Chapter 34: Pirates
On the coast of Pontos, it is said that Pontos, the son of the sea, sent the city builder Ronamus and others ashore here.
Walking along the coast to the southernmost point is the southernmost part of the Salia Peninsula, the fishing port of Tsmali, which is the place of sacrifice promised to the children of the sea, and also the destination of Ace's trip.
Ace's carriage was walking along the dirt road along the coast, and the carriage bumped non-stop on the potholed dirt road.
He was driving the carriage leisurely, looking at the seascape on the coast, busy with the fishermen, this was the first time he saw the sea. According to a short and skinny boy from an unnamed village just passed by, murlocs and pirates are prevalent in this sea area, and they often go ashore to rob.
Ace chose the path that was most likely to be robbed, hoping to meet a small group of murlocs or pirates unexpectedly.
In the past few weeks, he has been walking in the wilderness, and he has not encountered a few low-level monsters. I met quite a few ordinary beasts, and they all became his kebabs.
There are no new low-level monsters, and it is impossible to find new runes. Ace decided to walk around the coast to see if he could meet a small group of pirates or murlocs.
Sea pirates are ready-made living materials, strong in body and full of evil, just suitable for experiments, whether it is anatomy or testing medicine.
Murlocs and humans often conflict, and their body structure is completely different from humans, so it is also a good choice to capture them for research.
Every once in a while, Ace activates a spell, secondary ultrasonic perception, to scan the surrounding creatures within a radius of 500 meters.
When the spell was turned on for the fifth time, the world turned black and white, flashed before Ace's eyes quickly, and finally found, three double-oared wooden boats, this kind of boat has five oars on each side, a rudder, and eleven people in each boat , suitable for coastal and offshore navigation.
There were thirty-three pirates in total, most of them were wearing leather armor and holding heavy axes, while five or six were wearing chain armor, helmets, and swords and shields.
The nearby fishermen escaped desperately in their boats, and the pirates ignored them. These miserable fishermen had no money. They had received news from the eyeliner that a carriage of a university student was passing by, and they were going to do a big job. A big meat ticket.
In Ace's perception, there is only the picture, and he cannot hear the content of the conversation. He still didn't know that he was also spotted by the prey, and who was the hunter had to depend on his own ability.
Ward, you take a group of people and run to the rocky pile in front of the road and set up a tripping rope to ambush. Becky, take a group of people around and fix the tripping rope to prevent the meat from escaping. The rest follow me, listen Said that the meat ticket is coming here, we went straight to the dirt road, and drove the carriage to the rock pile.
A tall pirate in a nose-protecting helmet ordered.
Ow! We're going to use the skulls of scholars as bowls!
Several pirates howled loudly and quickly dispersed to act.
In Ace's perception, the pirates fixed the wooden boat and quickly divided into three teams. One team went to ambush at the rock pile, the other team went around, and the last team came straight to the carriage.
Being stalked, or inexperienced, even pirates are not to be underestimated, Ace thought.
He stopped the carriage, jumped up, and jumped onto the roof. The spell book was opened against the wind, and the pages were turned quickly. The mental power inspired the phantom to stare at the card, and the spell model quickly lit up. The magic power that was almost visible to the naked eye condensed to form some kind of mysterious rune structure, which narrowed into Ace's eyes.
Ace's eyes exude a magical rhythm, and the rune structure continues to grow and die with the rhythm. His eyes stare at the pirates who are coming straight. Suddenly, the pirates feel their world spinning. The carriage in front of them disappears, replaced by a The huge monster, with tentacles all over its body, made a terrible cry, terrifying and disgusting.
The pirates hurriedly avoided the pursuit of the monsters. They didn't know why they felt extremely panicked, their thoughts were full of distractions, and their companions suddenly disappeared after a few steps.
The tall and strong pirate, wearing a nose-protecting helmet, looked in panic at the monster that suddenly appeared in front of him, in human form, all in pitch black, holding a big black ax and rushing towards him.
The tall and strong pirate rolled down,
Narrowly dodging the deadly axe, at this time two more pitch-black monsters appeared, he gritted his teeth and charged straight away, the shield hit, the dagger was inserted, the pitch-black monster fell down, and howled with unknown meaning .
The tall and strong pirates were encouraged, and in one go, they killed two more dark monsters.
Ace looked at everything in front of him with satisfaction, went straight to his own pirates, and rushed to the pirates who circled behind. The two sides fought together, and the tall and strong pirates killed several people in a row.
It seems that it won't be long before the end, and the pirates ambushing in the pile of rocks also became dizzy after being controlled by their own phantom. The actual combat effect of this spell is outstanding.
Ace's phantom gazing spell has added sound runes, magic crystal runes and thinking runes. After improvement, the effect of phantom manipulation becomes more powerful.
The creatures stared at by the eyes instantly enter the will test, and those whose mental strength is lower than their own basically fall into illusions.
The inductive effect brought by the inducing runes, because of the fear of the runes, the panicked person, and the distracted thoughts of the controlled person because of the active thinking runes, fell into the false world constructed by Ace and completed it by himself.
Thirty-three experienced pirates, a force that could fight nearly 20-30 veterans, were easily defeated.
Ace was very satisfied with the effect of the improved phantom gaze, and made a will check every fifteen seconds for five minutes. Once the will check failed, he would fall into an illusion.
Real sounds and sights induce the fear in the gazed person, active thinking causes the gazed person to be unable to distinguish the illusory reality, and the good and bad feelings are manipulated wantonly. This is Ace's strongest range of spells, which can be very easily Defeat a group of ordinary fighters.
For nobles, Ace has not actually fought. But as long as you can't pass the will test, you will fall into the hallucinations, be manipulated and sensed at will, and end up the same as pirates.
This spell has no effect on objects whose mental strength is higher than one's own, and is basically invincible to objects whose mental strength is lower than one's own, unless the opponent has a calming or magical object that is immune to illusions.
Ace himself once interfered with the magic rune to get rid of the illusion of the hallucinogenic eye. After he studied it in depth, he realized how lucky he was at that time.
The barbarian shaman had almost exhausted his mental power to partially activate the rune structure in the hallucinogenic eye, and he was completely unable to continue to manipulate, guide and suppress the enemy who had been caught in the illusion.
The strongest part of the illusion spell is the manipulation of the caster, through all kinds of real and false illusions, playing with the opponent in the palm of his hand.
If the illusion is manipulated by the caster, the magic disturbance is likely to be prevented by the caster, making it extremely difficult to break free from the illusion.
The fighting of the pirates came to an important end, and the tall and strong pirate stood alone in the pool of blood, proving his strength. Ace walked over slowly, stopping at the maximum casting distance of the secondary spell.
The phantom in front of Gao Zhuang Haikou gradually disappeared, and he was horrified to find that the dark monsters had turned into fellow pirates, and all his companions fell into a pool of blood. He screamed in despair.
Ace gently flipped through the spell book in his hand, tapped one of the cards with his slender fingers, the calming spell was activated, the runes on the spell card flickered, condensed into a halo around Ace, and then followed Ace Guided by Si's spirit, he entered the body of the tall pirate.
Then Ace flipped a few pages lightly, inspiring the charming creature, the runes on the spell card flickered, the spell model gathered magic power, phantoms rushed over, and the tall and strong pirate who had just calmed down was easily controlled.
