Originally, when pirates attacked merchant ships, they always approached the target as quickly as possible. Then a large group of pirates brandished weapons and rushed to the merchant ship, trying to kill and injure the sailors and mercenaries of the merchant ship. In order to rush to the opponent's ship in the shortest time, the pirates Naturally, they have to gather on the deck of their own ship. However, now, these pirates gathered together have become the best targets for magicians to practice magic.
The pirates saw that their ship was less than a hundred meters away from the target. As long as they successfully collided with it, they could immediately swarm up, massacre the sailors of the merchant ship with their numerical advantage, and then seize the merchant ship, but no one knew that There is actually a magician on board a merchant ship. Judging from the density of the magic emitted, it is probably more than the spells cast by five intermediate magicians.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh."
The life-harvesting fireballs whizzed in and landed next to him, making a deafening roar. Then they brought bursts of heat waves, rolling up the body fragments of his companions.
"Boom, boom, boom."
Every explosion was accompanied by the dying screams of his comrades. The charge that usually took less than a minute turned out to be a journey of death.
Ryan doesn't need to spend too much energy on aiming. He only needs to ensure that the fireball he launches is in the correct direction. As long as the fireball hits the "Slaughter" pirate ship, it will hit the pirates who are standing densely waiting to charge. With a fatal blow, Ryan unleashed fireballs towards the "Slaughter" pirate ship. Although he did not use the trump card of "Multiple Casting", the fireballs released every second or so became a nightmare for his opponents. At this moment Ryan is no longer an ordinary boy, but in one fell swoop he transforms into the god of death who harvests souls.
The fireball technique released by Ryan not only killed the pirates on a large scale, but also caused a devastating blow to their ships. After multiple explosions, the front deck of the "Slaughter" no longer existed, and the dark cabin below the deck Thick smoke kept pouring out, and I didn't know what was burned inside. The bulging sail on the mast of the "Slaughter" was also burning fiercely, making a crackling sound.
Several powerful pirates tried to use throwing spears to snipe Ryan, but when the first spear they threw was easily held by Alando who was guarding Ryan, it was followed by Ryan's precise magic missiles. , purple magic missiles shuttled between the two ships, knocking down the spears thrown by the pirates into the sea one by one, and then knocked the spear-throwing pirates into the sea one by one. This This move caused the pirates of the "Slaughter" to completely lose their confidence in winning. They gave up attacking and putting out the blazing flames on their pirate ship. They all grabbed things around them that could make them float, "Plop, pop! "Had to jump into the cold sea,
Kyenst of the "Flying Fish" is indeed an experienced captain. When he saw Ryan and Leal starting to carry out magic attacks on the pirates, he immediately cooperated with them and commanded the "Flying Fish" to make dexterous moves one after another, cleverly avoiding This prevented the enemy from trying to get close to him, which also provided time for Ryan and the others to release magic attacks.
When Kyenst saw that the "Slaughter" that was attacked by Ryan had lost power and was floating on the sea, he immediately issued a series of orders, asking the sailors to turn the oars, change the current course of the "Flying Fish", and bypass the ship. This pirate ship, burning with blazing fire, slowly approached the Blood God.
The damage to the "Blood God" that was attacked by Lear was not that serious. After all, fire magic is far more lethal to wooden ships than water magic. However, because the main sail was destroyed at the first time, this basically made it The speed of the "Blood God", which relies on wind power, has been greatly reduced. This is why, although Lear's magic attacks are not as intensive as Ryan's, with the cooperation of Kyenst, the "Blood God" can still prevent the "Blood God" from getting close to the "Flying Fish" ,
The red-bearded Leo on the "Blood God" obviously did not estimate that his opponent actually had a magician. Seeing that the pirates on the "Slaughter" had been slaughtered by his opponents, the red-bearded Leo sighed and helplessly The order to evacuate was given. After receiving the order, the two pirate ships that were entangled with the escorting warships immediately raised their sails and fled towards the junction of sea and sky without looking back. There was also a pirate ship that was originally prepared to block the merchant ship from escaping. It was torn into pieces by six senior magicians whose strength was not inferior to Lear on another merchant ship.
The main sail of the "Blood God" was frozen by Lear, and the escape speed was greatly reduced. Naturally, Keenst's "Flying Fish" would not let this advantage pass by. He commanded his subordinates to slowly stick to it, while maintaining A certain distance prevented the "Blood God" from desperately trying, and it also stuck close to the opponent, making it impossible for the "Blood God" to escape from itself. Unexpectedly, under the command of Red-bearded Leo, the "Blood God" suddenly dropped a large number of wooden barrels,
Those wooden barrels were obviously specially made. As soon as they were thrown into the sea, they turned into pieces, and the contents stored in them immediately floated on the sea. At a glance, Keenster immediately knew that those things were extremely flammable grease. He didn't even bother to give orders, he grabbed the first mate's steering wheel and personally turned the "Flying Fish" away.
