Seeing the barnacle cannonballs carrying the terrifying "coral disease" flying in, the two could no longer care about any differences in ideas.

Sam Leopold suddenly clasped his hands together, and the sound was like thunder, and he burst into a shout:

"Royal!"

Buzz——!

With a low roar, a golden fortress phantom centered on his body, instantly expanding to cover the entire town.

The walls of the town made of thick logs are dyed with a solid golden glow.

Nearly two thousand anchor chains rose from all over the town in an instant, anchoring to him.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Sixteen shells fired from the sea fell one after another on an invisible barrier, and then bounced out along the sloping barrier.

Even the barnacle larvae scattered around didn't invade the town in the slightest.

This is exactly the class ability of the Fortress Sequence 3rd Order Fortress Specialist [Iron Ambition].

As long as you have the necessary defenses in the place where you stand, such as walls, moats, or even small horse rejections, you can turn it into a fortress under your control.

The stronger the physical level of the city defenses, and the more people on the mysterious level trust that he will not fall, the stronger this "fortress" will be.

At the same time, the Stronghold Specialist can also use various auras to bless the defending troops, bringing them together as a whole, even if the fortress is large.

The ability to resist artillery fire is one of the "protective long-range attacks", which in ancient times was also called "powerful defensive arrows".

Therefore, a fortress with a fortress expert and a fortress without a fortress expert will have a completely different defensive power.

"Quick, get into combat position!"

Sam Leopold fended off the first wave of attacks, and armed members of the Lancastrian Party poured out from all over the town, into the towers, and up the log fence.

The biggest problem now is that they don't mean to run Gonave Island as a business.

The eyes have always been on Catherine's hands for the thriving Teyman Islands, and even ready to retake Port Royal Jamestown, which was rightfully theirs.

In addition, the time to establish the town here is too short, the city defenses are too weak, and there is a serious lack of heavy weapons that can suppress the [Maywind].

Relying solely on [Iron Ambition] to resist artillery bombardment will not last.

Everyone couldn't help but feel like a great enemy.

At the same time, there was movement on the monster battleship that had just completed a salvo, and there was a splash of water under the ship.

Then a series of waterlines appeared on the surface of the sea, and before they could go ashore, [Cave Enemy Opportunity] Burley Tania had already "seen" their true appearance.

The skin seems to be pale from long-term soaking, and the exposed body is covered with barnacles, corals, scales, and brachiopods

A considerable number of them have even transformed into non-human marine creatures, not a single species, but a messy hodgepodge.

I don't know if the crab split the leg, or the coral derailed, in short, it's just one word: chaos!

A fishy smell came with the moisture of the seawater.

He immediately ordered:

"Attention everyone, it's the coral people who have coral disease.

Units reload their shotguns and wait until they get close to the fence before firing.

According to the information shared by the Lighthouse Federation, they are slow to move on land, and if they dare to go ashore and attack us, they are asking for their own death.

Just be careful not to come into close contact with them, and coral disease will not infect you. ”

Considering the rainy nature of the Bantaan Islands, which are located in the tropics, the relevant fortifications are sheltered from the rain, and even all firearms in the open line are equipped with rain covers.

Although the heavy rain had an impact, the pressure on them was not too serious, and at least seventy percent of the firepower could be retained.

However.

Surprisingly, the parasitic Coral People did not lose as much of their mobility as the intelligence claimed.

Although the speed has been reduced, it is only slightly slower than in the water.

One by one, they stepped on the muddy and slippery ground, as if they were galloping horses with all their might.

Just stubbornly withstood the defensive firepower, ate a volley of muskets, and slammed into the wooden gate blessed by [Iron Ambition], making a loud rumbling sound.

Few fell in the way of the charge.

More Coral people also tried to jump on the spot and rush up the wall, but were desperately driven down by the defenders who reacted in time.

Seeing this, Beretania was shocked.

Immediately, through the powerful perception of [Breath of All Things], I gained insight into the cause of the accident, and suddenly realized:

"I see, it's a rainstorm!

During this time, the number of ships at sea was greatly reduced, and it was no longer possible to satisfy the Maywind's desire to hunt.

But the dry land will greatly weaken it and the coral people, but when the rainy season comes, the land will be full of water.

This problem will also be gone.

I'm afraid that the coral man's range of movement can only be two kilometers from the shore will disappear with it.

The land can no longer provide us with protection.

If, as usual, a heavy rain lasts for a few days or even half a month, the coral disease will probably expand like a snowball, and then flood countless colonial towns!

They must be repulsed and the camp moved immediately. ”

Realizing that the situation was critical, he immediately drew his sword in his hand, wisps of white water spitting between his mouth and nose.

When this storm knight was promoted to the second rank, he chose a different path from Byron and obtained the core ability [Breath of All Things].

He didn't need to comprehend it himself, so he mastered the "flow" in the low sequence, and automatically realized the "divine vision" after the promotion in the middle sequence.

God's vision is very different from that of human beings, and through the frequency of breathing close to all things, he can not only see things that are invisible to the naked eye, but also borrow the power of all things.

And when he can achieve synaesthesia with the "god" who dominates everything in the human body, that is, the "self" who is absolutely free, he can achieve the "holy descent" of his divine skills.

"Breathe—inhale—"

Burley Tania lacks enough tempering to reach the level of "Holy Descent" for the time being, but it is easy to breathe with all things and borrow their powers.

Just like now, the sky and the earth are full of white water vapor, which makes him resonate smoothly and borrow the power that belongs to water.

It is not an exaggeration to call it the breath of water.

Beretania was covered in steam, and exploded, and his whole body flew out like an arrow from the string.

