Chapter 48: Naval battle and return to the island

   At dawn, Henry had known through prophecy spells that his fleet was following three large pirate ships, they were well-equipped and had a city-defending crossbow on board. It seems that the pirates did not intend to attack for the time being. He asked the crew to rest first and asked the people on the observation tower to use colored flags to inform his ships to go to sleep. This is a long-term chase battle, which may last for several days or even a week. Since the opponent's ship also has a mage, he does not intend to kill him for the time being. This is a hunting, but I don't know who is the prey and who is the hunter. Two days passed in this weird atmosphere. On the third day, the ships behind began to accelerate suddenly, and after a whole morning of fast pursuit, the pirates’ ships could now be seen with the naked eye. Henry stood at the stern and observed carefully and found that their ship was at least about twice the size of his own Sword. This is almost the limit of the wooden sailing ship on the entire continent. According to his estimation, the average deadweight of these three ships is definitely more than two thousand tons.

Captain Hawke stared nervously at the forehead of the huge ship behind and began to sweat. He said to Henry, "Is there anything the boss can do? We will be overtaken in two hours at this rate. They are at least one thousand five hundred. People, we have no advantage in the number of people." Henry looked at it and said, "Don't worry about my captain. Before they catch up, I will personally lead the team to kill them. But you have to. Wait a while, and wait until the moment they are about to catch up is the best time to launch a raid." The barbarian leader came with fourteen of his clan and said to Henry: "My lord, please be sure to make a raid. Take us. The blood of the soldiers in my body has already started to boil. I just need to give an order to rush up to shred the shards." Seeing the eager barbarian, Vaughn, the latter half of the orc, also followed with his axe and said: "Hey! Boss! Please bring me with you, I haven't had a fun battle for a long time."

Hawke looked at the group of eager guys with a little surprise and suddenly felt that he was not nervous at all. He smiled and took out his pipe, put a bit of tobacco, lit it and took a sip and said: "Then I wish you all triumphs. Go back, remember not to damage their ship too much. I'm still ready to accept it." Henry looked at the captain in surprise, but he didn't expect that he would actually take the lead in joking. Asembu touched his bald head and smiled to the captain, "Don’t worry, these weak guys don’t deserve to have such a good ship. I will show them the bravery of the Karut tribe fighters. You can watch it right here. "Henry took out some invisibility potions from the dimension bag and said: "If you want to join me in a raid, you will drink this for a while. Its effect can keep you invisible temporarily. After a round of attacks, you will be invisible. It will lose its effect. I know your attitude towards magic, but I think you shouldn't mind the potion?" The barbarians smiled and said that they did not reject potion, and then sixteen bottles of potion were distributed to everyone's hands.

   Everyone who assaulted against the sea breeze was ready, and only waited for an order to drink the potion and jump into the sea. Henry quietly watched the huge ship approaching slowly, thinking about how to deal with the wizard on board. An hour later, he said, "The time is up! Everyone drank the invisibility potion and started going to the sea. Amy, you blessed the invisibility and tied the rope behind the enemy ship. The others waited for me to launch the first round of attack and then followed the rope. Climb up, the person who climbed up first hides himself and waits for everyone to arrive before attacking." After speaking, he began to bless himself with spells, iron skin, protective ranged weapons, obscurity, secondary spell invalid barriers, and secondary spells. Spell reversal and protective flame finally blessed a flying technique. Just when he blessed the spell, sixteen soldiers had already drank the invisibility potion and jumped into the sea to swim towards the enemy ship. Amy also blessed herself with a stealth spell and activated a flying scroll to start her mission.

   Henry saw everyone start to take action and directly lifted off to the flagship behind. When he was about a hundred meters away from the enemy ship, a giant crossbow arrow shot over and directly hit the energy field, and the long-range protective weapon counteracted the attack. This made him suddenly sweat, and if he sends another shot, it is estimated that the protective long-range weapon will be unstoppable. He had already seen the sailor on the opposite ship starting to pull the winch again to prepare for the second arrow, and hurriedly began to descend and fly against the sea to avoid the shooting angle of the garrison crossbow. Amy secretly tied the rope at the stern while someone was attracting attention and threw the other end into the sea. After receiving the rope, the underwater soldiers began to climb one by one. By this time Henry had avoided the second arrow and flew to the top of the ship. He was standing on the mast and releasing an ice storm. A large area of ​​magical hail hit the entire deck of the sailors. Most of the sailors were directly smashed with ice, and many people were stunned. After breaking up the crew, he began to look for the mage. Only by finding the mage can the battle be resolved quickly.

