Warcraft Eternal Tree

Chapter 342 Prison Pirates

The blue sky was like washing, and the red sun in the east had just risen halfway, and the sun was shining obliquely, dyeing the sea surface a golden yellow.Dozens of seagulls were gliding in the air, calling a few times from time to time to show the good mood brought by this beautiful morning.

"Whoosh—" There was a sound of tearing the air, followed by a scream.The flock of seagulls was startled and flew around for a while, only to gather again in the distance after a long time.Taking a closer look, it turned out that a companion was missing.

At the same time, a seagull pierced by a crossbow bolt fell from the deck of a large ship on the sea with a bang, and was picked up by a big hand like a cattail fan.

"Grandma, don't let people get a good night's sleep early in the morning. Yell, yell, yell, see if I can still be noisy after I shoot you down." It was the owner of the big hand who spoke.I saw that this man was short and stout, but his clothes were disheveled. He was obviously a dwarf who just got up from the bed.

The dwarf held a crossbow in one hand and the poor seagull in the other, and muttered: "I was just woken up by these dead birds, and I haven't eaten breakfast yet, so I simply plucked the bird's feathers and made soup." Make a living." Apparently, it was the dwarf who shot one of the seagulls, causing the flock to scatter.

Others on deck saw the dwarf's sleepy look, but none of them cared.Instead, when the dwarves passed by, they all stood up straight and shouted hello.That's right, the irascible dwarf who shot down one of the seagulls early in the morning because he thought it was making noise for him to sleep was Thresh, the leader of the Prison Pirates.

Where Thresh is located is naturally the flagship of the Prison Pirates.Around this flagship, there are nearly two hundred warships, forming a huge fleet.Unlike other fleets, all warships and crew members in this fleet belong to the Prison Pirates, and there are no other pirates in it.

During the war against the Sea Clan, the Shadow Island organization required each fleet to consist of at least [-] warships in order to prevent the fleets from being too weak to be defeated one by one.And there are very few pirate groups in the entire Shadow Island organization with [-] ships, so generally speaking, each fleet is composed of several or even a dozen pirate groups.

But the Prison Pirates are different.First, as the third largest pirate group organized by the Shadow Island, the number of warships it owns is close to [-], plus the fellows who are originally from the same pirate group, the combat power they can display is better than that of several pirate groups combined together. Together the fleet is much stronger.

Secondly, the Prison Pirates don't fit in well, and there are not many pirates who have a good relationship with them. If they are forced to gather together, it may reduce their combat effectiveness.Therefore, the Prison Pirates wandered and fought as a fleet on their own in the waters where the Sea Clan was infested.

Of course, although the number of warships is less than [-], no one thinks that the Prison Pirates will be in danger.Secretly, the pirates actually felt that the Prison Pirates were stronger than the previous two pirates.After all, most of the Prison Pirates are aliens, and their average strength far exceeds that of ordinary human pirates.

It's strange to say that it has been more than half a month, and the prison pirates have not encountered the Sea Clan.Even Thresh, the head of the team, couldn't help thinking when he was cooking the seagulls, could it be that the previous few encounters with the Sea Clan were too aggressive, making the Sea Clan feel that our fleet is not easy to mess with?

It was precisely because he hadn't encountered the Sea Clan for more than half a month that Thresh, the group leader, was still sleeping when the sun had risen to mid-air, and was woken up by the cries of seagulls.

After eating and cleaning up the poor seagull in the cabin, Thresh returned to his rest room, put on a short captain's uniform, and came to the deck again.

Raising his head, the irascible dwarf shouted loudly to the watchman on the top of the mast: "Long ears, haven't you found those murlocs yet?"

The watchman Thresh has long ears turned into is an elf.Although he was very dissatisfied with the nickname Long Ears, he couldn't resist, so he had no choice but to answer Thresh angrily. "Of course we didn't find out. We haven't even seen the Sea Clan in the past half a month. Of course, today is no exception."

