Chapter 449: Chapter 276: The Feast at Hongmen_4

Since cooperation had already been declared a failure, the next step was to seize the current opportunity and strike the other party. As long as the attack was successful, one could obtain the opponent’s level and characteristics, giving them an understanding of the opponent’s weakness or strength. At the very least, they needed to confirm whether the other party was truly of legendary-level strength.

No one had spoken in the game for two minutes now.

Behind the scenes, the Son of Heaven was secretly rallying his forces, preparing for a wholesale assault. However, just when they were about to strike, a sudden notification of a smile came from the game.

[Smile: Wait, something’s off! There’s fog rolling in at sea!]

[Son of Heaven: Fog? Where?]

[Smile: It’s surrounding the other party’s ship. A white fog has suddenly enveloped them.]

Reading the in-game text, the Son of Heaven realized what was happening and hurriedly ordered, "Everyone, attack now!"

"And tell those hired pirate ships to fire, and sink the other party’s ship!"

Since they had already decided to turn against the other party, they couldn’t hold back. It was not possible to kill them off completely here, but they could at least destroy their ship, significantly weakening their competitive advantage at sea.

Upon his command, more than ten people from the Ace of Spades’ cabin sprung into action.

Simultaneously, in the outer sea, the pirate ships around began thundering salvos, with various magical powers and goblin-tech cannons firing straight into the foggy area in the center.

Inside the cabin, Smile, the only person in the room whose original body was in another realm, attacked the Ghost Captain with the fiercest assault as he was the main power in this battle.

To gauge the Ghost Captain’s strength, he had already prepared to be counter-killed, ready to sacrifice himself once or even multiple times.

But what he didn’t expect was that his strike easily hit the target. The luminous blade, ablaze with flames, effortlessly penetrated the back of the black-robed person before him, protruding from his chest.

The next moment, the attacks from others followed suit, and the black-robed person was engulfed in a moment by the lights and shadows of the magic.

"No, this is just a clone!"

Watching the figure, which had turned into wooden debris in the blink of an eye, Smile reported the news with a grim face.

"A clone? Weren’t you sure it was the real body?"

"Who knew, this clone is too high quality, at least at the Forbidden Curse level, enough to deceive us with its illusion, and fooled my inspection spell..." Smile looked a bit embarrassed, but now was not the time to dwell on this.

If the other side had only sent a clone, then it meant that the opponent’s real body was likely still on the Ghost Ship, and that fog was obviously their doing. This meant that they had guessed they would be ambushed and would have prepared in advance.

Now that both sides had ripped off their masks, their long-prepared surprise attack had hit a cushion. And next, they were likely to receive a fierce counterattack from the other party!

"The fog is spreading..."

Smile came out to the deck, anxiously watching the open sea ahead.

The dense, white fog was visibly increasing at a fast pace, approaching quickly from afar. In an instant, it had enveloped all the ships in the nearby sea.

"Creak..."

At that moment, a string of low and faint chirping sounds unexpectedly came from the ship’s bottom.

"Is that thunder?"

Smile perked up his ears, trying hard to recognize.

The faint chirping sound quickly amplified, resembling countless small electric arcs mixed together, conducting a crackling symphony.

The next second, he saw a ten-meter-long electric arc rising from the sea bed, like a dazzling laser sword, cutting toward his ship’s side.

"The enemy is hiding under the sea!!"

Seeing this, Smile’s heart skipped a beat, and he quickly issued a warning.

However, he was a step too late. The electric arc wasn’t moving fast, but the ship was too large to dodge in time.

In the tumultuous sound of the Thunder Arc, everyone could only watch helplessly as the arc sliced through the middle of the ship, splitting it into two.
