The battle was hot-blooded, the process was bitter, and the ending was despair, this was the best description for the Skeleton Party's battle.
Their fighting spirit was reignited, but when the battle truly started, other than rising from the ashes, it was basically mutual destruction.
The sea monster army was truly too many, there were more than a few hundred thousand of them. The group of sea monsters were extremely powerful individually, they had speed and strength that far surpassed ordinary warriors, their only weakness was that they did not know how to cooperate.
Although the Skeleton Party's pirates were few in numbers, they knew how to cooperate and cover for each other. 60 thousand against a few hundred thousand sea monsters, at the start, the Skeleton Party's line of defense was still able to hold on, but very quickly, they could no longer hold on, because the sea monsters seemed to have gone crazy, and became even more bloodthirsty.
They fought from dawn to dawn, and then until the sky brightened again.
The Skeleton Party's pirates felt as though they were in hell, they had never experienced such a bitter battle before.
Even though they had killed countless sea monsters, they still could not see the end, as countless sea monsters continued to charge forward.
They were not like Princess Helen, even though she was the strongest pirate in the world, she was still a mortal.
In this battle, Princess Helen displayed a fighting strength that caused people to suffocate. Others, even a peak powerhouse like Sea Dream, could only kill sea monsters one at a time. However, Princess Helen's greatsword blossomed with golden light. With a single slash, swathes of sea monsters were cleaved in two.
"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh ….."
Every slash of her sword would take the lives of dozens of sea monsters. She was also using Dou Qi, but it seemed to be endless.
It was a pity that she would not help the Skeleton Party, because she wanted to kill her way out of the encirclement to find Shen Lang. No one could see her figure, she was surrounded by tens of thousands of sea monsters at all times, they could only sense her powerful existence through the countless sea monsters flying in the sky, as well as the golden sword radiance.
In this battle, how many sea monsters did Helen kill? No one knew, but the number was uncountable.
And at this time, it was already impossible for the Skeleton Party's pirates to retreat back to Lost Nation Ruins, because they were surrounded by sea monsters from all directions, they could only die in battle.
Just after the sun rose, the huge light screen of the mirage appeared. All the sea monsters were stunned. They stopped fighting and stared blankly at the Queen Medusa in the mirage. They began to cry.
This scene happened almost every day, but today was especially precious.
The Skeleton pirates heaved a sigh of relief after surviving. Then they could not help but look at Douglas Silen on the shore because the mirage only appeared after he arrived.
Douglas was overjoyed to see this. He raised his arms and shouted, "Do you see that? I am the one who saved you, I am the one who saved the Skeleton Party, Shen Lang will only send you to your deaths. "
However, in the next moment, a strange roar suddenly sounded on the sea. Then, the pyramid on the distant snow-capped mountain flashed, and the huge mirage on the sea disappeared.
Countless sea monsters came to their senses and once again launched a frenzied attack.
The hopeless situation had finally arrived. He didn't feel it when he was fighting, because the blood in his body was surging. But after a while, everything changed. His whole body was sore, and he couldn't even lift his knife.
The Skeleton Party army started to suffer heavy casualties, as more and more people died, and the entire defensive line was on the verge of collapsing.
Jack Tang was covered in blood, and even his fake iron hook had fallen off. The machete in his hand was already chopping mechanically.
The Skeleton Party soldiers fighting at the frontlines felt that they might die in the next second, but the sea monsters were endless, and they could not see the end of them.
"Did the miracle not happen?"
"Is the Skeleton Party army going to be annihilated?"
"This might not be a bad result. Even if we die, we will die on the battlefield. It's better than suicide."
"Even if we die now, we will have the face to see King Loki and the leader of Ahn 'Qiraj."
"Even if we are annihilated, the Skeleton Party is still the strongest pirate in the world."
However, at this moment.
"Boom boom boom boom … …"
A huge fireball suddenly surged from the distant sea, and there was a series of earth-shattering noises.
