Port battle 2

The alarm bells of Castleton Harbour rang out at this moment, the deep sound carrying far...

The Sea Wolf had already raised its anchor,

The sailors had cut the cables,

As long as they adjusted the direction of the sea lane at the dock and raised the sails, they could use the north wind to rush out of the bay.

However, before high tide, the deep-water port's lane wasn't very deep, and these sailors weren't familiar with it.

Small fishing boats could pass, but the Great Sea Ship was very likely to run aground in the mudflats, especially on such a dark night.

'Dang, dang, dang'

The Sea Wolf's pre-departure bell rang.

The sailors had only hoisted the Main Sail on the Main Mast halfway up.

Several sharp arrows shot from all around, hitting the sea ship one after another. These arrows shot from the darkness had ropes attached to their tails. The giant arrows pierced deeply into the ship's side, followed by the sound of heavy objects falling into the water.

Under the cover of the night, more than a dozen fishing boats surrounded the Sea Wolf, shooting harpoons with ropes from all angles, firmly locking the Sea Wolf in place.

The sound of heavy objects falling into the water was the sound of them tying heavy stones to the ropes and throwing them into the sea.

While waiting for reinforcements around the Sea Wolf, this group of Elf Rangers secretly requisitioned nearly twenty fishing boats from the dock, surrounding the Sea Wolf.

This was to prevent the Sea Wolf from leaving the port, intending to use the harpoons and ropes on the fishing boats to restrain the Sea Wolf...

The Main Sail on the Sea Wolf gradually billowed, and listening to the cracking sound of the Mast, more than forty Oars were swung with all their might, but the sea ship could only move forward at a snail's pace.

The sailors on the ship ran to the Gunwale one after another. Seeing the harpoons and ropes tied to the outside of the hull, they immediately tied themselves with slings, hung down from the Deck, and risked cutting the hooks and ropes.

Another group of Elves carried three Fish Spears to the Dock. After the bases of these Fish Spears were simply fixed with stones, they continuously shot several ropes.

These ropes almost all hit the stern of the Sea Wolf's hull.

The Elves tied these ropes to the Stone Pile on the Dock.

Another volley of Arrows immediately flew out from the Gunwale.

Several Elves were immediately injured, and the remaining Elves dragged the wounded out of the Short Bow's range.

At this time, Captain Simpson led fifty Elven Guards and quietly boarded the sea ship on the left side of the Sea Wolf.

After trying to persuade the Captain with reason... but still to no avail, two Elven Guards put their Long Swords on the Captain's neck, finally temporarily gaining control of the sea ship.

A group of sailors lifted the Rainproof Cloth covering the Fish Spear at the bow of the ship, skillfully replaced it with the largest Whaling Harpoon, and shot it at the Sea Wolf's Gunwale...

The one-and-a-half-meter-long harpoon, thicker than a thumb and surrounded by wolf-tooth barbs, was firmly nailed into the Sea Wolf's hull.

This sea ship even had a Winch specially prepared for whaling. Even ordinary Long Swords could not easily cut the Tung Oil-soaked ropes.

All three ropes were nailed to the Gunwale near the bow's ram. Captain Simpson had twenty sailors work together to push the Winch, stirring the three ropes, forcing the sea ship, which was steadily docked at the Dock, to hold the Sea Wolf tightly.

This sea ship was more than half the size of the Sea Wolf. When pushing the Winch, the Sea Wolf hardly moved.

However, the hull of this sea ship was severely tilted. Although the ropes on the Dock and the Anchor sunk in the mud stabilized the hull, the entire ship was still approaching the Sea Wolf little by little under the pull of the Winch.

Captain Simpson stood next to the Gunwale, holding a small Round Shield in his hand, occasionally blocking an Arrow flying from the opposite side.

The leather on his thigh armor already had two bloody holes from the dark arrows, but fortunately, the wounds weren't deep.

The Elf Guards around him were also bearing arrow wounds...

Everyone stared intently at the approaching Sea Wolf, ignoring the ship's severe tilt, waiting for the moment the two ships' gunwales were close enough... to jump ship.

The Elf Rangers on the dock and a group of strong Elves gathered at the Port rushed onto a sea ship on the right side of the Sea Wolf.

In comparison, the Captain of this sea ship was more clear-headed.

Seeing the Elf Rangers board, he directly uncovered the rainproof cloth covering the Fish Spears and proactively had the crew shoot five Harpoons into the stern of the Sea Wolf.

As a result, along with the dozens of thrown grappling hooks, the Sea Wolf's hull was almost covered in ropes.

The Sea Wolf's Main Sail was almost completely billowed out.

It even pulled the Main Mast, causing it to creak, but the hull remained at the edge of the Dock.

It couldn't even enter the Port's alleyway...

Even more frightening to all the Sea Wolf's Sailors was that the two sea ships next to them were constantly approaching under the pull of the grappling hooks.

Once the three ships collided, the next step would be to jump into ship-to-ship combat.

Roy followed Princess Ophelia, standing on the Port's Dock with a group of young Nobles.

