Wizard: Surviving in the Steam Age with Points for Demon Hunter

Chapter 380 Anxiety and Action

"Open the magic circle!"

"Gunners, fire. Gunners, aim at the Alaniga and blast it!!"

"Kill them and capture Wojciech Island!!"

"kill!"

"..."

In just a moment, the pirates and noble extraordinary people on the Alaniga's side rushed to the high walls of Wojciech Island like a tide.

Facing the power of the rune array erupting outside the high wall, they activated their extraordinary bloodlines one after another, and terrifying power soared into the sky.

"Hey, Dis, you're the ones who will lose!"

Two tall and majestic figures in the crowd collided fiercely, punching each other flesh to flesh. Neither of them dodged or evaded, and focused on attacking.

"It's too early to say that, Ignacio."

Dis's original power completely erupted, and his tall and incomparable body stood like a mountain under the high wall, serving as a strong support point for the pirates of Alaniga.

Other supporting points include Amanguli "The Armed One" Calhoun and Woodward "The Sea Beast" Girardot.

The three of them formed a trident, with the "sea monster" as the center, and forcefully squeezed into the narrow open space under the high wall.

Dozens of legendary pirates lined up behind them, forming a sharp knife, trying to tear open the Black Pearl's defense line.

Behind them were the first mates who were a level lower in strength, following their respective captains to assist and finish off the enemy.

This was the most suitable formation for the current battle, but it also left Wayne with not much opportunity to take advantage of. He could only pretend to fight and kill a few pirates while looking for opportunities to contact the pirates he had deceived and controlled and send some signals.

【…】

At the same time, those nobles and extraordinary people chose to fight in their own way, opening up a second battlefield on the other side away from the "Sea Beast" and others, further dispersing the guarding forces on Wojciech Island in order to achieve the purpose of weakening them.

The battle reached a fever pitch in an instant!

Lotilia stood on the high wall and looked down at the battlefield below, her eyes sweeping across like a sharp sword. She knew very well that the key at the moment was how to effectively cut off the offensive of the Araniga and disrupt their formation.

If it were only the big pirates that Suad gathered and won over, she wouldn't have such a headache as she does now. The trouble lies with the noble extraordinary people.

Not only are those extraordinary people of noble birth as strong as Suad and the others, the equipment they carry and the consumables and tools they carry are also very sophisticated. They are at least much stronger than the pirates who "use whatever they have".

Faced with this situation, Lothilia understood that she had to make a choice at this time, otherwise the battle would be lost before Black Jack and others arrived.

therefore--

"Theodore, go to the left wing and use the power of the magic circle to hold back those noble bastards! Gunners, archers, and artillery will cover and fire!"

"On the right wing, Ignacio is the core. We must protect his safety and block the attack of the 'Sea Beast' and others!"

Lothilia's voice echoed across the battlefield. In the absence of the captain and first mate, her words represented the highest command of the Black Pearl.

In just a few seconds, the pirates of the Black Pearl obeyed her orders and sprang into action.

As the core of the right-wing defense, "Guard Knight" Theodore Graf, with the cooperation of five legendary pirates, fought with more than a dozen noble extraordinary people, which greatly reduced the pressure on the right side.

At the same time, the pirates on the left wing threw out heavy anchor chains with barbs all over them, hanging on the high walls. Together with the hot magma flowing above, they tried their best to delay the offensive of the noble transcendents.

They followed the Black Pearl in the Cordoba Sea for many years, experienced countless battles of all sizes, and cooperated with each other very well.

Especially after receiving Lothilia's command, they all knew the heavy responsibility on their shoulders - to do their best to hold back those noble bastards!

"Gunners, don't disperse. Focus on those below the legendary level first. Kill them all and then attack the others." The pirates tried their best to resist.

"Haha, it's no use. The balance of power had already been broken when we arrived."

"Today, your Black Pearl is destined to become history!"

The leader was a noble, wearing a sky-blue dress and a uniform silver mask on his face, with the symbol of the Glory Society engraved on his forehead - a sword and shield crossed on a gold pound.

"When the boss wakes up, all of you will die!" Theodore didn't dare to be distracted too much. After a roar, he burst out with all his original strength.

A solid light shield was formed outside his heavy armor, resisting the attacks of the nobles and extraordinary men, while also protecting the pirates behind him.

Every few seconds, a pirate below the legendary level would be killed, especially those nobles with a talent for assassination, who were elusive here and specialized in killing gunmen in high places.

However, the efforts of Theodore and others were not without effect. At least the ruling-level people on the noble side were all killed, and the extraordinary people at the level of the Hand of the Kingdom were also fleeing in a panic under the focus of artillery fire and were unable to take care of themselves.

Unfortunately, those nobles had as many as thirty-two legendary ones, almost twice the force behind Theodore.

Even though they had launched an all-out attack, even with the help of rune arrays, gunners and archers in high shooting positions, and artillery fire, the pirates on the left wing were still losing ground.

Compared with the casualties of the nobles, the death rate of the pirates on the left wing was far beyond the expectations of Lotillia and others.

