Amid all the surprised looks, only Zhong Rui perked up and asked, "What do you think?"
Su Han smiled slightly and uttered two words, "Fire attack."
Fire attack? Everyone was stunned.
Su Han went on to explain, "The system just made it clear that the pirates are sailing a medium-sized wooden sailing ship. Once the armor value of the sailing ship is reduced by 50%, the pirates will choose to retreat."
"In that case, we can burn the sailboats before the two sides come into contact, so that the armor value drops below 50%."
An Rongyue had to admit, "It's theoretically feasible."
"But it's difficult to do in practice." Yang Shu said coldly, "How do we set the enemy's wooden sailboat on fire? How long will it take to reduce the armor value by 50%? Will the pirates get on the cruise ship and kill us all before that?"
Su Han replied, "There is a lot of cooking oil in the kitchen. If you have a bow and arrow, you can wrap a cloth soaked in cooking oil on the arrow, light it on fire and shoot it. If the two ships are close, you can also throw torches at each other. If there is too much cooking oil, you can sprinkle it directly on the other ship."
After thinking for a while, Yang Shu shook his head again, "If the battle fails, we will have to leave the dungeon. This action is too risky and I cannot agree to it. I still think it is better to leave directly by boat."
"Abandoning the cruise ship and escaping on a small boat also has considerable risks." Zhong Rui said suddenly.
"What do you mean?" Yang Shu was stunned.
"I have seen sharks and other extremely aggressive carnivorous fish in the sea." Zhong Rui looked back calmly.
"You must be kidding, right? How come I have never seen it before?" Yang Shu was half-believing and half-doubting. He thought that Zhong Rui was deliberately scaring people in order to facilitate his companions' proposal.
Zhong Rui said confidently, "Haven't you been looking for a place to hide? Of course you won't notice it."
Yang Shu, "..."
He was speechless.
"Actually, I've seen it too." Zhang Yihe interrupted.
Now Yang Shu had nothing to say.
So Su Han continued to investigate, "Among the seven people present, how many have bows and arrows or crossbows?"
It was not so easy to stay and fight, as there were many items that needed to be prepared. If the materials were insufficient to fight the enemy, she would have no choice but to run away.
Zhang Yixiao took the initiative to say, "It's no problem for the three of us. We are all equipped with bows and arrows, and we have practiced specifically."
An Rongyue shook her head, "Without a bow and arrow, I can't shoot."
Yang Shu said helplessly, "I don't know how to do that either."
"It doesn't matter if you don't know how to do it. Some logistical work needs to be done by manpower." Then, Su Han said, "I have a slingshot. I can wrap marbles with oily cloth and shoot them at the enemy ship. The more flammable materials there are, the faster they burn, and the more the ship's armor value will drop."
The last one was Zhong Rui. He said, "I have bows and arrows, and crossbows. In addition..."
After hesitating for a moment, he said, "I bought ten packages of high-energy explosives. They will explode after being detonated, and they are also very likely to cause fires." For example, the fire in the study on the third floor.
Others, "..."
Yang Shu unconsciously moved away from Zhong Rui. He didn't want to get too close to such a ferocious creature.
The air suddenly became quiet.
Su Han cleared his throat to break the deadlock, "How about this, stay or leave, everyone makes their own choice."
"Majority rule?" Yang Shu muttered.
Su Han glanced at him and said calmly, "No, each of you choose your own path and be responsible for your own decision. No matter what choice you make in the end, I will stay anyway."
Yang Shu was choked and speechless.
Zhong Rui was the second to express his opinion, "I'll stay too."
Of these two guys, one helped catch her and prevent her from falling into the water, and the other exchanged medicine with her at the most difficult moment. Does she have any other choice? An Rongyue sighed lightly, and then her eyes became firm, "I will stay too."
The three members of the Moonfall Guild exchanged ideas in a low voice and quickly came to the conclusion, "There are only seven of us in total, so it's better for us to act together."
This means that they also stayed.
Yang Shu, "..."
He wanted to leave, but he felt uneasy about leaving alone.
Finally, Yang Shu said dejectedly, "I'll go with you."
"Very good." Su Han clapped his hands, "The situation is urgent, everyone, act quickly!"
Next, three members of the Yueluo Guild were responsible for carrying the cooking oil into the room, while the remaining four members dispersed to look for cloth.
When there were only two of them left, Su Han asked softly, "Did you really buy the high-energy explosives?"
Although I don't think my friends are the kind of people who would lie, sometimes they can't help but say things against their will due to the circumstances.
Unexpectedly, Zhong Rui replied calmly, "It's in the portable warehouse. Do you want to see it?"
Su Han laughed, "Is it true?"
"Really, I'm not kidding." Zhong Rui said seriously, "Firearms and explosives are powerful. You never know when they will come in handy, so of course we have to stock up."
More importantly, if anything happens to him, he must drag the guy who tricked him into it.
So, there are some people that you absolutely cannot provoke. If you insist on provoking them, the result will only be a lose-lose situation.
"Great." Su Han praised sincerely. In order to improve work efficiency, the two decided to act separately.
An hour later, the seven people met in room 428.
