Mechanical Alchemist Chapter 553: Red Robe Archmage
A few days later.
There is drizzle in the sky.
The "Troll Sea" marked with the danger level of three skulls on the sea map of the Dragon Kingdom.
When the Black Sam Pirates passed through this sea area thirty years ago, they encountered some huge Titan-blooded trolls. This monster's power is so terrifying that it can easily lift a three-masted sea-going ship with its bare hands.
It is available now.
However, they have turned into even more terrifying aberrations, and there are quite a few of them.
The Dawn Group sailed to this sea area, as if they had entered a monster's lair.
Without any warning, the monster threw stones from the island, and the battle also attracted a large number of monsters around.
The sound of artillery fire roared on the sea, resounding for dozens of nautical miles.
"Artillery support! Two rounds of fire!"
"Quick, there are monsters in the sea that have passed by. The whaling team goes into the water to kill them. Don't let the monsters damage the ship!"
"Serving team, please pay attention to attracting the newly attracted monsters from the outside, and concentrate your firepower to kill this ugly big guy first!"
"."
On the Evernight, the crew was engaged in a fierce battle.
Suddenly, the observer on the observation deck issued a urgent warning: "Be careful, the flying rocks are coming again!"
Before he finished speaking, dozens of stones with a diameter of several meters shot out from an island not far away like a heavy rain.
The roaring sound of the breaking wind reached my ears, as powerful as a shooting star.
Seeing that the rain of stones was about to hit the Evernight, Lolotta and a group of swordsmen jumped up from the deck. Everyone drew their swords in unison, and with a few swish of swords, a net of sword energy was created in the sky.
In an instant, the boulder flying over was cut into countless small pieces.
Although most of the rocks fell into the sea, some watermelon-sized rocks still hit the hull of the ship densely, banging like cannonballs.
It is simply impossible for humans to smash dozens of ten-ton stone **** together like cannonballs.
But for the eighth-level lord [Titan Corpse Demon] who is more than 300 meters away, it is just a handful of "pebbles" in the palm of his hand.
Yes, it is three hundred meters high.
That monster is even bigger than the hull of the Evernight!
On the island in the distance, Su Lun, Qian Jiao, Barrett, No. 19 and other high-ranking warriors were surrounding and killing this lord-level deformed corpse demon.
This is an enlarged version of the troll, with humanoid limbs, but its head has been deformed into a fox face full of tentacles and pustules. On the monster's belly, there is a large blood basin full of densely packed sharp teeth. In addition to opening its mouth to spit out thick acid that can easily melt steel, its belly is also like a bottomless pit, capable of releasing countless scarlet tentacles to devour everything around it. And it can still swallow cannonballs, sword energy, and all kinds of alchemy.
The battle is fierce.
For most monsters, size is directly equivalent to combat power.
The huge body gives them terrifying strength and armor-like skin.
And this is the case for this [Titan Corpse Demon]. With a body over 300 meters tall, it possesses power and almost insurmountable defense that humans simply cannot contend with.
Because the body is so huge, even if Su Lun's black sickle and thousands of sword energy slash at the layer of carrion, there will be no pain or itching.
In terms of "blood volume" alone, it is not even inferior to the eighth-level silver dragon that the Dawn Group hunted before.
Fortunately, although the monster is of a high level, its reactions are clumsy and it relies on its legs to walk. Compared with the flying dragon before, it is much easier to deal with.
As long as you are careful to avoid its attacks, it won't be a big problem.
Su Lun and the others fought fiercely and spent more than half an hour before killing the monster.
As soon as the lord monster died, the undead monsters in the nearby sea quickly dispersed.
There is a special disposal team to clean up the battlefield. Su Lun and the others returned to the ship after the battle.
Walking to the deck, Bartolo looked at the corpse in the distance, still frowning.
Not only the melancholy of revisiting old places, but also a hint of solemnity.
Su Lun walked over and asked, "Senior, have you seen anything?"
Bartolo didn't participate in the battle just now. Firstly, it was unnecessary, and secondly, No. 19's [Angel of Justice] talent had a bad feeling. Along the way, she always felt as if there was something coveting them.
Caution comes first, so Bartolo, a top combat power, was not allowed to intervene. If anything happens, there will be a backup plan.
Bartolo looked thoughtful as he listened and said: "Undead creatures are usually very intelligent. It seems a little unusual that so many monsters piled up here and attacked us."
"Yeah."
Su Lun naturally noticed this.
There is an upper limit to the density of area-type creatures. Without special reasons, these monsters will not gather together.
He asked: "Senior, do you think someone did this deliberately?"
Bartolo said: "It may not be a human being, it may be some special existence. The Kingdom of Ancient Dragons is said to be the battlefield of ancient gods, and there are too many ancient secrets buried here. Not to mention that the eruption of the Hell volcano will bring many It is normal for undead creatures from other planes to have things beyond human cognition."