This huge fireball with a diameter of more than a thousand meters rushed out of the sea and directly flew into the sky. At the same time, everyone clearly saw a huge black shadow being thrown into the sky, then torn into pieces and scattered on the sea. That seemed to be the body of the Lost Demon Mother?
At the same time, all the sea monsters stopped and turned to look at the huge fireball, standing there in a daze. Then, the countless sea monsters retreated like the tide, and madly rushed towards the place where the fireball exploded.
This was because their leader, the Lost Demon Mother, was dead.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh … …" These sea monsters were extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, they disappeared without a trace.
All of the Skeleton Party pirates stared blankly at the scene, they were in complete disbelief.
The battle was over? Were they saved?
Did the miracle happen in the end?
However, Helen was even faster than these sea monsters. She did not even swim anymore, but used her combat energy to step on the surface of the sea and dash forward. Because she was so fast, she actually left a long trail of waves on the surface of the sea.
… … …
Very quickly, Helen saw Shen Lang. He was floating on the surface of the sea, far away from the explosion, and the shockwaves did not reach him.
Rushing to Shen Lang's side, Helen pulled Shen Lang up and lightly held his hand, which was enough for him to stand on the surface of the sea.
"Hila's mother did not die before, but she was possessed by the Cursed Queen. I woke her up, and in order to save us at the last moment, she controlled the giant octopus to go to the pyramid that I set to self-destruct, so my plan succeeded. Therefore, it was not me who saved the Skeleton Party; it was still Angela who saved the Skeleton Party. "When Shen Lang said this, there was no joy at all, only infinite shock.
Princess Helen immediately pulled Shen Lang back to the center of the explosion to look for Angela, but she could not find anything.
Pieces of the Lost Demon Mother's body were floating on the surface of the sea, and some were even burning.
Countless sea monsters surged over like a tide, but they did nothing. They just stared blankly at the sea, at the Lost Demonic Mother's corpse, and did not attack Shen Lang and Princess Helen.
After searching a few more times, Helen and Shen Lang could not find Angela. They did not see her, nor did they see her body.
Very quickly, Hila caught up. She looked at Shen Lang and asked, "What's wrong?"
"No, nothing." Shen Lang did not tell Hila the truth. He had to leave now.
During this period of time, the sea monsters were performing a mourning ceremony. Once this ceremony was over, they would regain their bloodlust and madness. At that time, the Skeleton Party would not be able to hold on anymore, and they would all be wiped out.
From Shen Lang's vision, it was not clear, but if he looked from the sky, he would see hundreds of thousands of sea monsters surrounding the Lost Demon Mother's body and forming a circle that kept spinning.
"Let's go …" Shen Lang said. "Hila, when we have time in the future, can we come back here?"
… …
When they returned to the area where the Skeleton Party's fleet was, the scene was shocking.
There were countless corpses and wreckage floating on the surface of the sea. The battle just now was too intense, and even the surface of the sea was dyed red.
There were many corpses of the Skeleton Party's pirates, but there were even more corpses of the sea monsters. One-third of the battleships had sunk, and another third had been damaged.
This was the most unforgettable battle in the history of the Skeleton Party.
Seeing Shen Lang's appearance, Jacktang was stunned for a moment, as though he couldn't believe his eyes.
Everyone thought that Shen Lang had sacrificed himself to save the Skeleton Party, but now Shen Lang had actually returned alive.
Actually, Shen Lang had wanted to bring back a piece of the Lost Demon Mother's corpse to prove his merit. However, after thinking about it, he decided not to do so. He appeared in front of everyone in such a pitiful state.
Opening his mouth, Shen Lang wanted to say something, but he did not say anything in the end.
Jacktang did not say anything either. He used his scimitar and knelt down on one knee.
Next was Hai Meng, she looked at Douglas who was on the shore, then looked at her brother Hai Meng's corpse, and then looked at Princess Helen. She also used her scimitar and knelt down on one knee.
