Two Worlds: I studied abroad at Hogwarts

Chapter 129 The Use of Spells

The Venetian Islands consist of six main islands and more than 300 small islands.

Many of these places have not yet formed human settlements due to underwater reefs and harsh weather.

These places became a paradise for pirates.

Among them, Miles on Sea Snake Island is one such pirate.

The pirates also have their own organization, and Miles also knows that some merchant ships cannot be robbed after they fly special flags.

However, compared to the pitiful amount of goods divided up by the pirate organization, this time a big customer gave more, just to allow the pirates to go out to sea and rob.

Before launching the war, the Maynila Empire was well aware of its own shortcomings.

Because it lacks large natural harbors and shipyards, the naval construction of the Maynila Empire is far inferior to that of the Federation.

This also made the Venetian Islands temporarily a place far away from the war.

But the Menila Empire also had its own advantages. They sent a large number of people carrying gold coins and various equipment to find the pirates hiding in the Vena Islands.

Use the most tangible benefits to lure the pirates to constantly harass nearby ships and islands, and truly cut off the rear supply lines of the Gracia Federation.

Miles received a lot of good things this time, and then went out to sea to rob.

The Sea Serpent was originally a three-masted sailing ship, slightly larger than the Thorn, and very fast.

Not only are the sails powerful, but there are also rowers on board, which enables the Sea Snake to deal with various emergencies.

"Hey boys, this is a three-ship deal, much more lucrative than the previous two. As usual, I'll pick the women first, and the rest are yours."

After the pirate leader Miles finished his words, the nearly three hundred pirates on the ship all laughed and roared.

He can rob money, play with women, and kill people with great pleasure.

This period of time could be said to be the most comfortable time for the pirates on the Sea Serpent.

Just as the pirates were holding their weapons and shouting wildly, a gunpowder barrel suddenly exploded.

boom!
The explosion occurred in the crowd.

Because they were completely unprepared, the three pirates nearby died, and one of them was even blown into several pieces.

"Which bastard didn't keep an eye on the torch?"

Miles, standing on the command deck of the Sea Serpent, originally thought that it was the enemy's artillery shells that hit his ship.

But after seeing the power of the explosion, he knew that this was the powder keg on his ship.

"This is a powerful weapon sent by the Maynila Empire! If you can't take good care of the torch, you will die."

boom!
boom!
Before Miles could finish his words, another powder keg exploded.

More and more gunpowder barrels exploded, some of which were ignited by Moon's [Fire Spell].

Some were ignited by the flames from the explosions, caused by pirates carelessly placing gunpowder barrels too close.

As the number of gunpowder barrel explosions increased, the pirates panicked, but some pirates still noticed something unusual.

"Push all the powder kegs into the sea!"

Miles reissued the order, but the pirates had lost more than thirty men.

The deck was littered with flames and mangled flesh and blood.

The pirates who managed to survive also knew what was causing the trouble, so they picked up gunpowder barrels and threw them into the sea.

However, during the throwing process, some gunpowder barrels continued to explode, and more than a dozen pirates were torn to pieces by the strong gunpowder again.

"Boss! There might be a magician on the other side."

Some smart pirates reacted and roared at Miles.

"What are you afraid of? It's not like I haven't killed magicians before."

By now, Miles already understood why these powder kegs exploded.

If it's not human factors, then it can only be those damn magic.

The distance between them and the enemy ship was getting closer and closer, but the sails on the Sea Snake had just been burned.

Miles could only ask the slaves, whose hands and feet were bound, to row the boat faster. "I'm going to teach you a lesson!"

Seeing such heavy casualties before even coming into contact with the enemy's ship, Miles clenched his teeth, narrowed his eyes, and his expression became more sinister.

At this time, he had already taken out the latest firearms sent by the Maynila Empire.

A golden-colored percussion flintlock rifle made entirely of metal.

When the pirates saw Miles adding bullets to the gun, they instantly gained confidence.

The last time they robbed a ship, they also encountered a magician.

The opponent could also summon flames, but in the end he still couldn't avoid the bullets from this gun.

After seeing the explosions on the pirate ship one after another, Gold on the Thorn roared excitedly.

"Haha, the pirates are dead!"

The explosion on the pirate ship caused far more damage than the Thorn's cannon.

The crew members were also very excited at this time. They had never thought that they could fight pirates in this way.

There were so many casualties before they even faced each other, which made them full of confidence in the upcoming war.

Just as Gold was roaring, people came out of the cabin one after another holding some long-handled muskets.

This is a matchlock gun that Gold specially purchased for the ship. Because it has not been used very often, some of the barrels have rusted.

However, Moon still asked him to take out all his long-range shooting tools.

"Not many of my crew members know how to do this, so these should be enough."

There were more than a hundred matchlock rifles, and after the final selection, there were only more than fifty left.

Seeing that the guns were still in good condition and had plenty of bullets, Zalan put forward his own suggestions.

"Someone living in the lower cabin should know how to use it."

"But."

Just now, Gold ordered the lower cabin to be locked to prevent these people from running out and causing trouble.

Now that Zalan asked him to release these people, he was naturally reluctant.

"Don't worry, this battle shouldn't last long."

Hearing Zalan's relaxed tone, Gold turned to look at Moon who was still casting spells, and then made up his mind to ask someone to find someone who could use a musket.

When the pirates pushed all the gunpowder into the sea, they all felt relieved.

The explosion that just happened was enough to scare them, but now that they have no gunpowder, they just want to get on board and take revenge.

Of course, Moon's counterattack plan does not only include the [Fire Spell].

After the sails on the pirate ship were burned, its speed slowed down a lot.

Moon asked Gold to keep the Thorn away, and then he began to cast a new spell.

[Leg Lock Curse]

This is the fastest and most familiar spell that Moon currently possesses.

Moon can cast the [Leg Locking Spell] twelve times in one breath.

On the same pirate ship, 12 pirates were pinned down.

After the pirates were immobilized, they would soon have an arrow or a bullet hole in their bodies.

This is the second round of counterattack!

Moon cast the spell so quickly that Zalan could keep up at first.