Looking at the enemy outside the wall and the sea in the distance, his eyes were sharp:

"The king who mainly relies on bloodline inheritance rather than ability is of uneven quality, and there is no guarantee that every generation is a Ming Jun.

From then on, the king only had to be the nominal commander-in-chief.

Even if there are different heirs competing for the throne, it is impossible to rely on the military power in your hands to lead to the destruction of life.

The real governance of the country must be handed over to talented people.

And I, Burley Tania, will prove to everyone that I am the most talented of all! ”

He always believed that the rule of law should be greater than the rule of man, and that the country should be led by talented people.

If someone is more suitable than him, he voluntarily backs down.

Unfortunately, not at the moment!

The unshakable will of anyone else is his way.

Fortunately, when Byron had just received news of the Lancastrian Party from his aunt Megniera, he did not immediately rush over to recognize him.

Otherwise, in the future, you can only live a miserable life with a large group of beauties in tops, reaching out for food, and opening your mouth, without shame.

Who would be willing to indulge in this kind of low-level pleasure that can only be "popped" in addition to eating, drinking, and having fun?

"Storm Knights, come with me!"

"Yes!"

More than twenty Storm Knights, who had already been in place, drew their swords and either launched the [Children of the Storm] or the [Breath of Everything], and followed behind Berettania like the wind blowing over the top of the log wall.

Cut off all the coral people who rushed up in two.

"These coral people are only better than the physical transformation, and they are stronger than ordinary people, but their wisdom has shrunk greatly with reason, and their strength is no more than that"

But he didn't finish his words.

I saw an illusory red battle flag waving suddenly in the sky above the Maywind.

The Storm Knights are all people who have seen the world, and they immediately recognized that it was a heroic battle banner that belonged to a fourth-order hero!

It is also the basis for hero-level transcendents to build heroic troops.

Again, this is an unexpected situation that has never appeared in intelligence.

As we all know, the most fundamental difference between the combat effectiveness of the third and fourth orders is that one is alone, and the other is hugging each other.

The most powerful general hero skill of a fourth-order transcendent is - side by side.

Originally, they thought that the monster battleship would not be able to go ashore, and the danger was controllable, but their faces were extremely ugly.

"Could it be that the legendary fourth-order heroic captain of the Maywind, the adventurer [Infinite Evolutionary] Balboa, who has survived all the 'Extreme Eight', has not died?

Just fell with their own battleships.

This week, the main purpose of frantically attacking ships on major trade routes is not to kill, but to replenish their own guards?! ”

It's like a reflection of what they think.

The water rolled again, and behind the ship eight huge blood-red octopus tentacles appeared and waved wildly.

One after another, dilapidated schooners of the sloop class surfaced.

Each ship was covered in barnacles, and from the shattered deck grew fuchsia tentacles much smaller than the Maywind.

The Guards after Balboa's fall turned out to be a fleet of monsters tainted by it.

[Cave Enemy Initiative] attempts to breathe with [Maywind] and steal the information it carries.

"These are ships with coral disease?"

However, it was shocked to find that coral disease can not only infect humans, but also ships.

The octopus has three hearts and nine brains, and it seems that the other party only needs to split each of the eight tentacles into a part and parasitize it on other shipwrecks.

At the same time, some of those "Coral People" will also be absorbed by the ship in the later stage of infection.

With the tentacles that act as brains, the inorganic ship is transformed into a semi-biomass living octopus battleship little by little.

Even if the upper limit seems to be only eight lowest-ranking sloops, it is no weaker than a pack of sea monsters.

The eight battleships are like eight tentacles, and at this moment they seem to be commanded by the same brain, and they are quickly lined up on the sea, forming a long battle line.

Thundered

Fleet salvo.

[Iron Ambition] trembled violently, and Old Sam, a fortress expert, also felt a surge of blood in his chest, and almost spit out a mouthful of blood.

And there were a bunch of coral people in each boat who fell into the sea like dumplings, swimming towards the town at high speed.

Let all the defenders fall into deeper despair little by little.

Facing a fourth-order heroic adventurer who had fallen black and had the ability to adapt to evolution, they led themselves to a siege of the Heroic Guards that had accumulated for a week.

Nine warships, thousands of corals, they have no chance of winning.

As confidence was shattered, the strength of Iron Ambition weakened dramatically, and the defenses became porous.

In this distraction, some defenders were accidentally parasitized by barnacle larvae, and their faces turned pale.

"Help me."

And once the gap appears, it is like a dam bursting its banks.

Even if Storm Knight was desperately blocked, it would only be a matter of time before the wall was breached by the Coral Man.

The two third-order looked at each other sadly, and ordered with difficulty:

"Since we below, the Knights of the Storm and the infected are broken, and the others will scatter and escape, and one can escape."

At least there is no double standard in Buretania.

How much power you gain also means how much responsibility you have to bear, and you can't leave your peers behind and run away on your own.

Silently stood at the front of the wall.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The bell for the evacuation was also a little sad.

Their families had already experienced a flight and were already familiar with the process, knowing that the taboo at this time was a waste of time.

Forced to mourn and take what he had prepared a long time ago, he rushed into the heavy rain and began to evacuate towards the depths of the island.

All the combatants who have been infected, led by the Knights of the Storm, clenched their swords and gritted their teeth ready to delay time until the last moment with their flesh and blood.

But after the First World War, the last elite of the Lancastrian Party will eventually be buried here, and the mission to regain the throne and avenge the White Rose will be far away.

This sense of hopelessness of disillusionment makes them feel more grief and anger than death.

Suddenly, in the breath of all things in Buretania.

A golden light on the horizon was as bright as the dawn of dawn, and it suddenly tore through the darkness of the black clouds in front of him.

Immediately, a battleship with a peculiar shape and a golden body turned into a bolt of lightning and slashed waves.

"That's?!"
