This sea lord is a bit strong

Chapter 179, A Knife in the Back, Successfully Captured the Ship, Mysterious Slave
On the goblin merchant ship, Ernesto looked back frequently and saw that Ji Chen's figure was still standing in place, with no intention of chasing him at all, so he immediately breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

Out of danger, I couldn't help but feel distressed when I was lucky. Looking at the empty No. 7 container, I wanted to cry without tears.

In addition to the loss of cargo, the goblin merchant ship also suffered considerable damage in the attack just now, and repairing it is a considerable expense.

Adding in the compensation for the dead goblin, Lin Lin Zong always lost at least one million gold coins this time, and almost emptied most of his income from cheating and abducting in the past few years.

The past few years have been in vain!

Thinking of this, Ernesto felt a bit of resentment in his heart. If it wasn't for the sudden appearance of that old guy named Gaspar Nuniz just now, he wouldn't be what he is now.

He definitely wouldn't dare to go back for revenge, but it's not impossible to swear a few words to get addicted.

Suddenly, Ernesto has a malevolent idea.

A sinister look flashed across his face.

Since the key fragment of Gloria's elf treasure house is now in Gaspar Nuniz's body, if this news is deliberately spread, won't the elves chase after him frantically?

No matter how powerful that Gaspar is, it is impossible to be stronger than the elves. Even if he does not die, he will definitely suffer a big loss.

Although it can't make up for the gold coins he lost, at least he can vent his anger well!

Thinking of this, Ernesto made up his mind immediately.

As soon as he returned to Giant Tooth City, he immediately implemented this plan in secret.

No one can escape unscathed after messing with a goblin!

while he was imagining
At this time, there was a sudden roar from the stern of the ship, and then the goblin merchant ship that was advancing at full speed suddenly slowed down, and Ernesto cursed at the speed of the sudden stop.

"Damn it, did you idiots destroy the merchant ship!? If you sell it, you won't be able to pay for it!!"

Soon, a goblin sailor hurried in and reported.

"Master Consul, two of the three propellers at the stern have stopped spinning. At present, the power of the merchant ship has dropped by 70%, which may be caused by the attack just now."

"It's possible? I don't need the word 'possible'. Hurry up and overhaul it, find out what you want, and then report to me immediately!"

"Yes!"

Seeing the goblin sailor rushing away, Ernesto felt inexplicably worried.

More than 20 minutes later, the goblin sailor ran back again: "The two propellers are completely damaged and can no longer be used. They can only be repaired after returning to the port. Now we can only turn on the two spare small propellers. Get back a third of your momentum."

Hearing this, Ernesto cursed angrily.

"Damn it, it's the goblin mother's, why suddenly there is a problem at this juncture, what a bad luck!"

"Then start the spare propeller immediately and return to the voyage as soon as possible!"

"Yes!"

"Wait!" Ernesto stopped the goblin sailor, thought for a while, and added, "The whole ship has raised its alert level, and all the goblins who are still alive cheer me up!"

Instinctively, Ernesto felt something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.

Looking out at the dark sea outside through the leaky window frame, I felt a sense of uneasiness in my heart.

The alchemy cannon that he was so proud of in the past could not bring him any sense of security at this time. The sea was so dark that it could not cast a ray of light, like the mouth of a giant beast, trying to devour them.

In an abyss-like night, the goblin merchant ship sailed slowly on the sea, the few remaining high beams scanning the surroundings uneasily, and the goblin sailor standing on the watchtower stared wide-eyed at the surroundings.

However, lights and eyes can patrol above the sea surface, but cannot penetrate below the sea surface.

Goblin Merchant Ship.

A shrill siren suddenly sounded in the sonar detection room.

"Warning! There are a large number of unknown objects approaching underwater! Suspected enemies!!"

"The speed is very fast, it is less than five kilometers away from us!!"

The news quickly spread to the cab.

"What? Are you sure you read it right?" Ernesto, who had always felt something was wrong, jumped up from his chair when he heard it, and asked.

"Master Consul, we are sure that we are not mistaken. The formation of these unknown objects that are approaching quickly is very neat. They are definitely not ordinary sea monsters or schools of fish! They must be organized and orderly!"

"There are thousands of them, densely packed, and they have already surrounded us. Our power is damaged and we cannot get out of the encirclement in time!" the goblin sailor said in panic.

