Zhao Changhe and Sanniang didn't expect that this night spying would make them even more confused.
Even though Sanniang no longer had much hatred towards Hai Changkong, she still treated him as a passerby and never thought that he might be a good person.
However, he did say "kill without mercy", so if it was all acted out and Sanniang was really killed, would you be responsible
Sanniang thought back to those years. This guy chased her without mercy and really wanted to kill her. If it weren't for her subordinates who risked their lives to save her, she would have really died. It didn't seem like an act at all.
It was a fog, and they couldn't see clearly. The two of them continued to lurk and spy patiently until the banquet was over, the Penglai generals went to sleep, and nothing special happened.
Sanniang looked at the general who wanted to tip off the general, and wanted to ask him. However, she felt that everything was weird here, and wondered if her presence would harm others. She was hesitant to make a decision for a long time.
"Patience." Zhao Changhe squeezed her hand and whispered, "We are in the dark now, and they are in the light. We can watch from the sidelines. Nothing can escape our eyes. We just need to adapt to the situation as it arises."
Sanniang felt relieved and said, "Well, what about Lai Qi..."
"If we don't get involved, I can't think of any way Lai Qi can refuse. He will either die or be recruited."
When they returned to Lai Qi's guesthouse, they ran into Lai Qi coming back from outside in a panic. Seeing the two of them coming back, Lai Qi was embarrassed for a moment, but still confessed honestly: "I want to leave at night. The guard who was so polite and led the way just now refused to let me go, and no matter what excuses I made, I couldn't return to the ship."
Zhao Changhe did not blame him for abandoning his "guards" and patted his shoulders: "Surrender honestly and wait and see tomorrow. I don't think you can destroy the country, at least not now. But if you resist, you will die now, and we may not be able to protect you."
Sure enough, Lai Qi was struggling for the whole night, and when he was about to surrender to Hai Changkong the next morning, he heard a commotion on the shore.
Lai Qi ran over quickly and saw Zhao Changhe and his wife hiding side by side watching the show.
Hai Changkong on the shore gave a cold order: "Since you won't surrender, don't blame me for being ruthless... Go, leave no one alive."
"Boom boom boom!" The Penglai warships opened fire in unison, and there were actually cannons on board.
The power of this artillery is hard to describe. It can only make a hole on the opponent's deck. Its actual power is not as good as the crossbow brought by the Tang family, but it still amazed Zhao Changhe.
When thermal weapons appeared in the world, this in itself was something that could make time travelers excited. As for how powerful it was, whether it could be improved, how long it would take, and even if it evolved into modern weapons, whether it could have the ability to hurt gods and demons, that was another matter.
The other party is an unknown small country. They probably just arrived today, and Hai Changkong directly persuaded them to surrender, and then the talks broke down.
The other party dared to fail in the negotiation, of course, they were countless times stronger than Lai Qi's fleet, so they had some confidence. After all, not every country was as weak as Lai Qi's, and the total strength of all countries added up was still good.
The two sides were in a stalemate outside the coast. Due to the absolute gap in armaments, the fleet of this small country soon fell into a disadvantage and was retreating while fighting.
At this moment, another small country fleet arrived from afar, shouting: "What happened!~"
The fleet of the small country that was resisting immediately responded: "Penglai Kingdom wants to annex our fleet and country!"
The Penglai fleet did not explain. As they watched the enemy approach, Hai Changkong personally rushed into the other ship's bow and killed the enemy general with one palm. He then returned to his own ship as if he was strolling in the garden.
The new fleet was completely dumbfounded: "Hai Changkong! You are so ambitious! Do you really think that Penglai is invincible?"
The new fleet also joined the battle. Zhao Changhe felt that Hai Changkong was simply stupid. He was normal with Lai Qi last night, but what was he doing today
Even though others are weaker than you, they are not that weak when combined. If they really fight like this outside, everything will collapse.
Look, on your own ship, someone was shot and killed. There are casualties. Why is this happening
"Did you see it?" Just as he was confused, he received Sanniang's voice transmission: "The soul of the deceased just now was scattered into the void and was absorbed by the transmission... This is a sacrifice, and it is a sacrifice of one's own believers... The bones of the sacrificed people may be eaten by the sea creatures and evolve into new giant fish people."
Zhao Changhe glanced at her and asked, "Why are you so familiar with this kind of evil magic?" The past when Sanniang brought the Azure Dragon Coffin back to the Four Symbols Sect from Beimang flashed through Zhao Changhe's mind, and he suddenly wondered if the Four Symbols Sect also had similar evil magic
Is the so-called Night Emperor's revival ultimately pointing to this? Hence the name Demon Cult.
Sanniang didn't know what he was thinking, and continued to speak very knowledgeably, "I feel that it's because our previous battle caused the Sea God to suffer unacceptable casualties among the sea tribes that had been accumulated for a long time. In order to revive, he can't wait to use the method of slowly cultivating faith. This kind of sacrifice is the fastest way."
Zhao Changhe said: "So it is possible that the Sea God is behind Hai Changkong's oppression of other countries? Whether it is believers from other countries or his own believers in Penglai, they are all sacrificed in the war... So Hai Changkong doesn't care at all, just to kill people, no matter if they are enemies or friends. Otherwise, this kind of brainless and self-destructive behavior cannot be explained."
Sanniang hesitated for a moment, but still said "hmm": "Lai Qi came early and was too weak, so he didn't get beaten directly. Is that lucky?"
Zhao Changhe said: "If this is his strategy, will the pirate group still fight?"
This is what Sanniang finds most puzzling: "In fact, it would be better to subdue them and drive them to explore the way ahead. They can still be of great use when fighting against the pirates. Now that they are fighting in a group, will the pirates still be able to fight..."
While the young couple was talking, many fleets arrived one after another. After all, there was only one day left until the agreed date, and most people did not dare to come exactly on time, so they would come a day early, basically at this time.
As a result, the scene became more and more chaotic. No one knew what was going on and it became a mess.
Zhao Changhe suddenly thought that if the pirates suddenly attacked at this time, they might be able to completely wipe out the coalition forces here...
Just as I was thinking this, a horn sounded in the distance.
A pirate flag appeared at the junction of the sea and the sky, followed by two, three, and soon, it blocked out the sun and the sky.
A huge group of pirate ships approached rapidly from a distance, like a black wave, sweeping towards the island.
"It's the Angry Sea Gang. The Angry Sea Gang is attacking us!"
"It's the Tianyuan Pirates!"
Two different names were heard in different ships, and someone shouted at Hai Changkong: "Marshal Hai, at this point, you still want a civil war?"
"Fight, why not fight?" Hai Changkong waved his hand and said, "Leave no one alive!"
Everyone was stunned, even Zhao Changhe and Sanniang stared with their eyes wide open.
All unreasonable actions suddenly become reasonable when Hai Changkong and the Tianyuan Pirates become one family
So the question is, since it is confirmed that there is a sacrificial array in Penglai's ship, launching such a massacre war is intended to be a sacrifice. Does the pirate group know this
After all this time, it turns out that even the pirate group is Poseidon's people

PS: I have a low-grade fever and diarrhea today, I don’t know if it’s because of the air-conditioning or the sun. I was able to finish writing the update, I’m as tough as Zhao Changhe, and even more handsome than him.
Should I take a day off tomorrow to see how things go after taking the medicine tonight
