In the dark of the night, Wang Feng led two hundred and fifty Divine Guards and a thousand frogmen soldiers into the Wulin Water Stockade silently. As soon as they entered, they headed straight for the Overlord.
The layout of the water stockade had already been thoroughly investigated by the frogmen.
The entire army of assassins was like a school of fish, slipping through the water without anyone noticing.
As soon as the frogmen got close to the Overlord, they spread out according to the drill and surrounded the Overlord. One hundred frogmen retrieved their underwater breathing apparatus along the way and prepared to retreat.
"Go!"
Wang Feng made an attack gesture in the dark of the night. Like a chain, it was transmitted to the entire army.
This gesture was taught in the Special Operations Base and was the standard gesture of the Special Forces in reality. All the soldiers of the Divine Guards and the Imperial Guards could understand it.
The frogmen who participated in this operation also urgently received hand signal training.
The night was dark and windy. It was best not to make a sound if they could.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The Divine Guards were the first to act. They threw out their claws and firmly grabbed onto the edge of the deck. The Divine Guards were like monkeys, nimbly pulling on the ropes and quickly boarding the warship.
The entire process was as smooth as flowing water.
After boarding, the Divine Guards lowered a rope ladder for the frogmen to climb up.
"Move!"
Wang Feng made another gesture.
The Divine Martial Guards took down the Divine Armed Crossbows on their backs in unison, loaded the arrows, and disappeared from the deck in battle formation. The whole process was silent, like a civet in the dark night.
After a while, the patrol on the deck appeared in the Divine Guards' vision.
"Attack!"
Pu! Pu! Pu!
The crossbows were fired and the arrows pierced through the air.
Every Divine Guard was a master archer. Their control of the Divine Armed Crossbows had already reached the realm of never missing an arrow. Even in the dark of the night, with the light of the torch, they were still accurate.
In less than two minutes, the patrol on the first deck was completely annihilated without any resistance. They didn't even have the chance to scream.
Just like that, the Divine Guards were like a group of ghosts, advancing along the deck layer by layer, harvesting the lives of their enemies like the Grim Reaper in the night.
The combat style of the Divine Guard was practically a replica of the special forces in real life. The first phase of their mission was to get rid of the patrol team's spies.
On the other side, except for the fifty people who were responsible for sinking the ship, the rest of the frogmen team had all boarded the ship. There were also hundreds of barrels of Fierce Kerosene.
"Quick, hurry up!"
The commanding officer deliberately lowered his voice and commanded everyone to take action.
The frogmen team immediately transformed into an army of ants, transporting barrels of Fierce Fire Oil to every corner of the battleship and pouring them out. The dark Fierce Fire Oil flowed on the deck, and people would slip if they stepped on it.
The location of the Ferocious Kerosene was precisely calculated. Once it was ignited, the entire warship would turn into a sea of fire. By that time, even the frogmen would not be able to escape.
Therefore, this was the last resort. It could be considered a form of insurance.
After arranging the Fierce Kerosene, the frogman team didn't stop for a moment and immediately dispersed. According to the tasks assigned to them before they set off, some led teams into the cabins and were responsible for killing the crew members.
A large number of sleeping sailors were killed in their sleep. The scene was extremely tragic. Occasionally, those who woke up were quickly killed, letting out one or two suppressed screams across the silent night sky.
Blood began to corrode the dark night.
Some frogmen lined up and went to support the Divine Guards. After all, the number of Divine Guards was limited. It wasn't easy to take down the top deck, and they needed firepower support.
Some hid in the dark corners, ready to ignite the Fierce Kerosene at any time. These people responsible for igniting the fire were basically equivalent to members of the suicide squad.
The last part was responsible for guarding the periphery and guarding against enemy reinforcements.
…
The night was getting darker and darker.
The dark night was oppressive and filled with an invisible smoke that was suffocating.
Even the night wind had stopped, and the surroundings were silent.
On the top deck of the Overlord, the Divine Guards had assembled.
At this moment, the moon hidden in the clouds suddenly revealed itself. The soft moonlight shone down, illuminating the figures of the Divine Guards.
Their armors were already stained with blood.
Not every killing operation would be smooth sailing. If the location of the ambush was wrong, or if someone was lucky enough to escape the first round of attacks, then the Divine Guards would have to fight with their lives on the line.
They had to ensure that they could quickly finish off the enemy without making a huge noise. The best way was naturally to engage in close combat. This way, it was unavoidable that they would be covered in blood, and some even died.
The murderous aura of the Divine Guards had already taken form, making people fearful.
Up until now, everything had gone smoothly, and there were no major accidents.
Wang Feng, who was leading the team, didn't have a trace of joy on his face. Wang Feng knew that the next operation would be the biggest test for them. Everything that had happened before was just an appetizer.
Intelligence showed that Xiong Ba's study and bedroom were both on the top floor, so the defense here was the tightest. There were three layers of defense inside and outside.
