All the ships of the Royal Navy aimed their guns at the Volcano, but the officers had not received the order to fire, and all the gunners were waiting.
Until the Volcano came in front of the Marquis's flagship, it was surrounded by the semi-arc of Royal Navy ships, aimed at by more than two hundred guns and other heavy weapons, and locked by a dozen senior knights with javelins.
Looking at the Volcano, the officers of the Royal Navy's East Fleet understood their commander's hesitation.
It was not difficult to attack the Volcano, but then, the captain of the Volcano, Furnace, could be resurrected more than 20 times, and they could not imagine how to deal with this ability beyond ordinary cognition. Moreover, the Volcano is a pirate ship that the East Fleet is very familiar with. This ship has helped the East Fleet as a decisive force in several naval battles.
The voice of the Furnace rang out on the sea: "Either fight! If not, get out of the way!"
The officers of the Royal Navy felt that the Furnace was too rampant, but after more than ten seconds, they still did not wait for the commander's attack order.
Marquis Nikita shouted: "Furnace! Hand over the werewolves who are wandering outside! Leave the goods of the Alchemy Council! I can let you go!"
Rudolf's sight fell on a werewolf next to Marquis Nikita, another level 7 werewolf.
Although werewolves are not very strong, they are numerous. The large number brings more opportunities to pass on genes, which is the survival strategy of many animals.
"I refuse! Then what?"
Hearing the answer from the furnace, Marquis Nikita couldn't help but tighten the hilt of the broadsword in his hand. As a level 6 knight, he was a little embarrassed.
"Furnace, you not only hide werewolves, but also escort the cargo ship of the Alchemy Council. The arms you escorted for the Alchemy Council will eventually become bullets fired at my Royal Navy and Army soldiers. Today, on behalf of the royal family, I will formally execute you!"
The words of Marquis Nikita were amplified by the power of the apostles, and the high-pitched voice was extremely penetrating on the sea, so that soldiers far away could also hear it.
Bullets fired at every soldier... Such words can arouse the fighting spirit of every soldier, and they are fighting for themselves.
In response, Rudolf took out a revolver. He swung the revolver to the left, and the bullets popped out with the sound of a crisp metal mechanism.
"Marquis Nikita, as everyone knows, I have fought side by side with the Royal Navy before. If your royal family had not wanted me, how could I escort the Alchemy Council?"
Marquis Nikita was full of confidence. He was not afraid of the furnace. The furnace could be resurrected many times. He even thought it was a good thing for him. He could slowly approach his limit in the long battle, and after breaking through the limit, he would be promoted to a level 7 knight.
When he became a level 7 knight, a small level 6 wizard would not be his opponent.
However, when he saw the bullet taken out by the furnace, his breathing suddenly stagnated.
It was a green bullet!
Generally speaking, bullets are made of copper, and copper shell bullets are the best bullets. Green bullets can only be seen under special circumstances.
The green bullet proves that it is a steel bullet!
The most famous steel bullet is the level 8 alchemy bullet of House, the speaker of the House of Lords of the Elba Alchemy Council!
The news is much faster than the speed of the ship. When the slow cargo ship was sailing, the news of the destruction of the Ancient Sea Wizards had already reached Seagull Port and the station of the Royal Navy's East Fleet.
During the destruction of the Ancient Sea Wizards, the combination of the furnace and the 8th-level alchemy bullet reminded the apostles of their fear of the Southern Cross Assassin.
Not only did Marquis Nikta sweat, but the werewolf, the messenger of Zushan, also felt that the sea breeze here was so damp and cold.
"Why do you still have precious 8th-level alchemy bullets?"
Faced with Nikta's question, Rudolf just smiled. He pressed the green bullet into the cartridge, then swung it to the right, and the cartridge returned to the ready position.
Gently pulling down the hammer, a crisp metallic sound rang out. This sound reached the ears of Marquis Nikta, and all his plans were disrupted.
If the fight really started, the furnace would smash his head in an instant. He would have no ability to react at all, let alone the chance to slowly approach the limit and then break through.
The sound of the furnace rang out:
"For the sake of our friendship in the past, I will give you a chance. As a wanted criminal of the royal family, I can still chat with you here this time, even if it is an unpleasant exchange.
I now officially inform you that this is our last chance to communicate. If I see the Royal Navy ships approaching my Volcano and Giant next time, I will not hold back.
After 30 seconds, if there are still Royal Navy officers or soldiers facing me head-on, this bullet will be fired."
Rudolf picked up the gun, gestured at the Marquis's head, and then put it down casually.
Michaelz on the side slowly took out a pocket watch, pressed the timer button on it, and started counting.
The sound of the sea breeze and waves was loud, but the officers of the Royal Navy seemed to hear the ticking of the second hand.
They came here because of Marquis Nikta. Marquis Nikta held the furnace, and the other ships went straight to the merchant ship. Then the battle would be won.
But what if Marquis Nikta died?
Level 8 Alchemy Bullet, the most proud alchemy weapon of Speaker House of the Alchemy Parliament, the level 8 alchemy power contained in it is not something a marquis can resist, especially since the furnace can easily send this bullet into Marquis Nikta's head.
Cold sweat fell from Marquis Nikita's head. If the one facing the furnace was a level 7 knight, one of the three dukes, then they might have fought back with thunderous means. However, Nikita was only a level 6 knight, and the level 8 alchemical bullet could really kill him easily.
A drop of cold sweat fell from Marquis Nikita's eyelashes and fell into his eyeballs that were about to pop out of his eye sockets. His fragile eyeballs were stimulated by the salty sweat drops, and he suddenly sobered up a little.
He whispered: "Retreat."
The voice of this order was really small. Fortunately, the flagship seemed to be frozen, and there was no sound at all. The staff officer clearly heard this mosquito-like order.
A sharp whistle sounded on the flagship, three short and one long whistle, which was the order for the Royal Navy to retreat.
Not only that, all the officers asked the soldiers on the armor to turn around immediately and never face the furnace. Since they had retreated, they had to follow the order of the furnace and turn their backs to him, otherwise it would be bad for the furnace to find an excuse to attack.
The ship began to turn around and move away quickly.
When retreating, other officers looked at Cadrick on the Earl's flagship.
Although Cadrick didn't say a word, everyone understood that the reason why the furnace didn't kill the Marquis of Niketa immediately was because of the deep friendship with Cadrick in the past.
Marquis Nikta would not admit this. He did not even think of explaining it to the werewolf messenger. He walked quickly towards the captain's room with a cold face.
The Volcano also headed towards the freighter. Cooper asked in a low voice: "When did the parliament give you the level 8 alchemical bullet? Are they so generous?"
"What level 8 alchemical bullet? When did I say this bullet was a level 8 alchemical bullet?"
"What? Fake?"
"Otherwise, the level 8 alchemical bullet is a special bullet for a special purpose, as if it was designed specifically to prevent me. I can't get such a bullet. The key is not whether I have it or not, but whether the other party believes that I have it."
"Shet, you are really..."
Cooper suddenly felt that Rudolph was a gambler, a brutal gambler.
