"It's the ship, catch up with me!"

Odus stood on the lookout of the air pirate ship, commanding the group of hired air thieves with high spirits, and at the same time using the monocular in his hand to confirm the target on the transport ship ahead.

"That's right, it's those two guys, they're on the same ship......" Through the binoculars, Odus saw the Kirin and Xiude on the deck of the transport, and the corners of his mouth pulled a cold and brutal arc. "I was humiliated like that, but fortunately, God had the eyes to let me survive...... Hmph, this account will be settled for you today!"

In fact, Odus was the captain of the Viper, an assassination force belonging to the Prime Minister's faction, and was ordered by Katos to eliminate the Kirin. The last time Kirin and Xiude infiltrated the empty cavalry cemetery to steal parts, he also led his subordinates to follow. Originally, Odus thought that he could kill the Kirin in the empty cavalry graveyard unconsciously, but the strength of the target was far beyond his expectations, and as a result, Odus and his subordinates were defeated by the Kirin lightly, and the tried and tested methods such as the hostage threat were also wiped out in the conversation and laughter between the two.

Odus was almost helpless, but even worse, he also knocked down a group of wild goblins who were hunting lizards in the abyss. The goblins of Pirodis killed all of his men, and the Abyssal Lizards devoured them as food. Thankfully, the terrifying abyssal monster chased Kirin and the others away, allowing Odus to escape through the hidden passage of the empty horse graveyard, but he lost all his men and suffered an unprecedented humiliation as an assassin.

In order to complete the mission given to him, and on the other hand, to avenge himself and his subordinates, Odustone Guò Viper's intelligence network found out that Kirin and Xiude had escaped from the mouth of the abyssal lizard, and inquired about their next trip to Warhammer Volcano. Upon learning of this, Odus used the Chancellor's underground network to hire a gang of air thieves to chase after Warhammer Volcano as quickly as possible. After a day and a night of chasing, the air pirate ship finally caught up with the damn two before the sun went down, and looking at the transport boat in front of him and the panicked appearance of the escape, Odus couldn't help but tremble with excitement.

"Rack up the cannons, shoot them twice, scare them!" Odus commanded in a high voice.

Armed with twelve old-style smoothbore guns, the pirate ship was not inaccurate, and it was barely effective against heavy passenger ships, but it was a dead end when it came across an air patrol boat. Originally, Odus planned to hire a better equipped air pirate ship, but as the small leader of the "Viper", he had limited funds at his disposal, so he could only use this medieval air pirate ship. Fortunately, the other party was only on an ordinary transport boat, so it was not too troublesome to deal with.

Only the deafening sound of the smoothbore cannon was heard, and the two shells fell into the sea of clouds in the air dozens of meters away from the transport boat.

Although these two shellings were warning, the crosshairs were too far off. Odus was quite dissatisfied with the appearance of his air thieves, but then he unexpectedly appeared, as if frightened by the two deterrent shelling, and the transport ship in front of him who had fled in a hurry gradually stopped.

"Oh, are you going to surrender......" Odus looked at the transport ship hovering in the air, his expression smug. "That's right, the air is different from the ground, no matter how powerful the martial arts are, it's useless. ”

Odus was convinced of his advantage, but he hesitated to pull the ship over. Despite the temptation of the Blade Enemy, the thought of the Kirin's inhuman force against the Abyssal Monsters made Odus decide to prioritize safety and gave the order to the Sky Thieves to sink the transport.

"Don't lean over here, sink that ship for me right here!"

The pirate ship slowly turned its hull and turned its six smoothbore guns on the port side to bring the transport boat parked in the air into range. Within seconds, six smoothbore guns roared one after another, and six powerful shells were fired at the transport. Odus imagined the frightened expressions of the guys on the transportboat before they died, and looked forward to watching the transportboat be shattered by six shells.

In Odus's expectations, the explosion was indeed born, but the scale was far from what he expected. One shell hit the transport's submast, shattering the upper half of the transport, but this small loss barely affected the transport's movement, while the other five shells grazed the transport's side and fell into the vast sea of clouds - the low-precision characteristics of the smoothbore gun, coupled with a certain rare probability, allowed the people on the transporter to escape.

Odus was about to rebuke the incompetence of the Sky Thieves, but his eyes suddenly widened. Under his gaze, the transport boat that had been parked in front of him suddenly started its engine, and then flew away in a puff of smoke.

"Catch up! Sink that ship for me!"

Odus was so angry that he screamed, and although Kirin and the others escaped by luck, their disadvantage did not change.

