Chapter 923: The Ghost Race’s Ironclad Ship
The warriors on the warship were instantly puzzled. They had mentally prepared themselves to face a large monster, but they hadn’t expected that a ship would emerge from the mist, and it was a wooden sailing ship covered in iron armor. It definitely didn’t resemble a gigantic octopus.
Then, on the deck of the ironclad ship, a person wielding a long knife leaped over.
This person appeared much shorter and less robust than the people from the Gran Kingdom, but they seemed agile. Their skin was yellow, and they even had a horn growing from their head.
Someone couldn’t help but shout, “What is that thing? A monster?”
“No! It’s an Eastern Ghost!”
A warrior rushed out from the ship’s cabin, only to run right into the Ghost. The warrior drew out their twin-handed sword and swung at the Ghost, but the Ghost skillfully ducked under the sword and countered with their own knife. The warrior fell, blood splattering.
“Be careful! They’re strong.”
“Damn, John was taken down with just one move.”
“Watch out, more Ghosts are coming from that side.”
On the ironclad ship, Ghost warriors kept leaping over, while the soldiers of the Trembling Ice Knights on this side emerged from their cabins to confront them. Chaos ensued on the deck as both sides engaged in a chaotic melee.
In a matter of moments, the Trembling Ice Knights found themselves at a disadvantage.
The commander of the Trembling Ice Knights, the middle-aged man, led several magicians in robes out from the cabin. As soon as they appeared, he waved his hand and shot out a shard of ice.
A Ghost warrior couldn’t dodge in time and was struck in the chest, instantly freezing into an ice block.
However, as the middle-aged man was about to conjure a second ice shard, a cloth-robed Ghost appeared on the opposite ironclad ship. He didn’t look like a combatant, but rather someone knowledgeable and cultured. He pointed a finger at the middle-aged man, muttered a phrase in an unintelligible Ghost language, and then a chunk of ice was hurled towards the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man was taken aback, exclaiming, “Huh? Ghosts can use ice magic too?”
Startled by this unexpected move, he didn’t react in time. The ice chunk hurled by the opponent struck him, and he let out a muffled groan as he collapsed.
The few magicians behind him were alarmed, hastily casting their spells. Ice arrows flew chaotically, and while these magicians were more formidable than common soldiers, the cloth-robed ghosts behind the other ship were no pushovers. They summoned several more cloth-robed individuals, who also hurled ice chunks. This onslaught brought down several of the Trembling Ice knights as well.

“Damn it! These cursed Ghosts!” The injured middle-aged man struggled to get up from the ground. He was an ice magician with high resistance to ice magic. Although the ice chunk thrown by the enemy earlier was slightly different from ice magic, it undeniably harnessed the elemental power of ice from nature. It was akin to ice magic and thus, the middle-aged man survived.
As he got back on his feet, he intended to attack again. However, he realized that something seemed off.
The sudden onslaught of the ghosts from the thick fog caught them off guard and gave the ghosts the upper hand. The warriors of the Gran Kingdom were thrown into disarray. Since the Trembling Ice Knights’ tactics were devised to combat large monsters, most of the soldiers were sheltered inside the cabins. When they realized the threat wasn’t a monster and attempted to rush out, some vital areas on the deck had already been seized by the Ghosts.
In human-to-human combat, having the advantage of higher ground was crucial.
The Trembling Ice Knights were not elite soldiers; they were merely grunts who were never assigned to fight monsters. They were nowhere near the same level as the battle-hardened Ghost warriors. How could they possibly stand a chance?
Chaos ensued all around. The middle-aged man wanted to aid using ice magic, but he didn’t know whom to assist first and whom to aid afterward.
Amid his anxiousness and uncertainty, a loud “boom” resounded. The ship shuddered again, and something collided with the ship’s side from the other direction.
He quickly turned to look behind him. This time, the collision wasn’t from an enemy but from the armed merchant ship that had been trailing them.
Two young girls leaped from the merchant ship’s side. One held dual pistols, the other a long rifle, and they both had staffs strapped to their backs. Their appearance was a mix of styles, utterly perplexing.
The two girls exclaimed loudly, “We’re here to help!”
The middle-aged man urgently said, “Why are you still here? Run! Return to the harbor and inform our people. The enemy isn’t a monster; they’re Ghosts… Hurry… Go back…”
Before he could finish speaking, a Ghost warrior charged towards the two girls. Only halfway there, the girl with the long rifle suddenly raised her weapon and fired. The charging Ghost’s body immediately halted, and with a thud, they fell backwards.
The girl chuckled, “Ha, my marksmanship has indeed improved. I didn’t even expect to hit so accurately.”
The middle-aged man: “…”
The other girl, holding a short pistol, also raised her weapon and laughed, saying, “Two birds with one stone!”

She aimed her gun at a ghost warrior in front and fired with a “bang.” Interestingly, after the bullet hit the Ghost warrior, it didn’t stop. Instead, it bounced and landed on another Ghost warrior behind them. Both Ghost warriors let out a muffled groan and fell down.
“Ah, you’re cheating, hitting two at once.” The girl with the long rifle wasn’t pleased. “Watch my ultimate move! Peace Ambassador.”
She swung her long rifle forward, and with a gunshot, five Ghost warriors arranged in a straight line in front of her simultaneously fell down.
Now it was the turn of the girl with the short pistol to be unhappy. “You’re cheating, hitting so many at once. I’m going for an AOE attack too, watch carefully.”
She held her dual pistols in both hands and raised them forward. She loudly exclaimed, “Warriors of the Trembling Ice Knights in front of me, get down quickly, bullet hell is coming!”
The grunts of the Trembling Ice Knights understood her words and hurriedly lay down. However, the Ghost couldn’t understand the language of the Kingdom of Gran, so they only saw their enemies in front suddenly dropping to the ground. Confused, they thought, “Should I take this opportunity to strike them while they’re down?”
Just then, the girl with the short pistols suddenly unleashed a barrage of bullets, spreading out in a fan-shaped area in front of her. The Ghost warriors standing in this area were all hit simultaneously. They let out miserable screams and fell one after another with thuds, creating a massive pile in an instant.
Both sides, friend and foe, were utterly perplexed: “What in the world are these two women?”
