0067 Unknown reason for the destruction of the group
The assault boats docked at the end of the waterway, tied the cables to the silent Macaw.
The sailors landed in turn, shouting trumpets, pushing down the lightest four-pound cannon from the Macaw.
This is a temporary adjustment plan after guessing the outcome of Nasbult's team.
Before this, no one thought that he would really take risks like a clumsy army.
In theory, this is a stupid decision.
In order to fire further on the shaking ship and the parabola is more stable, the casting of sea ship artillery has always been larger, more sophisticated, and heavier than land war artillery.
Compare the six-pound cannons of the same level. The six-pound land war cannons often weigh less than one ton and are equipped with light gun cars. The six-pound long cannon used in the sea weighs two tons.
Even the lightest and shortest barrel on the Butterfly Flower, the six-pound short cannon selected by Lorraine to install on the boat, weighs 1.2 tons.
It is a fantasy to take risks in a rugged sea cave with such a huge object.
However, the Macaw provided Lorraine with a different choice.
Its stern gun cabin has six well-preserved four-pound guns, and the overall weight is only 0.7 tons.
There are also cannon trucks in the cannon cabin for easy transportation. Although they are small bikes for decks, it is still possible to take risks with cannons.
There is no shortage of shells corresponding to the caliber. Scatters, solid bullets, and strand bullets... Iron shells are wrapped in dry ointment and are stacked next to the cannon, and are neatly stacked.
The only regret is that the launching medicine stored in the bottom cabin has deteriorated. Fortunately, Lorraine has six parts of the launching medicine, which is repackaged according to the caliber of the four-pound gun. It takes little effort to divide it into eight parts.
Yacharin, who has professional skills, calculated the hardness of the rock wall of the sea cave and determined that the four-pound shotgun could not collapse the hole wall. In this way, Lorraine's idea was passed, and the expedition team successfully added a huge reliance.
There are twenty people left in the expedition.
In order to make good use of this cannon, Lorraine adjusted four people to be responsible for pushing and pulling the cannon truck. The two people pushed the ammunition and cooperated with Yacharin to assist in the cannon operation. They formed a luxury artillery squad with a total of seven people and were placed in the middle of the team.
The remaining sailors were also placed. Lorraine and Noya took five sailors to lead the way, and Henna took five sailors behind the temple to protect the retreat.
The seafarers took advantage of the time of unloading the gun and distributing the medicine and reviewing it repeatedly until they were sure that they had made enough preparations. Lorraine huddled up the torch and said softly: "Get off."
...
The cave is quiet...
The dome did not rise with the rise of the foundation. Under the illumination of more than a dozen torches, the zenith that could not be shined with light became clear, only about three meters high. For Lorraine, it seemed that it could be reached with a hand.
The width of the cave is also narrowing.
From the beginning, the waterway was as wide as 14 or 5 meters, and now the two walls are only five or six meters wide, the expedition team can see their surroundings clearly, and at the same time they can see the fork holes clearly, some are deep and some are shallow, some are barely able to pedestrians, and some are unable to even get into cats.
Lorraine was holding Yacharin's newly obtained sting sword.
In such a cramped environment, his combat ability is greatly weakened, he cannot jump or hide, and he cannot even use a long sword he is good at. His height, arm length and knife length cannot be used at all in this place.
The cannon... obviously cannot be opened either.
He felt that he had walked into a huge ant hole, and even began to think that the culprit of the group's destruction of the Nasbolt team was some kind of prehistoric ant, tall and big.
Probably not?
He comforted himself in his heart with an uncertain tone, while comforting, but he walked more carefully, especially those fork holes, big or small, that must be thoroughly investigated before he dared to take the adventure team through.
They walked for half an hour with fear, and they encountered no danger.
Lorraine raised her hand: "Stay on the spot, the second group will keep watch."
The team stopped at his command and gathered together. Four sailors left the team, two in front and two behind, each raising fire and clenching his knives.
Lorraine opened the water bag and took a sip of water. Noya approached him and asked softly: "Captain, what do you think is the danger?"
