Mechanical Alchemist

Chapter 382 North Sea Giant Monster

In naval combat, the best use is artillery.

Especially when there is a gap in equipment and hardware between the two sides, the dominant side can use artillery to defeat the enemy at a long distance, thereby minimizing battle losses.

Coincidentally, artillery control is a compulsory subject for students of the "Royal War College of Lu Ying".

The professional soldiers that Barrett brought to the jury were all students of the Royal Academy, and almost all of them were certified "senior gunners" and "super gunners".

So much so that the three battleships of the Dawn Regiment fired a hundred artillery salvos, and the artillery shells seemed to have precision guidance, covering the five pirate ships, including the "Pulstula" a few nautical miles away, with a very small error.

Such firepower can directly sink the enemy in just a few rounds.

Don't even think about a pick-up battle.

And Su Lun also guessed that there must be masters on the enemy ship.

After all, it was said in the intelligence that a heavy treasure was escorted on the Pulsatilla.

Therefore, artillery is also the most suitable means of testing.

It would be best if it could be solved with cannonballs.

Before the war, Su Lun considered various possibilities.

He felt that after firing the cannon, the enemy would most likely choose to flee. After all, after chasing after so many days, there must be some special acceleration device on those pirate ships.

Unexpectedly, the next moment when the cannon sounded, the scene that made everyone in the Dawn regiment drop their jaws happened.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"."

The roar of artillery fire was deafening.

Su Lun stood on the deck, squinting his eyes slightly, watching the shells smashed towards the local ships.

Some shells landed in the sea, blasting waves more than ten meters high; some hit enemy pirate ships, blasting cracks in the sails, masts, and wooden bodies of the ships.

The enemy has a total of five ships, all of which are densely packed together, which was originally the best target to attack.

But a strange scene happened before.

The shells were normal on three of the ships, the breakdown of the penetration, the explosion of the explosion.

But when it hit two of the ships, the cannonball was stopped by an invisible barrier, and bursts of air-blasting ripples visible to the naked eye exploded in the air!

Looking at this scene, everyone in the Dawn Regiment was shocked.

Barrett seemed to recognize something, and immediately came a warning: "No, there may be seventh-order professionals on the enemy ship!"

Su Lun's face changed suddenly.

When he looked at the priestesses of the Agaphanon Temple just now, he vaguely felt that something was wrong.

Under normal circumstances, there are at most Tier 6 professionals in this escort team, which are "top match".

It may be hard to resist the attack of a hundred artillery pieces, which is definitely not something that a sixth-order professional can do!

Su Lun immediately realized that there might be someone with a sensitive identity on the other side's boat!

His mind flashed, and he immediately guessed something: "Could it be the "Princess Frostmoon" from Marfa, or a big man in the temple? "

If it is a big pirate of the North Sea Fleet, it is not hidden at all.

It is possible for the people of the temple.

But now in the entire Beihai, there are top experts who need to hide their whereabouts, and the most likely one is that Princess Stiga!

With this thought, Su Lun immediately understood something, and said to himself: "What a good way. The information on the escort of the 'Pulstine' was deliberately leaked, and people thought it was a plan to divide the troops. As a result, people were really mixed in the escort fleet!"

The Princess Stiga used this hand to successfully avoid the "God Painter" Van Gogh.

The masters who wanted to assassinate her were attracted by the Royal Mechanical Guard Corps, so that she could leave the city-state of Moros without knowing it.

But why is she here?

Su Lun vaguely felt that the problem seemed to be a bit big.

I thought it was an ordinary interception, but I didn't expect to intercept a "big fish".

However, the reason is that nothing matters.

Meeting on a narrow road, there is only one battle.

He ordered directly: "Continue the shelling! Everyone is ready to fight!"

Now the situation is that since they met, no matter what the situation is, the enemy and they will not be soft on each other.

Following Su Lun's order, the second round of ammunition was quickly reloaded, and within a short period of time, the muzzle flashed again.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"."

The artillery fire exploded incessantly.

