Although he still couldn't understand the principle of the shield he had just released, all Li Ke could do now was to constantly speed up his pace and instill the ascender's power he could mobilize into the blue shield, trying his best to survive the bombardment.
Good Luck, who was in his arms, also saw the cannonballs crashing down like hailstones when he sped up. She opened her mouth wide and let go of the gun in her hand. Years of experience told her that she could not survive because it was impossible for them to survive under such a bombardment.
At the very least, she couldn't survive.
So she closed her eyes, thought about her life, and quietly waited for the end of her life.
The sound of cannonballs hitting the ground was endless. Li Ke and Good Luck seemed to have been specially taken care of. The cannonballs where they were were were very dense. The moment Li Ke was hit by a cannonball and sent flying, another cannonball the size of a human head smashed into his side. The strong blast once again sent him flying, and Good Luck, who was in his arms, spat out a mouthful of blood.
The blue shield on Li Ke's body was instantly broken when another shell landed, but when he wanted to ask Yatokus for help, he was ruthlessly rejected. He didn't have time to think too much, because the bombardment wasn't over yet. He had to forcibly squeeze his body, make his right arm constantly produce ascender's power, and condense his broken blue shield in front of him again.
But as if it was a signal, when he condensed the blue shield again, another round of bombardment smashed into his side, causing his shield to break again. However, this time, he was prepared. He resisted the urge to vomit blood and squeezed out more of his body. He poured a large amount of life force into his right arm, allowing his arm to convert it into even more ascender power.
Then, he saw countless cannonballs raining down on him.
Li Ke knew that the shield he had just condensed would absolutely not be able to withstand another bombardment, so he could only go one step further and transfer more life force into his right arm, and then instill the ascender's power into the shield in front of him.
A strong impact once again appeared beside him. He could only feel a strong impact constantly appearing beside him, and his whole body was covered by the sandstorm raised by the explosion. Although he couldn't see it himself, the armor-like thing on his right hand seemed to be turning illusory, constantly transforming into a blue shadow, and his eyes and most of his body were wrapped in flickering blue power. Unbeknownst to him, the circular shield that he had been maintaining was slowly forming into a magnificent shield.
Finally, under Li Ke's gaze, the moment a pitch-black shell smashed towards him, he summoned all his strength, and the gradually forming blue shield also revealed its true appearance at this moment.
A pair of blue wings unfurled in an instant along with a gorgeous shield. Some tactics that Li Ke couldn't understand were also displayed in front of him. He could clearly see how the solid cannonball slowly collapsed in front of his shield, and then produced a dazzling explosion. And now, his brain began to buzz, and he felt that all the strength in his body was drained. But this was definitely not a place to stay for long. He quickly grabbed Lucky, who had fainted on the ground, and rushed towards the ship before the smoke and the next round of bombardment fell.
And while Li Ke was running towards the ship, the real culprit who attacked the town held a telescope and looked at the billowing smoke and dust with a bloodthirsty smile on his face.
"It looks like it has been blown to pieces. Magic is really not as reassuring as artillery."
He sighed and threw his telescope to his newly promoted first mate, then walked to the side of a trembling guy who was peeling oranges. He casually patted him on the shoulder, then showed a gentle and ugly smile.
"I destroyed your territory, are you angry?"
His words made the guy who was holding the oranges tremble and sit on the deck, completely destroying all the courage of the other party. But as if he didn't see it, he slowly pulled out the long sword in his hand, then roasted it in a pre-set brazier, and spoke again with a gradually cold tone.
"Although I don't know why I suddenly wanted to check the account book when I was looking for fun at sea, but this little idea let me know that you're not honest … So I came here. Don't you think that things in this world are very strange, Rotten Nose?"
He chuckled as he plunged his roasted long saber into the thigh of the pirate named Rotten Nose. This pirate, who was considered a big shot by most pirates, let out a mournful howl. When the pirate pulled out his saber, Rotten Nose knelt on the deck and cried bitterly, begging for mercy from this man who almost crippled him.
"Captain, Captain Plump … That's just a mistake in my account book! I will go back and make up for what belongs to you! Absolutely! And … "
But before he could finish his words, his head was stepped on by Plump. His face had an intimate contact with the rough soles of Plump's boots that were stained with salt water. He also felt a long sword with his own warm blood suddenly appeared beside his ear.
"And what?"
Planck's voice made the captain feel as if he was talking to him from the abyss. Planck's long knife was slicing his ears into pieces bit by bit as he spoke. But the captain dared not resist at all because he knew that if he resisted, he would be tortured even more, and his slim chance of survival would vanish in an instant. Planck's voice made the captain feel as if he was talking to him from the abyss. Planck's long knife was slicing his ears into pieces bit by bit as he spoke. Therefore, he couldn't care less anymore. He tried his best to move his mouth so that he could say what he wanted to say in exchange for his life.
"Eighty percent, no, all! Captain Plump! From now on, I'll be your loyal servant, and all the profits here will be yours! "
He said all the price he could give, hoping that Plump would forgive him. But when Plump's big foot let go of his face and kicked a peeled orange stained with dirty water in front of him, he heard Plump's regretful voice.
"I really want to let you and your men go, Rotten Nose, but you seem to have forgotten what I said … I asked you to peel the orange, but you let it fall to the ground."
Rotten Nose subconsciously wanted to beg for mercy again, but Plump kicked him in the face, causing him to swallow his words, and almost all his rotten teeth fell out. Plump didn't care about this guy anymore. Instead, he picked up a piece of cloth and wiped his long sword. When he walked towards the rudder, he ordered his men to deal with the situation.
"Use the cannons to launch this guy out of here. The gunfire and killing can stop. Also …"
He looked at the trembling sailor accompanying him and revealed a smile.
"What's your name?"
The sailor who had just boarded his ship immediately lowered his head and said his name with a little fear.
"Will, Captain."
Plump didn't care. He even appreciated the fear in the young man's eyes. He casually threw the cloth that he used to wipe his long sword into a bucket and put it away.
"From now on, you're 'Captain Will'. You're responsible for taking over everything on Rotten Nose. Understand?"
The young sailor let out a sound of joy, surprise, and fear. Plump also showed a smile at this moment because …
He saw a ship that hadn't been bombed yet.
