their ship was less than 100 meters away from their target, the pirates could immediately swarm up and slaughter the sailors of the merchant ship with their superiority in numbers, and then seize the merchant ship. But no one knew that there were magicians on that merchant ship, and judging by the density of this magic emission, it was probably more than the spell cast by five intermediate magicians.
"Whoosh! Whoosh!"
One after another, the life-harvesting fireballs roared and landed beside him, emitting a deafening roar, and then bringing bursts of heat, rolling up the body fragments of his companions.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
Every explosion was mixed with the dying screams of his companions, and the usual charge of less than a minute turned out to be a journey of death.
Ryan didn't need to put much effort into aiming, he just needed to make sure that the fireball he fired was going in the right direction, and if it hit the "Carnage" pirate ship, it would be a fatal blow to the pirates who were standing in dense waiting to charge. Ryan unleashed his fireball spell at the "Carnage" pirate ship to his heart's content, and although he didn't use the "Multicast" trump card, the fireball released every second or so became a nightmare for his opponents. At this moment, Ryan is no longer an ordinary teenager, but has become a god of death who harvests souls in one fell swoop.
Ryan's fireball spell not only killed the pirates on a large scale, but also dealt a devastating blow to their ship, after several explosions, the front deck of the "Slaughter" no longer existed, and the black cabin below the deck kept smoking out, I don't know what was burning inside, and the bulging sails on the mast of the "Slaughter" also burned violently, making a crackling sound.
Several fierce pirates try to use throwing spears to snipe Ryan, but when the first throwing spear they throw is easily held by Elendor who is guarding Ryan's side, it is accompanied by Ryan's precise magic missile. Purple magic missiles shuttled between the two ships, knocking down the spears thrown by the pirates into the sea one by one, and then sending the pirates into the sea one by one. This move made the pirates of the "Massacre" completely lose confidence in victory, they gave up the attack, and also gave up extinguishing the raging flames on their pirate ship, grabbed what could float around them, and jumped into the icy sea with "poof, poof".
Keen of the Exocet is an experienced captain, and when he saw Ryan and Lille begin to carry out magical attacks on the pirates, he immediately cooperated with them to command the Exocet to make one deft move after another, skillfully avoiding the enemy's attempts to approach him, which also provided time for Ryan and them to release their magical attacks.
When Kissunst saw that the "Carnage" attacked by Lane had lost power and was floating on the sea, he immediately issued a series of orders for the sailors to turn the oars and change the current course of the "Exocet", bypassing the burning pirate ship, and slowly approaching the Blood God.
The "Blood God", which was attacked by Lille, was not so badly damaged, after all, the lethality of fire magic on wooden ships was far greater than that of water magic. However, due to the destruction of the mainsail in the first place, the speed of the "Blood God", which basically sails on the power of the wind, was greatly reduced, which is also the reason why although Lille's magic attacks were not as dense as Ryan's, he was still able to keep the "Blood God" unable to get close to the "Exocet" with the cooperation of Kissnst.
Seeing that the pirates on the "Slaughter" had been slaughtered by his opponent, Redbeard Leo let out a long sigh and reluctantly gave the order to evacuate. After receiving the order, the two pirate ships entangled with the escort warships immediately hoisted their sails and fled towards the junction of sea and sky without looking back, and one of the pirate ships that was originally intended to prevent the merchant ships from escaping was broken into pieces by the six high-level magicians who were on the other merchant ship and were not inferior to Lille.
The main sail of the "Blood God" was frozen by Lille, and the escape speed was greatly reduced, and Kissster's "Flying Fish" naturally would not let go of this cheap choice, and he commanded his subordinates to slowly stick to it, not only keeping a certain distance to avoid the "Blood God" from desperately, but also sticking to the opponent, so that the "Blood God" could not get rid of himself. Unexpectedly, the "Blood God", under the command of Redbeard Leo, suddenly dropped a large number of barrels.
The barrels were apparently specially made, and as soon as they were thrown into the sea, they turned into fragments, and the contents of them immediately floated on the surface of the sea. At a glance, Kissunst immediately knew that those things were extremely flammable grease, and he didn't even bother to give an order, so he directly grabbed the rudder of the first mate and personally steered the "Exocet" away.
