Seeing that the overwhelming advantage turned into a dog fight in the water, the girl in the cloud couldn't help but shake her head, feeling that the captain must have experienced very few water battles to make such a mistake.
This is like an aircraft carrier going out without a frigate. If a submarine approaches, it will be difficult to deal with it.
The big ships threw rat weapons at each other, and the giant crossbows and artillery on the ship could not be used, and the sporadic arrow fire was not enough to kill the water thieves hiding under the water and on the bottom of the ship. At this moment, everyone was at a loss. Some officers even thought
I wonder if the soldiers should also jump into the water and fight with the water thieves. Otherwise, as time goes by, those water thieves will sooner or later penetrate the bottom of the boat.
Fortunately, some of the local warlocks and practitioners who were traveling with him had lived by the water for a long time and had some experience in water warfare. At their suggestion, the captain gathered the warlocks on the ship to cast spells. Undercurrents formed under the water.
It continues to expand, forming whirlpools one after another, dragging enemies into the water to the bottom, and the ship's own weight is there, even if it deflects, it will not sink into the water.
This time the siege was solved, many water thieves began to swim hard in the river in order to escape the scope of the whirlpool, and in this way they had to come out of the water and be shot by arrows. For a while, a lot of blood and flowers appeared in the water.
Corpse.
It seemed that the situation was about to reverse, but one of the large ships made a creaking sound in the whirlpool, and there were also shouts of surprise from above.
"The bottom of the boat is leaking. I can't hold it anymore. Run away~"
The river roared into the cabin, filled with mud and sand, and there were sounds of running everywhere. The soldiers and boatmen on the boat jumped off the boat one after another in order to get away from the sinking ship.
In order to avoid involving their own people in the whirlpool, the warlocks who had previously cast spells had to reduce their power, and this also caused many water thieves to take a breather.
Just when everyone was paying attention to this messy battle, a small boat quietly sailed out in the chaos and approached the big ship. Then with a loud noise, the small boat exploded, spilling a large amount of kerosene, blue and red.
The flames quickly spread across the water, burning boats of all sizes on the river, as well as members of both parties who fell into the water.
"Fuck you, Li Liangcheng, you are such a beast, you actually use this against your brother."
Before the officers and soldiers on the boat could figure it out, the shouts and curses of water thieves came from the river. It seemed that someone was risking the life and death of his teammates in the water in order to resist the suppression of the fleet.
In the face of such scolding, a treacherous and fierce man walked out of the reeds full of ashes and lint. He held a short harpoon in one hand and a shield in the other. He was followed by about sixty people.
They are masters among water thieves. These people seem to be at Sequence 2 or above. They wear various types of clothing and armor, as if they were obtained from various sources and then pieced together. Some only have a circle of armor on their waists.
Some wear armor on one shoulder, and others wear a helmet.
Although it looks shabby, it is still better than the people who went into the water before. After all, it can protect the loss to some extent.
Seven of the ten large ships in Qingjizhou are now soaked in the sea of fire. Although they have not sunk for a while, time has become urgent. With such a huge advantage to deal with such water bandits, it is easy to say that they can win, but in ordinary times
If one or two large ships were lost, the captain's merits would not be worth his weight, and it would be difficult for him to be promoted in the future.
At this time, he finally couldn't sit still anymore.
This man put on his black armor and carried a single-moon halberd. He jumped up from the bow of the boat, rose and landed several times in the air, and used the power of the big boat on the river to attack the leader of the thieves who was among the ashes of the reeds.
It seems that they don't expect to use their soldiers to solve the problem.
The adjutants on the ship directed the ship to move backwards, away from the sea of fire in this area of water, and then asked the warlocks on the ship to cast spells to roll up water waves as much as possible to boost the ship and cool the deck on the side of the ship.
On the shore, the captain fell from the sky, carrying a fierce wave of air, raised the single-month halberd in his hand high, and then slashed it down.
Although the water bandits on the shore saw him approaching suddenly and were on guard, many people still failed to react in a short period of time and were directly torn apart by the crescent blade that was swung down, and their blood was spilled on the spot.
They were just a group of bandits who robbed by the water. Naturally, they didn't have much fighting spirit and courage. Seeing such a terrifying general, many of the previously proud and arrogant water bandits were so frightened that their legs weakened and they ran away crying.
The expression of the water bandit leader named Li Liangcheng remained unchanged, with a hint of excitement.
"Normally you are a high-ranking captain, but now you are leaving the army alone and jumping into the reeds to fight me. Are you brave and invincible, sir, or do you look down on me, a man who licks blood from his knife edge?"
