Chapter 30: Ballista Roll Call
There's no time to think about it anymore.
It's almost instinctive.
Su Ye turned sideways at a ghostly speed, and slid his steps in a flash!
The next moment.
Phew!
The piercing sound of breaking the air sounded in Su Ye's ears!
A crossbow bolt the size of a baby's arm, glittering with cold light, slashed not far from his side!
The air is surging!
A screeching sonic boom resounded in the air!
Splatter!
The bolts were nailed to the deck, and a burst of sawdust scattered in all directions.
One of the crew members was stabbed in the eye by the flying sawdust, and in pain, rolled on the ground and wailed.
And this, even lucky.
There were two crew members who were directly hit by crossbow arrows, and they were killed on the spot without saying a word.
The death was terrible and terrifying!
"Ballista ......" Su Ye felt a chill in his heart.
The speed of the ballista engraved with the acceleration pattern is too fast!
The ordinary crew of the Flying Serpent, who didn't even have time to react, encountered a deadly attack from the ballista!
For them, the ballista roll call is like a Russian turntable.
Draw and die!
Their reaction speed and protective techniques are meaningless in front of the ballistas!
The only thing you can rely on is luck.
Even Su Ye almost died.
"Luckily, after many upgrades, my spiritual senses are very sharp."
"Once you are targeted and locked by a ballista, you can feel it and react in advance."
Su Ye's mind was slightly settled, and he had a little confidence.
The speed of the bolt is indeed fast.
However, he didn't need to be faster than a crossbow bolt.
Just react ahead of the pirate who fires the ballista!
"Shoot me back!"
Luo Qingjun stood up from the ground in embarrassment, straightened the captain's hat, and roared to organize a counterattack.
But at this time......
Laugh at! Laugh at! Laugh at!
On the pirate ship, another salvo of ballistas!
"Captain! Be careful! ”
As soon as Luo Qingjun stood up, he was hurriedly pressed to the ground by the first mate, prostrate and dodged.
Then, the pirate ship fires ballistas, killing and injuring the crew of the Flying Serpent!
In this case, the morale of the crew plummeted, and even collapsed!
The Flying Snake was quickly suppressed by the ferocious fire of the pirate ship!
……
"Someone, help me!"
"My legs ...... Ahh!!hhhhh ”
After the baptism of ballistas.
On the deck, blood flowed and corpses were severed, like purgatory.
There are also several crew members, who are lucky not to die, but they are seriously disabled and have damaged limbs.
Lying on the ground, constantly wailing, and the voice is terrible!
"Hoo ......"
Su Ye leaned against a boat plank, sweat oozing from his forehead, sticking to his hair.
Even with the help of spiritual acuity, the experience of 'dodging ballistas' was definitely not pleasant.
The sense of crisis in all directions is endless, one after another!
It's nerve-wracking and your heart is beating hard!
Su Ye's blood was agitated, his chest was heaving, and his heart was almost jumping out of his throat.
But in his mind, he still retains his calmness and analyzes the situation!
The situation is ......
I can only say that it is not good.
"The firepower is twice as bad, and even if there is a first attack, it has been completely suppressed."
Looking back on it now.
The pirate ship's tactics are not subtle, but they are correct and effective!
Withstand the Ballista fire of the Flying Serpent, pay casualties, and force the distance closer.
Subsequently, it turned to the horizontal and fully exerted its own firepower advantage!
As everyone knows.
The closer you are, the higher the accuracy!
The more ballistas, the more firepower!
Has a high-precision bonus at close range.
The combined casualties of the Flying Serpent's several attacks at a distance were less than a salvo from the pirate ship at close range!
Such casualties led to the morale of the crew, and the Flying Snake was quickly suppressed!
At this time, there was not even a single person on the deck of the Flying Snake who could stand!
Of course, not all the crew members died.
More than 50 people!
Even if the pirate pulled the crossbow string into smoke, it was estimated that he would not be able to kill it so quickly.
It's just that the surviving crews, after their morale collapsed, fled separately.
Now, they huddled behind blind spots and covers, shivering, trembling and praying to heaven.
"The deterrent power of ballistas is really terrifying......"
Su Ye's face was solemn and he hid behind the ship's plank.
In the face of the unreasonable thing of the ballista, he did not dare to act rashly.
Spiritual acuity, of course, can bring him advantages, but it is not omnipotent.
Just now, for example, there were two ballistas, aiming at him at the same time!
That time, Su Yezhi tried his best to move, and he narrowly escaped this killing robbery!
It was a wake-up call for him.
"If multiple ballistas are locked at the same time, even if it is me, I am also in danger of death!"
Su Ye took a deep breath, relieving the tension in his heart and recovering his strength.
"Wait!"
He's waiting for the pirates to take over!
The two sides are in close proximity!
It's impossible for a pirate to be so mad that a ballista kills his own people, right?
……
And at this time, on board the pirate ship.
Standing stood a yin owl man dressed in a short fight and wearing a tattoo.
He glanced at the Flying Serpent, at the empty deck under the ballista, and laughed strangely.
"Hmph, the Luo family is just like this, a group of cowards ......"
"Go on, bombard me with a ballista!"
Hearing this, beside him, a man wearing a draping veil hat and covering his face interrupted.
"Alright, Shamok, don't waste your crossbow arrows!"
"Do you know how expensive a crossbow bolt of this trait is?!"
"Even if you buy it in batches, you will need three spirit stones and two spirit sands for one!"
"Command your men, lean over and take over the Flying Serpent!"
"Be careful, those two ballistas must be captured and not damaged!"
"Heh, Shu Liu, you have no right to interfere with my command......" Shamok narrowed his eyes, his face impatient.
"That's fine." Shu Liu sneered.
His expression was indifferent, "If you waste any more crossbow arrows, you will deduct them from the agreed payment!" ”
"You dare?!"
As soon as he heard this, Shamok's expression suddenly became fierce.
"What? What do you want to do? Shu Liu sneered.
"Pirates willing to cooperate are rare, but they can always be found!"
"However, who else but us would want to take the risk and help you natives of the archipelago?"
"Without our help, how long can your clan last?"
Shu Liu's words, like a sharp knife, stabbed Shamok in the heart, making his face change.
"Hoo ......"
Shamok took a deep breath and suppressed his anger abruptly.
He stopped arguing, turned his head, switched to an awkward indigenous language, and shouted.
"Warriors, turn the sails, get close to our trophies!"
"Whew!!"
On the pirate ship, the crew of the pirate ship, dressed in tattoos like him, with a strong indigenous style, let out a savage and excited roar.
Shu Liu watched coldly, disdainful in his heart.
'What a bunch of rude beasts, lowly natives of the archipelago, if they weren't for their usefulness......
