The mage arrives

The big vulture hovering in the air suddenly let out a strange howl, and the force of the wind and sand was gathering at the tip of its wings.Knowing that the big flying bird seemed to be about to amplify its moves, Gordon decided to act first, aiming the activated shield at the air, and then launched all the disintegration spells in one breath.

Anyway, it was now the end of the battle, and his own large troops had arrived, so he didn't need to stay any longer.

Seeing the spell coming, this big bird that seemed to have a lot of wisdom immediately sensed the danger.It gave up its plan to attack, and its whole body was turned sideways at a strange angle, its bare neck almost twisted into a twist because of this movement.

Despite his best efforts, Gordon's disintegration rays were too dense, and the vulture was finally hit.

Two shots of disintegration penetrated the vulture's broad wings.

The strange bird let out a long cry of pain, its body shook violently, and several feathers fluttered down one after another.

The vulture seemed to be terrified and unable to fight any more, it actually abandoned Bellamy who was still struggling with the ice golem on the ground, turned around and ran away.

But Gordon, at this time, was attracted by another strange thing.

He found that the feathers of the vulture fell on the ground, instead of flying around lightly, but fell straight down, and even made a "crack" sound when it hit the grass.

Gordon took a closer look, only to find that the few feathers had turned into a light yellow, translucent, soft jelly, and it also exuded a foul smell.

"Interesting." Gordon raised his eyebrows, as if he had discovered something.He opened his eyes of truth and warning, looked into the sky, and immediately saw the true face of this vulture: a four-meter-long coeloid.There are more than a dozen translucent spirit-like tentacles growing on its body.All inserted into Bellamy's body.

At this time, this extremely disgusting-looking big worm was struggling to escape from the battlefield.Gordon could clearly see that on its body, there were two huge bowl-shaped wounds blasted by him with the dissociation technique, and a viscous yellow-brown liquid was continuously flowing out.This should be its blood.

For running away.So the big bug started to pull out all the spirit tentacles inserted in Bellamy's body one by one.

Every time a tentacle leaves the body, Bellamy's fat body will tremble, and a trace of confusion will appear in the eyes of this big pirate who were originally fierce.

Gordon is now inside the earthen wall he built, trying to chase the big bug.It was too late.Although the opponent's body looked as fat and clumsy as Bellamy, it obviously possessed some kind of special ability to fly, and its escape speed was not slow at all.

Soon, all the spirit tentacles left Bellamy's body, and the big worm was completely unrestrained, gradually turning into a small dot.Hidden in the night.The direction in which it last disappeared seemed to be heading toward Mount Vesula.

Bellamy's situation is also quite bad after losing her beloved "demon pet", or to be precise, the parasite.He started to twitch all over, and Gordon directed the ice golem to punch him three times and kick him down on the ground.

Seeing this, the other pirates didn't have the will to fight.They all turned around and fled.

In the battle just now, Gordon, who was short-handed and on the defensive, didn't kill too many pirates.Today, there are at least 80 more enemies in this group.

If these six- and seven-level elite pirates are united under the command of the leader, it may be quite difficult, and Gordon needs to take it seriously to solve it completely.

But with Bellamy's failure, his subordinates also fell into panic.Faced with Freeman's private army blocking the entrance to the valley, the only place of escape, the pirates launched a desperate and senseless charge.

First came a round of arrow rain.Then there was a horrible shower of javelins.Before the battle, the pirates suffered heavy casualties.For the convenience of activities, and because they lived at sea for a long time, these pirates did not have the habit of wearing armor.The long-range fire coverage of Gordon's army has achieved unexpected results.In the next hand-to-hand fight.Although they were just a group of rookies, they had numerical and psychological advantages, and the Redstone Guards as the core leader, so Freeman's private army still did not expend too much effort to wipe out all the remaining pirates.

However, these elite pirates were all criminals who licked their blood and committed countless felonies, so none of them surrendered.They would rather be pierced through the chest by five or six spears than lay down their weapons.

When the battle was over, his subordinates began to clean up the battlefield and count the casualties and results, while Gordon was dealing with the problem of the pirate leader Bellamy.He originally thought that this famous big pirate on the steam sea, formerly a subordinate of the King of Haiwen, would cause him a lot of trouble.Unexpectedly, because of the escape of the familiar vulture, things changed dramatically.

Bellamy was twitching non-stop on the ground. From a distance, it looked like a small mountain of meat was undergoing a partial earthquake.

The great pirate turned the whites of his eyes and foamed at the mouth, with a blank expression on his face, but he kept muttering: "No, no, my God, I can't! Why would I eat this kind of thing!"

Gordon took out a sobriety potion and asked a Redstone Guard to pour it into Bellamy.After a while, the medicine took effect, and the big pirate finally breathed a sigh of relief.

