Chapter 26: Path of Exile III

"The distress signal came from here."

Lair came to the side of the ship and looked down, looking at the three-masted sailboat in the distance with a tattered sail hanging on the empty sea.

"That's the Aoxin Silver Fire. Do we have their contact information?"

"No"

"Go up and have a look."



It took about half an hour before they got close to each other.

After getting closer, the descendants of Flor discovered that the Oxin Silver Fire was covered with horrific scars at this moment - two large holes were opened on the side, the holes almost penetrated each other, and the gun deck inside was completely

It's messy, look at the traces left after being hit by artillery shells.

There are many similar scars, which can be seen everywhere on the bow, poop and deck of the ship.

One mast was broken and fell sideways, the other two masts were also damaged to varying degrees, and the tail was artificially damaged. A shell hit the midbelly of the Aoxin Silver Fire, and the entrance was completely black.

This shot obviously caused extremely serious damage and paralyzed the ship here.

Captain Elain de Lavel received these visitors with some embarrassment.

Lair asked to meet their guild president, but the captain told them politely that the president was not on the ship. In fact, there were not many Chosen Ones on board the Oxin Silver Fire at the moment.

The descendants of Flor looked around.

I saw that the deck of the Oxin Silver Fire was covered with traces of the fight - large areas of blood, bullet marks everywhere, gaps left by slashing weapons, and traces of burning, corrosion or freezing left by magic.

.

Most of the sailors were wounded, but even so there were not many left, and at best they could barely keep the ship running.

They asked the other party what happened, but all they got was vague information. Captain Elain Delaville didn't mention a word about the previous battle, but he could tell them the identity of the attacker.

Judging from what they witnessed, there is no doubt that he is the target on the wanted warrant.

The remaining selectors on the Oxin Silver Fire were easier to talk to, but they were still hesitant when talking about what happened before. Lair could understand their embarrassment, and they would fight more and less so that no one would bring shame on their family.

But from the pieces of information, he still compiled some information.

Although there are few people on the other side, there are a few people who are quite difficult to mess with.

Naturally, the first one to bear the brunt was the leader of the craftsmen. Lair couldn't help but think of the videos he had watched along the way - the opponent was indeed very powerful, whether it was Dolifen's battle or Idos's battle, they were both amazing.

Unlike the people on the Aoxin Silver Fire, he clearly knew some inside stories. Even Qing, the owner of the Blue Cross Star, was said to have suffered from the other party's losses. His level can be imagined.

Although Qing has never disclosed the details of that time to the public, some clues can be gleaned from the vague description of the battle in Idus by the Cang tour group.

But even so, he was still a little surprised by the square plover in the description.

According to the oral descriptions of the remaining Chosen Ones aboard the Oxin Silver Fire, the other party used a very strange structure. At least through the description, he was certain that he had never seen a similar flexible structure model.

That kind of slender construct can be used at both long and near distances. When fighting at long distances, a six-shot magic gun is used. The description of lair is somewhat similar to the Imperial Eleven Type specially designed for constructs.

But in the subsequent description, this magic gun showed the property of destroying demons, which made him a little unsure.

In addition, they also use spear-throwing attacks. The attack of Empire Eleven-style is as high as hundreds, while the attack of spear-throwing is even higher - and the latter is relatively hidden, which poses a particularly great threat to dexterity professions.

In addition, they also used a long knife for melee combat. Although I don't know if it was an exaggeration to cover up their failure, in the descriptions of these people, the opponent's melee attacks were incredibly high.

According to them, some of their melee heavy-armed professions were even able to break through the shield wall with one sword from the opponent's front, and then take away the head with the second sword.

This statement is simply unbelievable. According to the protection level of a protective profession of level 278, unless this sword can cause thousands of damage, he really can't think of the possibility of this scene happening.

"They also have high magic resistance..." A wizard selector told them with lingering fear, "Magic is almost ineffective against them..."

High attack, high mobility, and high magic protection. Even apart from the ability of these strange constructs to be used at both distance and near, in terms of the balanced strength they display, they are at least around level 30.

