"He's here!"

Peng Yi roared loudly as he raised his shield to block an iron fork that was flying towards him. "Mmm."

After encountering such heavy casualties, the Demonified Fishmen changed their original tactics. They no longer jumped onto the deck with all their might, but instead pulled apart the distance between them and threw large numbers of flying forks at the people on the warship.

The soldier was lucky that he was not hit directly by the trident, or else he would be in big trouble if he did not die.

However, the situation was still precarious!

"Brother Peng …"

A soldier shouted, "Let's hide in the cabin!"

The warriors from the Empire's Expansion Legion were few and far between. They were usually brave and valiant in battle, but it was one thing for them to fight head on with the Demonized Fish People. It was another for them to be used as live targets by the Demonized Fish People.

Furthermore, the attacks of the Demonized Fish People seemed to be endless. After shooting out a wave of crossbows, they quickly submerged back into the water, and the second group of demonized Fishmen with iron forks floated back up and continued throwing.

The tridents thrown by the Demonified Fishmen could pierce through the standard armor worn by the examinees, but they didn't have much destructive power towards the sturdy hull. Many of them were nailed onto the hull and deck, and the prongs pierced only a few inches into the hull.

Thus, hiding back in the cabin was undoubtedly a safe choice.

In fact, on the other two warships that carried the descendants of influential families, many of the aristocratic young men had already hidden themselves in the cabin, leaving the warship guards and sailors outside to withstand the attacks of the demonized merfolk.

It was a disgrace to say that the weapons and defensive equipment used by these aristocratic families were far superior to those used by the military warriors. However, their abilities in battle were far inferior and thus, they were the first to escape.

Peng Yi bellowed, "It won't be safe to hold on for a while longer even if we return to the cabin!"

If everyone fled back into the cabin, wouldn't the warship be a turtle in a jar after being occupied by the Demonified Fishmen since no one was guarding it?

Instead of dying a miserable death like that, they might as well have a good fight here!

Everyone thought this was reasonable, so they temporarily gave up on hiding and continued to persevere.

What they regretted the most was not having brought an extra battle shield with them. As a result, there was no replacement and they did not know how much longer they could last. A thick layer of haze enveloped their hearts.

The only hope was that the demonized Murlocs would quickly use up all their forks – they couldn't possibly have an endless supply of weapons, right?

At that moment, Nie Feng suddenly took a big step forward and broke away from the defensive circle of his battle formation.

After being forced to jump down from the mast, he had the Divine Arm Bow in his hand, but he didn't have much of an effect. Under the attack of the Demonized Fish People, he could only change into a blade and shield to defend himself.

However, right now, Nie Feng didn't want to be a coward waiting for death!

Putting the sword back into its scabbard, he quickly pulled out an iron fork that was inserted into the deck.

Peng Yi happened to see it, and hurriedly shouted, "Nie Feng, quickly retreat! It's dangerous!"

When the arrow shot out, everyone huddled together to protect each other. If they rushed out on their own, they would simply be courting death!

He didn't want to see an accident befall Nie Feng at a time like this.

Besides, it was useless to run out now. There were no more Demonified Fishmen alive on the deck of the ship. They were all hiding in the f * cking water, unable to retaliate even if they wanted to. It was really depressing.

The Azure Hunting Battleship was originally equipped with battle crossbows, but in the previous battles, most of the crossbows were destroyed by the Demonified Fishmen who had jumped onto the ship. The remaining crossbows were not spared.

The sudden appearance of the Demonified Fishmen coupled with their astonishing numbers caught the fleet off guard!

Whoosh!

In the next moment, Nie Feng's actions caused Peng Yi, who was worried for him, to be dumbstruck.

Nie Feng actually threw the iron trident in his hand with all his might, aiming for a Murlocs that just floated out of the water!

This demonized mermaid used a very heavy weapon that weighed 20-30 jin. The craftsmanship was very crude, and even normal blacksmiths would scoff at it.

However, it was precisely this type of iron trident that caused heavy casualties among the examinees. Its material quality was very outstanding, and was far beyond what ordinary fine iron could compare to. The tip of the double-headed trident was sharpened to the point that it even had a barb on top.

Once one was hit by this kind of iron trident, there would be two bloody holes appearing in his body. Furthermore, it would be very difficult to pull them out. Only by forcefully cutting them off would it be possible and very troublesome.

Now that it was in Nie Feng's hands, it was still a fierce and powerful weapon.

The iron trident flashed with a scarlet red light and instantly moved dozens of steps away. It accurately hit the demonized mermaid's chest and directly penetrated it, leaving behind a terrifying huge wound.

The demonized Murlocs only had time to let out a blood-curdling screech before sinking into the water!

Having succeeded in his first attack, Nie Feng grabbed a second iron fork and threw it towards the river's surface.

Peng Yi suddenly came to his senses.

It wasn't that they didn't have any ways to fight back, but that they were right in front of their eyes.

What better weapon to counterattack than the demonized Murlocs' forked weapon?

It was everywhere on the warship!

Peng Yi immediately shouted in excitement, "Use the iron trident! Use the iron trident to shoot these beasts to death!"
