"You mean the Salt Spray Pirates? That elusive pirate group doesn't belong to any camp. During the period of the temporary truce between the Seven Saints and the Mulhollan, the entire western Mediterranean is their hunting ground!"

The other crew members, noticing that the captain had also joined in the chat, asked him for his opinion.

Andre didn't speak, and was silent for a while thoughtfully, looking at a strong bald man: "Boris, what do you think?"

This strong man named Boris is a Slav.He was originally a guard of a Moscow nobleman, but was captured in a battle with the Great Horde, became a white slave, and was sold as an oarsman on a galley of the Ottoman Navy.

In a naval battle defending Chios Island, Andrew captured the Ottoman Navy's galley and rescued Boris.

Since then, Boris has been by Andre's side. After dozens of battles, he has now become the captain of the charge on the ship, responsible for taking the lead in jumping gang battles, entering enemy ships, and beheading generals to capture the flag.

Although Boris looks strong and wild, he is actually careful and cautious. Andre attaches great importance to his suggestions when discussing various things.

Boris said in a strong Italian language: "We haven't been out to sea for a long time. What happened to those dead souls at sea? I haven't seen them with my own eyes. I only heard rumors. I can't confirm them at all. But there are some side information, or It can be used as a reference."

"What side information? Don't be like a glutton choking on food, unable to hold back a word for a long time, Boris, speak up!"

Under the rude urging of his companion, Boris continued: "I heard from the wine merchants who travel between Ajaccio and Marseille that Provence is now on alert to defend against possible attacks from the sea. This is what the Duke of Anjou said according to Laman The decision made based on the advice of Marquis Shi and the Purification Court."

At this time, Andre said: "It's not just Provence. Savoy, Genoa, Lucca, Florence, Siena, the Pope. From the Côte d'Azur to the Ligurian Sea, and then to the Tyrrhenian Sea, All principalities and republics have begun to strengthen coastal defenses. This is by no means accidental, and it is impossible to defend against Barbary pirates. Therefore, we must keep our spirits up and act cautiously when we go to sea."

As soon as he finished speaking, a mocking voice came from the wine table not far away: "As expected of the cowards of the Doria family. Those fools curled up on the land always have an inexplicable fear of the sea because of their ignorance. So when I heard some rumors, I was so scared that I called up the army and retreated to the castle. I didn’t expect you to be so stupid as to believe those rumors, haha!”

A man wearing a bright red jacket trimmed with gold, walked over under the glaring gaze of everyone on the Sword of Nassau.

"Mr. Filippo Spinola, good evening. It seems that the sea water in Liguria has not been able to wash your stinky mouth clean, I am sorry." Andrea laughed.

The Spinola family is a famous family in the Republic of Genoa. It has produced many governors and has a very bad relationship with the Doria family, which is also a famous family.

Filippo is also a sea mercenary serving the Republic and owns a carrack galleon under his command.

The ship is bigger than Andre, the gun is stronger than Andre, and he has more men than Andre. Filippo, who thinks he is stronger than the opponent, often comes to provoke Andre during the time when he is moored in Ajaccio.

After being ridiculed by Andre, Filippo showed an angry look on his face.He knew that he was not the opponent's opponent when it came to lip service, so he didn't fight back, but insisted on the tactic of "you say yours, I say mine".

"Andre, cowardly Andre. You don't even dare to face a few undead monsters from other worlds. Do you think you are qualified to be the head of the Doria family, and then compete with me for the position of Governor of the Republic? ?”

"Mr. Filippo, since you are so confident, why don't you drive your beloved Vigilance out to sea to destroy that mysterious undead castle?" Andre spread his hands.

The other crew members saw that the captain was fighting, and they all stared at Filippo with half-smiles.It would be great if the other party was really stupid enough to go to sea to find the undead castle on the sea, and then die unexpectedly.

"Hehe, do you also believe in such nonsense as the Undead Castle?" Filippo raised his head proudly, "But don't worry. Although I don't believe those rumors, I will also sail out to sea to destroy those undead. When the time comes , I will become the hero who saved the entire western Mediterranean!"

As soon as the voice fell, the door of the brothel was knocked open with a "bang", and someone ran in in a panic, shouting: "The enemy! The enemy has surrounded the port!"

"Enemies? What enemies?"

"Where did it come from?"

"How many?"

"How many boats?"

