Chapter 452: Chapter 424 Fishman’s Siege
After an hour of sailing, the Octopus arrived at Fog Reef Bay. At first glance, large patches of rocks lood faintly through the fog, and the currents turned turbulent and eerie. Under normal circumstances, this place would be teeming with Fishn, definitely not a practice ground for current players to venture, but with Brother Fei in the team, and bolstered by a recent victory, all mbers were blindly confident in Da Fei.
However, even so, Da Bing couldn’t help but worry, "The currents here are strong, could there be whirlpools?"
One Sword Eastward shook his head, "There are too many rocks here, which greatly obstruct the flow of water, and it’s not deep, large whirlpools are unlikely."
Da Bing then asked, "By the way, Brother Fei, I’ve always wondered, why does our Chamber of Comrce’s ship encounter whirlpools when we go out to sea?"
Not just whirlpools, but Sea Monsters too! The Dragon Cavalry Chamber of Comrce appeared splendid on the surface but was actually quite ssy; Da Fei really didn’t want to answer this vexing question. It’s because of this vexing Sea God’s Curse that any commissioned sea mission becos inherently more challenging, and it’s a tough challenge with no extra cost, which if leaked, would demotivate the mbers and impact recruitnt, not to ntion being exploited by malicious competitors. In short, there’s no need to let the subordinates know what they shouldn’t.
Da Fei gazed into the mist with a profound look and said, "All I can tell you is that this is a test related to the Sea God, and this mission is extrely challenging. Killing a Demigod was just the beginning, and not sothing you can help with right now. What everyone needs to do now is to level up well and beco true experts on your own!"
Everyone suddenly realized that the Demigod Brother Fei killed last ti was part of this Sea God test mission! They all said, "Brother Fei is truly high-level! Don’t worry, we’ll definitely train hard!"
Da Fei nodded, "Alright, let’s go in."
One Sword Eastward was startled, "Brother Fei, should I still steer?"
Da Fei patted his shoulder and laughed, "Of course, the tougher the mission, the more it tests a person, even if we sink, it’s not a big deal!"
One Sword Eastward nodded, "Got it, Brother Fei!"
In truth, when it ca to steering a ship, Da Fei admitted he wasn’t much better than One Sword Eastward. Additionally, he was multi-tasking, better to hide his weaknesses. As for One Sword Eastward, although he always sched to draw hatred towards Da Fei, he had grand ambitions and would naturally not deliberately ss up on a small boat.
Now, with all crew mbers on high alert, the Octopus cautiously entered the fog filled with rocks. Sharp cries of Fishn intermittently echoed through the fog, and wreckage from broken ships stuck amongst the rocks was visible everywhere.
Da Fei concentrated on controlling the Blood Eagle, circling low for a lookout. After all, the Sea God’s Curse brings storms, whirlpools and huge sea monsters. If whirlpools and storms are unlikely here, then large sea monsters might be a possibility, so caution was paramount.
As the Octopus ventured deeper, they encountered Fishn who all fled. Indeed, standing on a tall ship leisurely shooting arrows at defenseless creatures to reap bundles of Experience is a rare luxury in the ga. Fishn, being a widely distributed, cunning sea race of intelligent creatures, were not easily killed by players.
Ahead lay a low reef plateau with a huge shipwreck quietly stranded.
Da Bing said solemnly, "We’ve arrived, this is the mission’s shipwreck."
One Sword Eastward added, "The water is shallow ahead. The ship can’t go any further, we must swim over."
Da Fei nodded, "Then let’s drop anchor, and get into the water."
As the troop entered the water, the Fishn who had previously fled regrouped in swarms nearby. Da Bing was highly vigilant and instructed the command team to form the lee troop in a circle on the periter.
Anyone who has leveled up by the sea knows how tough and clingy Fishn can be. Even in knee-deep water on the shallows, they could swim low in a breaststroke position to attack the troop’s lower body, avoiding being shot by archers from a distance while taking advantage of aquatic combat to strike the land troops.
Even if Brother Fei’s attack is incredibly fancy and equipped with exaggerated special skills, and even when he has 200 extrely sharp, strongest Secret Archers, there’s still no assurance in dealing with the Fishn’s underwater charge. One could say, the Fishn’s underwater approach simply nullifies the long-range capabilities of land troops!
