Without a moment of hesitation, the Blood Spirit warriors immediately controlled their cannons and launched an attack.
The warships fired their cannons, smashing into the Bauhinia Alliance fleet like a storm.
The planks of the ships were damaged, masts were broken, and some ships started sinking. White smoke rose, and it was uncertain how many soldiers of the Bauhinia Alliance were killed or injured by the cannonballs.
Even the flagship came under attack.
A cannonball landed on the side of the ship, narrowly missing the officer’s arm but killing four or five soldiers.
“Cough…,” the officer stood up with the help of his soldiers, raising his head with anger filling his eyes.
A sense of shame and the realization of their narrow escape surged within him, followed by an uncontrollable rage.
How dare these natives of the Mystic Realm initiate an attack on them?
This was unacceptable!
An endless fury consumed his rationality.
“Attack Krieg’s ships with all our might! Give them a strong counterattack!!”
After a brief delay, all the ships of the Bauhinia Alliance turned their cannons and unleashed their firepower.
The players who had managed to reach a safe position turned around upon hearing the commotion behind them, witnessing the intense exchange of fire between the two sides.
They breathed a sigh of relief, halting their escape and casually eating snacks.
A grand spectacle unfolded as nearly a hundred warships exchanged fire, a scene rarely seen in ordinary circumstances.
“Blow up those Krieg’s ships! Those damn Blood Spirit warriors chased us like rabid dogs. They nearly scared me to death. It would be great if we could wipe them all out!”
“The Bauhinia Alliance should die as well. They treated us as human shields and even wanted to extort toll fees from us. So greedy!”
“Kill them! Kill them! It would be best if both sides suffer heavy losses!”
The playful players began cheering, displaying their carefree nature.
In the intense exchange of fire, the Bauhinia Alliance had a slight advantage. In order to prevent the players from escaping, they had positioned themselves in advance, aligning one side of their ships with the Mystic Realm’s gate, allowing half of their cannons to fire.
On the other hand, the Krieg’s ships, despite their greater numbers, could only use a few cannons at the bow, resulting in a significant firepower disadvantage.
After a round of intense exchange, both fleets suddenly ceased their bombardment.
“Quickly go to the cabin and move the shells! Shoot these mystic realm natives to death!” The officer from the Bauhinia Alliance said sternly.
“Quickly replenish your ammunition and pledge your loyalty to Lord Krieg! “The Blood Spirit soldiers shouted.
The cannonballs on both sides were almost exhausted. The barrels were hot and red, and they stopped working.
For a moment, the battlefield fell into a strange silence.
After a few waves of attacks, both sides suffered losses.
The Bauhinia Alliance had lost about six or seven warships, while Krieg’s side had lost more than ten.
Pieces of the ship were floating on the surface of the sea, and the soldiers who fell into the water were shouting for help.
The shattered human body parts and fresh blood attracted sharks, their fierce dorsal fins looming above the water surface.
The immense destructive power of war was unquestionably evident at this moment.
Meanwhile, the flagship carrying Krieg slowly emerged from the gate of the Mystic Realm.
With its massive hull, numerous cannons, and towering masts.
Upon seeing this, the Blood Spirit soldiers cheered.
On the ship, Krieg looked around at the completely different environment, equally astonished.
So, there truly existed an incredibly vast main world outside, much larger than the Blood Sea they inhabited.
What a beautiful world it was…
Krieg quickly regained her composure and looked at the enemies in the distance.
She could already sense that without the protection of the Blood Sea and the Golden Tree, the state of the Blood Spirit warriors was slowly declining. This battle needed to be swift and decisive!
With this thought in mind, she didn’t waste any more time and swiftly issued the orders for the operation.
The flag signal on the flagship instantly changed.
“Rest of the ships, charge forward! Initiate boarding battles!”
The command was conveyed, and nearly forty Krieg’s ships began their charge.
Upon seeing this scene, the Violet Alliance officers immediately gathered. Though they were unaware of what was happening, the Krieg soldiers seemed to have resurrected and become even more powerful.
If it was just a matter of exchanging cannon fire, they wouldn’t be afraid. But if it turned into boarding battles, they would be far from a match.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, the charging Krieg’s ships were bombarded by a barrage of cannonballs from the side.
Curiously, the Bauhinia Alliance officers followed the trajectory of the cannonballs to see who was assisting them.
A fleet consisting of over twenty ships was rapidly approaching the battlefield.
Their ships were adorned with peculiar decorations, looking flamboyant and flashy.
Some ships carried cannons, some had crossbow machines, and others had nothing at all.
However, what they all had in common was the black skull and crossbones sails fluttering in the sea breeze.
It was the Black Skull Pirate Crew!
The crowd quickly understood what was happening.
Upon learning that this Mystic Realm produced a large quantity of crystals, these pirates also wanted to get a share of the spoils!
Upon witnessing this scene, a hint of joy appeared on the faces of the Bauhinia Alliance officers.
Although these Black Skull pirates had a mishmash of ships, if they could join the fight, they could at least attract some firepower.
If those Glory Lords also attacked the Krieg’s ships, there was a possibility of winning this battle.
The players also became excited, their faces expressing a desire for chaos.
With the addition of these pirates, there were now three factions on the battlefield: the Bauhinia Alliance, Krieg, and the Black Skull Pirate Crew, all engaging in mutual attacks.
The entire sea area turned into a chaotic mess!