"."
Su Lun frowned slightly as he listened and said nothing more.
Since they killed the aberrant monster in the Golden Sea a few days ago, there has been no stopping, and there are more and more monsters.
But if it's just a monster, it's okay. If you can fight, fight, if you can't, just run away.
I am afraid of encountering some "supernatural" existence beyond understanding.
For example, the group of monsters we encountered today always made people feel like something was wrong.
Su Lun looked at Uncle Crow on his shoulder again. This one didn't scream, which means it's not fatal yet.
You have already taken risks before coming here, and there is nothing to shrink from.
After a while, everyone took care of the corpses of the monsters, and the Evernight continued sailing.
In order to prevent some special situations, double sentries were arranged on the deck, and some precise energy fluctuation detectors were also arranged, such as "infrasonic wave detectors", "mental sensitive instruments", and "thermal energy fluctuation detectors". Mafa's research results in this area over the years have been extraordinary, and its performance is enough to replace most perception methods.
And of course Tani and his mother Friedl.
Multiple insurances almost eliminate all possibilities of being in danger for no apparent reason.
The boatmen also smeared the dragon's feces on the hull, so that some low-level monsters would not bother them from time to time.
We sailed like this until night.
After entering the ruins of the Kingdom of Ancient Dragons, in order to prevent the light from attracting monsters, the Evernight no longer lights up at night.
The night is not too bright tonight. This black sailboat is okay on the dark sea, blending into the night like a ghost.
There is already a faint gray air in the air, which is the air of hell.
It is similar to the dark spiritual power of Old Lingdun, a kind of death-type spiritual energy. Long-term inhalation may cause distortion.
But for Su Lun, this kind of spiritual energy not only has no negative impact on him, but is also very pleasant to breathe. He can now easily digest the death impurities in his aura, which is very beneficial.
So these days he has not been stuck in the cabin practicing, but often comes to hang out on the deck at night.
On the deck, the sentries all wore gas masks.
Watch him coming and say hello to everyone.
"Mr. Sullen!"
"Yeah."
Because of the battle during the day, Su Lun always felt that something was a little strange, so after wandering around for a while, he did not return to the cabin. Instead, he walked to the main mast and jumped on it.
On the thick mast, Qianjou was meditating.
The sword intention she understood was "Thundering Hell", which she understood from the Kingdom of Underworld. Now that she encountered the real aura of hell, she also felt that she had an incomprehensible understanding. And the closer you get to the core of the ruins of the Kingdom of Ancient Dragons, the laws of heaven and earth have obviously become much more perfect. This is a rare practice environment for the two of them who can digest the energy of hell.
The two of them didn't speak. They were meditating not far apart as usual.
Time passed by and it was already midnight.
The moon in the sky has been completely covered by dark clouds. The Evernight without lights seems to be in a pitch of darkness, and it is impossible to tell where is water and where is night.
With a top navigator like Tani, he was not worried about running aground on the rocks, and the Evernight was still sneaking steadily in the intended direction.
Su Lun put the rune black umbrella on his thigh, and his perception covered the entire ship.
There was only the sound of rushing water.
Suddenly, my eyes suddenly opened!
"Is someone coming?"
Su Lun was also surprised.
Just now, a strange soul wave suddenly appeared on the deck.
Even without seeing with his eyes, Su Lun now knows how to identify the souls of each of the tens of thousands of members in the group.
That’s why I immediately noticed this uninvited guest.
Discovering the abnormality, Su Lun opened his eyes and took a look at Qianjiao.
It was just a warning look, and Qianjou immediately opened his eyes alertly.
The two looked at each other, and she understood immediately, and her hand had quietly rested on the hilt of the sword.
The reason why Su Lun reacted like this was because Su Lun sensed that the soul fluctuations of the incoming person were very strong!
It was so strong that she thought it might be some kind of "soul monster" rather than a human being.
Because even Master Pierre, who met the ninth level master in Lingdun, had never had such powerful soul fluctuations.
The sudden appearance of a "person" in this sea where there is no possibility of living people makes people feel a chill down their backs no matter what the situation is.
Where does "he" come from?
What does "he" want to do?
This guy is obviously so strong, yet he still sneaks onto the boat, which is very strange.
"Hey, you came directly here?"
However, not long after, Su Lun was even more surprised to find that the guy actually came towards the main mast.
He immediately realized that this guy seemed to be coming for him?
Being able to capture his position so accurately in the dark night, Su Lun also thought of a possibility for a moment, that is, the other party can also distinguish the strength of the soul!
In the entire Dawn Group, the one with the strongest soul is Su Lun himself.
