Chapter 183 Defeat the [Viper]!
"Is that... the Viper?"
Hearing the sound from the deck, Feiya also walked out of the cabin and looked at the mechanical ship on the sea in surprise.
In his pale golden pupils, the current appearance of the Viper was reflected.
-It completely abandoned the original wooden structure, and the masts and sails were completely removed, replaced by chimneys with thick smoke.
A larger hull, brand new steel plates, and obviously thickened armor...
All of this shows that the ship has undergone an overall strengthening and transformation.
And on the deck, you can also see a large number of advanced steam devices, and even a few steam figures patrolling on it.
Feiya frowned slightly: "This ship has become a little different."
Aside, the bronze dragon Xiange raised his chin proudly: "No matter how different it is, it can't compare to the captain's Black Swan!"
"It's just a small fish boat!"
"Small fish~!"
Xia En glanced at Xiange with a strange expression.
During this period, this little dragon has also undergone considerable changes.
First of all, its scales have become smoother and more delicate, and the mysterious texture of bronze has become more obvious, and the secret power can be vaguely seen flowing.
The pair of small horns on the top of the head has become more prominent and looks a bit majestic.
Secondly, it is the temperament of Xian Ge.
Under the dual effects of the temptation of gold coins and the deterrence of force, Xia En's training plan has been implemented very smoothly.
At present, Xian Ge has established a considerable sense of belonging to the [Black Swan], and her attitude towards other crew members is no longer so arrogant.
But for other humans and ships, Xian Ge still regards them as trash.
This is her inherent arrogance, which cannot be reversed for a while.
Overall, Xian Ge's training is on the right track.
The only regret is...
Perhaps because of the special race of "Bronze Dragon", Xian Ge's body shape has not changed much.
Xia En originally wanted to try the feeling of being a dragon knight!
These thoughts passed through Shane's mind and were thrown aside.
The most important thing at this time was how to deal with the overhauled [Viper].
After a brief thought, Shane asked Xiange to go back to the cabin, and then waved to the [Siren] not far away.
Soon, Alyssa came to the deck of the [Black Swan] with the help of space teleportation.
This female captain with Siren blood is a very smart person. After seeing the [Viper] in the distance, she took the initiative to speak.
"Captain Shane, are you going to attack the [Viper]?"
Shane nodded: "Yes."
After the collapse of [Blood Moon Secret Realm], he has always remembered the revenge of the [Viper] chasing him all the way.
In fact, Shane went to [Silver Moon Island] last time, he originally wanted to sink the [Viper], but he didn't expect that the other party was not in the port.
Now that I think about it, the reason why the [Viper] left [Silver Moon Island] was probably to remodel the hull.
Hearing this, Alyssa reminded carefully.
"As far as I know, the [Viper] went to [Minghai Island] two months ago and underwent a comprehensive renovation at the dock there."
"Not only that, the captain of the ship was replaced by a third-level secret pather of the blood clan, and a large number of crew members were replaced."
"Both the firepower and the combat effectiveness of the crew are no longer the same as before."
"If Captain Shane wants to take action, please be careful."
Shane searched in his mind and remembered the information about the island of [Minghai Island].
This was one of the islands that jointly wanted the [Black Swan].
Obviously, it is also one of the strongholds of the blood clan.
The characteristic of [Minghai Island] is that there are several highly skilled shipyards, and there are many shipbuilders on the island. Many famous large ships are from [Minghai Island].
After the transformation of [Ninghai Island], [Viper] can indeed be said to be a completely different ship from the past.
However...
[Black Swan] has definitely surpassed it in growth!
"Only level three?"
After simply collecting some information, Shane no longer hesitated and showed a flamboyant smile on his face.
"[Black Swan], full speed ahead!"
"End the battle within ten minutes!"
Alyssa was dumbfounded. Didn't she already emphasize the danger of [Viper]?
Why did Shane seem to give the order decisively?
And when he turned to look at the other crew members on his ship, no one expressed any objection. Instead, they were all ready to fight.
