Chapter 0063: Naval Battle
Chapter 0063 Naval Battle
The arrival of the Pisan merchant fleet clearly alarmed the two sides who were fighting. The looted merchant ships desperately called for help, the fish-men also suspended the offensive, and a group of troops began to assemble in the direction of the Pisa fleet, and many black spots flying in the sky began to move here.
Li Xun, who had just mastered a lot of spells, couldn't help but rub his hands. "Magical Insight" has allowed him to no longer have a faction category, as long as he meets the level requirements, he can master it smoothly. The "Clean" and "Deflection Missiles" of the Light system, and the "Earthquake" and "Phantom Legion" of the summoning system are all high-quality spells that are of great help, especially the "Phantom Legion", which is a favorite of mages and can make their spells lethal*2. The few battles since the envoy have pushed his experience to the point of nearly half of level 7, as long as he works hard, level 8 mages will be born, and level 4 troops in the cemetery will also be born, which makes Li Xun's murderous aura extremely high, and he can't wait to take over the endless "human" head in front of him alone.
In order to compete with Casas and Cialis for experience, Li Xun no longer hid his clumsiness, and with a brief muttering spell, a figure exactly like him appeared beside him. Casas and Cialis, who regarded this as an ordinary mirror technique, looked at each other strangely, and they couldn't understand why Li Xun wanted to summon this kind of mirror image that had no attack power, after all, the mirror technique was mostly used to disperse the opponent's attack density, and there would usually be 4-5 phantoms, which would be only one. Casas was well-informed, and first noticed the difference, the "phantom" summoned by Li Xun was too condensed, and there was no translucency of ordinary phantoms at all, as if he had completely copied himself. The battle was imminent, and Casas, who had no time to talk, had no choice but to bury his doubts in his heart and began the necessary step before the mage engaged—spell blessings.
Instead of heading straight for the battlefield, the smooth sailing Pisa fleet made a small arc and brushed the enemy's perimeter diagonally. As the distance approached, the ship's crossbow arrows began to attack, and a wave of more than a hundred arrows pierced into the fish-man team with a whistling sound. The fish-man's scales and slime were natural protection, and most of them could only inflict minor injuries except for attacks that penetrated the vital points, and a scream resembling a high-pitched baby cry could be heard from the fish-man. The bolts were followed by 4 bursting fireballs and 2 acid arrows.
"Boom" "Boom" ......
The continuous explosion of the bursting fireball scorched a large part of the sea, and the fish-man's grease-covered scales became the best ignitant, and in an instant, there were more than 50 human torches on the sea. The squeaky fish-men who were burned desperately scurried around and ignited more partners, and this magical flame would not be extinguished even if it sank into the sea, and for a time the battlefield was filled with the aroma of barbecue.
Casas and Cialis stared at the two Li Xun standing side by side in amazement, there was a bursting fireball just now that was sent by his phantom, it was not an illusion, but a real bursting fireball. Is it a level 7 projection technique? It's impossible, it's a level 7 spell! Inexplicable boy, wonder boy, how did he do it?
Li Xun smiled, and when the two of them were stunned, two more lightning chains were issued. The seawater acted as a good conductor, and nearly a dozen fish-man corpses surfaced on the surface of the sea near the landing site, covered in charred wounds. The swift spell blow caused the fishmen who were blocking the front to collapse in an instant, and they all burrowed under the water and never dared to show their heads again, and some of them began to try to approach the fleet from underwater.
In the distance, the angry screams of the fish-man priest rang out, and the black dots in the sky began to accelerate down, and the harpy came.
Compared with the dense fish-men, the harpy is very open, circling and shuttling around the fleet, and the opportunity is a high-speed sprint, the bronze eagle claws are scratching or scratching, and they never love to fight, and from time to time there are large and small painful snorts from the ship. After all, the sailors only wore rudimentary leather armor, their faces and arms could not be protected, and they were often caught with blood, and some of the unlucky ones were thrown off balance and fell into the water, and disappeared silently after a few struggles.