Although Su Lun didn't see what the "sacrificial sacrifice" was for, since those people would rather be shot than run away, it means that the sacrifice is very important and cannot be interrupted.

What the enemy wants to do is what the Dawn Regiment wants to destroy!

What's more, even a seventh-order professional, under the salvo of artillery, is absolutely impossible to resist for a long time.

Obviously, the enemy could not let the Dawn regiment continue to bombard it.

At this moment, the black crow in the sky also quacked.

Su Lun realized that the danger was approaching, his eyes were like electricity, and he scanned everything on the sea.

Almost at the same time, Tani also rushed to report in the communicator: "Everyone, be careful, there is a huge sea monster attacking us in the sea! It seems to be the legendary 'North Sea Giant Kraken'!"

"Sea monster?"

Naturally, Su Lun has also heard the legend of the "North Sea Giant Monster" that has been circulating in the North Sea.

It is said that there is a huge tentacle monster in the deep sea. It has a huge body as large as an island and can easily drag a large warship into the sea.

Su Lun's expression sank, and he shouted loudly: "Give me the siren! Captain Barrett, Sister Qianjo, Dr. Banks, you all beware of the enemy's seventh-order beheading."

Thousands of people responded: "Okay!"

When encountering top professionals, the group has already made plans.

The atmosphere on board was tense, but orderly.

With that said, Su Lun jumped onto the side of the ship and looked into the sea.

With his eyesight, he could faintly see a huge dark shadow swimming toward their battleship, and the waves on the sea also churned.

The time was imminent, and Su Lun, the double surgeon, pinched it and shouted softly, "Profit! Unlock!"

The eight-armed spider spear was revealed behind him, and after changing the Warlock Seal, dozens of glass jars appeared out of thin air.

As soon as the mouth of the glass jar was opened, heads of mechanical octopuses fell into the water.

In this battle, Su Lun did not dare to be careless at all. He originally thought he would not use so many mechanical octopuses, but now he has thrown them all into the sea.

The tentacles of the mechanical octopus are more than ten to twenty meters wide, which is far worse than that of the behemoth in the sea.

But luckily enough.

Fifty mechanical octopuses descended into the water, and they all wrapped around them.

At this time, because the deep sea monster was close to the sea, Su Lun also saw its true appearance clearly.

This is really a super big octopus.

[North Sea Monster Kraken]

Detailed explanation: The sixth-order overlord-level deep-sea giant monster; the ancient mythological bloodline, the giant titan sea beast; the body is 180 meters long and weighs more than 370 tons; it has powerful tentacles and suction cups, and controls the power of the water element. Long-distance water blade jetting ability; slime is highly corrosive; the skin is flexible and has a power attenuation domain layer, which can make it resistant to most conventional physical attacks;

Su Lun looked at the identified information and narrowed his eyes slightly.

He has always wanted to find the big octopus that has been passed down from generation to generation in the mouths of Roman fishermen, but he didn't expect to encounter it here.

This giant Kraken is almost Wudi's in the sea, and this sea monster alone can easily sink the three battleships of the Dawn Regiment.

That huge body, even if the black sickle wants to cut, there is no way to cut it.

If there is no restraint, the Dawn regiment will really suffer a big loss.

Unfortunately, there is Su Lun's mechanical octopus army.

Before the "North Sea Monster" approached the three battleships on the sea, the Mechanical Octopus Corps quickly swam over.

Even though Su Lun reacted so quickly, a tentacle that was more than thirty meters long and full of terrifying suckers rolled out of the sea. He smashed into the sea without being able to touch the ground, and the huge waves raised almost didn't overturn a battleship directly.

He used the spider spear to firmly control his body on the deck, and quickly surrounded and killed the mechanical octopus he controlled.

In order to better control the mechanical octopus army, these days Su Lun has also specialized in studying the physiological structure of octopuses, and he doesn't know much about the mode of power exertion of this creature. They are all of the same species, and they are both good at strangulation. Seven or eight mechanical octopuses were wrapped around a tentacle, and in a blink of an eye, the huge head was wrapped tightly.