"Damn it, I knew something bad was going to happen!" Ernesto was furious, "Turn on the main guns, secondary guns, and depth alchemy bombs at once! As soon as they get close, fire them up and blow me up all those damn things die!"

"Let them know how powerful goblin technology is!!!"

"Follow orders!!"

Soon, the four main guns with exaggerated calibers on the deck slowly turned their bases, and at the same time, the thick barrels were slowly raised.

After adjusting all the shooting parameters, along with white smoke and a tongue of flame, alchemy shells burst out from the gun barrel, drawing arcs in mid-air and shooting towards the distance.

The secondary guns on both sides of the ship also aimed at their targets, and fired shells of different sizes, which burst out like ordinary rainstorms.

The shells like rain flowers crashed into the sea, blasting the surrounding sea water into the sky, forming water columns tens of meters high.

The high beams shone on the place where the shell exploded, and after the water splashed down, there were no corpse fragments, blood, etc. as imagined floating on the surface.

No matter how the shell exploded, nothing came up, just pieces of foam.

On the alchemy sonar, none of the thousands of targets had been reduced. They didn't even stop for a second due to the violent shelling, and they were still approaching quickly.

In the blink of an eye, the distance between the two was shortened to less than 1000 meters.

"Damn! How can there be such a fast and sensitive creature!"

Looking at the thousands of red dots coming from all directions on the screen, Ernesto gritted his teeth unwillingly and said, "Get the deep water alchemy bomb ready, I don't believe I can't blow up these ghost things!"

The best throwing distance for deep water alchemy bombs is 50-150 meters.

On both sides of the goblin merchant ship, the goblin sailors have set up the projection devices one by one. As long as the enemy has entered the projection distance, they will immediately project these bombs that weigh several people.

No creature can survive such a bomb explosion intact.

Even if the giant dragon is here, if it resists close to the flesh, it will explode with flesh and blood!
The enemy was 900 meters away from the merchant ship.

At 700 meters, all alchemy cannons stopped firing to stabilize the merchant ship.

At 500 meters, Ernesto was staring at the alchemy sonar, sweating on his back.

At 300 meters, all the goblins held their breath.

After 200 meters, the goblins slowly grasped the projection lever.

150 m.

"Prepare!"

When the distance between the two was only more than a hundred meters, Ernesto shouted with a grim face: "Project!"

Just as the goblin was about to press the release lever, a burst of singing suddenly came from a distance.

In such a quiet night, it spread far, far away, permeating every place.

Ernesto was taken aback for a moment, seeing that the goblins in charge of the delivery had stopped, and said furiously for no reason.

"What are you doing! Hurry up and throw the bomb out!?"

But these goblins turned a deaf ear, and even let go of the handle of the lever, and stood there blankly.

Seeing this scene, Ernesto's anger rose even more, he grabbed a goblin angrily, grabbed his collar and cursed angrily.

"What the hell is going on with you guys? Why don't you drop a bomb! Are you trying to kill me?"

But soon, he saw that the eyes of these goblins were very dull, as if they had lost their souls.

Even if he was picked up, he remained indifferent like a puppet.

At this time, Ernesto realized something was wrong, just when he was about to loosen the goblin's collar.

With a pop, an unbelievable expression appeared on his face, and he lowered his head slowly.

The goblin drove the dagger deep into his belly, up to the hilt.

puff~
The dagger was pulled out and stabbed in again.

Dozens of times in succession, until Ernesto died completely, lying in a pool of blood.

at the last moment of life.

He finally realized that it was the reason for the singing.

"The singing is really nice"

With no obstructions, the army that quickly passed through the water quickly came to the side of the ship and successfully boarded the ship with the help of the traitorous goblins.

The goblins who were still alive on the ship saw the extremely ferocious alien fighters boarding the ship, and they also surrendered one by one, showing no intention of resisting at all.

Soon, a figure boarded the ship greeted by many soldiers.

As soon as Ji Chen came up, he happened to see Ernesto lying on the deck. At this time, the goblin businessman, who was alive and well half a day ago, was already lying in a pool of blood, lifeless.

There was still an incredulous expression on his face.

I'm afraid he didn't think that he didn't die by the enemy's sword, but by his own hands.

"My lord, what should we do with the remaining goblins? Do we have to get rid of them all?"