Like dominoes falling, the countless Skeleton Party soldiers knelt down one after another.
Thousands, tens of thousands of people knelt down in front of Shen Lang without making a sound.
After a long while, Shen Lang spoke in a hoarse voice: "If you follow me, you will not gain any freedom, I will kill my way back to the Eastern World. My enemy is the entire Eastern World, and that is an existence much stronger than the Xi Lun Empire. "
The tens of thousands of Skeleton Party pirates continued to kneel on the ground without making a sound.
Shen Lang said: "Many people have died in today's battle, it is extremely tragic. But I do not dare guarantee that it will be the most tragic battle you have ever fought, and I do not even dare guarantee how many of you will die, are you sure you want to follow me? "
The tens of thousands of Skeleton Party soldiers lowered their heads and remained silent, kneeling on the ground quietly.
Many of them had died, but their hearts were filled with joy, all of the gloominess and depression had disappeared completely, and they felt an unprecedented pride. Their broken spines had once again straightened, and their souls had once again returned.
It truly proved Shen Lang's words, humans must save themselves, only then can the heavens save them.
Shen Lang said: "Since it is so, then swear loyalty to me, I will continue to bring you to battle, and bring you to become stronger. What number one pirate in the Western World, that is far from enough, I want you to become the number one navy in the world, the number one navy in the universe, no matter what enemies you meet in the future, you will kill them all. "
"Long live the Skeleton Party!"
"The Skeleton Party will never be extinguished."
No one shouted out these slogans, but it was roared in the hearts of the Skeleton Party pirates.
The powerful Skeleton Party was back, and was going to shock the world once again, and sweep and conquer the entire ocean.
At this point, Shen Lang's plan to conquer the Skeleton Party army had succeeded, and he had finally obtained the strongest pirates in the world.
"Then, let us go home now!"
Following Shen Lang's order, the Skeleton Party fleet raised the sails of the remaining warships.
"Woo woo woo woo …"
The old horn sounded, and the remaining Skeleton Party fleet headed north, leaving the ruins of the Lost Nation.
This time, they had truly left.
… …
On the Skeleton Party's huge flagship, Shen Lang had already become its new owner. He stood at the back of the ship, looking at the Lost Nation ruins that were getting further and further away, looking at the pyramid on the peak of the snow mountain.
From the start to the end, this mysterious organization did not appear, but it played a crucial role.
From the looks of it now, they did not have good intentions when they gave the Battle Horn to Angela. It was not to save the Skeleton Party, but to give the Cursed Queen a new body.
In these countless years, there were not many people who came to explore the ruins of the Lost Nation, and the Cursed Queen had to change her body every few decades. How did she do it? Perhaps she had some kind of unspeakable contract with the mysterious organization on the peak of the snow mountain.
"I really want to charge up there and see what is going on, to see who exactly is inside this pyramid," Hila suddenly said.
But what she said was Princess Helen's heart. If it was before, Helen would definitely charge up without hesitation. But now, she could not, because she had someone to protect and a responsibility to fulfill.
"Helen, after going through such a crazy and tragic battle, why is there not a single trace of blood on you, and you are still as pure as a Saintess?" Hila could not help but ask.
"My dear sister, if you were taught all kinds of noble etiquette from the age of three, you would also be able to do it," Princess Helen said.
"Too hypocritical, I just can't stand it," Hila said.
"I don't like it, but I can accept it and abide by it," Princess Helen said.
"Just like that bullsh * t noble contract of yours, bringing Douglas back to the Xilun Empire and handing him over to the Royal Court for trial, and not directly killing him? If it was me, I would have skinned this b * stard long ago. "
Princess Helen was stunned. "My dear sister, if I am not wrong, he should be your brother."
Hila was stunned. "I … I almost forgot. But I can't smell the scent of family on him. Only on the two of you, I smell the scent of family, and it makes me infatuated. "
Then, Hila went up and hugged Helen again.