Although the mucus on the body of the "North Kraken" is highly corrosive, Su Lun's hand-painted runes and coating layers for the mechanical octopus also came in handy during this time. In a short period of time, the enchanted coating of the mechanical octopus is not so easy to be corroded and worn.

I don't want to kill this behemoth, but at least I can trap it.

In this way, before the giant sea-monster could emerge from the sea, it was pushed into the sea by dozens of mechanical octopuses and tossed, unable to succeed.

There were fierce battles under the sea, and turbulent waves were also set off on the sea.

The three warships of the Dawn Regiment were swaying in the waves. Fortunately, several lieutenant commanders in the gun bay had enough experience in naval battles, and the artillery never stopped.

Although the hit rate is a little bit worse, the hundred and ten artillery can always hit a lot in one round.

The high-precision characteristics of the Marfa military artillery were also brought into full play in this war.

At this distance, the enemy cannot organize any effective counterattack at all.

After only a few rounds of artillery fire, the enemy's five pirate ships, except for the two that were intercepted by barriers, the other three had been damaged by the artillery, and they slowly sank with burning flames.

The sea was full of pirates who fell into the water, and the screams and screams were drowned in the waves.

Not only Su Lun and the others were caught off guard by accidentally bumping into a "big fish".

On the other hand, the "Princess Frostmoon" Skadi and his party on the "Pulpitus" were even more stunned.

Inexplicably, three ships came, and it was enough to fire when they met. Now, even the "North Sea Monster" didn't sink them?

The sound of cannonballs breaking into the wind was incessant, and the explosion sounded into one piece.

When Princess Stiga saw this scene, her face became very dignified, and she asked, "What's the matter, why didn't 'Kraken' sink their ship!"

She is very aware of the strength of the deep sea monster. This kind of monster is almost Wudi's in the sea, and it is not something that a few wooden boats can resist.

But now, is it useless?

A subordinate quickly reported: "His Royal Highness, those guys have a special method to control the Kraken. Depending on the situation, it seems to be some mechanical octopus."

"The man of Duke Raphael?!"

Hearing this, Princess Stiga's face was solemn.

Her first reaction was to assassinate.

The enemy has prepared "targeted" means and must have detailed information.

Only then did Stika understand that the danger of the original prophecy refers to the present.

At this moment, Merdis, the "King of Thieves" on the side also looked solemn and said, "Your Highness, we don't have any advantage in the artillery battle, and we will definitely not be able to continue like this. I will find a way to kill them. Otherwise, our situation will be would be very bad."

The energy barrier that blocked the shells was released by him. Without him, the two ships would have been sunk long ago.

As soon as these words came out, a priestess from the Temple of Agapanon was shocked, and she ignored the etiquette and quickly interjected: "But the sacrifice has not been completed, and the 'Sea King' has not enjoyed the sacrifice, so we have given up all our previous efforts! If the sea festival is interrupted in the middle, it will bring unforeseen terrifying consequences to you and the entire Roman!"

Hearing this, Merdis snorted coldly: "I am employed by Emperor Marfa, not your Romans. What does your sacrifice have to do with me?"

This said, the domineering pressure of the seventh-order powerhouse makes people breathless.

Hearing this, the priestess looked anxious, but did not dare to speak again.

She could only turn her head to look at Princess Stika.

Unfortunately, Princess Stiga had a gloomy face, but did not speak.

Because she is very clear in her heart, even if she is as strong as a seventh-order professional, it is absolutely impossible to carry the artillery attack for a long time.

To protect the two ships, not to mention the consumption of spiritual power is very fast. If you really want to consume a lot of spiritual power in this kind of thing, at that time, her situation will be very dangerous.

Although Stiga also knew that the interruption of the sacrifice would be very bad, she guessed that it was an "assassination" against her.

Compared with life, which is more important and which is more important, one can immediately decide.

Thinking of this, Stika said: "Mr. Merdis, be careful."

Merdis immediately understood, "Okay!"

