Chapter282 Soul Harvest (Asking for a Monthly Pass Subscription)
The blue sea and the blue sky will not always be smooth sailing, begging for a life on the sea, you will never avoid meeting some people who do not work hard, they have many names, pirates, water pirates, sea marauders, but the most famous is the pirate, because only the cruel pirate can completely control this rough sea world and become the king of another field - the pirate king.
Although he had already had the corresponding psychological expectations, Lester was still a little surprised to meet pirates so soon, obviously there were hostile forces that had targeted the somewhat deceitful [Sumer] when they were on Pallas Island, which led to the arrival of uninvited guests less than a month after leaving Hong Kong.
The captain of the ship, Kyilan, hurriedly came out of the cabin and looked at the distant sea level with his precious brass binoculars.
Four clippers arced downwind towards the Sumer, and behind the clippers there was a three-sail ship flying the black flag of a skeletal pirate, a short hand axe embedded in the cracked skull, showing its prey indifference and ruthlessness.
"It's the fleet of Harrog the Skullsplitter, don't panic! With Lord Nicholas here, we won't be harmed in any way! ”
Putting down the brass binoculars, and in the pale faces of the crew, Keylan came to the foredeck and saluted the handsome man on the deck who was petting the dragon bird.
"My lord, with our strength alone, we will definitely not be the match of those pirates, please allow me to ask you for help."
Patting Thea, who was a little dissatisfied with Kyilan, to make the little guy less resentful, Lester stood up and casually looked at the clipper in the distance, with a strange smile on his face.
The reason why it is strange is because even Kaelan, who has seen a lot of other people's faces and is good at interpreting emotions from expressions, can't understand why the man in front of him has such an expression, but vaguely feels that such an expression is terrifying.
"Captain Keylan, don't be so polite, protecting this ship is within our agreement, but I just need you to wait here for me for a while."
"Of course, we will be waiting for you until the moment you return in triumph...... Put all the sails away!! ”
After a moment's hesitation, the sailors still put away the three large sails according to the captain's order, and let the ship stand still on the sea.
This is a manifestation of absolute trust.
Taking a deep look at the old captain, Lester mounted the excited Silver Pterodactyl Bird and flew towards the distant pirate ship under the excited and adoring gaze of the Sumerian crew.
……
On the deck of the Skullsplitter, several wooden cages with chains swayed slightly, and the dried corpses in the wooden cages sang the praises of the brutal with their remnants, and intimidated other disobedient slaves.
Harrog, who was enjoying the service of a beautiful woman in a leather chair, heard the insults and uneasiness from his subordinates, and couldn't help frowning, and told the woman next to him to quickly stop feeding the grapes, lest her unmeasured behavior annoy the pirate leader, and be rewarded by the moody man to his subordinates, becoming the next dried corpse.
"My lord, the secret of the [Sumer] is the [Mutant Dragonbird], and the dragonbird has flown towards us."
Before Harrog could reprimand his men, the pirate leader's centurion, Leopot, explained.
"I'm afraid that dragon bird is going to attack us!"
"Dragonfowl?? A dragon bird??? You're not dreaming, are you? ”
Harrog, who has been robbing the Watchmen Sea for more than ten years and has become a tyrant in the Watchmen's Sea, thinks he is well-informed, but he has never heard such an outrageous thing.
A dragon bird on a boat? And also attacks on other ships?
Are you kidding? What the hell in broad daylight?
Put dragons and birds on boats as parrots?
No longer waiting for victory, Harrog, who came to the side of the ship, took the telescope handed by Leopold.
In sight, a silver-scaled dragon bird with dark inky edges had just landed on a speedboat, and then jumped down a faint black shadow.
"Damn, am I dazzled? There's another guy on the dragon bird?? ”
With an expression of disbelief, the telescope returned to Leoper's hand, and after looking at it for a long time, the pirate's face was a little strange.
"Your Excellency, you read that right, there is a man on our ship......
Before Leopold could continue, their faces changed suddenly.
Even without binoculars, everyone present could see that a terrible cold wave erupted on the clipper, and the entire hull was instantly frozen, sinking rapidly in the sea water.
There is no doubt that dozens of pirate skimmers aboard the clipper have been turned into popsicles and buried in the deep sea along with the hull.
Dozens of lives quickly withered away in a dozen seconds, and the whole process was so simple that even the brutal pirates could chill their bodies.
They are not afraid of dying in battle, but the dead should not die like this, and it is worthless and glorious to die like this.
The dragon bird once again spread its wings and flew towards another speedboat, apparently trying to repeat its old tricks.
"Ice Mage...... Above the dragon bird is a powerful ice mage! Retreat now! Right full rudder! Deflect the sails to the northwest! Retreat immediately!! ”
Recovering from shock and fear, Harrog no longer ignored the demeanor of the pirate leader and yelled at the crew.
The helmsman who had been given the order began to spin the rudder, and the trumpeter was about to blow the horn to retreat, but was stopped by Harrog.
"If you don't want to die, you just shut your mouth for me! Otherwise, I wouldn't mind keeping you here! ”
Nodding nervously, the trumpeter understood what Harrog meant.
There is always an outcast in the retreat, and the three surviving clippers have lost their chance to escape, but they can fight for the [Skullsplitter] to escape.
Even in the face of flying dragons and birds, such an escape chance is very slim, but it is always a way out.
The bow of the ship began to turn and deviate, so it was naturally impossible to go against the wind, and after quickly adjusting the sails, the [Skullsplitter] quickly headed northwest.
The relentless slaughter behind the big ship continued, seeing the other three clippers sink into the Sea of Watchmen in the ice storm, the pirates of the fourth clipper ship have completely despaired, and directly give up the idea of escaping, choosing to wait for death.
Before the dragon bird fell, a handsome man in a simple black robe jumped off the back of the dragon bird, and it was Lester who had already killed hundreds of pirates and plundered the souls of the pirates into the red runes and dark seals.
No matter which one it is, it is a big soul demander, and for Lester, there are not many souls sent to the door.
"Please, Master Mage! Take our lives around! We are willing to be your slave for the rest of our lives! As long as you can let us go! ”
Some people knelt on the ground and kowtowed, hoping to get a way to live.
"It's a pity that I don't need slaves right now."
Rubbing the [Dark Seal] on the index finger of his right hand, Lester pressed his hand on the head of the kneeling man, and the cold condensed.
"All I need is your soul."
The ice exploded, and black spells lingered on the bodies of each frozen, stripping away the soul.
As the fourth clipper sank into the sea, the silent Sumer was filled with a god that could not be offended.
