Speaker of the Dead Advances

Boom boom boom!

The sound of continuous artillery fire could be heard.

Unbeknownst to anyone, beneath the calm surface of the sea, some hazy, indistinct shapes were approaching the Warship. With a muffled creak, a Warship from a Southern Island Nation suddenly rocked, followed by a massive black shadow ramming into it, causing the ship to capsize and many of its sailors to fall into the sea. The fog on the sea grew thicker and thicker, and although the sounds could still be heard, they became increasingly indistinct amidst the gunfire.

The Viking Pirate ' warships caught up with the Arendelle Warship, and the pirates threw out their grappling hooks and boarded the decks. Soon, a fierce melee broke out.

Everywhere, there were shouts of battle!

The sky was shrouded in fog, making it difficult for ships to even maintain their sense of direction. It was only then that Prince Hans realized he had completely lost control of the fleet. He could only command the twenty or thirty Warship that were following him. Once they were more than five hundred meters away, he couldn't even see the shadows of the warships, let alone give orders for battle. And since the hulls of Warship were over five meters long, unless they were lined up side by side, they could easily disappear without a trace once the distance between them was created.

"This damn fog!"

Prince Hans slammed his fist on the deck and said in a deep voice, "Can't we disperse it? The other Warship are all out of contact, and they can't see the Command Flag we've hung up."

The fog reduces visibility to a maximum of ten meters; beyond that, everything becomes a hazy blur.

Faint screams could be heard nearby, but it was unclear whether they came from the Arendelle navy or Prince Hans's own men.

"Not good!"

The high-ranking Sorcerer standing beside him suddenly changed his expression and said in a deep voice, "That Deep Sea Monster has surfaced!"

Boom!

The sound of an impact came from ahead, mixed with the excited howls of the Viking Pirate, as if they had caught up with an Arendelle Warship.

Click.

The sound of the deck cracking could be heard.

Drenched and covered in seaweed, the Undrowned Undead of the Undrowning appeared, grinning as they pounced. Wielding sharp blades, they reaped the enemies who had fallen into the sea. In the ocean, even those with higher class levels might not be able to defeat these breathless sea Undead; the Seawater was their primary battlefield, and the Undrowned Undead had a clear advantage. From the dark Seawater, Animate Rigging shot out, binding the bodies of their enemies and dragging them directly to the seabed, like a gaping maw devouring everything.

Blood spread.

The Ghost Ship, the Speaker of the Dead, underwent a slight mutation. Many dead Wraith appeared on the Ghost Sail Ghost Sail, and a dark red line faintly emerged on them.

Those were naturally formed lines, like blood vessels and veins, not something that someone else had added.

Soren's expression was cold.

Concentrating on manipulating the Animate Rigging on the Speaker of the Dead, he paused briefly after harvesting the enemies on one Warship before turning his attention to another group of enemies.

But just then...

He discovered an Arendelle Warship that appeared to be on its last legs.

The Viking Pirate were far more ferocious than the pirates of the South Coast. If they weren't so few in number and so ruthless, they would probably be the true overlords.

In terms of combat prowess, the Viking Pirate are probably the most ferocious of all pirate groups!

"Um?"

Soren frowned and pondered for a moment, then ordered the Undrowned Undead to board the ship, while simultaneously controlling the Mutated Killer Whale to charge forward.

The navy in Arendelle is still somewhat useful.

With them there, the fleet in the Southern Island Nation couldn't react so quickly. These Warship could at least confuse the enemy's vision and temporarily divert their attention, making it easier for Soren to act.

On the sea.

Sharp bone spurs began to appear.

The Mutated Killer Whale's massive body surfaced and then rammed directly into the Viking Pirate ' warship.

Violent shaking.

Many Viking Pirate who planned to board the enemy Warship fell into the sea, only to be met with a gaping maw. Mutated Killer Whale opened its massive jaws and swallowed a group of people whole.

Five layers of incredibly sharp teeth sliced the enemy into pieces, leaving almost no survivors.

"Rise!"

Soren glanced at the surrounding pirate ships and immediately ordered, "Speaker of the Dead Cannon, prepare! Swivel Heavy Cannon, load ammunition!"

After so many battles.

The number of those Undrowned Undead did not increase significantly, but the number of Wraith Sea Monster working on the Ghost Ship increased considerably.

The Undead bound to the ship moved swiftly, and as a dark mast broke through the sea and rose, the Speaker of the Dead Cannon were loaded.

The waves parted all around!

Amidst the dense fog, the Speaker of the Dead broke through the waves, followed by a muffled barrage of cannon fire. The twenty-four Speaker of the Dead Cannon opened fire in quick succession, riddling the pirate ships on both sides with holes in an instant. At the same time, the Swivel Heavy Cannon at the bow fired continuously, piercing through the hull of a Dragon-headed Warship on the spot. Then, a large amount of Seawater rushed in, and the Dragon-headed Warship was almost sinking.

