Chapter 722 Port Invasion

The sky in the middle of the night was covered with dark clouds, the moon and stars were completely blocked, and darkness shrouded the entire Lion Harbor.

Only the lighthouse in the dock area is still burning with blazing flames, providing navigation for ships on the distant sea.

A fleet of ships followed this light and approached the port. The dedicated port authority officers on duty discovered the situation and immediately sent out a small boat to check.

The small boat approaches the leading ship. According to regulations, they need to check the entry permit of the new ship and have a general understanding of the cargo on board. After the ship docks, more people will come on board to conduct detailed inspections and conduct detailed inspections according to the regulations. Certain taxes are charged depending on the type and price of the goods.

"Jess! Is it Jace?" Someone on the first boat suddenly shouted towards the boat below.

"Martin, is that you?"

"Haha, it's me! I thought it was you when I saw the figure, and when I asked, it turned out to be the case. My permit is still valid, remember it!" The people on the fleet continued to shout towards the small boat.

On the Port Authority boat, a staff member asked his colleague, whom people on the boat called Jess, "Do I still need to board the boat for inspection?"

Jess shook his head, "No, Martin is a frequent visitor here. He is right. Their entry and exit permits are still valid. Let them enter the port and take a closer look after they dock."

The small boats of the Port Authority guided the five large ships of this fleet into the Port of Lions, approaching the dock little by little amid the lapping of the waves.

There is already a team waiting on the pier. Although the fleet has permission to enter the port, the inspection steps are still indispensable. Especially in this special period of uncertainty, the security in Lion Harbor has become much stricter than before.

The gangplank was lowered with a bang, connecting the ship and the dock. The port staff stepped onto the gangplank with a light and asked as they walked: "What kind of goods are you transporting?"

But as soon as he stepped onto the boat, a flash of silver light suddenly appeared from the darkness, and the next moment it stabbed into the abdomen of this unlucky man, and he only had time to utter "Uh...".

Before the port staff on the pier had time to react, a continuous whooshing sound broke the tranquility of the night. Countless sharp crossbow arrows were fired from the deck towards the pier, immediately killing more than half of the people on the pier.

"There are enemies!" The people who were still alive were frightened. Those who reacted faster immediately ran towards the shore and shouted at the top of their lungs.

This happened not only to this one, but also to the five ships that had just docked. The muscular "crew", armed with weapons such as knives and guns, quickly took control of the nearby dock under the cover of bows and crossbows.

"Thank you, Mr. Martin!"

On the leading ship, the man in a black cloak thanked Martin.

The man he called Martin was a middle-aged man in his late forties, with a thin build and a shrewd light in his eyes.

"Haha..." He smiled reluctantly, "It's an honor for me to be able to help Grand Duke Giles."

The man in a black cloak nodded, "His Royal Highness the Duke will reward you for your merits and will definitely give you the franchise you want."

Martin's heart did not seem to be completely occupied by joy. It could be seen from the expression on his face that he should be feeling mixed emotions now.

Looking at the "crew" who had jumped ashore and were rushing towards the interior of the port, Martin said: "The security of Lion Port should be very tight now, are you sure?"

The cloaked man laughed mockingly, as if he was laughing at Martin's timidity.

"Do you know what kind of army this is?"

"What?"

"They are called -" The cloaked man paused, then emphasized the words: "The Undead Army!"

"No... the undead army? The legendary undead army?" Martin's mouth formed an O shape.

He had heard that Grand Duke Giles of the Greedy Wolf had a powerful army under his command. The soldiers of this army fought bravely and were not afraid of death. Moreover, they were all extremely powerful and highly skilled in martial arts. They could stay awake without eating or drinking. Marching and fighting on the ground, his physical fitness far exceeds the limits of ordinary people.

Moreover, this army only has 6,000 people. It has never expanded or shrunk. Its members are as if they have always been the same people, so it is called the Undead Army.

Archduke Giles actually sent such an elite force to fight for Port of Lions?

The man in the cloak smiled sinisterly and said: "These Yankees are only focused on defending against threats on land. I'm afraid they never dreamed that enemies would come from the sea. How arrogant they are!"

"Don't be careless. I heard there are thousands of people stationed here!" Martin reminded him.

"Then let's make this place more chaotic! Let the whole city be in chaos!"

The cloaked man suddenly stretched out his arm, pointed his palm directly in front of him, and kept mumbling something.

Martin and others felt something gathering on the cloaked man's palm.

At this moment, a burst of blazing heat suddenly burst out from the palm of his hand, followed by a burst of dazzling light. The cloaked man's hand suddenly produced a ball of flame out of thin air, and immediately separated from his hand and flew towards the shore.

A pile of wooden boxes was piled up on the shore, as high as a hill. Suddenly, the flames hit the pile of wooden boxes, and a roaring fire broke out.

There is no mistake. One post, one content, one 6 one, one book, one book, take a look!

"I'm going to set the whole city on fire!" The cloaked man laughed.

"Witch...witchcraft!" Martin was stunned. There was actually a spell caster under Giles' command?

But the stone in his heart fell to the ground. It was an undead army and a spell caster. It seemed that Giles was determined to win this city.

Although he felt a little sorry for this city - to be honest, he liked this port very much - but it might be a better choice to join Grand Duke Giles.

Just as Martin was thinking this, the situation changed a little.

To his left, there was a sudden roar like a muffled thunder!

Then a burst of light broke out - strictly speaking, it was earlier than the sound - and everyone on the deck was instinctively attracted to turn their eyes to the left.

Only then did they see clearly that it was a ball of orange-yellow flames. It was so bright that it illuminated the area of ​​nearly 100 meters around it, and also allowed Martin and others to see the behemoth that spewed out this ball of flame.

A behemoth, that ship is really a behemoth! Or... built a castle on the ship?

"Whoosh!"

Martin could feel that something seemed to pass by his side at high speed, and the airflow caused by it actually made half of his body hurt.

Just when everyone was still confused about the situation, the second group of flames burst out, followed by the third group, the fourth group... clusters of flames gushed out from the giant ship.

They didn't know that the ship they were on was "lucky" to be anchored next to the "Sea Fortress" of the Alda Navy, and the dark night with dark clouds and moon prevented the invaders from noticing the giant ship not far away at the first time.

When Giles's men began to act, the sentry on the sea fortress immediately noticed the abnormality not far away, so they rang the bell to sound the alarm.

Because it was in the war preparation period, the combatants on the ship were awakened and entered the combat state in a short time.

The captain who stayed on the ship made a prompt decision-to bombard the invader's ship.
