Chapter 432
The terrible news brought by Wester made the pleasant atmosphere in the cabin freeze in an instant as everybody became stiff at the table . Annete, who originally thought that his sentence of Hellfire tribesmen chasing up to them was a joke, knocked a wine glass to the ground with a 'pang', causing the blood-like high-quality fruit wine to splash onto the floor .
"Alright, Wester . As the heir to the Tantorn Family, I give you the right to command the entire fleet!" The sound of the wine glass crashing snapped Fandersal back to reality . Solemnly, he said, "I'll leave everything to you, Chief Guard!"
"I won't disappoint you, Young Master Fandersal!" Wester nodded with a blank expression and turned to stride out of the cabin .
The instant he stood under the stars, he took a deep breath and shouted without wasting any time . "I, Wester Holster, the Tantorn Family's Chief Guard, hereby take over the right to command the defenses and direct all personnel under the order of Fandersal Tantorn! I hereby issue the first order and command all ships to put down the sails . Sailors, get away as far away from the ship's side and prepare for fire oil . Guards, come forward to defend!"
The sound of the waves rolling deafening to the ear, shattering the entire sky, caused the unruly turmoil on the deck to change significantly .
Watching the sails being put down one by one from afar, Wester called out to the sailors who retreated to the cabin and strode up to his deputy guarding by the ship's side . Pulling out the machete on his waist, he blocked a javelin flying towards him and shouted loudly, "Alans, is the artillery ready?"
"The Hellfire ships are too close to us . We can no longer use artillery!" The Tantorn Family's deputy chief guard, who had a handsome face as beautiful as a girl, brandished a large tower shield that was exactly the opposite of his figure and repliee in a deep voice . "The guards watching the night in the watchtower are really too careless!"
"It can't be helped! It's near the New Year now so many trading companies sail in the coastal water to Seniakha to participate in the exhibition expo with their ships linked together by iron chains and some don't even have guards following them . It's already very good that we can maintain such vigilance," Wester said in a grave expression and exonerated himself from the responsibility . Then, he lowered his head and looked at the three short and grotesque Hellfire ships parked in the distant sea surface before remarking conceitedly in a cold voice, "To think that they actually dare to attack our fleet with just these few small ships? These uncivilized barbarians will always be barbarians . I don't believe that their ship decks are immersed in fire-resistant clay . After all the fire oil is ready, light up a fire and burn all these barbarians into ashes . "
Alans, who was by the side, did not oppose his superior's confidence but said while hiding behind the tower shield, "Sir, these Hellfire people traversed across the ocean to attack us on the mainland, and now they're only attacking using javelins . I suspect they must have some spiritual monsters on their ships and are preparing for powerful spells . Also, their ships don't even have any mast! It looks like something is wrong…"
Before he could finish his words, he suddenly saw a blue light emitting from the short Hellfire ships .
A blurry figure suddenly leapt up high in the blue light . Its body elongated and widened under the moonlight, its feet were stuck together as it turned into a fish tail before falling back into the ocean . Wiggling its body, it swam towards one of the merchant ships in the fleet . At the place where it passed by, the seawater gradually became murky and sticky, before slowly getting stuck together, turning into a 'mud path' .
Then, a spacious secret door suddenly opened on the decks of the three Hellfire ships . Countless native warriors riding giant spiders armed with sharp spears charged out continuously from the lower cabin and competed with each other, commanding their mounts to run and jump up to the mud path before charging towards the mainlanders' ships .
"The Hellfire people is led by a spiritual monster and has made a path at sea! Watch out, they're rushing towards us riding on, on spiders! Watch out! Everyone, watch out…"
"Dear God! These Hellfire people are actually using big long-haired spiders as their mounts . They're the true demons! We can't let those spiders get on the ship! Keep them under the ship! The fire oil! Is the fire oil not ready yet…?"
"Sir Wester, the guards on the Blue Crown can't stop the attack of so many Hellfire warriors all by themselves! We need reinforcements! We need reinforcements…" Countless panicking cries could be heard resonating from the merchant ship targeted by the Hellfire 'knights' . As more and more giant spiders climbed onto the sea carrying their native warriors with great difficulty, the cries of panic was slowly replaced with blood curdling screams .
