Scarface is a well-known pirate leader in this sea area, but his chief assassin Sea Ghost is on the contrary, and his reputation is rarely known.

Just like his name, he seems to be a life-seeking ghost hidden in the sea.

Mysterious, dangerous, deadly... yet unknown.

Not many people knew that the martial arts he practiced were not martial arts commonly inherited by the human race. Instead, they came from the mysterious and unknown marine race in the real sea.

During a trip to the sea many years ago, he accidentally obtained this set of Sea Clan martial arts. As a young and ignorant man, he was confused by the powerful power of this advanced set of martial arts, and he practiced it forcefully without realizing that these were not human martial arts.

Logically speaking, it is impossible for humans to successfully practice the martial arts of other races. After all, the body structures of the human race and the sea race are completely different, so it would be weird if they could succeed.

Out of ten people who dare to do this, nine and a half will train themselves to death. But Sea Ghost is indeed an exception, or a weirdo.

The exception is that he has successfully practiced the martial arts of the Sea Clan and at the same time possesses the powerful strength of a high-level warrior.

Not only does it allow him to move freely underwater, it also allows him to hide his own aura under the cover of sea water.

The ability brought by this sea clan martial arts is destined to be a good material for him to be a sea assassin. But there are gains and losses. How can there be such a good opportunity in reality, and it can make people stronger without any cost?

Turning into this inhuman and ghostly appearance was just one of the costs of practicing foreign martial arts. The more serious cost was that he became as difficult as a fish to leave the sea for a long time.

For humans, I am afraid that even the species has become distorted. This cost is not small.

At this moment, this skinny and ghost-like figure is like a nimble fish when sneaking in the sea. With the help of the sea clan's martial arts, he can swim underwater at such a fast speed that the seawater seems to be making way for him.

In an instant, the sea ghost had moved quietly under the pale ship.

The salty seawater soaked his eyes, and the dryness and pain that he was accustomed to could not shake him at all. He looked up from under the sea to the sky above the ship, and the fireball technique repeatedly bombarded Ariel with astonishing power.

While feeling secretly awe-inspiring in his heart, he silently dived again to the back of the boat and lay dormant quietly, waiting for the moment of assassination when he emerged from the water.

'If this continues, even if all their ships are blown up, they will probably be piled alive by these thousands of pirates...'

Ariel, who had been maintaining the fireball bombardment, saw that the damage caused by the fireball technique had become increasingly weak. Even though several pirate ships were bombed, the pirates on board jumped into the sea and ran away when they saw that the situation was not going well.

'Even if it's a battle with no chance of winning, I don't want to wait to lose like this. I have to find a way to break the situation...'

Thinking of this, the girl saw Scarface still standing on the sea without taking any action, and a bold idea emerged in her mind.

Under the observation of the sea ghost lurking under the sea bottom of the ship, he easily discovered the decrease in the girl's casting speed. The fireball bombardment that used to be several rounds per second was only about two per second at most.

'good chance!'

Although I don't know whether it is due to the opponent's magic power consumption or other reasons, this is undoubtedly a good time to take action.

A cold light flashed across the originally dim eyes of the sea ghost, and he jumped up from the sea without hesitation. While the hiding effect of the sea water was still there, he soared up like an erratic shadow.

The dark blue dagger seems to be integrated with the sea water, and all the blue fighting spirit light is hidden in it!

Advanced fighting skill: "Spur of the Hidden Sea"!

His skinny ghost-like figure jumped into the air silently. By the time he was noticed, he had already appeared behind Ariel in an instant. The only thing that could stop him now was the flame shield in front of him.

Even if the target is close at hand, as a qualified assassin, Sea Ghost still maintains his emotional stability. Just like the deep sea, it harvests life calmly and indifferently.

The dagger looks light and flimsy, but it contains all the explosive power of advanced martial arts. The moment it touches the flame barrier, it shatters inch by inch under the load.

The flame shield lasted less than a second before being pierced, but the dagger in the sea ghost's hand still stabbed the girl in front of him in the back without stopping.

It's not that he was so arrogant that he wanted to disobey Scarface's order, but he just felt that since the defense was broken, why not use more force and simply capture the person and get it over with?

The moment the opponent appeared behind her, Ariel, who had a keen sense of perception, had already sensed the approaching danger. But at this time, she was already chanting a magic spell, coupled with the sea ghost's extremely fast attack speed.

The girl barely reacted when she felt that the shield was broken. Her face changed drastically for a moment, and she could not hide the shock in her heart.

She really didn't expect that there would be two high-level combatants in such a small pirate group?!

The two unscrupulous theatergoers on the boat below saw this critical scene. They almost dropped the snacks they were chewing. Black Dragon Xiaobai couldn't help but be surprised.

