49: Chapter 49 Savage Tribe
"Hehe, aren't my Crew Members imposing?"
Vase's Crew Members arrived first, lining up in a row.
Standing at the very front was a burly Ship Captain.
Wu Yu couldn't help but smile, "It seems everyone's S-Class Crew Members are different. Look at mine!"
As she finished speaking, all 50 of her Crew Members were in position.
Leading them was an imposing female Ship Captain.
"Wow, Sister Wu Yu, your Ship Captain is so dashing!"
"Indeed, just as dashing as Wu Yu."
"No way, Vase's burly Ship Captain provides more of a sense of security."
Although she said that, she was inwardly delighted.
This female Ship Captain was one she had specifically chosen from three S-rank Ship Captains.
What she liked was the heroic bearing radiating from her.
Amidst the idle chatter, swaths of Crew Members appeared on the shoal one after another.
The Five Women's Crew Members had all arrived!
Scanning the area, they didn't see Chen Fan's Crew Members.
Vase rolled her eyes and revealed a teasing smile,
"Oh my, why hasn't Brother Fan come? Was he scared by our Crew Members?"
"That's true, our women's army is already so formidable. If the leader were also just like us, wouldn't that be embarrassing?"
Her smug expression made the other women chuckle.
Chen Fan shook his head with a laugh and didn't respond.
The next moment, all of his Crew Members were in place.
100 E-Rank Sailors appeared first.
"After all, with an SSS-rank Talent, there are so many Crew Members; there are a hundred Sailors alone!"
"Is Brother Fan preparing to use a human wave tactic this time?"
"I'm envious; I also want to possess an SSS-rank Talent."
"Keep dreaming; in the entire region, not even an S-rank has appeared."
As The Five Women finished speaking, a C-rank Sharpshooter and two S-Class Navigators landed simultaneously.
"Wow, are these Brother Fan's S-Class Crew Members? So cool!"
"Eh, these two seem to be Navigators, why is there no Ship Captain?"
"Maybe... they aren't needed?"
"That's true."
Soon, the third wave of light flashed.
One hundred Bull Sharks splashed into the water, making The Five Women's eyelids twitch.
"This scene is far more spectacular than the last shark swarm attack."
"I counted, there are a full hundred!! So Brother Fan can replicate the same resource a hundred times!"
"Hiss..."
"Is this an SSS-rank Talent!"
While The Five Women were marveling, the commotion here was quickly discovered.
The Wildmen in the forest froze for a moment.
Then they exclaimed and ran rapidly back into the depths of the jungle.
They shouted in a language Chen Fan didn't understand, disappearing from view along the way.
A few minutes later, the jungle began to shake.
A group of Wildmen with bare chests and weeds wrapped around their lower bodies gathered around.
They held weapons like crossbows, swords, and blades in their hands, shouting words he couldn't understand.
"Wow, there are actually so many Wildmen."
"This number, it's estimated to be three or five hundred people, right?"
"Brother Fan, what do you say?"
The Five Women were eager to try, constantly urging Chen Fan.
This was the first time they faced a strong enemy after their combat power had increased, and they were all eager to test the abilities of their own Crew Members.
Chen Fan pondered for a moment and decided to play it safe.
Although the Crew Members could respawn, there would be a vacuum period for re-summoning and gathering.
If the timing wasn't right, it would be easy to be suppressed.
"First, let the Sailors go up and scout the path. Remember to replenish the Sailors whenever they die."
"Okay!"
The Five Women answered in unison.
Three hundred-plus Sailors charged up aggressively.
The lowest-level Crew Members lacked intelligence and acted almost entirely according to system settings.
Thus, an extremely strange phenomenon formed.
All the Sailors moved as if they had been meticulously rehearsed, identical to one another.
They waved their hands together, took steps together, and charged forward at the same speed.
The pressure brought by their uniformity left the Wildmen frozen in place.
Seeing this, the only Wildman General wearing armor at the front of the Wildmen line gritted his teeth.
"Awoo, awoo, awoo—"
He shouted three times in a row, jolting the Wildman warriors awake.
The Wildman General waved his hand fiercely.
Another three hundred-plus Wildmen charged up, brandishing swords and blades.
The moment the two sides made contact, the unarmed Sailors fell into a disadvantage.
A Wildman holding a large blade swung horizontally, instantly dismembering two Sailors.
"My god!"
Vase covered her mouth and exclaimed.
She hadn't expected the combat power of this group of Wildmen to be so formidable.
In just one encounter, nearly eighty Sailors were killed.
And on the Wildmen side, only a dozen or so were beaten to death.
"Replenish the Sailors."
Chen Fan said coldly.
Although the disparity in combat power between the two sides was unexpected.
It didn't affect the battle situation.
Listening to the constant shouting from the Wildman General, Chen Fan understood that he was commanding the Wildmen.
Since that's the case...
"Control the Sharpshooters and shoot the Wildman General."
Chen Fan gave the order again.
Five S-Class Sharpshooters attacked together.
Behind the Wildman line.
The elderly Wildman beside the General keenly saw the situation.
"Awoo, woo, woo—"
With a roar, several Wildmen holding bows and arrows moved sideways to block in front of the General.
After piercing through two, the five arrows struck the Wildman blocking in front of the General.
The Wildman lowered his head, looking in disbelief at the five arrows stuck in his chest.
He slowly turned his head and took one last look at his General.
Then his head sank, and he collapsed.
"Wah, woo, woo!"
The General roared, and another five hundred Wildmen rushed out of the grass with weapons.
The old man sneered and leaned into the General's ear, saying something.
Immediately, the General also revealed a cold smile, glanced at the shoal, and retreated a few steps.
Two huge, heavy shields were pushed up, instantly covering the General behind them.
The shields were clearly made of bronze.
"Yo ho."
Chen Fan raised an eyebrow, not expecting this group of Wildmen to have developed to the Bronze Age.
Just as Chen Fan was deep in thought, a rumbling sound rang out.
A massive catapult was pushed up.
"A catapult!!!"
"So big!"
"They actually have a catapult! Brother Fan, should we send our whole army up?"
"We should go, right? Once we get close, the catapult will be useless."
The Five Women were chattering away.
Chen Fan pondered for a moment and nodded: "Units on the coast, disperse! Press forward!"
With the order given, the Crew Members gathered on the coast dispersed and pressed forward.
Just then, the opponent's catapult had already loaded its ammunition.
The huge sling flung out over a dozen stones, each weighing about twenty pounds.
Chen Fan frowned slightly.
He hadn't expected this group of Wildmen to be quite intelligent.
They didn't use the hundred-pound boulders nearby, but instead loaded 20-pound stones.
You have to know, on the side of the Crew Members, there were no large units.
So these 20-pound stones were lethal and had a larger coverage area.
So many Crew Members were crowded on the shoal.
Even with Chen Fan's command, such a large group of Crew Members needed time to adjust.
Large numbers of Crew Members were crushed by the boulders, leaving no remains.
For a time, the shoal was stained red with blood.
