Although on the surface, the fog in the Fog Sea was similar to the white fog released by the natural world or the "Fog Silver Lamp", only when one was in the middle of it would they be able to feel the difference.
Dark, cold, dead, and emitting malice …
The most intuitive feeling was that the white fog seemed to distort space and time, giving people a strange sense of confusion that made them unable to distinguish between day, night, north, south, ancient, or modern.
It would not be strange even if in the next moment, a sailing ship from hundreds of years ago sailed out of the fog, and a group of ancient people stood on the deck and greeted them.
Many pirates who were qualified to enter Shipwreck Bay had enough experience. They had already lit the signal lights prepared in advance on the ship, gathered all the ships together, and formed a defensive formation.
However.
Even if these pirates had the qualifications to enter Shipwreck Bay, they still needed a special guide to safely enter and exit the Fog Sea. If they deviated from the established route, in this dangerous sea area, their ending would not be any better than the pursuers who randomly trespassed.
Therefore, although the Fog Sea was considered half of the pirates' home ground, there were too many unknowns and mysteries hidden in it that even they did not know.
After the sudden accident, in the fog with extremely low visibility, no one dared to run around. After all, [Direction Confusion] was only the most basic concoction in the Fog Sea.
Moreover, they clearly understood that since the Fog Sea itself had reacted, it was obviously impossible for it to simply trap them here. There would definitely be follow-up actions.
Although there was a certain commotion in many small forces, most people were still calm. Even if monsters came out, the hundreds of ships and tens of thousands of combatants were enough to make people feel at ease.
On the surface, there were two Pirate Kings in the team. With such a powerful force, it was not impossible to conquer a small country.
"Sir! Thank you for the grace of my Lord, the God of Black Wings. I can still sense the location of Shipwreck Bay here. Although [Fog Vision] is suppressed by an unknown force, it should not be a problem if we are careful. "
On the Chiseltooth, which was decorated with the teeth of many giant creatures, a young man wearing the official uniform of Shipwreck Bay said respectfully to Bradley beside him.
If there were pirates from other forces here, they would find it hard to believe that this young man was actually a guide from Shipwreck Bay!
Their duty was to lead the pirate ships to Shipwreck Bay safely through the Fog Sea.
This position shouldn't belong to any private pirate group. Instead, it should be tied to the facilities of Shipwreck Bay to serve all pirates.
Now, it seemed that the so-called ban was more like a piece of paper. At the very least, it had no effect on Bradley. Using public resources for private purposes was just a small matter to some people.
"Haha, Mr. Wells, well done. Nick, Marcus, the two of you are responsible for protecting Mr. Wells throughout the process. Do you understand? "
To be able to advance to Tier 3 and sit firmly on the throne of Pirate King, although Bradley was an opportunist, he did not lack the necessary caution. As long as they had this guide, they wouldn't have to worry about the problem of retreating, and they could calmly deal with the following situations.
"Yes, sir."
Hearing this, the two Second Order Knights behind him bowed in an almost flattering manner and accepted the order.
These two were defectors from Malonggang when it was destroyed, and they were also privateers from the Anti-Shilius Alliance. Obviously, as long as they bowed once, there would be a second time, a third time, and countless times. Their bones would only become softer and softer.
On the surface, privateers didn't look much different from pirates, but to them, there was a taboo that absolutely could not be violated, and that was attacking the ships of their own country and allies. If they were caught, they would immediately be stripped of their privateering license and be treated as pirates!
At this moment.
Either by violating the taboo or by killing their former companions … The defectors in Malonggang who were subdued by Bradley, after offering him all kinds of proof of allegiance, were even more useful than the original direct subordinates of the "Oathbreaker."
And … they did things without a bottom line!
Because now, the ones who didn't want Bradley to lose power the most were this group of people. Without the protection of the Pirate King, they would be the first to be dealt with.
For this operation, Bradley had unreservedly put everything on the line, mobilizing all of his forces.
At the same time, the dragon knights had also gathered together.
"The situation isn't that bad yet."
Elvin had previously tested that the mental network's signal was unable to communicate with the outside world, but it was still relatively smooth inside the fog. Even the few seagulls that he suspected to have lost contact with had been reestablished.
With the Morning Star in the lead, six fifth-grade patrol ships or pirate ships of the same level, and fifteen Brigantine schooners formed two columns that could see and respond to each other.
While avoiding the battle line from being too long, they could also cover each other.
In the fleet, there were two Transcendents, three Wizards, six Knights, and 34 Men in Skins. The total number of pirates exceeded 3,000.
If others didn't panic, they didn't panic either.
"As expected, the so-called treasure and the soaring treasure light aren't coincidences. It looks like we won't be able to be the oriole. Inform all captains that they are not to leave the team without orders. Report any abnormalities in the surroundings immediately. "
"Yes, Captain."
It had only been ten minutes since they entered the fog. Under the guidance of the mental network, the fleet had just regrouped.
Du — du —
In the depths of the fog, a sound of a horn with great penetrating power suddenly rang out, entering the ears of all the sailors who were drifting in this sea region. It also instantly made them feel invigorated.
