Chapter 234: Super Giant Water Elemental Giant (Please subscribe, please vote)
Flower collar,
East coastline, estuary of the Ruhr River.
There is a prosperous town here, with scattered buildings extending to the end of the sight.
Although the planning is not very good, the roads are uneven and narrow, and many places have wooden houses. There are not too many illegal constructions.
Not to mention the sewer and drainage systems.
But you can't deny that there are a lot of people here!
Because there were more people, all kinds of shops, hotels, taverns, blacksmith shops, and warehouses appeared everywhere.
The reason why there are so many people is because there is a busy port here.
There are so many ships coming and going every day that the porters at the dock have almost endless work to do.
Not far to the north of the pier, there is a large vacant area with a tall tower standing quietly.
In a place where every inch of land is valuable, this is the quietest and cleanest place.
The Mage Tower is undoubtedly a deterrent to mortals. No matter who comes here, they will restrain their rudeness.
Every night, the lights here light up, like an oversized crystal chandelier, and the brilliant light guides ships on the sea.
This is Ms. Palacios's wizard tower, which also serves as a lighthouse.
This is the most important port in the entire Norman Duchy, without a doubt.
This is Siren Harbor!
However, Siren Port, which has been prosperous for decades, has become very quiet in recent times.
Because of an order from Loyi, there are too few ships going out to sea here, and the Lion Family’s fleet has also shrunk as much as possible and no longer transports cargo.
Just this one point alone has caused countless people to lose their money!
In other words, a soup kitchen was set up in Siren Harbor to distribute food for free, otherwise the working porters would have caused trouble.
Of course, the main reason why they are so quiet is that it is indeed unsafe outside.
First, the pirates came ashore, and the villages around Siren Harbor suffered. Many villages were attacked and massacred, and the bodies were impaled on crosses and placed on the roadside.
Its cruel methods really scared many people!
Then there are those ships that are bold enough not to obey the ban and insist on going out to sea.
The highest commander of Siren Port, the Grand Knight Thor Dean, didn't care, but the news he received was not good.
It seems that outside the Siren Port, the vast sea area is surrounded by pirates, and almost no cargo ship can escape.
With so many ships being robbed, naturally, no ship owner dared to go out to sea.
Until today, today, the sea is calm and the weather is as bright as any other day.
But above the sea, at the end of the sight, pirate ships were cutting through the waves and approaching rapidly.
And in front of all the pirate ships, a cloud of fog continued to spread, like a terrifying monster hiding in the clouds, spying on the Siren Port.
Ding ding ding ding!
There were naturally lookouts in the Siren Port, and the bronze bell for the message was quickly rung. The shrill bell sounded rapid and panicked, as if warning everyone that pirates were attacking.
However, in the Siren Harbor, many people were stunned!
Because of the height and the obstruction of the ships, naturally not everyone can see the pirate ships on the sea.
In addition, this is the Siren Port, and no pirate has dared to come here for decades.
So, most people didn't react.
Until some older people found relevant memories in their minds and couldn't help but shout out.
'Pirates are coming', 'Pirates are coming', this aroused everyone's fear!
There was chaos in the Siren Harbor!
However, this chaos did not last long, as teams of knights led by militia began to maintain order.
More importantly, the Mage Tower is lit up in broad daylight!
It means exactly what it says. Countless magical powers are stimulated and diffused outward in circles, causing the elemental forces to become restless.
From a distance, it seemed as if there were countless magic patterns surrounding it, emitting a brilliant and dazzling light, and there was also a mysterious chanting sound that resounded throughout the Siren Harbor.
Everyone knew that this was a curse cast by the Scourge Mage, Ms. Palacios.
Everyone was eagerly waiting, hoping for some changes that would repel the invading pirates.
However, they waited for a long, long time, but in the end they did not see any changes.
In other words, only a small number of people standing on a high position can see the changes.
Then I saw that the waves were becoming more and more frequent, surging out in waves.
As the waves rise and fall, the docked ships also rise and fall unsteadily.
The first to notice the abnormality were the crew members living on the ship. They were familiar with the ups and downs of the ship and knew the force involved.
Seeing that the ship was tilting more and more, they immediately knew that something was wrong and climbed onto the deck at the urging of the bronze bell.
Then, they saw an astonishing scene!
Then, driven by a mysterious force, the sea suddenly rushed outward, and waves formed little by little.
With the impact of wave after wave, the water continued to pile up until it formed a huge wave more than ten meters high, which crashed down.
Pirate ships have always been designed to be light and fast, so in terms of sturdiness, they are naturally far inferior to other ships.
