A Guide to Becoming a God Starting from a Monastery

That is the ship that has been following us from the very beginning.

Like the Knights' ship, it was a sailboat rather than a galley, and the kind with fewer crew members.

It wasn't a real gunfire, but a deterrent warning, warning the other party not to come closer.

The sailboat was hanging far away at the beginning, but now it is approaching, as if it is going to join the battle.

That's why we fired warning shots here.

The sound of the cannon made Joseph frown.

This ship could also be enemy reinforcements.

However, even the reinforcements could not have expected the Knights to win so quickly.

The number of sailors on a sailing ship is no more than a hundred at most, while the number of crew members on a medium-sized galley is easily more than two hundred.

Moreover, this galley was definitely well-prepared, and its crew was definitely elite, in no way inferior to the Knights.

Logically, the Knights would not be able to win such a battle. Even if they gained the advantage, it would take a long time to achieve a complete victory.

But with the protection of the country, things turned out to be unexpected.

"Everyone return to the ship!" Joseph shouted loudly and raised his right hand to give the order.

In Thomas's absence, he was the supreme commander.

We must return to our ship and prepare for the next battle.

This galley had already suffered several large breaches in its waterline from previous bombardments. There was no need to worry about it; it would sink sooner or later.

"You guys," he called to a few sailors, "search this ship carefully to see if there's any loot! Take the valuables aboard the boat, and leave the rest behind!"

The Knights began to return to their ship, cutting the grappling ropes and freeing the ship, preparing to fight the next wave of enemies.

Although there were not many casualties, there were many injured.

Without Thomas present to use the bloody cross flag, these injuries could not be treated for the time being and could only be roughly wrapped with bandages to stop the bleeding.

The combat capability of the entire ship was actually reduced by more than half.

Joseph himself also felt tired.

The power to protect the country is also limited.

This almost cheating "collective immobilization technique" cannot be used indefinitely.

Now, if someone on the other ship could hold him down, the battle would most likely be disastrous!

If you want to retreat, you must do it now. There is still one last chance.

The ships of both sides were of the same type, but the Knights' crew consisted of the most skilled sailors, carefully selected from the crew, and their shipmanship was undoubtedly superior to theirs. Therefore, if they wanted to escape, they could theoretically do so.

Once the two sides engage in boarding, there is no way to retreat - this is the nature of naval warfare in this era.

But even so, the Knights had no intention of retreating.

Everyone knows that the Grand Commander is still fighting underwater and cannot return.

At this moment, regardless of anything else, we cannot retreat even for the sake of the commander.

Joseph looked around at the people around him. These were the most senior sailors and warriors of the Knights.

There was a firm look in everyone's eyes.

Everyone knows that the Knights Templar seem to be flourishing now, but in fact the key lies with Grand Master Thomas.

If the Grand Master were to die in battle, the Knights would probably be reduced to their original form.

It has returned to the previous tragic situation of increasing decline and being unable to continue, even suffering heavy losses and being on the verge of collapse.

Joseph looked around without a trace of sadness in his heart.

Some are just moved.

The Grand Master embodies the hopes and will of all the Knights.

If it weren't for this situation, it would be really difficult to accurately feel Thomas' influence in the Knights Templar.

With such morale, we can definitely fight again!

"Load the cannons!" Joseph ordered.

If you really want to fight, you must use the advantage of artillery to attack the opponent first and severely kill the opponent's momentum!

There was a loud bang!

A thick column of water suddenly exploded on the water surface not far from the boat.

The water column flew up to a height of half a day, higher than the boat.

But it was not the suspected enemy sailboat that opened fire, but something else.

Along with this water column, there seemed to be two human figures looming in the sea water.

However, when the water column disappeared, nothing could be seen under the sea, only a vast expanse of blue.

At this time in the sea, Herzl was laughing loudly and madly boosting his strength.

The surrounding waters were under his control, with whirlpools and undercurrents emerging one after another, rushing towards Thomas.

"Haha, I am the master of the sea! Who are you to fight me?"

A crazy smile appeared on Hazel's face, pushing his extraordinary ability to the limit.

He named his extraordinary ability "Ocean Lord".

When you exert your full strength, the entire area around your body becomes an area under your control.

In addition, a mental attack can be mixed in to weaken the opponent's resistance consciousness.

For example, like now.