At the same time, the battle on the right wing became even more intense!
The rune array was activated, and beams of light shot out from the ground to form a network of light, trapping the pirates, including Ignacio and others.

Lothilia was determined to fight to the death, so she controlled the rune array to form a cage.

She knew very well that as long as they could survive this stage of the battle, the war would surely turn in their favor once Black Jack and his men arrived.

only……

Lotilia looked worriedly at the Araniga in the distance. She was very concerned about the "Ode" Suade Ermanno and the "Strange Doctor" Nicolas Pastor who were still observing the battle on the ship.

The fact that the two men did not take action meant that the battle situation was still favorable for them at this time.

As long as they didn't take action, Lothilia had to divert her attention to prevent Suad from climbing over the high wall and attacking the high tower in the city-state.

If such a situation occurred, she believed it would be a heavy blow to everyone on Wojciech Island.

Thinking of this, Lotilia gritted her teeth and shouted, "Don't give them a chance to breathe! Keep attacking!"

In fact, she didn't need to remind them, because the pirates of the Black Pearl had already burst out with extraordinary power.

Some transformed into giant sea beasts, some summoned violent storms, and some even manipulated flames to form a sea of ​​fire...

Various extraordinary characteristics intertwined together to form obstacles, making it difficult for the big pirates of the Alaniga Alliance to fight.

No, to be precise, no one wants to be the first to fight at a time like this.

For pirate captains like Dis, they only need to do their best to consume the opponent's strength while protecting their own safety, and they will be the winners!
"Don't be scared by them, use that one, 'Black Snake'." Crook leaned against Amanguli, looking at Ignacio who did not retreat a single step, with a smile on his face.

"too early."

"Asshole, we don't need to do that now. Do you want to wait until Black Jack and the others arrive before getting stuck in a passive and difficult battle?!"

Amanguli was breathing heavily. She, Dis and the sea beast were also bearing most of the attacks from the Black Pearl. Under such a high-intensity outbreak, they were already powerless.

At this time, hearing what "Black Snake" said, she was furious and roared: "Don't wait, use whatever powerful thing you have!"

"All right……"

'Black Snake' Fintala Cook glanced behind him and thought that even Boss Suad hadn't taken action, so it was obvious that they had the upper hand in the war, so why should they rush?

However, he also knew what Amanguli and others were thinking. If the people under the high wall really waited for Black Jack's reinforcements, he would inevitably be in a difficult and dangerous situation.

"cover me!"

After saying this, Fintara moved back a little, with an ancient broadsword in his hand. The slender sword had countless criss-cross marks of damage, and the tip of the sword was even broken.

As his origin exploded, power continuously gathered on the broken sword, and an illusory figure vaguely emerged - a man in golden armor and iron mask, holding an illusory greatsword in his hand.

"Gululu..."

A strange sound echoed in the sky, and the surrounding air began to distort. The sea breeze seemed to become docile in the face of this force, and endless black clouds gathered in the sky...

Fintala took a deep breath, his eyes flashing with a sharp light.

"Come on, let this sea area see what true terror is!"

There was a hint of fanaticism in Fintala's deep voice. He raised the broken sword high, with the tip pointing to the sky.

As he moved, the damaged marks on the sword began to emit a faint blue light. The light became brighter and brighter, and eventually it almost illuminated the entire battlefield.

At the same time, a huge shadow appeared behind him, with the same movements, also holding a huge sword high, and invisible power condensed in an instant.

"Who is the target?" Fintala looked down at the high wall and laughed.

"What do you say?"

Woodward and Amanguli in front heard the voice behind them, and said with a grim smile: "Kill Ignacio for me!"

Without the defensive core standing in front of them, their offensive will be unstoppable. "Black Snake, you should have used this method a long time ago!"

Seeing this scene, Lothilia's eyes were covered with a layer of silver light, as if she could see through the future.

not good!

"Ignacio get out of the way!"

Before she finished her words, Lotilia jumped off the high wall with a hammer in her hand, rushed towards the "Sea Beast" and others for the first time, and appeared next to the "Black Snake" in the blink of an eye.

"Well done!"

Fintala glanced at her, ignored her, and swung his sword directly.

The dark clouds in the sky suddenly exploded, and countless lightning bolts were like angry dragons and snakes, shuttling freely through the clouds, as if to increase his power.

In an instant, a terrifying force gushed out from the tip of the broken sword.

Lotilia gritted her teeth and pushed forward. A layer of silver light covered the iron hammer and it hit the sword.

"boom!"

At the moment of impact, Lotilia was knocked flying backwards.

At the same time, the huge shadow also dropped the sword towards Ignacio.

"Get away!"

Fortunately, Lotilia had reminded him beforehand, and Ignacio escaped in a panic with the help of several legendary pirates nearby.

"Boom!"

The huge blow hit the high wall, making a deafening noise. The high wall seemed to have become fragile paper at that moment and collapsed.