But in the descriptions of these people, the opponent used a total of ten such structures to fight. Even Lair was a little unbelievable. His first reaction was that it was impossible. If every combat craftsman of more than 20 levels could do it,

If you can control so many flexible structures that far exceed your own level to fight, will other professions be able to survive?

Even though there is such a thing as genius, although there is a gap between people, according to the other party, this is no longer a gap between people, it is simply a gap between people and gods.

At the same level, even if Loofah comes with this strength, it is probably not enough to defeat the opponent with one hand.

"Are these people scared out of their wits?" Others who came with him obviously didn't believe it either. "The attack is high, the mobility is good, and the protection level is above the average. If such a construct really exists,

Then I’ll change my profession to combat craftsman.”

"It sounds like you can change it if you want."

"Go away, didn't I just say that, if the combat craftsmen are really that powerful, then there is no need for other professions in the three major leagues."

Lair shook his head. He had no idea about these exaggerated descriptions, but he was sure that the other party had never used similar structures before.

He was keenly aware that this should be the first time that the other party had taken out this new construct in public. He uploaded these descriptions to the alliance to see if he could get any answers.

In addition to Fang Plover, there are also some outstanding people among the targets on the wanted order.

According to the other party's description, there was a lion-man paladin among them. This big cat man was wearing heavy armor. The model of the magic furnace was unknown. He seemed to have modified it himself. He also used a two-handed sword and could fight with their guild leader.

There has to be a return.

Of course, going back and forth is a euphemism, but the fact is that within about two or three rounds, the latter, who is also a sword warrior, was sent back to the resurrection point.

Different from big guilds, for small guilds like this, their guild leader usually has the highest level and is also the strongest being, otherwise he will not be able to convince the public. It is said that the guild leader of Aoxin Silver Fire has level 29 and is used by both parties.

With the same weapon, the battle can be ended within ten rounds, and the opponent's combat effectiveness can be imagined.

Either the level is higher, or the combat experience is enough to warrant reconsideration.

Lair inquired while checking previous news, and finally found out the identity of the other party from the source of the image data on the wanted order:

"The Paladins of Mallan and the Wild People of Lotao first appeared in Elpaxin."

The two people who were photographed with the big cat also appeared in this battle, but according to the description of the people on the Oxin Silver Fire, the performance of the Papalar man was mediocre.

As for the other elemental user, he is quite good.

"Luo Yu," Lair quickly found out the other party's identity, "a former member of the Oak Knights youth training team."

In fact, he also found out that Ji Ta was also a former member of the Oak Knights youth training team.

The members of the two youth training groups surprised him a little. He was still very familiar with the operation of large guilds. Members of such youth training groups were generally direct descendants and would not be easily allowed to leave the guild.

However, he did know that the Oak Knights had some dealings with Fang Plover before they were disbanded. Although it was not made public, he thought he had some relationship with these two people.

The information didn't mention the little girl's occupation, but he knew that there was a naturalist in the other party's team, so she must be this one.

In this battle, the naturalist lady did not participate in the battle. He couldn't help but frown. It seemed that the people on the Aoxin Silver Fire did not know that the other party had not exerted its full strength.

According to the descriptions of the people on board the Oxin Silver Fire, there was also a mage with "double cultivation of magic and martial arts", and a maid lady with a huge arm armor who had terrifying combat capabilities.

The opponent should also have a very outstanding Nightingale, who has been suppressing their gunners team and even assassinated an elemental user, but he has never shown his face from beginning to end.

And except for the magician who was very average on the wanted notice, Lair could not find the remaining two people on the wanted notice.

In the end, everyone on board the Oxin Silver Fire, including the always cautious captain Elain de Lavelle, all agreed that there was something strange about the other party's ship.

"Their boats are extremely flexible. I have been living on the open sea for decades, and I have never seen anyone able to drive a boat like that."

"After the battle was inevitable, I also tried to let the sailors fire, but they could always enter our blind spot at an incredible angle. I had never encountered such a thing...especially when the two ships were close to each other.

When we are so close..."

These were the original words of Elam de Lavelle at the time.

Of course, Lair was not completely trustworthy.

