Even though he could feel the support of this almost constant blessing, it was still his first time on a ship. No matter how hard he tried, he would always be interrupted by the ups and downs of the shaking.
The sixth sense could block out the bad state of the five senses, but the tilting of the body and the loss of control of the limbs had exceeded the mage's expectations.
"Mr. Mage! The lieutenant's adjutant barely freed a hand to press on Brand's shoulder, but even so, it didn't have much effect. However, another voice came from the gangway,"Sir, I'm here!"”
It was indeed the big guy Marcus. Although he was very big, Marcus was still smart. At the end of the gangway, Marcus, who was lying down, reached out his hands and grabbed the mage's calf, finally fixing the wavering mage in place.
Hurry up and prepare your spells! Brand had completed a double casting in an extreme time. Two completely different spells were thrown at the mainsail, one after the other, with a blink of an eye's difference. The main principle of the Water Breath spell was to condense the water in the atmosphere to kill the enemy. In the stormy sea, the strength was nearly twice as strong as usual, and the huge water column hit the canvas.
Cold rays spread out from the center of the main sail, freezing the water that was about to flow down the sail. However, even the thick and tough sail had many cracks on the water breath, but it was not enough to cause devastating damage.
The low temperature produced by the Cold Ray could not be compared to the power of the black-robed mage, but it was more than enough to freeze the water splashed on the main sail. On the other side, Charles was not someone to be trifled with. Before Brand could urge him, he had already cast the 10th level spell he had prepared for a long time: Spirit Words V Alien Servant. Lava Guard (Curse)
A dazzling flame soared into the sky. The giant Lava Guard, which was as tall as two people, had a rough outline, but one could barely make out its limbs and its head without any facial features. Its entire body was made of scorching lava, and countless sparks fell from its body with every step it took. Fortunately, as a summoner, Charles had a temporary high resistance to the heat emitted by the Lava Guard, and Captain Da Vinci's clothes were steaming in just a few seconds.
Fortunately, Ciel quickly used the weak spiritual connection he had established with the summoned creature to command the giant creature bathed in fire to walk towards the main sail. Otherwise, Da Vinci, who was holding onto the black robe with both hands, would not have an easy time.
As expected of a power that even Advanced Mages could not guarantee. Even a terrifying summoned creature like the Lava Guard could only cause the condensed layer of ice to emit a burst of water vapor when it walked on it. It would not damage the wooden deck under the ice for the time being.
The seemingly clumsy Lava Guard was, after all, huge. A casual step could catch up with a person walking a few steps. In the blink of an eye, it had arrived beside the main mast. The summoned creature raised its hands, and the space between its hands was quickly filled with burning lava that made up its body. The sphere-shaped lava fireball smashed into the frozen canvas, instantly tearing a large hole in the canvas that was somewhat brittle due to the ice.
After repeating the same process, they barely managed to get rid of the sail on the main mast that could not be lowered before the summoned creature's effect ended. As for the other auxiliary sails, the sailors who had prepared the tools cut off the thick ropes on the auxiliary mast to achieve their goal.
" Phew…Hahaha…" The captain, who was so tired that his limbs were weak, finally relaxed. Charles still looked indifferent, but the coldness on his face was much less. It seemed that even if they were in the same industry, they would only be recognized if they had the ability.
Brand patted Marcus, who had already stood up. There was nothing he could do. Marcus was two heads taller than him. The mage, who had only thought of this after reaching out his hand, could only casually pat Marcus on the arm to encourage him. However, the big guy's gaze seemed to be a little off?! Following Marcus 'line of sight, there seemed to be a shadow floating in the sea not far away.!
"Be on guard! Be on guard!" The adjutant also saw this scene. Although he could not confirm what it was, it was definitely not friendly. Da Vinci quickly called a few sailors who had just cut the auxiliary sail over, while he said to the two mages with a serious face,"" Please take shelter in the cabin. Perhaps some large marine creature is also hiding from the sudden tide. Fortunately, the wind and rain have lessened. I'm going to organize the fleet to use ballistae to defend."
While Brand was still hesitating, Charles said," As long as it's not a sea demon, I don't think I'll have to run away in such a sorry state." Brand, who had no choice but to express his support, cursed the black-robed mage in his heart for not knowing what was good for him. You're a level-10 expert, but I'm a rookie Battle Wizard.
In this urgent situation, Da Vinci did not bother with formalities. After receiving the mage's reply, he immediately crawled towards the door leading to the cabin. The sailors who were called over were led by the adjutant to protect the two mages who were drenched but did not care about the next battle. Seeing the respectful expressions of the sailors, Brand's heart skipped a beat.