The outermost layer was still the navy patrols, numbering over a hundred people. The middle layer was Xiong Ba's Imperial Guards, numbering around two hundred people, all well-equipped and brave.
As for the innermost layer, it was naturally Xiong Ba's personal guards, also numbering a hundred people.
It would be extremely difficult for the Divine Guards to break through these three layers of defense.
Luckily, the Divine Guards weren't fighting alone. Ten minutes later, three hundred of the most elite frogmen arrived.
"General!"
The frogmen's commanding officer reported.
"Move out!"
Wang Feng was as decisive as ever. Once everyone arrived, the battle began.
Five hundred people quietly surrounded the patrols under the moonlight, and the Divine Armed Crossbows fired again.
"Pu! Pu! Pu! "
The outermost patrols didn't resist at all, and were instantly turned into porcupines.
Seeing this, Wang Feng secretly let out a sigh of relief. One had to know that the patrols were less than a hundred meters away from the Imperial Guards. If they made any loud noises, the Imperial Guards would hear them.
When that happened, the situation wouldn't be good.
At this moment, an accident happened!
At the back of the cabin, a member of the patrol team walked out unsteadily. From the looks of it, this person had temporarily left the team and ran to the side to relieve himself.
"I'm back!"
As soon as the person came out of the cabin, he saw his brothers lying in a pool of blood.
"Murder ~ ~ ~ Ugh ~ ~ ~"
As soon as he shouted, an arrow pierced his throat, and he fell to the ground, dead.
When this person first appeared, the Divine Guards thought the battle was over, and it was the time to relax. They didn't expect that such an oversight would allow a fish to escape the net.
The scream of fear was extremely ear-piercing in the silent night.
Wang Feng's expression instantly turned ugly.
Such a loud scream immediately alerted the Imperial Guards in the middle.
"Who is it?!"
"Quick, go and see what's going on!"
"Stay alert!"
…
"Prepare for battle!"
The Imperial Guards in charge of guarding were indeed elites. They panicked but didn't panic. They arranged for people to come and check, and they formed a battle formation while reporting the situation to their superiors.
This way, the Divine Guards didn't have any chance.
On the deck, corpses lay in pools of blood, looking very pale under the moonlight. At the same time, the Divine Martial Guard soldiers appeared in the Forbidden Army's field of vision.
"Who are you?" The Imperial Guards had already quietly held their weapons in their hands.
"Go!"
Seeing this, Wang Feng knew that they could only attack by force.
Wang Feng could tell at a glance that the enemy didn't want to get an answer at all. They were just trying to stall for time. How could Wang Feng fall for it?
"Kill!"
An assassination attempt had suddenly turned into an open murder.
…
"There's an assassin!"
The Imperial Guards had already received the news, and the entire top deck woke up.
"What's going on?"
Xiong Ba walked out of his room. Like Ouyang Shuo, he remained vigilant even in his sleep. The commotion outside immediately woke Xiong Ba up from his sleep.
The worry he had before sleeping had just turned into a nightmare. In his dream, Xiong Ba saw the entire water stronghold in a sea of fire.
"Sir, there's an assassin outside!" The Imperial Guard Captain hurried over to report.
"Assassin, what assassin?" Xiong Ba didn't react for a moment. "Was it sent by the other lords?"
Xiong Ba was puzzled. This water stronghold was like a military camp. How could there be assassins? Could it be that there was a spy hidden among them, and they wanted to take advantage of the chaos to cause trouble?
Xiong Ba wasn't very panicked at this moment.
If it really was a spy that jumped out, Xiong Ba would be happy instead. It would save him the trouble of blindly thinking about it. Xiong Ba didn't believe that anyone could assassinate him in the water stronghold.
"Sir, the other party is a legitimate army." The Imperial Guard Captain's expression was somewhat solemn. "I just received news that the entire flagship has fallen. The Imperial Guards are holding them back."
"What, the situation has already reached this point?" Xiong Ba was shocked.
"Sir, quickly retreat!" The Imperial Guard Captain's expression was somewhat anxious.
"Retreat? No, let me think. " Xiong Ba was Xiong Ba after all. He wasn't a coward. Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration. "Damn it, they couldn't have been sent by Wu Yi, right? How did they sneak into the water stronghold? "
The domestic players didn't know about the underwater breathing apparatus.
"Immediately sound the alarm. They must have eaten a bear's heart and a leopard's gall to dare to mess with the King of Hell!" Xiong Ba wasn't a good person. The other party dared to behave atrociously in his territory. He wanted these people to not return.
"Wu Yi, I didn't think you would use such a lowly method." Xiong Ba calmed down. It was as if he had won a battle, and the corner of his mouth revealed a trace of a smile.
As expected of an ambitious and ruthless person. His way of thinking was different from others.
… …
The rumbling sound of war drums suddenly exploded in the water stronghold, completely breaking the silence of the night.
Like a frying pan, the sleeping water stockade immediately woke up. The sleeping beasts opened their eyes and revealed their mouths full of fangs, as if they were about to devour someone.