The moment the high wall collapsed, countless pieces of rubble scattered around like meteors, tearing a hole in the Black Pearl's defense line on the right.

"Hahahahaha... Well done! 'Black Snake'!"

Woodward was overjoyed when he saw this, and signaled Amanguli and Dis to advance, while he went straight to Lotilia.

He directly activated his extraordinary bloodline, and his entire body turned into a giant fishman, with blue skin, fins around his mouth, and hard scales on his limbs, making him look like a real sea monster.

"Hammer Girl, Prophet? Hoho, victory will definitely belong to the Alaniga, and the 'Emperor of the Sea' is only Captain Suard!"

Woodward roared, clenched his fists, and swung wildly to meet Lothilia's hammer. The huge roar instantly tore through the air, making a deafening roar.

"Stop them!"

"Yubel, keep an eye on Suad, don't let him disturb the boss!"

"Ignacio, hold off Dis, Amanguli, and Black Snake!"

This result was beyond Lotilia's expectations. She didn't expect the high wall to be breached so quickly. She could only fight fiercely with the "sea beast" Woodward Ryder Girardot while commanding the pirates around her to try their best to resist the attack of the pirates of the Araniga.

At this moment, the battle took a huge turn. The morale of the pirates on the Alaniga was greatly boosted and they gradually expanded their advantage.

The pirates of the Black Pearl were forced to build a new line of defense, hoping for the arrival of Black Jack and others.

Wayne noticed the prompt on the panel and carefully followed the pirates of the Araniga, quietly controlling the pirates below the legendary level to gather together and cooperate with each other to resist the attacks of the pirates of Wojciech Island.

Although he did not want to kill the pirates on Wojciech Island, those who voluntarily came forward died in front of him one by one.

In particular, he noticed the battle results of the noble extraordinary people on the left wing who came to assist the Araniga. Not only did they destroy all the rune arrays outside the high walls, but they also cleared out the turrets and gunners hidden inside the high walls one by one.

Not only that, but their strength is great and their attitude is even more positive than that of the "Sea Beasts" and their ilk.

They would bring out oddities like spell scrolls, potions, and rune arrays to further expand the Araniga's position.

This would give the Black Pearl, which was guarding Wojciech Island, a geographical advantage.

This left Wei En no chance to slack off...

"We can't go on like this. If Black Jack and his men don't come, I'm afraid the island's forces will be wiped out."

Seeing this situation, Wei En gritted his teeth and made a bold decision -

“Gather around me!”

In an instant, the pirates under his control immediately moved away from their opponents and gathered around Wayne.

"Ok?"

The withdrawal of dozens of pirates made the attack on Wojciech Island significantly weakened. "Sea Beast" and others looked at Wayne (Giles) in astonishment.

"What's going on? Giles, what did you do?!"

Even Suade, who was still standing on the Araniga, turned his eyes to Wayne.

At this time, Wei En couldn't care less. Seeing that most people had gathered, he took out the golden key and turned it, bringing the surrounding pirates into the theater space.

"Forehead!"

As they disappeared, the fierce battlefield fell silent.

Except for a few people fighting fiercely on the high wall, everyone else, whether on the Black Pearl or the Araniga side, were stunned.

"what's the situation?"

"What did that bastard Giles do?"

"He took my first mate?!"

Unlike the pirates on the Alaniga who were extremely angry and frustrated, the morale of the pirates on the Black Pearl was greatly boosted.

Although they didn't know what was happening, it didn't stop them from continuing to attack others.

"Hahaha... Great! No matter who it is, after this battle, I will definitely drink with him."

"With dozens of pirates missing all of a sudden, that old man Suade must be confused, right?"

"Hahaha……"

Lotilia was also surprised by this situation. She could only guess that this was a backup plan prepared by Black Jack.

However, she was not as optimistic as other pirates. After all, the big pirates who had just left were of a lower level in strength and could only ease the defensive pressure on the island but could not affect the entire battle situation.

Of course, she wasn't stupid enough to voice her concerns, but took the opportunity to further boost morale:
"Did you see that? Victory will definitely belong to the Black Pearl and the great 'Emperor of the Sea' Isabello Clijsters!!"

Yubel understood and quickly agreed, "That's right! Reinforcements will arrive soon, everyone hold on!"

"Haha... didn't expect that one of you is one of ours!"

For a moment, the pirates guarding Wojciech Island were cheered up and cleared up the previous decline caused by the attack of the forbidden objects.

"Damn it! That's definitely not Giles! Who is it?!"

"No matter who you are, I swear to take off your head!!"

Woodward roared, and a shadow was cast as he swung his fist. The terrifying power almost blew up the space and attacked Lotillia again.

"Stop struggling, it's futile!"

"Humph!"

Lotilia snorted coldly and responded with a hammer!
Wayne's departure seemed to be just an episode. After the episode, the two powerful pirate groups in the Cordo Sea continued to collide.

However, a small number of people are always paying attention to him, including Suade.

"How dare you do such a thing at such a critical moment? It is unforgivable!"

"Unforgivable bastard!!"
