“Roger that, Boss Liu! I shall complete the mission without fail!” upon receiving orders, Ye Xue’er summoned the Guardian Warship. After all of their crew had boarded the warship, they began cruising toward the spot where Chen Ziyu had fallen into the water.
Meanwhile, near the Zero Guild Warship, Chen Ziyu and the others along with him were attempting to jump aboard the warship in order to confront the players face to face. However, the spiritual energy bullets constantly raining down from above did not give them any chance to do so as they were struck down one after another.
Even if they were able to avoid the spiritual energy bullets by diving underwater, it was merely a momentary escape. The moment they resurfaced, they would still suffer the constant bombardment.
Under such circumstances, the members of the Great Dragon Guild were slaughtered continuously.
Watching the glowing orbs of spiritual materials and equipment in a floating state of protection, Li Xing and the others that boarded the Zero Guild Warship laughed in elation.
Just then, their attention was caught by a pink warship that emerged from the water far away.
“Brothers, we’ve got new cargo coming our way, hurry and get rid of these few people underwater! Let’s begin the next round of hunting!” a fleeting sneer flickered in Jason’s eyes. He continued bombarding the water surface with spiritual energy bullets, killing Chen Ziyu who had just resurfaced and only had a sliver of health points remaining.
“Let’s dive underwater and scavenge the spoils! Then, we shall move on to our next target!”
Jason sneered viciously as he noticed that the Guardian Warship from afar had fled after becoming aware of their presence.
After all the glowing orbs were looted, a huge rumbling noise sounded from the interior of the Zero Guild Warship as it zoomed toward the Guardian Warship like a released arrow.
“Boss Liu, the target is coming after us. They’re too fast – we might not be able to hold on. It’s best if you prepare another warship to use as bait, too!” Ye Xue’er grit her teeth as she watched the super warship approaching.
Hearing this, Liu Chai’s expression grew serious. He had not expected that they could possess such a powerful warship.
The Great Dragon Warship and the Guardian Warship were both considered top-tier in their fleet, yet they still paled in comparison to the European server’s super warship. It was clear that this was an extremely high-level ship.
Liu Chai began his preparation immediately. He dispatched another warship in the direction of the Guardian Warship.
Just as Ye Xue’er had predicted, the Zero Guild Warship caught up with them quickly. The large naval ram plowed a huge hole through the rear of their warship, causing the seawater to gush in.
As the Guardian Warship began sinking, cheers erupted from the crew aboard the Zero Guild’s Warship.
Such an overpowering victory gave them enormous satisfaction.
However, at the same time, another warship emerged not far away. The moment it appeared, it veered sharply and sped away.
“This time, let’s sink the other warship first before returning for the loot!” as he spoke, Jason willed the Zero Guild Warship to crush over the half-submerged Guardian Warship, letting it completely sink into the water.
“Looks like our presence is already known to the others,” Reinhardt let out a smile on his face.
“If you take a look at the forum, you’d see that they planned to launch a siege attack against us!” Li Xing shrugged.
Upon hearing this, the rest of the crew cackled in amusement.
They had full faith in the Zero Guild Warship. At the very least, its speed was unrivaled in this territory. Even if a large fleet of enemies were to appear before them, there would be no difficulty in escaping.
While they were still goofing around, densely scattered heads began emerging on the surrounding water’s surface.
A single ship appeared… then a dozen… followed by hundreds…
Numerous warships suddenly appeared in all directions, leaving Li Xing and the rest in shock.
In the blink of an eye, hundreds of thousands of ships emerged and formed multiple layers, encircling them at the center.
“Oh my god, what’s going on? Why are we surrounded? Where exactly did they come from?” Jason looked around in disbelief.
“Oh no, the two ships earlier were meant to lure us in. They were lying an ambush underwater as we came closer, waiting for us to enter their trap!” said Li Xing with a somber look on his face.
“Quick, retrieve the warship! We’re going offline!” Reinhardt bellowed furiously as he looked at the huge number of warships scattered around them.
Yet, at that moment, a Mage player, who was aboard a ship close to them, condensed a globe of water in his palm and launched it toward them.
Splash! The globe of water struck the surface of the warship and dispersed into a spray of water droplets.
[Under battle mode, players may not retrieve their warships or go offline!]
The faces of the crew aboard the Zero Guild Warship fell as the game notification appeared before them. They finally realized that they had truly been ambushed.
Although being killed was not a terrifying thing, being killed in an inter-server battle would cause a random amount of one’s supplies to burst out. Each player was carrying a large number of supplies, so the cost of each death would be very high.
Moreover, if this Level 12 super warship was destroyed, the spiritual materials needed to repair it would cost a fortune.
“On my command, smash into the enemy’s warship and surround them! Mages on the remaining warships, ready the cannons! Warriors and Assassins, rush forward and strike them down!”
Hearing Liu Chai’s orders, the warships near the Zero Guild Warship disregarded their damage losses and rushed forward wildly, surrounding it. Behind them, more warships sailed forward, further tightening their hold on the super warship.
The gap between the warships grew smaller. Warriors and assassins leaped over the warships toward the Zero Guild Warship in an attempt to board it and fight in close combat with the enemy.
Facing an ambush of such a scale, the players aboard the Zero Guild Warship were dumbfounded and at a loss of what they should do.
Waves of spells sent ripples spreading across the protection layer outside the warship. It was only a matter of time before the spells broke through.
“There’s still a chance, we must go underwater! We haven’t tried going underwater before. Hurry, Jason!” Li Xing bellowed.