He smiled ferociously, then took the shield and harpoon, and strode forward. As he walked, the black hair and fat on his chest rippled, and the surging brute force hit him head-on, like an ancient evil, which made him
People are shocked, this person also has the strength of the fifth level of Xuanshui, and is not weaker than the captain.
Facing this arrogant leader of thieves, the captain remained silent. After landing, he held the halberd in his hands and his body sank slightly. A calm aura like a mountain elephant burst out. It was not as unbearable as when he was commanding on the water before.
appearance.
It seems that this captain was promoted based on his merits in land warfare in the past, but this time he just encountered an area that he was not good at.
The two of them approached quickly, but when they were about to collide, the leader of the thieves suddenly stamped his foot and stopped, then stepped forward with a shield in one hand to block him.
The sharp halberd hit the air and swung into a crescent arc. It crashed down in an instant. The iron shield cracked and the fragments flew. Some even made small cuts on Li Liangcheng's arm. But what the water bandit was waiting for was
At this moment, taking advantage of the opponent's shield breaking, he took the opponent's pole handle with his left hand and held it with one hand, while the other hand that originally held the harpoon took out the white powder he had prepared in his arms and sprinkled it on the opponent.
Because the enemy had grabbed the handle of the halberd, the captain subconsciously tightened his grip to prevent someone from taking away the weapon. He could only close his eyes in response to the sudden dusting of powder.
But in a duel between high-level extraordinary beings, the outcome is often decided in such a short moment, because there was foreign powder around his eyes, and stimulated by a sharp pain, the captain's vision blurred, and his mind was also in chaos. His previous courage
It also dissipated and became dwarfed.
"Haha, you, Captain, are still inexperienced. Let me, Mr. Li, teach you a lesson." Li Liangcheng is a man of brute strength. The reason why he doesn't use axes and hammers is because he found that such weapons are not enough.
Flexible, easy to drag yourself down.
As a water bandit, he doesn't pay much attention to killing the enemy and making meritorious deeds. Naturally, how to protect himself is more important. He is more comfortable with a shield and harpoon, and he can use various means to instigate others if nothing happens.
"Brothers, come on, get on the hook net and capture this captain, hehe~"
After a fight, due to an eye injury, the captain was at a disadvantage in the battle. His body was stained, and his originally neat armor became torn, with blood, grass clippings and dirt everywhere.
Seeing this, seeing that the powerful Captain no longer had any majestic power, the water bandits who had been scattered ran back again, laughing and taunting and insulting each other, making the already unsustainable Captain restless.
He waved the halberd in his hand again, and the overflowing blade light cut open several water bandits who were talking loudly in the distance. Taking advantage of the brief moment when the other party was silent and afraid, he stepped back and prepared to leave. But he already knew what he was thinking.
How could Li Liangcheng let this big fish go? He changed from his previous conservative fighting style, got closer, and stuck the opponent's halberd with a harpoon to prevent the opponent from easily getting away.
At this time, some water bandits who were watching from behind also brought fishing nets full of hooks and approached carefully step by step.
Several large ships in the distance have now escaped from the sea of fire. Only then did the soldiers and officers on board see the commander who was already at leeward and in danger. However, they did not have wings. At this time, they could only stay in place and fetch them in a short time.
There is no good way.
The captain twisted his halberd and kicked Li Liangcheng away. When the fishing net fell, he swung it quickly and tore a few holes in the large net in the air. However, the remaining part still fell on him, and there was more than one net on the opposite side.
, Living by the water, there are always a lot of these things. Layers of fishing nets were covered with them. The already weak captain wanted to struggle, but was pressed to the ground by Li Liangcheng who rushed forward, and his hands were tightly clasped.
The halberd and shoulders prevented him from getting up.
Then, a kind of water bandits also surged up with shouts, picked up harpoons and swords and struck.
Seeing that the captain was about to die here, there was a rapid sound of breaking through the air from the river, and green light shot out, piercing through the water bandits, making all kinds of crying and wailing sounds.
"Who is it!" Li Liangcheng stood up, grabbed a shield from the water bandit on the side, and then took the short harpoon in his hand to deal with it vigilantly.
High in the sky, another burst of green light rained down, but it was blocked by Li Liangcheng's shield. A tiny silver needle suddenly appeared on the shield, and there was still light green energy (magic power) that had not been dissipated.
At this time, there was no need for Li Liangcheng to search. A quiet long sword deflected across the sky and followed the rapidly advancing figure towards the only standing figure on the ground.
