Based on the series of attacks just now, Akrawa believes that even if the opponent has some casting ability, it's unlikely they have reached the level of an Official Wizard.
The reason is simple: there are many ways to counter Divination Art, such as super-tier rituals, highly mysterious Extraordinary Items, and spells that disrupt Spirit Realm information.
Even ordinary people with the help of certain Protective Talismans can manage it.
As for the straightforward attack methods, although the "Voodoo Potion" is very effective, Official Wizards have many more sophisticated means and aren't easily countered by one's spells.
Even with a good number of sailors, a single Wizard Apprentice aided by Kara Wusu could kill them all, showing the dominance of the Extraordinary on the battlefield!
It's just uncertain how capable the captain of the warship, which surely belongs to the Official Knight level, would be?
However, the current situation leaves him with little time to consider more; a direct advance on the ship's deck is his side's last opportunity.
"Wizard, leave it to me!"
In battle, Kara Wusu shed his earlier hesitation and indecision about the tribe's future, returning to the form of an Elite Warrior.
In the eyes of the Aboriginal Warriors, only those who lack ability or confidence resort to trickery. Warriors of the New Continent have always favored direct confrontations. In Kara Wusu's view, the Navy's behavior was neither courageous nor honorable.
"Ha, the same old style of the 'Golden-haired Demon'."
The "Eagle Warrior" drew two long bone daggers from his waist; though made of bone, they were sharp and gleaming as if coated with a special glaze.
The blades turned upside down.
Ssss—
The sharp bone dagger cut the arm tattooed with the eagle totem, blood splattering but not dropping as usual; instead, it transformed into reddish-yellow glowing feathers that tightly clung to Kara Wusu's arm, becoming two mutated eagle wings.
A faint eagle's shadow emerged from his body, as if he had truly become a large bird.
"Yaku—!!"
He shouted a battle cry in the Aboriginal language.
Kara Wusu leaped from the deck of the "Eagle Spirit," spreading his "wings" to ride the sudden gale, crossing over a hundred meters of sea surface in a single bound, like a predatory bird diving at the "Conch."
Before him, a swarm of venomous bees already buzzed and screeched, descending upon the deck of the "Conch." The stingers, strikingly bright yellow and obviously quite venomous, were poised to offer the sailors awaiting on deck a scorching venom.
Having a real-time battlefield reconnaissance network, Aiven had long been aware of the Native Wizard's actions. Seeing the swarm of bees overhead, he spoke calmly:
"Controlling insects through sound? This method is a bit primitive.
Bee swarms, other than communicating through contact, sound, and dance, largely rely on chemical substances (pheromones) for information transmission!"
He calmly took out a very small opaque brown glass bottle from his pocket, uncorked it, and allowed the substance inside to quickly disperse into the wind.
"Though I don't have specific bee pheromones, for a Wizard Apprentice skilled in the 'Magic Potion' branch, there's no shortage of insect repellent potions!"
Sure enough, as soon as the bottle was brought out, the swarm of bees descending densely from the sky reacted as if encountering a natural enemy, immediately rising high into the air, circling and not daring to come down.
Despite Akrawa's constant urging with his bone flute, the swarm couldn't resist the natural fear of the potion in that bottle.
Moreover, as the substance in the bottle continued to diffuse into the air, the bees kept rising higher to avoid it. Even worse, the surrounding white mist gathered again, weighing down the bees' membranous wings with moisture, greatly diminishing their flight capability, with many losing balance and plunging into the sea.
[Witchcraft: Poisonous Plague Insects] was easily broken!
At the same time.
Pausing—
Kara Wusu rode the gale like a raptor, deftly landing on the bulwark before lunging at the sailors already well-prepared on deck.
"Fire!"
Bang! Bang! Bang!...
He was met with the scorching lead bullets of the sailors commanded by Boatswain Gary.
"Yaku! Do you think I'm still that Aboriginal lacking knowledge in the tribe?"
Letting out a peculiar cry, within the widespread azure gun smoke, Kara Wusu had already deftly rolled to the side of the firearms array using an Agility Attribute far beyond human limits.
Back in the tribe, warriors from multiple clans once organized an attack against the "Golden-haired Demon."
Back then, he had witnessed the tribe's warriors charging with only thin leather shields against lead bullets, eventually falling along the path before reaching the enemy lines.
Even a strong "Eagle Warrior," if not dodging, would undoubtedly meet his end when concentrated on by firearms.
Having roamed the seas for years, he had already seen most of the "Golden-haired Demon's" weapons, and he was no longer afraid of the flintlock guns in ordinary sailors' hands.
