Chapter 73 The wind blows!
After a brief analysis, Byrne immediately said to the old priest and the mayor:
"They should be hiding at the bottom of a ship, trying to test our patience. We'd better find a way to force those two people out of the water."
Alchemical explosives won’t work, not to mention the consequences of blowing up all the ships in the port.
The more direct reason is that the thing won't explode in water.
After thinking for a while, he said, "I need you to confess your abilities, obey my command, and cooperate to see if there is any solution."
However, everyone looked troubled.
In fact, few people are willing to reveal the extraordinary abilities they possess. Although bloodline and talent are relatively difficult to hide, each person's specific spell types, spellcasting techniques, and war skills are all different cards.
When Byrne saw everyone's expressions, he knew that his prestige was insufficient, so he no longer made such a request.
The old priest asked the guards to disperse and retreat, not getting too close to the water.
Byrne watched this scene calmly from the side, not knowing the specific reason.
The old priest narrowed his eyes and explained calmly, "We can't get too close. If the enemy suddenly jumps out of the water and rushes into our team, it's easy to accidentally injure one of our own if we shoot at close range."
So that's how it is. Byrne quickly understood the logic of such command.
The flintlock rifle was quite powerful, but its biggest problem was that it loaded bullets very slowly and the bullet was not accurate enough after being fired.
Simply put, the armies of various countries are better at "line-up shooting" and have basically not been trained in skirmish tactics. If a transcendent person rushes into the team, the formation will easily become dispersed.
Therefore, we must keep distance as much as possible. For the mortal troops armed with flintlock rifles, the "distance" between the two sides is undoubtedly the "lifeline".
The old priest saw Byrne's thoughtful look and knew that the young man had understood the truth.
The young man Fischer was very smart. He thought that Byrne might have great development in the future, but it was a pity that the savior of this family's faith was gone.
The relationship between the Storm Church and the Redemption Church is definitely not good, and the friction between them is increasing. No priests from the Redemption Church have set foot on the East Coast in more than ten years, but there are still many Redemption believers in this area who have been passed down from generation to generation.
He felt that the most important reason was that the Bishop of the East Coast Diocese was not interested in missionary work at all.
Irene called over some of the family's most loyal guards, took out some papers with rings printed on them, and asked them to secretly distribute them to various places outside the dock without letting anyone else notice.
Her publicized identity is a healing-type extraordinary person and a believer of the Church of Redemption. If her ability of mystic ear is exposed, it will be difficult to explain, although she can also use the mysterious object to shirk responsibility.
The family guards obeyed the order and went to the periphery, while Irene closed her eyes and listened quietly to the movements around her through the secret ear.
She has to be on guard against the metamorphic Bloodline Knight who is still missing!
The two people in the water were just struggling in their death throes. The real threat was the cultist of the Poseidon Cult. As a metamorphic-level warrior, he possessed far more powerful destructive power and mobility than those at the origin level.
"Will you show up, or will you abandon your brothers and sisters and leave?"
Irene closed her eyes and listened attentively to the sounds coming from all directions.
After becoming a transcendent, her five senses became more acute. When she closed her eyes, the smell of the sea breeze in her nostrils became more real and clear.
At this moment, she felt like she was walking alone on the dark ocean, feeling uneasy deep in her heart.
However, the girl could never hear the voice that she wanted to hear but was afraid to hear, and the powerful enemy of the metamorphic level still did not arrive.
It is very likely that he has really abandoned his family and chose to leave Nasir alone.
"call……"
Irene heard it, and everyone heard it too. The sound of the sea breeze on the dock suddenly became extremely clear.
It's windy.
Suddenly, the wind on the sea began to rise, and everyone felt it. Then the wind on the dock gradually became stronger and stronger. It was not the extraordinary power of any person or god, but the unparalleled magical power from nature!
"not good!"
Both Byrne and the old priest realized that something terrible had happened, and their expressions changed drastically in an instant!
Byrne immediately shouted at the top of his lungs: "Oh no! The wind is blowing! Everyone, be alert! Be careful that the torches might go out!"
Just as Byrne finished shouting and the dock was gradually becoming turbulent, Irene suddenly heard extremely faint footsteps coming from outside!
