Chapter Seventy-Eight: Merchant Ships

Lei Ming raised his hand to take it, wiped the corners of his mouth, and asked, "How much did you lose this time?"

"Two large warships were slightly damaged, five medium-sized warships sank, and there were not many casualties. Sayles hesitated for a moment and said, "More than 50,000 catties of grain have been lost. ”

Lei Ming's brows furrowed slightly, and his heart was a little heavy. There was not much food in the first place, but now a quarter of the surname has been lost, which can be said to be worse. "Let's go to the top of the island to have a look. ”

His body swayed, and he leaped up the cliff with ape-like dexterity. When the sea breeze blew, my heart calmed down a lot.

The island is small and located in the middle of a group of islands. Surrounded by islands on both sides, it is particularly secluded. Directly in front of it, it is a canyon, and the sea water pours in to form waves that crash against the rocks and scatter into foam. Standing on the cliff, the scene ahead is clearly visible.

A huge fleet loomed over the distant sea, densely packed with no less than a hundred merchant ships. On the mast is a flag of a cross wrapped in a six-pointed star, fluttering in the wind.

A green light that was invisible to the naked eye appeared in Lei Ming's eyes, and he used his insight. The gaze seems to ignore the barrier of space, and the blurred scene is clearly displayed in front of him. His expression froze, he withdrew his gaze, walked behind the rock next to him, and beckoned, "Sayles, follow me." ”

"My lord, what's going on?" Sayles asked curiously, following quickly.

"See for yourself. Lei Ming sat cross-legged on the ground, closed his eyes, and thought about something.

Sayles' lips twitched, unable to utter a word for a while. My heart felt like I had been scratched by a cat, and I felt very uncomfortable. From time to time, he looked at the surface of the sea, but he never found anything.

The sun rises overhead, and the view on the sea is exceptionally clear. Sayles subconsciously poked his head out, his pupils shrank, he quickly retracted it, and reminded in a low voice: "My lord, a caravan is coming here, and the flag is the Chamber of Commerce under the Temple of Light." ”

"Got it, keep watching. Lei Ming's eyes didn't open, and he was secretly thinking about something in his heart.

"My lord, I didn't expect you to see it in advance from such a distance. Sayles was stunned for a moment, his expression abrupt.

As soon as the merchant ships of the Temple of Light approached the Sliman Islands, hundreds of large and medium-sized pirate ships with various patterns rushed up from their hiding places and surrounded them. With an earth-shattering shout, the pirate rushed forward fiercely with a scimitar in hand.

"Are these pirates crazy?" Sayles' eyes widened, his mouth growing into an O-shape, and his jaw nearly falling to the ground.

Thunder opened his eyes when he heard the sound and looked over. Densely packed with pirates, desperately attacking merchant ships. glanced at it, and there were no less than 10,000 people. He looked startled, and secretly rejoiced in his heart.

If it weren't for last night's storm at sea, pirates might have discovered it as soon as they approached the island. When the time comes, it will be difficult to get out.

Sayles came back to his senses, fell to his knees, prayed silently, and asked, "My lord, what should we do next? Do you want to come to the rescue? This can ease the relationship with the temple." ”

"How much can we help? Lei Ming pursed his lips in disdain, smiled playfully, and said, "Since you are so keen to rescue the merchant ships of the Temple of Light, do you want Viscount Ben to send you?"

"My lord, my subordinates didn't mean that. Sayles felt a chill in his heart, felt a cold swish in his neck, and hurriedly shook his head.

Lei Ming snorted coldly, and a green light invisible to the naked eye appeared in his eyes, and with the eye of fate, things in the next forty minutes flashed through his mind like lightning. He touched his chin and said lightly: "The order, all the crew members are not allowed to make fires, make too much noise, and violators will be killed." ”

"Yes, sir. Sayles wiped the cold sweat from his face, solemnly responded, and bowed down the cliff.

Lei Ming's eyes narrowed slightly, and he turned his head to look at the battlefield.

Hundreds of big ships staggered their teeth, shouting and killing to the sky. Bright red blood flowed down the deck to the surface of the sea, staining the nearby area red. The waves were churning, the smell of blood was strong, and groups of demonic beasts in the sea began to gather.

Six Sky Knights above level 17, catch and fight. The ship is colorful and vindictive, the sword shines everywhere, and the large merchant ship is full of sword marks, crumbling. Medium-sized merchant ships made several huge attacks and sank directly.

The battle of the high-level knights is too amazing, and the enemy and the enemy deliberately avoid it, freeing up a huge territory.

"This is the real knight. Lei Ming's eyes were hot, his heart was full of yearning, and he couldn't wait to rush up and fight immediately.

"My lord, everything is ready. Sayles whispered over and whispered.

Lei Ming nodded, retracting his gaze. Take a deep breath and forcibly suppress the impulse in your heart. I looked at the sun in the sky and secretly estimated the time. A green light appeared in his eyes, and the eye of fate was used.

"It's that look again. Sayles shouted in his heart, feeling uncomfortable. He took two steps back without moving, and his eyes showed a thick wariness. "My lord, I only like women. Moreover, the subordinates have thick skin and thick meat, which is really not suitable!"

"What fits and doesn't?" Thunder was interrupted in thought, a little unpleasant. Seeing how he squirmed, he almost threw up. His heart moved, and he said without smiling: "Sayles, very good, it turns out that Viscount Ben is this kind of person in your heart." Yes, very imaginative, go down and sail!"

He got up and patted Sails on the shoulder softly, some people in the nobility had special hobbies, and thunder had heard of this kind of thing. In this regard, he neither opposes nor supports, his personal hobbies are different, and there is nothing to say. It's just that he doesn't even have the slightest idea about this kind of thing.

Thunder ran his fighting spirit, shook the dust off his body, jumped a few times, and returned to the ship.

"My lord, I didn't mean that. Sayles followed, his face turning bitter. He wanted to slap himself now, he had never seen him so stupid before. Can you ask this kind of question casually?

"Shut up. The muscles at the corners of Lei Ming's mouth twitched a few times, and he said with a dark face: "Set sail immediately, sail towards the location mentioned by Viscount Ben." ”

With a wave of his sleeves, he strode into the cabin and slammed the door shut.

The crew received the order and began to get busy. The flotilla raised its sails, quietly changed direction, and headed out to sea. The sun slowly sets, and the sky begins to turn a dull deep purple, and it shouldn't be much time before the stars and the moon will be revealed.

The fleet traveled for half a day and came to a group of islands scattered around a dozen islands, surrounded by reefs and undercurrents.

There was a gentle knock on the hatch, and Bowen pushed the door in, coughed dryly, and said cautiously, "My lord, I've arrived at the place." ”

Thunder used the eye of fate, and things flashed by in the next forty minutes. After pondering for a moment, he said: "Let the fleet find a place to hide, eat some dry food, and prepare for battle." ”

"Follow your will. Bowen covered his mouth, coughed a few times, and bowed and withdrew.

Lei Ming gripped the hilt of his sword, his eyes shining. With hundreds of ships of food, this risk is worth taking.
