"Storm Valkyrie Guards! Fire your bows! Sixty meters above friendly forces! Three consecutive rounds with precision! Release!"
Martha, the captain of the Valkyrie Guards, stepped on the side of the ship, raised her long bow and stretched it to full length. She let out a loud roar and instantly released the bow string.
Behind her, her comrades also shot arrows on their strings at the same time.
Immediately, large swarms of arrows formed a dense rain of arrows, screaming sharply as they plunged into the group of winged demons that were about to rush onto the ship.
The first winged demons were shot down from the air in groups as if they had automatically crashed into Amazon's arrow rain. They howled and screamed, rolled and fell onto the deck of the ship or fell directly into the sea water.
"It's Amazon! We're saved!"
Seeing this scene, the crew members on the ship immediately cheered and their spirits were lifted. Even some ordinary sailors bravely pulled out the scimitars at their waists.
"Don't underestimate the enemy! Watch out for fireballs! Paladins! Raise your shields!"
At this moment, Sothea, who was standing on the bow of the Belhain, suddenly roared and raised the shield in his left hand above his head, and a burst of golden light appeared on the shield.
Hearing her reminder, many Paladins immediately reacted. They immediately imitated the female Paladin, squatting down and raising their shields above their heads. At the same time, those who had learned the Holy Shield skill also activated the Holy Shield skill.
.
The next moment, a large number of fireballs with a sulfurous smell fell from the sky. It was like a meteor shower fell on the two ships. The flames spread everywhere and the thick smoke submerged everything inside.
The Amazon female warriors finally understood why there were so many scorch marks on the two ships, because these winged demons not only swooped down to attack, but also spit fireballs!
"Quickly put out the fire!"
"Ah!! Help me! I'm burning!"
"Mages! Frost Nova!"
"Druids! Those who have learned Polar Storm should also help put out the fire! Hurry!"
"Others! Stay in formation! Amazons and other mages, return the favor quickly!"
The two ships immediately became busy, but they had obviously been attacked by winged demons many times, so they were not busy at all.
Those who should protect should protect, those who should fight back should fight back, and those who should save people should save people. The melee professionals all hold shields in their hands to protect the long-range professionals who are shooting the winged demons. The ship is full of assassins.
Wander around and clean up the winged demons that landed on the legend.
All the wounded were temporarily dragged to the second-floor cabin. The second-floor cabin of the Bellhain was okay and there was no water in it, but the water in the second-floor cabin of the Dehain was already knee-high.
Taller.
But there is no way, soaking in the water is more wonderful than being caught by the winged demons and torn to pieces in the air or letting you free fall.
However, although the crew has become accustomed to the fireball strikes of the winged demons, the number of the winged demons coming this time was quite large, which resulted in continuous fireballs being bombarded from high altitudes, directly hitting the wooden deck of the ship or other objects.
on hull parts.
The professionals and crew can still hold on for a while, but the Dihain can't hold on for much longer!
The crack on the front side of its hull that tore through most of the front deck was getting bigger and bigger under the constant bombardment of the Winged Demons, and gray smoke began to rise from the edge of the crack.
An assassin had just killed a Winged Demon whose wing had been shot through. As soon as he turned around, he saw a raging fire on the front deck of the Dehain.
"I need ice mages here! Send at least three... No! Send at least four here!"
The assassin immediately shouted in horror, knowing very well what would happen to them if the fire continued to burn.
After receiving the assassin's alarm, five ice magicians immediately teleported directly to his location. When they saw the raging flames burning in front of them, they were not surprised and quickly began to put out the fire.
Light blue ice rings exploded from the feet of the mages, suppressing the fire bit by bit. Seeing that the fire was under control, the assassins slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
However, before he could finish breathing out, a terrifying scene suddenly happened in front of him.
The deck beneath the feet of the five ice mages who were extinguishing the fire suddenly exploded into a pillar of fire that shot up into the sky. The pillar of fire came so suddenly that the mages were not given any time to react.
The assassin was thrown five or six meters away by the violent shock and explosion shock wave. He watched helplessly as the five mages disappeared in the pillar of fire.
Also disappearing with the mages was the entire front deck of the Dehain.
The powder room exploded!
This sudden huge explosion not only stunned the crew of the Dehain, but also affected the Bellhain next to it.
"A violent explosion occurred on the front deck of the Dehain. It is estimated that the powder room storing the powder was ignited!"
An observer ran to Sothea, who was organizing defenses on the Belhain, and reported in a sad tone.
Damn it! Why at this time!
Sothea gritted her teeth and cursed in her heart.
Fire powder is an alchemical material extracted from a certain mineral. This material has strong explosive power. Just a little bit is enough to throw an iron ball weighing dozens of kilograms hundreds of meters away.
Based on this principle, human craftsmen invented the "iron cannon". This bulky weapon, as expected, can directly hit the enemy's head with a round iron ball weighing dozens of kilograms, any flesh and blood body or even an enemy.
Lower city walls cannot withstand the bombardment of such weapons.
Iron cannons were even moved to the walls of the Death Fortress in the second world to resist demon attacks.
But after specific use, people discovered that this weapon is quite effective for projections and even some clones, but for the devil itself, it is too funny.
The iron balls fired by the iron cannons simply cannot hit those powerful creatures. Even if they hit, the effect is not as good as that of a professional who stabs them with a sword.
So this weapon was eventually thrown back to the First World and used by various human kingdoms in city defense and fleets.
Lu Gaoyin's royal fleet's main ships are of course equipped with a large number of these iron cannons, but since the fleet was ambushed, these cannons have not been able to play any role, because the enemies all come from the air, and these cannons
The elevation angle is not enough, and it cannot hit those winged demons flying around.
And forget it was useless at all, now it actually had the opposite effect, blowing up the entire front deck of the Dehain.
This was a fatal blow to the already shaky ship. The Dihain began to take in water and sink rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye. Many of the wounded who had been transferred to the cabin during the Wing Demon bombing just now
There was no time to evacuate at this moment.
Their comrades could only watch helplessly as they were mercilessly submerged by the sea water, and before they even had time to mourn, they had to start thinking about their own way of survival.
As the ship began to sink rapidly, the captain of the Dehain had no choice but to abandon the ship. The crew cut the cables tied to the canoes on both sides of the ship and put this last hope of life into the water.
However, since there are only four lifeboats prepared on the entire ship, only half of the people at most can board the ship, and the remaining people can only stay on the Dehain and live and die with the ship.
.
"Hurry up and save people! We can't let them stay there waiting to die!"
Sothea roared at the captain, but the captain shook his head at him with a look of sorrow and anger.
"Lord Sothea, we can't go over! The Dehain is sinking. If we get close to it at this time, the whirlpool caused by the sinking of the ship will drag us in!
One of the rudders of the Belhain had already been damaged, and all the sails were burned out. It is still able to move forward only because the servants of the necromancers are working hard in the water-filled cabin below.
boating.
Our power is simply not enough, if we are sucked into the whirlpool, we will probably be dragged down too!"