"This seems to be the foghorn sound that the lighthouse at a normal port uses as a warning. It indicates that there's land ahead to avoid hitting the reefs. "
First Mate Boris frowned. No sailor was unfamiliar with this sound, but it was very strange for it to appear here.
The moment his words left his mouth …
Many wooden signal buoys with gas lamps hanging from them suddenly floated up from the seawater before them. The gas lamps emitted a blurry yellow glow, penetrating through the fog and extending toward the direction where the foghorn sound came from.
Elvin threw a glance toward the fog behind him. A seagull had been flying for over ten minutes under his orders, but it was still unable to fly out of the fog region.
He then gave the order.
"It's clear that the owner of this place doesn't wish for us to leave. Let's go. We'll form a double column behind the Morning Star and see what kind of tricks they're up to. "
The sailors who had been swept into the fog had already realized that someone was behind this treasure-hunting operation.
While the ship advanced with the buoys, their weapons were unsheathed, and their guns and cannons were loaded. Everyone was prepared for battle. It could be said that the fiercest group of people in the entire New World were gathered here. A small scene was unable to scare them.
The dragon cavalry followed the navigation buoys' guidance and advanced for a total of three hours amidst the stifling fog.
However, unlike how they were on guard, other than the occasional foghorn sound that didn't change in intensity, no monsters or abnormalities appeared.
However, with the help of his sharp senses and 'data analyzing vision', Elvin quickly discovered that the direction and speed of the water currents under the ship were constantly adjusting. After changing so many times, even he couldn't tell where he was and how far he was from when he first entered the Fog Sea.
At this moment, there were finally new changes in front of them.
The gloomy and cold fog around them gradually thinned out. In the end, it was as if an extremely huge cave had been dug out from the thick fog. A small island that was about five to six square kilometers appeared in the center of this cave.
Through a monocular.
The island was surrounded by sandbars and reefs that emerged from the water. Although the island was covered in lush trees, the dense grayish-white stone buildings could be easily seen through the cover of the vegetation.
Temples, pyramids, palaces, large residences …
There was no doubt that this was the style of the Kumar Empire.
However, the other scene on the island caused everyone's breathing to quicken.
Gold! Gemstones!
All kinds of sacrificial and living utensils, mainly made of gold and gemstones, covered half of the island like gravel. Even the sandbars around the island that were half-submerged in the water were everywhere.
It even gave people the illusion that the gold and gemstones were the main body of the island, and the earth and stones were just embellishments.
Even though the light was dim, the noble colors were still dazzling and resplendent!
Whoosh whoosh whoosh …
Around the island, one ship after another sailed out of the thick fog. Without exception, they instantly stopped, the weapons in their hands drooping down involuntarily.
"Is this all real?"
At this moment, no one could shift their eyes away from the island. Even the wealthy Elvin and Olivia were no exception.
Even if a person had so many zeros in their bank account that they could not count them, it was still very hard for them to be immune to the powerful impact of having 100 million in cash piled up into a wall.
However, in the atmosphere that was so quiet that only heavy panting could be heard …
On the 'Morning Star', Boris suddenly felt that his side was empty. He turned his head and saw that Gary, who had been standing next to him, had disappeared without a trace.
His heart skipped a beat, and a gentle and familiar voice entered his ears.
"Hi, Boris. Long time no see."
Turning his head, he noticed that at the edge of the island, a gentle and beautiful lady was looking toward him with a smile. That was his wife, Calvin's mother …
Step!
Before his brain could react, his body had already taken a step forward involuntarily.
In the eyes of others, he had also suddenly disappeared from the deck like Gary.
Very soon, it had only been a few breaths' time.
When the crew members shifted their gazes away from the island with great difficulty, they were surprised to discover that all the extraordinary humans who were level two and above had disappeared. Even the captain and vice-captain were no exception.
Based on the usual style of battle sequences in this world, the extraordinary humans were also the commanders.
"What's going on?"
The commander with the highest status on the ship had become the second officer, who was only a probationary Knight. The middle-aged pirate was stunned.
Boom!
However, the roar of the cannon fire interrupted his inquiry.
In most influences, the affairs of the extraordinary humans were clearly not something that ordinary sailors should worry about. Not all ordinary humans were completely convinced by the extraordinary humans who were above them.
On the surface, no monsters had appeared, and the small island that was filled with gold had been completely opened up to them.
Under the stimulation of this unimaginable temptation, the ordinary sailors' thoughts were very simple. As long as they could get rid of their competitors, all the wealth would be theirs.
This was especially so after losing the suppression from the upper echelons. The battle had once again returned to the situation where the sturdy ships and sharp cannons dominated the battlefield. The strength of the ordinary humans was the key to victory.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Right after the first cannon shot rang out …
A chaotic battle ensued. The orange-red cannon flames illuminated the tall dome, and the loud booming sounds caused the walls that were formed from fog to tremble intensely.
The battle went smoothly.
The 'Oathbreaker' fleet, which had turned out in full force and was clearly stronger than everyone else, was the first to be focused on.
"Fire! Revenge! "
"Kill these traitors among the pirates!"
