Chapter 195: Chapter 195. One final warning
Once I saw the man who made that canon jump into attack I could only slap my face.
You had a great weapon in your hands, why did you have to abandon it and attack with your sword?
And what kind of teenager is he, announcing his arrival like a hero?
But the kid did a lot of damage and I didn't want him to die in vain, so I decided to give him a helping hand.
I shot a few fireworks as I got closer to him, only for Alexa to drop some shocking news.
<Sir, this man seems to be another avatar of the System similar to Miss Merry.>
"Seriously, another one? I expected another Monster Lord but not another hero!"
How come I didn't think of that?
Maybe I'm too used to the hero getting more trouble instead of help, this is quite emberesing.
But if he's the hero that means he's a player like me, and from his fighting style I can tell he knows how to play the game very well.
I think I can leave him to deal with this group while ill go to help Siren.
After making sure that he was up for the task I turned my horse and ran towards the bar that had the secret entrance.
The streets were chaotic but it was spacious enough for my horse to travel on them.
Once I arrived at the bar, I got off my horse and opened the secret entrance.
Nobody was inside so the process was pretty easy.
I went down the stairs and arrived at a storage room, I ignored everything and got out of the building into the underworld cave.
Here the streets were empty, only those who wanted to use this chaos as an opportunity to loot decided to stay.
It was a risky decision, but their life was filled with them and today was just another day.
I ignored them and ran towards the place where there was the most noise.
The underground docs.
Once I arrived there I saw the Prince party and the General Party attacking the pirate crew that tried to flee to the iron ship.
It seems that the battle started a while ago since I saw the corpses of the crewmember here and there.
They were indeed equipped with the best armor money could buy, but they were outnumbered in quantity and quality resulting in casualties.
The only reason they didn't lose yet, was because of Captain Siren who kept everyone under control and the enemy at bay.
I couldn't wait anymore, so I took out my crossbow and loaded it with fireworks.
I really need to get the multi-shoot enchant, battles are getting more ridiculous lately.
I pressed the trigger and the firework flew at great speeds towards the General group.
*Boom
The man was blown away but not killed.
Everyone in here wore a mix of enchanted diamond and iron armor or full diamond, so the fight isn't going to be easy.
My fireworks did some damage but not as much as I'd liked to.
But I wasn't going to stop because of this, instead, I kept reloading new fireworks and shot towards the ones who dared to get close.
At one point they fired back, but my armor blocked all the arrows and the fireworks were dodged or blocked by blocks.
Unfortunately, this method didn't work for long, since they sent a big group after me.
But this wasn't over.
I quickly towered up and built a small barrier to stop the fireworks, and when they got to the base of my tower I took out my fishing road.
If Merry was here, she would've smirked at what I was about to do.
The hook was thrown and quickly caught someone who was very confused about what I was doing.
With all my force I pulled the road, dragging the iliger as well.
"Wh-whaaaaaaa!"
The man soon passed me and I waited for him to come back.
Once his momentum stopped, he began to fall, and right as he passed me I slashed at him, taking enough damage for the fall to kill him.
Before the others could figure out what just happened I threw my bait once again, catching one of the Prince man this time.
"Be careful, he's going to drag you as well, cut the string!"
Hehe, you could try that, but there's nothing able to cut that string.
This is the first glitch I found in this world, and I'm glad it's on my side.
The man tried to cut the string but had no luck, and soon he was up in the air like the last Iliger.
I tried to use this method to catch other people, but they seemed to learn their lesson and stayed far from the base of my tower.
That only resulted in a shootout with fireworks and arrows.
"Ugh, this Is going to take a while, I think it's time to Perl aw-"
*BOOM!
A huge arrow hit the defenses of the tower and exploded with force.
I took little damage, but the knockback managed to throw me off the tower.
"The Shadow Lord is here, we can finally kill him!"
The enemy morale shot through the roof and now I had to deal with a Monster Lord as well.
Another arrow was shot towards me, but I quickly dodged, exploding on impact.
"Seriously, aren't those arrows too OP?"
I'm quite in a predicament.
What is Captain Siren doing anyway, why hasn't she left yet?
I tried to look towards the crew but couldn't see them from all the obstacles in the way.
"Probably the General and the Prince keeps them in one place."
And where did the Shadow Lord hide?
"AGHHHH!"
A loud yell shook the whole cave and the Shadow Lord appeared behind the Prince soldiers without an arm.
A second later Violet appeared beside me fully visible, with a few wounds.