In fact, among the Six Major Races, there really isn’t a military unit designed specifically to counter the Fishn. Broadly speaking, the land forces don’t have effective ans to deal with the Sea Race because once on the water, the attributes of land forces, especially Attack Speed and Move Speed, are significantly reduced.
Seeing the surrounding Fishn groups gathering more and more densely, Da Bing couldn’t help but exclaim in shock: "Is this for real? There aren’t usually this many Fishn here, right? Could it be a mission?"
What to do? Everyone’s gaze fell on Brother Fei, all waiting for Brother Fei’s command. Because everyone knew that once the team moved away from the ships, the Fishn would surely launch an attack.
Brother Fei was in a state of intense frustration! Damn it, although I’m confident in our defense, these ordinary Fishn surely can’t bite through , and I can outlast them, but my awesoness only protects my own troops, not theirs, right? If everyone dies ssily won’t it affect my glorious leadership image?
At this point, there’s only one solution! Let my troops take the front row! Can this work? Brother Fei checked the attributes of the Secret Archers:
— Secret Archer: Elf Clan Level 3 elite unit, Attack 8, Defense 6, Life 21, Damage 6-9, Attack Speed 13, Move Speed 13, Command Value 2, Recruitnt Cost 547 Gold Coins, Special Skills: Long Range Shooting, Piercing, Knockback, Precision Shooting, Arrow Formation.
base Health points, plus 10 from Brother Fei’s various skill equipnt achievents, making it 31; now with Sea Monster Hunter Health
20%, and Three Major Disease Resistances
15%, it totals 42 points! If led by Selvia, there’s an additional 15% life from the Nun’s boost; essentially, they’re at the health standard of level 4 troops, plus Brother Fei’s 80 points strategic defense, Master-level Defense Skill, and Selvia’s Grandmaster-level Healing Skill, they can stand their ground!
Brother Fei then chuckled and said, "Da Bing, don’t arrange the formation this way. Let my troops take the front!"
mbers of the group gasped, "Is Brother Fei using archers as at shields?"
Brother Fei sighed with a laugh, "What else can we do?"
The level of thinking that Brother Fei was at wasn’t sothing the mbers could understand. Whatever Brother Fei says goes. In the admiration for Brother Fei’s awesoness, the troops adjusted once more.
While Brother Fei looked at the densely surrounded Fishn, his heart sank, wondering if they could hold on. If they held on, that’d be aweso; if not, it would be hilarious. Damn, he’s struggling for reputation now!
Now, with the troop formation complete, Brother Fei’s 200 Secret Archers and 5 level-7 Storm Druids have ford a large defensive circle. Let’s move forward then!
Sure enough, once the team left the Octopus and it was too late to safely retreat onto the ship, Fishn started diving into the water, swarming towards the team like countless giant frogs!
The battle began! Selvia’s blessing golden light covered the outskirts of the Secret Archer Troop, and Anlicia summoned a large group of Water Elent Troops to assist in the battle. Amidst the tumult of spurting blood and surging fish heads, waves of Healing Golden Light ebbed and flowed.
True enough, quite sturdy; not a single Secret Archer fell!
Even frail ranged fighters could be used as a at wall, Brother Fei’s incomprehensive strategy crazily inspired the mbers inside the defensive circle, and for a ti, both veterans and newbies burst forth with vigorous firing and shooting!
Now, Brother Fei could finally breathe a sigh of relief. Given the current situation and Selvia’s Mana maintenance, this battle was bound to be won damage-free. Brother Fei’s glorious image was finally preserved, he was truly aweso after all! Moreover, the new Divine Artifact Mana Source equipnt, combined with Selvia’s Grandmaster-level ditation Skill, had an astounding effect, increasing Mana recovery speed by more than 100%. What a level that was? Once Selvia’s knowledge value increased, the Priest madly refreshing the entire team would no longer be a dream! Wahahahaha!
Just when Brother Fei was feeling imnsely proud, suddenly at the edge of Little Fei’s viewpoint, a large red dot appeared. Brother Fei was shocked, a BOSS? He hurriedly switched to Little Fei’s viewpoint, only to see a huge Fishman grabbing onto the anchor chain of the Octopus, quietly climbing up the ship!
At that instant, Brother Fei was flabbergasted! Holy crap! Why is there such a weirdly sneaky BOSS, not joining the battle but instead sneaking to steal my base! Wait, might this Fishman be specially dispatched by the Sea God’s Curse to destroy the ship?