In any case, the air pirate ship did have a performance advantage, and it didn't take long to catch up with the fleeing transport ship and parallel to its left side. Six smoothbore guns were again aimed at the transport, but on the eve of their guns, the transports avoided the range of the smoothbore guns with an emergency reduction. The six shells almost grazed the bow of the transport boat and fell into the void, and its thrilling scene made onlookers can't help but pinch a cold sweat.

"Hmph, dying throes!"

The two defeats did not shake Odus's confidence, but did not convince him of his own strengths. Anyway, the transports had no ability to fight back, so he ordered the air thieves to intensify their attacks while picking up binoculars again to reconnoiter the situation on the transports. Odus had been expecting to see the frightened images of Kirin and the others, but the appearance in the telescope startled him.

The deck of the transport ship was empty, except for the black tyrant standing in the middle with a huge half-man-high crossbow. Odus recognized that the spear crossbow in Qilin's hand was the spear and stone crossbow configured by the 6th Army of the Kingdom, but he didn't feel particularly worried when he saw Qilin half-kneeling on the deck and aiming this way.

The Spearstone Crossbow is actually a large crossbow, but the arrowhead is made of ore that crystallizes in the air, and using the resonance of the co-current, it can fly a considerable distance in the atmosphere, but that's about it. The spear crossbow was not only difficult to maneuver, but also had limited power, and it would take at least ten times more to pose some kind of threat to this air pirate ship, so Odus was not worried about the unicorn's counterattack at all, and even continued to observe the unicorn's movements with a telescope with pity.

A second later, his gaze met that of the Kirin.

At that moment, the corners of the tyrant's mouth pulled out a ferocious arc.

Holding the giant crossbow that had been barely moving between the two of them, the Kirin aimed at Odus and pulled the trigger.

The powerful arrows embedded with the crystals of the air stream shot out under the action of the steel strings, breaking through the critical point high, turning into fiery arrows of destruction and shooting towards the air pirate ship, and then grazed the lookout where Odus was, and pierced the slipway behind.

The Red Bolt of Destruction carved a hole the size of a human head in the slipway, only two or three paces away from Odus's head. Through the telescope, Odus could almost see the shape of the tyrant's mouth with a "tsk".

When he came to his senses, Odus was slumped on the deck. If the Kirin's shot was a little more accurate, or the two ships were a little closer, then he would ...... now

A beast of prey is a beast of prey, a predator is a predator, whether on earth or in heaven, it is by no means an object that can be insulted casually! Obviously, his own side has an overwhelming advantage, but Oduspo felt an indescribable fear, and he raised the telescope again with a trembling hand to confirm the source of his fear. And when he saw that the Qilin was stepping on the spear and stone crossbow with his feet, pulling the string with one hand and the arrow with the other, the fear that held him tightly suddenly burst out.

"Stand back! All back, five hundred meters...... No, get back a thousand meters away!"

Odus gave orders in a panic as he desperately fled towards the cabin.

........................

"Tsk, a bunch of spineless guys......"

Looking at the appearance of the air pirate ship retreating, Qilin angrily put down the spear and crossbow in his hand. In the chase just now, they had come to the airspace quite close to Warhammer Volcano, and the smoke from the crater made the vision quite bad, and unless he had the perverted vision of a wild elf, no matter how powerful he was, he would not be able to snipe at a target a thousand meters away.

"How's it going?"

A deck behind him was lifted, and Xiude emerged from it, confirming it to him.

"No, those guys were just temporarily scared off. The Kirin casually threw the spear and stone crossbow to several sailors who rushed to the scene, and the weight of the giant crossbow smashed into a muffled grunt.

"If only they retreated......" Xiude looked melancholy at the air pirate ship trailing far behind.

“...... No, I think they'll be back soon. The unicorn brutally shattered Xiude's delusions.

"In other words, we have to do it again like this?" said Xiude, gesturing at the spear and stone crossbow that the sailors were carrying.

"This trick shouldn't be useful anymore. Kirin shook his hand helplessly. "Those guys aren't stupid, as long as they hide in the cabin, I can't take aim. ”

"Hey, what should I do?" asked Xiude with a sad face.

"How would I know?" Qilin shrugged his shoulders irresponsibly, and then said in a brisk tone, "Why don't we pray to that Amun? Since it's a sky god, this little thing shouldn't be difficult for it, right?"

"Amon is the god in charge of the sky, and will never intervene in the grievances between humans!" the boatswain's voice sounded behind him. Kirin turned around, and saw that old Simba was walking towards him with the amulet of Amon in his hand.

