Mystery: Beginning with the Warrior Path

Chapter 60 First Battle
Following Fred's order, the gunners began to take their positions, and the "Torrent Seagull" began to rush towards the "Fierce Fire" pirate group in the distance in a fighting posture.

As the "Torrent Seagull" gradually approached, both sides in the distance also discovered the uninvited guest who was about to break into the battlefield.

However, the two sides cautiously did not approach, but instead opened a distance, and stopped circling and probing each other.

The sudden arrival of ships and unfamiliar flags made it difficult for both sides to know which side the "Torrent Seagull" came to the battlefield.

I don't know if it's a bounty hunter chasing pirates, or a fellow pirate who wants to eat black.

Both sides were watching cautiously until they saw the "Torrent Seagull" turn sideways and aim one side of the muzzle at the "Fierce Fire" pirate group.

"boom!"

The two tiers of guns on the port side of the Torrent Seagull fired simultaneously.

After completing a round of salvo, the "Torrent Seagull" began to change its course and cruise to the right, preparing for the second round of salvo.

And "Fierce Fire" Arena also saw this, and he also found that the firepower of this unknown ship in front of him was extremely fierce.

At the distance just now, the enemy's artillery has not yet reached the range, and the opponent has already launched a salvo.

Arena decisively ordered the sail to turn, and rushed towards the ship in front of him, closing the distance.

For Arena, the uninvited guest in front of him, whether it is a fellow pirate who wants to blackmail him or a pirate hunter, is much more difficult than that whaling ship, and is the priority to be solved.

Arena's choice did not surprise Fred. Fred ordered the ship to turn right and face the enemy on the starboard side. In addition to preparing for starboard artillery fire, it was also to suppress the wind direction and occupy the upperwind position.

In the new era, although most ships have added steam power, the huge sails can still provide enough power, especially the older ships like the "Fierce Fire" pirate group on the opposite side.

After the second round of artillery salvo hit, the two sides began to advance on a level line, because the "Torrent Seagull" suppressed the wind direction and its firepower was stronger.

A longer entanglement would certainly be a more favorable option for the Torrent Seagull.

Knowing that the enemy has several powerful Extraordinary, Fred chose to make full use of the artillery and power advantages of his own ship to kill the enemy first, try to avoid or delay the time of boarding battle, and reduce unnecessary casualties .

Abandoning one's own advantages and recklessly launching a boarding battle with the enemy is not a decision that a qualified commander should make.

After the two sides made several circles in this sea area and fired several rounds of volleys, Ariana found that he seemed to have no other way. Several sailors on this side have been hit by artillery.

Arena, who has seen the status quo, is ready to withdraw from this battle. A long-term stalemate will not only reduce its own staff, but also easily bring more accidents, such as the reappearance of a third party.

And his extraordinary ability is useless at a distance of a few hundred yards. The artillery shooting at this distance is a waste of expensive artillery, Ariana thought, and ordered the helmsman to change the course and prepare to leave this sea area.

"Captain, run away!" The lookout clearly saw this change and reported it to Captain Fred.

Fred also understood the opponent's intentions, but he didn't mean to end the battle.

After all, this was the first battle of the "Torrent Seagull" in the target sea area, and the opponent was not very strong, and they were notorious pirates.

Whether it is from the perspective of training the crew or from the perspective of hunting, this is a good goal.

How can they let them go so easily when their own side has the upper hand?
So decisively ordered, chase!
Roman knew that the pursuit battle could easily develop into a boarding battle, so he reminded the sailors to be prepared.

And Roman himself also came to the sideboard.

Arena also discovered the opponent's pursuit intention, knowing that the battle was inevitable, he was not angry but happy.

In Arena's view, even if the ship in front of him had more powerful firepower, it would be impossible to fire expensive shells endlessly. In the end, he must choose to join the ship to determine the outcome, and this was just as he wished.

Fred really didn't plan to continue shelling. The number of shells on board was limited, and it was impossible to fire them endlessly. This would make the "Torrent Seagull" lose its ability to face subsequent crises, such as the sudden appearance of third-party forces.

Therefore, after killing some of the opponent's active forces with artillery, the only way to maximize the benefits is to connect the sides.

After all, the goal of the Torrent Gull was not to sink pirate ships, but to hunt pirates' heads and capture their ships and belongings.

As the distance between the two ships got closer, both sides were ready for a boarding battle.

Roman walked towards Fred, "Captain, when we get off the ship, let me face the 'Fire' on the opposite side."

This is also what Roman has considered. The most threatening to the "Torrent Seagull" and everyone on board is the suspected "arsonist" Arena.

It should be the best choice to hold him back and create space for teammates to kill other pirates. Roman, who has several powerful extraordinary items, is confident to hold a "arsonist". When the opponent is low, there is more power to eliminate the influence of the arsonist on the ship with water spells.

Facing an opponent with a higher sequence than himself on the surface is also the opportunity Roman wants to look for to play.

Fred looked at Roman and nodded: "Then be careful yourself, as long as you hold him back, we will deal with the rest of the pirates as soon as possible."

When everyone was making a battle plan, the sailors on the opposite side had already thrown their grappling hooks, and the boarding battle officially started.

Before the two ships were completely close, arrows made of red flames suddenly appeared on the opposite ship, flying towards the people on the "Torrent Seagull".

Fred took a step forward, raised his hands, and condensed water spheres from the sea water to float in the air. The water spheres gradually solidified like cannonballs, blocking the flight path of the arrows.

"Bang!" At the moment when the water and the fire came into contact, the cannonball-like water polo exploded suddenly, turning into water mist all over the sky, and the red arrows formed by the flames also disappeared.

so handsome...

Before Roman had time to feel emotional, he saw that the enemy had already crossed the deck and rushed towards the "Torrent Seagull".

According to the plan, Roman rushed directly to the crowd and began to look for the "arsonist".

As a partial caster, Arena will definitely not rush to the enemy immediately.

However, when he saw Roman brandishing his long sword and rushing into the crowd, killing several sailors in an instant, he still couldn't hold back and repeatedly compressed a scorching yellow arrow in front of him, and shot at Roman. Come.

And this process of condensing and compressing also allowed Roman, who had been scanning the battlefield, to discover the location of the "Fierce Fire" Arena.