Another layer of meaning of this sentence is that if you can't do anything, protect me first.

Having said that, the "Top Ten Legendary Bounty Hunters" put away the domain barrier, stepped on it, and jumped onto the sea.

Seeing this, the priestess on the side lost her blood in an instant: It's over.

The masters of the Dawn Regiment are all on the deck, always paying attention to the situation of the enemy warships in the distance.

At this moment, everyone watched the energy shields on the three ships suddenly disappear, and a figure crossed the sea and was attacking them at a high speed.

The observer on the mast immediately drank: "The enemy is coming! Everyone be careful."

Su Lun gave an order: "Keep firing and sink those two ships!"

At the same time, Barrett, Chijo and Dr. Banks jumped into the sea and charged towards the figure.

The professional on the opposite side was wearing a black cloak, although he couldn't see his face clearly, but after he set off, a phantom figure of a sheep, a snake, and a lion appeared behind him.

"Second solution's mythical talent [A-044-Chimera]!"

Su Lun looked at the vision and immediately recognized the talent, and even guessed the identity of the person who came.

This kind of talent is already rare, the second solution, or the seventh rank, so it can only be one person.

That is "King of Thieves" Carlo Merdis, one of the "Top Ten Legendary Bounty Hunters"!

Su Lun felt bad in his heart, and immediately sent a warning to everyone through the communicator: "Be careful, that's Merdis the "King of Thieves"! "

He really did not expect that a robbery that he thought was very ordinary would meet such a famous top powerhouse.

Now the strength of the Dawn regiment is not weak, but the high-end combat power is still worse.

Although there is a fighting force, if you hit it head-on, you will definitely lose a lot.

But when this legendary bounty hunter appeared here, Su Lun was 100% sure that on the opposite boat, it was Marfa's Princess Frostmoon!

"No, the other party may not understand what happened now. If Princess Frost Moon was on the boat, she would definitely think it was an assassination."

Suddenly, Su Lun thought of something, and a plan flashed in an instant.

If that's the case, maybe you don't need to hit it hard!

At this time, Su Lun held the black sickle in his left hand, and took out the [Cronus' Bow of Curse of Time] in his right hand.

He is very self-aware, and she can't help much in this level of combat. Only these two forbidden items can bring a certain threat to the enemy.

The battle is imminent.

"King of Thieves" Merdis looked at the three people on the other side's boat, and first smiled contemptuously: "It doesn't even condense the domain, and it's not strong."

There is no cohesive field, which means up to the sixth-order level.

This kind of enemy, three or five, is not a threat.

But the next second, when he looked at the golden body of the Rakshasa woman rising behind Qiantiao, he was instantly stunned. Like a ghost, he blurted out: "Sanjie [Rakshasa Girl], how is this possible! How can someone in this world really realize the talent of Sanjie?"

Looking at the thunderclouds condensed by the "Thunder Hell" in the sky and the sky-rocketing sword energy, Merdis frowned. He found that he actually felt a hint of danger in a professional who had lowered his rank?

At the same time, he turned to look at the man who had transformed into a giant ape, and recognized it: "Barrett, how could this guy appear here? "

And Dr. Banks's method was even more strange. He jumped into the sea, and the huge sea seemed to be poisoned, and it became pitch black. Above the large black water, the seabirds fell one after another, and even the mosquitoes died.

At this point, it seems that the case will be solved immediately.

On the boat in the distance, Princess Stiga also recognized Barrett, and immediately understood that these people were the "mysterious forces" that made noise in the city-state of Moros that night.

In just a split second, several people collided.

Even if it is one against three, Merdis has the upper hand.

As soon as his "empty domain" opened, whether it was sword energy, poison, or power hammering, the damage to him was very limited.

Compared to the three in front of him, he was more afraid of the guy on the boat in the distance holding a bow and a sickle.

At this moment, Su Lun was standing on the bow of the boat, and the [Bow of Time] had been drawn.

However, instead of aiming at Merdis, the "King of Thieves", he aimed his bow at the cloaked man surrounded by the few people on the "Pulstine" in the distance.

