Mechanical Alchemist Chapter 574: Snake Sea Natural Disaster

Chapter 574 Snake Sea Natural Disaster

The Dawn Regiment traveled westward and crossed the territory of the three-headed dragon bird.

During this period, they also encountered attacks from several groups of three-headed birds, but after the members of the Dawn Group probably hunted thousands of them, those strange birds realized that these humans in front of them were not weak food, and they were just here to die. Much less.

The rest of the voyage was much smoother.

The sea breeze is blowing and the sun is warm.

There was a faint smell of blood floating on the deck after the battle. Everyone in Dawn was busy dealing with the traces and smells left by the previous battle and preparing for the next battle.

At this moment, Su Lun sat on the mast and looked into the distance.

Different from the past, he is now wearing a monocle on the orbit of his right eye.

This is a cursed object that he rarely uses now - [Robert's monocle].

These glasses were originally used to cast real illusions and cause mental damage to the enemy.

But the level is not too high, and it is not very useful in the battles of high-level professionals, so Su Lun rarely used it before.

But now he has developed another use for his glasses, which is to create illusions and then release them like projections to confuse the enemy.

His current mental strength can completely ignore the cursed properties of this monocle and can construct an almost perfect fantasy projection.

At the moment, he was looking at the place one nautical mile in front of the Evernight, where a huge black-sailed warship was sailing leisurely.

This is the phantom projection of the Evernight.

Although it is an illusion, the details of the ship, the busy people on the deck, and even the waves left by the ship on the sea are all very real.

Without special perception methods, you will definitely be misled.

The body of the Evernight where Su Lun is located has activated the alchemy array of the stealth coating. The light-absorbing coating absorbs the sunlight and makes it invisible.

It is unlikely that this method could escape the perception of a high-level magician.

But because the distance is very subtle, it is a very good insurance.

After Su Lun's mental power has skyrocketed, his soul perception can cover several kilometers nearby. This perception distance cannot be reached by even the vast majority of eighth-level great magisters.

So if the enemy wants to ambush and gets too close, Suellen will find out in advance.

But if they look too far away, they will be misled by the illusion.

Su Lun is familiar with almost all the tactics of the magic army on the plane of gods, and he feels that his illusion may have miraculous effects.

The sky-high **** volcano is still at the end of the field of vision, and this is already the core area of ​​the Dragon Kingdom ruins.

The surrounding sea is no longer endless blue, but more and more islands have appeared.

On the chart, the Dawn Group has entered a highly dangerous area.

In the communicator, Tani was reporting the situation of their current route: "Everyone, be careful, we are about to enter the Parrot Islands ahead. There may be an overlord-level Kraken [Titanson Anaconda] marked on the chart, be careful Foreign objects in the water are approaching"

"Okay!"

The members heard about it and made some targeted preparations one after another.

Fighting is a daily routine for everyone.

On the mast, Su Lun was looking into the distance, maintaining the illusion ahead.

The Dawn Regiment now has a mature command and operation system, and he does not need to worry about it.

But the more he sailed over, the more he felt an inexplicable sense of crisis in his heart.

Su Lun does not think this is an illusion.

After understanding the Law of Death to his current level, he will be very sensitive to certain causal connections that can lead to death.

His prediction of death far exceeds that of most professional prophets in the perception system.

But the current situation is that this sea area is full of unknown risks. As long as you continue to sail, there will be dangers.

So he was not sure where the sense of crisis came from.

This situation is like walking on thin ice. You can't predict which step will lead to falling into the ice cave. You can only pay full attention.

The crow on his shoulder remained quiet, which gave Su Lun a sense of peace of mind.

Because they had planned their route in advance, they are currently sailing on the Parrot Islands, which is marked with a three-star (★★★) level of danger on the chart.

Even if you encounter a monster attack, the danger level on the sea chart will be followed.

It is estimated to be below level nine.

Not too fatal.

However, without warning, a bright light like a meteor fell from the sky.

In a thousandth of an instant, the light bullet penetrated the illusion of the Evernight ahead and exploded into a huge wave hundreds of meters high on the sea.

The light bomb still twisted and heated the space, burning a big hole on the sea surface, and filled the sky with white mist.

The attack came too suddenly.