"I don't know." Lorraine shook her head, "Ingel Yanason is my bloodline ancestor, a 9th-century Viking. Judging from the size of the long ship and the executed oar slaves, even if he placed the treasure land deep in the cave, he would not have the power to create a trap that could run for a thousand years."
"But the explorer's team was completely destroyed. Could it be another riot?"
"Rust is not impossible, but there is almost no chance that no one will escape during the riot. Most of the time, a rebellion will always produce winners."
"Beast?"
"If you want to destroy a 40-person team with adventure as a professional team, the beasts in the cave would be either in groups or extremely huge. As Yacharin said, if such beasts treat treasure land as nests, how could there be any gold artifacts to keep..." Lorraine smiled bitterly, "Don't forget that Nasbert is not an ancient man, but only a hundred years earlier than us. But he saw the treasure with his own eyes and almost took them away."
Noya was also confused.
The two of them discussed for a long time but couldn't figure it out. They were planning to ask Henna and Yacharin if they had any new insights, and the mutation suddenly arises!
The sailor who was rushing in front of the team suddenly screamed.
He screamed and fell to the ground, lying flat and slid into a fork hole not far away, as if he was dragged by a mysterious force, with no power to resist at all.
Immediately afterwards, the team also screamed.
Aina was quick-eyed and quick-handed, and shot out the flying knife with a loud bang, and shouted: "Lorraine, ankle!"
ankle!
Lorraine didn't want to fly out. While running, the long sword on her waist suddenly unsheathed, like a steel wheel, flew past the sailor and the center of the fork hole.
puff!
The sailor stopped immediately.
The sailor who was on duty with him ran up and dragged his terrified teammate back to the team. Lorraine picked up the torch that fell on the ground and flew out in the direction of the fork hole.
The torches illuminate the distant scenery.
The attacker was a huge lizard, more than three meters long, with a hideous triangular head, black and brown all over, and rough skin. Its body was covered with bumps, shaped like scales, but without scales.
It swayed its thick tail and slowly drilled out of the fork hole. Its eyes were staring at Lorraine with its sharp claws and its sharp claws splashed out of the rocks.
"Komodo...a giant lizard?"
Lorraine raised the stabbing sword vigilantly.
He saw more giant lizards stepping into the flames, and there were five in front of the team, from the dome, from the rock wall, from the fork holes... He also heard the sailors behind the temple shouting, and four had been found behind the team.
"Acharin, the hole is too small, don't fire a gun..." He whispered in a low voice that could barely reach Acharin's ear, "Neya, fight for a quick battle."
Before he finished speaking, Lorraine rushed out quickly, and took a big step and stood in front of the giant lizard whose tongue was cut off. The sword in her hand stabbed straight into the eyes like a flash.
The giant lizard is not slower than him at all!
At the moment when Lorraine started, the five giant lizards started at the same time. They jumped towards Lorraine with a rapid and unmatched length, swung their claws forward, shook their tails left and right, and crawled backwards on the dome and popped up at Lorraine's long tongue, like a stabbing sword, shooting straight towards Lorraine's throat!
But Lorraine was not afraid!
He stabbed a sharp sword at the target in the lunge, and half pulled out the long sword with his spare left hand, pressing against the back of the knife and blocking it sideways.
Noya shot out her silver tarot like a flower, and dozens of them flew past Lorraine, cutting off the long tongue above Lorraine's head, and tinkling to offset a sweep.
Yacharin fired a musket with a bang, and the smoke swept, and the fiery red lead bullet hit the body of a giant lizard, knocking it out half a meter.
A giant lizard swung its claws on Lorraine's long knife.
Only a tingling sound was heard, Lorraine groaned, and the stabbing sword in her hand pierced through the target's eyeball at the same time, and she picked it up and broke out!
The target's claw stopped less than twenty centimeters beside Lorraine, and fell softly and weakly to the ground.
Lorraine suddenly pulled out, turned her side and led her long sword in an inverted manner, and slashed towards the second target in front of her.
Chapter completed!
