After a salvo, the fleets of both sides staggered away. The warships were organized into a row, turned right and took a circuitous route, preparing to seize the 'T' position.
With the change of orientation, the warship's maneuverability is greatly enhanced. If nothing unexpected happens, they will be able to secure victory after the next salvo.
In contrast, the situation of the pirates was much worse. Their disorderly style was once again exposed. Except for a few Junk ships that quickly turned left and aimed their broadside guns at the warships, the remaining ships were like headless flies. Just as spread out.
By the way, during the first salvo just now, three Junk ships were ravaged by shells, and a large amount of seawater poured into the cabins, leaving them in a semi-paralyzed state.
The formation was disrupted, which was tantamount to disaster for the pirates. Looking at the warships on the opposite side, there was no need to fight for the head position after the formation. The gunners loaded the shells and fired at will to win the battle.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom——"
I saw dense firelights lighting up the side of the warship, white smoke rising, and solid artillery bombarding the pirate ship and the sea.
Wood chips were flying, water was splashing, and the pirate ships were heaving with the waves under the gunfire. The situation of the battle took a turn for the worse. Even a layman like Russell could tell that the situation was over.
Barbosa was determined to quit. His teammates were too bad to lead him. If he didn't quit, he would be tricked to death. Moreover, the warship is shelling the Bronze teammates and is unable to take care of the Empress. It is a good time to evacuate.
Without thinking too much, he turned decisively and headed for the open sea. He already had a ship, a team of people, and a navigational chart. There was no reason to stay and fight. Anyway, winning or losing is Sao Feng's business. Even if a miracle happens and he wins this naval battle, he won't gain anything.
As soon as the Empress sailed away from the battlefield, the ship on the other side where Sao Feng was was followed by a flag signal. Like Barbossa, Sao Feng also chose a strategic retreat. Both parties had the same idea.
So, don’t overestimate the integrity of the pirates. They do things like betraying their teammates better than anyone else!
The Empress took the lead and sailed away from the battlefield, followed by three or five pirate ships. The warship discovered their intention to escape, stopped shelling and quickly turned to pursue. The warship occupies the upper hand and can enter and withdraw from the battle at will. To put it bluntly, it has an advantage whether it is chasing or escaping.
Those who get together will only be caught in one fell swoop, and the pirate ships scatter and flee, betting that their luck will be better than that of their companions.
Russell was unlucky. The Queen was Sao Feng's flagship and was a key target of attention. It was targeted by the fourth-level sailing battleship, also the flagship, and was aggressively chased from behind.
"Captain Barbossa, think of a way quickly, those bastards are about to catch up."
"That's right, why not stop and fight with them? We have a chance of winning in the boarding battle!"
There is no chance of winning in a boarding battle!
Barbossa rolled his eyes. If the immortal body was still there, the boarding battle would indeed have a chance of winning, but the Chinese pirates on the ship were all flesh and blood, so the boarding battle was not considered.
Boarding battles originated from early rowing boats. The naval battles at that time were simple and crude. They lined up in a row to collide with each other, and then the two sides joined the boarding and faced each other in hand-to-hand combat.
With the gradual upgrade of the range and power of artillery, boarding battles are gradually withdrawing from the stage of history. Under normal circumstances, there are only two possibilities for boarding, which are to use up the ammunition and capture the enemy ship.
"You bastards, get back to your posts, load up your cannons, and stop wandering around on the deck."
Barbossa would not consider a boarding battle. The fourth-class sailing battleship has a capacity of 350 people. The number of soldiers, combat quality, and weapons and equipment are stronger than those of pirates. Unless the overall situation is determined, he will not take the initiative to board a warship.
"But Barbossa, the warship is too fast and we can't escape."
Barbossa narrowed his eyes: "Then throw out the cargo in the cabin, leaving no one behind."
Pirates, look at me, I look at you, swallowed and said: "There are only rum and cannonballs in the cabin, which one should I throw?"
Why is there rum on Chinese pirate ships?
Barbossa's balls ached extremely, and he missed his Black Pearl very much at this time. As expected, being fast was more important to being a pirate.
"Barbossa, you are talking. What should we do?"
"Of course it's about throwing cannonballs. Do you still want me to teach you?"
After Barbossa yelled at the pirates, he turned to look at the warship speeding behind him, narrowed his eyes slightly, and muttered to himself: "My luck is really bad today. When was the last time I was so unlucky... Well, it was... It’s time for Jack!”
"Chichi~~" The undead monkey jumped on Barbossa's shoulder, tilting his head in confusion.
"It's not you, it's another Jack."
The pirates shouted slogans and poured boxes of cannonballs into the sea, but the warships behind them were still pursuing them. If this trend continued, they would have no chance of escaping.
Throw away the rum or throw away the life?
Just as the pirates were struggling with the multiple-choice questions, the wind direction on the sea changed drastically, and a hurricane suddenly rolled up.