He knew that once the enemy players came aboard their warship, they would be dead for sure.
Upon hearing this, Jason quickly instructed the warship to dive underwater.
Roar!
A deafening roar sounded as the huge warship began submerging underwater.
Seeing that the strategy of diving underwater was effective, Li Xing and the rest of the crew cheered. Once they were underwater, escaping the encirclement would not be a problem at all.
On the other hand, Liu Chai and the rest of the old players stared furiously at the scene unfolding before them. They did not expect that this warship was capable of doing such a thing.
As the Zero Guild Warship dove underwater completely, the only thing that was visible from the surface was a dark shadow slowly traveling forward.
“All warships, after them! Surely they won’t be able to remain underwater forever!” upon command, the fleet of warships altered their directions and began moving forward as they maintained their circle around the shadow in the water.
An hour later…
Below the water surface, a solemn expression remained on the faces of the Zero Guild’s members.
Since resistance was stronger underwater, their speed was restricted. As a result, they were unable to shake off the pursuers. If this were to go on, they would be back in the trap when they eventually resurfaced.
They tried diving deeper into the sea, too, thinking that this would prevent the others from locating them.
Yet, this was to no avail either. They seemed to have locked them under target. No matter where they went, their warships would tail after them. They simply could not think of a way to shake off the warship fleet’s encirclement.
The situation was distressing to the crew of Zero Guild members.
“Oh right, we could try the ocean safe zone! Attacks are prohibited there, so there’s nothing they can do about us!” Reinhardt suggested suddenly.
“You’re right! Once we’re in the safe zone, they won’t be able to cause damage to us!” Li Xing’s expression brightened.
“Hahaha, why hadn’t I thought of this? We can still remain underwater for two hours, it should be sufficient to cover the distance. Hurry, toward the safe zone off the Liuli Coast!” Jason laughed as he heard Reinhardt’s suggestion. He hurriedly turned the warship around and cruised toward the Liuli Coast.
On the surface of the water…
“Boss, something’s not right. It looks like they’re moving toward the Liuli Coast. That’s our territory though – are they looking for death?” a player asked, peering at the tracking compass he was holding.
“Damn it, they’re aiming for the safe zone, we have to stop them!” Liu Chai barked into the army live chat channel immediately.
Upon hearing him, most of the players realized that the situation had taken a turn for the worse. If the enemy were to enter the safe zone where battle was prohibited, it would be equivalent to allowing their escape.
Instantly, numerous spells were bombarded underwater. However, the Zero Guild Warship had dove deep enough to ensure that none of the spells were able to reach it.
As they approached the Liuli Coast, Liu Chai’s expression darkened.
“Boss Liu, I know a way to defeat them!” a voice sounded in the live chat channel.
During the third hour of pursuing the Zero Guild Warship, an enormous warship surfaced within the safe zone off the Liuli Coast.
Behind it came a flurry of warships of different sizes, which proceeded to encircle it at the center.
“Safely arrived, perfect!” Li Xing and the guild members stood at the bow of the ship. Witnessing the original players’ infuriated looks, they felt a pang of triumph.
As all damages inflicted within the safe zone would be nullified, they were not afraid of being sunk.
“Brothers, I beg your pardon, but we’re now as safe as can be!” Jason climbed to the top of the mast and laughed as he overlooked the scene below.
Watching the smug enemy, a hint of a smirk flashed across Liu Chai’s eyes. Then, he faced the live chat channel and shouted, “Brothers! All aboard the enemy’s warship!”
Upon his command, mobs of players crowded the Zero Guild Warship and climbed up the ship’s body. One after another, they occupied the deck.
Jason shrugged as he watched the scene occur.
“Brothers, I remind you that this is a safe zone and we are protected here. It’d be useless no matter how you attack us!”
As the number of players occupying the deck grew, Li Xing and the others could feel their anger. However, they were not worried at all since they were invincible in the safe zone.
“Brothers, dump out the heaviest objects you have within your inventories. Let’s weigh this ship down!”
Upon his orders, the players aboard the Zero Guild Warship broke into devilish smiles and began rummaging through their inventories.
Watching the players as they dumped objects onto the deck, Li Xing and the others were dumbfounded. They had no idea what was going on.
However, Li Xing soon caught on to the problem as he frantically turned to the ship’s status menu.
[Weight capacity: 34/100]
“They’re trying to weigh us down!” Li Xing cried in disbelief.
Hearing this, the Zero Guild’s members turned white. They finally realized the enemy’s intentions.
“Damn, buddy, I can’t believe you kept two boulders in your inventory! You’re fantastic!”
“Hey, you’re not bad yourself… walking around with such a huge bunch of rusty old metal – how interesting!”
“Woah, that chap over there, you must be a genius to be carrying an elephant carcass around with you!”
COMMENT
“You there with an inventory full of rubble, perhaps you can enlighten me on what you were using them for?”
As the supplies on the deck piled up, the Zero Guild Warship’s weight capacity gradually transformed into a yellow hue, which eventually turned into a shade of red symbolizing the maximum weight capacity.
At this moment, someone began playing the theme song from the Titanic in the live chat channel…
In the midst of the music, the Zero Guild Warship began sinking. All the original players heartily began cheering!
“Roger that, Boss Liu! I shall complete the mission without fail!” upon receiving orders, Ye Xue’er summoned the Guardian Warship. After all of their crew had boarded the warship, they began cruising toward the spot where Chen Ziyu had fallen into the water.
