Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
When the Bauhinia Alliance officer saw this scene, he was stunned.
...
What did those Glory Lords do? Why were the pirates chasing after them?
Then, he suddenly realized.
Huh? Werenât they blocking the entrance to the Mystic Realm and forcing the Glory Lords to hand over their gains?
He had lost his focus for a moment and failed to intervene.
But if they let them escape, they would truly gain nothing.
The officer glanced at the approaching Krieg fleet.
He wasnât foolish. He knew the formidable power of the Blood Spirit Warriors. If both sides engaged in a skirmish, they would undoubtedly lose. So now, they needed to create some distance and utilize their firepower advantage by unleashing their cannons.
Thus, the fleet of the Bauhinia Alliance formed a formation, manoeuvring at high speed while firing their cannons.
The battlefield situation once again underwent a change.
The Bauhinia Alliance fleet and Kriegâs main fleet chased after each other and began to engage in an intense fire.
It was unknown if it was intentional or not, but Bauhiniaâs fleet was also heading in the direction of the fleeing player fleet.
When the players saw this scene, they started cursing again.
They didnât do anything outrageous, so why did everyone seem to be chasing after them?
âSir, the left side of the ship is damaged!â
âAll the crossbows at the stern are damaged!â
âThe sails are damaged, and the power has decreased slightly!â
Sparrow kept reporting the damage, and every word made Ji Chenâs heart sink.
Letâs forget about being able to return to the territory safely, it was already good enough that he hadnât lost a few arms and legs.
Listening to the sound of cannonballs flying past his ears, he knew that he could not continue like this. He had to think of a way.
They looked at the fleet that was chasing after them in several echelons. They were only about a kilometer away from each other.
This was considered a short distance on the sea.
The New Moon lacked cannons, so it was impossible to defeat the pirates, Krieg, or the Bauhinia Alliance.
In such a vast sea, he was a living target.
Therefore, the best solution now was to head to the nearby Silver Islands at full speed. They would use the complicated sea area and the numerous islands there to avoid the bombardment. They would hide their ships and find an opportunity to escape!
Ji Chen didnât hesitate for even half a second.
He ordered Sparrow to turn the bow slightly and sail toward the Silver Islands.
In order to speed up, he even controlled the waves at the stern to push the ship forward.
His speed increased in an instant, and he moved forward.
The players in the second tier were dumbfounded when they saw this.
âHow can this guyâs ship travel so fast!? This was a medieval sailing ship, not a steamship!â
âLook at the direction itâs heading inâŠIt was the Silver Islands, the headquarters of the Bauhinia Alliance.â
âWait a minuteâŠI understand now! They wanted to use the complex terrain of the Silver Islands to escape pursuit!â
âI see. Good idea! Then why are we still waiting? Follow suit!â
The New Moon swiftly darted into the midst of the island chain, instantly concealed by towering mountains and dense foliage.
Following suit, the player fleet dispersed in all directions the moment they entered the island chain, disappearing behind the islands like scurrying mice.
The pirate fleet, without hesitation, sailed towards the spot where the New Moon had vanished.
The Krieg fleet, which was in pursuit of the New Moon, hesitated briefly before following the pirate fleet.
Lastly, both the Bauhinia Alliance fleet and the Krieg flagship fleet, still engaged in intense fire, also entered the island chain, maneuvering and firing amidst the islands.
The exhilarating open sea confrontation swiftly transformed into a skillful island-based shootout.
Under Ji Chenâs acceleration, the New Moon moved like an agile fish, constantly manoeuvring between complex islands, quickly leaving behind the pursuing pirate fleet and Krieg sub-fleets.
âMy Lord, should we leave this place immediately?â Sparrow asked.
Ji Chen looked at the surrounding islands, and his thoughts began to run wild.
The initiative was back in his hands. With the high mobility of the New Moon, he could move around here easily.
However, due to the composition of the pirate fleet and the Krige sub-fleets, their speed was certainly lacking. In order to efficiently locate the New Moon, they had to divide their forces. Once they divided, it meant there was an opportunity to exploit.
âWe wonât retreat for now. Letâs seize the chance to give them a good beating!â
âAs you wish,â Sparrow replied with a hint of excitement on his face.
After their previous frantic pursuit, he had been holding back his frustration. Now, with the Lordâs order to counterattack, it aligned perfectly with his desires.
The New Moon sailed slowly on the surface of the sea, while all the shallow sea murlocs and Naga Warriors were dispatched to scout the enemyâs positions.
The sea breeze blew, and the murlocs and Naga Warriors leapt through the water.
Soon, the shallow sea murlocs and Naga Warriors returned with a piece of news.
Two pirate ships were manoeuvring in the southwest direction, only about a kilometer away from the New Moon in a straight line. However, due to several islands blocking their view, they couldnât see the exact location of the New Moon.
Two pirate shipsâŠ
Jichen nodded silently.
Typically, a pirate ship of the Black Skull Pirates had about 200 elite pirates onboard. So, two ships meant 400 elite pirates, a number they could handle.
On the two pirate ships.
The pirates looked at the surrounding islands and seas, feeling restless in their hearts..