"It turns out that there is more than one high-level warrior in this pirate group?!"

Wanwan was not surprised by this, and calmly looked at the critical scene in front of him.

"Yes, this assassin has some weird abilities. He can always lurk in the sea. But I forgot to remind her."

"Is the little guy going to be okay?"

Black Dragon Xiaobai said with some worry.

"No, she's not that weak..."

…

In any case, not expecting the sudden appearance of the assassin was a mistake. And mistakes have to be paid for, especially mistakes made in battle, which are more likely to cost your life.

It's just that this time the sea ghost didn't mean to take the girl's life. Although the power of a strike containing advanced martial arts was terrifying, as a qualified assassin, his control over his own power was extremely good.

He could easily stab Ariel with this knife and capture her without harming her life. His control over the dagger in his hand was no less than that of a surgeon's scalpel.

As the dagger hit the target, the sea ghost steadily grasped the force. After the dagger penetrated the flesh, it made a long cut. This way, it would not really hurt the girl, but it could also cause severe pain to make the other party lose it.

Resistance.

'it's over……'

This thought just appeared in his mind, but the next moment he suddenly realized something was wrong.

What's wrong? The touch feels wrong!

As the chief assassin in the pirate group, he can count the number of people who have died under his dagger on both hands. He is also extremely familiar with the feeling of a dagger piercing flesh.

Before he could react this time, the girl's figure with a shocked face in front of him turned into flames and dissipated in the next moment.

'Oops!'

The next moment, the red flames turned into chains, wrapping around him like poisonous snakes. Sea Ghost, who was a high-level warrior after all, instinctively wanted to break free.

But he found that the chains formed by the flames were stronger than real metal chains, and it was difficult for him to break free even with his physical strength.

It was only at this moment that the girl's figure slowly emerged from the side. At the same time, the obscure spell chanting in her mouth also became clear at this moment.

At this time, the sea ghost suddenly realized that the decrease in the frequency of the opponent's fireball bombardment was not due to lack of magic power. It was because the opponent was distracted by chanting magic spells and releasing another advanced spell!

While he was still struggling desperately, the girl's chant was coming to an end. Scorching heat was brewing around him, and a wisp of dark red flame slowly emerged in Ariel's hand.

Advanced spell: "Burn out"!

At the moment when the flames took shape, she finally breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the bound assassin in front of her. There was no trace of the shock and panic she had pretended to have before, but only indifference and calmness in her voice.

"Intermediate-level spell: Lock of Flame. As an intermediate-level spell, it is not only slow to cast, but also difficult to control remotely. However, it has an irreplaceable advantage, and that is its powerful binding property."

"Although it is only an intermediate-level spell, after being locked by it, even high-level warriors can be trapped for a while."

When Ariel said this, she paused and looked at the ugly and skinny sea ghost in front of her with a somewhat surprised look.

"But I really didn't expect the existence of a high-level assassin like you. This trap of the Flame Lock was originally prepared for Scarface."

"Thank you for the experience imparted by previous pursuits. Assassins like you always like to make surprise attacks."

The last thing mentioned was obviously another high-level assassin encountered at the Bihai City Pier. Of course, the opponent's level was far inferior to the sea ghost in front of him.

Looking at the skinny assassin in front of her who was still trying to break free, the fire in Ariel's red eyes gradually became brighter, as if there was a blazing flame burning in them.

"It's time to deal with you. Although you didn't mean to kill me just now, you didn't have any good intentions either. As an enemy, I'd better ask you to die!"

The moment the girl's voice fell, her figure once again turned into a wisp of flame and dissipated in front of the Sea Ghost. Ariel's last words rang out right behind him!

Talking so much nonsense is certainly not because Ariel suddenly became talkative. It is mainly because of the limitations of the "burn out" flame. She cannot control it out of thin air and can only throw it at close range.

She is accustomed to being 100% vigilant when facing any enemy. This is her essential professional quality as a little crispy mage.

Besides, the opponent is not that weakling Captain Reed. As a leader among high-level assassins, Ariel will not be so naive as to think that if she binds the opponent with a chain of flames, he will not be able to resist.

On the contrary, facing this insidious assassin who suddenly appeared, the girl was absolutely 200% vigilant.

That's why he uses verbal interference to attract the opponent's attention, and then quietly replaces himself with the "flame phantom body". The real body quietly goes around behind the opponent, and ends with "burning out" flames at close range.

enemy!

The sea ghost, who was bound by the flame chain, turned around with difficulty. Looking at the dark red flames that were already close at hand, the terrifying high temperature that was coming towards him almost caused him to die of dehydration.