He learned that the Seven Seas Traveler had unexpectedly damaged the foremast and at least four sails of the Oxin Silverfire in the first round of attacks. Therefore, from the very beginning, the Oxin Silverfire was based on the premise of losing mobility.

The captain was fighting with the other party, and the captain probably said this just to shirk responsibility.

However, the maneuverability of the Seven Seas Traveler still left an impression on him. He did not forget that they had encountered each other once in Oronze Port. Although he did not know that the other party was the target on the wanted order at that time, at that time

The opponent's boating skills are indeed superb.

"Something."

This is Lair's final conclusion.

"Those guys said it nicely. The other party actually invaded the lower level of the Aoxin Silver Fire and destroyed their resurrection point." People who came back from investigations in other places also brought back their own conclusions. "Their president is not on the ship."

, probably also for this reason.”

"Are these guys on the Aoxin Silver Fire so weak? I heard they brought sixty or seventy people with them?" someone couldn't help but ask.

"Half of them are sailors, and there are thirty combat-effective people. That's pretty good." Lair returned to his ship, glanced at the miserable condition of the Auxin Silver Fire from a distance, and asked, "Speaking of which, we are

The first one to arrive?"

Everyone else shook their heads: "The first ones to arrive were the Long Beach and the Gray Whale. They have already chased in the direction of the Great Rift Valley."

"The other party fled into the Great Rift Valley?"

"Absolutely, if the people on the Long Beach and the Gray Whale are not mistaken."

"It's really strange. The opponent's level is not bad. Where did these people come from?"

People couldn't help but discuss a few words. Although they had issues with the people of the Seven Seas Brigade, this did not prevent them from objectively evaluating the strength of Fang Plover and his party.

In recent years, almost all outstanding selectors have come from the youth training camps of major guilds. It has been many years since there has been such a powerful guy among the free selectors.

It's not that there are no cases, but there are very few cases where at least the majority of people in a group are at this level.

"Could they be members of the military? .s? Or elites?"

Lair shook his head, "The youth training camp of the Oak Knights, or somewhere else." He actually didn't know much about the other party and his team. Apart from knowing some of the other party's deeds, he knew very little about the members of his team.

.

It's not just him, in fact the whole outside world is like this.

"But no matter what they do, this is a battle in the air and on the sea," Lair replied at this time. He had no intention of competing with these people. "Tell the people on the Long Beach and the Gray Whale,

Ask them to try not to get into one-on-one situations with each other and engage in close combat with each other."

"Is that necessary, Big L? No matter how powerful they are, how powerful can they be? It may also be that the people on the Aoxin Silver Fire are too weak."

After all, they had a conflict at the port. The descendants of Flor still remembered it, and it was inevitable that they would be a little dissatisfied.

But Lair shook his head and was about to speak again, and at this moment, a sailor hurried over and whispered something to him.

His expression changed, he raised his head and said to everyone:

"The Long Beach is gone."

"Wait a minute, what do you mean it's gone?"

"It's gone, it's gone," Lair replied: "The Long Beach caught up with the opponent in the Great Rift Valley and was sunk in the battle with the opponent."

Everyone was shocked, and the boat couldn't help but fall silent for a while.



Fang Plover watched from a distance as the Changdi No. was falling into the empty gorge with blazing flames.

He knows very well how difficult it is to create a sailboat, especially for those who are not from a large guild. It is often the hard work and efforts of countless people.

And this is different from the death of the Chosen One. Due to the existence of Starlight, the Chosen One often has many opportunities to resurrect from the dead in Aitaria.

But for a guild, once the sailboat sinks, years or even more than ten years of hard work are often wasted.

Therefore, in the battle above Kukai, as long as there is no feud between the chosen ones and the chosen ones, they will usually not easily sink each other's sailboats.

Injuring it to make it incapacitated, or seizing the opponent's sailboat through a boarding battle, and then letting the other party redeem it with a ransom. This is also a move between the Chosen and the Chosen to prevent a deadly feud from easily forming.

This is what they did to deal with the Aoxin Silver Fire before——

That battle seemed to have beaten the opponent out of their fighting spirit, and in the end the remaining people on the ship even had to raise their flags to surrender, but in fact it was not as easy as imagined.