These Nobles were not allowed to participate in the boarding battle. Some, seeing that the battle situation here was not optimistic, began to become anxious, and some secretly sent their followers back to the Upper District to ask for reinforcements.

Roy stood with Klayr, watching the battle on the Dock with the group of young Elves.

Captain Simpson's team of Elf Guards and Elf Rangers had not been able to gain any advantage from the beginning to the present. On the contrary, the Sea Wolf almost left the Port.

The current situation was not optimistic. The Elf Warriors needed to jump onto the Sea Wolf to fight...

Obviously, the number of Elf Guards was not dominant.

Roy watched the battle on the sea ship. For the first time, in addition to being passionate, he also felt a strong sense of powerlessness.

Thinking that he couldn't help and that Jasper was still imprisoned in the Bottom Cabin of the Sea Wolf, he was a little worried about Jasper...

Although a large group of Elf Guards were brought in, they did not take down the Sea Wolf in one fell swoop as expected.

He stood in the crowd, staring at the three sea ships, his body tensing uncontrollably, and he could only clench his fists tightly.

"Do you feel a strong sense of powerlessness about this battle on the Dock...?"

Princess Ophelia suddenly turned her head and asked Roy behind her.

Roy was caught off guard and stunned by Princess Ophelia's question.

Then he nodded blankly.

Princess Ophelia glanced at him and said casually:

"Don't be discouraged. You need to keep learning, and then you can work hard to become the Warrior you want to be..."

Roy's heart suddenly stirred slightly, and then he couldn't help but wonder, was he going to become a Combat Priest?

Roy was caught off guard...

Turning his head, he saw Klayr squatting on the ground with a group of young Elves, selecting weapons.

He didn't know which Elven Nobles had managed to get so many fine weapons.

Among these weapons, besides swords and shields, there were actually Spears and war hammers...

Some young Elves were even putting on Light Armor.

Klayr bent down and picked up a well-crafted Short Spear.

Roy casually grabbed a Long Bow from behind and asked Klayr in a low voice:

"Klayr, how's your archery?"

"Not bad!" Klayr replied.

Roy casually shoved the Long Bow into Klayr's hands, and also picked up a Quiver and tossed it to him again.

Taking the Short Spear from Klayr's hand, Roy wanted to pick a Light Shield, but all the square shields had already been taken, and he only got a small cast iron Round Shield, which didn't look big, but felt very heavy when put on his arm.

Klayr asked with some doubt: "Have you also learned to use a War Spear?"

Roy was getting familiar with the shortened Spear, which was about one hundred and eighty centimeters long, very flexible to wield, and had a very sharp blade.

"No, I chose it because its length is just right. Those Sailors on the ship are basically equipped with Scimitars, and this is a bit longer than a Scimitar..."

Klayr adjusted the bowstring of the Long Bow in his hand, reluctantly hanging the Quiver around his waist, and asked with confusion:

"Then why did you give me a set of bows and Arrows?"

Roy put his arm around Klayr's shoulders and said to him in a low voice, "When we disembark to fight, I need you to cover me with Arrows from behind. Klayr, can I trust you?"

"Of course!" Klayr patted his chest to assure him.

Then, the two stretched out their right hands and clasped them tightly together.

Belle Klayr was standing in the crowd. When she saw her younger brother picking weapons and preparing to join the battle, she was taken aback by his adventurous move.

She was thinking about what reason she could use to persuade him to give up this idea without hurting his little bit of courage and confidence.

She didn't expect that his friend would take the Short Flying Spear and hand him a Long Bow and a Quiver instead.

This made Belle Klayr's heart, which had been hanging, relax slightly.

As an archer, at least Klayr didn't have to engage in close combat with those Sailors...

The surrounding young Elves had already picked up their weapons, and everyone had recovered from the shock of arriving at the Port Dock just now.

Seeing the Elven Guard and Elf Ranger rushing onto the Sea Ships on both sides, these young Elves also took the initiative to pick up the weapons on the ground and ran towards Captain Simpson's Sea Ship.

The young Elves charging at the very front were none other than Wolf.Gokes and Wilson.Griffiths.

Just at the ball, the two had been somewhat unpleasant with each other because they both wanted to dance the first dance with Princess Ophelia, and now they were secretly competing again.

Roy and Klayr did not rush to the front.

At this time, Roy did not hide his identity as a Novice Priest of the Goddess of Freedom Temple. Standing in front of Klayr, he began to chant a Prayer. As a Divine Rune filled with Holy Light appeared in front of him, the Prayer ended, and the Divine Rune condensed into a pale golden fist, which merged into Klayr's body from the top of his head.

Afterwards, Roy also cast 'Strength Blessing' on himself.

"You're actually a Priest of the Goddess of Freedom Temple?"

Princess Ophelia, standing to the side, said with some surprise.

Roy respectfully turned around and replied, "Just a Novice Priest. My companion who is trapped on the ship is also a Novice Priest. They originally invited us to purify the Wraiths on the ship..."

In fact, Roy was also thinking of casting 'Strength Blessing' on the other young Elves.

After becoming a Level 2 Novice Priest, he could cast this Divine Magic four times in a row.

However, it seemed that none of the young Elves had the patience to stay and wait