Princess Helen frowned, but she did not refuse. Since young, her godmother had told her that even a royal princess must be proud and humble, and she could not hurt the sincerity of others.
"Hugging you is so comfortable. You smell so good," Hila said.
"Shen Lang, you are a wise man. Can you answer a question of mine?" Princess Helen asked.
"Of course," Shen Lang said.
Helen asked, "What is your dream? What is your mission? "
"Oh my god, I really can't stand such a serious topic. I'm going to drink." Hila patted her head and left, leaving Helen and Shen Lang alone.
Shen Lang said, "My dream is to have no enmity in the world and to kill all my enemies."
"Is that so?" Helen said. "Although I have heard about you from my family, I have always been confused. Can such an unambitious person become a king? Now, it seems that this is one of the greatest ambitions. In the words of the Easterners, the dragon has nine sons, and each son is different. "
"I can tell," Shen Lang said with a smile. "Before I met you, I thought you were like Hila, energetic, rebellious, and adventurous. But when I met you in person, I realized that you are so contradictory. "
"Hmm?" Helen asked.
"You are indeed rebellious and adventurous," Shen Lang said. "Not only are you not afraid of death, but sometimes you even actively seek death. But you are also like a model of royalty. Every word and action is elegant, calm, tolerant, and full of responsibility, even to the point of being pedantic. "
"Dogmatism, is it?" Helen said.
"Yes, you are full of the rules of the royal family. You can't say a word that is out of line, and you can't have any imperfections." "But your heart is so wild and adventurous," Shen Lang said. "These two characteristics are actually perfectly combined in you."
"I take that as a compliment." Princess Helen smiled.
Then, Princess Helen said, "I have been adventuring for more than a decade just to find one thing, the meaning of life."
"Sister, this idea of yours is a bit extravagant for me," Shen Lang said. When I first arrived in the Eastern world, I lived among the common people. I came from an extremely poor peasant family. My only dream was to live off a woman and live a luxurious and wealthy life. This goddamn world actually forced me to become some bullsh * t Human Emperor. "
"The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility," Princess Helen said.
"Stop, stop, stop …" Shen Lang said. "My dear sister, every time I am with Hila, I am worried that I will be led astray by her. But now, when I am with you, I always feel like I have met a political teacher who has to teach me all the time. "
Princess Helen smiled embarrassedly and said, "Sorry, I am really used to it. I grew up like this. But don't be angry, in these few months, Shen Mi has been with me, and this is how I taught her. And her mother, Bing 'er, seems very happy to see this scene. "
Of course, Bing 'er dreamed of making Shen Mi a real princess. In order to achieve this goal, she could even sever the mother-daughter relationship with her baby daughter. No one could be stronger than Bing' er in her desire to see her daughter become a phoenix.
"Then does Shen Mi like it?" Shen Lang asked.
He could not help but think of Shen Mi. It has been almost a year, is her little face still so serious? Are her big eyes still so lively?
"Very much, she is born like a princess, quiet and smart, elegant and pure," Princess Helen said. Princess Helen said, "Sometimes, I even wonder if I can make her my daughter."
"That's fine, all my children can become your children." Shen Lang said, "Sister, what do you want to do after returning to the Xilun Dynasty this time?"
"You said you want to have no enmity in the world. This is a goal and also a mission." Princess Helen said, "And I can no longer avoid my own responsibility. My great-great-grandmother Queen Helen completed half of the empire, and I want to complete the remaining half. The entire south of the empire is waiting for me, and I can no longer pretend that I can't see or hear anything. "
Shen Lang was not such a person, but he respected such people. It was as if they were born with the responsibility of saving the people.
At this time, he also felt the charm of the dragon's nine children. Every child of his father, Jiang Li, was different. Princess Ji Ning was pure and beautiful, Hila was wild and bold, Helen was elegant and full of mission. Shen Lang saw the temperament of a king in her.
