"Buhao! Things are starting to get tough, retreat quickly, brothers!"
One pirate was very cunning. When he found something was wrong, he immediately called on his brothers to retreat, and then he rushed back to the Golden Deer.
The other pirates were not to be outdone, and they ran towards their own ships with all their might as if they were running a 100-meter race.
The more showy ones even did a sliding tackle.
As soon as he mobilized his treasure, he found that there was no one left on the ship, and Blackbeard was standing there in a daze.
A slightly cool sea breeze blew by, making the place seem a little desolate.
"Gah...gah...gah..."
A seabird happened to pass by and made a strange sound, as if it was mocking the two-meter-tall strong man.
Before Blackbeard could come to his senses, the rune shells that the pirates had brought over finally took effect.
Only a series of explosions were heard, and Blackbeard's ship was surrounded by large balls of flames.
Deck, cabin, side of the ship...
I don’t know how the pirates set the fire, but you can see flames almost everywhere.
Just when Blackbeard was tired of the cooperation between Euryale and the pirates.
The battle between the two Berserkers was the first to bear fruit.
Xiao Niu kept in mind the words that Lin Qi repeated before the battle.
He immediately unleashed all his strength, and with his A++ level of strength, he chased and attacked Eric relentlessly, not giving him any chance to fight back.
"I won't let you use your Noble Phantasm!"
Asterios looked fierce, raised his two axes and smashed them at Eric.
The terrifying strength made even Eric, a berserker with a strong board, have to grit his teeth and barely hold on.
Xiao Niu's treasure is not suitable for fighting, so the battle strategy Lin Qi prepared for Xiao Niu is also very simple, just like this, using continuous fierce attacks to prevent the opponent from using the treasure.
It just so happens that Maverick's hand-to-hand combat strength is based on the panel, and in the entire singularity, perhaps only Hercules has the possibility of completely crushing him.
And because Blackbeard was entangled by the pirates, Euryale, who was the most relaxed, could even support Maverick from time to time.
So it took almost no effort.
Eric was ultimately unable to block Asterios' final double-axe attack and was severely hit in the chest.
The result of the attack that almost cut him in half was self-evident.
The blood was flowing and golden spirits were floating around.
Eric - Exit!

Chapter 56: Untitled.
Blackbeard's Queen Anne's Revenge's faint light was clearly weakened due to Eric's departure.
Lin Qi knew that this was exactly the same as in the game, the level of Blackbeard's Noble Phantasm had been lowered!
Everything went as they planned, and Bloodaxe King Eric became the first to leave Blackbeard's side.
But Lin Qi did not take it lightly. Instead, he faced Hector with a more serious attitude.
Knowing what kind of Dio Hector was, he understood that the more critical the moment, the more he could not relax and the less he could give Hector the opportunity to cause trouble.
On the other side of the battlefield, Drake also fully demonstrated the strength that a Holy Grail holder should have.
He is incredibly agile.
Under the joint attack of Anne and Mary, they kept rushing around on the boat, and they actually felt like they were at ease.
"Well, isn't that a bit foul?"
Anne narrowly dodged a shell and rubbed her temple in distress.
"Really? Isn't this style of play quite normal?"
Drake dispersed the cannons that were flashing golden light beside him and said in feigned confusion.
But the curve of her eyebrows and mouth corners revealed her true thoughts.
"It's annoying to pull out a cannon anytime, anywhere..."
Mary said expressionlessly.
During the time the two of them were fighting with Drake, she rushed in front of Drake more than once, and was forced back more than once by the cannons that appeared when Drake turned around.
To be honest, it's a bit frustrating.
"Yes, yes. And can the Holy Grail really improve a person so much? Obviously, our captain did not change much before and after obtaining the Holy Grail."
Anne nodded repeatedly in agreement, with a hint of disdain for Blackbeard in her tone.
"Maybe it's because my Holy Grail is male and his is female?"
Derek raised an eyebrow and said jokingly.
Anne & Mary: "..."
No one tells you your jokes are actually boring?
While the two sides were talking, they simultaneously saw the pirates running back from Blackbeard's ship in a panic.
Anne and Mary were a little surprised to see this.
But before the two men could figure out what was happening, they heard a series of explosions coming from their own boat.
A slightly warm breeze blew past, accompanied by flames rising into the sky, and the Queen Anne's Revenge was already engulfed in a sea of fire.
