"Woo woo... Woo!!"
As soon as Captain Fux gave the order, the lookout immediately climbed to the watchtower on the mast and blew the horn loudly. Soon, the Black Raven began to decelerate. At the same time, the sailors pushed the magic cannons to the edge of the ship. The magic cannons were weapons that looked like cannons but used magic energy to fire cannons. Although their attack power and range were similar to that of cannons, they did not need gunpowder to ignite and only needed crystals to fire the cannons. Therefore, they had long replaced cannons as the self-defense weapon used by ordinary merchant ships and cargo ships in the Overworld.
After all, storms and huge waves were the biggest enemies of ships on the sea.
The shields that were originally hooked on both sides of the hull were pulled up by the sailors and stuck inward on the edge of the ship. Soon, the ordinary merchant ship became a moving fortress on the sea. Captain Fux strode to the rudder and raised the monocular in his hand to look at the other side of the sea. Then, Captain Fux's expression changed.
"Sh * t!"
"Looks like we're in trouble."
With the help of magic vision, Fangzheng could clearly see three shadows emerging from the other side of the sea. The one in the lead was a luxurious passenger ship. Just by looking at its bright appearance and shining logo, one could tell that the ship must belong to a noble of considerable reputation and status.
But it was a pity that the ship was no longer as majestic as it was before. Its hull was covered with pitch-black traces of explosions and blazing flames. The white sails were also riddled with holes, just like a spider web ravaged by a storm.
Behind that ship, the other two pirate ships were chasing it like hungry wolves. The speed of the three ships seemed to be about the same, but in contrast, the ship that was desperately escaping in front was obviously unable to hold on. Not only did it have to avoid the cannons behind it, but it also had to worry about something else.
That was magic.
Boom! Boom!
Boom! Fangzheng saw a series of fireballs being shot from one of the pirate ships with a black flag towards the target in front. Soon, the flashing magic light in front of the fireballs formed a barrier that blocked the bombardment of the fireballs. For a moment, countless flames burst out. Although they could not directly cause damage to the target in front, Fangzheng could clearly see that the tail of the ship had begun to smoke and catch fire, and its speed began to decline.
"Damn it, it's those damned devils!"
Seeing this scene, Fux's face showed a look of fear, while Fangzheng raised his eyebrows.
"You know them?"
"Of course, sir. As long as you make a living in this sea area, you will know the name of the 'Devil Sahn' Pirates. I heard that their leader is a wizard, and through a deal with hell, he and his subordinates have been transformed into some kind of evil and powerful existence. They can use the flames of hell at will, which is also everyone's nightmare."
Fux's expression became more and more nervous. He clenched the binoculars in his hand with an ashen face.
"I didn't expect it to be them.... Damn it, these guys are not easy to deal with....!"
"In other words, a battle is inevitable?"
"I'm afraid so."
Hearing Fangzheng's question, Fux sighed helplessly.
"They are the most ferocious bandits in this region of the sea. Rumor has it that almost no one can come back alive from them. I really didn't expect our luck to be so bad.... Sir, please take the ladies back to the cabin for shelter. It's not safe here."
"No, I don't think so."
But to Fux's surprise, Fangzheng shook his head and refused his proposal. He then looked at the girls not far away from him. Because they heard the sound of the horn, the girls who were originally in the cabin had come out and stood on the deck, watching the battle in the distance curiously. Even Culia, who was lying dead in her cabin as soon as she boarded the ship, was no exception. For the first time, the poor child learned that she suffered from an incurable disease called "seasickness."
At this time, the three ships were getting closer and closer to the Raven. Although Fux had ordered his ship to make way for them, judging from the condition of the ship, it was very likely that it would sink soon.
At the same time, the three pirate ships had naturally noticed the existence of the Black Raven, but the ship that escaped in front obviously couldn't do anything. The two pirate ships that followed did not hesitate to fire at the Black Raven. Although they failed to hit the Black Raven, their intention was obvious.
"Tiria."
"Yes, brother. What's the matter?"
Hearing Fangzheng's call, Tiria came to Fangzheng with a smile and held his arm coquettishly.
"Kill them. Don't break the seal."
"Okay, please leave it to me."
Hearing Fangzheng's order, Tiria smiled sweetly. Then, the sailors on the deck, Fux, and the others watched in surprise as the noble lady in a gorgeous pink dress quietly jumped up and stood on the top of the high mast like a nimble bird. Then, Tiria raised the umbrella in her hand and aimed at the pirate ship in front of her.
The next moment, a bright red beam of light cut through the air and shot straight at the pirate ship in front of her.
The energy beam condensed by the Power of Existence whistled through the air, and even the surrounding air and seawater involuntarily opened up a path in front of the strong impact. The sorcerer on the pirate ship was obviously not a fool. At the same time when Tiria attacked, a dark smoke suddenly appeared on the pirate ship. The smoke quickly intertwined and condensed into a hard and smooth mirror-like barrier in front of the pirate ship.
At the same time, Fangzheng also raised his right hand.
Mysterious magical power danced on his fingertips, took shape, and spread in an undetectable wave, entangling with the barrier on the opposite side. In the blink of an eye, the barrier quickly collapsed and disintegrated. At the same time, Fangzheng flicked his finger and a Dimensional Anchor flew out and enveloped the entire sea.
At the same time, the beam of light shot by Tiria whistled through the magic barrier that was on the verge of breaking and directly hit the pirate ship.
Boom!!
A bright red, dazzling cloud of flames erupted from the middle of the pirate ship and went straight into the sky. The violent explosion of the Power of Existence instantly caused the entire pirate ship to burst like a balloon. The raging power mercilessly turned everything that was caught in it into dust. Even the sea itself couldn't withstand the violent explosion and a huge hole appeared. The powerful explosive force caused a huge whirlpool to appear on the surface of the sea. It spun wildly and absorbed everything in the surroundings. In the blink of an eye, the wreckage of the pirate ship was completely submerged in the sea.
This sudden scene left everyone dumbfounded. Other than Fangzheng, Nimfu, and Hecate, everyone else widened their eyes in shock. They looked at Tiria, who was standing at the top of the mast, as well as the umbrella in her hand. The other pirate ship naturally wouldn't be foolish enough to continue advancing. It frantically tried to turn around and leave, but it had only turned halfway when another beam of light burst out from Tiria's umbrella and accurately hit the hull of the pirate ship. After a few moments, the pirate ship also fell into the fate of destruction like its companion.
"Very good."
Looking at this scene, Fangzheng nodded in satisfaction. Then, he glanced at Captain Fox, who stood there dumbfounded and motionless.
