Mercenary Wars

Chapter 27 Fate
"Hehe, this is a forgotten land, God will not lower His gaze here." The leading Blood Sail Pirate said with a smile, looking up and down at the short-haired girl.

"Moza is everywhere!" the girl said again.

But it was obvious that the three Bloodsail Pirates were not pious, at least not at this time: "I advise you not to resist, so we will be gentle!"

Gao Jianuo, who was observing secretly, was stroking his chin and thinking.

He still had some simple sense of justice, and the Bloodsail Pirates and the Grey Eagle Mercenaries had a bad relationship, and they almost fought a few days ago, so emotionally he was very happy to kill these three guys, but he was a little worried that he could not win.

Gao Jianuo's consideration soon ended.

Because he noticed that the leading Bloodsail pirate had impatiently begun to unbutton his pants and threw the weapon in his hand aside, as if he was completely defenseless.

Gao Jianuo immediately took out four long-feathered arrows, quickly smeared Ryan's poison on them, and then put them on the wolf tendon bow. He adjusted the angle, aimed at the Blood Sail Pirates while carefully avoiding the direction of the girl.

"call out--"

Guided by the swift breeze, four long-feathered arrows hit the target accurately. The two Bloodsail pirates lost their combat ability on the spot and soon died from the effects of the poison.

The leading Bloodsail Pirate was obviously much stronger than these two guys. He narrowly avoided the arrow at the critical moment and looked back at the same time.

The sudden arrival of four long-feathered arrows startled the short-haired girl, but she reacted quickly and rushed forward to stab the pirate while he turned his head.

"Ah - bitch!" The pirate was stabbed in the abdomen and let out a scream and curse.

Then, contrary to the expectations of Gao Jianuo and the girl, he neither chose to attack nor to escape, and he did not even pick up his weapon. Instead, he turned around suddenly and dived into the river beside him.

With a "splash" sound, water splashed in the river.

"?" Gao Jianuo frowned in suspicion. But he quickly regained his vigilance. While looking at the place where the pirate fell into the water, he bent his bow and drew his long-feathered arrow, ready to shoot.

A few seconds later, the originally calm river water suddenly began to surge, and the waves grew higher and higher, eventually swirling to form a water man more than three meters tall, and the Blood Sail Pirates could be vaguely seen wrapped in the water.

"Fighting with me in the water is the last stupid thing you will ever do in your life!" The water man said slowly, the sound of flowing water mixed in his tone.

Then he reached out and pulled the girl into the water.

The girl screamed and struggled desperately but to no avail. She soon suffocated and passed out. She was then thrown back to the shore, lying motionless like a fish waiting to be slaughtered.

Seeing this scene, Gao Jianuo's face couldn't help but flicker with gloom.

There is no doubt that the abilities displayed by the pirates are a blessing from the water element.

But this is a bit too much!

He tried to shoot an arrow, aided by four swift breezes, but was unable to penetrate the layer of water surrounding the pirates.

The water flowed gently, and the long-feathered arrow that had pierced the water man fell into the water.

"I feel the power of the wind, but it's too weak. Neptulon told me I'll die in the storm." The water man said contemptuously, while walking towards Gao Jianuo not far away. "Now, I will offer you to the King of Water!"

Gao Jianuo's expression changed slightly.

Could this be related to the other party's "fate"?

Neptulon obviously would not chat specifically with low-level mortals. If the pirate's words were not nonsense, they could only be the fate he was told when he obtained the holy name.

When upgrading before, Gao Jianuo noticed that many powerful blessings came with a "fate", and "fate" usually had serious negative effects.

It is almost equivalent to a curse that harms people, and there is a high probability that it can kill people.

Storm...isn't this a coincidence?

Seeing the water man getting closer and closer, Gao Jianuo made a quick decision and turned around and ran.

"You can't get away!" The water man also gave chase. Despite being over three meters tall, his movements didn't seem clumsy at all. The distance between them gradually closed.

As Gao Jianuo ran, he observed the surrounding terrain and made sure to stay away from the water as much as possible.

Then, when the distance between the two sides was only a few dozen meters, he suddenly turned around and threw a blue-gray ball with his backhand, which was the inferior wind ball.

While throwing the ball, Gao Jianuo quickly drew his bow and arrow, and attached four clusters of swift breeze.

The long-feathered arrow shot out, and the arrow head hit the magic ball hard.

"boom--"

Immediately there was a loud bang and the storm swept in!
The water man was hit in the face by the wind ball, and most of his body was immediately blown away by the storm. His body, which was originally more than three meters long, was reduced to less than two meters in an instant.

Looking through the thin layer of water that only remained for a few centimeters, the terrified faces of the Bloodsail Pirates were clearly visible.

At the same time, Gao Jianuo showed a cold smile, moved forward, and bent the bow again.

"No!" The Bloodsail Pirate screamed, turned around and ran towards the water in panic.

"call out--"

A long-feathered arrow flew over, and with only the help of two swift breezes, it easily penetrated the water layer.

The pirate screamed and fell to the ground, but he still crawled towards the water, and seemed to be muttering something.

Another long-feathered arrow shot over.

The arrow pierced the pirate's neck directly, completely rendering him unable to move. He could only crawl on the ground and wriggle, staring at the river a hundred meters away in despair.

"Lord of the Waters... Lord of the Ocean... Neptulon... save your followers," he murmured.

Gao Jianuo stepped forward and drew the dagger from his waist: "This is a forgotten place, the gods will not lower their gaze!"

The dagger fell, nailing the pirate to the ground at the neck.

Kill a Level 2 Human, Experience +100

[Experience: 455/400 (upgradeable)]

Gao Jianuo is in a good mood, now he can upgrade again.

Of course, he would definitely not choose to upgrade now, as that would cause him to exceed the level limit of the Snake Slashing Line and he would not be able to get out.

Looted the bodies of the three pirates.

Three Bloodsail Corsair badges, a map, and a dozen silver coins...that was about all the valuables. It was a bit shabby, probably because most people wouldn't bring much into the Tidal Lands.

Then Gao Jianuo came to the riverside and leaned over to look at the short-haired girl who was still unconscious.

The girl was fine.

Although her short hair style, similar to that of men, makes her look a little strange, her delicate facial features and wheat-colored skin still give her a unique beauty.

No wonder the three Bloodsail Pirates are so anxious.

Now, the beautiful girl lay defenseless in front of Gao Jianuo.

He can do whatever he wants as long as he wants.

But Gao Jianuo was not a pirate after all. After studying the girl's appearance for a moment, he reached out and patted her: "Wake up."

The girl woke up slowly, and after realizing that Gao Jianuo had saved her, she couldn't help but thank him many times with gratitude, and took the initiative to introduce herself: "My name is Casca."
