Game of Thrones: The Red Dragon Lord.

Chapter 185 Lure the Enemy
But now the battle is unavoidable, facing the three strange warships unique to the Iron People, the slow-moving Sunset Beauty has no way to escape.

Gavin, who was accompanied by fifty Blood Dragon Guards, was not worried about a battle breaking out with the enemy. It was just that it was difficult to stop the enemy simply by relying on the Blood Dragon Guards and conventional means. The speed of the three strange warships was too fast, unless the Blazing Shadow was used.

Gavin was hesitating whether to summon the Blazing Shadow. After all, he met Euron Greyjoy, a guy who might have a record of shooting down a dragon in the future, and he would undoubtedly be a troublemaker for the situation in Westeros.

After thinking for a moment, Gavin resisted the urge to summon Blazing Shadow.

Looking at the sea of ​​smoke not far away, Gavin gradually came up with a plan in his mind.

Gavin made up his mind and immediately shouted, "Raise the sails and speed up, aiming at the sea of ​​smoke. The Serenity will not be able to catch up with us in a short time."

Hearing Gavin's order, the helmsman was a little confused for a moment, his eyes full of confusion and anxiety.

Could it be that this gentleman wanted to cross the Sea of ​​Smoke? But compared to pirates, entering the Sea of ​​Smoke seemed even more dangerous.

According to legend, there is still a curse of the doomsday catastrophe left there. Anyone who often sails on the sea will automatically avoid the Sea of ​​Smoke. Only those explorers who are willing to risk their lives will step into the Sea of ​​Smoke in order to enter the ruins of Valyria.

Just as the helmsman hesitated, Kairos pushed him away, grabbed the wheel and took control himself, shouting, "Didn't you hear the order? Target the sea of ​​smoke."

The mercenaries who knew Gavin's identity took action one after another. Like a group of well-trained warriors, they took over the crew's jobs and took control of the Sunset Beauty.

With His Majesty on the ship, they are not afraid of the Smoke Sea, because His Majesty brought back the existence of the dragon from there.

As the Dragon King of old Valyria, this cursed land that others would avoid is like home to the Dragon King.

Faced with the ferocious mercenaries, the crew members did not dare to stop them and were forced to step aside, standing nervously, their hearts filled with fear and anxiety.

The Blood Dragon Guards, sensing Gavin's order, walked out of the cabin one after another, ready to face the next battle.

Euron Greyjoy stood on the deck of the Silence, looking at the Sunset Belle which was speeding away, a sneer appeared on his face, and then he quickly ordered the crew to give chase.

Strangely, no one in the crew who received the order responded, but just carried out his order in silence.

The ship was named "Tranquility" because all the crew members had their tongues cut out by the crazy Euron Greyjoy.

In this way, there was no noise from the crew on the ship, and except for the sound of the waves, there was silence. At the same time, cutting off the crew's tongue could also prevent anyone from leaking his secrets.

As soon as the Silent Tranquility completed its turn, oars were extended impatiently from both sides of the ship and they chased after the Sunset Beauty.

With the help of the three strange sails and the paddling of the oars, the Tranquility was rapidly closing the distance between the two ships, while also getting closer and closer to the fog of the sea of ​​smoke.

The Sunset Beauty, which had taken the lead, was ultimately the better ship and sailed into the fog of the sea of ​​smoke first. Its huge ship disappeared from the sight of the Tranquility.

Seeing the prey escape, Euron Greyjoy couldn't help but go crazy. Uncontrollable anger filled his heart. He stared at the direction where the Sunset Beauty disappeared, and his eyes gradually became crazy, like a trapped beast.

The crew of the Serenity, who did not hear the order to slow down, could only helplessly steer the Serenity towards the fog, and no one dared to slow down.

Following the direction where the Sunset Beauty disappeared, the Tranquility slowly sailed into the sea of ​​smoke, and was tightly wrapped by thick gray fog.

The fog seemed to have life, wrapping around the Serenity in wisps, making it impossible to see even an inch ahead.

The vision of the people on the ship was compressed to a very small area, and the crew members couldn't help feeling uneasy.

In this suffocating silence, suddenly, a black shadow broke through the thick fog like lightning. Before everyone could react, a crossbow arrow with a rope had accurately shot towards the Serenity.

The crossbow arrow shot into the side with great impact force, causing the hull to shake slightly in an instant.

The rope was stretched straight in the fog, and the taut rope hummed, as if arrogantly informing the enemy of its position. This scene brought endless consternation to the crew of the Serenity.

After being stunned, the crew members on the Serenity quickly came to their senses.

They looked in the direction where the crossbow arrows were coming from, their eyes full of vigilance and alertness, and quickly turned the crossbow cannon towards the direction where the crossbow arrows were coming from.

At this time, Euron Greyjoy walked forward with a gloomy face.

His crazy eyes scanned the surrounding fog, as if trying to penetrate the thick fog and find the enemy's trace.

Looking at the provocative rope, he showed an excited smile on his face and said, "Haha...hahaha, you dare to provoke me, I will make you all pay a heavy price."

He immediately gave the order for the Serenity to sail in the direction of the rope.

On the other side, the Sunset Beauty slowly slowed down and did not sail into the depths of the sea of ​​smoke, but waited for the appearance of the Tranquility.

On the deck, everyone was also making hasty preparations.

The mercenaries held their weapons tightly, their muscles tense, ready to engage in battle at any time.

The crew members who had been nervous and anxious before now found their weapons one after another. Although they were still afraid, they also mustered up their courage.

Only the Blood Dragon Guards stood quietly on the deck, like sculptures, motionless. Their calmness gave the others a glimmer of confidence.

Gavin stood at the bow, looking deeply into the fog ahead. He knew that this battle was inevitable and they had to go all out.

After a while, the Serenity slowly emerged from the fog and appeared in Gavin's sight.

As the fog blocked their vision, the distance between the two ships was too far to allow the use of catapults, and the most they could use was crossbows to fire at each other.

Kairos, who was commanding on the deck, noticed the appearance of the Serenity. His eyes flashed and he gave a decisive order.

The two crossbows of the Sunset Beauty fired instantly, and the crossbow arrows shot towards the bow of the Serenity like a meteor. With a loud bang, one of the crossbows on the bow of the Serenity was successfully destroyed.

The crew of the Serenity were outraged by the sudden attack and they immediately fought back.

A larger number of crossbow arrows, with a powerful impact force, instantly blew away the two crossbows of the Sunset Beauty, and the crew members who were operating the crossbows were also affected by the crossbows. The powerful kinetic energy instantly penetrated their bodies, and they screamed for a while, making some crew members even more panicked.

In the initial battle between the two sides, Gavin was slightly at a disadvantage.

But Gavin had anticipated this and still stood calmly on the second deck with a very peaceful expression.

The Sunset Beauty was just an armed merchant ship. Facing the long-range attacks of the three strange warships, it was bound to be at a disadvantage in terms of both the number of crossbows and the range.

After firing a round of crossbow arrows, the Tranquility did not reload, but instead drew out their weapons and prepared for battle. Having rich experience in naval battles, they knew that with the current distance between the two sides, the two ships would collide before the crossbows were reloaded, and the only way to decide the outcome of the battle was to board a battle.