But just now he struggled to stand up, but immediately knelt down on the ground, vomiting for a while, until he poured out all the contents in his stomach, it was not over.

"It stinks!" Ji'er held her nose and looked at him with disgust.However, as a noble lady who loves cleanliness, although she didn't want to look at the vomit on the ground, she didn't leave either.Because she was really curious about what had happened to this vicious and cannibal pirate to become what he is now.

In fact, Gordon had guessed some clues.

The big pirate's habit of overeating and eating human flesh was probably brought about by that big worm.The terrifying creature changed its shape through some kind of illusion, and then quietly parasitized Bellamy's body.Even the big pirate himself didn't notice it.

But why that worm would direct its host to eat without restraint, and finally turned into a big fat man, and even addicted to human flesh, is unknown.

After the big worm escapes.Buried in the depths of Bellamy's mind, those memories of eating human flesh suddenly flooded his mind like a tide.

Before, when he was controlled by that strange creature.Although his consciousness is clear, all the memories are there, and he even has independent consciousness, but he feels like he has become another person.Eating human flesh was nothing to my former self.But after getting out of the control of the big worm.But he suddenly realized how disgusting, terrifying, and unbearable that experience was.

Those terrible memories surged up in an instant, shocking Bellamy's thinking to pieces, almost falling into shock.That's why there was the scene just now.

Even if it is finally relieved now.Bellamy had no choice but to slump to the ground and gasp for air.

"When did you get that big worm? Where did you get it?" Gordon asked.The reason why he didn't execute Bellamy immediately was also because he was more interested in that strange creature.

"You mean, the real body of my pet vulture is a bug?" Bellamy asked panting.Although he didn't want to believe it, all the things that happened just now forced him to believe this fact.

Gordon nodded.

"That vulture is a bug? What kind?" Jier's curiosity was also aroused, and she gently shook Gordon's arm and asked.

"Trust me. Miss, you definitely don't want to see what that thing looks like." Gordon smiled and shook his head, "If you're really curious, you can imagine how disgusting a caterpillar is, magnifying it a hundred times. look."

"Uh... forget it then." Just hearing Gordon's narration, Ji Er felt goosebumps all over her body.

At this time, Bellamy took a deep breath, and said, "Freton, let me tell you. The vulture was a spoil I snatched from a merchant ship 14 years ago. The merchant ship came from the desert. Empire Bin Latu, others, I don’t know.”

"Ben Latu, the desert empire?" Gordon repeated the name, seeming to recall something.

The royal family of this empire are all mages who are good at summoning spells of the conjuration school.Especially its supreme ruler.Sultan Mustafa is even more a summoning master in the legendary realm.

Many of the extremely rare and even unheard of alien creatures in the market are from the hands of the summoners of the Benlatu Empire.So maybe, the big worm that has parasitized Bellamy for more than ten years is also the product of a certain summoning experiment by a high-ranking summoner of the Benlatu Empire.

Seeing Gordon's dazed expression, Bellamy said again: "Freton, you already know what you want to know. Besides, if you want to know anything else from me, I will tell you everything. I can even cooperate with you to make all the fleets at sea surrender."

"Across the sea of ​​steam, the famous Bellamy is so cooperative?"

The big pirate showed a bitter smile: "There is no deep-seated reason, I just want to survive."

Bellamy has now fallen into Gordon's hands, losing a hundred elites, and just learned that he has been parasitized by a disgusting big bug for more than ten years. Apart from saving his own life, he had no other demands.

"It's a pity." Gordon looked at Bellamy with regretful eyes, "At this moment, I'm afraid that all your pirate ships, including the most powerful 'Long Summer Beauty', have already been taken by me. And You, poor pirate, are of no use to me."

Although Bellamy had just suffered a serious injury and was in a state of despair.But after all, he is a hero who once roamed the sea of ​​steam.Gordon didn't bother to haggle with him and fight wits.

For such a tricky guy, it is the easiest and least risky to kill him directly.

Seeing the two redstone guards drawing their long swords and coming over, Bellamy's face was pale, his eyes filled with despair: "Impossible! How could my fleet be captured by you? My crew are all the most experienced sailors, how could it be possible?" Defeated by you landlubbers Yankees! Gordon, if you spare me, I can help you train a powerful fleet across the sea of ​​steam!"

"And then? The great Bellamy can lead this fleet to fight back?" Gordon would not believe these capricious and cunning pirates at all.He waved his hand and asked Hongshi Jianwei to do it.

After Bellamy's head was separated from his bloated body, Jill asked: "Gordon, were you lying to him just now, or do you really have a way. Capture all those pirate ships?"