"Won't intervene in human grievances?" Kirin wondered.

"Yes. Old Simba nodded firmly.

"I didn't expect this guy to be quite principled......" Kirin sighed.

Speaking of which, the air thief is also a member of the human race, and if there really is a god in the sky, it should be regarded as cannibalism between the same race, right?

"Stupid, that's not the case at all. Xiude interjected and revealed the truth of the matter in an ungodly tone. "The air thieves also believe in Amon, and Amon is also the patron saint of the air thieves. Since both sides are believers, Amun can only choose neutrality. ”

“...... He's really an undisciplined guy. Kirin immediately retracted his opinion.

"Gong ...... Childe!" Old Simba seemed to be desperately controlling his feelings, and his old face turned red. "What's in it for you to bring Amun's wrath......? Do you want to cause us all to be buried together?"

"What's the matter?Anyway, it's a god borrowed from the celestials, and if Amon can really help us through this crisis, it's not too late for me to apologize to it......" Kirin waved his hand nonchalantly, and was about to say a few words to comfort the boatswain, when a strange feeling suddenly welled up in his heart, as if some kind of behemoth beast was peeking at him from behind.

The metaphor of the frog and the snake is not appropriate, and magnifying the feeling of being watched by the abyssal multi-headed lizard in the wilderness by 10,000 times is probably the source of the creepy sense of crisis behind the unicorn. The feeling was so strong that the hairs on Qilin's whole body stood up in an instant. He looked back without saying a word, but what he saw was a gray void, and nothing remained except the air currents of the airship.

（...... Was it a delusion? No, there was something just now...... That chilling feeling was fleeting, and Kirin looked at the cold sweat on his palm, making sure it wasn't his own delusion.

"Childe, you...... Are you alright?" Old Simba seemed to wonder why Kirin suddenly didn't speak.

“...... Uncle, I want to ask you something. Kirin decided to ask the experienced veteran sailor in front of him for advice. "Did you just feel something looking at us?"

"What's looking at?" Old Simba was stunned for a moment, then shook his head blankly.

"It's like the feeling of a giant beast staring at the back, it's creepy, as if you can stomp a person flat with a leg lift?" Kirin added in detail.

"No, I don't ...... anything" Old Simba, who was about to shake his head, seemed to suddenly remember something, his face turned pale in an instant, and even his voice trembled.

"Gong ...... Childe, you ...... Don't you scare me...... In heaven, there are a lot of jokes that can't be made casually, and they will ...... Something will happen. ”

"I'm not kidding?"

When Kirin said this, the boatswain's face turned pale.

"I did feel something staring at me from behind...... You say, this will cause trouble?" Qilin asked with a frown.

"That'...... That's ......" a word came out of the boatswain's trembling lips. "Ah...... Amon's Peep ......"

"Amon's peep, that sky god is looking at us?" Xiude next to him interjected with great interest, and showed his optimistic spirit. "Interesting, did it hear our prayers and want to help us deal with the pirate ship over there?"

"Childe, you ...... Didn't you think that your words would arouse Amon's anger?" Old Simba trembled with anger, but he didn't have time to deal with them, but quickly knelt down on the deck, clutching Amon's amulet tightly in his hand, and the words in his mouth seemed to calm Amun's anger.

“...... Hey, what do you think?" asked Kirin to Xiude. Although he didn't believe in strange powers and gods, the sky was beyond his common sense. Looking at the boatswain's dejected appearance, I wonder if there is really something like Amun and other natural forces in the sky, otherwise how can I explain the creepy feeling just now?

"Well, the sky has been a place full of mysteries since ancient times, but no one knows the truth behind those mysteries, and all that has been passed down are various legends and stories that have indeed existed. Xiude shrugged. "All in all, let's try to deal with the crisis in front of us, and if the Ancestor can really hear us, I think it's ...... likely that he will help us."

Xiude, who was talking, suddenly stopped speaking, and at the same time stared at a certain place in the sky with wide eyes.

At the moment of reaction, the Qilin also looked back, and what caught his eye was a pillar of fire radiating a blazing red light.

Pillars of fire erupted from the midbelly of the volcano below, soaring into the sky like bloodthirsty pythons, and the next second, the air thief ship trailing behind them was hit by the pillar of fire.

The air pirate ship exploded into a flaming fireball with a violent explosion and crashed towards the forest below. Under the stunned gaze of Qilin and the others, the burning air thief ship was quickly engulfed by the dense forest sea, and it didn't take long for only a faint wisp of green smoke to remain, and it quickly dissipated with the wind......
