By daybreak, Henry had known through the prophetic spell that his fleet was followed by three large pirate ships, well-armed and armed with giant crossbows on board. It seems that the pirate did not plan to attack for the time being, so he told the crew to go to rest first, and asked the people on the lookout to inform his ships to go to bed with bunting. It's a long-term chase that could last a few days or even a week. Since there are also mages on the other party's ship, he doesn't plan to kill them for the time being, this is a hunt, but he doesn't know who is the prey and who is the hunter. Two days passed in this strange atmosphere. On the third day, the ships behind began to speed up suddenly, and after a morning of rapid pursuit, the pirates' ships could now be seen with the naked eye. Standing at the stern, Henry took a closer look and saw that their ship was at least twice as large as his own sword. This is almost the limit of the wooden sailing ships of the entire continent, and according to his estimates, the average carrying capacity of these three ships is definitely more than two thousand tons.

Captain Hawk stared nervously at the giant ship behind him, his forehead began to sweat, and he said to Henry, "Is there anything the boss can do?" At this rate, we'll be caught up in another two hours. They have at least fifteen hundred men, and the gang jumpers have no advantage at all with our numbers. Henry looked at it and said, "Don't worry, my captain, I will personally lead the team to kill them before they catch up." But wait a little longer, and wait until the moment when they are about to catch up is the best time to launch a surprise attack. The leader of the barbarians came with fourteen of his kindred and said to Henry, "My lord, please take us with you when you raid later." The blood of the warriors in my body has begun to boil, and I will rush to shred up the miscellaneous pieces at the slightest command. Seeing that the barbarian who was eager to try, Vaughn, the half-orc, also followed with an axe and said, "Hehe! Boss, please bring me with you, I haven't had a good fight in a long time. ”

Hawke looked at the eager fellows with some surprise, and suddenly felt that he was not nervous at all, he smiled, took out his pipe, put a little tobacco, lit it and took a puff, and said, "Then I wish you a triumphant return, remember not to destroy their ship too much." I'm ready to accept it. Henry looked at the captain in surprise, but he didn't expect him to take the lead in making a joke. Asembo touched his bald head and smiled and said to the captain, "Don't worry, these weak fellows don't deserve such a good ship." I'll show them the bravery of the Karut warriors, and you'll be watching right here. Henry took out some invisibility potions from the dimensional pouch and said, "If you want to go on a raid with me for a while, you have to drink this for a while, its effect can keep you invisible for a while." After a round of attacks, it loses its effect. I know your attitude towards magic, but I don't think you mind potions, right? The barbarians smiled and said they were not rejecting the potion, and sixteen vials of potion were distributed to everyone.

Everyone who was assaulted by the sea breeze was ready, and just waited for the order to drink the potion and jump into the sea. Henry quietly looked at the approaching ship, thinking about how to deal with the mages on board. An hour later he said, "It's time!" Everyone drank the invisibility potion and began to go to the sea, Amy, you blessed the stealth and went to the rear of the enemy ship to tie the rope. The others waited for me to launch the first attack and then climbed up the rope, and the one who climbed up first hid himself and waited for everyone to arrive before attacking. After saying that, he began to bless himself with spells, Iron Skin, Protective Ranged Weapons, Hazy Spells, Secondary Spells Void Enchantments, Secondary Spell Reversal, and Protective Flames Blessing a Flying Technique. Just as he blessed the spell, sixteen warriors had already drunk the invisibility potion and jumped into the sea to swim towards the enemy ship, and Amy also blessed herself with a stealth spell and activated a flying scroll to start her mission.

After Henry saw everyone start to act, he took off directly into the air and flew to the flagship behind. When he was still about a hundred meters away from the enemy ship, a giant crossbow arrow was fired and crashed directly into the energy force field, and the attack was neutralized by the protective ranged weapon. This made him suddenly break out in a cold sweat, if he fired again, it is estimated that the protection of long-range weapons will not be able to stop. He had already seen the sailors on the opposite ship begin to pull the winch again to prepare for the second arrow, and hurriedly began to descend and fly close to the surface of the sea to avoid the angle of fire from the crossbows guarding the city. Amy secretly tied a rope to the stern of the boat while someone was attracting attention, and threw the other end into the sea. After receiving the rope, the underwater warriors began to climb up one after another. By this time Henry had dodged the second arrow and flew above the ship, where he was standing on the mast to release an ice storm. A large area of magical hail hit the sailors on the entire deck, and most of them were directly crushed by the ice, and many people were knocked unconscious. After breaking up the crew, he began to search for the mage, and only by finding the mage could he quickly resolve the battle.