There were many sailors spending time in the brothel, and everyone got up one after another, asking questions in one go.

"I can't tell. All in all, a lot, and it's scary!"

Seeing that the person who reported the letter was pale and incoherent with fright, the sailors simply grabbed their weapons and left the brothel, ready to check the situation with their own eyes.

Andre's group also left with the crowd, ran to a high ground, looked towards the port, and then took a breath.

"Seven Saints!"

More than thirty ships surrounded the entire port of Ajaccio, most of them were Mulholland-style triangular sail warships, flying the Xingyue flag.There are also several Carak galleons that do not fly any flags to indicate their religious beliefs.

The flames flickered on these ships, and there were figures running around. Although the scale was huge, it was still within the scope of human understanding.

But in the sea area farther away, there is a terrifying fleet beyond imagination.

At the very center of this fleet is a gloomy castle built of pitch-black rocks. Dozens of dilapidated ships were pieced together by unknown forces to form the base of the castle. From a distance, it looks like A dark and terrifying sailing graveyard.

From time to time, there was a faint blue light in the castle, and the sound of howling ghosts and wolves drifted into the city of Ajaccio along the sea wind, making the residents of the city terrified.

Around this castle, there are more than a dozen dilapidated ships exuding the breath of the dead.These sails are rotten, and the hulls are damaged everywhere. On the deck covered by seaweed and various shells, there are walking zombies everywhere, like ghosts walking at night.

These ghost ships, which seem to fall apart when touched, exude a strong oppressive force on the living, making people feel fearful when they look at them.

boom!

With the sound of a cannon, this joint fleet, composed of the living and the dead, launched an attack on the city of Ajaccio.

The first to fire was the human warship.

The artillery equipped on warships in this era is not powerful and the number is not large. They are not the decisive force in naval battles. The mainstream combat method is melee combat.

Therefore, the artillery bombardment of the warship on the shore cannot cause too much substantial damage.

However, the resulting confusion cannot be ignored.

Screaming, crying, cursing...

Looking at the crowd in chaos caused by the shelling, the crew of Nassau Sword all looked at Captain Andre.

Andre didn't hesitate for too long, and ordered decisively: "Gather all the brothers who came to the shore to have fun tonight, and go back to the boat!"

"Captain, are we going to fight?"

"No, we're going to run!" Andre said decisively.

This attacking fleet is huge, and even if all the ships moored in the port of Ajaccio are organized, there is no way to match it.Moreover, the opponent is a joint fleet composed of undead and humans, and its origin is mysterious, and its own side does not know the details at all.There is no way to fight this battle.

Braving the artillery fire roaring overhead, Andre and his party ran wildly all the way, and finally arrived at the Sword of Nassau moored at the port.

At this time, the enemy's shelling had ended, and small boats were lowered from the ship to start landing operations.

"The enemy still has 10 minutes to arrive at the port, and we still have time! Everyone hurry up and hoist the sails, the southeast wind is tonight, which is good for us!" Andre encouraged morale loudly.

But what happened next immediately slapped Andre in the face.

I saw hundreds of ghosts suddenly flying out of the black castle.They have a charming body and pretty face like a young girl, and they sang soul-stirring songs all the way, sweeping straight from the sea.

And on more than a dozen ghost ships, zombie sailors with various weapons also jumped into the sea with a plop.

There is also a giant crustacean that exudes a rotten breath, and it is also released from the cage.

"That's the Siren Banshee! Prepare to fight!" Andre shouted, "Remember, to deal with this kind of spirit undead, pure salt must be smeared on the weapon to cause effective damage!"

Under the captain's order, the sailors of the Sword of Nassau were divided into two, and one part continued to operate the rigging and prepare to sail.The other part took out weapons such as scimitars, long swords, crossbows, hand cannons, etc., and started fighting with the banshee who was rushing at high speed.

The captain commanded well, the crew fought hard, and the Sword of Nassau united as one, and finally became the first ship to set sail in the port of Ajaccio under the siege of the undead.

With Andre at the helm himself, the Sword of Nassau sailed through the encirclement with unimaginable dexterity under the southeast wind and sailed to the open sea.

Behind them, the second to set sail was Filippo's Wary.

However, this larger and more cumbersome carrack sailing ship was blocked by two enemy ships before sailing far.Soon, the hull was covered with zombie pirates, crumbling.