After seeing the flagship being attacked, the two ships next to    quickly leaned over and threw out the hook and pulled it forcefully. Soon the three ships were merged together, and a large number of pirates on both sides jumped onto the ship along the rope. The soldiers at the stern had already assembled, and they took out their weapons and came to the enemy's back without saying a word. With a roar from the barbarian, the assault began. The half-orc armed with two tomahawks smashed a big hole in the crowd, and everyone who was cut was basically divided into two parts. He shouted excitedly: "Come on, haha! Let me enjoy this exciting battle." Assenbu flew a pirate with a warhammer and said, "Man! Do you want to play with me? Just bet on us tonight. The celebration wine." Vaughn grinned and said with two sharp teeth, "Then you can lose, you know I have two axes but you only have one warhammer." Then he cut with an axe again. The heads of two pirates were dropped.

Assenbu took a look and cursed: "Damn! You are a foul. I hate treacherous half-orcs." The half-orcs laughed and replied, "Your wine today belongs to me. Thank you again for your generosity." Sorceress After the blessing of the stone skin, taking advantage of the chaos and hiding behind the mast, he kept performing intimidation techniques against the pirates who had gathered together, which directly caused the pirates who had been unprepared because of the sneak attack to be more confused. They were slashed like a group of headless flies by the brutal orcs and barbarians behind them. Henry stood on high and cast another ice storm and the morale of the pirates collapsed. They desperately tried to escape back to their boat, but most of them were squeezed out of the sea. The barbarians also took advantage of the situation and divided into two teams to catch up. At this time, a third-level spell "flaming arrow" shot at Henry, and was bounced back by the secondary spell as soon as he approached his body. He only heard a scream in the cabin, and Henry found a mage sneaking up and chased after him. Walked into the cabin and saw a mage holding a crystal ball fell to the ground, his chest was scorched and rolled on the ground in pain. It seems that he was seriously injured by his own spells. Henry walked up and broke 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 just accepted the hire temporarily. I am a member of the Arcane Brotherhood, and I am willing to exchange all my possessions for my own life."

   Then Henry interrogated the mage in detail, and found a sign belonging to the Arcane Brotherhood on him. Obviously, the mage who belongs to the Brotherhood didn't have any integrity and he was recruited before he was sentenced. He was temporarily hired by Kurze to destroy Baram’s business. As for the Arcane Brotherhood, it doesn't care what these leaders want to do, so it doesn't mind internal members participating in such actions. After understanding the specific situation, Henry confiscated all the property of the wizard and finally cut off his head. He was not stupid enough to believe the promise of a member of the Arcane Brotherhood. The first thing these evil camp mages would do is to find their accomplices and come back for revenge. Even if you cannot take revenge for the time being, write down your name and find a way to take revenge on your relatives and friends. After a naval battle, the fleet increased again, and Admiral Hawke now has eight ships. In the evening, a celebration was held on the Sword, and the personnel involved in the raid received a large number of gold coins and unlimited drinks. Asenbu had a sad face eating barbecue and his wine had lost to Vaughan. Henry sat quietly in the cabin thinking that Kurzer was bleeding heavily this time, UU reading www. uukānshu.com Baram will definitely not make him feel better. But killing the members of the Arcane Brotherhood is a big trouble, and the mages of these evil children's camp will definitely get revenge.

   More than a dozen days of voyage quickly passed. After bypassing the storm area, Henry and his party returned to the Angome Islands. After putting down the boat, Henry and Amy paddled ashore on the pier, and Robert and others were already here to greet them. They had seen the huge fleet coming into the harbor and stopped. The dwarf gave Henry a hug and said: "Welcome back, how are things going well?" Henry said with a smile: "It's not going well, it can be said that the situation is terrible. See if those boats are there, there are four smaller ones. These are the pirates we met on the way to go. Look at the three big ships behind, they were sent by a leader of Luskan on our way back to chase us out." Kegan laughed after listening. "But in the end they gave you a fleet. I really don’t know if I should be happy for you or sorry for you." Robert also walked over and bowed to Henry and said, "Master welcome back, I Give it back to you in its entirety. When you were away, Cagan found a huge iron ore vein in the forest, and found a small house nearby that lived a wizard wizard with an abnormal mentality. "Henry shot. He patted him on the shoulder and said, "You did a good job. I will take care of that mage myself. This time we brought back more than 10,000 slaves. The initial construction of the territory will start soon. You will tell the captain in a moment. Send the slaves ashore." Robert turned around when he heard the order to tell Hawke to let the slaves ashore.
