Chapter 175 Revenge
Just one salvo of artillery fire destroyed most of the two dozen ships. Many survivors fell into the sea along with the sunken ship, and many people were directly hit by the shells and exploded into bloody flowers.
Many survivors reacted and showed off their magical powers, either using mobility skills to escape to other intact ships, or using defensive skills to try to withstand the bombardment. However, their actions were of no avail under the dense barrage of artillery shells. There were no eggs left after the nest was overturned. Even Brother Long's ships could only rely on the protective shields of his magicians to support them in turn, so as to avoid being destroyed. The fate of the artillery being blown to pieces.
"Sprint, charge, charge!"
Brother Long realized that there was no way out except rushing to the shore, and he immediately ordered his men to sprint towards the shore with all their strength. He once thought that Zhang Shi could take out some advanced weapons for defense, but he never expected that the other party could set up an entire artillery array. If he had known this, even if he was given twice as many troops, he would not rush over stupidly. Die.
Cai Qing specially applied for the task of encircling the side of the island long before the attack, so he avoided the bombardment. At this time, he looked at the tragic scenes on the north bank with lingering fear, and had a new understanding of Zhang Shi's methods.
Just as Brother Long and his party were desperately sprinting towards the north shore of the island, trying to find a glimmer of hope under the gunfire, unusual fluctuations suddenly appeared on the sea. The strong smell of blood on the sea surface drifted away with the sea breeze, which not only made the survivors nervous, but also alarmed unknown creatures in the deep sea.
A huge octopus sea beast poked its head out from a distance. Its dark body was covered with colorful lines, and its tentacles were like eight giant whips, tumbling in the sea water. It was attracted by the artillery fire and blood on the north shore, and slowly approached the battlefield. Its arrival undoubtedly made it worse for the already desperate situation of Long Ge's fleet.
"Look! What is that!"
A member of the Dragon-Tiger Alliance pointed at the sea in horror, with an uncontrollable tremor in his voice.
Brother Long looked in the direction of his finger and saw a huge creature approaching quickly. Its tentacles had begun to wrap around some severely damaged and powerless ships, ruthlessly dragging the survivors on board into the sea, and then swallowing them in one gulp. .
The emergence of sea beasts makes the already chaotic battlefield even more out of control. The survivors not only have to face artillery attacks from Zhang Shi, but also avoid the terrifying threat of sea beasts.
"Quick! Change direction and stay away from that monster!" Brother Long ordered loudly, but at this time he was already riding a tiger and couldn't get off. Many ships were severely damaged and could not move quickly at all. They could only watch helplessly as they became the next target of the sea monster.
Zhang Shi witnessed this sudden change on the island and couldn't help but feel secretly happy. Although he did not expect that sea beasts would intervene, this situation was undoubtedly more beneficial to him.
"Brother Long, it seems that God is going to kill you. You are doomed today."
When Brother Long saw the sea beast following him, he was immediately anxious and angry. Under pressure from both sides at the same time, his decision was influenced by his emotions, and he commanded his men to attack the sea beast that was constantly approaching. Suddenly, all kinds of arrows and spells hit the huge head of the sea beast. The sea beast felt pain and stretched out its tentacles to resist. Brother Long's operation not only failed to solve the crisis at hand, but also angered the other party. The sea beast sped up and crashed straight into Brother Long's ship.
At the same time, the artillery on the island continued to fire. As the distance approached, dense shells fell on the huge body of the sea beast. The sound of explosions intertwined with the churning of the sea water, forming a shocking picture. The sea beast suffered from the shells, and although it slowed down, it became more violent under the severe pain. However, its attacks became more and more blind, and it began to attack the surrounding ships and survivors indiscriminately. At this time, the Eighteenth Route Alliance was completely defeated, and most of the people were buried at the bottom of the sea. Only Brother Long and his party took this opportunity to rush to the shore and gained a short respite. The opponent was already very close to his team, and Zhang Shi didn't want to damage the construction facilities he had worked so hard to build, so he ordered his men to stop firing and led his team to surround him.
Except for the people who dispersed to surround the island, only Long Ge's ship survived the bombardment and reached the shore. Most of the people on this ship were the elite backbone members of the Dragon-Tiger Brotherhood. There were about a hundred people, all of whom were capable survivors. Despite this, they also consumed a lot of magic power when dealing with the bombardment. At this time, everyone was exhausted and just wanted to escape as soon as possible.
Brother Long had the same idea. He quickly found the teleportation device and tried to open the teleportation gate completely, but found that the teleportation device did not respond at all. Only then did he remember that this island seemed to have a space restriction, and all teleportation behaviors were prohibited.
Brother Long looked dejected and turned to look at the remaining men.
"There is a problem on this island. Don't even think about escaping. If you fight your way out, kill Zhang Shi and take control of this island. Maybe there is still a chance of survival."
When everyone heard these words, their expressions were very exciting. Some people were crying, some were angry, and some were rolling their little eyes as if they were thinking.
At the same time, Zhang Shi's army was approaching. Hundreds of well-equipped soldiers surrounded this group of people. Behind him was the endless sea, and there was a giant sea beast staring at him in the sea. Brother Long and his party seemed to have no way out. .
Zhao Feng raised his battle ax and walked out with murderous intent on his face. He stared at the leading men fiercely, stretched out his fingers and pointed at Brother Long, Chen Beipan and Xie Dong one by one.
"Except for the three of them, everyone else can avoid death by laying down their weapons and surrendering."
After Zhao Feng finished speaking, several people who had seen the situation clearly began to stir. One of the survivors thought for a moment, dropped his weapon, and shouted loudly.
"I am willing to surrender. Don't kill me. The mastermind of this action is Brother Long."
Brother Long's eyes were cold. He turned around and changed into the form of a giant snake in an instant, spraying a mouthful of venom on the man's face. The powerful corrosiveness of the venom fell on the flesh and blood, and bursts of white smoke came out. The surrendered survivor let out a shrill roar, but he only struggled for a moment and then stopped moving.
"Whoever dares to surrender will end up like this!"
Brother Long's voice came out of the giant snake's mouth, which made it more cold and terrifying. Although everyone was dissatisfied, no one dared to stand up and talk about surrender.
Zhao Feng saw this, a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, and then he waved his hand gently to the team behind him. In an instant, various muskets and bows and arrows fired at the same time, and they immediately suppressed the opponent with firepower.
"I'll give you a heads-up first."
The Dragon-Tiger Brothers could only use up their remaining magic power to release the shield and hold out as long as possible. Brother Long and Xie Dong also moved at this time, and their bodies rushed towards Zhao Feng in the front like two lightning bolts. To catch a thief, you must first catch the leader. The two of them had fought with this golden-armored warrior before, and they knew the opponent's strength. At the moment, it was obvious that Zhao Feng was the key to breaking the situation.