It seemed that the other escorting warships and supply ships of the fleet had not encountered the same situation as the flagship, the Saint Laurent Flying Fish, which could not lower its main sail. Otherwise, even if two mages with some ability could locate and teleport, they would not have been able to save them. Relying on the three-pronged signal and whistle, the other ships also quickly prepared for the attack. As for the ships that mainly transported supplies, they did not have many crossbows. They simply maintained their current formation and tried to gather at the center of the fleet.
However, although the heavy rain was much less violent than before, the waves continued to hit the ships that barely maintained their formation, causing the people on the ships to be on guard against the incoming sea beasts and have no choice but to run around to operate the ships.
The few black shadows in the sea suddenly jumped out of the water when they were an arrow away from the flagship at the front of the formation. The Saint Laurent Flying Fish was already a medium-sized main warship in the navy. Although the body of this sea monster above the water was not considered bloated, it looked as long as the auxiliary mast.!
With a swoosh, the crossbow shot out a linen cloth that was soaked in alchemical oil. The burning arrow grazed the monster's neck with a wisp of fire. Under the brief illumination of the fire, the people on the ship could see clearly what kind of sea monster it was. It was clearly a medium-sized sea monster with a small number of sea monsters, but it liked to move in groups! However, due to its long neck and slender body, its four limbs were not often seen by people, so it was also called a multi-headed sea snake.
The multi-headed sea snake had a low reproductive ability. It would only lay eggs once every few decades, and each time, it would only lay one to three eggs. A newborn multi-headed sea snake would only have two heads when it was about five or six years old, and it did not have any special abilities. However, once it successfully grew to 20 or 30 years old, it was possible for it to grow a third head. Legend had it that someone had seen a multi-headed sea monster that had grown a fourth or fifth head for more than a thousand years. Perhaps it was just nonsense from panicked sailors, but even a three-headed sea snake was already a nightmare for long-distance voyages.
Its third head could spit out poisonous smoke that could suffocate humans and animals. When it was angry, it could spit out a highly corrosive acid. Ordinary iron sheets could not withstand being soaked in such acid. In an hourglass, the iron sheet would turn black and crack.
The frightened sailors were still naval soldiers. Under the command of their respective captains, they shot out fire arrows as thick as arms. These powerful sea demons were not invulnerable. Although their skin was covered with scales, the arrowheads made of pure steel and the wooden core and iron sheet weighed more than ten pounds. Whether it was the heavy and sharp arrowheads or the alchemical fire oil burning on them, they were quite useful against the flesh and blood bodies of the sea demons.
Brand cursed the black-robed mage's jinx in his heart, but at the same time, he quickly thought of a countermeasure. From the current situation, there were about seven or eight multi-headed sea snakes. It seemed to be a small group. However, due to the fact that they were fighting from the side, it was almost impossible for the other warships to effectively support the flagship. At the same time, the supply ships were not equipped with such burning crossbows to prevent fire. Ordinary wooden crossbows could only cut through the enemy's flesh and could not cause any serious damage.
Countless thoughts ran through his mind, and the black-robed Charles seemed to have been struck by his own jinx. He had yet to recover from his shock. Without hesitation, Brand took advantage of the fact that the multi-headed sea snake at the front had a burning steel arrow on its body, which provided a very good reference. He raised the Song of Destiny from his portal bag and swung it at the snake with an electric shock.
Not to mention the support of his Sixth Sense, even if he were to lock his gaze on it casually, he would not miss such an obvious big target even on such a bumpy sea surface. The electric shock just happened to hit the head and neck of the multi-headed sea snake in the front, and a blue electric arc jumped. It was only then that Charles woke up from his shock. He was a level-10 senior, after all, and the black-robed mage's attack speed was only slightly slower than Brand's. Even without his staff, Charles's Electric Shock seemed to be on par with Brand's previous attack.
The multi-headed sea snake let out a long, sharp roar after being hit by the pure steel arrow and the two spells. The sound was so long and sharp that anyone who heard it could not help but shudder. Perhaps it was trying to send a message to its own kind, the multi-headed sea serpents behind them easily dispersed the somewhat crowded group with the help of the tide, causing Colonel Da Vinci, who was commanding behind the crossbow, to curse at this cunning sea demon.
Perhaps the electric shock had a greater effect on the sirens, but the main target was the middle head, which happened to be able to spit out poisonous smoke and acid. Two grade-4 spells were enough to make a great contribution. The two mages looked at each other and felt that it was too easy.
However, the other multi-headed sea serpents that had sunk into the sea had already rushed to the right side of the ship. Perhaps the magic and heavy arrows had a deterrent effect on them, but the ferocious beasts that did not dare to raise their heads easily actually used their bodies to slam into the ship!
Marcus grabbed the anchor on his back with one hand and hugged his master's waist with the other. The adjutant immediately drew his sword and stabbed it into the deck that was not covered in ice. He held the black-robed mage on the ground with his other hand.
Before he could get up, the impact was followed by another wave. At this moment, it was a heavy blow.
