The Blue Avenger sailed extremely briskly on the smooth mirror-like sea. As a ghost ship from the Tudot era, despite its ancient style, the advantage of not requiring crew scheduling still makes it appear nimble and fast.

Alger with dark blue hair and a rugged face. Standing at the bow of the ship, Wilson relied on his extraordinary navigation skills to summon air currents to help the ghost ship adjust its course.

They weren't on the safe shipping lanes that navy, pirates, and adventurers had carved out over the centuries, but as the "Victim of Calamity," Alger had no fear, just the most basic vigilance.

Until there was a faint sound of heavy noise ahead, and a few sail shadows faintly appeared. The grayish vapor mist is unusually conspicuous on a clear day.

Alger's expression perked, he took out a scroll from his waist, shook it open, and lit it with his spirit while whispering in the ancient Hermetic language, "Hidden! ”

In the bits of starlight that the scroll dissipated, his figure, along with the small hull of the "Blue Avenger", became illusory and transparent, and it seemed that it did not really exist, and even the traces and information they left in the spirit world were obscured by more complex and harmless information.

Whether it is with the naked eye or by occult means, it is difficult to detect the existence of the "Blue Avenger" at this time.

Taking advantage of this opportunity to quickly make their way to the place of battle, Alger confirmed that one side was the fleet of "Vice Admiral Dusk" flying the greatsword and sunset flag, including Buratov. Ivan's main ship "Dusk" and the remaining three battleships.

The ships were now in a crunched position, protected by a semi-circular, dawn-like shield of light to deal with the torrent of enemy 40-pounder guns.

The flag hanging from the attacker's mast depicts ten white stars of the same size, all of which together are clustered around a pupil without eyelashes and unusually cold.

It's the "Future" of the "Queen of the Stars"!

Of course, in addition to this main ship, five or six battleships under the command of the "Star Queen" also sideways over the ship's side, fanning out, and constantly firing at the fleet of the "Vice Admiral Dusk" with the largest striking area.

Alger couldn't help but memorize the styles and flags of those ships. As a member of the Tarot Society, he naturally knew that the "Hermit" lady had finally consolidated her position in the "Morse Ascetic" after more than half a year of hard work, and perhaps there was also supervision and assistance from the "Morse Ascetic" in these ships.

Within two minutes of Alger driving the "Blue Avenger" close to the battlefield, the "Vice Admiral Dusk" fleet, which had been in a hurry after a surprise attack, quickly set up its position and began to try to fight back. The sound of the cannon became more and more intense, and the otherwise calm sea water became waves, and the surrounding sea was covered in gray smoke from the artillery.

-

Buratov. Ivan's brow furrowed.

He is more than two meters tall, his whole person is like a moving iron tower, and his firm back is like an anchor firmly anchoring the confidence of all the crew.

But at this moment, as the conning tower of the fleet, Ivan had a secret uneasiness in his heart.

On the one hand, as a sequence five, she has reached the "Queen of Stars" who has reached the demigod, and even if there is a ship full of seals, Ivan does not dare to hold it up.

After all, when it comes to seals, the number of the "Morse Ascetics" will only be more, not less.

On the other hand, being accurately intercepted the secret route and being perfectly ambushed by the other party made him break out in a cold sweat behind his back.

As a pawn of the "God of War Church" in the five seas, Ivan has led the fleet for nearly ten years and has not been promoted to a demigod so far, and it would be hypocritical to say that he has no opinion on the church. Not extremely religious, he chose the "Resurrection Sect" with the former Patriarch in charge of the fall of the God of War and the split of the church, one of the purposes of which was to take this opportunity to become a true powerhouse of demigods and demigods.

As for the prospects of the "resurrectionists", he didn't really care, and his only wish was that the "resurrectionists" would be able to support themselves until the day they were promoted. On paper, the "Resurrectionists" are not at all disadvantages, at least all the maritime resources of the Church of the God of War have been inherited by Ivan.

But the surprise attack of the "Star Queen" gave Ivan the feeling that the scales were swinging in one direction.

It was at this moment that he felt a certain sense of genuine sorrow and desolation about the fall of the god at his head.

Even the "Morse Ascetic", a guy who hides in the gutter like a rat crossing the street, dares to take advantage of the fire to rob, and how many pairs of greedy eyes are there in the whole mysterious world staring at this tempting cake?

Maybe it's time to reconsider your prospects......

"Hoo ......"

With a long exhale, Ivan closed his eyes, clearing his inner distractions and focusing on the battle at hand.

Only the living have the right to choose a side.