For a moment, Alyssa couldn't figure out whether there was something wrong with her or the people on the ship.
But she still added weakly.
"If you need any help, feel free to contact me."
"At least the [Siren] can provide some firepower support..."
Shayne thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll ask Captain Alyssa to keep an eye on the nearby ships."
……
……
Shane's instructions were not aimless.
As they went deeper into the [Magnetic Mine Sea], the number of ships on the nearby sea surface was visibly increasing.
Among them were pirate ships, the exclusive ships of the island governor, and some ships of unknown origin.
The temptation of [Norwich Treasure] was evident.
Everyone wanted to grab a piece of the pie before the federal army arrived.
In order to prevent them from intervening in this naval battle, it was undoubtedly a correct decision to let Alyssa keep a close eye on it.
In fact.
At this time, several nearby ships had noticed the unusual movements of the [Black Swan].
On a steamship that looked particularly shabby.
"Hey, Captain Lindrick, what does that ship want to do?"
The first mate of the ship looked in the direction of the [Black Swan] in surprise and exclaimed in a low voice.
"It's speeding up... and it's speeding towards the Viper!?"
"Could it be that it wants to challenge the Viper?"
The captain named Lindrek opened his eyes, and a strange color flashed in his cloudy eyes.
He was very short, but his neck and wrists were very thick, and his gray hair grew on his head like weeds.
This captain was actually a dwarf.
"If I remember correctly, that ship... should be the Black Swan, right?"
Another new crew member who had just boarded the ship muttered: "But hasn't it sunk? How could it appear in this sea area?"
The first mate waved his hand disapprovingly: "No one can tell whether the news at sea is true or false."
"But the Viper is not easy to mess with. It just went to Minghai Island for an overhaul recently, right?"
"And it has a new captain. What's his name?"
Lindrek answered casually: "Hasen."
"Yes, yes, that's Hassen! I heard he's a third-level vampire."
The first mate's eyes rolled around and looked at the captain beside him.
"This is going to be a good show."
"Captain, should we wait until they are both defeated before..."
Although this steamship is small and broken, and the equipment on board is so shabby that it makes people feel sorry for it, it would be a big mistake if anyone underestimates them because of this.
But facing the first mate's proposal, Lindrek remained calm and said lightly.
"Let's see, the situation may not be as simple as you think."
Lindrek was patient, but several ships in the surrounding waters had already smelled the taste of profit and gradually moved in this direction.
Moreover, since the [Black Swan] had disappeared from the Seven Seas for a while, and the [Viper] had been strengthened in recent days, and several pirate ships were sunk by it...
Most people thought that the [Black Swan] was probably not the opponent of the [Viper].
But soon, the people on these ships were surprised to find that the [Black Swan] was unusually fast!
This ship, which was mainly black, burst out with surging and powerful power in an instant, rushing towards the [Viper] with a high whistle.
In the eyes of everyone, it almost turned into a black shadow!
The waves separated to both sides, and the strong wind expanded in all directions.
This speed is beyond the crew's understanding of the ship!
Moreover, as the [Black Swan] charged, its surface gradually revealed a terrifying aura.
The fish and sea beasts in the surrounding seas all seemed to be severely frightened and fled in a panic away from the ship.
At this time.
Even if the crew of [Viper] was slow, they also noticed the approach of danger.
Captain Hassen stood on the deck, looking at the black ship speeding, not surprised but happy, with a smile on his lips.
"It turned out to be [Black Swan]!"
"It seems that God wants to give me this reward!"
[Black Swan] has been missing for almost two months, but the blood clan's reward has not been withdrawn.
In their words, they want to see the person alive or the body dead!
It can be seen that the blood clan hates [Black Swan] deeply.
Hasen knew that if he killed the Black Swan, he would not only get a bounty, but also the attention of the bigwigs in the clan.
Maybe he could get some precious treasures to improve his bloodline.
Not to mention, according to rumors, Feiya of the Black Swan was also a vampire of high rank.