The fourth-class sailing battleship suffered an unfortunate disaster. The main mast that was hit by the shell broke off. The cables connected to the main mast became entangled with other masts, and all of them broke off dramatically. Only the bare deck of the entire warship was left.
"Oh oh oh----"
Cheers filled the sky on the Queen, and many people knelt down to thank God for his appearance. Russell stood on the side of the ship, dumbfounded. If it was an accident, it would be too coincidental!
The scene just now was truly a miracle. He was ready to stuff Jason into the cannon, but he never thought that the warship would collapse on its own before he even used the knife.
What, you said the barrel is too thin and Jason can’t fit it in?
It's very simple, just divide Jason into several pieces and stuff it in.
Jason: (._.)
"Look what I'm doing, you said you're afraid of water!" Russell pushed Jason aside behind him. Without the threat of the warship, it was time to consider where to go next.
With Barbossa at the helm, this ship will definitely sail to Davy Jones's Hell, but that place is very evil. Russell would rather join Sao Feng first than wade through this muddy water.
But the reality is always beyond Russell's control. As far as the sea level can be seen, a fleet of dozens of warships is slowly approaching.
The fleet of the East India Company is larger than before, including many third-class sailing battleships.
If you encounter it, you will die!
Barbossa put down his binoculars and turned the steering wheel sharply to the left to deviate from the course. Behind him was the port with flames spreading and black smoke rising into the sky. In front of him was the East India Company fleet, which was speeding towards him. He had no choice.
Because the distance pursued by the warship was too far, the Queen had lost contact with Sao Feng's ship, and Russell did not force Barbossa to turn. Now that God has made the choice for him, he should go to the Demon Prison and meet Jack to trigger the world mission.
"Jake's feet are greased. His escape skills and luck attributes are all at MAX. Maybe if I miss this opportunity, I won't see him again." Russell thought like this, and instantly felt that the initiative had returned to his own hands.
That's right, he went to the Demon Prison on his own initiative, it was not God's arrangement.
Jason followed Russell step by step, and the two returned to the captain's cabin. At the corner of the cabin aisle, Russell smelled the scent of magic.
There's a magician on board!
Russell's eyes flashed, and he led Jason around the corner. A woman with dark skin, sloppy brown curly hair, and animal skins appeared directly in front of her.
【Ding! 】
[The host contacts the plot character Calypso, triggers the lottery link, and gets three lottery opportunities. Do you want to draw now? 】
Calypso! ?
Russell recited the name silently in his mind and continued to move forward without changing his expression. When passing by Calypso, he smiled and nodded: "Hello, wizard!"
Calypso... it should be said to be Tia Doma. The goddess was sealed in the human body and is currently called this name. She also smiled and nodded: "Hello, wizard!"
Her smile was a little oozing. Even though her smile was full of kindness, just like a flower, the black teeth and the unknown black liquid left at the corners of her mouth when she spoke were a bit creepy.
The two nodded as a greeting, and Russell continued to move forward. Tia Doma looked at Jason who was following him with interest. The unabashed gaze made Jason very uncomfortable, to the point where his soul was numb. Somewhat restless.
Russell entered the captain's cabin and when he turned around to close the door, he could still see her meaningful smile.
"This woman... makes people feel... not very comfortable." Russell didn't know how to describe that feeling. In short, it was uncomfortable. At this time, he also realized that the strange hurricane just now was Tia... Doma moved her hands and feet.
Tia Doma is a sealed god, and her true form is Calypso, the goddess of the ocean. Although the goddess's power is sealed, her memory is still there. Relying on these memories, she is still a powerful wizard who cannot be underestimated, powerful enough to resurrect the dead, such as Barbossa.
"System, start Calypso's three draws!"
The goddess of the sea is a bad name in Greek mythology, similar to the goddess of the sea, the goddess of sea water, the goddess of the ocean, etc. You can't even count them on ten fingers, so you don't need to pay too much attention to the name of Calypso. .
However, although Calypso is not famous, her father is very famous.
Atlas, the giant who holds up the sky!
Her second uncle is even more famous, the first generation fire man - Prometheus.
Her grandfather is one of the twelve main gods of the Titans, her great-grandfather is Uranus, the sky god, and Gaia, the earth goddess, is her great-grandmother. Her family is very prominent.
As for the relationship between Calypso and Zeus, it is more complicated. Because of the seeder attribute of Dragon Zeus Aotian, she is both the niece of Zeus, the grandniece of Zeus, and the cousin of Zeus. It is more likely that she is a cousin. aunt.
What Russell cares about is not her life experience, but the system's prompt tone. 'Calypso' is not 'Tia Doma'. The difference between a god and a sealed human body is huge.
[Character Card: Calypso (Ocean Goddess)]
[Skill Card: Big Tsunami (please imagine the disaster movie scene by yourself)]
[Skill Card: Maelstrom (same as above)]
After getting three powerful cards, Russell is even more looking forward to the trip to the Trident. Maybe he can get the figure of Poseidon.
"Hey, I have a hunch, this wave will definitely make a profit!"