Su Lun recognized the origin of this magic at a glance and shouted in his heart: "Demigod-level forbidden spell, [Light of Divine Punishment]!"

That beam of light is actually a sub-god-level magic?

Su Lun himself may be able to teleport away from this forbidden spell that is approaching the speed of light, but the Evernight will definitely suffer a devastating blow.

Seeing the huge wave caused by the magic in front of him, he was very happy in his heart: "It's so dangerous!"

The more powerful the magic, the more chanting is required to prepare, and the longer it takes for the magic to gather, and the process is quite dynamic. In order not to be discovered, the enemy must be released from a very long distance.

Su Lun was also lucky to have created an illusion, otherwise the blow just now would have been directed at the Evernight, and the consequences would have been disastrous.

Seeing that the fantasy of the ship ahead was pierced by a single blow, the eyes of the busy crew members on the Yongye also froze, and the movements of their hands stopped. The sound of swallowing saliva filled the air.

A scalp-exploding death crisis hit my heart belatedly.

Even the high-ranking warriors from Qianjou Yiyi changed their expressions suddenly.

Because no one of them was absolutely sure that they could avoid the blow just now.

However, it’s not over yet!

Before anyone could react, two more beams of light bombs hit the same location.

The Forbidden Magic was released three times regardless of the cost. It seemed that those guys from the God Plane wanted to completely eliminate the Dawn Group at once.

But it is expected.

The shock wave caused by the forbidden curse set off huge waves on the sea, and the Evernight's stealth coating also showed a vague outline in the shock wave.

Everyone in the Dawn Group did not dare to feel lucky.

Because they knew that after the enemy found out that they had not sunk them, they would definitely have a back-up plan!

In a very short period of time, the staff of the Dawn Regiment calculated the exact location of the magic release, and the various battle channels immediately became noisy.

"The enemy is at eleven o'clock, eight nautical miles away!"

"The gun on the left side of the ship is calibrated and fires a covering salvo! The No. 3 main gun [T1 shock bomb] is loaded and fired! The close-in defense gun [magic interference bomb] fires continuously!"

"Change the course and increase the distance"

"."

The Eternal Night reacted immediately. The battleship moved away from the magic release direction, and its artillery fired tongues of fire.

In an instant, the sound of shells was deafening, and shells were flying all over the sky.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"."

There was a continuous sound of artillery fire.

Artillery has a longer range and higher firing efficiency than magic. It is also a weapon against the magician army.

Keeping distance is the best response to combat.

After just a few rounds of artillery fire, a large-scale explosive mushroom cloud appeared in the northwest coordinate sea area in an instant.

But the magicians in the plane of gods were obviously beyond their reach, and no magic fluctuations occurred again.

Su Lun looked at the fire in the distance, his eyes narrowed, and he was not optimistic in his heart.

The enemy does not have a better ship than the Evernight, so it is unlikely that a large force will catch up.

If a few people really come after them, the Dawn Group will not be afraid.

The enemy obviously knows this too.

However, since they took action, they must have some other assurances.

This demi-god-level forbidden spell is very powerful, but it is definitely not everything!

As expected.

At this moment, Tani issued a warning through the communicator: "Everyone, be careful. The fish in the sea said that there are many monsters appearing in the northwest!"

As soon as he finished speaking, dense soul fluctuations appeared in Su Lun's perception.

He had previously speculated that those in the plane of gods would control monsters and sea monsters to attack, but it was not a surprise.

But when he sensed the density of the monsters, he had a slightly different expression: "Why are there so many?"

In the distance is a vast expanse of white water vapor, and it is impossible to see clearly what is on the sea with the naked eye.

But Su Lun clearly sensed the dense fluctuations of souls, as dense as a honeycomb, one next to the other, countless.

However, what surprised Su Lun was that most of these soul fluctuations were very weak, probably at the level of second- and third-level monsters.

"What kind of monster is it?"

Su Lun was very puzzled.

However, the speed of those monsters was even faster than that of the Evernight. As they got closer, he also discovered that there were some powerful beings of the seventh or eighth level mixed among them.

Not long after, the monster rushed out of the fog. Su Lun took a closer look and realized that it was a dense group of snakes.

Countless venomous snakes surged over the sea like a tidal wave, overlapping, rolling, and squirming. The black mass was so dense that it made people's hair stand on end.