Every one of them had inherited a part of Jiang Li's personality, and every one of them was so cute.
Shen Lang suddenly said, "Sister, do you know Duke Debus?"
"Her? I know, "Princess Helen said." She's strong and smart, and she has a flexible vision. "
Wouldn't it be better to just say that she was a purely political creature who only cared about profit? Shen Lang found that this sister of his really had the best upbringing, and it was very difficult to hear her speak ill of others from her mouth.
"In order to get her money and resources, I married her," Shen Lang said. "She is now my legal wife in the western world."
"Ugh!" Princess Helen was speechless for a moment.
After a long time, Princess Helen said, "In that case, I will give you my blessings."
But after saying this, Princess Helen felt that it was very strange, because most of the western world had a monogamous system. Men would have many lovers, but there would only be one true husband and wife, and if they wanted to take another, they would have to divorce first.
And Shen Lang already had more than one wife, and now that he married Debus, it really went against her morals.
However, everything was reasonable, and she had to tolerate some things she didn't understand.
"You don't know how much she longs to see you," Shen Lang said. "When you appear in front of her, she will definitely be ecstatic."
"I also long to see her, but her position might be somewhat contrary to mine." Princess Helen said.
"She used to be, but now she's on the same side. You also said that her field of vision is very flexible. "
This was not false at all, after Shen Lang told her that he was Princess Helen's brother, Debus immediately adjusted her mentality, feeling that she and Shen Lang were a match made in heaven.
… …
One day later!
The Skeleton Fleet officially left the cursed sea region, because they saw the human-faced snake island again. This was the boundary line of the cursed sea region.
The last time they passed by this place, they thought that they had already escaped, but they didn't expect to return to the starting point and collapse in despair.
And this time, when they saw the boundary line pirates, the countless Skeleton Fleet only glanced at them, no one prayed, and the fleet didn't stop.
It was really strange, the last time, countless people told them that they had already escaped, but they still felt uneasy and prayed.
And this time, no one told them that they had already escaped, but they knew clearly in their hearts that they had already escaped.
Perhaps when they raised their blades again and reignited their fighting spirit, they had already escaped the cursed sea region. Because this curse was not only on the surface of the sea, it was also in their hearts, this time, they were really going home!
The final list was out.
At the start, the Skeleton Fleet had 120,000 people, when Shen Lang went to the Lost Nation Ruins, there were only 60,000, and now there were 40,000! Not long ago, in the decisive battle with the sea monsters, a total of 20,000 people died.
"Enough!" Shen Lang said in his heart.
It was indeed enough, this was the strongest pirate fleet, 40,000 people was enough, this was a seed that would soon grow into a towering tree, he believed that in a few years, this fleet would expand to 100,000, 200,000.
As long as the fighting spirit existed, the Skeleton Fleet would be the strongest fleet in the world, regardless of the number.
… …
"My dear brother, why do you seem to be more eager to go home than us?" Hila laughed.
Shen Lang gritted his teeth and said, "Of course, did you forget what I said before I went to the Lost Nation Ruins? I want to wipe out the Bloody Baron's pirate fleet, not even a blade of grass will grow, I want to eliminate the House of Menlo. "
After coming to the Western World, Shen Lang actually did not have many enemies. There were only two people whom he hated the most.
One was Adolf, because he had evil intentions towards Queen Aida, and as Jiang Li's disciple, he had betrayed his father Jiang Li.
The other was the Bloody Baron Xiao Menlo, Shen Lang's hatred for him was even stronger.
This person changed his attitude like flipping a book, twice sealing Shen Lang's Mulan City, attacking Shen Lang's ships a few times, sinking a total of six ships, and killing hundreds of Shen Lang's sailors.
This was bullying Shen Lang for not having a strong fleet, and not having control over the sea.
Shen Lang needed a large amount of saltpeter and volcanic ash, but the sea route was completely blocked by the Bloody Baron, and they had no choice but to hole up in Mulan City, not daring to go out to sea, and even had to be careful when fishing. It was really too cowardly.
