Chapter 175

At the passenger ship deck!

Hundreds of ordinary people were squatting with their heads held, trembling as they were surrounded by dozens of pirates, not daring to show the slightest resistance.

Confirming that these people were relatively honest, a small pirate leader breathed a sigh of relief.

In any case, the first step was stabilized.

If these people made a scene, it would be really hard to handle.

Afterward, he looked at the Alcor, which was splitting the waves, and his heart was very heavy.

Whether this hurdle could be passed depended on future developments; in addition to his bad mood, his tone was naturally not much better.

"Why haven't those few brats come back yet?"

Discovering that the few brothers who went to the private room to press people hadn't returned, the small leader's mood was even worse.

"What time is it, and they still have the mood to play with women."

He thought those people should have seen women who looked "047" good inside and couldn't control their desires, so they forced themselves on them; this kind of thing hadn't happened just once or twice.

He was just about to call someone to call those bastards back.

"You two, go in and take a look; don't let those guys mess around, business is important, lest they have weak legs and can't even hold their swords later."

The cursing small leader pointed out a few people and asked them to go in and meet up.

Who knew that just as they walked to the cabin door, accompanied by a bang, a few people flew back along the broken wooden door with shrill screams.

Their chests were sunken, they were spitting blood, and they were breathing more than they were exhaling; it looked like they weren't going to live.

Such a change made many pirates stunned for a time, and even the ordinary people who were squatting looked over curiously.

The next moment, two girls with completely different styles appeared before their eyes.

"Hmph, a bunch of scum."

Eula, in a waist-cinching spinning yarn outfit and short pants with high-heeled boots, dragged her greatsword and looked at the enemy coldly.

And Noelle had completely taken off her armor, wearing a pure medieval maid outfit.

Because the purpose of this trip was travel, she wasn't wearing her daily Knights' attire.

Suddenly encountering an accident, it was impossible to change clothes again.

Before they could react, Eula took action against the intimidated crowd for the first time.

"Seal!"

As she raised her hand, a large ice barrier suddenly rose, like a fortress, surrounding and sealing all the ordinary people on the deck, completely protecting them.

The sudden change made the small pirate leader furious and anxious; if they lost their hostages, how could they negotiate with the Alcor?

A bad premonition arose in his heart, and he hurriedly ordered.

"You guys go quickly and kill those two women, and the rest follow me to chop down these damn ice blocks, otherwise we'll all die!"

The order was given, and in the critical moment, the pirates acted swiftly.

Taking advantage of their accomplices rushing to kill Eula and Noelle, the small leader raised his sword and slashed hard at the solid ice first.

Following that, the result stunned him; the ice that should have been fragile was actually incredibly hard, and except for leaving a shallow knife mark, it was completely undamaged.

"Bad! Those two women..."

Vaguely guessing that they had bumped into an iron plate, the small leader hurriedly looked up at the cabin door, and his pupils contracted sharply.

That elegant girl with short ice-blue hair was dragging her greatsword like a butterfly passing through flowers; although she was in battle, her steps were incredibly noble, as if participating in a high-class dance party.

However, what was sprinkling around wasn't charming flower petals, but shocking blood.

She could kill everyone with pure sword skills alone, but out of experimental psychology, Eula still wanted to try the power of the demon's blood more.

Retiring a few steps quickly, she knelt on one knee with excitement and pressed her hand on the deck.

In an instant, a layer of thick, solid ice condensed on the originally empty wooden board, and many pirates slipped and fell screaming.

Afterward, countless ice cones generated in mid-air shot down like a rainstorm, and a large number of corpses lay down.

Many pirates were horrified; this wasn't an opponent at all; staying here was simply sending themselves to death.

Ignoring the small leader's order to persuade them, some people directly intended to jump into the sea, planning to escape by diving.

Having lived on the sea for many years, the pirates' swimming skills went without saying; maybe they could still save their lives.

"Want to run? It's not that easy."

Seeing this, Eula curled her lips in contempt and rose to stomp on a pirate's ribs with her high-heeled boots; the spurting blood hadn't even touched her before it was covered in ice crystals.

At the same time, the sea surface surrounding the passenger ship suddenly solidified, and everything within several thousand meters was covered by a thick ice layer.

The pirates who jumped down were terrified; falling from such a height would at least cause a fracture, but this wasn't what made them despair...

What was most terrifying was that the ice layer suddenly erected sharp ice spears, the tips flashing with cold light, densely packed like thorns.

The pirates who jumped down felt their scalps tingle and emitted harsh and sharp screams.

The short fear soon came to an abrupt end, as countless spear tips were stained with blood, piercing the human body into a tattered sieve.

The remaining pirates who wanted to jump felt their scalps explode and subconsciously retreated.

Who would dare to jump here? Jumping down wasn't seeking death.

Such a miserable way to die didn't make Eula feel any compassion; compared to what these people had done in the past, it was better to say they got off easy.

On the other side!

Unlike Eula's method, Noelle was slightly more benevolent.

Before acting, she even politely lifted her skirt and bowed reservedly.

It was just that that Silver-Star greatsword looked completely out of place compared to the young girl's petite body.

"Then, excuse me!"

As soon as the words fell, the maid who had been quiet just now showed her fangs.

The Silver-Star greatsword brought up a whistling gale, and the broad and open war dance could be swung even on the deck.

No, rather than saying it could be swung, it was more like Noelle violently chopping and destroying everything that blocked her way.

The irritable greatsword shattered weapons and relied on brute force to directly knock away several people.

Suffering the impact, the more fragile pirates had their internal organs shifted, suffered internal bleeding, or had their bones shattered, wailing constantly.

Noelle held the greatsword in one hand, and from time to time used Iaijutsu with the other, relying on the impact brought by Godspeed, even the damage caused by the greatsword was amplified.

The pirates watched in cold fear; where did these monsters jump out from?

The idea of capturing them and doing whatever they wanted disappeared without a trace; at this moment, they wished they could grow a pair of wings and fly away quickly, the further the better.

"You... don't come over here!"

The pirates, who were clearly in the position of villains, couldn't help but collapse and shout; it was a battle with no power to resist, even the army couldn't hold out, let alone a mob that bullied the weak.

Before and after, it took no more than ten minutes, and the pirate side was completely defeated.
