Chapter 572: The Tale of the Two Towers (II.)


"It's all my fault for damn it" Ivan, a young navigator, watched the "Harvest" capsize under siege by enemy ships in the lighthouse, and was so anxious that he pulled his hair and regretted it. \ However, it was too late to say anything, and Ivan finally remembered his mission, and adjusted the brightness of the searchlight to the maximum, and a straight beam pierced through the night to shine on the pirate flagship, providing the shore defense batteries with coordinates for revenge.

The shore artillery did not live up to his expectations, the high ground on both sides of the military port resounded with a rumbling roar, and on the sea near the "Canglong," fountains suddenly rose into the sky, and the waves stirred up the Canglong high and smashed it down, making it look precarious.

"Well done," Ivan waved his fist excitedly, "Harder gunner, brothers, smash the pirate ship and avenge our poor Harvest" At this time, a group of strange figures appeared on the open-air platform of the "Canglong" bridge, all wearing black cloaks, with the brim hanging low to cover half of their faces, holding a magic wand in their hands, and a billowing smoke sprayed out as soon as they pointed to the sky, quickly enveloping the Canglong, and then dispersed to all sides, and in an instant the sea area near the port was filled with thick smoke, and the black smoke miasma could not see the specific location of the enemy ship at all.

Ivan recognized it as a group of "seafaring warlocks", maybe mages who knows, anyway, in these days, whether it is a warship, a merchant ship or a pirate ship, these spellcasters are indispensable, and the shipowners spend a lot of money to hire them to sail with the ship, in order to use their spells to fight against all kinds of natural and man-made disasters.

Experienced navigators can predict weather changes, and when they have to navigate in bad weather, they can also use spells to disperse storms, and in naval battles they are even more valuable, and they can release plastic spells such as "fireball" to directly attack enemy warships, and retreat can release smoke to cover their own ships, and escape artillery locks, just like those nautical warlocks on the "Canglong" did at the moment, with just a small "pyrotechnic wand", the shore defense battery became blind.

The battery continued to fire, and the shells rained down on the sea, stirring up columns of water.

However, this blind man's elephant-like play was really ineffective, and it could not stop the pirate fleet from sneaking in the smoke from advancing towards the embankment.

Ivanchai also guessed that the pirate fleet would send sailors to land at the dock next, and the battle would become more brutal.

Just as he was in a hurry, a gust of wind blew off the smoke made by the navigator and exposed the mast of the Canglong.

"Haha, you can't run away now" Ivan was overjoyed, and quickly adjusted the angle of the searchlight, and threw a strong beam of light at the position where the Canglong was lurking, indicating the coordinates of the bombardment for the shore artillery.

Ivan was not worried about revealing his position, the guns had a limited angle of fire, neither too high nor too low, and the lighthouse he was in was located on the highest cliff in the harbor, and unless the pirate guns were tilted upwards at an angle of 60 degrees, it was impossible to fire at him.

However, his sense of security was soon crushed.

A white figure burst out of the smoke and circled in the night sky for two weeks, before locking onto the lighthouse and rushing towards it.

"That's" Ivan's eyes widened in astonishment, and what appeared in his field of vision was a white dragon, its hideous face quickly enlarged in front of his eyes, and he suddenly opened his mouth to spew out a white dragon's breath.

The dragon's breath turned into a storm that hit the lighthouse window, shattering all the glass in an instant, and the billowing cold air surged over, freezing Ivan's mind forever in this moment.

The cold wind raged in the small attic, blowing away everything that could be moved, and a thick layer of frost condensed on the walls.

Puff, the young navigator fell on his back on the floor, his body frozen.

Two pages of undried letterhead floated out of the broken window, and in the blink of an eye, they were blown away by the sea breeze.

Just as Ivan feared before his death, the Canglong, White Shark, and Tiger Shark ships approached the dock under the cover of thick smoke, and immediately opened the hatch, and the Sawa Fishman Marines jumped into the water in pairs on sea slugs, and quickly landed under the cover of smoke and naval guns, and went straight to the shore defense position to kill.

Once they are in control of the shore positions, they can turn their guns around and bombard the residential areas of Eagle Island, and clear the way for another task force to capture the Eagle Tower.

The Eagle Tower is not exactly a man-made tower, but a completely hollowed-out mountain.

The outer outline of the peak is well preserved, with dense shrubs and pine forests, and the interior has carved out huge caves like pits, which have been closed upwards to form hollow cones, and the inner rock walls have been carved out in circles of honeycomb-like eagles' nests, and the summit has been flattened to allow the eagles to receive plenty of light.

In order to provide an ideal home for the giant eagles, two ditches leading to the estuary were specially dug in the Eagle Tower, and seawater was introduced into the atrium to form a large pond covering an area of more than 200 acres, in order to lure fish and shrimp down the river into the atrium pond and bring delicious food to the young eagles.

There is a wide circular corridor between the atrium pond embankment and the base of the Eagle Tower, on which keepers can walk and inspect the eagle's nest.

In addition to the breeders, the Edric family also set up a guard post near the Eagle Tower, where a total of 100 guards are stationed all year round.

The alarm sounded in the harbor alarmed Captain Frannis, a high-ranking ranger, who was keenly aware that tonight was very abnormal, and it seemed that there was a dangerous atmosphere hanging over Eagle Island, which made him feel inexplicable palpitations.

"I have said a long time ago, what we need most on Eagle Island at present is not warships, nor to train more war eagles, but to build a lost lock to protect the whole island, and now the world has changed, and a city-state without a lost lock is like a courtyard with a wide open door, others can come and go as they want, and there is no guarantee of safety, how can people rest assured that they will settle on this island" "Brother, you've said this eight hundred times, the problem is that our Eagle Island is just a small rural place with no more than 10,000 residents, how can there be so much money to ask a legendary mage to build a puzzle lock" A female giant eagle with a fiery red ribbon around her neck followed behind Captain Flannis and spoke, her voice was as delicate as a girl, and she also walked in a straight line The actress of the opera house stepped on a straight line, if she transformed into a human form, she could also be called a beautiful girl who was graceful and moving
