The Bizarre Adventure of the Warhammer Elves

Chapter 315
"...Facing the danger of a powerful enemy, not being afraid, being blessed by the mist, being loyal and brave, facing death without lying, protecting the helpless without losing, this is what Lady Misty and Lord Rohan hope we can create. world."

In the cabin, Brother Roland was constantly reading the "Mist Holy Tome" in his hand with his gentle voice, and the faint white light emitted from his body all showed his identity as a living saint.

As a devout martyr, Roland was once a paladin of the Barclay Empire's goddess of justice, Astalia, and hoped that the goddess of justice could return to the continent of Pendor.

However, after Rohan's army successfully unified Pendor and implemented sustainable depletion of fish on the main road, Roland, who witnessed the coming of peace, resolutely chose to disarm and return to the field, and no longer interfered with religious matters.

After all, he also saw that if he really wanted to realize the arrival of the Lady Justice in Pendor Continent, then the Misty Lady, whom the elves believed in, would definitely not ignore it, and there would definitely be a big battle at that time.

Therefore, for the peace of Pendor, the once noble Dawn Knight chose to put down his lance and Dawn robe, and lived in seclusion in an ordinary village deep in the mountains.

He thought that he would stay in this village forever, or that he would be beheaded by the killer sent by the Knights of the Dawn, ending his sinful life.

However, he never expected that the killer of the Knights of Dawn had not arrived in Pendor Continent for a long time, but the court noticed him as a heretic!
Several Inquisition Court warriors in white robes personally poured the bewildered Roland into the prison, and after confirming that he was just a knight who had given up his belief, they prepared to release him from prison.

However, because Roland happened to listen to the speech of a Mist monk in prison, he finally made up his mind to join the faith of Ms. Mist. After he was released from prison, he joined the Pendor Auxiliary Army and became a devout believer.

And relying on his military exploits in the battle to wipe out the remnants of the Noldor Elves and the Snake Cult, Roland finally cleared himself of his suspicions and became an excellent member of the Tribunal.

Returning to reality, Roland looked gently at the surrounding Pendor soldiers who closed their eyes and began to pray, gently closed the "Sacred Mist" in his hand, and also closed his eyes.

He believed that the benevolent and beautiful Ms. Misty would never stand by and watch her followers die in the belly of a fish and remain indifferent!
It seemed that the power of the Misty Lady really blessed everyone present. The soldiers who were still nauseated by seasickness immediately noticed that their bodies seemed to adapt to the bumpy deck, as if they were natural sailors.

And the sound of water splashes that had been coming from around seemed to be disturbed by some mysterious force, and the waves gradually began to stop, replaced by the cheers of the Ironmen:

"We have already entered the center of Lannister's fleet, and all crew members are ready to board!"

"Melee combat is beneficial to us!"

"Don't sleep with your eyes closed. Don't fall into the water in the next boarding battle, or we won't be ashamed to save you!"

An excited iron warrior didn't know if he was too excited, but he looked at the Pendor soldiers sitting in the cabin with some arrogance, his eyes were full of teasing and provocation.

In his opinion, these well-equipped Pendor soldiers and knights are not comparable to excellent iron warriors, and it is only because of the dragon that they can make the Iron Islands and the captains submit.

If you change him, he can do it too!
"Interesting, a heretic dares to come to provoke you?"

Hearing the provocations coming from the cabin door, Roland slowly hung the scripture in his hand on his waist, then got up and looked at the arrogant ironman, a silver light flashed in his eyes under the helmet.

As a living saint who is loyal to Ms. Mist and Lord Rohan, although he will gently face every ordinary person and pagan he meets, this does not mean that he has no temper.

In other words, when faced with any heresy that tries to provoke the majesty of the Mist Walker, he will not show mercy!
dong dong dong~
The sound of heavy footsteps spread throughout the cabin, and the arrogant iron warrior immediately shut his mouth obediently, staring blankly at the silver-armored monster who was already over two meters tall.

