Chapter 1023 - Leaving!
Chapter 1023 - Leaving!
Looking at the chaos around them, Jimosen and Linvors' eyes were blood red in rage.
There was no way that they as dignified Primates would go down like this.
They looked around and quickly seized the megaphones that had dropped on the floor earlier on.
"Everyone! Stay calm!
These bastards haven't tasted our full power yet.
So far, we planned to use everything we've got when we get to Baymard.
But now, that can wait!
Quickly! Bring out all the Black powder and fire away to any who dare get close!"
"Yes, Primates!"
Thinking of the black powder that had just been sitting there, the men suddenly felt very courageous.
That's right!
But matters were very urgent now.
So that could wait
Very quickly, word went fast, spreading towards the 5th inner line.
And just like that, everyone had barrels and barrels of black powder ready for use.
And when they needed black powder, they would open up a cork-hole at the side.
At least this was how they got rum and other things out of the barrels.
Unbeknownst to them, their move of placing rows and rows of black powder on the deck had somewhat saved them.
The Baymardians were scared that any wrong move and these sh.i.p.s could blow up, sinking thousands of chained-up slaves who would drown helplessly alongside the vessels with no way out.
With the heavy chains on their feet and hands, forget it... They would be headed down into the deep waters.
It looks like it was time for Operation C to commence.
.
Seeing the Baymardians somewhat hesitant, the dragias who brought out the black powder were more confident than ever.
"Hahahhahahahah!
It looks like we scared them now."
"Damn. It feels good to put these bastards in their place."
"Hell! Why didn't we do this earlier?"
"Hahahahhaha! I knew that the Primates would always find a way. With them, we are sure to have Dragmus by our side."
"If we didn't panic earlier, I think we should've already been fine. In the end, it was our fault for getting scared and almost losing faith in Dragmus."
"Yes. That's right! That must be the case.
Dragmus was probably angry with us when he saw how frightened and weak we became
But now, it's impossible for us to lose."
"Heh. Stupid Baymardians! What are you scared of? Do you think your beasts will be able to survive against black powder? You better flee before we decide to get serious with you all."
"That's right. Flee and give us way, or else you'll regret it!"
"Look! Those Baymardians who have gotten on the sh.i.p.s in line 4, are now hiding away in fear of our arrows. Heavens! This black powder is really blessed and sacrificed by Dragmus just as the Primates had said."
"Hmhm. After this, I'll be sure to offer more tributes to Dragmus back in the teme. But first, we have to teach these bastards a lesson before we leave."
"Of course! This is the will of Dragmus!"
(^_^)
....
Nonetheless, they still knew that the most important thing right now is to use this to their advantage and clear a path for themselves fast!
Linvor massaged his chin and passed on another message to the rest.
At that point, it didn't take too long before the sh.i.p.s from the 5th to 8th line (center) started moving like a new unit, with the slaves paddling away.
And on their decks, the dragias smirked painfully while continuously pointing their arrows at the Baymardians.
"What! What are you looking at?
Heh. That's what I thought!
You just keep doing you, and we'll keep doing us."
"_"
The dragias badly shouted back to those on the 4th line, as if they were bullies.
This shove was already reckless because they started puncturing and letting in water into the sh.i.p.s.
But they were ready to sacrifice these 3 sh.i.p.s to get the result they wanted, riding and creating a clear path for those behind them.
And once they had cleared enough, they would ensure that the damaged sh.i.p.s stayed on the sides of the cleared space, before jumping onto the other sh.i.p.s behind them.
As for the chained-up slaves, what did it have to do with them?
.
Seeing the Baymardians giving them face and allowing them to do what they wanted, Linvor and Jimosen couldn't help smiling broadly.
Even though they lost, at least Dragmus still accompanied them.
At least, they were alive and would soon get their revenge!
No one could've foreseen that these Baymardians would have such magical creatures with them that could do this much damage.
That's why they had to report this matter to his excellency fast before the pirates discovered this secret.
Dragmus had probably let them lose so as to fully grasp the capabilities of these creatures locked within these Baymardians sh.i.p.s.
Once they got back, it was best for them to collect as many Baymardians fairytale books about the myths and legends, to understand just what they were dealing with.
Was the creature blind and only s.e.n.s.i.t.i.v.e to sound?
Did the creature like eating flesh? Or just liked seaweeds?
They had to get the answers.
Maybe this was the miracle they were waiting for.
With this sort of news, they were very unlikely to get demoted.
So they didn't worry much about their position.
His excellency might even reward them instead.
He would look at them like heroes and send them back for revenge.
And by then, they would teach these good-for-nothing Baymardians what happens when one crosses the Temple!
