149: Wind Whisper City
The power of the blizzard surged outwards.
The tip of the sword was aimed directly at the Black Pearl. The sea was Freezing, ships were shattered, and the Black Wizard turned pale with fright. This power was at least a level five magic, which requires Master-level intelligence, and Master skills can only be learned by a second-turn Hero.
No wonder this guy is so arrogant!
The Black Wizard misunderstood; this magic was certainly not learned by Han Huohuo, but came with the Ice Blade.
The cold wind blew for over a hundred kilometers. Dozens of warships in this direction were Freezing in the ice, and then the ice shards swept up by the strong wind were all smashed into pieces.
The might of one sword!
It intimidated all the Pirates.
Jiang Xiaowen's eyes, however, lit up. Although she had long hated Han Huohuo in her heart, the current situation was too dangerous. Only if Han Huohuo was strong enough would she have a chance to survive. Of course, she prayed for a miracle, the stronger Han Huohuo was, the better!
The Black Pearl was like a black phantom, retreating a hundred kilometers to avoid the Freezing sword strike.
The black phantom in the sky roared, "Kill!"
Countless Pirate ships swarmed from all directions.
Han Huohuo swung his sword, venting his frustration.
He retreated back to the cockpit.
Zheng He was commanding the fighter jets to protect the bombers and begin a saturation bombing mode.
The sea surface that had just frozen was shattered into pieces again in no time, completely breaking apart. The sea was surging, and overwhelming numbers of planes began bombing.
The Pirates naturally wouldn't sit by and wait for death. Countless magicians and archers began shooting fiercely at the sky.
The scale of this naval battle surpassed previous great battles.
The entire sea was boiling.
The bombers flew too high for magic attacks to reach, but the missile planes still suffered significant losses.
Among so many Pirates, there were always some capable and extraordinary individuals.
The Sichuan's massive cannons began to fire.
The huge ship cannons had immense power.
Every three to five shots, some small boats would be completely blown apart, while some larger ships were more resilient, even able to withstand over a dozen shells.
Countless black crows pressed forward like a black cloud.
The Black Wizard couldn't stand it anymore and used the Crow Ghost soldiers from the Black Pearl. These crows were not physical entities but illusory shadows.
Han Huohuo pondered for a moment, thinking these shadows should be some kind of electromagnetic wave, so he activated the radar and turned the power to maximum.
It was effective indeed.
Magic also cannot be separated from science.
These crows materialized from their illusory state.
On the deck, Floating Turret and Flamethrower began attacking these crows. Before long, the crows were burned away.
There were also long-range cannons fired by artillery that bombed the Sichuan, but they only caused the defense shield to vibrate for a long time.
The battle was fierce.
There were flames everywhere.
After a day and a night of intense battle, the Sichuan's shield was finally depleted, and over a hundred missile planes were shot down. This pained Han Huohuo for a long time. Naval battles are different from land battles; if a naval battle is lost, the wreckage falls into the sea and cannot be salvaged.
Of the last thousand-plus Pirate warships, less than a hundred escaped.
Even the Black Wizard became increasingly alarmed as the fighting went on and finally had to retreat.
A modern amphibious assault ship against these old Pirate wooden boats was simply a dimensionality reduction strike.
If it weren't for some powerful magicians hidden among the Pirates, it would have been a one-sided slaughter.
The Black Wizard retreated.
The Sichuan sent out radar to scout everywhere.
"You drove away the Black Wizard? With just one ship?" Jiang Xiaowen's mind was short-circuited, and she couldn't figure out how Han Huohuo did it.
"Now there's big trouble, I feel like I've stirred up a hornet's nest?" Han Huohuo also realized something was wrong. This was just one of the seven Pirate Chiefs, and he had fought so hard and lost so many planes.
If two more waves came, he estimated he would have to run away.
Han Huohuo was unwilling to give up. He had come all this way, how could he just run back?
Mu Jiu was timid and a little scared. She whispered from the side, "How about we go back first? Tongtian City is safer. The Pirates here are too fierce."
Han Huohuo smiled and didn't say anything.
Jiang Xiaowen's face turned green, thinking, 'You guys can just pack up and leave, but what about me?'
Won't the Black Wizard skin me alive?
Especially after hearing that the Black Wizard had a habit of eating human hearts raw, Jiang Xiaowen became more and more frightened the more she thought about it.
Han Huohuo thought about it and decided to persist and give it a try. He turned to Jiang Xiaowen and said, "Look, things are already like this, and you can't keep this island. How about we discuss a business deal?"
"Business?"
Jiang Xiaowen was stunned. At a time like this, this Da Ge still wanted to talk business?
"Yes, business. How about you sell Wind Whisper Island to me? Then you can help me build turrets on it to defend against enemy attacks!"
Jiang Xiaowen blinked her eyes: "What about me? I sell the island to you, and then you give me a small boat to wander the sea?"
Han Huohuo chuckled, knowing that he had implicated Jiang Xiaowen and was essentially taking by force.
"How about this, after we repel the enemy, I promise to help you seize a new island and give you enough resources to build a brand new base. What do you think?"
"You... are you sure you can repel the enemy?"
"Actually, I'm not entirely sure. After all, I haven't dealt with the Pirate King yet. If the Pirate King doesn't come, and it's just the Black Wizard type, I'm still somewhat confident."
"Deal!"
"You're so straightforward? Don't you think I'm taking advantage of you?"
"I'm not capable, you've made me so miserable, and I'm almost dead. If you're willing to hold this place, I'll have a chance to live. To be honest, I wish I could drown you right now, but for the sake of living, I'll endure it!"
Jiang Xiaowen had one advantage: a clear mind and directness. She looked at Han Huohuo, her eyes spitting fire.
Han Huohuo laughed heartily.
She was a smart, talkative tomboy, but intelligent enough.
He liked dealing with smart people; they could see the situation clearly. In fact, what Jiang Xiaowen feared most was Han Huohuo leaving.
Then she would truly be dead. Her crystal was still on the island. Han Huohuo could slip away at any time, but she couldn't run!
This was the sorrow of a transmigrated Hero.
There was no way to escape; they could only coexist with this place, for better or worse.
Although Han Huohuo taking advantage of the situation drove her crazy, it was better than him running away.
Han Huohuo also made up his mind to station here, and Wind Whisper Island was very suitable because it was relatively close to the Empire coast. In case he clashed with Great Qian in the future, the fleet here would also be a surprise force.
There was only one way to resist the endless attacks from the Pirates.
Han Huohuo used his old trick again, preparing to build a city on the spot!
Since Jiang Xiaowen couldn't be moved out temporarily, he built a new dock on the other side of the island and built the new city there.
He was too lazy to come up with a name, so he just called it Wind Whisper City.