He knew very well that the three of Barrett could hold on for a while, but there was absolutely no chance of winning.

If it drags on, the situation of their dawn regiment will only get worse.

The only advantage of the Dawn regiment now is that the other party does not know their true situation.

"Continue the shelling! Sink them as soon as possible!"

"Yes!"

There is also good news that the members of the Dawn Regiment are very powerful. The artillery on the three battleships did not stop, and they directly sank the last two remaining battleships of the other enemy.

Su Lun didn't hesitate. After pulling the bow, he shot an arrow directly.

"The Arrow of Time" can ignore most defenses and hit the human body.

In front of Princess Stiga, who was blocked by a guard, she was drained of her life by the light arrow and turned into a mummified corpse.

Looking at the corpse beside her, Stiga turned pale with fright. Where did she not recognize the famous longbow of Lu Ying's military intelligence service——【Cronus' Curse of Time Bow】?

Moreover, what is even more frightening is that just after this arrow came, the second arrow followed one after another!

A forbidden object originally could not make Stika so shocked.

But the law of time, there is almost no means to resist.

Seeing another subordinate of herself die, the unknown in her heart turned into fear in an instant: "How is it possible, why wasn't that guy cursed?!"

And when she looked from a distance, the guy on the opposite deck had drawn the longbow expressionlessly, ready to fire the third arrow.

Calm and almost numb.

To avoid the eyes of Lu Ying's spies, Princess Stiga can't bring Marfa's masters around.

It is not easy to get a "Legendary Hunter". The rest of the fourth-order guards could not give her the slightest sense of security at this moment.

A forbidden object without a cursed backlash is just so unreasonable.

Su Lun also has [Master Archery Mastery].

Even if the guards around Princess Nastyka tried their best to avoid it, it was inevitable.

Although Su Lun's heart hurts to consume [Sand of Time] and only kill two minions, he also fires two arrows in a row.

It was this unhesitating aura that frightened Marfa's people and caused Merdis, the "King of Thieves", to throw a rat.

The legendary bounty hunter didn't know, and if he continued to entangle with the three of Barrett, the Princess Stiga he protected would die on the spot.

This guy is also a strong group. Rao is Barrett and the three forcibly dragged him to keep him from getting close to the sea boat, but after he blocked the combined attack of the three people with one blow, the Warlock Seal condensed, and the eight lights suddenly lit up under his feet. Star Array: "Flame Profound Truth, Holy Fire Finger!"

He suddenly condensed a long sword with hot white light in his hand and pointed at Su Lun.

Su Lun watched the lightsaber pointed at him, and his scalp immediately went numb.

The murderous aura of a seventh-order professional can be clearly felt even from a few nautical miles away.

At the same time, he also understood that this guy is willing to accept Marfa for employment, and there is a high probability that he will go to the space ruins.

[A-044-Chimera] The talent has a super high affinity for the laws of fire, space, and darkness.

That guy probably needs space materials too.

With a seventh-order spell, Su Lun's resistance is almost certain to die.

But his expression didn't flinch at all, very much like the "dead man" of Lu Ying's MI. The longbow in his hand was full, and another arrow was fired.

The light arrow once again took the life of one of the guards beside Princess Stiga.

At the same time, the seventh-order law condensed flame technique also appeared in front of Su Lun, and it was inevitable.

But at this moment, a tall alchemy golem teleported in front of him. The lightsaber pierced through the belly of the golem, revealing a silver metallic sheen. Perhaps the technique of the high-level law burns the "wound" and does not heal quickly.

The gargoyles at this stage are far from being able to stop the seventh-order professionals.

Su Lun's expression did not waver at all, he drew his longbow for the fourth time, and shot an arrow again.

This time, he killed another guard beside Stika.

There are only two "shields" beside her.

Almost at the same time as Su Lun shot the arrow, another seventh-order spell "Shadow Magic Arrow" came towards him.

When the Gargoyle has not recovered, its defense will be greatly reduced.