Bartolo had joked before, saying that his soul was as strong as a monster.
Su Lun thought of this and suddenly had an idea: "Is he a fellow soul cultivator?"
Sure enough, after a few breaths, the soul wave walked quietly under the main mast, and then "floated" up again.
Yes, it’s Gone with the Wind!
He floated up like a ghost without alerting any sentries or touching any sensing instruments on the ship.
Although Su Lun himself did not see the floating guy with his naked eyes, Uncle Crow on the top of the mast could see it clearly.
Uncle Crow is a bird that tells death, it can see any form of spirit body
Su Lun frowned as he looked at it, but he still planned to strike first.
When this guy jumped up, he suddenly pulled out the rune black umbrella and swung it behind him.
At the same time, there was a sound of a sharp blade coming out of its sheath. Senjo suddenly opened his eyes and slashed with his sword.
The rune black umbrella has a special effect, that is, it can hit the soul.
And Qianjo's slash can inflict fatal physical cutting damage.
Now the two of them are considered to be top professionals in the alchemy plane, and they have a tacit understanding. With perfect cooperation, the man has no possibility of dodge.
Sure enough, this raid had a miraculous effect!
The sneaky guy wanted to get closer, but as soon as he came up, he greeted him with a knife and a stick, and he had no time to react.
Su Lun didn't know why the other party used any means to maintain this "invisible" state without any trace, and even his spatial perception could detect that he didn't exist. But he didn't arouse it when he came over. In other words, "he" was not an entity in the physical sense.
Probably some kind of special magic device was used.
With such a close distance, Su Lun was sure that this was definitely a living person.
The enemy comes with malicious intent!
As long as they are human beings, they can be killed.
At this moment of sudden violence, Qianjiao's sword was one step faster than Su Lun's.
That person probably thought that his ability could ignore slashes, so even if he was attacked by a sneak attack, he didn't panic much.
Qian Jiao's sword slashed through the void, as if it had cut through the air, without cutting anything at all.
However, the intention of this sword is not to hurt the enemy, but to allow the enemy to continue to maintain this ghost-like state!
At the thousandth moment when the sword energy passed by, Su Lun's rune black umbrella followed one after another.
A magical scene took place. On the empty mast, something seemed to be hit by the rune black umbrella, and a translucent figure was immediately revealed.
Su Lun looked at it and sneered in his heart.
It was as if he had met the "Curator" for the first time and was stunned by the stick. The guy in front of him obviously didn't expect that there was a weapon that could directly draw people's souls.
As soon as the translucent figure appeared, you could immediately see with the naked eye that his expression had a "shocked" stiffness.
Taking this opportunity, the sharp sword that Qianziao had just slashed back with more than a dozen slashes, and a domineering sword flower was slashed out, immediately cutting the person into more than a dozen pieces.
"Killed?"
Su Lun's hand was still waving in the air, but his eyes narrowed slightly.
Because he clearly felt that the other person's soul collapsed, which was a sign of death.
But it shouldn’t be so easy.
Su Lun's mind was just thinking about harvesting the enemy's soul and everything would be safe. However, a bizarre scene happened in front of his eyes.
He watched as the broken soul was suddenly reunited by an incomprehensible force, and then appeared on the sea several hundred meters away.
Seeing this, Su Lun's pupils shrank suddenly: "Resurrection."
He wasn't surprised that he couldn't kill such a strong enemy in the first time. It would be nice to be able to make a sneak attack and make people suffer some losses.
But what surprised him was that this guy actually mastered such a divine technique.
Su Lun himself has been resurrected, so he didn’t know that this guy really died just now and then came back to life again!
But looking at the other party's clothes, he was not surprised immediately. He murmured to himself: "The red-clothed archbishop of the Holy Army on the plane of gods, the eighth-level great mage, no wonder he can borrow the power of the gods."
On the other hand, magicians on the plane of gods have strict hierarchies, and their rank is their status. Their robes have obvious markings.
The eighth-level great mage may not necessarily wear this kind of red robe, but the one who wears this kind of robe must be a great mage.
And a person with a red robe with gold patterns still holds a very high position in the Holy See.
At least the guy in front of him has the highest position among the people Su Lun has seen in the plane of gods!
But what Su Lun couldn't figure out was why this guy appeared in the waters of the Kingdom of Ancient Dragons?
Also, did he come alone, or was there someone else?
Su Lun squinted and looked into the depths of the night.
In any case, someone came to the door, and things didn’t seem right tonight.
Those guys in the God Plane have been severely injured so many times, so they must be somewhat sure of death this time.
Last time, three thousand-man regiments were killed. Could it be that ten or eight more came this time?
However, what Su Lun didn’t expect was that after watching for a long time, it seemed that just such a guy was here?
