As he got used to the paddles and improved his rowing skills, the speed of the boat gradually increased, and it was getting faster and faster. Once again, we couldn't help but express our gratitude towards the system's fatigue meter, which was practically non-existent. The three of us taking turns to rest was actually just a formality, none of us felt tired at all.
Gradually, the boat was no longer pushing away the waves. Instead, it seemed to be riding the wind and breaking the waves. Gu Fei nodded as he looked at the water splashing behind him. "Maybe we can really catch up to the System's ship."
The waterway in front of him was still a vast expanse. Although he couldn't see any large ships, he couldn't see any land either. This meant that the other players in the clouds were still drifting on the water.
"Who knows, we might even be able to surpass them and reach Linshui City before them." Gu Fei started to push his luck.
However, everyone liked to push their luck. Floating on the water was indeed very boring, not to mention that they had to row the boat themselves. That was something only children would be excited about.
Right at this moment, Boundless Mang Mang, who had just switched hands to rest, was stretching his body at the bow of the ship when he suddenly saw a shadow moving in the mist ahead. He immediately turned his head and said to the two people excitedly, "There seems to be something up ahead."
"What is it?" The two of them had been rowing the boat with all their might, but now they immediately stretched their heads out.
Everyone could see the blurry shadow.
"Hmm, it's so small. It doesn't look like it's on land." Xi Xiaotian was disappointed. With the ship's current speed, their desire to catch up with the big ship had faded. It was more important for them to get on land as soon as possible.
However, as they got closer, the blurry shadow became clearer and clearer. The three of them could even see its movements clearly. It was moving in the opposite direction of their boat. Then, the same shadows quietly appeared one after another in the mist, gradually moving and becoming clearer.
"It's a boat." The first shadow that was discovered was now completely clear. It was a small boat, just like the one that the three of them were on.
If the first shadow was a ship, then the other shadows were also ships. Standing at the bow of the ship, Mang Mang counted one, two, three, four, and five. So far, five ships had appeared, and they did not rule out the possibility that there would be more in the mist.
"What are they doing?" The three of them looked at the incoming ships curiously, already having a bad premonition in their hearts. Looking at the direction in which they were moving, it seemed like they were coming for them.
The ship was closing in. It was the same boat as the three of them, with four people on each boat. Of course, the other party didn't paddle with their hands. Instead, they installed the oars at the stern of the boat and had a person paddle it by hand. The other three were fully equipped and stood with bright eyes.
The first ship was also at the speed of breaking through the waves. It headed straight for the boat of the three of them. It did not slow down at all, nor did it seem to have any intention of turning.
The three of them wanted to evade, but unfortunately, the three of them were already very adept at rowing the boat in a straight line. However, controlling the turn and direction was still as sloppy as before. Not only did they fail to steer the boat away, they even turned around and sold the side to the other party.
Aside from the oarsman, the other three people had already crouched down, their hands gripping the edge of the boat tightly.
How could Gu Fei and the other two suspect what the other party was planning to do? No one could predict what would happen after this collision. If it was just a violent shake, they might be able to hold on tightly and be safe. However, looking at the momentum of the other party, if the boat were to capsize or be damaged, it would be too much trouble.
What's worse, even if Gu Fei flew onto the boat and killed those people in the blink of an eye, the collision was still unavoidable, because no one could stop the inertia from happening.
At this moment, there was no time to waste. Gu Fei's hand reached into his pocket.
He pulled out a coil of rope.
Gu Fei had a lot of coiled ropes in his pocket, but this one was a little different. There was a hook tied to the end of the rope. Just like his pitchfork, this iron hook was also a quest item that Gu Fei had obtained after completing a certain quest. Thus, it was made into a simple flying hook. This was also a type of ancient weapon with a long history. Most people might think that this was a favorite weapon of a gentleman, but in fact, the main use of this thing was to defend a city during a war.
Today, of course, this thing could no longer be used for war, but in the martial arts system, it could still be used as a flexible weapon.
At this moment, Gu Fei grabbed the coil of rope and threw it out, accurately hooking it onto the edge of the other boat.
"Quick!" Gu Fei hurriedly called out to the two girls. The two girls reacted and reached out to grab the end of the rope. The three of them stepped on the planks of the boat and pulled together. The hooked boat swayed and lost its direction, but the three people's boat borrowed the force of the pull to quickly move forward. At this time, it was too late for the oncoming boat to change direction. It swept past the back of Gu Fei's boat, and the two boats kept colliding with each other, shaking and shaking.
"Hold on tight!" Gu Fei called out to the two girls.
The two girls didn't need him to remind them and reached out to grab the edge of the boat. On the other hand, Gu Fei's body swayed left and right under the shaking of the boat, but he didn't fall.
"How did you do it?" The two girls were very surprised.