The two ships next to them quickly leaned over when they saw that the flagship was under attack, threw out the hook and pulled hard. Soon the three ships were merged, and a large number of pirates on either side jumped onto the ship along the cables. The stern warriors had already assembled, and they drew their weapons and came to the enemy's back without saying a word. With a roar of barbarians, the assault began. The orcs held two battle axes and made a big hole in the middle of the crowd, and everyone who was cut down was basically cut in two. He shouted excitedly, "Come on, haha!" Let me enjoy the battle. Asembo struck a pirate away with his hammer and said, "Man! Do you want to play with me? Bet on our celebration tonight. Vaughn grinned and bared his fangs, "Then you're going to lose, you know that I have two axes and you only have a warhammer." So saying, he cut off the heads of two pirates with an axe.

Asembu took one look and cursed, "Damn! You're a foul. I hate treacherous orcs. The orc Ha Lu Ha Da replied with a smile: "Your wine today is mine, thank you again for your generosity." "After the sorceress blessed the stone skin, she took advantage of the chaos to hide behind the mast and kept casting intimidation spells on the gathered pirates, which directly led to the confusion of some pirates who were already caught off guard because of the sneak attack. They were slashed like a swarm of headless flies by the murderous orcs and barbarians behind them. After Henry stood on a high place and cast another ice storm, the pirates' morale collapsed. They desperately tried to escape back to their ships, but most of them were squeezed out to sea. The barbarians also took advantage of the situation and divided into two teams to chase after them. At this time, a third-level spell "Flame Arrow" shot at Henry, and was reversed and bounced back by the second-level spell at the moment it approached his body. A scream was heard from the cabin, and Henry chased after him when he noticed a mage attacking. When I walked into the cabin, I saw a mage holding a crystal ball lying on the ground, his chest scorched and rolling on the ground in pain. It seems that he was not lightly injured by his own spells. Henry walked up and trampled on one of his arms and asked, "Who are you?" Did Kurzer send you? The mage endured the pain and said, "Don't kill me!" I only accepted the hire temporarily. I am a member of the Arcane Brotherhood, and I am willing to trade all my possessions for my life. ”

Henry then interrogated the mage in detail and found the symbol belonging to the Arcane Brotherhood on him. Obviously, this mage who belonged to the Brotherhood did not have any temperament, and he had not yet been punished. He was temporarily hired by Kurzer to come and sabotage Baram's business. As for the Arcane Brotherhood, they don't care what the Lords are trying to do, so they don't mind the involvement of internal members in such actions. Knowing the specifics, Henry confiscated all of the mage's possessions, and chopped off his head. He wasn't stupid enough to believe the promise of a member of the Arcane Brotherhood, and the first thing these evil mages would do when they returned was to find their accomplices to come back for revenge. Even if you can't take revenge for the time being, write down your name and find a way to get revenge on your relatives and friends. After a naval battle, the number of the fleet increased again, and now Admiral Hawk had eight ships. In the evening, a celebration was held aboard the Sword, and those involved in the raid were rewarded with a large amount of gold and unlimited drinks, and Asembo was saddened as he ate the barbecue and lost his wine to Vaughn. Henry sat quietly in the cabin and thought to himself that this time Kurzer could be said to be bleeding profusely, and Balam would definitely not let him get better. However, killing the members of the Arcane Brotherhood is a big problem, and the mages of these evil factions will surely get revenge.

The dozen days of sailing passed quickly, and after rounding the storm area, Henry and his party returned to the Angome Islands. After putting down the boat, Henry and Amy paddled ashore on the dock, where Robert and the others were already there. They had already seen the huge fleet come to a halt in the harbor. The dwarf gave Henry a hug and said, "Welcome back, how are things going well?" Henry smiled and said, "It's not going well, and it can be said that the situation is terrible." Did you see the ships, but there were four smaller ones that we met on the way to the pirates. Look at the three big ones in the back, they were sent by a great commander of Luskan on our way back to hunt us down. Cagan laughed and said, "But the worst result is that they sent you a fleet, and I really don't know whether I should be happy for you or sorry for you." Robert also came over and saluted Henry, saying, "Welcome back, master, and I will return this place to you in its entirety." While you're away, Cagan found a huge vein of iron ore in the forest, and found a small room near where an elven mage lived in his not very sanity. Henry patted him on the shoulder and said, "You guys did a good job, I'll take care of that mage myself." This time we brought back more than 10,000 slaves, and the initial construction of the territory is about to begin. Later you go and tell the captain to send the slaves ashore. When Robert heard the command, he turned and went to tell Hawke to let the slaves ashore.
