Chapter 114 Attack from the rear, referred to as backstab
??General Schuhe''s three warships lead the way, followed by the player''s three large merchant ships, and at the end are followed by more than 20 small merchant ships that follow suit.
The entire fleet braved the wind and waves and moved forward steadily. The crew members performed their duties and everything was uneventful.
On the warship at the front, Su Yu felt the river breeze blowing in his face, took a sip of the tea brought by the maid, and felt relaxed and happy.
“Ding! You drink [Pandaren Green Tea] and gain 200 experience points. (Only valid for the first time)”
“Oh? It’s a specialty of the panda people?” Su Yu looked at the porcelain cup in his hand.
?But just think about it.
?In the game setting, the Pandaren Empire is a powerful, mysterious, and ancient utopian country for the three major empires including Plantagenet.
The tea, silk, porcelain, pepper, etc. produced by the Pandaren are all top-notch luxuries. It is not surprising that tea appears in the daily drinks of the princess.
"When Qian Bei Bu Drunk goes to the Pandaren Empire, maybe we can open up a trade route through his trial route. The new trade route is easier to travel than the old trade route, and it can save half the time. The new trade route will be opened Success, there are so many psychic coins!" Su Yu''s thoughts drifted away.
But the princess''s voice brought Su Yu''s thoughts back to reality: "Nemesis, if I can become the queen in the future, what kind of reward do you want?"
"Well, if possible, I would like to serve as your Majesty''s Minister of Foreign Trade to protect the empire''s overseas trade!" Su Yu replied.
Minister of Foreign Trade is the most lucrative position in the empire. Unfortunately, it is difficult for players to climb into this position.
"That''s it." The princess was slightly disappointed.
She originally thought that her nemesis would ask her for a title of earl or above and obtain a large fiefdom. I didn''t expect that the nemesis''s vision would be so low. Is a small foreign trade minister satisfied?
"But it''s okay. Let''s see how he performs in the future! If he performs well, in addition to the Minister of Foreign Trade, it is not impossible to force him to a county."
The princess no longer looked at Su Yu, but turned to look at the scenery outside the window.
The large merchant ship following behind.
It was the first time for many players to ride on this old-fashioned merchant ship with masts, and they walked around the ship curiously.
There are also many players holding weapons and shouting:
“Sure enough, the sea is a man’s romance!”
“I am the man who wants to become the Pirate King!”
“I want to become the Pirate King!”
“You three idiots! This is a river, not a sea!”
??The snow leopard stood near the rear window on the second floor of the merchant ship.
He was not as curious as the other players, but stared at the rear window and frowned deeply.
After a long time, he uttered three words: "Something''s wrong!"
“Old Zhong, what’s wrong?” Shenzhen Zizhi looked at him.
“Look at the boats following us, I think something is wrong with them.”
?Snow Leopard pointed at more than twenty small boats of various kinds outside the window.
?Range Is Truth breathed a sigh of relief: "There is no problem with these ships, they are all ordinary merchant ships."
"Before boarding the ship, Old Tang and I went to investigate on their ship. They were all ordinary NPC merchants. These NPC merchants wanted to send a batch of goods not far downstream. By following us, we can avoid attacks by water bandits. "
??The Unbreakable Alliance standing nearby also nodded and said: "Yes, I boarded these ships with Lao Huang just before we boarded them. Apart from the merchants and boatmen, there are only some large wooden boxes containing goods on the ships, so there should be no problem."
“Big wooden box?” Snow Leopard became alert: “What’s in the box?”
“We haven’t opened it to look, it should be cargo. Old Zhong, you don’t doubt what’s in the box.”
At this point, the range is the truth suddenly stopped talking about.
Because through the rear window, he could clearly see the small merchant ship behind him. Water ghosts wearing black diving suits suddenly appeared one after another and jumped into the water with a splash. "Enemy attack! Alert!"
??The sound of the snow leopard spread across the wide river.
The players’ laughter and noise stopped instantly.
?Through the group messages sent in the chat room, they learned that the coming threat was not in front, but behind them!
Players took out their weapons and prepared to fight.
And at this time, the side mission issued by Su Yu arrived as scheduled:
“Player Nemesis has issued a mission to you [Protect Merchant Ship]. Do you want to accept it?”
"accept!"
“Ding! Congratulations on triggering the scenario battle side mission [Protecting Merchant Ships].”
“Task requirements: Protect merchant ships so that the loss of three merchant ships will not exceed 40%. The current loss is 0%.”
“Task reward: experience value x750, power coin x5.”
“The player nemesis has issued a mission to you [Kill the Water Ghost].”
“Ding! Congratulations on triggering the scenario battle side mission [Kill the Water Ghost].”
“Mission requirements: Defeat the water ghost troops attacking merchant ships.”
“Task reward: experience value x750, power coin x5.”
“The player nemesis issues a mission to you [Counterattack and Occupation].”
“Ding! Congratulations on triggering the scenario battle side mission [Counterattack and Occupation].”
“Task requirements: Capture 10 ships carrying water ghosts in the rear, progress (0/10).”
“Task reward: experience value x 900, power coin x 6.”
Su Yu waved his hand and distributed the three tasks.
The players were all overjoyed and excited.
2400 experience points!
? ? 2,400 experience points will be given out at the beginning of the mission. The reward for this mission is too generous!
The players are gearing up and preparing to have a good fight with the water ghosts!
?Snow Leopard also immediately issued orders in major chat rooms.
Shortly after the order was issued, the three player merchant ships began to slow down and slowly turned around.
At Su Yu''s request, the three system warships in front also slowly slowed down and turned around to prepare to attack the water ghosts.
?Archers and magicians walked to the side of the ship one after another, shooting or throwing [Ice Arrows] at the bottom of the ship regardless of the damage.
??Although the power of arrows and [Ice Arrows] will be greatly reduced after entering the water, players have one advantage, and that is - the amount is enough!
Under the dense cover of arrow spells, within a short while, layers of blood appeared on the surface of the water.
Obviously, some of those water ghosts lurking under the water have been injured!
??The water ghosts also found that the plan to build the ship was not reliable.
Because they could not use force underwater, it took them a long time to build the boat. But under such an intensive attack from the players, they may have turned into "frozen hedgehogs" before they even broke the ship!
?So the water ghosts changed their ship-building plan and began to fight head-on.
Bang, bang, bang!
?The water surface exploded one after another, and dark figures broke out of the water one after another, landing on the deck and side of the ship as gracefully and easily as a big bird.
??The archers and magicians standing on the side of the ship were caught off guard and turned into streaks of white light under the long swords of the water ghosts.
?However, the melee players on the boat reacted and immediately rushed towards the water ghosts.
With six ships as the battlefield, a brutal fight gradually began.