And those soul waves that Su Lun sensed were powerful beings were actually snake-haired succubi!

In myths and legends, Gorgons can control venomous snakes, and their hair itself can turn into billions of venomous snakes.

This kind of scene where hundreds of millions of snakes are out in force is also called the "Sea of ​​Snakes Natural Disaster"!

Like locusts passing through, all living things are wiped out wherever they pass.

This is the legendary terrifying combat power that can kill gods.

Seeing the scene in front of him, Su Lun had seen another legendary disaster.

Everyone in the Dawn Group was also shocked.

"Why are there so many **** snakes? It gives me goosebumps."

"Hey, am I dazzled? There seems to be a 'woman' among the snakes?"

"."

Su Lun heard that everyone hadn't realized what it was, and wanted to remind him, but Kaitou Kit suddenly spoke and screamed strangely through the communicator: "That's the Gorgon! Be careful, don't Look into those Gorgon eyes!"

This guy has suffered from petrifying light before, so he doesn't know how powerful this monster is.

Tani's mother, Friedel, also issued a stern warning immediately, shouting with a slightly frightened tone: "Everyone, be careful, be sure to keep your distance. Even if the top-level Gorgon doesn't look directly at it, Its eyes will be affected by the petrified light. To be able to control such a huge group of snakes, there must be an eighth-level Gorgon among them!"

As the only person in the Dawn Group who has been petrified, how could she not know the danger?

It was the "Snake Sea Natural Disaster" that destroyed the entire Naga tribe and dozens of intelligent tribes near Rainbow Island.

This snake disaster was like a plague, leaving her with an indelible memory of terror.

Eighth level?

Even Su Lun frowned when he heard this.

The eighth-level Gorgon can almost be said to be the top creature on this plane.

But seeing the Gorgon, Su Lun was a little confused.

He knew that people from the plane of gods cooperated with Gorgons, but before, on the outskirts of the Silver Dragon King's capital Eklensa, a suspected eighth-level Gorgon was transformed into Medusa after completing the trial. Was Helen killed?

What's going on here now?

What is the situation with Queen Helen of Medusa and the Gorgon tribe?

The island marked with the Gorgon on the chart was just a day's sail away. Because they were unsure of the risk, Su Lun and the others deliberately avoided that direction, but they encountered it anyway.

However, there is no point in thinking about this right now.

Su Lun also closed his eyes, using Uncle Crow's shared vision to watch the dark tide of snakes chasing towards the Evernight.

In the communicator, Dora, the leader of the mechanical regiment, also intensively issued bombardment instructions according to the coordinates pointed out by Su Lunzhi: "The first and second-tier artillery continued to suppress fire, and the third-tier artillery loaded [Alchemy Scattered Bombs]. Cover scatter! Fifteen degrees east by north, main gun No. 4 on deck, fire!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"."

The Evernight's firepower was at full blast, and all kinds of alchemical bullets were poured out as if they were free of charge.

This kind of snake tide can also be regarded as a kind of legion war. The larger the number, the less room there is for dodge.

You don’t even need to aim deliberately. When the cannonball falls, it will inevitably explode into **** snake segments in the black tide of snakes on the sea.

Hundreds of artillery can kill hundreds of thousands of low-level poisonous snakes every second.

However, the expression on Su Lun's face was not relaxed at all.

Through Black Crow's vision, he saw that even with the dense firepower coverage of the Dawn Regiment, the number of snakes chasing after them not only did not decrease at all, but became more and more.

And the low-level poisonous snakes are okay. Just in terms of quantity, even if they catch up, it won't be a big problem.

The troublesome thing is the Gorgon hidden among the snakes.

Even if Su Lun reported the accurate coordinates, the cannonball was accurately fired.

However, the alchemical shells of the main cannon, which could severely damage the eighth level, were all petrified in the gray light surrounding the bodies of those Gorgons!

“The Gorgon’s divine talent [Petrified Curse] is really unexplainable.”

Su Lun frowned when he saw this.

This is what worries him. Only one of the previous antidote to the petrification curse has been used. If you can't solve the petrification problem, you definitely can't have a head-to-head confrontation with the Gorgon.

And the tricky thing is, even now he doesn't understand the principle of this magical level "Petrification Curse".