Blessings are unparalleled, and misfortunes do not come singly.
The two were also surprised to find that Eric was also being defeated by the combined attack of Maverick and Euryale, and was chopped in half by Asterios' axe almost at the same time as the explosion. It was hard not to notice the bloody scene.
It seemed that in the blink of an eye, the originally good situation collapsed in an instant.
Even the battle-hardened duo could not help but be greatly shocked.
"Although we are surprised, we can't forget to fight, right?"
Knowing that everything was as planned, Drake certainly did not get distracted by this. He took advantage of the moment when the two people's attention was distracted and decisively launched a sneak attack.
When the two turned their attention back, they saw that Drake had set up the cannon again without them noticing.
The two muskets in his hands were also pointed at them.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
"boom!"
This time, Drake did not include both of them in his attack range, but only attacked Annie.
The reason was very simple. After fighting back and forth for a while, Drake could see that Anne's movements were obviously slower than Mary's.
And slower movements mean easier to hit!
Bullets were used to block Anne's escape route, while cannons were used to deliver the killing blow.
The precise attack had already taken Annie's retreat into account.
Mary gritted her teeth when she realized Drake's intention. She paused for a moment and rushed towards Annie.
Anne blocked several bullets with her own musket, but her movements were slowed down.
Just as the shell was about to hit her face, Mary suddenly jumped in front of Anne and blocked the shell's path with the scimitar in her hand.
"Well……"
A huge force came from the knife, making it difficult for Mary's weak muscles to bear.
If it was just an ordinary ship-mounted artillery, even if it used the Rune shells made by Lin Qi, Mary would not feel too strenuous.
But on the contrary, this entire set of equipment was made by Drake with the help of the Holy Grail.
Even though it looks not much different from ordinary artillery, its power and speed are incomparable.
Knowing this, Mary took advantage of the situation to relieve the force, allowing the cannonball to brush against the scimitar in her hand, thereby changing the direction of the cannonball.
The shell shot out and hit Blackbeard's mast.
The two people who finally dealt with the attack cast a cold look at Drake.
But Drake whistled at them with a relaxed look on his face and pointed behind them with his chin.
The two men, who had discovered that the battlefield had become much quieter, seemed to realize something and their bodies suddenly stiffened.
Slowly turned his head and looked behind him.
The first thing that caught their eye was the huge man Asterios, and in the distance they could see Euryale aiming her bow at them.
Finally, there were the pirates who surrounded them.
"It looks like our pirate career is coming to an end..."
Seeing this, Anne was slightly moved.
“It’s terrible. I’m not happy.”
Mary's eyelids drooped.

Chapter 57 Hector's betrayal.
Ever since Eric left the field first, Blackbeard's side could be said to have been defeated.
According to the initial combat strategy, Anne and Mary were inevitably forced to withdraw from the scene amidst the concentrated fire.
At this moment, only Blackbeard and Hector were left on Blackbeard's side.
Although the dawn of victory was just around the corner, Lin Qi did not feel any joy in his heart.
Because it's too quiet -
Hector was too "quiet" in his battle with himself.
Although the intensity of the battle is not much different from before.
But would an old pervert like Hector really be so honest as to do nothing?
Even if Achilles believed in such things, Lin Qi would not believe in such things.
If Lin Qi wants to believe that Hector is an honest man, the only way is for the sun to rise from the west.
The uneasiness in his heart was getting worse and worse, and Lin Qi tried to see something from the face of the uncle in front of him.
But all I could see was a calm face.
It was like he didn't care about the current battle situation at all.
Lin Qi's thinking began to speed up. He resisted Hector's attack while thinking hard.
If I were in Hector's position, what would I do?
Lin Qi tried to put himself in Hector's shoes to understand his thoughts.
Countless thoughts flashed through my mind one by one, like looking at an intricate kaleidoscope, gorgeous but I could never grasp the key points.
Like a flash of inspiration.
In the corner of his sight, Lin Qi saw Blackbeard cursing in the midst of flames and smoke.
Finally, Lin Qi understood.
"Quick! Keep an eye on Blackbeard and don't let Hector get close to him!"
There was finally a change on Hector's calm face, a smile of triumph.
"Oh, little brother, I have to admit that you are really difficult to deal with. You even saw through my little tricks."