Just after the "Flying Fish" sailed out of this sea area, someone on the "Blood God" fired several rockets. When the oil floating on the sea encountered an open flame, it immediately burned violently. Oil is lighter than water because Floating on the sea, now the entire sea surface floating in grease is burning, and the sound is extremely shocking. Fortunately, Keenster discovered it early and drove the "Flying Fish" away in time. Otherwise, he would be trapped in this sea of fire, and the consequences would be unimaginable.
Under the cover of the "Sea of Fire", the "Blood God" had enough time to break away from the battle and escape into the distance. After the "Blood God" escaped without a trace, everyone on the entire fleet cheered. , this was really a great victory. Seven merchant ships and two warships were able to defeat five fully armed pirate ships. I was unscathed and also destroyed two of my opponent's pirate ships.
However, there was a different scene on the "Flying Fish": Ryan, Alando, Lille and others stood on one side of the deck, confronting them was Keenster and his men. The pirate attack just now made Keenster Exposing his own strength, this naturally aroused the suspicion of Ryan and others. However, Keenst and others did not seem to have any malicious intent, so Ryan and the others were just on guard.
Kyenst hesitated for a long time, and finally decided to tell his intentions honestly. The violent magic attack by Ryan and the others just now also shocked Kyenst. Kyenst and the others participated in the Royal Athletic Competition with Lane last year. That Kyenst and the others had been wearing makeup at that time, so even when they were face to face with Ryan and the others now, Lane could not recognize Kyenst and the others.
Kyenst had not fought against Ryan's Leis team at that time, but they also saw with their own eyes how Ryan and the others defeated the Royal Knights team, and they had an understanding of the strength of Ryan and others. But today Kyenst was once again at close range After witnessing Ryan's strength, I was very glad that I didn't get the lottery to play against them. I finally understood why even the Royal Knights team with an undefeated record lost to Ryan and the others. Of course, Kyenst and the others didn't know. The thing is, in fact, in the Royal Athletic Competition, Ryan and the others are not as strong as they are now. In this regard, Kyenst overestimated Ryan.
"Magic Ryan." Kyenst said: "Please don't get me wrong, we actually have no malicious intentions."
"You know me." When Ryan saw Kyenst calling out his name, he asked, "Who are you and what are your intentions this time."
Kienst considered the words while explaining: "Please don't get me wrong, we have no malicious intent. We have indeed done a little bit of illegal things before, such as transporting some things that are not allowed by law, but we will not blatantly imitate Redbeard." Robbery and murder are everywhere. This time, we actually have no choice. Now the entire southern part of the continent is transporting supplies to the north through merchant ships. Our little smuggling business can no longer continue, so we have to change our profession... "
Under Kyenst's explanation, Ryan and the others temporarily believed him. After all, on the vast sea, if a fight really happened, even if they could win, it would definitely affect the voyage. Ryan and the others did not know how to drive a ship, so , the two sides returned to their previous peace and harmony. Of course, the apparent peace and harmony did not mean that there was no private vigilance. Lille and York strengthened their protection of the batch of supplies they transported, and the two of them simply took it. Living in the cargo hold, with them were thirty mercenaries from the "Magic Hand", while Ryan and Alando simply stayed in the captain's room, euphemistically called: learning ship driving.
Kyenst generously taught Ryan and the others all the knowledge about driving a ship, and no matter what happened on the ship, Kyenst would tell them clearly to show that he had no ill intentions. Kyenst knew Lane's background well. Whether it is Luke, Orlando or Victor, none of them can compete with him as a small smuggler and the occasional guest pirate.
There are too many people with Kyenst's status on the voyages of Sunrise City and Seawind City. Flanner and Lille know very well that for such people, as long as the north-south navigation trade always has huge profits, It is impossible to eradicate. In this case, why bother to kill them all? As long as Kyenst and the others do not violate their own interests, it does not matter whether they smuggle by themselves or help the Free Paradise Business Alliance transport supplies for a fee.
In this way, the two parties spent eleven days peacefully. During this period, thanks to the special friendship between Keenster and others, they became good friends with Ryan, Allen and others, talking and laughing every day, and spending time in boring places. I am not lonely during my voyage,
And on the twelfth day, which was exactly fifteen days after the fleet went to sea, exciting news came from the front of the fleet. Sunrise City was already vividly experienced.