His blood should taste sweet, right?
Thinking of this, Hasen couldn't help but flash a trace of greed in his eyes.
He decisively ordered the crew around him: "Everyone, prepare for battle!"
"If they dare to rush towards us so directly, let them taste our power!"
Hearing this, the crew roared excitedly.
Among this batch of newly replaced crew members, a considerable number are vampires.
They have long been thirsty for blood.
At this time, since there is blood food delivered to their door, how can they not be excited?
Among the crew, only the first mate behind Hasen showed hesitation.
This first mate was actually the former captain of the [Viper], but after Hasen came, he naturally became the first mate.
He had met the [Black Swan] several times and knew that this ship was not so easy to deal with, so he carefully persuaded.
"Captain Hasen, we'd better be careful."
"That [Black Swan] sank the [Blood Duke] and even hit the [Silver Moon Island]."
"Also, it looks a little different from before..."
"Hehe..."
Hasen's sneer interrupted the first mate's persuasion: "So what if it sank the [Blood Duke]?"
"The current [Viper] is much stronger than the original [Blood Duke]."
"Besides, I'm not that stupid woman Duke Nova. Just a [Black Swan], watch me bomb it down!"
Hasen turned his head and asked, "Is the [Red Snake Cannon] ready?"
The sweaty gunner nodded and said, "It's fully charged and can be fired at any time!"
"Then... fire!"
With Hasen's order, the main gun at the front of the [Viper] suddenly lit up with blood-colored patterns.
Driven by steam and secret power, the light of blood continued to accumulate, emitting a heart-pounding breath.
This main gun called [Red Snake Cannon] is actually a special weapon driven by secret power.
The fact that this main gun can be installed on the [Viper] is enough to show the importance that the blood clan attaches to this ship.
However, when the [Red Snake Cannon] was about to accumulate to the extreme, a unique roar suddenly sounded on the sea.
Boom——
I saw a thick beam of light, at a speed that was difficult to capture with the naked eye, crossing the sea and heading straight for the [Viper].
In an instant, Hasen felt a deep sense of danger in his heart.
He did not hesitate and forced the [Red Snake Cannon], which was not fully prepared, to fire.
The scarlet beam shot out from the muzzle and collided violently with that beam.
If the [Red Snake Cannon] had accumulated to the extreme, it might be able to hold on for a while.
But now, it didn't even have a second to gain time before it was swallowed by the thicker and bigger beam.
At this moment, the world suddenly fell silent.
The people on the surrounding ships stared blankly at the beam that crossed the sea and pierced the hull of the Viper.
The seawater below the beam evaporated on a large scale, and even formed a short cavity.
This is the power of the [Magic Light Penetration Cannon]!
This shot alone dispelled the greed of the crew on the sea.
However, the offensive of the [Black Swan] has not ended yet.
Although the [Magic Light Penetration Cannon] left a huge hole that penetrated the front and back of the Viper's hull, it did not sink it directly.
——This was a deliberate move by Shane.
This is different from the situation of defeating the [Blood Duke] with the weak. Now that they have a combat power that exceeds the opponent, they must try their best to preserve the integrity of the [Viper].
Because...
This ship is already Shane's trophy!
After the beam dissipated, the Black Swan had already approached the side of the Viper.
Then, the thick and dark ramming horn hit the side of the Viper.
Boom! ! !
The Viper's hull shook violently, and the deck tilted to the other side, causing the crew to scream.
Just this one shot and one collision, the Viper lost most of its combat power.
Then, Shane's voice came from above.
"Put down your weapons and surrender immediately!"
"I can still spare your lives!"
Just when the crew was in doubt, Hassen rushed to the height and roared at the same time.
"Go to hell!"
Boom!
Shane kicked casually, and Hassen's body fell into the sea at a faster speed than when he came, causing a splash of water.
"Now, who else wants to resist?"
Shane looked down at the people below coldly.
For a moment, there was silence all around, and no one dared to look him in the eyes.
