Additionally, from the seagulls earlier to the giant white owl now, it seemed that all the witchcraft the opponent was skilled with related to 'controlling birds,' which was completely countered by one's own ability.
"Charge! Capture those two women alive, kill all the men!" Phil Kraz waved his hand grandly, laughing with satisfaction.
Instantly, a group of elite pirates roared with laughter as they raised their weapons and rushed towards the carriage where the two women were!
Vinica turned pale upon seeing this, as she would have been fine if Dai Bai only got hurt, but she feared the enormous emotional toll it would take on her if Dai Bai died in the battle.
Now, as she saw the pirates storming towards her with raging momentum, a wave of panic washed over her unreasonably.
Is this what real battle is?
It was vastly different from the one-on-one, more instructional battles she had experienced before.
Mary immediately cried out, "Everyone dismount, move behind the carriage, form a defensive stance to resist!"
The twelve-person squad, truly elite naval forces, led by two official knights and ten cavalrymen, reacted swiftly; four armed with swords and shields reached the front while another four drew arrows to shoot, with the others ready for action.
"Quick, Vinica, ask Lord Reine for reinforcements!" Mary quickly turned to Vinica.
"Okay!" Vinica swiftly regained her composure and began transmitting messages using witchcraft.
Meanwhile, Phil Kraz leisurely drew a steel arrow, aimed at a figure behind the distant carriage, and took aim.
As Reine was rapidly heading towards the special forces team, suddenly, a seagull in the sky cried out sadly twice, then swiftly spiraled down towards Reine and circled twice.
"Master.... danger.... bow...."
"Companion... two... dead....."
Upon receiving these fragments of consciousness, Reine was momentarily stunned!
But he quickly realized that the special forces team must have encountered a formidable enemy.
Could it be that the special forces team also encountered the Sea God Sect?
Immediately, Reine flicked the reins and swiftly maneuvered 'Black Pearl' toward the direction of the team, galloping at full speed.
This greatly troubled the dragged Myarco of the Sea God Sect behind him!
Despite his tough hide, Myarco was not lightly wounded and his wounds had only begun to heal prospectively; however, with Reine's sudden acceleration, the jolting increased significantly, causing the initially healed wounds to burst open again!
Damn it, why did this bastard suddenly speed up!
Myarco couldn't help but curse internally.
Next to the special forces team's carriage, a pale blue dome-shaped barrier had risen.
It was an effect of a Sorcery Scroll used by Vinica; a group of pirates, under the command of their deputy leader, were furiously chopping at the barrier.
Inside the barrier, five or so cavalrymen wielding swords and shields were either pierced by steel arrows through the chest or had their shields torn and their arms hit, resulting in serious injuries.
Naturally, only Phil Kraz, nicknamed 'the Blood Shooter,' could inflict such injuries with a single arrow.
He looked leisurely at the people inside the pale blue barrier and said, "Although witchcraft is quite magical, even witchcraft has a duration or a capacity limit, and it cannot last indefinitely."

"How much longer can this barrier protect you?"
Gazing at Phil Kraz's smug expression, Vinica couldn't help but angrily say to Major Mary, "Why won't you let me use the 'Tomb of Water' scroll."
"If I used it, this 'Blood Shooter' would surely die without a doubt!"
Vinica, seeing the injured Dai Bai and the equally severely wounded members of the special forces team, felt a slight twinge of self-reproach.
"Vinica, your 'Tomb of Water' scroll is our last resort, even Master Annius had to pay a significant price to create it. It's too precious!"
"Enough time has passed by now, considering Lord Reine's speed, he should be arriving soon."
"If it really becomes too late, then using it wouldn't be too late," Mary said calmly.
Although they were at a disadvantage now, it was absolutely impossible for the opposition to break through the 'Water Barrier' in a short period.
Once Reine arrived, the odds of victory would undoubtedly reverse!
Somehow, Mary felt a special sense of reliability about Reine deep in her heart.
Just as Phil Kraz thought he had the upper hand, he heard the rhythmic sound of hooves from behind.
This sound of hooves was more muted and heavy than usual, as if carrying something heavy, and along with the sound of hooves, there was also a hissing friction noise.
He immediately turned around and saw a large black warhorse, carrying a knight, appear at the end of the road.
Once the knight saw them, he charged towards them, but strangely, he was also holding a rope, seemingly dragging a humanoid object.
Just as Phil Kraz turned to look at Reine, the two women also saw the distant arrival of Reine and couldn't help but show great joy!
"Everyone, hold on a bit longer, Lord Reine is here," Mary couldn't help but show her joy.
Although she had just reassured everyone with a steady demeanor, her heart was actually quite nervous; now seeing Reine appear, she involuntarily breathed a sigh of relief, feeling as though with Reine there, the enemy in front of them was nothing to fear!
Meanwhile, Reine on horseback merely glanced and understood what was happening.
It turned out that Phil Kraz, the notorious 'Blood Shooter' they had been searching for, had unexpectedly appeared here with the special forces team.
