BXBX NOVEL Chapter 509: 295
The Black Night Raven laughed awkwardly, “How would that happen, how would it? How could such a personage as the Dragon Clan Leader hear a casual oath from me?”
“Hehe…” Negris was about to say something when a white firework shot up from the direction of the dock and exploded with a bang.
Everyone looked towards the explosion, Luther asked in confusion, “Why fire white fireworks? It’s broad daylight, we can’t even see what it is.”
The Black Night Raven’s face turned grim, and he responded urgently, “That’s the signal of the Canglong Pirate Group, the Canglong Pirates are here.”
The police station was situated on an elevation. Looking down from the surrounding wall, the dock was in full view. Four black sails had appeared outside the harbor, each flying a white sail, charge into the port relentlessly.
One of them drew parallel to the Black Night Raven’s ship, a bunch of agile pirates suddenly jumped aboard. The firework’s trails pointed to the Black Night Raven’s ship, obviously shot by the pirates who had just boarded.
Perhaps it was a signal of safety. On the second Canglong pirate ship, a wizard flew up, standing mid-air with hands behind his back as if held by an invisible hand, sliding forward in a rather grandiose manner.
The sight of the wizard made the Black Night Raven even darker, “A Level 8 Magician! Riley of the Wind Canglong, good heavens, why would he come in person? He definitely didn’t come after me. Yes, I heard he goes ashore every month to find female slaves for relaxation, and today might just be his day ashore.”
“My lords, if I am captured by him, please please kill me first, don’t let me fall into his hands. It’s rumored that he favors women my age the most, playing with them in different ways, tossing them into slave camps after he’s done, and throwing them into the sea to feed the fish when he finally loses interest.”
“Oh Lord, I’m somewhat of an infamous female pirate, I’m sure I would be very popular. No, no, I beg you, end me first.”
Whether it was the horrendous acts committed by Riley or some sort of post-traumatic stress disorder from the Black Night Raven’s past experiences that caused her to lose control, her panic cries confused Negris and Luther.
Merely a Level 8 Magician, why was she so panicked as if she had never seen the world? Despite having witnessed Ange block cannonballs with his bare hands, she was still frightened by a Level 8 Magician.
But this was normal, just as telling some commoners about a divine curse might not faze them, but inform them they have been bitten by a snake, they would probably turn pale in fear because they knew what could happen from a snake bite.
The Black Night Raven was brought here in a conspicuous manner, and the Level 8 Magician was coming straight at them. He floated in the air with his hands behind his back, his robe billowing, showcasing his proficiency with Wind Magic.
Floating over the police station, he immediately saw Ange and his group and the Black Night Raven. When his gaze fell on the Black Night Raven, a hint of lust flickered in his eyes:
“Oh? Isn’t this Captain Raven? What happened to your ship?…Oh, and aren’t you a cute little girl, wanna come play with uncle…”
Before he finished speaking to the Black Night Raven, his attention was diverted to Little Angel. And before he could finish his sentence, Little Angel spread her wings and flashed Holy Light.
A pillar of light instantly charred Riley and his words into carbon.
The Black Night Raven stared eyes wide, almost popping out of their sockets: “This… this… you… you…”
Lightning yawned: “So boring. When will Brooks get here? I’m dying of boredom.”
Luther, arms crossed, nodded in agreement, “Indeed, these people are too weak, none of them are worthy adversaries for the draw of my Dragon Pattern Steel Core Mithril Inlay Magic Rune Covered Earth Forged Gemstone Enhanced Piercing Enchantment Two-Handed Sword.”
“A… A… A talking horse?!” the Black Night Raven stuttered out, tongue-tied.
Lightning spared her a glance, but chose not to retort, too lazy to entertain her.
One after another, red fireworks shot into the sky. Like ants whose nest had been disrupted, the Canglong Pirates on all four ships rose into action. One of the three leaders of the pirate group, the Level 8 Magician Riley, was slain spectacularly under everyone’s watch. If they don’t react to this, the Canglong Pirate Group might as well quit being pirates.
Each of the four ships pushed out eight magic crystal cannons, a total of 32 magic crystal cannons, all of them aiming at the police station situated halfway up the hill.
“Ah, it’s becoming a bit of a challenge. Thirst for fresh blood, my Dragon Pattern Steel… Core Sword!” Sensing the gaze of others, Luther thoughtfully swallowed the rest of the name.
He drew out his longsword with a clang, and a radiant beam extended from the blade, flickering inconsistently.
The Black Night Raven, obviously a person who knew her stuff, started shivering again, “A… high… high-level… high-level Sword Saint!”
Damn, the errand boy turned out to be a high-level Sword Saint! Who the hell are these people?
Just as everyone was preparing to charge out and destroy the ships, a gold figure descended from the sky, diving straight at the four pirate ships, Dragon Breath sweeping across each of them.
In the blink of an eye, all four ships were swallowed up by the Dragon Breath and burst into flames. Agonizing screams filled the deck, pirates who had been engulfed by the Dragon Breath jumped into the sea like dumplings being thrown into a pot.
Unfortunately, even if they jumped into the sea, the Dragon Breath wouldn’t extinguish. Those touched by the Breath would turn into skeletons and sink to the bottom of the sea.
As the surrounding pirate ships went up in flames, the golden dragon turned around and flew back towards the police station.
“A… A… A dragon! Aren’t you guys running?” the Black Night Raven started to shiver again.
Not only did they not run, Luther started jumping and cursing, “You shameless brute, Brooks! They were my targets!”
“Brooks… Brooks? The Dragon Clan Leader?” The Black Night Raven suddenly recalled the name, somehow it sounded familiar to her. Then at the sight of a gold dragon, she instantly remembered the legend.
Brooks landed in front of the police station and said to everyone, “Sorry to keep you waiting, get on, I’ll give you a lift. Oh, who’s this girl? I haven’t seen her before.”
The Black Night Raven looked at the gigantic head looming above her. Her face twitched, and she remembered her earlier oath made in the name of the Dragon God, and how she had claimed that someone like the Dragon Clan Leader wouldn’t be able to hear it.
Well, the Dragon Clan Leader was here now, what should she do? Would he swallow her whole? With this thought, she rolled her eyes and passed out.
In that instant before she fainted, she felt somewhat relieved. Whether dead or alive, at least she wouldn’t have to face everything while conscious.
Unfortunately, her relief was premature. When she woke up and felt something hard beneath her, she instantly sprung up in shock: Am I… lying on the dragon’s back?