This time, it might not be possible to stop it.

At this extremely critical moment, a pretty figure flashed out and stood in front of Su Lun.

She had no intention of evading, and smashed the shadow arrow with a punch.

Su Lun looked at it and breathed a sigh of relief: "Did she finally make a move?"

Looking at it again, the person who shot is naturally a masked Pandora.

Her alchemy body can't hurt under certain laws, and even a seventh-order professional can't hurt her body. At least this long-range technique is still a long way off.

I saw that a mysterious powerhouse with strange methods appeared again.

The Princess Marfa finally changed color.

She didn't understand where, this must be a "political assassination".

This is a very professional assassination tactic.

Several people dragged Merdis, and the bow master who took [Cronos' Time Cursed Bow] started to kill.

Now there is another person who can take the seventh-order spell forcibly, and the safety of the archer is also guaranteed.

Princess Stiga felt that her situation had reached the point of life and death.

At the same time, Su Lun's fifth arrow had been pulled away and aimed at it again.

She was so frightened that she couldn't care about anything else, and quickly said with the communicator: "Mr. Merdis, leave those assassins alone, take me away! There is a problem with the sacrifice, and the 'Sea Ruins' is about to appear!"

Competing with a bunch of assassins is not worth it at all.

Even if she can kill them all, it is not worth the risk of her 10,000-dollar body.

In the distance, Merdis frowned when he heard the order.

He doubted that the mysterious woman who could take on his attack was not of high rank, but had a strange body.

Maybe try again and you'll know the result.

But the fact is, the situation has not allowed him to delay any longer.

If he didn't have the confidence to kill the bow-drawer in a short time, Princess Stiga would be in danger.

What's more, the "sea market" cannot be underestimated.

Merdis' eyes flashed with unwillingness, but he also left the battlefield decisively, turned around and ran towards the direction of several sunken ships.

Then, under the shocked gazes of everyone in the Dawn Mission, he took the Princess Stiga to shred a special scroll, and the figure flickered a few times before disappearing on the sea.

Su Lun was not surprised to see this.

He let out a long breath and muttered to himself, "Finally gone."

If they really wanted to win, their Dawn Regiment should have attacked all the forces to besiege that "King of Thieves" Merdis.

The odds of losing both are high.

But Su Lun didn't want to see that ending.

Therefore, he has always shown a very decisive attitude towards killing that Princess Frostmoon.

Just to gamble on this situation.

The princess was even more desperate.

must retreat first.

Pandora Ken helped, in fact, at the last moment, Su Lun also had a great hope of killing that Princess Frostmoon.

But he didn't.

Can't kill either.

Because Su Lun knew very well, they couldn't deal with Merdis the "King of Thieves" for the time being.

Even if it could, the Dawn regiment would suffer heavy losses.

On the contrary, keeping this princess can make that guy jealous.

Just like right now.

A fierce battle ended abruptly, and everyone in the Dawn Regiment didn't seem to understand what happened.

Seeing that the enemy really disappeared into the sea, Qianjo returned to the boat, wondering, "Why did that guy run away?"

Su Lun sighed slightly and said, "Princess Stiga probably thought we were here to 'assassin' her. I wasn't sure if we had any backers, so I didn't dare to gamble, so I ran away."

Chijo was surprised, "Princess Mafa is on the boat?"

"yes."

Saying that, Su Lun's expression was also complicated.

I really didn't expect that there were so many coincidences. After a robbery, I met not only a Princess Marfa, but also a legendary hunter.

Seems to be bad luck

However, there is nothing more to say.

Su Lun looked at the bottom of the sea, and the mechanical octopus was still fighting with the sea monster. This big guy's combat power is indeed fierce, the mechanical octopus has lost several heads, and it is still energetic.

He said, "Doctor, help me anesthetize that big guy under the water."

Dr. Banks said: "Good!"

The rest of the Dawn regiment also began to clean up the battlefield.

People ran away, but those precious sacrifices, as well as the treasures on the "Pulstine" did not run.

(End of this chapter)
