Arknights is too real, right?

Three years ago, Xia Feng was also attacked by [Dark Green] on the sea. At that time, he tried his best but ended up being seriously injured.

Three years later, even if there were more than a hundred times more monsters than at that time, he would not be injured again.

Now, he is able to skillfully use the power of the black and white twins. The previously invincible monster has become a fragile target in his eyes at this moment.

"puff!"

With a sword, he cut off the monster that jumped onto the deck first. Xia Feng took two steps forward and held down another huge head that was about to climb up.

"boom!"

The surging black power exploded in the palm of his hand, and the ferocious fish head split into pieces in an instant.

Then, like a whack-a-mole, Xia Feng reacted quickly and struck with a sure kill, waving the Red Demon Sword to kill the climbing monsters one by one.

On the other side of the deck, Kuroba's companions also joined the battle.

Although they are not as violent as Xia Feng, after three years of growth, everyone is now very powerful in combat.

Mr. Xiao can block it all by himself. The Qingyun Sword in his hand can only see its shadow but not its form. If the sword passes by, the monster's head will be somewhere else.

The red knife and Lapland cooperated with each other, and the flame sword and the silver moon scimitar were devastating. Whenever a monster climbed onto the deck, it would definitely not survive and would soon be chopped into a broken corpse.

Razer used his shield to cover in front of everyone, and at the same time took out his Originium gun and fired at the monster's eyes. Franka's thermite sword was also very lethal.

Next to them, the three wolf brothers were holding lightning cutters, equally unafraid.

Under everyone's 360-degree no-dead-end defense, the deck of the No. 1 ship was impregnable, almost killing as many as came up.

However, other ships approaching it did not have such defensive capabilities.

Although the elite members of the Royal Knights are also masters, their usual training is basically to use humans as enemies, and they have never fought against monsters that are far larger than themselves.

At first, multiple people working together could kill the monsters that were about to climb onto the deck, but as time went by, some fish slipped through the net.

Whenever a monster successfully climbs onto the deck, it will immediately cause massive casualties. In order to divide the troops for siege, gaps will appear in other directions of the ship.

[Dark Green] Although it is not a high-level deep sea creature, the scales attached to its body are very hard, which often cannot be broken by ordinary soldiers' machetes. Moreover, this monster's physical strength is very powerful, and combined with its sharp claws, as long as As soon as you board the deck, you will see a BOSS-level presence.

In this way, as long as the first one climbs onto the deck, the second, third, and fourth will soon appear, until the situation gets out of hand.

Gradually, the ship's offensive and defensive battle entered a fever pitch, with roars and screams of fighting intertwined.

On the No. 1 ship, after Xia Feng killed more than a dozen monsters in one go, he took time to glance in the direction of the island.

As he expected, even though the battle had been going on for a long time, monsters were still jumping into the sea one after another on the island's rocks and swimming toward them quickly.

If his guess is correct, this island is the "birth island" of deep-sea creatures like [Dark Green], and the actual number of survivors on the island will far exceed his expectations.

In the final analysis, the killing is absolutely endless.

If the whole team speeds up their evacuation at this time, the battle will definitely become more difficult due to the rocking of the ship's hull. However, if the stalemate continues, they may be killed.

At this time, Nanfeng's anxious voice came.

"Xia Feng, what should I do? Ships No. 4 and 5 are going to be unable to withstand it!"

After thinking for a short time, Xia Feng gritted his teeth.

"Master Xiao, Hongdao, you go to other ships to help. Nanfeng, order the whole team to speed up, let's leave the vicinity of the island!"

Nanfeng continued to shout uncertainly.

"This kind of thing swims too fast. I'm afraid it won't be easy to get rid of. It will catch up."

"I can't control that much anymore. As long as you leave the island, the number of subsequent monsters will decrease. Just listen to me and do it like this!"

"OK!"

Because of the contraction of the previous formation, the distance between the ships was kept very close. Master Xiao and Hong Dao easily jumped onto the precarious ship to assist in the defense.

Soon, Nanfeng's order was conveyed to the control rooms of each ship, maintaining the triangular formation. Driven by the energy of the Origin Stone, the entire fleet of ships reached full speed again.

As the absolute main force of his own team, Xia Feng went to the ship at the back of the team and intercepted and killed the chasing monsters with one person.

With the support of the "Origin Crystal", the fully charged Red Demon Sword erupted into torrents of black energy, sweeping through and tearing the monster's body apart.

However, because the hull of the ship is too large and the formation is too wide, Xia Feng still cannot take care of everything.

In this way, the fierce pursuit, defense, and attack lasted for more than ten nautical miles.

Until the outline of the fourth island gradually faded away behind, and after paying a huge price, the dark green creature that was chasing him finally disappeared.

According to preliminary statistics, the Royal Knights suffered more than a thousand casualties in this battle. Two of the ships basically lost the ability to sail at full speed due to damage to their hulls and power systems.

At this point, only 5 of the 10 ships at the time of departure were left.

After getting out of danger, the deck was in a mess, with the remains of monsters and the corpses of comrades everywhere. The injured soldiers even crowded the medical room on the ship.

The clouds in the north are getting closer, and the lingering sun is about to disappear.

After the fierce battle, Nan Feng was covered in blood and looked a little tired.

"Xia Feng, what should we do next?"

Xia Feng put the Red Demon Sword back behind his back, supported the guardrail of the deck with both hands, and exhaled heavily.

what to do?

According to conservative principles and logic, when nearly half of the ships were lost, they should probably retreat.

However, it was precisely because they sacrificed so many people that they reached this point. If they return, there will undoubtedly be more unnecessary sacrifices next time.

Moreover, after the battle just now, he found that the Originite skin on his neck was expanding at a speed that was almost visible to the naked eye. At this moment, the entire chest was covered with terrifying crystals.

Sure enough, this "Origin Crystal" refined according to the records in "Earth and Wind" is too damaging to the human body.

If he retreated now, he was not sure whether he could survive until the next battle.

Standing on the edge of the deck, Xia Feng stared deeply at the end of the sea.

"Retreat."

Nan Feng did not expect Xia Feng to be decisive.

"Have you thought about it? Do you really want to retreat?"

"Well, everyone retreats, detours from the south, returns to the reef area to meet up with the other three ships, and then you all return to the west coast of Sami."

Noticing the "you" in Xia Feng's words, Nan Feng was stunned.

"Hey, what do you mean, what about you?"

Looking at the sea ahead, Xia Feng's voice was very calm.

"Put down a small speedboat for me and send me here. I will walk the rest of the way myself."

Hearing these words, Nan Feng excitedly grabbed Xia Feng's shoulders, stared and shouted.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Why do you want to leave on your own? Do you think we are helping you, bastard!"

"I'm not trying to show off, I'm serious"

"You're talking nonsense!"

Nanfeng's palms were very strong, gripping his shoulders tightly.

"If we want to move forward, move forward together, if we want to retreat, retreat together, black wings, live and die together!"

[At that time, I didn’t know what was going on in my mind. Maybe I was moved by the so-called friendship and made a stupid and wrong decision. Or maybe, because I had created the so-called miracle, I stupidly believed in it. Miracles may not be that difficult. I foolishly believe that as long as we are together, we can change the world with our own hands. 】

[When Nanfeng grabbed my shoulders and said those passionate words, it would be nice if I knocked him to the ground with a punch, and then drove the speedboat away from the fleet without looking back. Maybe that would be the way to do it. The most correct choice. 】

[However, I didn’t do that. I foolishly believed that a miracle would happen. 】

[It is precisely because of this wrong choice that the world in my eyes collapsed. 】