At that time, I just relied on the opponent's carelessness and used unexpected methods to greatly weaken the opponent's effective strength when the opponent joined the gang to fight. Speaking of which, although there were sixty or seventy members on the Auxin Silver Fire, among them were sailors and life occupations.

, only half of the combat personnel can participate in the battle.

Even though there are only a dozen or so people on the Seven Seas Traveler, most of them are serious combat job selectors, not to mention him as a combat craftsman.

In the case of more than a dozen against thirty, plus ten dragon hunters, the actual strength comparison between the two sides is not as big as imagined.

Especially when the opponent jumped gangs twice and lost two teams of melee professionals. Within the fifteen minutes of these people's resurrection time, he actually ordered Miss Tata to control the Seven Seas Traveler and crash into them.

At that time, the situation on the battlefield had actually been rewritten.

Then the big cat man killed the opponent's leader with the help of his dragon hunters. After that, the opponent never organized any effective counterattack.

He then used more than a dozen efreets to blow off the opponent's tail fin, causing the Oxin Silverfire to lose its maneuverability. Then the Seven Seas Traveler could freely look for angles and opportunities to shoot.

After first clearing the upper deck of the Oxin Silver Fire, they then knocked out the opponent's artillery deck, leaving the opponent without any minions to resist.

Then they landed the people on the ship and then entered the other party's lower cabin to capture the other party's resurrection point. The whole process actually only took less than forty minutes.

The opponent only performed one round of resurrection, but was suppressed by the firepower of the Seven Seas Traveler and the Ten Dragon Hunters and was unable to reach the upper deck at all.

After reaching the resurrection point and capturing it, the remaining people on the other side decisively chose to surrender in order to save the ship.

Fang Yu did not make things difficult for these people. After taking some supplies and valuables from the other party's ship, he let them leave.

Although the Aoxin Silver Fire lost its mobility, according to the other party, there were still many ships searching for them nearby, and they could have asked for help from others.

But the Long Beach is different.

Fang Plover stood on the side of the ship and watched the last flash of light in the canyon in the distance, watching the two-masted sailboat like theirs turn into a ball of flames and roll down.

Finally disappeared completely——

The people on that ship were much more cunning than those on the Oxin Silver Fire. They seemed to have learned the lessons of the former and no longer came up to engage in boarding battles with them.

The Long Beach is a gunboat equipped with eight cannons. Although it is not as good as the Oxin Silverfire, it is much sharper and sharper than the Seven Sea Traveler.

Moreover, Aitaria's magic technology has been updated for almost thirty years. The antique cannons taken from the pirate ships on the Seven Seas Traveler are no match for the rapid-fire cannons on the opponent's ship.

The two sides fired real fire, and the other side seemed intent on beating the Seven Seas Traveler to lose its mobility. After receiving several shells, Fang Plover couldn't help but get really angry.

He asked Miss Tata to get into those claustrophobic canyons, take advantage of the terrain, and then unexpectedly attack the opponent with efreeti. The original intention was to blow up the opponent's mast or sail and make the opponent lose mobility.

But they didn't expect that the people on the other side's ship were in a panic and ran into the cliff of the Kongxia Gorge in order to avoid the fire giant's attack.

Hence the previous scene.

Looking at the rolling and disappearing flames from a distance, he silently sighed in his heart - he couldn't imagine what it would be like if the Seven Seas Traveler were the defeated side today.

Could it be like this, burning with blazing flames and falling under Kukai?

Therefore, no matter what, they must be the victor in this potentially lengthy pursuit.

It must always be——

"Ed, the other wind elemental source that has been chasing us has just disappeared." At this time, Sylvide came over from behind, looked at him, and said softly.

Since that night a few days ago, in private, when the two of them were alone, she rarely addressed him as Captain.

"They got the news," Fang Yu turned around and replied: "The precedent of the Aoxin Silver Fire and the Changdi should be enough to deter these people from pursuing them alone. But this also means that next time we

When you see these people, it may not be a ship, but a fleet."

He paused for a moment before asking: "What are our losses?"

"Not optimistic."

The noble lady frowned in a rare way.
