Chapter Twenty-Six: The Mermaid War

Wren did not take his part, he did as Augusto commanded,

Follow the other sailors and mercenaries back down. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Everyone spread out their defensive line in the central area of the deck.

Ogudo's sword was already on his back, and he was holding the crossbow arrows he had asked for from the mercenaries.

Aiming at the target in the bow area.

The moment the crossbow bolts were fired, the surrounding singing stopped, and the sound of falling water was heard one after another.

Listening to the scale of the number of overboard, there are quite a few enemies, dozens or hundreds.

"Crossbowmen ready! they're coming!" Ogudo dropped his bolts and returned from the bow to the middle of the deck.

As soon as he returned, a terrible woman's scream came from around the [Dragon Eagle],

Then the long-haired beauties climbed up from the side of the ship, flicked the fish's tails behind them, and rushed straight towards the defensive line.

Seeing the mermaid attacking, the mercenaries remembered to pull the crossbow machine.

The crossbow arrows are so powerful that they pierce the beautiful mermaid's body.

But regardless of whether it was an arrow or not, the mermaid that flew to the ground attacked the people around it with its teeth and claws.

Seeing a face twisted like a devil, nails as long as a falcon's claws,

The mercenaries and sailors also had no idea of pity, and shouted and waved their weapons and began to fight.

Wren whipped away a mermaid that was about to sneak up on the mercenary's back, and then hurriedly dodged the claws that were caught beside him.

The mermaids around were fighting fiercely, and it was inconvenient for Wren to use the long whip, and he saw that there were mermaids climbing up on the side of the ship.

Wren swept a passage with a swing of his whip, then rushed to the side of the ship and began to crack and flick his whip quickly.

The most efficient of the melee was Ogudo, who strolled the chaotic deck with his sword in hand.

Seeing a mercenary or sailor in danger and needing help, every time he saw how he waved his hand, the mermaid in attack was already in a different place.

Wren, who was fighting on the side of the ship, relied on the power of the purple and gold whip to beat the mermaids who wanted to get close and climb up.

Although it doesn't cut people in two like Augusto, there is no mermaid with clothes to beat the skin and flesh.

The moment the purple whip adheres to the enemy, it absorbs the energy from the enemy.

When the energy accumulated to a certain amount, it began to cover Wren in purple flames.

The purple flame did no harm to Wren, but it did produce an unbearable burning sensation on the surrounding enemies.

Maybe it's because of Wren's bravery, or maybe it's because the mermaid is afraid of fire, in short, since Wren and the purple whip were attached to the purple flames,

The mermaid never attacked him again.

Instead, they bypassed him one by one and went to find others to fight.

After stopping the landing of the mermaid on one side of the ship, Wren began to help attack outside the melee warband.

Soon let the sailors and mercenary groups rebuild their defenses.

With the help of spears and swords, the mermaid began to be effectively expelled from the center of the deck.

Only then did Wren pay attention to the battle on the stern side, where there was also a scuffle.

There were also many mermaids who climbed up from the stern, and the battle at the stern was very tragic.

"Augusto, stern!" Wren shouted briefly, and then continued to wield the purple and gold whip,

Whip the mermaids who are trying to get around themselves.

Wren didn't have the energy to look at the stern, but he only had to listen to the strange screams of the mermaids when they were killed.

The crisis in the stern has been lifted.

Thinking that the stern of the ship should have been regained control by Augusto, Wren hurriedly shouted, "Captain, reverse the ship, get out of here first." ”

"Ship down, ship down!" responded to Captain Robert's gruff voice, followed by the sound of the first mate delivering commands below deck.

Hearing that the two of them were safe and sound, Wren felt a lot more relieved.

For a long time, the [Dragon Eagle] did not carry out the order, and it was not good to remember that the mermaid had climbed up from the wall of the ship.

"Augusto, the deck is handed over to you. I'll take a look below!"

After swinging a few whips out of the passage, Wren hurried to the hatch leading to the lower deck, quickly lifted it and jumped down.

Sure enough, as Wren had predicted, the mermaid had gone below deck.

Some slender mermaids, drilled through the holes of the flank guns without artillery.

Fortunately, the space below the deck is small, and the sailors and the remaining mercenaries, using the cover of various cabins,

In the effective defense against the invasion of mermaids.

Wren hurried down the corridor of the cabin, killing the small, but even weaker, mermaids with no power to fight back.

With his assistance, many sailors and mercenaries rushed out of the room and followed Wren all the way down.

From the habitation floor to the paddle floor, the invading mermaids were finally cleaned up.