Undercurrents rushed towards Thomas.

Although it is just a stream of water, anyone who has studied physics knows that a strong and fast enough stream of water can even cut through steel.

Although the undercurrent created by Herzl does not have this ability, it can still cause damage that is no less than that of a sword.

Chapter 246 Intercept 7

Thomas remained suspended in his original position, motionless.

The translucent area opened up, covering the entire area within dozens of meters.

Although he knows that the field has many uses, Thomas has not yet conducted research in this area.

The only currently confirmed use of translucent areas is "cutting".

It's like the Wolf God's domain can greatly weaken magic.

Thomas's domain can also weaken all supernatural powers, including magic and other people's domains.

These undercurrents surged, attacking Thomas, and even broke through the defense of the magic bracelet.

From time to time, it would cut open Thomas's clothes and skin, leaving a bloody wound of varying sizes.

So it looked like Thomas had cracks and wounds all over his body.

Strands of blood floated in the sea.

But in reality, he was minimally hurt.

Without the dual defense of the domain and the bracelet, these undercurrent attacks would not simply leave a hole.

Thomas remained expressionless, ignoring the attacks and focusing his attention on the other party.

Hezil's scimitar attack was the real threat. After all, the domain could not weaken the sharp edge of the sword.

Swords clashed again and again.

Thomas has gradually become accustomed to underwater combat, and when he attacks now, he can fully exert his strength.

He was also a veteran of many battles, so he naturally understood that although Herzl seemed powerful now, he was actually just at the end of his glory.

This kind of ultimate move is definitely not used casually.

Otherwise, it would have been used when I first entered the water instead of waiting until now.

So underwater combat, in the final analysis, is a battle between two people to see who can't hold on first.

The Star Moon Sect, which protects the country, can no longer hold on.

Sure enough, after another wave of attacks, the opponent swam back as before, avoiding Thomas' counterattack. However, instead of continuing to prepare for an attack as before, he turned around and swam towards the sea surface.

I have reached my limit of holding my breath.

I can't hold my breath any longer and have to come to the surface to breathe.

Herzl was not afraid. After all, no matter how powerful Thomas was, he was not as fast as himself in the water.

Thomas couldn't stop himself from taking a breath.

Even so, he couldn't stop Thomas from breathing.

What to do next? As before, it is generally impossible, because the facts have proven that it is ineffective.

Herzl decided to retreat and abandon the mission.

He had given it his all, but he couldn't kill Thomas. There was nothing he could do about it. Even a Grandmaster couldn't blame him.

I just don't know how the battle on the ship will be...

While thinking about this problem, he was already approaching the sea surface.

At this moment, a force suddenly came.

Something that looked like a tentacle wrapped around his ankle, and a huge force pulled his body downwards.

Caught off guard, Herzl was pulled a long distance back by this force.

Then he realized that it was a rope thrown by Thomas.

One end of the rope was in Thomas's hand, and the other end was wrapped around his feet, pulling him underwater.

"How is it possible..." Herzl was shocked.

Thomas actually has this trick? How did he do it?

But before he could think any further, Herzl swung his knife at the rope.

However, the rope loosened in advance and the knife missed.

Although the situation was very suspicious, he didn't have time to care about it at this moment because he was almost unable to hold his breath.

His lungs were sending out crazy warnings. If he didn't surface, he might suffocate to death in the sea.

Just as he was swimming upwards with all his strength, the same force came again.

The rope wrapped around his feet again, pulling him down.

"roll!"

In a rage, he swung his knife again.

The rope loosened prematurely again, and the blade missed again.

Now I see, there's something wrong with this rope...

It wasn't controlled by Thomas, but it... seemed to be alive!

If he tried to float up, the rope would wrap around him and pull his body down.

And every time Herzl swung his knife, the rope would immediately loosen and retreat.

The most important thing is that this is a rope, it is very light and thin, and it does not bear any force.

Herzl's moves were basically ineffective against it, so he could only chop it with a knife. Unfortunately, it was extremely flexible and could always dodge.

Herzl was dragged down and could not surface for a while.

Every time I tried to float up, my legs and feet would be grabbed and pulled down.

The pain in my lungs grew stronger.

Although he was proud of his swimming ability, good at water combat and even better at holding his breath, he had just been holding his breath underwater and was almost exhausted.