Just after the "Exocet" sailed out of this sea area, someone on the "Blood God" shot out a few rockets, and the grease floating on the sea surface met the open flame, and immediately burned violently, the grease was lighter than water, because it floated on the sea, and now the entire floating grease sea surface is burning, and the momentum is extremely amazing. Fortunately, Kissn found out early and sailed the "Exocet" away in time, otherwise he would have been caught in this sea of fire, and the consequences would have been unimaginable.
Under the cover of the "Sea of Fire", the "Blood God" had enough time to break away from the battle and flee into the distance. When the "Blood God" escaped without a trace, everyone in the entire fleet burst into cheers, which was a great victory, seven merchant ships and two warships were able to defeat five heavily armed pirate ships, unscathed, and destroy two opponent pirate ships.
But the Exocet was a different story: Ryan, Allendo, and Lille were on one side of the deck, confronting them with Kissern and his men. The pirate attack just now made Gainst reveal his strength, which naturally aroused the suspicion of Ryan and others, but Kisser and the others didn't seem to have any malicious intentions, so Ryan and the others were just on guard.
Kiss Ernst hesitated for a while, and finally decided to tell his intentions honestly, and the violent magic blow of Ryan and them just now also shook Kissnst. Killnst: They used to participate in the Race Royale with Ryan last year, and at that time, Kissn and they had been wearing makeup, so even if they were face to face with Ryan now, Ryan couldn't recognize Kissn and the others.
Killst didn't fight against Ryan's Ress team at that time, but they also saw with their own eyes how Ryan defeated the Royal Knights team, and they had an understanding of the strength of Ryan and others, but today after Kissn once again witnessed Ryan's strength up close, he was very glad that he didn't draw a lottery to fight against them, and finally understood why even the Royal Knight Squad, which had an undefeated record, lost to Ryan and them. Of course, what Kissern didn't know was that in fact, in the Atletico Real Tournament, Lane and they didn't have the strength they have now, and Kisser overestimated Lane.
"Magician Lane. "Don't get me wrong," said Kissnst, "we don't mean it badly. ”
"You know me?" Ryan asked, seeing Killnster call out his name, "Who are you, and what are you trying to do this time?"
Gainst pondered his words as he explained, "Don't get me wrong, we don't mean anything malicious. It's true that we've done a little bit of breaking the law in the past, such as shipping things that are not allowed to be transported by law, but we don't blatantly learn from Redbeard to rob and kill people everywhere. This time, in fact, we can't help it, now the entire south of the continent is transporting supplies to the north through merchant ships, and our little smuggling business can't continue, so we have to change careers......"
Under Kissern's explanation, Ryan and they believed him for the time being, after all, now in the vast sea, if they really want to fight, even if they can win, it will definitely affect this voyage, Ryan They will not drive ships. As a result, the two sides returned to their previous peace and quiet. Of course, the apparent peace does not mean that there is no private vigilance, Lille and York have strengthened the protection of the supplies they transported, and the two of them simply ate and lived in the cargo hold, with them, thirty mercenaries of the "Magic Hand", while Ryan and Alendor simply stayed in the captain's room, in the name of learning to steer ships.
Kissunst was very generous in teaching Ryan everything he knew about driving a ship, and whatever happened on the ship, Kissun would tell Ryan and them clearly to show that he had no ill will. Gainst was well aware of Ryan's background, and neither Luke, Orlando, nor Victor could compete with his petty smuggler and the occasional guest appearance as a pirate.
There are too many people of Kissunst's status on the voyage of Sunrise City and Seabreeze City, and both Flanner and Lille know very well that for such people, as long as the north-south seafaring trade has always had huge profits, it is impossible to eradicate them, so why should they be wiped out? As long as Kissern and they do not violate their own interests, whether they smuggle themselves or charge to help the Free Paradise Business Alliance deliver supplies, so what does it matter?
In this way, the two sides spent eleven days peacefully, during this time, under the special friendship of Gainst and others, they became good friends with Ryan, Allendo and others, talking and laughing every day, and they were not lonely in the boring voyage.
And on the twelfth day, when the fleet had been out to sea for fifteen days, an exciting news came from the very front of the fleet, and the sunrise city was already in my mind.
