This time, it seemed that the fleet's good luck had finally run out. They encountered a large group of Bloodsail Pirates in the most dangerous part of the Bloodsail Sea!
When the fleet was entangled by hundreds of Bloodsail Pirate ships that were thirty to forty meters long and could not be shaken off, the two captains could only ask Feng Chou for help.
The old captain's message for help interrupted Feng Chou's plan, so he simply left Antalya early.
Relying on the mark he had left behind, Feng Chou directly teleported to the Pioneer Knight.
Surrounded by the old captain and the senior crew members on the ship who were overjoyed, Feng Chou boarded the bridge and saw through the binoculars that behind the fleet that was moving forward at full speed, there were more than a hundred long wooden sailboats that were chasing after them on the calm surface of the sea.
The speed of these narrow sailboats was unbelievably fast. White waves broke out behind them like speedboats. Their speed was not inferior to merchant ships powered by magic power or steam power, and they were even faster. In an hour at most, these sailboats would be within ten kilometers of the merchant ships. At that time, the high-ranking Amazon warriors on these ships would fly with the wind, catch up to the merchant ships, and seize them.
Feng Chou stared at the sailboats behind him for a long time and finally decided to abandon the ship!
Not all the ships, but five of the slower merchant ships in the fleet, and let the most important Pioneer Knight and Warrior escape by cutting their tails at high speed.
Although Feng Chou had a trump card, it was not convenient for him to use it at sea. He had no choice but to abandon the ship to save the king.
Hearing Feng Chou's order to abandon the ship, the old captain was obviously relieved. He had obviously thought of this method, but this order could only be given by the master of the fleet.
In Feng Chou's fleet, the important crew members were on the Pioneer Knight and Warrior. The other five merchant ships were filled with brainwashed pirates. Feng Chou was not reluctant to throw these pirates to the pirates.
Following the flag signal from the Pioneer Knight, the Pioneer Knight and the Warrior suddenly accelerated, while the other five merchant ships fled in all directions.
Although the speed of the fast sailboat driven by the Amazons could match that of ordinary magic energy and steam hybrid ships, it was clearly much slower than the Pioneer Knight and the Warrior that were moving at full speed. Thus, the Bloodsail Pirates gave up on the Pioneer Knight and the Warrior. Like a pack of wolves, they split into five groups and chased after the five merchant ships.
Feng Chou frowned as he watched the Bloodsail Pirates gradually disappear from his sight.
As long as the five merchant ships reached Manta Port, they would be able to reap close to 500 million crowns in profit. Of course, Feng Chou would not give up just like that.
Although there were nearly a hundred Amazon sailboats, it meant that there were at least a few hundred high-grade Amazon warriors, but this did not mean that Feng Chou was afraid of them.
After all, there were twenty-five Legendary-level arcane steel golems hidden in Feng Chou's Qiankun Pagoda. There were even six intermediate Legendary-level arcane steel golems.
According to the arcane data, the challenge rating of the arcane steel golems was as high as Level-26. Even in the arcane era, they were the top single combat units on the floating city.
If not for the fact that he did not want to reveal his trump card, he would not be afraid of a few hundred high-grade Amazon warriors. Even a few hundred master-level Amazon warriors would not be a problem.
It was a pity that these legendary golems could not be controlled, and they could not be exposed to the light of day. Once they were exposed, they would no longer be Feng Chou's trump card, and might even become a death sentence for him. The production of these top-notch arcane creations in the arcane era was strictly controlled by the gods. In this era, even legendary wizards did not know how to make them. As such, if people knew that Feng Chou, a great wizard, had a large number of legendary arcane golems in his possession, it would probably attract a bunch of legendary wizards.
Although the Legendary Golem was also a Legendary-level Golem, it was, after all, an inanimate object. Feng Chou could play with it in the palm of his hand with the help of the Cosmos Tower, let alone a real Legendary-mage. If Feng Chou thought that he could look down on a Legendary-mage just because he had a Legendary Golem, then he was not far from death.
When the Bloodsail Pirates had completely disappeared from sight, Feng Chou ordered the old captain to continue leading the fleet to Manta Harbour, while he himself teleported away.
Of course, Feng Chou did not really leave. He teleported to the distant sea and entered the Qiankun Pagoda. He had the Qiankun Pagoda attach itself to one of his sea eagles and flew towards the battlefield.
The sea eagles quickly found a group of Bloodsail Pirate ships near the battlefield. There were more than twenty of them, and they were chasing a merchant ship that Feng Chou had abandoned.
In the Qiankun Pagoda, Feng Chou saw with his own eyes that the Bloodsail Pirate ships were ten kilometers away from the merchant ship. Dozens of high-grade Amazon warriors rose into the air and flew towards the merchant ship.
These dozens of Amazon warriors landed on the merchant ship with six to seven hundred crew members. It was like a group of leopards falling into a flock of chickens. In just a few minutes, the merchant ship's crew members were all killed. Sticky blood flowed from the deck into the sea, dying a large part of the water red.
The merchant ship quickly slowed down, and the Bloodsail Pirates quickly approached. Some of the pirates boarded the merchant ship from the sailboats. There were no lack of goblins and tieflings among these pirates, and the merchant ship was quickly taken over.
The blood that flowed into the sea quickly attracted groups of sharks. The Bloodsail Pirates threw the human corpses into the sea, and the sharks started a terrifying feast.
The low-grade Bloodsail Pirates turned a blind eye to it. They skillfully stirred up seawater from the sea and washed the bloody deck.
The merchant ship controlled by the pirates turned around and sailed in a certain direction under the escort of the sailboats.
Feng Chou's sea eagle followed the pirates from afar.
Not long after, the other pirate ships brought their own merchant ships to meet up with them.
Not a single one of the five merchant ships was missing. Close to a hundred Bloodsail Pirate ships escorted their spoils of war.
The sea eagle followed the pirates from afar, flying for half a day until a large island appeared in front of them in the evening.
The Bloodsail Pirate fleet circled around the island and arrived at the northeast side of the island.
There was a huge cliff in the direction of the island, and at the highest point of the cliff was a huge cave. Part of the cave was above water, while the other part was below water. Just the ceiling of the cave above water was over a hundred meters high, and the width was close to a hundred meters. Ships weighing seven to eight thousand tons were like toys when they entered the cave.
The Bloodsail Pirates piloted their sailboats into the cave.
Feng Chou commanded the sea eagle to circle above the cliff for a long time, only leaving after all the Bloodsail Pirate ships had entered the cave.
The sea eagle flew along the cliff for over twenty kilometers, leaving the cave behind before diving into the sea.
The sea eagle dove into the sea and swapped places with Feng Chou. Feng Chou then transformed into a sahuagin and dove into the depths of the sea.
Not long after, an Arrowshark surfaced in the shallow water and swam towards the cliff.