"What... what is this thing?!"

The Viking Pirate, who were fiercely attacking the Arendelle navy, were instantly stunned.

No one expected a warship to suddenly emerge from the seabed, and with such fierce firepower, it gave everyone no chance to react.

"A Ghost Ship...!"

A piercing scream rang out, and with the appearance of the Speaker of the Dead, some pierced through the mist to see its true form: a tattered hull, ghostly black Ghost Sail, and a dense aura of death spreading in all directions, sending a chill down one's spine upon approaching it. Twisted Wraith danced in the air, and countless wails could be faintly heard. Standing on the deck were Sea Monster Wraith, Sahuagin Undead grinning as they boarded the enemy Warship.

Ghost Ship!

Even among the most ferocious of the pirates, many of the Viking Pirate felt a chill run down their spines at this moment.

The Undead are not living people, after all.

The terrifying legends of Ghost Ship have long been known throughout the world. They may not be afraid of powerful living enemies, but fighting these hideous Undead is inevitably a bit chilling.

"Ocean Wraith attack!"

Through repeated battles, the Ghost Ship, the Speaker of the Dead, has also made significant improvements, but these improvements have not resulted in a qualitative change; they have only accumulated to a quantitative degree.

As Soren gave the order, some half-real, half-illusory Ocean Wraith rose up and lunged at the enemy with bared fangs and claws.

Then came another wave of screams.

at this time.

The Ghost Ship, the Speaker of the Dead, has significantly different attributes!

"Creature Name: Ghost Ship [Speaker of the Dead], [Mutant Undead Constructed Life]"

Creature type: [Animated Ghost Ship]

Creature Description: This is a Warship that sank after running aground hundreds of years ago. Awakening over countless years on the seabed, it was gradually assimilated by the Wraith and Wraith of the dead, transforming into a Ghost Ship wandering the ocean. Many legends surround it, eventually attracting the attention of devotees of the Goddess of the Sea. Legendary priest captured these Ghost Ship Ghost Ship and, under the Goddess of the Sea's Divine Power, secretly revitalized them into Low-Tier Undead Hit Points forms. It possesses simple consciousness and can regenerate like the Undead. This Ghost Ship can navigate any sea, and its power is feared throughout the ocean! (Note: Slaughter and death have caused a slight mutation in it.)

Captain: Soren.

Sailors: Undrowned Undead (72), Ocean Wraith (24), Ocean Ghost (108), Naga Banshee (12), Shark-man Undead (11), Deathspeaker Bound Spirit (1105) [Locked].

Equipment: Sunken Wail (ram), Speaker of the Dead Cannon (24), Ghost Sail (mutant), Swivel Heavy Cannon (2).

Basic skills: Summon Mist, Ghost Ship Trait, Deep Sea Navigation, Animate Life, Animate Rigging, Cursed Hull, Deathspeaker Trait.

Special Ability: [Soul Eater] Trait.

The change to the Speaker of the Dead occurred after the number of Deathspeaker Bound Spirit exceeded 1,000, and Soren only recently became aware of the difference.

In addition to its original Ghost Ship Trait, it has an additional special form: [Mutant Undead Constructed Life].

Meanwhile, the number of Undead sailors on the ship gradually increased due to the addition of the Deathspeaker Bound Spirit, with the most significant improvement seen in the Ocean Wraith and Ocean Ghost. Furthermore, the original ' Underwater Navigation ' ability has been transformed into ' Deep Sea Navigation,' the specific effects of which Soren is not yet clear, as he has not yet piloted the Speaker of the Dead to dive into very deep waters.

at last.

The Speaker of the Dead now has a special [Soul Eater] trait.

Even Soren didn't quite understand this trait, but with the appearance of this [Soul Eater] trait, the [Bound Spirit Trait that the Ghost Ship Speaker of the Dead originally possessed disappeared.

The old Speaker of the Dead had a [Bound Spirit Trait, but now only the [Soul Eater] trait remains.

Swarms of Ocean Ghost flew out.

These half-real, half-illusory Undead creatures are born with a 50% chance to Dodge physical attacks. Soren only managed to defeat the Spectre he encountered with Holy Water back then, and now these Viking Pirate will find it even more difficult to deal with them.

"What's that? Ghost Ship?!"

On the hull of Arendelle, the Bearded General naval admiral wiped the blood from his face, then stared ahead in astonishment. A Ghost Ship had suddenly appeared on the side of the Warship, seemingly helping them fight the Viking Pirate. This was incredibly bizarre, completely unexpected. However, he quickly seized the opportunity and began gathering his men to eliminate the enemy who had boarded the deck. A Ghost Ship probably couldn't change the course of the battle; the immediate priority was to find a way to escape before being surrounded. (To be continued~^~)
