Captain Jack of Azeroth

Chapter 52: The Bearded King
Chapter 12: The Deep-Bearded King
"He is King Deepbeard, once the king of Oceanus Caverns. After the naga conquered the deep sea giants, he became Azshara's lackey, protecting the naga."

Farondis introduced the enemy in front of him to Jack, "His existence has raised the combat limit of the Naga. Many times, I have exhausted my mana on him."

Jack asked sharply, "Didn't you use shrinking magic on him?"

Farondis spread his hands. "He has Naga magic items on him, so he can't be shrunk."

"So, this is the only way we can fight him?"

Farondis nodded.

The sailors glared at each other, feeling that they had been deceived. Fighting such a powerful enemy was simply courting death. And with King Deepbeard's marching speed, the Black Pearl would not be able to escape.

Farondis smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will trap him temporarily. After we have dealt with the other deep-sea giants, we will come back to deal with him."

Everyone was puzzled. How could such a powerful giant be trapped?
Farondis did not explain, he began to cast a spell. A whirlwind appeared out of nowhere and swept up the Deepbeard King. The Deepbeard King struggled in the air, but he could not get rid of the whirlwind.

exile!!!
Everyone was stunned, and their eyes changed when they looked at Farondis. They had always thought that this elven prince was very powerful, and that powerful flaming meteor was the most powerful magic they had ever heard of.

However, unexpectedly, Farondis once again refreshed everyone's cognition. Such a powerful King Deepbeard was subdued by him so easily.

Farondis tried his best to control the spell and said to Jack in a deep voice: "The rest is up to you."

When Jack heard this, a sharp light flashed in his eyes. He stepped on the side of the ship and raised Quellnas high, "Nedro, face the enemy and fire at full force!"

Nedlo responded and immediately rushed to the stairs. A few seconds later, the Black Pearl trembled violently, and the eight cannons on the flanks roared wildly.

Boom boom boom——

The shells fell around the deep-sea giant with a whistling sound. Even though the deep-sea giant had thick skin and flesh, it was still blown to pieces by the shells.

"what--"

The deep-sea giants roared angrily and rushed towards the Black Pearl quickly, wanting to tear this provocative small boat into pieces.

Jack raised his hand, "Harpoon ready!"

The sailors manipulated the harpoons and aimed at the deep-sea giant that was rushing in the front.

After they came into the shooting range, Jack waved his hand violently, and several harpoons shot out immediately and pierced into the body of the deep-sea giant in front.

The deep-sea giant grinned, reached out to grab the chain on the harpoon, and tried to pull the Black Pearl over.

But Jack waved his hand again, and a magic ray hit him. Under the illumination of the magic ray, the size of the deep-sea giant shrank rapidly and fell directly into the sea.

"Pull him over here!"

Chong Quan immediately ordered the sailors to retract the chains.

The other deep-sea giants looked at the magic wand in Jack's hand with horror, and hesitated for a moment.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the sailors dragged the deep-sea giant onto the ship and rushed forward to hack him to death with their swords.

Then they mounted the harpoons on the crossbows again and aimed at another deep-sea giant.

When the second deep-sea giant was shrunk, the remaining deep-sea giants finally got scared. They didn't care about their king and retreated madly, disappearing into the sea in a short while. The sailors pulled the second deep-sea giant onto the ship and killed him, and threw him into the sea together with the first deep-sea giant.

Now only King Deepbeard is left. What should he do next?
Everyone looked at Jack. Jack was silent for a long time, then gritted his teeth and said, "Prepare the artillery. Once he is released, start the bombardment immediately."

Farondis waited until everyone was ready before saying, "I'm going to let him out. Three, two, one..."

As Farondis' countdown ended, the whirlwind disappeared in an instant, and King Deepbeard fell into the sea, causing a huge wave.

King Deepbeard was both shocked and angry. He was shocked that besides Farondis, there was actually someone else who could release the shrinking ray.

He was angry that his men were slaughtered one by one. He was even more angry that those guys who escaped actually left him, the king, alone.

At that moment, the Black Pearl's guns opened fire again, and eight shells fell on him, blowing off one of his proud bows.

King Deepbeard was furious, and he looked at the Black Pearl. Whether it was the killing of his men or the bombing of his prize, this ship was the culprit.

Other deep-sea giants were afraid of shrinking rays, but he was not. He decided to tear the Black Pearl into pieces and hang its bow on his shoulders to fill the empty space that had just appeared.

Thinking of this, he stepped towards the Black Pearl, not caring about the threat of the shells at all.

With their huge bodies, they could create large enough waves with just one step, which hit the Black Pearl, making it impossible for it to aim. The goblins could only fire based on their feelings, and whether they could hit the target or not was entirely up to fate.

Jack watched the Deepbeard King approaching, and could only look at Farondis, "Do you really have no solution at all?"

Farondis gritted his teeth and said, "If I had a way, I wouldn't have been drained of my mana dozens of times in a row by him."

Jack almost vomited blood when he heard this. There is no other way. You still want to lure this big guy out. Aren't you just asking for death?
The two looked at each other in silence. They both thought that the other had a solution, which resulted in the current situation.

Finally, it was Jack who asked, "Does this guy have any weaknesses?"

Farondis shook his head. "King Deepbeard has very high defense and magic resistance. If I had enough mana, I might be able to use large-scale magic to seriously injure him. Now, the only way is to bombard him in the face with a cannonball and kill him with one blow."

"If the cannon is useful, why would I ask you?" Jack continued, "I don't believe he has no weaknesses."

Farondis thought for a moment and said with a strange expression, "As a special humanoid creature, his weakness may be inside his body. If you can enter his body, with the sharpness of Quelnas, perhaps we still have a chance to defeat him."

Jack thought of a scene where a fool jumped into the monster's body from its mouth...

He quickly drove this stupid image out of his mind and said firmly: "I will not crawl into his mouth!"

Farondis nodded. "It is indeed dangerous to enter through his mouth. His bite force is amazing. However, if you enter through his back door——"

"Don't even think about it!"

Jack immediately refused.

Farondis persuaded earnestly: "This is our only chance to defeat him... Hey, what are you going to do?"

Jack ignored Farodis's words and headed straight for the stairwell.
