Celtic Sea region, Dragon Head.
"Lord, there seems to be a naval battle in front; seems like they have met some pirates!" Zheng He reported.
"Oh?"
Ouyang Shuo took the telescope and looked out at the battlefield.
"English Man O' War?"
Ouyang Shuo immediately recognized the battleships and the ongoing battle.
"Giant dragons?"
When he saw the huge dragons circling around in the air, he thought back to the information from the last life. He was basically certain that these pirates were the infamous Vikings.
"Send down my orders. We will immediately fight, save the English squadron." Ouyang Shuo put down the telescope and ordered without hesitation. No matter who the enemy was, such a favor would help him in England.
"Yes, my Lord!" Zheng He did as told.
In contrast to the English battleships, the Shanhai City voyage squadron was made up of many different warships. They were also equipped with trebuchets, arcuballistas, arrows, rockets, and more.
The voyage squadron was better equipped to deal with the Vikings.
Under the orders of Zheng He, the voyage squadron formed into a battle formation and charged over. At the same time, frogmen dived down toward the dragon boats.
Although the Europeans already knew about the frogmen tactic, the Vikings were still unfamiliar with it.
Before the voyage squadron even approached, the drums of war rang out.
Cannon fire, arrow rain.
The Viking Pirates who were in the middle of an intense battle were pushed back; instantly, they panicked.
"Cover up!" Zheng He ordered.
Crossing boats and fighting were things that the voyage squadron did not fear.
Chen Dameng and the Divine Martial Guards were all raring to go, their killing intents boiling.
"Kill!"
The strong Divine Martial Guards and the sword-shield soldiers charged into the chaos; another round of massacre ensued.
On the dragon boat in the distance, the head of the pirates, Tuffnutt, stared at them like a bull; he opened his mouth, revealing his disgusting teeth, "Can anyone tell me who that damned fellow is?"
"...."
No one could answer his question.
"Send the dragons to kill them." Tuffnutt was not ready to give up.
"Yes!"
The fatty took up the cow horn by his neck and blew a special melody. When the dragon tamers in the air heard this sound, they immediately controlled the fire dragons to charge toward the voyage squadron.
On board Dragon Head, Ouyang Shuo stared at the two dragons flying over, unfazed. He had even fought the mysterious eastern dragon. In comparison, these two ‘dragons’ were just lizards that could fly.
"Shoot down the two lizards!" Ouyang Shuo ordered.
"Don't worry!" Zheng He was also completely confident.
Handguns or muskets were not the true killing weapon to deal with these flying beasts. The true ones were the three-bow arcuballistas prepared by the voyage squadron.
The arrows shot by the arcuballisatas were like harpoons, flying over 1500 meters. Even giant dragons would definitely be heavily injured if struck.
On the various turreted ships, hundreds of arcuballistas had zeroed in, aiming at the flying dragons.
On the backs of the flying dragons, the Viking dragon tamers looked rather bored; they did not feel that any weapon could threaten their giant dragons. Just thinking about the enemy warships going up in flames, they could not help but break out into smiles.
"Dumb humans, prepare to be burned!" The dragon tamers clamored.
Aang!!
One of the dragons roared, sucking in air; its stomach instantly bloated and shone with a bright fiery red as if magma was boiling in its stomach.
"Fire!"
Just as the giant dragon was getting ready to shoot out its flames, the order to fire was given.
Xiu! Xiu! Xiu!
Huge spear like arrows shot through the air.
Aang!
The dragon in the air let loose a painful cry; the gigantic ‘one spear three sword arrow’ either pierced its stomach or its wings, putting it in immense pain.
The flames that it was about to fire out were swallowed; its face turned red and smoke bellowed from its nose.
Aaaaang!!
The roars continued; the dragon tamer stumble and was tossed off its back.
Ahh!
The dragon tamer screamed helplessly in the air, crashing into the ocean. Their dragon could not last for long, stumbling and struggling to fly for less than a few meters before falling into the ocean and causing huge waves.
The pirate leader Tuffnutt looked on with his mouth agape; he pinched the fatty beside him in disbelief.
Ahh!
The fatty let out a pig like squeal.
"It's real!" Tuffnutt muttered.
"Boss, what should we do?" The fat pirate looked at Tuffnutt, annoyed.
"Pa!" Tuffnutt kicked him, "Are you dumb? Run!"
"Yes, yes, yes!"
The fat pirate immediately ordered the ships to start to retreat.
As for the pirates who were still fighting, they could not care for them any longer. Pirates were not soldiers, loyalty or brotherhood did not exist. Deserting their brothers was common to them.
