“Makes sense.” The Black Night Raven ran towards the side of the ship, but instantly recalled something. She hurried to the Magic Crystal Cannon, unloading all the remaining Demon Crystals. Each cannon had more than four hundred crystals left, totaling more than eight hundred. This was the severance payment for everyone on the ship.

With the Demon Crystals tucked away in her pocket, she ran to leap off the ship into the sea. Just as she jumped over the hull, a harsh grip tightened around her neck. Luther hoisted her up with a sinister smile, bringing her eye level and growled, “Did you think you could blast us with cannons and then run away?

The Black Night Raven felt cold from head to toe. The Magic Crystal Cannon had a range of two kilometers; it was 1.3 kilometers from where they were to the security office. Less than twenty seconds passed between the moment the shell fell and the present moment. This means that the man before her had covered a distance of 1.3 kilometers in twenty seconds…

Black Night Raven wanted to cry: I was simply being a pirate. Why did I have to run into such a weirdo?

The difference in levels was too great. When Black Night Raven was escorted back, thoughts of escaping didn’t even cross her mind. She was docile as a lamb, especially when she noticed that the Magic Crystal Cannon had exploded in mid-air.

The Magic Crystal Cannon had blown up, and Negris noticed that Ange’s Dragon God Transformation had lasted twenty-three seconds.

During the twenty or so seconds of Ange’s Dragon God Transformation, a tiny point appeared in front of Ange every second. These points solidified as soon as they appeared, and did not expand. But thirteen points a second, constantly filling the space between Ange and the Magic Crystal Cannon shells.

The moment the Space Solidification disappeared, the small points in front of Ange instantly transformed into explosive fireballs. Hard enough to rip the Magic Crystal Cannon shell to pieces, it sprayed out, breaking into a burst of fireworks.

Thirteen per second, twenty-three seconds. That’s 299 explosive fireballs.

Negris was dumbfounded, “Can you believe it? I considered hundreds of methods. For instance, using the Goddess of Beauty Fist to analyze its structure, or Elemental Deprivation to strip away its elements. I could never imagine that you would use Space Solidification to gather magic. Was it really that straightforward and crude?”

Ange tilted his head, “Practical.”

“What if the magic gathered is insufficient to offset the power of the Magic Crystal Cannon? It could still explode on you.” Negris said.

“If the power is less, I won’t get hurt.” Ange replied.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

Almost three hundred explosive fireballs were enough to offset most of the shell’s power. Even if there was a little left, it wouldn’t be enough to damage the Golden Skeleton.

In this way, gathering fireballs could indeed be the most practical method.

After a while, Luther returned, escorting Black Night Raven, “Lord, it was this person’s ship that fired the Magic Crystal Cannon.”

Negris looked her up and down, doubtfully asked, “Do we know each other? Why did you ambush us?”

Although she didn’t understand why Ange could make a sound without moving his mouth, Black Night Raven obediently hoarsely replied, “I… I just wanted to blast the City Lord’s Mansion and the security office. I did not mean to ambush you.”

As she spoke, she secretly glanced at the security personnel littering the ground, muttering, “I suspect you are not amongst Drake’s people either.”

Drake doesn’t have this level of powerful person on his side. Catch a Magic Crystal Cannon barehanded? That’s got to be one of the steadfast warriors, right?

“So, it just happened that we were present during your bombardment, and we were accidentally hit in the process?” Negris asked.

Black Night Raven nodded vigorously, like a chicken pecking for grains.

Actually, Negris had the same guess. If they had indeed been the targets, they wouldn’t have been bombed with the Magic Crystal Cannon; even if Ange wasn’t capable of catching the shell barehanded, there would have been enough time before it landed for them to get out of the way.

Besides, they were only in Drake’s territory for barely half an hour. Who would be able to arrange a cannon ship that quickly to wait by the dock for them? And if the intention was to attack them, why bomb the City Lord’s Mansion first?

Based on these conclusions, Negris believed they were just unluckily involved. Kvada, he was bombed by a Magic Crystal Cannon for the first time in his life, and it was an accidental bombing?

“So, how are you planning to compensate us?” Negris asked harshly. Although she didn’t mean to target them, they were still affected. They couldn’t just leave matters as they were. It was time for compensation!

Black Night Raven’s face fell. She pulled out the eight hundred Demon Crystals she had just unloaded out of her pocket, sighing in her heart: the severance pay couldn’t be kept after all.

When Black Night Raven held up a bag of Demon Crystals, Negris almost jumped, ready to smack her. “Are you insulting us? You think you can get rid of beggars with these few crystals?”

Black Night Raven had a mournful expression, “This is all I have, there’s only this much left.”

“You are a pirate, right? How come you’re so poor? Didn’t you just launch two Magic Crystal Cannons? Each one requires several hundred Demon Crystals, right? Are you lying to us?” Negris questioned suspiciously.

Black Night Raven shook her head vehemently, “Our base was just raided, so I came for revenge. Even if our base hadn’t been raided, our normal operating capital is around two to three thousand Demon Crystals. It’s not that much more than we have now.”

“So poor. How could you afford to buy the Magic Crystal Cannons?” Negris asked.

“I stole them, stole them. Someone was smuggling, and I intercepted it. I’ve been afraid to use it until now.” Black Night Raven explained.

“Really? You’re not lying to me?” Negris asked.

“It’s true, I absolutely didn’t lie to you. I swear by the name of the Dragon God that everything I said is true.” Black Night Raven promised earnestly.

Negris’ interest was instantly piqued, “You still believe in the Dragon God?”

Black Night Raven replied, “No, but when swearing an oath, you always need a god to rely on. On these seas, swearing by the name of the Dragon God is the safest.”