This is the first time she's shown herself in a battle, and I'm guessing she's the one who took the arm of the Shadow Lord, what a monster.
I couldn't see the expression of the Shadow because of his hood. But the light of its eyes was narrow and I could only assume that he was angry at Violet.
"Good job Violet!"
I only got a grunt as a response.
"He also has a monster! What are we supposed to do?"
"I don't know, ask the Prince, he has control over the Shadow Lord."
"Hey! Bag of bones, I thought there were only 2 of you, what's with that monster?"
The Prince got closer to the Monster Lord without any fear, making me raise an eyebrow impressed.
I knew he had the spawner as a hostage to control him, but I wouldn't dare talk with him like that.
The Shadow Lord seemed to be annoyed as well but didn't talk back.
"She's not one of us, I don't know where she came from or why she's with that human."
"It's not like you? Are you telling me that there are more monsters like that?!"
Everyone turned silent.
"H-hey you monster, if you'll kill the man sitting beside you, I'll promise that I'll save your spawner wherever it's hidden."
Though luck Prince, she doesn't have a spawner, and from what my scan told me, she doesn't plan on betraying me anytime soon.
Violet disappeared and appeared in front of the Prince slashing her powerful claws at him.
The armor was powerful for sure, and that's the only reason he didn't die on the spot, but the attack did a lot of damage.
"Ugh, you uncivilized beast, I'll kill you! Bag of bones catch that monster alive!"
"I can't afford to hold back for this battle."
"Then kill it, I don't care, just give me its head."
The Shadow Lord let out an audible sigh and melted into the ground before appearing behind Violet with a green arrow in his hand.
But Violet was an Enderwoman, so she quickly teleported away.
Just as they came, they disappeared battling in another part of the cave.
Not wanting to get surrounded I threw a Perl toward the ship appearing right beside the pirate crew who jumped away as they saw me.
"It's me, don't attack, I'm here to help."
"Trader! What's going on, they suddenly attacked us to steal our ship, and now the whole city is a mess, who are they and what do they want from my ship!?"
It's good to see that Siren is lively as always.
"It's not my fault that you braged so much with the guardians corpse, now thay want to get to the same place as you did."
"Then why are they attacking us, they could've hired us or even brought their own ship!"
"I don't know, we just have to defeat them and all of this would be over."
This was easier said then done, since I don't think Violet would be able defeat the Shadow Lord on her own.
"Ugh, I guess you are right, but how are we supposed to wi-"
"All of you that are hiding behind those blocks, come out or were going to blow up the cave, killing everyone who is inside."
Why shoul we care if you blow up this place, it's not like anyone in here is innocent like the civilians on the surface.
Plus, he could be bluffing.
I looked towards Siren who was as confused as me, but some of the crew members looked tense, like they were hiding something.
"You think I'm bluffing? I sent a few of my men to place TNT blocks all over the place, at my signal they would lit them up starting a chain rection. Let me demonstrate."
The Prince then shoot a firework towers the ceiling exploding in a red light.
And we all waited in silence.
BOOM!
BOOM!
BOOM!
BOOM!
Explosions we're heard all over the right side of the city, making some of the crewmember flinch.
"C-captain, I think we should give up on the ship, we can still get out alive if we leave now."
"What are you saying! Since when do you care If this place blows up, they can turn it into a crater for all I care, I'm not giving up my ship!"
But the crewmembers didn't seem to want to fight back, so the captain traied to give them some hope.
"Look, we only need to distract them for a few minutes so we could start the ship, and we have Sir Trader with us, I'm sure he'll be able to hold them in one place while we'll leave."
Hey, what about my life?
But she's right, If they could use my distraction to escape it would be for the best.
"Sorry captain, we can't do that, our families are still down here hidden in the basement. If we let them blow this place up, they could all die."
Why would you let your family here instead of running to the surface!
I guess they didn't expect this place to be effected so much...
This is not good, I have to do something otherwise they'll betray us.
I really didn't want to use this, especially when I have so many friends around me, but I need something that would kill everything in its path.
I got up and walked in the middle of the clearing where I was visible for everyone.
I placed my Ender Chest down and took some soul sand and black skulls.
The soulsand was placed in a T shape and 2 skulls were put at the end of the arms.
Right as I finished that, Violet teleported besides me looking a lot worse then before with the Shadow Lord on the other side.
"Everyone, if you don't want all of us to die, stop your attacks and leave us be!"
All eyes were on me and at what I built.
Then they started to laugh.