Although the flagship is in the center of the fleet, but because its mast is the tallest, and the eyesight of the elf lookout is much better than that of ordinary people, compared with the peripheral ships, if there are traces of the Sea Clan in the distance, it will be in the middle of the sea. The flagship in the middle of the fleet will be the first to spot it.

Thresh shrugged his shoulders indifferently.He also knew that the Sea Clan might have been avoiding his own fleet, and it was just a routine inquiry.Then, he called out the nicknames of the crew members on the deck again, then laughed loudly, and prepared to go back to the cabin.

However, at this moment, the elf watchman's trembling voice came from the mast: "What, what is that?!" Thresh's loose body suddenly tensed up, stopped laughing, and looked up at the mast. "Long ears, what happened?"

The elf watchman on the mast seemed not to hear Thresh's question, staring fixedly at the direction of the rising sun, motionless, muttering to himself.

Relying on the strength of the legendary dwarf berserker, Thresh could clearly hear the vague words in the mouth of the elf watchman. "How, how could we be finished"

Startled in his heart, Thresh was full of fighting spirit, and after a few vertical leaps, he came to the watchtower above the mast and stood beside the elf watchman.

Although the eyesight of dwarves is not as good as that of elves, their tyrannical strength more than makes up for it.Glancing around, Thresh quickly discovered the reason why the Elf Watchman was in a mess.Immediately, his face, which usually could not see the color change at all, turned white in a flash.

I saw the sea area around the slow-moving Prison Pirates in the distance, full of sparkling light.But in this wave of light, there are countless Sea Clan jumping non-stop.

That's right, the fleet of the Prison Pirates has been surrounded by countless sea tribes!Thresh was filled with disbelief.To encircle the prison pirates with nearly [-] warships in such a large sea area, how many sea clans would have to be mobilized!I'm afraid the Sea Clan didn't dispatch so many troops when they attacked Shadow Island, did they?
Although Thresh and the elf lookout beside him did not want to believe what they saw, the Sea Clan had indeed surrounded the Prison Pirates and gradually closed them in the middle.

Not long after, the watchmen on the periphery of the fleet also found countless sea tribes approaching, and the entire pirate group was in a commotion.Only then did Thresh recover from the shock, quickly jumped off the mast, hit the deck, and began to issue orders.

"Hurry up! The semaphore ordered the fleet to stop advancing! The ships in the outer circle put down all the magic mines carried on their respective ships! Remember, the explanation is all!" Turning around, he gave another order to another crew member: "Let all Magicians use liquid clairvoyance to ensure that the sea people will not attack from below. Don’t feel bad when it’s time to use the depth bomb, throw it hard for me!”

After taking quick countermeasures, Thresh climbed onto the mast again, and began to look around to estimate the approximate number of Sea Attackers and measure the strength of both sides.

Soon, he came to an unsurprising conclusion.Although the Prison Pirates have a large number of magic depth bombs and magic mines because they are one of the leaders of the Shadow Island organization, these alchemy items are far from enough in front of the endless sea people around the fleet.

Thresh even felt that the surrounding enemies could easily approach his warship as long as they sent out one-tenth of the low-level sea tribe to wade out the magic mines.The final conclusion is that no matter whether the enemy is willing to sacrifice part of it to go to the mines, the Prison Pirates are determined to be unable to resist so many sea people.

Turning his head, Thresh ordered the elf watchman who had just escaped from the state of despair: "Long ears, you go down first, and I will observe here. Hurry up and let the magician call other fleets to rescue us quickly! Time is running out!"

The elf watchman subconsciously stood up straight, answered "Yes!", then slid down the mast with a bang, and went to find the messenger magician on the flagship.

Thresh, who was standing on the mast, still looked around and frowned.Why did the Sea Clan suddenly dispatch so many troops to surround and kill their own fleet?Could it be that the Sea Clan is going to launch a counterattack against the Shadow Island organization?
