38: Chapter 38 Kader's Divine Might

"It means exactly what you understand."

Upon hearing this, Chen Fan's heart skipped a beat.

He clenched his hands unconsciously.

This scene was captured by Lairuilei.

"Hmph, men."

With a soft snort, she turned and walked out.

As she stepped onto the deck, the coquettish expression gradually faded, replaced by coldness!

It would be one thing if the enemy destroyed their ships, but they dared to almost take Chen Fan's life!

This, Lairuilei could not tolerate.

The clear wind bow gradually materialized.

A breeze blew past, stirring her fiery red hair.

In the darkness, Lairuilei scanned the area for a moment before stopping, her gaze fixed in one direction.

The last cannonball had flown from exactly that spot.

"Die!"

Lairuilei's voice was icy, and a green energy sphere gathered at her fingertips.

After charging for a moment, a green light arrow tore through the darkness, pointing straight ahead.

"Zzzzt—"

A sharp, piercing sound rang out. Amidst the shocked gazes of the surrounding pirate ship Crew Members, a 30-meter-long pirate ship was sliced in two.

The smooth cut shimmered with a green light!

"Hiss..."

"What is that thing? Its power is so great."

"The attack range is very small, don't huddle together, scatter!"

The enemy instantly saw through the flaw of the Powerful Strike, and their formation began to shift.

Lairuilei snorted coldly and drew her bow again.

"Zzzzt—"

Another streak of green light spread out, and the second pirate ship was cut in half at the waist.

This scene was witnessed by Chen Fan, who had just walked out of the cabin.

He nodded slightly; everything was within his plan.

"Save some energy. If we can't win, we'll need you to clear a path when we flee."

Lairuilei nodded, let out a light breath, and stopped shooting.

The Pirate fleet, having reorganized its formation, closed in once more.

The fleet Commander-in-Chief stood on the deck of an inconspicuous pirate ship, his face livid.

At this moment, he no longer had any intention of toying with them.

He had originally been passing through and thought they were just two little ants, which is why he accepted the request for support.

He didn't expect that he, who hunted geese all day, would eventually get pecked in the eye.

The Commander-in-Chief swept his gaze over the pirate ships in the encirclement, his eyes cold.

If it weren't for the incorrect information he reported, his fleet wouldn't have suffered such huge losses.

"Press forward, finish the battle quickly!"

"Yes!"

The sound of horns blared, and the 16 pirate ships accelerated, closing in rapidly.

The artillery was adjusted, and dozens of cannonballs took to the air once again.

Seeing this, Chen Fan immediately pulled Lairuilei back into the cabin and muttered in his heart.

"Repair!"

[Repair successful.]

[Consumed materials: Wood x15k, rope x5k, nails x2k, cloth x5k, steel x5k, gold coins x15k.]

china and the ghost ship were restored to their original state once again.

"Careful, they've accelerated."

After retreating to the cabin, Lairuilei whispered a warning.

"Mm."

Chen Fan squeezed her soft hand and opened the member channel:

"Focus fire, take them out one by one."

"Yes!"

Kuka observed for a moment and commanded them to focus fire on one of them.

The Gatling gun turned its barrel, preempting the attack.

The C-rank Sharpshooter had experience this time; avoiding the hull, he aimed for the deck as much as possible.

In an instant, many people were shot and fell, and the remaining Sailors scrambled to dodge.

The ship crossbows were aimed at the ship's rudder.

Five crossbow bolts shot the unavoidable captain on the spot, and the pirate ship came to a halt.

"Now, fire!"

Kuka roared, and two cannonballs whistled out.

That pirate ship was smashed through by the cannonballs, and flames spread.

Screams rose and fell, and the Sailors began to desperately extinguish the fire, temporarily losing their offensive capability.

At the same time, the enemy's meteor shower of cannonballs arrived.

"Boom—"

Unable to dodge, china and the ghost ship were hit at the same time.

[Please repair immediately.]

[Required materials: Wood x12k, rope x4k, nails x2k, cloth x4k, steel x4k, gold coins x10k.]

"Repair!"

[Insufficient materials.]

"If this continues, I'll really be broke. Damn it!"

Chen Fan spat and opened the group chat.

"Do you have any rope? Give it to me quickly, I can't hold on!"

The Five Women heard this and immediately initiated a trade.

[Obtained: rope x5k.]

[Repair complete!]

Chen Fan breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the resource interface.

He only had 3.1K of rope left; if another round came, he would truly have no materials left to repair.

This battle had cost him a vast amount of resources.

Furthermore, so far he had gained nothing, only the magic dragon crystal core that was originally on the ghost ship.

He didn't even know what this thing was used for.

The Pirate fleet gradually approached, visible under the light of the flames.

And the enemy also saw china and the ghost ship clearly.

The Pirate Commander-in-Chief looked at the two ships in the flames, his eyes narrowing slightly.

The previous rounds of attacks had accurately hit these two ships.

He had even seen the raging flames erupting from the hulls.

Why were they unscathed at this moment?

"Boss, these two ships are a bit strange."

The first mate beside him also had a grave expression.

The Commander-in-Chief nodded, pondered for a moment, and opened the ship's broadcast.

"You have nowhere to run. Put down your weapons and hand over the resources on the ships, and I can spare your lives."

As soon as he finished speaking, the eyes of countless pirates widened, their faces filled with anger.

But the Commander-in-Chief was a man of his word; even if they had many objections, they dared not defy him.

The first mate rolled his eyes and smirked, "Surrender. Your captain is too useless to protect you."

"Bring your captain's head and join us."

This was the tactic they always used.

If the enemy really believed this nonsense, they would be able to board their ship without injury.

And then begin a massacre...

However, this time they miscalculated.

Lairuilei had been saving her energy; even though they were surrounded by the enemy, she remained calm and composed.

But at this moment, hearing the enemy mock Chen Fan, her long hair stirred without wind.

She raised her eyes slightly, her cold gaze sweeping forward.

A green energy ball slowly gathered.

The rising green flames gradually became violent.

Just as the energy ball was about to turn into a long arrow, a hand rested gently on her shoulder.

"It's not time to risk our lives yet, put it down."

"But..."

"No buts, listen to me."

Chen Fan rubbed her head and said softly, "Don't push yourself too hard; you are more important than the ship."

The cold light in Lairuilei's eyes dissipated instantly.

Replaced by a touch of gentleness.

"Mm..."

Nodding, she stood by Chen Fan's side.

Satisfied, he squeezed her little hand; Chen Fan felt he was understanding this girl's personality more and more.

She still needed to be stroked in the right direction!

He turned his head and adopted a tone of frustration:

"Shorty, do you still have any ability left? If not, we'll have to run for our lives."

The direction his gaze pointed was precisely at the SS-rank Musketeer, Kadel.

Kadel's eyes widened, and he panted heavily in anger.

He scanned the sea, judged the distance slightly, and raised his gun to fire.

"Bang!"

Gunpowder smoke rose, and the bullet crossed the sea, hitting the steering captain right between the eyebrows.

The captain fell to one side, and the steering wheel in his hand was pulled askew by gravity.

The pirate ship immediately veered off course, crashing to one side.

The pirate ship next to it couldn't dodge in time and was pierced through the waist, seawater...

Before the exclamations of the crowd could escape, Kadel raised his gun again.

"Bang—"

Another figure fell to the ground.

Kadel pulled two bullets from his pocket, reloaded skillfully, and looked full of dissatisfaction.

"Damn it, the effective range of this shitty gun is only 800 meters, it's not that my marksmanship is bad!"