Looking at the iron man whose face was covered with cold sweat, Roland silently stretched out two pairs of generous palms and placed them on the other's shoulders. Before the iron warrior realized what was going on, Roland snapped Clenched hands:

Gaba~
"What... ah ah!"

Looking at the howling ironborn who fell on the ground and his shoulders were crushed by himself, Roland directly carried the heavy tower shield and silver-plated mace across the opponent's body, and at the same time ordered the surrounding Pendor soldiers:

"Everyone is ready to jump gangs. Since the existence of the Black Ark cannot be exposed in this battle, the main focus is on free combat."

"As ordered!"

After receiving the order from the monk, the Pande soldiers in the cabin immediately filed out, raised their shields and battle axes one after another, and appeared in neat formations on the deck of the landing craft.

Although it is a free battle, because Rohan's training requirements have always been that they can take on the role of the Great Wall of the army like Drucci's Dreadspearman, they are still good at group combat.

After all, Master Luohan has emphasized that unity is strength!

"Ouroloro..."

On the other hand, the Ironborn pirates on the other side were as rampant and arrogant as ever. Their ready-to-go axes and javelins were also aimed at the approaching Black Ark not far away, ready to enter the boarding battle.

And Victarion put down his battle axe, gripped the ship's side tightly with both hands, and there was a passion of a sea boy in his eyes, and he roared in an uncontrollable excited voice:
"Crash ready!"

boom--

The solid ram of the Invincible Ironborn pierced the deck of the oncoming Lannister warship like a sharp dagger, immediately throwing the Lannister crew off balance.

And the iron species who had already been waiting, immediately threw the iron hooks in their hands towards the Lannister battleship, and then shouted with all their strength:

"pull!"

"pull!"

As the ironmen hung the iron hook on the winch and pulled it continuously, the Lannister warship immediately began to be out of the control of the sailors of the western region, and involuntarily approached the Invincible Ironborn.

These ropes soaked in palm oil are like the tentacles of the abyssal sea monster dragging their prey, and they are dragging this poor western warship into his bloody mouth bit by bit!

"Archers, shoot the arrows, and the crew quickly cut those ropes, and the ironborn must not be allowed to set foot on our warship!"

Seeing this scene, the captain of the West Territory, who had never experienced such a situation, immediately turned pale, but still gave the correct order anxiously.

Although the strength of the Lannister fleet is far inferior to that of the Iron Fleet, it can still be regarded as a powerful fleet that needs to face pirates and stowaways frequently, so it will not perform too badly.

However, the ropes smeared with palm oil are extremely tough. Even though the crew members in the western region frantically waved their weapons and tried to cut the ropes, they still had little effect.

And all the sharp arrows shot by the Lannister longbowmen were successfully resisted by the giant shields placed by the ironmen on both sides of the battleship. Even if some arrows could pass through the shields by chance, they could not penetrate the ironmen's skinned shields.

On the other hand, the Lannister fleet lacked the scissors to cut the rope and the shields to resist the throwing axes and javelins, so the bodies of the soldiers in the west had to be completely exposed to the weapons of the ironmen.

"No...don't do it..."

For a moment, the deck of the Lannister battleship was filled with blood, and countless crew members who were unfortunately pierced by javelins could only fall helplessly on the bare deck, covered in fear by the rain of javelins.

The Iron Fleet, on the other hand, can easily deal with all kinds of counterattacks launched by the Lannister fleet by virtue of the various equipment it has already prepared, making it impossible for the crew of the Western Territory to defend against.

Before the fleets of the two sides officially started to join the ship, Lannister's crew suffered heavy losses, and even several old warships in the Western Territory had already begun to sink because the construction materials were not as good as the Iron Fleet!
Faced with such a grand occasion, Victarion could no longer restrain his excitement, his broad chest like a bull was heaving up and down violently, and shouted at the crew who were turning the capstan:

"Don't dawdle any longer. Hurry up and bring me Lannister's warship. My battle ax can't wait to taste the blood of the Westlanders!"

"Oh!"

Hearing Victarion's shout, everyone knew that the boarding battle was about to begin, so even Roland, who was a living saint, subconsciously clenched the mace in his hand.