The light of the sword was as bright as a clear shadow. At the moment of the battle, Li Liang was shocked to realize that he was no match. Although the opponent was also at the fifth level of strength, his swordsmanship and body skills were far beyond what he could match. He had fought against him several times.
This time, he didn't even see the other person's face clearly, he could only see the edges of the bright blue clothes.
There was another clash of weapons, and the long sword passed through the gap of the harpoon like a snake, and went straight to Li Liangcheng's neck. The opponent was so horrified that he dropped the weapon, raised his head and retreated.
After barely dodging the sword, Li Liangcheng had a bloodstain on his cheek, but the opponent did not chase him. With a wave of his backhand, another green light flashed past, and silver needles pierced the opponent's body everywhere, making this fierce
The cunning leader of the water bandits slowly fell down with his eyes open and died.
After killing the water bandit leader, the remaining water bandits quietly retreated and fled in fear. This man did not chase after seeing this, but took a few steps forward. The sword flashed and tore open the fishing net on the ground, revealing
The weak and wheezing captain.
He took out a small bottle from his arms, poured some water, and moistened the other person's eyes. The captain felt cool and comfortable, and the original pain disappeared. His eyes became clearer, and he helped the captain sit up.
, the man in green shirt took out a few more pills and handed them to him to eat, allowing him to recover slowly.
After doing all this, he stood up again, holding the sword, and glanced around, then glanced at the distant sky, glanced slightly doubtfully, and then continued to look around and stood still.
"Thank you for your help. I don't know the name of my benefactor." After the captain recovered, he stood up with clasped fists.
"My name is Zhu Xiaoyi, Qingluyuan's needle envoy. I have been entrusted by my fellow disciples to come here this time. If you want to thank me, please go to him."
"It's over now, I'm going." After saying that, he jumped up, walked on the waves, and disappeared in the distance of the river in a blink of an eye.
Watching the fifth-level faction master disappear into the river, the captain once again raised his hands and saluted, then turned around and looked at the large ships that were approaching again not far away.
"This time, I almost capsized." He felt very frightened. If it hadn't been for the help of the master just now, he might have died here.
Seeing the captain below re-counting personnel and dealing with various post-war matters, Lorraine Hill gradually withdrew his gaze and turned to leave the bamboo forest where his figure was hidden.
The reason why she didn't take action just now was because she noticed that someone else was approaching quickly, but she didn't expect that the other party would deal with it so neatly.
It seems that the strength of 'Qingluyuan' is not low, only one needle guide is so powerful.
Dusk, Qingjizhou Prefecture.
There were still bright lamps burning in the court hall, and a man in official uniform was still reading the records of the county under the lamp. Occasionally, he would write down something on the blank book beside him. Behind him, there were
There are many similar books piled up, and I have been doing this kind of work for a long time.
As the night grew darker, a breeze blew in and the candlelight swayed, causing the man to raise his head.
"Senior brother is back, what's the outcome?" Now there was a swordsman in blue shirt standing in the empty space in front of him.
It wasn't until the state shepherd spoke that the sergeant on duty outside the court was alarmed and prepared to come in and guard.
"No problem, please step aside first. This is my fellow disciple."
"Yes, sir." These powerful sergeants slowly retreated.
"The matter has been settled." The swordsman in blue shirt spoke concisely.
"That's good." The state shepherd breathed a sigh of relief.
"Although the captain is brave, he lacks strategy. You will have to remind him more in the future." After standing quietly for a while, the blue-shirted swordsman spoke to comment.
"There are not many people in my sect who are officials in the court. You are the one with the highest rank. If you have any difficulties in the future, you can tell them more to the sect."
"These are mostly my personal matters, so why bother bothering the teachers within the sect too much?" The state pastor shook his head.
"This is not the same as before. Some things are changing drastically. It's hard to tell you clearly now, but you just need to remember that you must work hard to maintain your status as a state pastor and your control over Qingqizhou."
"In the future, we will send digital guides to help you. You don't have to worry about lack of manpower, and you don't have to worry about money and food issues. We will help you solve these problems."
"This..." Hearing this, the state pastor was also slightly shocked, feeling that there was a lot of hidden secrets behind this.
If in the past, such strong interference in the official affairs of the DPRK and China, even a large sect spanning several continents would be suppressed and suspected by the dynasty, but now the sect is taking the initiative to do these things.
"I... got it." He bowed his head deeply and agreed. The pen in his hand had been resting on the paper for a long time, and a large black ink stain was formed, slowly spreading along the fibers of the paper.