"The first and second floors were flooded, and the fabrics were soaked with water and can no longer be used. I searched the rooms on the third floor and brought back all the sheets, quilts, pillowcases, and tablecloths." An Rongyue was the first to explain the situation.
Yang Shu said, "I searched the rooms on the fourth floor, and all the fabrics that can be used are here."
"I found a lot of combustible materials." Su Han said as he took out the books and bottles of white wine he had searched the room.
Zhong Rui silently took out a few heavy wooden barrels and said, "They contain diesel. Since the cruise ship can't be operated anyway, I might as well use its fuel oil."
The room was silent.
The players thought that if they still couldn’t kill the pirates, it would be totally unfair!
Yang Shu was very puzzled. It was obviously a very difficult task, so why did they feel that they would definitely succeed after preparing for it? It must be an illusion.
"If there are no other questions, let's get started." Su Han greeted.
The seven people got busy. First, they cut the cloth into strips that were one finger wide and arm long, and then soaked all the strips in oil. Then they tied the oily strips to the arrows, and waited until they saw the pirate ship, then they lit the strips and launched the attack.
Everything is going on in an orderly manner.
Suddenly, Zhang Yihe spoke slowly, "Think about it carefully. I have a lot of charcoal stored in my portable warehouse. I can throw it over after lighting it."
"I brought a lot of cotton thread," An Rongyue added. "The cotton thread was soaked in oil and tied to the charcoal, which can speed up the burning after being lit."
"I also stockpiled charcoal and solid alcohol." Zhong Rui replied calmly.
Su Han used a dagger to cut the cloth and cut it into the appropriate length. He said calmly, "If you move quickly, there is still time to chop the wooden chairs and beds in the room into pieces."
Yang Shu, "..."
Why did you want to escape just now? They were obviously more brutal.
At 2 p.m., the system prompted, "It is expected that the pirates will have a direct conflict with the players in 1 hour."
The seven people sat down to rest, eat and drink, and gather their strength while waiting for the pirates to arrive.
At 3 pm, the pirate ship appeared in everyone's sight on time.
"Here it comes." Zhang Yixiu reminded.
Su Han silently observed the distance between the two sides, quickly calculating the data in her mind. When the distance between the two sides was just right, she shouted, "Attack!"
The next second, An Rongyue lit the cloth strips on many arrows.
"Swish, swish, swish." Zhang Yixiao, Zhang Yihe, Fatty, and Zhong Rui all picked up arrows and shot arrows. Some arrows hit the deck, and some were nailed to the side of the pirate ship, and then they all caught fire.
Su Han lit the books and poured white wine on them. When the fire got bigger, he threw the books out.
Yang Shu gritted his teeth, picked up the wooden barrel beside him, and poured the diesel towards the pirate ship!
"Fire!" There were screams on the pirate ship. Many figures shuttled back and forth on the ship, but it looked extremely messy.
"Keep going! Speed!" Su Han quickly gave the order, vowing to cripple the opponent in one go, and never give him a chance to turn the tables! Fortunately, the pirate ship did not seem to have any long-range attack methods, otherwise they would have to hurt each other.
Arrows rained down, and sparks were jumping everywhere on the wooden boat.
Yang Shu was committed to adding fuel to the fire, making the flames burn even more fiercely.
Soon, all the books were thrown away, and Su Han simply threw the liquor instead. The bottle was thrown over, and with a "bang", the glass bottle shattered, and the liquor soaked the wooden board. Once the flames met the liquor, they immediately burned like stimulants, crackling.
Within just a few minutes of the encounter, several parts of the pirate ship caught fire, and the fire kept getting bigger and bigger.
"Hasn't the armor value of the wooden ship dropped below 50%? Can anyone spare a look?" Arrows were shot one after another, but Zhong Rui did not dare to stop at all. He aimed and shot immediately - things would become very troublesome when the pirates freed their hands, after all, there was too big a difference in numbers.
"You guys keep shooting, I'll watch." Su Han threw out the last bottle of white wine, then looked at the wooden sailboat carefully.
But what they saw was, "Pirate ship, armor value 43%." In other words, they have successfully completed their goal.
Su Han's face lit up with joy, and he was about to share the good news with his friends, but the armor value of the pirate ship dropped rapidly, dropping by 1% every five or six seconds, and the rate of decline was accelerating.
After a moment of confusion, Su Han quickly realized that the ship was on fire, and the fire was getting bigger and bigger. If no one put out the fire, the pirate ship would automatically lose armor value. This was the same as when a player was infected with the negative state of "burning" and continued to lose health.
It's just that... the loss of armor value on the pirate ship is much more exciting than the loss of health on the player. After just one minute, the armor value dropped from 43% to below 30%.
Zhong Rui wondered why his friend didn't say anything. Just as he was about to ask, he saw the mast of the pirate ship collapse!
"There's a fire, there's a fire!" A man accidentally got sparks on his body while fighting a fire. No matter how he slapped the fire, he couldn't put it out. He had no choice but to jump into the water.
An Rongyue's expression was complicated, and she murmured to herself, "He must not know that the sea water is poisonous..."
During the storm, she was forced to drink seawater, which immediately caused her to become "poisoned." The pirates' initiative to jump into the sea to put out the fire was tantamount to suicide in her eyes.