Under the waves, a group of pirates screamed in fear. Those who reacted quickly adjusted the direction under the captain's command and controlled the angle of the ship to cut through the waves.
But there are always one or two who react slowly and fail to control the situation in time, and are smashed into pieces by the waves!
Countless pirates fell into the water and could only struggle there. Those who had the means could try to save themselves, but most of them were thrown into the water by the waves and became food for fish.
Of course, this is just the first big wave, and there will be even higher waves to come.
Most pirate ships wisely chose to turn around, change direction at the critical moment, and then move forward with the tide of the waves.
Although the journey was a bit bumpy and many unlucky people died miserably, most of the pirate ships managed to escape.
But, it was carried further away by the waves!
Of course, there are also those with more stubborn tempers, such as the magic ship of the Mist Pirates.
The opened magic barrier completely enveloped the entire ship, and the spreading mist turned into a snarling octopus.
Every wave of the tentacle can smash a wave, and it looks extremely ferocious when viewed from a distance.
But these waves are not vegetarians either!
The sea was surging and rolling, and a monster with a human upper body and azure blue body made entirely of sea water rushed up.
He held the trident in his hand and roared silently. Every time he swung it, the waves would surge forward like his hands.
Just as the fog was about to be completely dispersed, the magic ship turned around and quickly sailed away with the help of the waves.
And when this magic ship chose to retreat, no blind pirates dared to stay here anymore.
So, the pirates who came in a hurry left as if they were escaping.
When the pirates disappeared from sight, the huge sea giant slowly sank into the sea and disappeared.
At this point, even the turbulence of the sea level was extremely small, leaving only a group of crew members on the ship staring at the scene in amazement.
It was not until a moment later that they reacted and let out thunderous cheers, as if cheering for the victory of Siren Port.
at the same time,
On the top floor of the Wizard Tower, Ms. Palacios finished the spell, sat down on the ground in a very ungraceful manner, and took out the potion and poured it into her mouth.
Beneath her, the huge magic circle was still glowing, but then it weakened at a speed visible to the naked eye and returned to calm.
Outside the magic circle, an elderly knight stood quietly.
His face was deeply wrinkled and his hair was a mixture of black and white, typical features of an old man, but below the neck he had the standard knight's configuration.
A broad chest, strong muscles, and a pair of big hands with distinct joints, like steel.
This person is one of the three great knights of the Lion Knights and the oldest extraordinary knight in the Flower Territory, Grand Knight Thor Dean.
He looked at Ms. Palacios with a hint of worry in his eyes. When he saw the spell stop, he dared to speak: "Ma'am, are you okay?"
Ms. Palacios shook her head and paused for a moment before saying, "My magic power is a little low. It's mainly because summoning the super-large water elemental giant consumed too much magic power. I'll be fine after a rest!"
As she said this, she took a breath for a moment, finally calmed down, stood up, straightened her robes, and became the intellectual and calm Scourge Mage again.
She looked at Grand Knight Thor and said, "This is the only time. I'm afraid these pirates won't dare to cause trouble in Siren Harbor anymore.
However, if they land somewhere else, cut off the roads, and start burning, killing, and looting everywhere, I will be helpless!"
Knight Commander Thor waved his hand and said, "Pirates are only a threat on board the ship. Once ashore, they are nothing but weaklings in the face of the knights.
That means they don't have enough troops, otherwise, I will definitely make sure they never return."
After a pause, he continued, "At this stage, as long as this Siren Port is not lost, I can lead the troops outside and ensure the autumn harvest."
At this point, he hesitated again: "But if this continues, the reputation that Siren Port has built up over decades will be ruined!
By then, the loss will be too great!"
Palacios raised his head slightly, looking at Grand Knight Thor with a pair of gentle eyes, a faint smile on his lips: "We are also acquaintances. If you have anything to say, can you be more frank?"
Thor smiled awkwardly, a hint of hesitation showing on his face, but he still said, "I just want to ask, is that one really reliable?"
He didn't say who it was, but Ms. Palacios certainly knew.
But she didn't answer immediately. Instead, she tilted her head seriously and thought about it.
Then he said: "I don't know the outcome of this battle, and I don't know what the future of Flower Territory will be.
The entry of magical machinery has indeed touched upon some people's forbidden areas.
However, even with two fourth-order natural disasters already dead, the three of us still resolutely chose to follow this one. Doesn't that already explain a lot?"
After a pause, she continued, "In fact, I think that if you throw away the shackles of flowers and just manage the existing industries, it will be enough for that person to reach a high position.
That’s the height I want to reach!”
"So, Great Knight Commander Thor, my advice to you is to do your part well.
Then, watch quietly and wait quietly!"
The second update is here, the third will be later!
