Section 63 Chaos and the Death of Warlocks
Chapter 63: Chaos and the Death of Warlocks
If the Northland bandits are the most hated, the raiders of the Crow tribe are definitely in the first few places, the barbarians who always roam around in specially bred black crows, arguably the most old-fashioned paranoids, who hate all foreign elements, including merchants, religions, priests, lords, and even those of their own people who have converted their faith.
Because of their unique mounts, the strong city walls, the biggest barrier that humans rely on to defend against monsters, are useless in front of the Crow tribe, and I don't know how many towns and villages have been poisoned by them, but fortunately, the Crow tribe prefers to stay in the deep mountains and old forests most of the time, and mainly uses the barbarian tribe of the griffon's nest as their old enemy.
Today, however, these terrifying creatures joined forces with the barbarians of the Elk Tribe, and a dozen huge black crows swooped down from the low cliffs dozens of feet high, carrying the knights on their backs. Although the giant black crow is powerful, it is not good at long-distance flights, so the tactics of these air thieves are a bit special, just like the airborne troops, after each giant crow carrying two barbarians into the battlefield, they will generally quickly dive behind the enemy and throw them down, and then return to the take-off point to carry the new knights, the main battlefield of the black crow knights is on the ground, not in the sky, they will throw a lethal throwing spear before landing, and then pull the throwing spear from the enemy's corpse as a stabbing spear after landing.
Under this sudden attack, the sailing ship with the "Sir Henry" can be regarded as a great loss, compared to the technical training of human warriors, the barbarians struggling in the wilderness are more inclined to instinctive fighting, so in the high-speed conflict of hand-to-hand combat, the sailors on board are almost at the touch of a touch, completely unable to resist the attack of the crow barbarians, if there is no accident, the fall of this sailing ship is a matter of time.
On the "Sir Henry", it was a different situation, the sailors' bows and crossbows did not cause much damage to the giant crows, but they were prepared in time to avoid the enemy's guns, and they hid back in the cabin, leaving only William, Yasuna and Phinea on the entire deck, and it seemed that Morgan was full of confidence in William.
William glanced at the chaotic battlefield, although the tactics of the crow tribe were chaotic and unorganized, they were extremely sharp, and these barbarians with black feathers on their heads and their faces painted with unknown tree paint were not an exaggeration to describe them as "fierce and not afraid of death". William sideways to avoid the stabbing wooden spear, the slightly fishy sweet smell on the tip of the spear made his face change, and his hand broke his dream, picking the enemy into two pieces with the spear, William shouted: "Phineayasuna be careful of their weapons, they are coated with poison." As he spoke, he wandered swiftly like a ghost, and the barbarians who boarded the ship could not catch up with him at all, and could only watch his companions fall to the death of William's sword.
Phinea was a different kind of rampage, her monstrous dragon's tooth bone shield looked more terrifying than Thunderfrost, and she roared and slammed into any enemy in her way, and all the barbarians who were photographed would turn into a lifelike ice sculpture in the blink of an eye, and then be smashed into powder by Thunder Frost. After hearing William's warning, Yasuna had to run to Phinea to take care of the rough daughter, and from time to time she waved her shield to block the hidden spear that stabbed Phinea from behind.
At this time, Xiao Mi Sha'er was standing at the entrance of the cabin, her little face was flushed with excitement, and she was jumping up and down with a pure gold sword in her hand.
The advantage of William and the others in such a skirmish was too obvious, and the second group of airborne Crow Knights had not yet arrived, and the first group of boarders had already been killed and wounded. William glanced at Mi Sha'er, who was dragging Mi Luna to this side, and shouted to Phinea, who was still in a state of excitement: "Phinea go and watch Mi Sha'er, don't let her come out and make trouble." Phinea's smiling face fell, and she put away the dragon's tooth bone shield in displeasure, strode forward and lifted the little girl who screamed wah-wah, and took her neck and stuffed her back into the cabin.
William looked at the little guy with a smile on his face, turned his head and said to Morgan: "Captain Morgan, bring the boat over, after all, it is also a long journey with the other party, take a hand to save the scene." β,
Morgan was just about to reply, when suddenly a thunderbolt came from a distance, turning into several lightning bolts and falling on the deck of the sailing ship, which was almost occupied by the barbarian robbers, and the unsuspecting barbarians were immediately put down.
Morgan looked in the direction where the thunder was flying, his face suddenly changed, and he called out loudly: "The first mate will take people to the oars room immediately, we are going to speed up" and then whispered to William, "That's Cooks' ship, and the person standing on the bow should be him, the first strong man of the Naismail City Guard, the leader of the saints, and a powerful fighter for divine power." Be careful, William, that bastard's nose is sharper than a wolf's. No, I'll have to dodge. William looked at Morgan, who had hurried back to the cabin, with a slight smile on his face.