Ji Chen looked at a large group of goblins gathered on the deck, smiled and shook his head, "These goblins are still valuable enough, we still need them to teach us how to operate this goblin merchant ship."

"understand!"

Hearing this, the trembling goblins finally breathed a sigh of relief, at least they won't die now.

Ignoring the group of goblins, Ji Chen began to look around.

He had only seen the appearance in the port before, but he hadn't boarded the ship to see it.

This goblin merchant ship shows the goblin's superb alchemy technology everywhere. The huge gears, metal and hinges reveal a strong industrial punk flavor.

The giant cannon turrets standing on the deck made Ji Chen even more relaxed and happy. He is a fan of giant ship cannonism!
Big is beautiful, more is beautiful!
The bigger the caliber, the harder the fist!
This powerful iron-clad ship, full of alchemy cannons of various calibers, unintentionally hit his itchy spot.

If he used ordinary means to attack forcefully, even with all his current warships on the pad, it might not be able to cause obvious damage to this goblin merchant ship.

There is an insurmountable technological gap between wooden sailboats and ironclad ships.

The gap between the two is like the gap between a white hero and a purple hero. A purple hero can easily beat dozens of white heroes.

With his strength, he can defeat it, but the result is that the majestic spell energy will destroy it, which goes against his original idea of ​​wanting to get the ship as complete as possible.

All Ji Chen had already planned. He had previously disguised himself as an old man who came to seek revenge. During the attack, he would destroy its propeller and make it lose most of its power. This would allow Alice and the others to catch up and then seize it. Boat.

The end result was ideal, not only was the ship well preserved, but the goblins were left with parts that could be used to teach the Sea Crown how to drive and use it.

"My lord, we found the cargo hold on the ship! There are a lot of things stored in it!"

At this time, Anina stood at an entrance, waved and said.

Ji Chen's eyes lit up.

Ernesto has been a businessman for so long, it can be said that he is fat and oily, and naturally it is not only the things he showed to Ji Chen.

Following Anina, she walked down the cabin, turned around in the metal passage, passed through more than a dozen metal gates, and came to a rather spacious cabin, about the size of two basketball courts.

The four sides are hard metal, and the top is a metal door that can be opened. This should be Ernesto, the storage location of the lifted cargo box.

Cartons with numbers written on them were fixed on the floor, among which was No. 7, which was empty.

A cursory look.

There are more than a dozen of these large and small cargo boxes.

Ji Chen didn't intend to open them here, and it wouldn't be too late to open them after returning to the Crown of the Ocean.

Then under the lead of a goblin captive.

They came to another cargo hold at the stern. This cargo hold was more spacious and huge, and it was a place to store some general cargo.

In addition to buying and selling rare things, goblins will also buy and sell some common goods like ordinary merchants.

Because this time is the reason for the return voyage, a large amount of goods are stored here, and they are placed in wooden crates of the same size.

The wooden crates were stacked one on top of the other, filling the entire cargo hold to the brim.

Ji Chen turned to ask the goblin who led the way.

"What is this shipment?"

The goblin who was asked trembled suddenly, and said with a panicked expression.

"My lord, part of this batch of goods is high-grade silk and fabrics, which are specially purchased by the consul, and are intended to be sold to human nobles in the Western Continent. The other part is fine wine from the Eastern Continent, which is also sold to human nobles. They are very happy. Passionate about those two things.”

Liquor is something that can be sold in that place.

It's a pity that the place of the crown of the ocean is not a good place for wine making, nor does it have the talents and infrastructure for wine making,

"In addition to these, there are some special goods, slaves."

Hearing this, Ji Chen's expression froze.

"Where is it, show me."

"In order to prevent port inspection and escape, they hid in a dark room connected to this cargo hold."

Guided by the goblin, Ji Chen and the others came to a metal wall behind the cargo hold. After removing a row of heavy wooden crates, they saw a metal door locked with iron chains.

"Because this batch of slaves is special and of high value, only the consul has the key."

Kara -

I saw that Anina broke the chain directly with the big sword.

Goblin: "."

Under his instruction, two naga berserkers stepped forward and pushed open the metal door from left to right, revealing the environment inside.

When they saw the slaves imprisoned in the cage, even Alice and Anina couldn't help showing expressions of surprise.

Ji Chen looked at them, his eyes widened.

Translate for him what is a surprise!