"Lower body skill." Gu Fei smiled. To say something like "Thousand Kilogram Drop" was a bit too unrealistic. The so-called lower body mainly referred to the stability and balance of the lower limbs when supporting the body. The strength of the lower limbs was indeed very important, but it mainly came into play when the two sides were wrestling. For example, in a basketball court, when defending the inner court, lower limb strength was very important. Gu Fei was currently stabilizing his body in the shaking of the boat, so even though his strength wasn't very high, it was enough to deal with it.
After dodging the collision with the other boat, the boat slowly drifted towards the boat that Gu Fei had hooked. There was no need to worry about the collision between the two, because even if they did, the force wouldn't be too great. At this time, Gu Fei raised his sword and threw a Flaming Wheel from the Sky towards the boat.
The four people on the boat immediately stood together, and one of them raised his shield above his head. Gu Fei's Flaming Wheel was very slow, and the other side even waited for a while before the Flaming Wheel landed. Evidently, the Warrior with the shield was also shocked by the damage of Gu Fei's spell, but no matter what, the four of them survived. One of the Priests immediately started to cast a healing spell.
Seeing that this wasn't working, Gu Fei cast a Flaming Tree Thousand Layers Flames. It was too difficult to place a shield on the boat and then stand on it. Who would have thought that the other side wouldn't do that, and the four of them jumped into the water without hesitation.
The Flaming Tree Thousand Layers Flames continued to burn, but the effect on the surface of the water was weakened. It was supposed to burn for 5 seconds, but after 2-3 seconds, it was extinguished. On the other hand, the boat was burning fiercely, but after 5 seconds, it returned to its original state. The four of them stuck their heads out of the water, grabbing onto the side of the boat and climbed up, continuing to form a group of four. The Warrior raised his shield high, and the Priest continuously healed them, their expressions calm.
Apart from these two classes, the other two were an Archer and a Mage, both of which were long-range attackers. However, Gu Fei made the first move, causing them to be very passive. They had to pose, jump into the water, and climb up the boat. At this moment, the body of the boat was shaking violently, and it was not easy for them to stand still, let alone attack accurately.
The opponent's Archer grabbed onto the side of the boat with one hand, so he definitely couldn't shoot an arrow with one hand. The Mage waved his staff and cast an Ice Tornado, but as the boat shook, his body also shook. Although the hand holding the staff didn't want to shake, it was a pity that his hand was also a part of his body. As he swayed left and right, the Ice Tornado twisted into an S shape, and it was even shaking. The Mage saw that this was too embarrassing, and hurriedly retracted his magic, and the Ice Tornado disappeared just like that.
Gu Fei scanned the current situation. The boat in front of him was shaking, and the boat that brushed past the back of the boat didn't stop because of the collision between the two boats. The people on the boat steadied themselves, and at the same time, turned the boat around. Otherwise, it would directly sail to the dock where Gu Fei and the others had boarded.
There were still three other boats, and at this moment, they were aggressively charging towards Gu Fei's boat. The situation was dangerous, and there was no time to think. Gu Fei swung his sword, and with a flash of lightning, an electric wall was erected on the water surface, and spanned across the bows of the three boats.
The power of this fire magic seemed to be weakened on water, but the electric magic was not affected. Instead, when the water surface rippled, water droplets repeatedly splashed onto the electric wall, causing electricity to splatter everywhere and crackle loudly. This increased the power of the scene and sound effects. The players on the three boats didn't know what this thing was, but looking at the aura, they really didn't dare to collide with it. However, at this moment, the electric wall wouldn't move, but the boats were moving. The people on the boats were equivalent to carrying them and crashing into the electric wall.
This small, broken boat didn't have the brakes that could stop at will. The players at the back of the boat were already desperately rowing in the opposite direction. It was a pity that they had rushed too fiercely before, and now it was time to pay the price. Rowing in the opposite direction caused the speed of the boat to decrease, but it still continued to move forward. The players on the boats kept retreating. Finally, the four players on the first boat gathered at the back of the boat, and the boat lost its balance. In an instant, it flipped upside down, and the four players fell into the water.
When the players on the other two boats saw this, they didn't dare to retreat too much. The boat couldn't stop, and the electric wall was right in front of them. If they didn't want to collide with it, what else could they do? They had to jump into the water!
Splash, splash, splash. The eight players jumped into the water one after another, and watched as their boats swam away just like that. A few of them swam to chase after the boat, but the electric wall was still in front of them, and they had to go around it. Needless to say, it was very annoying.
Just one electric wall was able to achieve such results, and it was really worthy of celebration. Although Gu Fei's mana had been used up, there was still a vast expanse of the field. With a wave of his staff, he cast Mana Sacrifice towards Gu Fei. Gu Fei pointed and teleported. With a whoosh, he flew less than five meters in front of the swaying boat.
"Dual Flame Flash, flash!!!" Gu Fei slashed out with his sword. At such a crucial moment, Gu Fei definitely didn't care whether his PK value was 28, 29, or 30.
