Casting spells

He really didn't understand why these pirates always liked to give themselves or others some messy nicknames.

Old Banku nodded solemnly: "That's right! Undead Captain Lyons is one of the most powerful pirates in this sea area! It is said that he can resurrect and manipulate dead corpses, and he can also make living corpses retain all the fighting spirits of their previous lives. Skill. Get ready to fight, Mr. Zhang. If you are caught up, the only thing we can count on is you. If the worst happens, please take Miss Joanna and leave, I will risk my life to fight for you a little time."

"Hehe, don't be so pessimistic, I don't think a mere pirate ship can pose any threat to me."

The voice just fell!

Zhang Cheng turned around and said to the nervous girl next to him: "Dear captain, don't you want to make a name for yourself in this sea? Now is a chance! Not only should we not run away, but we should turn the bow of the boat to meet him." , kill all the guys on that pirate ship who dared to resist, and use blood and death to tell everyone that this sea is about to usher in a new owner."

"You mean... to fight?" Joanna's eyes lit up immediately, adrenaline was secreted in a large amount, and an excited blush appeared on her originally fair face.

That's right!

Why run away?

Didn't he secretly run away from home to prove to his father that even if he didn't get married, he still had enough capital to inherit the noble surname of Lester.

Perhaps, now is the perfect time to prove it.

fighting!

Instead of running away!

Thinking of this, she immediately shouted to the panicked sailors: "Stop running away! Go up! I want to kill the undead captain Lyons!"

"What? Miss, are you crazy?"

"We will die!"

……

9 Chapter Sixty

There is no doubt that the vicious looking pirates on the deck are actually Joanna's servants. Except for a few, most of them have no actual combat experience, let alone fight with the really vicious pirates.

They originally thought that what their young lady said about being a pirate was just running out to relax, and when they got tired of playing, they would go back and continue to live the peaceful and peaceful life before.

But who would have thought that this rebellious girl would actually want to play for real.

"You...how dare you disobey my order?"

Seeing that no one wanted to turn the ship around, Joanna immediately became furious and drew out a rapier that was more decorative than practical. She wanted to stab people several times, but she couldn't do it until the last moment.

"Honey, do you know what you have to do as the captain of a pirate ship?" Zhang Cheng whispered in the girl's ear like a devil.

"What is it?" Joanna suppressed her anger and asked without looking back.

Zhang Cheng smiled and replied meaningfully: "It is to maintain your own authority! You must make everyone fear you! Fear you! Only in this way can you make these desperadoes obey orders. Don't be afraid of killing, this Once you back down at this time, it will make the crew lose their sense of awe, and thus lose their sense of awe."

As the last word fell, Joanna's pupils shrank suddenly, and then, with lightning speed, she stabbed the rapier forward.

puff!

moment!

The sharp point of the sword pierced the neck of an unlucky man.

Even though he tried desperately to cover the wound that was constantly spurting blood, all of this was in vain, and finally fell to the ground convulsing and swallowing his last breath within a few seconds.

More than 40 sailors, including old Banku, stared wide-eyed, as if they couldn't believe it, that noble lady who was a bit naughty and rebellious on weekdays, but was always very kind, actually killed a follower without mercy. My servant for ten years.

Snapped!Snapped!Crack! Crack...

Zhang Cheng applauded softly while applauding: "Beautiful job! The best way to deal with those who dare to challenge your authority is to punish them with pain, blood and death. Now, please try to give them orders again, I guarantee you will get very different results."

"Turn the boat! Immediately! Immediately! Don't make me say it a third time!"

I don't know if it was because of the first murder, Joanna's heart beat several times faster than usual, and a faint magical energy was revealed all over her body.

"Yes! Captain!" Old Banku shivered subconsciously, saluted respectfully, and then quickly turned the rudder, making a 180-degree turn, facing a ship that was more than ten times larger than the ship under his feet. The Sea Serpent rushed up.

……

Because both sides were speeding up, in just ten minutes or so, the two ships were close enough to start a long-range attack.

The ballistas erected on both sides of the deck took the lead, throwing stone bullets the size of an adult's fist, and the crossbowmen also adjusted their angles one after another to cover the enemy's deck.

Of course, as for accuracy...

It’s probably enough to have a little bit of meaning. If you hit it, you make money, and if you miss it, it’s completely reasonable.

This kind of chicken pecking lasted for about two or three rounds, and finally reached the most important part of the gang-jumping battle.

There is no technique at all, basically it is to lower the sail and hit the opponent's ship from the side by virtue of inertia, then throw out the claw, climb up the enemy ship along the rope, and start a bloody and cruel hand-to-hand fight. The winner gets everything, and the loser Those who were caught were locked in the cabin and sold to slave traders when they docked.

However, because Joanna's boat was relatively small, she suffered a big loss when she hit it, and was almost not directly knocked over by the opponent, and many unlucky ones fell into the sea.

The enemy ship only shook slightly, and then began to take advantage of its condescending position to jump down and kill.

In the blink of an eye, about half of the sailors on the deck were already lying in a pool of blood.

During the whole process, Zhang Cheng stood aside and watched, without any intention of making a move.

Because he discovered that the undead captain Lyons was not a supernatural being, but a necromancer from the underground world.

Especially those living corpses that have been embalmed by magic, each one perfectly retains the ability of life, and it is simply a sledgehammer to deal with ordinary sailors.

No wonder it can scare countless people!

"Surrender! Or die! Choose!" Lyons stood on the edge of the deck and issued an ultimatum condescendingly.

Obviously, he wasn't as cruel and bloodthirsty as the rumors said, and he didn't want to do too many unnecessary killings.

After all, in this era of extremely scarce labor force, the price of every healthy slave is quite high, not to mention the beautiful girl like Joanna who looks like aristocrat, who is brought to the Eastern Continent for sale. I believe that many lords Willing to pay big bucks.

Seeing that the remaining survivors on the deck were frightened by the opponent's aura, Zhang Cheng stood up in a leisurely manner, and joked with a playful face: "Surrender? Did you surrender to us?"

"Go! Kill him!" Lioness obviously didn't like someone provoking him, so he directly gave the killing order to his subordinates and living corpses.

But before those vicious pirates reacted, the corpses that were under his control immediately turned their spears and began to frantically attack the surrounding accomplices.

In the blink of an eye, hundreds of people died on the spot, and even Lyons himself was forced to retreat, trying to regain control several times, but ultimately failed.

In desperation, he had no choice but to retreat while releasing soul spells to weaken the living corpses attacking him, and he looked embarrassed.

"Hehe, aren't you going to kill me? Why don't you do it?" Zhang Cheng flashed a short distance, directly stepped over the height difference between the two ships, and suddenly appeared beside the other party, his tone full of mockery.

"Let me go! I am willing to hand over all my wealth to you and pledge my allegiance to you!" Lyons staggered and rolled on the spot to avoid the attack of the living corpse and shouted.