Under his timely and decisive command, and the extra-large area of the "shield of light" activated by the seal, the damage to the fleet was completely within acceptable limits. However, Ivan knew that physical attacks were just an appetizer, and the extraordinary means of the "Star Queen" were the biggest killer moves.

On the other hand, if the situation is turned into a scorching hand-to-side battle, the "Twilight Fleet", which is dominated by "warriors", "hunters", "sailors", etc., will be able to achieve at least partial superiority.

In order to escape safely, it is necessary to first beat the enemy to the point where he does not dare to reach out.

Depending on his mission, Ivan could even accept seals or loot that had been swept away by the other party.

As long as you can get back to Vrsack, things aren't too bad.

With his hands clasped in front of his chest, a giant sword condensed from pure brilliance appeared in Ivan's hand. He held aloft the "Morning Dawn Sword" and shouted in a deep voice:

"For the glory of the warriors, we will never retreat! Forward! Only the heroic spirits who die in battle can step into the kingdom of the Lord!

"Polishing our blades with the flesh and blood of our enemies! Forward! Offer victory and glory to the Lord and call upon the Lord's gaze!

"Onward! Smash them, crush them, and show the mad cultists how foolish their choice is!

"Onward!"

Seeing the unmistakable light of the sword and hearing Ivan's sonorous shout, the devout disciples who had been selected to board the ship stood their weapons on their chests with their hands on their chests and made sword-like prayer gestures, revealing fanatical expressions.

Many people chanted the name of the god of war and prayed for blessings and protection from the "Lord of Power and Glory."

Under the sudden high morale, the "Dusk" slowly turned its bow to the left and aimed at the "Future".

As a battleship with a frenzy of combat effectiveness, in addition to advanced steam artillery, the "Dusk" is also equipped with a huge iron ramming angle that is almost obsolete by the times.

Ordinary sailing ships and even steam hybrid passenger ships are hit like this, and they are not far from sinking.

-

On the bridge of the "Future", looking at the "Dusk" that was gradually speeding up, Gadelia indifferently pushed the purely decorative lenses on the bridge of her nose.

After being promoted to demigod, the magical item that sealed the "Voyeur Eye" lost its usefulness, but out of nostalgic habit, she still wore it.

Under the bridge, the first mate Frank, who is physically and physically haired like a brown bear. Li held a cannonball under his left armpit, put his right hand above his eyebrows to look at it, and shouted with a smile: "Captain, they are rushing over!" ”

Boatswain Nina hurried to the tactical position with a group of sailors, and when she heard this, she gave Frank a very easy look, and shouted in a voice that would not lose to him: "We are not blind!" Go where you need to go! ”

Disappreciating the cannonballs, Frank rushed to the deck in twos and threes, and laughed and patted the side of the Future as he cautiously pulled out extraordinary items and all sorts of strange alchemical products that others didn't quite want to see.

"Our old fellow is much smarter, prettier, and more reliable than the boat on the other side!"

As an oversized sailing ship that leans towards the mysterious side, the "Future" has its own complete protective magic.

Gadelia was not prepared to wait for the "Dusk" to succeed, and the spiritual intuition from the "Master of Prophecy" reminded her that the time had come, and that the "Hanged Man" must be nearby at this moment, waiting for cooperation.

In a naval battle of this magnitude, a small ship could not influence the outcome of the battle at all.

But the sea is always the best stage for a "catastrophe priest".

She raised her hands slightly, and the flying starlight clearly transmitted the words to the ears of every crew member, and everyone acted in an orderly manner under the command.

The occult symbols depicted on the deck, cabins, masts, etc., of the "Future", appear in a certain order with a faint purple light, and together they build a huge volume of ritual magic.

-

Ivan stared coldly at the Future, which was shrouded in extraordinary power.

The peculiarities of the ships of the pirate kings were no secret to the other pirates, and Ivan dared to give this order, naturally taking the factors into account.

Not to mention the collision between the "Shield of Light" and the opposite protection, the "Dusk" also carries a Level 1 seal with excellent attack power.

His pirates were also ready to activate the seal, just waiting for an order.

Seeing that the distance between the two ships was getting closer and closer, when all the people were nervous, a trace of discordant sound sounded.

"Ship, captain! It's been a change! It's been a change! ”

The second boatswain, a "windwieldman" on deck, suddenly looked up at the sky with a look of horror on his face.

Above everyone's heads, the originally clear sky seemed to be covered in cascading black clouds in an instant, and they were heavily suppressed, obscuring most of the light. If it weren't for the soft glow of the Shield of Light, the Twilight would have been as dark as dusk.