After all, this was his first time fighting in a different world, and it happened to be a naval battle that he was not familiar with, so even though he was quite confident in his own strength, he couldn't help feeling a little frightened.

However, among this group of Pendor warriors, there are also some bold and talented people, that is, Pendor soldiers who have gradually learned to fight in gangs under the influence of the pirates of the Black Ark:

"Wuhu!"

"I'm coming~ I'm coming~"

Accompanied by a strange cry that was not inferior to the ironborn, a dozen Pendor soldiers who shot hook guns on the mast suddenly fell from the sky, and fell straight towards the canvas of the Lannister battleship.

They are subordinates who have received harsh training from the Black Ark pirates, and their usual job is to provide fire cover for the Black Ark pirates who are charging ahead, but this does not mean that they are weak.

In other words, none of the Pendor warriors who can be selected by the proud Drucci warriors as subordinates is weak!
Although these Pendor fighters are not qualified to equip expensive sea dragon skins, they are still equipped with the same weapons and armor as the Black Ark pirates, and they can still easily perform some actions that ordinary people cannot do:

puff--

The hooks and claws that were as sharp as a sickle easily tore open the snow-white sails of the Western Territory warship, and all the Pande soldiers who jumped from the gang landed on the deck of the Western Territory warship without any mistakes, and grinned at the defenseless crew. :
"Good afternoon, have you eaten?"

"Strange...monster!"

Under the stupefied gaze of the crew members in the western region, the dancers pulled out the two sharp elven rapiers they were given at their waists, and waved gorgeous and moving sword dances among the crowd.

Since most of the soldiers in the western region had not yet reacted, almost every slash of the jumping gang members could draw a bloody flower in the air.

Although their movements are not as graceful and calm as the Black Ark pirates, they can still pierce the armor of the crew of the Western Region with brute force.

"This... is there still a need to continue to connect?"

Looking at the warships of the Western Territory that were about to be slaughtered by the jumping gang members before the battle officially started, Victarion couldn't help but put down the battle ax in his hand, and his mind fell into chaos.

He has traveled across the sea for so many years, and this is the first time he has seen such a wild and fast jump gang battle!
Could it be... do the elves also use this method to carry out boarding battles in their usual naval battles?

Thinking of this, Victarion himself couldn't help being frightened by this thought, and hurriedly asked Brother Roland who was still on guard on the deck:

"Brother Roland, may the elves usually fight at sea like today, do they use jumping to fight to capture the enemy's ships?"

After hearing Victarion's question, Roland lowered his head and thought for a moment, then shook his head firmly and said:
"No, although there are some pirate warriors in the elf army who are very good at jumping gangs, most of the time they don't use this way of fighting. After all, it's too unsightly."

"So this is ah……"

Hearing this, Victarion was secretly relieved. After all, the battle was basically over when he arrived in the waters of Kuroshio Island last time, so he hadn't been able to observe the fighting methods of the Black Ark.

Now it seems that the Black Ark is really the same as the Ironborn, using the traditional boarding and shelling tactics?
Sure enough, the ironmen's naval warfare tactics are not behind the times, is it just because the elves' equipment and force value are too high?
At this time, Victarion, who was falling into self-improvement, didn't know that although what Roland said just now was not a lie, there were indeed some mistakes:
For example, the "good habit" of jumping gang combat was actually a technique that Rohan accidentally used in a battle with the Ratman fleet a few years ago, and was later regarded as a treasure by the pirates who sought after Rohan.

Although Rohan was not the first elf to use this tactic, this tactic was successfully carried forward by Rohan's hands, and eventually became a must-learn skill for pirates.

So much so that after the [Fallen Heart] family next door came into contact with this skill, thousands of Black Ark pirates even started to jump gangs at the same time and successfully snatched a dragon ship from the Lothern Navy!
Although two small black arks were sacrificed, the pleasure of being able to snatch a precious dragon ship from the high elves is no less than NTRing the other party in person!
After all, the black ark can be rebuilt if it is gone, but the dragon boat is one less!