Compared to the terrifying mages and the mercenaries with hard armor, the sailors were the best targets, and for a while the ship's attacks were suppressed, and they could only struggle to resist the attacks from all directions. Basar was also draped all over his body, hiding among the mages and attacking fiercely with crossbow arrows, and every time he shot an arrow, he shouted at the flying monsters, and Li Xun was impressed that an ordinary person could do this.
The fish-men on the surface of the sea no longer lined up, and began to loom in the water to surround the fleet. The flotilla did not dare to stop, and maintained a high speed to continue to intersperse, ensuring that the enemy would not be blocked from advancing. The three mages are also in full swing, with blizzards, rings of ice, bursting fireballs, and colorful jets appearing one after another, and each spell will be accompanied by the fall of several harpies or injuries. Under the sweep of the three mages, the figures of the banshees in the sky became fewer and fewer, and the counterattacks of the fleet became sharper and sharper. Unprotected, Harpy Banshee will scream and fall into the sea even if a short spear thrown by a sailor grazes her body or wings. The remaining twenty or thirty harpys didn't dare to pounce directly, and could only scream helplessly and angrily in mid-air and curse these damn spoilers, fearing that the threat of the mage was too great, and they were about to run out, so they had to turn around and fly towards the nearest island.
The commander of the fleet is also experienced, and he took advantage of the ship's position to open up the gap between the fishman and the harpy, so that they could not cooperate with the water and air to attack at the same time, and when the harpy was defeated and retreated, the fishman would not have to worry. The tall hull was in constant motion, and the fish-man could not climb it with only the short limbs and rudimentary bone spears, so the rest was the carnival of the hunters, and the crossbow arrows screamed into the water, turning out a scarlet blood flower, and throwing the spears one by one, inevitably accompanied by a baby's scream.
Soon the fishmen were defeated, and the fishmen on the two merchant ships that had been intercepted jumped into the water and fled to the nest without looking back. After a brief rendezvous, the two merchant fleets began to chase as if angry, and after chasing for 5 miles, they turned around and returned to their original location under the constraints of the commander. For this ferocious massacre, the "pirates" on this road will have to be quiet for at least three or two months.
Twenty or thirty men were drawn out of the two merchant ships with the heaviest losses, and they began to extinguish the fires on the ships despite their injuries, and it seemed that they had been resisting in the cabin of the ship. After several of the leaders of the caravan in charge arrived on the flagship of the Pisa merchant fleet on a sampan, they bowed and expressed their gratitude, and were willing to give a certain percentage of the supplies in return, and Basar received them warmly. They were all businessmen who begged for a living on this route, and they were very familiar with each other, and after a while of greeting friends, they sat down together to discuss.
Instead of participating in these vulgar copper-smelling gatherings, the mages went straight back to their rooms to meditate and regain their mana. Li Xun looked at his level 7 plus 80% experience with regret and smiled bitterly, damn fishman, what are you running, my poor experience, my poor "human" head, where to find the remaining 20%?
Li Xun, who was helpless, had no choice but to lie quietly on the bed and silently contacted the three subordinates on each side of the next day. Skeletron has been nearly 200 miles deep into the Whispering Forest, and has found a den of ferocious bears, about one male and one female, two adult ferocious bears and three cubs, and is trying to find a way to take them; The butcher guards the Eternal Night City, and under Li Xun's instructions, he is forcing himself to learn the first-level spells of the dark system, with little effect, and every time he can't help but complain to Li Xun that he is a spell insulator; The ghost has entered the underground tunnel under the guidance of Zena, and is currently 170 meters underground, and is heading towards a settlement suspected of harboring kotao fishmen and underground gnomes, and further news will come in about 2 days.
Li Xun, who had just consumed a lot of mana and spirit, was temporarily unable to project his consciousness over. He also noticed that as Skeletron and the Ghost continued to advance, the interference in their place became more and more intense, and the soul connection that was easy to establish became weaker and weaker, as if they were gradually getting closer to a source of interference. Fortunately, the magical soul connection is only suppressed, not completely blocked, as long as Li Xun can maintain the best state of his mental power, it is still possible to break through the interference and break through the spatial barrier. So in order to maintain his condition, Li Xun also reduced the number of contacts with them.
After releasing 5 shadow killers to be on guard, Li Xun finally fell asleep.