This person was loyal to Deborah at first, but then he betrayed her and sided with Adolf.
"Don't worry, although the Bloody Baron claims to have an army of a hundred thousand pirates, the forty thousand of us can easily wipe them out," Hila said. "Just you wait, wait for the Skeleton Fleet to take revenge for you. I guarantee that we will wipe out this idiot's fleet, and there will not be a single enemy within a few thousand miles of the sea. I guarantee that the entire southern sea of Xilun will become your internal sea. We, the Skeleton Fleet, are invincible."
"I'll wait and see," Shen Lang said. "How many more days until we return to Bi Jin City?"
The reason why it was said to be Bi Jin City and not Mulan City was because the fleet was too big, and the small port in Mulan City could not accommodate it at all. Only a port in a super big city like Bi Jin City could accommodate it.
"Four days!" Hila said.
"My treasured sword is already restless, ready to go on a killing spree," Shen Lang said. "Bloody Baron, this is the end of you, idiot."
… …
Inside the castle at the top of Bi Jin City.
Deborah was in an absolute frenzy because everything was bad news.
In the past two months, bad news came one after another, each worse than the last.
The entire Russo Family's fleet had rebelled, and Bi Jin City was actually under a sea blockade. The Bloody Baron and Dodge Russo's fleet had actually sunk dozens of her merchant ships.
Bi Jin City was a sea trading city, and almost all of its resources came from trade. This blockade was a fatal blow to the entire city, and now the entire city was in turmoil, almost out of control.
However, the bad news on the sea was not big enough. The real bad news came from the land, from the northern nobles, and from Sauron the Great.
Her union with Shen Lang still caused a huge uproar, even though she had executed the rebellious vassals. However, she still could not suppress the rebellious thoughts of the vassals. At this moment, Bi Jin City was completely isolated and surrounded.
"Duke, five of our ships were sunk today. Even though the route we took was very secretive, the Bloody Baron seemed to know everything like the back of his hand. He took away all the silk on our merchant ships, hung hundreds of sailors, and threw them into Bi Jin City with a catapult," Deborah said coldly.
"The Bloody Baron is not such a person. He is very cunning, but he does not have the guts."
"He should be under Adolf's orders. In order to become the Navy Vice Admiral of the Empire, he tried his best to curry favor with this person, and did not hesitate to slaughter our merchant ships."
Duke Deborah said, "Did he reply to my letter to Sauron the Great? I have already explained the benefits of my union with Shen Lang to the Empire. Shen Lang is Princess Helen's younger brother. "
Count Bai Ting said, "I believe this, but no one can prove it. In the eyes of all the nobles, Shen Lang is only an Easterner. It is a disgrace for you to marry such an Easterner. He claimed to be Princess Helen's younger brother, but all the nobles feel that it is a complete lie. "
"No, this is not a lie," Deborah said.
Duke Bai Ting said, "Of course I also believe in Lord Shen Lang, but we cannot convince these people. You know how stubborn these nobles of the Xilun Dynasty are. Unless Princess Helen really appears, even the whole south is longing for her return. "
"That bastard Shen Lang still hasn't returned?" Duke Deborah said angrily, "That liar, he lied to me and said that Princess Helen had already arrived, but in the end, he disappeared. He said something about going to the Lost Nation Ruins, but he left all the mess to me."
"Not yet … …" Count Bai Ting said.
He did not finish his words. The Lost Nation Ruins was so dangerous, anyone who went there would most likely be met with misfortune. Although Shen Lang was extremely intelligent, the entire Skeleton Party fleet had completely disappeared there.
"This bastard, this bastard … …" Duke Deborah suddenly stood up.
At this time, a female doctor opened her mouth and said, "Your Excellency, you may not be able to get angry again. This is not good."
Deborah trembled and said, "Why?"
The female doctor said, "Because you are already pregnant."
