Chapter 77 025: Draw your swords and fight to the bitter end!
"Beep, beep, the black wizard is coming! The black wizard is coming!"
The shrill warning sounded throughout the deck, and everyone on the Apprentice became nervous.
"Hurry, hurry, get on deck, take your cross swords, and prepare for battle!"
"Alf, drive the apprentices back to the cabin, then guard here and don't let anyone in unless you die here. Everyone else, follow me!"
"Tell the goblins to pull out all the cannons and load all the ammunition!"
Luo Xi pulled Nicole to the deck. At this time, the deck was in complete chaos. The guard knights on the ship rushed out of the deck and began to set up defensive fortifications on the deck, forming formations, erecting shields, and turning magic cannons, making all preparations before the war.
"Knight Harlant!" Luo Xi found Harlant, the leader of the Knight Guards, and asked, "Where is Wizard Karen?"
Harlant said, "The wizard said he was going to prepare magic, so let us hold out for a while. He must let us guard the ship until his magic is finished."
Rosie frowned.
He nodded: "I will assist you."
After saying that, he stretched out his hand and grabbed the empty space. Then he saw a flash of light in the air and the Sword of Glory was caught in his hand.
Nicole also took out her magic wand from the space ring. It was also a two-handed staff made of lightning-struck wood. It was a 16th birthday gift from Luo Xi to her.
Harant didn't act pretentiously. He raised his right hand and hammered his left chest hard: "It's an honor to fight alongside you, Your Excellency."
Soon, the knights set up complete defensive fortifications on the deck along the west side of the ship. The knights were arranged in groups of three in a V-shaped formation on the deck. Some drew their bows, some raised their shields to fight, with great momentum.
All the gun windows on the left side of the hull were opened, and dark gun muzzles were pushed out from them, with cold air emitting from the long gun barrels.
Goblin artillery.
As one of the few intelligent species in the wizarding world, the goblins are very good at making various types of engineering equipment, and the goblin cannon in front of you is one of them.
This is a magical weapon that combines magic and artillery, similar to the artillery of the Middle Ages on Earth, but it is driven by magic stones instead of gunpowder, and what is stuffed inside is not an iron bullet mixed with iron filings and gunpowder, but a goblin bomb containing the element of fire.
Each shell from such a goblin cannon is equivalent to a mid- or high-level apprentice-level spell, and is extremely powerful.
Everything was ready and everyone waited on the deck.
Time seemed to have stopped, with only the occasional sound of the sea water hitting the hull echoing. The air seemed to be solidifying, and the rolling black clouds made it hard to breathe.
I don’t know how long it took, maybe just a moment, or maybe it seemed like a century.
A huge black sailing ship vaguely appeared on the sea level in the distance.
They appear to be a whole circle larger than the Apprentice. At first glance, the length of the hull is no less than a hundred meters, and the cabins at both ends are several stories high. They are covered with metal edging all over the body, looking majestic and extremely cold.
On the tall mast, a scarlet blood skull flag fluttered in the wind. A skeleton monkey stood on the lookout tower and jumped around, looking extremely strange.
"Hehehe, I'm going to eat their brains!"
“Kill! Kill!”
All kinds of strange and chilling noises came along the sea breeze, coming from the crew and sailors on the deck of the opposite sailboat.
They are all strange-looking guys, including humans, skeletons, gnolls, trolls, etc. It is a mixed army of various races, and they look like a mob.
However, no one present would underestimate the enemy, because everyone knows that what really determines the outcome of the war is not what they see, but the dark wizard whose whereabouts are still unknown!
“Hoohoo!”
The black ship broke through the wind and chased them from the side and behind at a speed far exceeding that of the Apprentice.
1000 meters.
500 meters.
100 meters.
30 meters!
In just a few breaths, the black ship had already caught up with their Apprentice and was sailing side by side with them. The row of goblin cannons also arranged on the side of the hull had begun to shine with magical brilliance.
At the same time, Knight Harrant also issued the first combat order to his own ships.
"fire!"
The next second, there was a deafening roar, and the artillery on both sides shook violently. Rows of goblin bombs quickly popped out of the gun barrels and headed straight towards each other.
"BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!"
The Apprentice's defensive magic circle was activated immediately, and a protective magic circle like a bubble film appeared on the outside of the hull, blocking all the flying goblin bombs.
"BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!"
However, just as the first round of attack ended, the second round of artillery fire followed, and the opponent's artillery ammunition seemed to be unlimited.
“Sizzle. Sizzle.”
The continuous attacks caused the Apprentice's protective magic circle to flicker and make crackling sounds from time to time. Although this defensive spell could withstand attacks above the wizard level, it was beginning to be overwhelmed by such intensive artillery attacks.
Although their artillery was also attacking the enemy non-stop, the enemy's defensive magic circle was obviously more advanced than theirs. If the bombardment continued, they would be the first to collapse.
Harant frowned and decisively ordered a subordinate: "Tell Raymondo to stop the boat and ram it, immediately!"
The subordinates ran quickly to the cockpit. After a while, the Apprentice, which had been running away at high speed since receiving the message from the Toot Bird, suddenly stopped. Then, the huge hull turned to the left, and then accelerated, crashing into the black ship next door.
"boom!!!"
There was a huge roar, and the energy neutralization produced by the interweaving of the defensive magic of both sides made the magic circle ineffective, and the two ships collided heavily with each other.
The violent collision caused the entire ship to shake violently. Some knights who were not well prepared were knocked to the ground, and the apprentices who were hiding in the cabin were thrown into the air and fell all over the place.
"Snap! Snap! Snap! Snap!"
There was no time to reorganize the equipment before crisp popping sounds were heard one after another. Long gangplanks had been placed at the connection between the two hulls, completely bridging the two hulls together.
"Ahaha! Take apart a skull and use it as a bowl!"
"Blood, fresh blood!"
"My dear little darlings, here I come, bringing your nightmares with me!"
The strange-looking lunatics on the black ship brandished swords, jumped onto the boarding board, or swung on ropes, and rushed onto the deck of the Apprentice from all directions.
"Zheng!" A loud sword sound rang out, and Harant raised the cross sword and issued a combat order.
"Draw your swords and fight to the bitter end!"
“Clang!”
There was a cold sound of metal intertwining, and the knights all drew their cross swords.
"Fight to the bitter end!"
The next second, the two waves of troops rushed towards each other and collided with each other, and a bloody close combat began!
Ah, Dragon Ball is gone too, my childhood was killed, ┭┮﹏┭┮, so sad.
