|->Chapter 223: Heavy Rain?" Step by step to the beach! ”

"None of these pirates can escape!"

Charles retracted his half-crouch position and stood upright, but his right hand was still gripping the repeating heavy crossbow. ，

He formed a defensive line with the dwarven warrior Todak, slowly walking from the fortress heights to the beach, while firing arrows with his crossbow at the pirates who had not yet run far.

Oster, Haunted Dreams, Fingertip Quicksand and others followed closely behind. As for Mahi, the Charr had already prepared a ranged weapon for her. The Sorcerer has a good long-range technique, and although Charles gave her a single-shot heavy crossbow, Mahi was able to kill a pirate with precision every time she pulled the trigger, allowing Charles to gain experience.

That's right.

Mahi's experience of killing pirates is something only Charles can share. Because Mahi is only a follower of him alone, and is not in the queue.

So, in the midst of invisibility, the Charles is the highest beneficiary of this sudden mission no matter what. But he wasn't quite satisfied, because the followers in "Dawn" don't have messy features like "automatic pickup", otherwise they would have been full if they pushed all the way over and looked back at the backpack space.

Charles's command had already been recognized in the previous battles.

At this time, he seemed to only speak to the other people in the queue, but he did not hide his voice, and the other players around him naturally listened to his words.

The next developments were entirely expected by the Shire. Led by his team, the other squads also let the warriors and barbarians hold shields in front, and then the other classes take out any type of ranged weapon and launch an orderly pursuit of the pirates.

Heavy rain limits the player's pursuit speed and also restricts the pirate's escape.

Most of the pirates were shot on the beach by the players. A few twenty or thirty pirates fled to the seashore. Delusional attempts to push the boat on the shore into the sea. Flee back to the pirate ship, but the howling waves overturned all the boats, and none of them survived.

Exhausted by the wind and waves, the pirates have just climbed ashore, but they are greeted by the cold and merciless swords of the players.

"You and your buddies fought off the Dreven pirates."

"Successfully defended the coastal fortress."

"You have performed well in the Surprise Mission, the 'Royal Navy' contribution value is +100, the Susar regional reputation is +20, and the personal general experience point is +8000."

The battle lasted about half an hour.

When prompted. Squads of other players scatter to fumble the pirate corpses on the beach and pick up the loot.

"8000 experience?" Charles raised an eyebrow, the experience reward for this Surprise Mission was surprisingly high. He looked at his career bar:

"Class: Civilian Lv. 10 (Max) / Priest Lv. 12 (46%)......"

The upgrade progress is steadily approaching 50%.

"Let's go, try our luck somewhere else, and try to brush up on a few more surprise missions." With a wave of his hand, Charles beckoned his team to return to the Highland fort, only to run into the previous captain head-on.

"Holy Presence!"

The middle-aged naval captain was covered in blood, his uniform had many holes, and the standard scimitar in his hand was also a little curled. But the Aboriginal professional still has an awe-inspiring air to him.

"The fortress I was stationed in had suffered heavy losses, and there were one and a half hundred and fifty naval soldiers beforehand. Now only half of them are left, and most of the artillery has to crouch in front of the gun position, constantly shelling the pirate ships on the sea, and cannot participate in the white-knuckle battle......"

The captain of the navy said in a heavy tone, "Please go to the dock area, the temporary headquarters of the royal navy, and tell General Angus and General Carrie that the No. 8 Highland Fort requests support...... I will lead the brave soldiers of LinkedIn to hold out until the last moment! ”

"Your Excellency, don't worry, I will bring your message." Charles replied solemnly.

The captain nodded, and limped into the fortress.

A blue quality messenger appears in the task bar of the squad, followed by the word "Unique" in parentheses.

"Is there a follow-up to this sudden mission?" Charles and Oster were surprised.

Instead of stopping and resting here, or lingering on the booty that might have been left on the pirate's corpse, Charles led the team back to the docks.

The temporary command of the 'Royal Navy' is not difficult to find.

However, in order to get close to the headquarters, you must first enter the military port area, but fortunately, there is a shortage of manpower during the war, and the navy is recruiting bounty warriors, both players and aboriginal professionals can freely enter and exit the military port.

"This is Command!"

However, Charles and his team were stopped in front of a small building by the guards.

"I have an urgent military situation for the Eighth Highland Fort!" Charles said in a deep voice, staring at the sharp spear in front of him with a calm face.

"Only one person can enter."

"You come with me."

The captain of the guard gave Charles a deep look, waved his hand for the soldiers to put down their spears and swords, and led Charles up the stairs to the largest conference room on the second floor.

The door to the conference room was not closed, and the sound of a fierce quarrel came from inside.

"Angus, we should send the most elite soldiers in the navy to form a special attack team to scuttle the pirates' main gunboats......"

A female general with a graceful figure and long brown hair slapped her hands heavily on the conference table and whispered: "Otherwise, in three days, the dock area will be completely in ruins, and all the defensive fortresses along the coastline will not be protected!" ”

"No way!"

Another young male general with a dark complexion and well-defined cheekbones shook his head in a deep voice and said, "The marshal said that we should make every effort to arrange defense, instead of sending the elite out to do those dangerous tasks that there is no return. Right now, the Navy is short on manpower, and to be honest, I don't believe that group of Bounty Warriors can make a difference in a critical time. ”

"The Blue Dragon Navy must rely on itself to wash away the shame and regain the glory!" The male general said sonorously.

Brown spoke, and the chest that had been violently undulating gradually subsided. She folded her arms and stood at the conference table, staring at the map of the sea on the table, silent.

"You are?"

The male general sensed that someone was outside the door, so he frowned and looked at Charles.

"General Angus, this Holy Presence has brought the military intelligence of the Eighth Highland Fortress." The captain of the guard leaned over.

"Highland Fort Eighth?" Angus's face changed slightly, and his eyes turned around on the map of the sea area on the conference table, and he locked on to the location of the fortress.

Heights 8 is located on the southeast side of the dock area, and if you look at the map, that high ground is actually located on the outward bulge of the Susal coastline, bordering the sea in all directions, and is the most dangerous, but very important, and can be said to be a bridgehead against the landing of the Dreven pirates.

"Not long ago, a group of pirates of more than 100 people was just repulsed."

"There are only more than seventy soldiers left in the fortress."

"Most of them are artillery."

Facing one of the admirals, Charles explained the situation unhurriedly and succinctly.

"Send an additional detachment of 100 people!"

"The Eighth Highland Fort must not be lost!"

Admiral Angus did not hesitate, grabbed the quill pen on the conference table, dipped it in some ink, and wrote down a dispatch letter, stamped it with his seal, and handed it to the captain of the guard.

Charles did not leave with the captain of the guard. (To be continued......) u