"That metamorphic enemy is coming, right behind us!"
She opened her eyes and immediately pointed her finger behind her and shouted!
However, the patrol team's combat quality was very low, and many people had not yet reacted to the two orders issued in succession by the brother and sister.
A gust of wind like the breath of God suddenly blew over the sea. It was like a joke from God, or a teasing from nature. Everyone's hair was blown around. The surging wind even blew out the torches in many people's hands. Suddenly, most of the dock became dark.
The strong wind also blew the hanging giant bell, and a loud sound came from the bell tower above the Nasir Storm Church!
“Boom!”
A huge bell rang in the town. It seemed like the prelude to the feast of killing, or like the death knell announcing the impending death. Everyone was extremely nervous deep down!
The old storm priest's face was filled with disbelief. Why, majestic storm master! The strong wind on the sea would actually help your enemies!
The next moment, the sound of splashing water was heard from one side of the dock.
The person hiding in the water finally came up!
Although the dock became almost completely dark, some people still kept their torches lit.
Suddenly, they saw a mysterious man in a black robe and a mask appearing behind them. Just standing there, he had an aura like a wild beast.
Everyone raised their flintlock rifles without hesitation and prepared to shoot!
"attack!"
The next moment, gunshots rang out!
The mysterious man in black robe silently stretched out his foot and stepped on the ground, which immediately lifted up a lot of land. They flew up into the air as if inspired to block the bullets!
Even if some bullets hit the black-robed man's body, they would only cause scratches.
Although he and his younger siblings are all from the Isaac family, he inherited the earth-type bloodline, unlike his younger siblings who all possess the water bloodline power of the "Heat Wave Blood Whale".
If a Blood Knight wants to increase the power of his bloodline, he needs the corresponding "Awakening Potion", and the Poseidon Cult has many water-based awakening potions. When he was a child, he could only secretly envy his younger brother and sister.
Now he no longer needs to be envious!
Because after reaching the metamorphic level, he has truly become qualitatively different from ordinary people!
Only after truly reaching the level of "transformation" can the spellcaster master unique spellcasting techniques, and the Bloodline Knight will not only see a significant improvement in physical fitness.
When the power in the blood is sublimated, the knight can perform powerful war skills!
There are a total of twenty-eight kinds of war skills summarized on the continent of Oden, each of which has quite impressive effects, and the smaller the number, the more powerful the war skill is!
Art of War 15: "Momentum"!
The body of the mysterious man in black robe suddenly accelerated and rushed towards the crowd. He seemed to tear people's bodies into pieces with his bare hands. Soldiers died one after another wherever his hands passed.
"Impulse" is a war technique that uses the flow of life force to quickly close the distance with the enemy. It is very useful when raiding the enemy.
He killed the last people holding the light, causing the dock to fall into darkness.
The patrol team was thrown into chaos, and many of them couldn't control their shooting.
However, the area around the dock was dark, and the accuracy of the flintlock rifles was extremely poor, and many friendly casualties occurred in a short time.
"Don't shoot randomly!"
The old priest suddenly shouted loudly, and then there were bursts of exclamations, shouts, and screams.
The two enemy superhumans in the darkness were like two murderous black shadows, constantly shuttling back and forth among the patrol teams, reaping lives time and time again.
The horrifying situation caused everyone to suddenly become chaotic. Many patrol guards and family guards screamed and howled. People could not help but shoot indiscriminately, which caused an even more terrible chain reaction. Every ordinary person in the darkness was extremely nervous and frightened.
Irene and Byrne did not hesitate to huddle together with their family members and retreat towards safety, with no intention of engaging in battle at the first opportunity.
At the critical moment, Byrne still couldn't help thinking that no matter whether it was the patrol team or other extraordinary people, everyone's combat skills and command level were not good enough.
Coupled with the sudden gust of sea wind that seemed to be a mockery of fate, it led to the current chaotic situation. The Isaac family was almost doomed.
"If I have the opportunity in the future, I must find a way to focus on cultivating the comprehensive combat capabilities of my family members. The strength of extraordinary power depends on the timing of use and cooperation!"
