A three-masted sailboat floated alone on the sea of clouds. A big hole was punched out of the wooden hull, and the damaged edges were uneven. The sides of the ship were covered with knife marks, and sporadic bullet holes penetrated the side of the ship. Blood was scattered around. The mast was tilted aside.
The originally white canvas was now stained red with blood.
Not long after, a sailless boat arrived, and a fierce battle ensued.
Chen Ren raised his head and looked up at the sailboat that had been destroyed by gunfire. His nose twitched slightly, and the pungent blood was so strong that even the sea breeze did not blow it away for a while.
"Let's go up and have a look, there might be survivors." He stepped hard on the deck with his feet, jumped up high, and landed firmly on the side of the three-masted sailboat.
At a glance, the wooden deck was now dyed blood red, and the smell of blood was even stronger than before.
"Is there anyone alive? I am a hunter." He shouted in a deep voice, but the only answer he received was silence.
"Plop, tap." Walking on the deck, the blood that has not yet become thick and caked clings to the soles of the shoes, making a sound.
"It seems that the Cloud Pirates left not long ago." Chen Ren rubbed his chin with one hand and scanned the deck back and forth, hoping to get more clues.
"Gah!" The briquettes who were squatting on their shoulders suddenly made a sound, and their wings pointed in the direction of the broken mast.
Looking in the direction that the briquettes were pointing, there seemed to be nothing special about it. If there was anything unusual about it, it was that there was enough people hugging the thick mast, and the split was actually very smooth.
However, Coal Ball is a rare three-eyed raven from the South China Sea, so it is impossible to mistake it.
He walked to the mast and observed it carefully. The mast was cut from a whole log, and there was nothing special about it.
"Huh?" He stared at the bottom of the mast, and a familiar mark suddenly appeared.
"Ren Chamber of Commerce? It's them again." The mark is dark red as a whole, as if it is filled with blood. Pull out the imitation plum knife tip and scratch the mark. The whole mark is smooth, and it is painted on.
He turned his head and glanced at the briquettes squatting on his shoulders, staring at the bottom of the mast with his three eyes.
The "Bang" blade struck the mark and penetrated the wood half a foot deep. He didn't dare to use force now, after all, he didn't know what was hidden inside.
"Bang, bang, bang." On the empty sailboat, the sound of chopping wood continued to echo.
Not long after, a big hole was opened at the bottom of the mast, and a flash of black appeared in the middle of the mast. When he saw something, Chen Ren's eyes lit up and he swung his sword faster.
He dug out a piece of jet-black ore from the mast. The ore was only as big as a fist and had an uneven surface. Looking at it from different angles under the sun, you could still see dots of silvery bright spots. You could tell at a glance that this thing was no ordinary thing.
"Good briquettes, I'll give you extra food later." With a face full of joy, he stretched out his hand to stroke its feathers.
"Gah" it narrowed its eyes, obviously enjoying the owner's touch.
"Coal briquettes, let's see if there is any treasure left?"
The black eyes on its forehead glanced behind the ship and shook its head.
"It looks like there are none. We are divided into two groups. The bandits have not left for a long time. Look around and find them. I am going to the cabin to look for survivors."
The briquettes flapped their wings and flew into the sky.
Watching it disappear into the sky, Chen Ren put away the ore and stepped into the dim cabin.
The light bulb used for lighting has been extinguished, and the sound of footsteps echoed in the narrow aisle. It seems that this ship is much more advanced than the freighter I met last time, I thought to myself. My eyes glanced back and forth around it.
, the dim environment was as bright as day in his eyes.
He didn't know what the ore was called. When he got to the shore, he went to the navy to identify it. His thoughts were mixed, but it didn't affect his exploration of the cabin at all. He opened many doors along the way, but all he saw were corpses and blood stains.
.
"Hey, it seems there is no one alive." After reaching the end, he sighed and walked back. Such things happen all the time in the sea of clouds. There is no need to feel sad for them. Since they choose to go to sea, then
Even when you are on a fighting battlefield, your life may be in danger at any time.
The sailing ship had been looted, and nothing was left except the ore.
Shaking his head, he jumped back into his boat and waited for the return of the briquettes.
Coal briquettes flew high in the sky, and a thin but extremely large treasure energy came from the distance. A cloud pirate ship stopped on the sea, and deafening cheers came from it, which was extremely lively. Among them, a black bear-like figure was very obvious, and it was not weak.
White light precious energy is emanating from his body.
Stopped at the top of the mast, three crows stared down with cold eyes. It didn't like the cloud thieves. When it thought of the very similar behavior of the cloud thieves, it recalled the tragic experience of being controlled and turned into a tool.
After confirming whether their party would end soon, coal briquettes rose from the sky and flew in the direction they came from. The sound of wings flapping attracted Howard's attention. He raised his head wearing a captain's hat and looked at the black sky in the sky.
No, I didn't care at all.
In the evening, the briquettes return to their owners under the setting sun.
Before Chen Ren could speak, the third eye was already attached to his palm. The scene of the gathering of cloud pirates appeared in his sight.
"Let's go, let's go fight against the Cloud Pirates." He drove the Adventure straight to the direction pointed by the briquettes' wings.
After a long journey, from the Golden Crow falling in the west to the Jade Rabbit rising in the east, one person and one crow finally approached the Cloud Pirates. In order not to attract their attention, Chen Ren had turned off all the lights on the boat.
Not far away, on the Yun Pirates' ship, it was pitch black and there was no sound. The Cloud Pirates were lying on the deck in groups. Even the watchman on the observation deck who was in charge of guarding was fast asleep holding a bottle of wine.
The line of sight was restored again. From the perspective of observing the coal briquettes, this was a rare opportunity.
Kill the minions first, and then go one-on-one with the captain. Thinking about the plan in his mind, the large number of people will still pose a certain threat to him, so kill the minions first. As for the captain, his swordsmanship is good, and it is worth giving Chen Ren a try.
.
The water spraying gear was adjusted to the minimum, making almost no sound, and the Adventure approached the Cloud Pirate Ship almost silently.
He jumped quietly, and his body still made a little sound when he landed on the side of the ship. He looked around alertly to make sure that he didn't attract anyone's attention. But what he didn't know was that the sound of landing just now made Howard in the captain's cabin open his eyes.
, eyes closed tightly.
Two black plum blossoms quietly unsheathed, neatly harvesting the lives of cloud pirates on the deck.
The blade of the knife cuts across, only a little drop of blood flows, and there is no sound at all.
Soon, most of the deck was stained red with blood.
Just hearing a "bang", the silence on the ship was immediately broken. A strong body crashed through the wooden door and appeared on the deck. He glanced at most of the dead team members. His eyes were immediately covered with bloodshot eyes and veins on his forehead.
He stood up violently, looking like he was going to eat someone.
"Go to hell", the sharp blade was unsheathed, and with great force, the blade went straight towards Chen Ren.