Ivan, who wanted to reprimand the other party for making a fuss, quickly realized the abnormality of the celestial phenomena when he saw this, and the uneasiness in his heart suddenly increased. But as the captain, he still stood up straight and comforted his subordinates with the most resolute gesture: "This is the Sea of Mist, the Sea of Mist that devours countless lives every day!" Storms are the most common thing at sea! Don't panic, the 'Shield of Light' can withstand the demigods, could the storm be more terrifying than the demigods? ”

Seeing that the "Future" was also in the range of clouds, most of the crew regained their composure under the trust of the captain and the seal, and even had the mood to laugh at the trembling "sailor" passing companions around them.

A pirate with a hook on his arm grinned and put his hand on the shoulder of the man next to him, and said disdainfully, "Don't you 'sailors' like rainy days the most?" Hey, head up, a bit of a man! ”

The "sailor", who was almost crushed by the aura of the high-level presence in the dark clouds and faint thunder, slowly turned his head to look at him without blood, shook off the hook arm with the greatest courage in his life, and rushed to the side of the ship without saying a word, ready to jump into the sea to escape.

His spiritual instincts were frantically warning him of death! Will die!! Will die!!

The sudden defection made the surrounding pirates stunned for a moment.

It's just a storm, as far as it's concerned?

At the moment when the "sailor" stepped on the side of the ship with one foot, everyone's vision was first dimmed, then brightened.

The dimness comes from the pitch-black clouds that suddenly converge above the Twilight; The brightness comes from the dense pillars of thunder and lightning that poured down from the sky in an instant, like a torrential rain!

Countless lightning and thunder crashed wildly across the surface of the Shield of Light, and roaring hurricanes and sudden waves fueled the apocalyptic scene. At this moment, most of the sailors on the "Dusk" and the surrounding battleships screamed and covered their ears and eyes, but they could not stop the blood from gushing out of the holes in their faces.

The most primitive and ancient natural disasters befell them, evoking fear that seemed to be carved into their blood. The fleet of the "Vice Admiral Dusk" quickly lost more than half of its combat strength, and due to the confusion of personnel, many protective measures did not even have a chance to be activated.

A few of the higher Being, such as Ivan, were also intimidated by this brief earthquake of Heavenly Punishment without warning.

Especially when he saw that the "Future", which was less than 100 meters away, was neat and orderly, and was only affected by a little wind and waves, Ivan couldn't believe his eyes.

The wealth of occult knowledge led Ivan to quickly make several conjectures, each of which was too outrageous for him to accept.

For example, a demigod from the Storm Path came to the aid of the Star Queen.

With the Church of Storm's control over the sea, the wild storm passes through the demigods, and it is almost an existence that can only be dreamed of.

Not to mention that the existence of such a powerful king of the sea would be so low-key and take such care of the "Star Queen".

He couldn't help but look up at the "shield of light" that shrouded the hull of the ship like the morning light above him, and found that the hemispherical light was constantly being consumed by lightning strikes, becoming dim and weak, but there was no sign of shattering.

Maybe it's just a seal! There is still a chance, there is still a chance......

Ivan's biggest regret at the moment is that the "Dusk" is not a ghost ship that can move at will. At a time when the sailors were incapacitated, he, a "guardian", had no means to speed up the ship.

As long as the ship and people rush over, the "Future" will never bury him, so that the deadly storm can stop.

With such a powerful seal, even the Morse Ascetic Sect probably won't be able to use it a second time in one day.

On the bright side, at least the storm didn't come when we were ready to flee......

Constantly encouraging himself, Ivan was about to find a way to help his men regain their mobility, when he saw the purple light flowing on the "Future" continue to converge to a point.

Above the sea, an ethereal, but heavy mirage emerged.

It was two bustling cities, with fine stone buildings, and the people who walked the streets were rich in stature, drinking and merry, doing all sorts of squandering and sinful things, but showing no remorse.

One day, the wrath of the gods descended on these two fallen cities, erasing them from the face of the earth.

The meteorites and flames falling from the sky are so real and so terrifying that it makes people feel like their skin is drying out and their hair is curling.

No, no!

That's not fantasy, it's reality!

The "Shield of Light", which represents the strongest defensive ability of the demigod level, was finally overwhelmed after two saturation blows of the same level of power in succession, and under Ivan's desperate gaze, it let out a subtle cracking sound, and then completely shattered!

The violent impact caused the "Dusk" to break into four or five sections of unrecognizable debris without resistance, and was swept away, swallowed, and completely disappeared by the waves nearly ten meters high.