If you can’t understand it, you can’t find a way to crack it.

The Yongye can only fight and evacuate all the way.

While fighting, Tani issued a warning again: "A large number of monsters have also appeared in our southwest!"

Su Lun looked again and saw an endless wave of snakes also appeared in the other direction of their retreat.

It looked like a premeditated interception.

The Dawn Regiment did not dare to confront them head-on, so they had no choice but to change their course and avoid being surrounded.

However, this choice to change course made Su Lun keenly aware that something was wrong, and he thought in his mind: "It seems that these Gorgons are driving us in a specific direction?"

This is a very common method whether it is legion tactics or hunting monsters in nature.

Multiple ambushes leave a mouth open and drive the prey in a specific direction.

Su Lun doesn’t think this is a coincidence.

He immediately used the communicator to notify: "Tani, the sensing team, please pay special attention to sensing to see if there is any danger ahead of our route."

A response came immediately from the communicator: "Yes!"

After a while, a response came from the communication: "Mr. Su Lun, nothing unusual was found."

Even Tani and his mother's perception methods didn't detect anything.

However, this lack of situation made Su Lun feel even more cautious.

But those Gorgons seem to have no fear, because if you don't follow their route to escape, you will have to deal with the tide of snakes head-on.

In this situation, it can be said that even the ninth level will have to die here.

Even the Dawn Regiment currently only has one way to escape via teleportation.

However, [Ouroboros Time and Space Circle], the escape card, Su Lun did not intend to expose the related abilities too much unless it was absolutely necessary.

But looking at the current situation, there is probably some fatal danger waiting for them ahead.

For a moment, Su Lun was a little hard to make a choice: "Is there something more dangerous than the 'Snake Sea Natural Disaster' ahead?"

He was also a little confused.

Just these Gorgons and snakes are already dominant in this sea area.

What could be more powerful than them?

Not long after I put down the communicator, suddenly, a strong soul wave appeared in my soul perception.

It seems that some secret space method was used to teleport to a distance of a hundred meters behind the Evernight.

"Seventh level Gorgon!"

Su Lun had a stern expression.

Can the Gorgon teleport?

It is most likely the method of magicians from the plane of gods.

In the view shared by the black crows, the Gorgon moved over in an instant, and its head full of snake hair suddenly released a wide range of petrifying light towards the Evernight.

Although this distance is not enough for the Gorgon to petrify anyone who does not look directly into its eyes, the moment the light shines on it, the entire Eternal Night seems to have been cast a "slowing light" and its speed immediately slows down. down.

However, the reaction of everyone in the Dawn Group was not slow.

The moment the Gorgon released the petrifying light, a frost flower sword energy suddenly slashed out.

With a "swish" sound, blood splattered everywhere.

The head covered with ferocious snake hair was thrown into the sky.

A seventh-level Gorgon has expired.

But these Gorgons are afraid that they know nothing about human society, and naturally they don't know that anyone in the Dawn Group can kill them with one sword.

To get so close is to die.

But when Su Lun saw this, he was 100% sure that the purpose of these Gorgons was to drive them to the southeast, to the unknown sea area marked as "Mist Pattern" on the chart.

"Can't continue sailing."

At this moment Su Lun has made a decision in his heart.

His intuition told him that even if his trump card was exposed, he could never continue sailing along with the enemy's plan.

Otherwise, if you delay any longer, you may encounter a more fatal blow than the previous [Light of Divine Punishment].

However, just when he was about to ask the crew to activate the space alchemy array on the ship, and then put the Yongye into the small void world to escape, suddenly, a strange voice came from the sea of ​​consciousness: "There is a sleeping person in the sea to the southeast of you The sea monster Sethus in the sea will be awakened by human breath and if it passes by, you will definitely die."

Spiritual communication!

When Su Lun heard this, he immediately discovered the person who sent the message based on the direction of spiritual power transmission.

Holding the black umbrella in his hand, and sensing it again, he immediately identified the soul fire. It turned out to be "Helen", the Queen of Medusa, whom he had had some interactions with before? !

Why is she here?

Why are you reminding me?

Countless question marks suddenly appeared in Su Lun's mind.

But no matter what the other party’s motives were, what Helen said was exactly what he had guessed.

There is fatal danger in the southeast!