"I'm a good person, how could I lie to others?" Gordon spread his hands, showing an innocent expression, "Let's go back, Miss Jier. Then you will be able to see the pirate ships moored in the harbor Or you miss the beauty of the Historo Valley. Would you like to stay here a little longer?"

This place has already been messed up by Bellamy, how could Jier want to stay here.She shook her head quickly: "Forget it, let's go quickly. I've worked so hard with you this time, should you comfort me?"

"Hmm...congratulations..." Gordon felt that the word seemed a little bit crazy, "How about the mille-feuille mousse cream strawberry cake?"

To use the body to comfort this kind of words, I am afraid that this young lady will be angry immediately.So he honestly resorted to his trump card to please girls - sweets.

"What kind of cake is this? I don't seem to have heard of it. But it must be delicious." Ji'er smiled happily.Even the phoenix knights who followed her all showed joyful expressions.Because the hospitable and generous lord, every time he prepares desserts for Jier, he will never forget to prepare desserts for them as well.

……

Time jumps back half an hour.When Bellamy led the pirates into the Sisdoro Valley, they were slowly approaching Gordon's camp.The pirate fleet at sea didn't know what they were about to face.

"Hey, did you hear anything?"

On the Long Summer Beauty, the bosun in charge of night defense questioned the pirates on duty.As the person with the highest status among the left behind pirates, the boatswain was very dissatisfied that he couldn't go ashore to kill and make money by the way.But it's okay.Bellamy will also give appropriate compensation to the brothers who take on the boring tasks of staying behind.

"It's just the sound of the waves, Bosun." The pirate who was questioned replied with a smile.

No one believed that they would encounter any danger docked on the coast, so the atmosphere on every pirate ship was extremely relaxed.They were covered by dense fog, and the Haiwen lord only had a few fishing boats that could go to sea.On the shore, maybe you have to be careful.But at sea, the pirates believed that no one could do anything to them.

After laughing and scolding for a while, the bosun stepped away and continued to patrol the ship from bow to stern.

But when he reached the middle of the "Changxia Beauty", the boatswain stopped again.Suspiciously asked: "That strange voice came again, you really didn't hear it?"

The two footmen felt that the bosun was a little too suspicious.Relying on his seniority, this guy often brags to the new pirates that he has excellent hearing and can hear the sound of dolphins jumping out of the water a kilometer away.Although the newcomers were often taken aback for a while, none of the old pirates believed the bosun's nonsense.

The attendant smiled and said, "Bosun, did you hear the sound of a male dolphin mating with a female dolphin one kilometer away?"

The boatswain heard the other party's teasing, and couldn't help showing annoyance: "Asshole, I'm serious. It's not the dolphin's cry-chun a fucking kilometer away, but our feet! The bottom of the sea! Something big is approaching !"

As soon as he finished speaking, a muffled "bang" sounded to the ears of all the pirates on board.

It seemed that something hit the hard hull to make this sound.

"Quick! Go and see!"

Under the order of the boatswain, the pirates who knew that something big was going to happen, all mobilized.Even the pirates, who were not on duty and were sleeping soundly, were called up by their accomplices.

A group of people armed with sailor knives, harpoons, javelins and other weapons gathered on both sides of the Changxia Beauty, straightening their heads and looking down.However, due to the curvature of the hull, there was no gain for a while.

However, the sound of "bang", "bang", "bang" never stopped, like a drumbeat that urged every one of the pirates to turn pale.

"Hey, have you noticed? Why is it getting colder and colder? It's spring!" A pirate shivered suddenly, wrapping his open shirt tightly.

When the other pirate heard what his companion said, he suddenly realized that his own breath had condensed into white mist.

"Strange!"

At this moment, the mystery was revealed.

A pirate couldn't help throwing the torch down, and finally, with the light of the falling flames, he could see clearly the culprit who made the "bang bang" sound from the hull.

They were big men with strange shapes, covered in snow and exuding a cold breath.Each one is more than three meters high, and to the pirates, it is an out-and-out giant.

The pirates were so frightened that they threw long-range weapons such as javelin throwing knives at these ice giants, trying to prevent them from climbing up slowly along the hull.As they attacked, they yelled nonsense: "What the hell are these!"

"It's an ice golem!"

Far away in the underground laboratory of Sea Cliff Fort, the goblins operating the ice golems answered the pirates' questions in unison by imaging the crystal ball live.

Even if it is a serious matter like war, these lively little guys don't seem to be serious.

A total of twenty ice golems were put into this raid on the pirate fleet.Queen Aenea alone controls five ice golems.The other fifteen ice goblins each control one.

This time, Gordon put the golem remote controller invented by Dalinar into actual combat for the first time.That's why these delicate ice goblins can command the ice golems to fight in a safe place far away from the battlefield.