In the night wind, Filippo could not dare to roar and scream.

Chapter 350 Six Vampire's Ambition

The Sword of Nassau rushed out of the siege of human enemies, and after sailing out of the harbor, the front opened up suddenly.So even in the face of the more terrifying Undead Fleet and the black castle, the crew is full of confidence.

"Hold on firmly, full left rudder!" Andre held the rudder tightly, his muscles tensed, and he stared at the front.

The dexterous Sword of Nassau left a white arc-shaped track on the sea, passing by an undead warship on the outermost edge on the left, bypassing the enemy's line without any risk.

The distance between the two sides was so close that the sailors could even see the fat maggots crawling in and out of the corrupted bodies of the undead.

Those dilapidated undead battleships reacted slowly, and it was too late to take countermeasures, so they were left far behind.

Seeing the enemies in the rear being thrown further and further away, the sailors cheered in victory.

"Long live! Long live Andrea Doria!"

"No matter how powerful the enemy is, we can escape."

"Captain, I love you, I really want to introduce my mother to you!"

Amidst the vulgar laughter, Andre also breathed a sigh of relief.He handed over the rudder to the chief mate, then walked to the stern, set up a pergola, and observed the situation behind.

In the distant city of Ajaccio, there were faint and shrill screams.In the pitch-black sky above, an eerie blue ominous light glowed, casting the entire city under the shadow of death.

After this terrible night, it is unknown how many of Ajaccio's tens of thousands of residents will survive.

The undead are not human pirates, and they will not leave after satisfying their desire to plunder and kill.The hatred of the dead towards the living is endless...

As a Genoese, André's heart was heavy when he saw his homeland ravaged by alien monsters.Although this time he had to escape because of the situation, it didn't mean he didn't want to take revenge.

What he can do at this time is to collect more first-hand information through his own eyes, and make his own contribution to avenge stronger forces organized by various countries in the future.

"Eye of the Sea Eagle!" Andre chanted the name of power in a low voice, his eyes were instantly strengthened by magic power, and his eyesight increased dozens of times.

He is a special physics professional called "Envoy of Nature". Although he cannot use spells, he can borrow the abilities of various creatures to strengthen himself.

After opening the Eye of the Sea Eagle, Andre was able to clearly see the situation on the black castle.

There are undead soldiers patrolling all over the city wall.These undead were tall, with thick black full-body armor painted with golden patterns, and full-face helmets with bat-wing-shaped helmet wings on both sides, exuding a powerful aura from top to bottom.

"Judging from the organizational strength shown by these undead, there must be an undead lord commanding them. These black-armored guards must be the elite troops of the undead lord."

Andre continued to observe, turning his gaze to the high tower in the center of the castle.

Then, he saw the owner of the castle.

It was a man wearing a red captain's cap and a golden battle armor, with the appearance of a human aristocrat.It's just that his purple skin and blood-red eyes reveal his race-vampire.

There is a huge metal instrument placed on the tower. Although it is rusty, it reveals an inexplicable sense of oppression.The vampire lord walked around the instrument twice, then began to chant a spell to activate it.

"Human, do you really think you can escape? Remember my name, Earl Noctis, this is the one who will send you to hell!"

A gloomy and hoarse voice suddenly came from Andre's ear, which made his hair stand on end in shock, and he almost couldn't stand still.

The vampire lord glanced in Andre's direction, and with a playful smile like a mouse playing with a cat, he manipulated the huge cylinder on the metal instrument and aimed at the Sword of Nassau that was drifting away.

"Abandon the ship! Abandon the ship! Get on the boat!" Andre felt a strong crisis, and he ran towards the bow while roaring.

The others didn't know what happened until they looked in the direction the captain pointed: at the highest point of the black castle, there was a blue light symbolizing death, gathering brighter and brighter, and getting bigger and bigger.

hum-

Accompanied by the trembling sound of high-concentration magic particles rubbing against the air, a beam of blue light shot out from the castle and hit the Sword of Nassau instantly.

The more than 30-meter-long hull disintegrated in an instant, and the crew members turned into nothingness in the blue light. Andre watched everything he relied on and was proud of quickly disappear under the force of destruction.

……

"Poor earth bug." The vampire lord, who called himself Earl Noctis, glanced contemptuously at the wreckage on the sea in the distance, and left the tower.