Sss——
With arms wrapped in a fierce wind, he charged toward the flank of the formation. Two slender bone daggers gleamed coldly, leaving no doubt that these daggers could easily cut a person in half!
Clang!
Sparks flew as the footsteps of the native First Mate were blocked by Aiven's sword.
Knowing his combat abilities were quite average, Milan, as the highest-ranking major officer besides Aiven, automatically assumed command of the warship, continuing to fire at the "Eagle Spirit".
On the pirate ship.
At this time, the thick fog temporarily blown away by the gale had gathered again. The "Conch" disappeared once more from the wizard's sight, his Poisonous Plague Insects had completely lost contact, and he had no ability to summon the "Eagle Spirit" again in a short time.
Boom! Boom! Boom!...
Constantly, cannonballs fell around, riddling the pirate ship with holes. Wizard Akrawa, apart from anxiously praying in his heart for Kara Wusu to deal smoothly with those navy sailors, had no other solutions.
Although, at the Extraordinary level, he was already an Official Wizard, wizards are not omnipotent, at least he didn't have the ability to precisely attack distant enemies through hundreds of meters of fog.
Thus, it could be seen that having an Ocean Treasure meant a huge advantage at sea.
Back then, if it weren't for Aiven, using the scouting ability of Sea Birds, risking sailing in the fog to evade the "Shark Tooth Pirates", forcing them into a boarding battle, his journey might have ended there.
[Sword Style: Floating Boat!]
[Eagle's Battle Technique: Wing Strike!]
Clang! Clang! Clang!...
Without a doubt, both of them were agile experts. Aiven's longsword and Kara Wusu's bone daggers were all a whirl of sharp blade light; the sound of sword and dagger clashing seemed like one continuous roaring boom.
However, even without using "Data Visualization," with his rich experience, Aiven could easily determine that this native extraordinary's physical attributes were perhaps equivalent to an Official Knight just stepping into the Extraordinary realm.
What allowed him to contend with Aiven face-to-face in such a short time was the totem tattoo of an eagle on his body, exuding a mysterious aura.
Especially the semi-phantom wings growing from his arms which granted him a high degree of agility boost, at least Aiven admitted he didn't have the ability to fly low for hundreds of meters.
This was evidently a skill unique to some extraordinary profession, with fewer restrictions and more power than [Secret Technique: Wind Return] once used by "Iron Bone William"!
Compared to Aiven's composure, Kara Wusu, engaging with him, showed a slight change in expression.
'Besides a Wizard Apprentice on this ship, there's also such a powerful Official Knight?!'
Even though his years of pirate life had long taught him that the captain of a warship was at least an Official Knight at lieutenant colonel level. Yet, like an eagle with sharp eyes, he had long seen Aiven's very young face and the insignia of a major officer's uniform on him, all of which were just the minimum standards for a captain.
One would think his strength should be the same.
Yet, upon engaging, this young officer's swordsmanship level was simply terrifying. Had he not activated the unique ability of an "Eagle Warrior" earlier, he might have already perished under his sword in one encounter.
Even now, the situation was not optimistic. Prolonged use of his special ability would cause him to irrepressibly transform into an eagle both outwardly and inwardly, unable to revert back.
Taking advantage of a gap to dodge during a change of moves, Eagle Warrior Kara Wusu bit onto a white bone whistle hanging around his neck and blew hard.
Screech——
A sharp whistle like an eagle's cry pierced the sky. Soon, from deep in the sky, two real eagle cries echoed, seemingly in response to the bone whistle's call.
Chirp——Chirp——
Soon, Aiven's eyes pierced the fog at the ship's prow to see two magnificent eagles with wingspans of seven meters swooping down from high altitudes. These were… eagles tamed by the Eagle Warrior!
It was as if a worthy opponent had appeared, Aiven's heart raced with excitement. His own "air force" had been formed for a long time but had never formally been in use. Now it was time to let these two extraordinary eagles serve as a testing stone!
With a thought, Aiven's two black feathered frigatebird squadrons swooped down from the clouds as well.
The two squadrons, totaling six frigatebirds, broke through the clouds, coming into Aiven's view. Their iron-colored beaks and talons were full of deterrent power, with a wingspan exceeding five meters, resembling small planes.
In this era, they were indeed a veritable air force, showcasing dominance over the sky!
Compared to the opponent's two magnificent eagles…
"Chirp chirp chirp… chirp chirp chirp…"
Um, except for the rather unpleasant calls, the temperament was lacking by three points, the appearance by seven or eight levels, but in all other aspects… what a load of nonsense! Damn!
Totally defeated, alright!
Dammit, I can't tolerate such awesome entities on my battlefield!
"Take them down for me!"