Since the paddle layer and the lower cargo layer cannot be directly drilled by mermaids,

Wren asked the sailors and mercenaries to protect the passage to the living and paddle levels.

Then he went back to deck.

At this time, the [Dragon Eagle] had already begun to slowly retreat with the help of oars.

The hull of the [Dragon Eagle] began to be hit by heavy objects, like a big fish frantically out of the water and slamming towards the hull of the [Dragon Eagle].

And the retreat speed of the [Dragon Eagle] is getting slower and slower.

"The enemy has wrapped up the oars. They are biting the oars. "There was an urgent report from the first mate at the stern.

Wren went to the side of the ship and was really scared.

There were at least four or five mermaids crawling on each oar, desperately gnawing at the oars with their mouths.

Although the oars are made of fine pine, they can't withstand the gnawing of these fanged monsters.

"Quick! put the oars away. Wren hurriedly ordered, but the first mate had already given the order below deck.

Wren saw that most of the oars were pulled back without any problems, but unfortunately, four oars were gnawed off.

Although the others have been taken back, it is estimated that many of them have been gnawed so that they can no longer be used.

According to conservative estimates, the Dragon Eagle has lost almost half of its oars.

Although there are still a few replacement oars, they are not enough to make up for the damage, and the [Dragon Eagle] will not be able to row with full oars for the time being.

"Captain Robert, Mr. Tadoni, think of a way to get the ship out of this hellish place. ”

Looking at the mermaids that kept climbing up, Wren felt that it was really inconvenient to stay here.

Although the limelight of mermaids has been beaten, they are monsters after all, and they are relatively large in number,

If we continue to fight like this, I am afraid that the number of casualties will continue to increase.

Looking at it now, the casualties are the worst in more than two years.

The bodies of some dead sailors and mercenaries are being snatched by some mermaids.

Some have been dragged back into the sea, and even Wren can't bear to look at how miserable it is after falling into the water.

Due to the mermaid's successive attacks, Wren and the others were unable to take care of the bones of their dead brother.

Only desperately protecting the living and escaping from this dangerous place is the right way.

"Change the sails! Hurry! The sea monsoon is coming. ”

Captain Robert finally gave a new command, and several sailors, under the cover of their companions, climbed the rope ladder.

Mermaids can climb the walls of boats, and naturally they can also climb rope ladders.

They see people climbing up the rope ladder, like seeing pieces of meat moving on the rope ladder.

A part of the people who abandoned the deck began to chase the sailors up the rope ladder.

"Crossbowmen!

Without Wren's order, Ogudo, as the captain of the battle, has already issued orders in time.

He himself was not idle, with a man-high sword in one hand, and ran up the rope ladder in a way Wren had never seen before.

I saw the rope of the ladder that had been stepped on move again, but I couldn't see the feet of Augusto.

Contrary to Wren's previous knowledge, Augudo walked on the rope ladder as if he were on the ground, quickly eliminating the mermaid on a rope ladder.

The remaining mermaids on the rope ladder on three sides were partially shot by crossbowmen,

But there are still fish that slip through the net.

If it was on flat ground, Ogudo would definitely be able to kill them in an instant.

But now on a rope ladder, even if he can walk on it in an inhuman manner,

The speed is not as terrifying as on land.

Seeing that a sailor climbing on a rope ladder was about to be chased by three mermaids behind him, the witty sailor jumped onto the rope hanging from the side.

With the help of a cable, it was swung to the mast crossbar away from the rope ladder.

Wren breathed a sigh of relief at the sight of the sailors who had escaped.

But he never thought that the sailor on the other rope ladder did not have such good luck, and after a scream, he was pounced on by two mermaids.

and was dragged into the sea.

Just when Wren's heart sank, thinking that the sailor was about to be brutally killed in the sea,

The figure of Augudo suddenly appeared next to the sailor.

His long sword shook out two black shadows, and then the two mermaids that entangled the sailor splashed blood mist,

Then Ogudo grabbed the sailor in one hand and plunged his sword into the wall of the ship with the other.

Wren's position could not see the figures of the two falling, and he did not know how the two were alive and dead.

However, the sailor, who soon fell, was thrown up, followed by the unscathed Ogudo.

"Whew, Captain, you're amazing! Everyone, work hard! Kill these monsters!"

"Kill them!"

......

The frenzied shouts of sailors and mercenaries rang out on the deck, and they seemed to be suddenly filled with energy.

One by one, they were more brave and powerful than just now, cutting down the mermaids on the deck one by one.

Drive the mermaids back into the sea one by one.