Unfortunately, it was too late.
Making use of the time when both sides were fighting, the frogmen had already arrived beneath the dragon boats. The flagship that the Viking leader was on became their focus.
Just as the flagship was about to escape, it slowly started to sink.
"What's happening?" Tuffnutt kicked the fat pirate once more.
The fat pirate had done nothing wrong; he was on the verge of crying!
Following a boss with such a bad temperament was truly unlucky. Luckily, his skin was thick; if it was another pirate assistant, he would be handicapped.
Even so, the fat pirate did not dare to retaliate.
He knew that the moment the boss was furious, he would become exceedingly crazy.
"I'll go take a look!"
The fat pirate ran away; for a fat person, his movements were quite swift.
In less than 10 minutes, the fatty came back panting, his face ashen white as he stammered, "Boss, boss, not good, the cabin has been chiseled; it's going to sink-"
"Sh*t!" Tuffnutt could not help but spit out a vulgarity, pointing a middle finger toward the heavens. He swiftly placed down a small dragon boat and jumped onto it.
When the fat private saw his actions, a strong power burst out from within him as he jumped down as well.
"Boss, wait for me!"
Peng!
The fat pirate fell into the dragon boat, causing the boat to sink slightly; luckily, it did not capsize.
"Jerk!"
Tuffnutt gave the fat pirate a kick in anger.
The fatty who was saved did not mind it, giving out a relieved smile instead.
Tuffnutt face palmed, having nothing to say to this subordinate.
These two pirates left the battlefield, quietly disappearing into the ocean.
"Boss what should we do?" In the distance, the voice of the fatty spread out.
"Look for our boss Xikapoor!"
"Ah, we are finding the boss? That's great!"
"A**hole, stop jumping; if not, the boat will sink."
"...."
These two best partners disappeared across the vast ocean. Who knows what waves they would cause in the future.
On The Annie, the Iron Ladies similarly had their mouths agape.
"What in the world!" some people exclaimed.
A while ago, these Viking Pirates were crushing them. However, under the attacks of an unfamiliar squadron, they were like weak chicken, finished off in a few blows.
The strong giant dragons were even killed in the first wave.
The final boss in their eyes became monsters in a newbie village in the blink of an eye.
"Are we in the wrong version?" Someone started to question their life.
"We might have just killed a fake boss."
"Missus, that seems like the Shanhai City voyage squadron that has been making waves." Compared to her group of little sisters, Caroline was much calmer. Who claimed that people with big breasts would be brainless?
"Scoff, not long ago, they, Vic City, and Atlantis created some Mediterranean Alliance. Looking at the time, it is just about right." Annie had been paying attention to the news regarding the Mediterranean.
"The strongest Squadron in the world, as expected from there!"
When Annie heard these words, she frowned. Although she was willing to admit defeat, she did not say anything.
"Missus, let’s go over to thank them." Caroline reminded.
"Let's wait for a while more." Annie did not act.
"...."
Caroline had a ‘I knew this would happen’ expression on her face.
……
The voyage squadron did not have time to bother with the ladies as they collected war prisoners, gathered the spoils of war, fished up the dragon corpses, and completed other matters; everything was done in an orderly manner.
It was like this was their main battlefield.
After an hour had passed, even a gold coin that was dropped on the deck was cleaned up. The bodies of the two giant dragons were hung on Dragon Head and taken apart.
The dragon's body was something of legends, so why would Ouyang Shuo waste it?
As for leaving some for the English Squadron? Sorry, this was their spoils of war.
Shanhai City was experienced in war. In terms of sweeping the battlefield for rewards, they were right there at the top.
Their actions caused the Iron Ladies and the English navy soldiers to exchange glances with one another. The prestigious and highly regarded image that the voyage squadron had establish instantly crumbled.
"Idol is destroyed!"
"Cough, keke, even a strong person would have a small weakness, right?" Caroline's expression was as hard as a zombie as she tried to speak for them. After all, they had just saved their lives.
The only reply she received were quiet stares.
"Greedy!"
Annie did not give them face and coldly spat out these words.
"...."
Caroline could not laugh anymore.
Just at this moment, a tall and fierce looking general walked over, "Is this the commander of the squadron? I'm the captain of the Personal Guards. The Lianzhou Lord has instructed me to use his name to invite you to Dragon Head."
Every word that he said seemed to be forcefully memorized. A brute like him obviously lacked the talent to speak such words.
When Caroline heard his words, she smiled and introduced, "This is infanta Annie, the commander of our squadron."
"Please!"