The most unfortunate and innocent sailing ship of the implicated had been drifting slowly down the river, and the "Sir Henry" began to accelerate as the sailors paddled their oars, gradually parallel to each other. Downstream of the galleon, the galleon of Kuks was also approaching at high speed, and it was less than a stone's throw away from the two ships upstream, and William noticed that on the deck of the sailing ship coming from the downstream stood seven or eight strangers in silk robes, each accompanied by several armored guards.
At this time, the second group of crow barbarians was approaching, but when they saw cone flames, lightning, ice cubes, or acid shoot out of the hands of the silk-robed man, and in the blink of an eye they crashed into the giant crow swarm, and suddenly the flames burst out, the thunder roared, and the crows and riders fell one after another with screams, and a disgusting scorching smell spread.
William also took out his steel war bow, opened his bow and shot it at the sky, and a giant crow that had managed to avoid the magic attack screamed and fell into the river with the crew on its back. William continued to shoot with his bow in succession, and the arrows shot out were like eyes, and they all hit, and the remaining crow knights fell like rain, and they were killed and injured in a short time, and the originally chaotic sky suddenly cleared up.
All the spectators stared blankly at William, and the dark war bow in his hand, and couldn't help but swallow their saliva secretly, they had the illusion of being nervous, just as the warriors were afraid of the unpredictable magic, and they were also afraid of the precise and terrifying arrows, including the caster.
The battle on the deck of the innocently swept sailing ship continued, and the few remaining savages were struggling to resist the siege of the regained sailors, but it seemed that "two fists were invincible to four hands", and it seemed that they would not last long.
It has to be said that the barbarians are indeed difficult to achieve, the raiders in the air have almost been wiped out, and the men on the ground have only remembered to attack and respond, and hundreds of barbarians carrying rafts and animal kayaks have emerged along the banks of the river, and they have jumped into the river and rushed towards the three sailing boats on rudimentary buoys. These stupid barbarians don't want to think about how they can shake the three sailing ships that can be regarded as behemoths relatively speaking.
"Sir Henry" continued to accelerate, and gradually overtook the hapless sailing ship, but the approaching Cucks slowly began to slow down, the two ships got closer and closer, and the opposite side could already be clearly seen above, Yasuna came behind William and whispered, "William, do you want to do it first?"
William smiled slightly, glanced at the barbarians rushing over from the shore, looked at the sailboat in front of him and said, "Don't reveal your identity first, the other party may not be coming at us." By the way, what about the woman named Morris? I didn't seem to see her just now. β
Yasuna said "um", "Morris seems to be in the cabin, why don't I go down and take a look?"
William nodded and said, "It's okay, be careful to let her make trouble." Yasuna glanced at the approaching sailboat, nodded and walked back to the cabin.
Kuks is a slender and sturdy middle-aged man, the most impressive thing is his tall hooked nose, of course, no one can ignore the cold eyes, with a coldness that penetrates deep into the bone marrow, making the observer involuntarily flustered. But this is really nothing to William, no matter how arrogant the shape is, he has seen it, not to mention that William has what he thinks is the most harmless smile on his face, and the steel war bow in his hand swung at Kux a few times.
Cooks looked at William with a smirk on his face, and he couldn't help but be surprised by the young overly face, but Cooks didn't show it, but snorted lightly, slowly bowed his head at William, and then ignored it.
The two ships crossed each other, Cooks was still standing on the bow of the ship and posing, and several spellcasters behind him moved, as if they had released detection spells on the "Sir Henry", but the "Sir Henry" didn't seem to react at all, whether it was good or bad, several spellcasters looked at each other and couldn't help but look at each other. ,
Cooks still stood motionless and asked, "What's wrong?"
One of the spellcasters bowed and replied, "Can't be sure, Captain Cooks. The detection spell didn't react at all, as if the spell didn't work. β
At this time, there was a sudden loud bang in the stern of the "Sir Henry", and a fiery red figure screamed and broke through the deck and flew upside down, it was actually the sorceress Morris, and from the deck came the strange laughter of Millet Sha'er: "Oh Yasuna, why did you beat Moris away? One arm, that's going to hurt a lot. Miluna, don't hold me, heyβit's going to fall. β
On the deck, Morris covered her left arm with her right hand, which had lost her wrist, and muttered to herself while vomiting blood: "How could my spell not work? damn little thing" The sorceress suddenly looked up and saw the sailboat next to her, and immediately shouted: "Captain Cooks, quickly intercept this ship, they are uh"
A carved arrow had passed through Morris's throat at some point, Morris's brown eyes looked at the bow of the ship in disbelief, and then fell into a distraction, and the whole person fell lightly on the deck, while William on the bow of the ship held the war bow with a smirk, as if to justify his innocence.
