Volume 1 The Land of the Dead Chapter 82 From the Deep Sea

Surrounded by gray seas and raging tides, the first storm of the Dark Moon arrives as scheduled under the will of Lady Tina, the Stormlord of the Storm.

The wind blew out from the depths of the endless sea, carrying mottled magical elements in all directions, and the Suzuka, which was drifting with the inky waves, was bursting with dazzling firelight from time to time, and the orange flames rose and fell together, flickering and uncertain, quite like competing with the stars.

In the dark moon, when the moon does not rise as usual, if you can look far away on the gray sea, the flickering fire on the Suzuka is like a lighthouse, and it stands out under the dark curtain of night.

It is often said that the storms on the Grey Sea symbolize Tina, the Lord of the Storm, and it is not for nothing that even the faithful of the Lord of the Storm cannot guess the decree of the god.

They seem to be mostly dreams that borderline madness, sometimes he asks believers to perform lavish sacrifices in times of famine, sometimes he condemns the tyranny and corruption of the human kingdom, and even an oracle that asks the Church of Storm to declare war on the God of Light, almost starting a religious war between the two churches.

Under the rule of such a god, the situation in the gray sea can be imagined, the sky here may be clear one moment ago, and in the next second, the huge waves dozens of stories high may be carried by a hurricane, swallowing everything on the surface of the sea.

So it was customary for people who sailed on the ocean to pray to Lady Tina that they could sail safely across the Grey Sea, after all, there was not much they could do in the face of the vagaries of the weather.

However, compared to the treacherous sea, below the sea level is the vast and magnificent world on the other side, even if the waves are surging on the sea, the water is still quiet and deep, according to some doctrines denounced by the Church as heretical, this is the origin of all beings in the world.

At this time, in this place that should have been in absolute darkness, a pure white light suddenly appeared, disturbing the fish that had been dormant and fleeing in all directions.

It was a fusiform behemoth, with an elongated conical ramming angle at its head, making it look like a narwhal, but in reality, it was something that should never have been in this era.

"Boss, there's news from upstairs, there's movement on the starboard side!"

A young man in a burlap turban ran down the stairs and hurried to the cabin at the end of the corridor, which caused many sleepy-eyed heads to poke out from the cabins on both sides of the corridor.

"Boss ......."

As soon as he entered the door, the young man looked at the old and majestic eyes of the captain Xun Sheng, and the young man's originally somewhat panicked shout couldn't help but gradually weaken.

"Chief, there's movement on the sea," the young man lowered his eyes as if he was still being trained as an old man on the island, and continued angrily, "It seems that there is a battle on a merchant ship not far away, and according to the predetermined course, it is very likely that we will pass directly below them, Creed glanced at it with his eagle eye, and judging by the pattern of the flag, it seems to be the merchant ship of the Suzuka Chamber of Commerce." ”

"Linghua Chamber of Commerce, didn't their caravan just return to Vikz? Could it be that the information is wrong?"

Hearing this, the quill pen in the captain's hand, who had been bent down to write and draw, paused, and the tip of the pen just shook with full ink, and the ink droplets fell silently on the yellowed parchment, which made the captain's eyes twitch, and he shook his head as he stared at the ink spots on the chart.

"Ensure the depth of sailing, conceal the track, and open all the silent magic arrays for Lao Tzu, anyway, the storm is coming, just avoid them, this time we will sail alone on a submarine ship on the Aojin, just to replenish supplies to the base, there is no need to fight with that kind of big chamber of commerce." ”

"But, sir, they have only one merchant ship, not an ocean-going fleet, and it seems that they have been left alone for some reason. It seemed that he was a little unwilling to let go of the big fish, and the young man hurriedly added.

"Hmm, can you be sure there are no other ships around?" said the old captain straightened up, his empty sleeves hanging beside him.

This is a one-armed old man, the years seem to have left no trace on him, whether it is that majestic face, or still maintain a strong figure, all show his former strength, he was probably a strong man in his youth, you can only glimpse the traces of old age in his gray hair and the occasional dead silence in his eyes.

"I'm sure of this, there are no ambushes in the surrounding waters, and there are no frigates. The young man seemed to be back to normal, and his words gradually began to sharpen, "Also, Chief, the data shows that the water is heating up, the storm surge is about to pass, and we only have half an hour to be safe." ”

"Well......" The old captain was also a decisive man, and he groaned slightly, he stared at the dark sea outside the crystal porthole, and his already angular face became more and more aggressive, "Then call those little guys to Lao Tzu." Get ready to float! Just in time for you to see what a real battle is!"

.......

"Buzz~"

With a high-frequency piercing roar, Ryan barely allowed the carefully compressed fireball to arc through the air, but it was still not as good as the fast-moving dark shadow, and he had to control the fireball powerlessly to smash the fireball on the floor where no one was standing, and then, the dazzling arcane light bloomed in the small dining room, and the heat wave broke through the cabin's not-so-solid window lattice, and bloomed a fleeting cluster of small sparks in the dark gray sea.

"Damn, how can this guy keep moving at such a high speed in a small room, how explosive is he, and with my magic, I can't even lock him on!"

Once again, he was forced back by Brandon's sharp claws in the gap between dodging, and Ryan, who was sweating profusely, snorted, and dodged behind Carlos with his arms covered, leaning on Carlos's broad shoulders so that Ryan could catch his breath for a while.

The dazzling blood stained Ryan's shirt, and through his fingers, he could see three long, narrow and hideous black wounds on his arms, almost deep into the bones.

The simple but luxurious dining room that had been set up was now unrecognizable, and the evil spirit that had devoured Roger stood in place, surprisingly without any movement, and the tung oil on its body dripped down its deformed limbs hanging beside it, mixed into the miserable green slime on the floor, accompanied by the sound of stabbing and pulling, and green smoke rose.

The rancid slime covered almost everything in the restaurant, and the liquid that shook off Brandon's wing membrane was not only slippery, but also corrosive. The wound on Ryan's arm was scratched by Brandon's venom-laden claws, and Ryan's arm was almost out of instinct, unable to even lift it up.

"Stupid, with your magic, even if you hit it, it won't do much! Don't be stunned, help me keep an eye on my back. Difana's brown-red ponytail was loosened in the struggle, her hair mixed with sweat and dirt stuck to her green face, and she shouted without looking back.

It had only been a minute since Roger had been devoured by the evil spirit, but the True Knowers were clearly on the verge of defeat, and with Alley removed, Brandon, who had taken the magic potion, could undoubtedly crush everyone present in terms of speed and strength.

What makes the people of the True Knowledge Guild feel even more powerless is Brandon's combat experience that is far beyond the others, almost at the moment when Ryan releases his magic, Brydon can react accordingly, and even Ryan's many spells were interrupted by Brydon's sudden attacks, of course, this is also related to the rigid fighting style of Ryan, who has just become proficient in magic.

"Hey, little girl, give up, I won't give you a chance!" Brydon, who was hanging upside down on the roof, sounded fiercely, and before the words fell, Brydon's figure slid down against the vertical wall like a loach, and disappeared in front of everyone.

Brushing the hair scattered on her lips, the vigilant Difana took a step back, closer to Delane and the others, and the feeling of being stared at by the beast did not disappear because of Brandon's disappearance, but became more and more intense.

Recalling the obscure knowledge that Alley had imparted to her, Difana had built a very different magical model in her mind, it was not a magic model of the six basic elements or their mutations, three arcane runes like a crescent moon broke free from the shackles of the spirit and wandered around Difana, and the soul splitting technique derived from the soul shepherd Fina was manifested by her in another way.

"Summoning—Arcane Servants!"

With Difana's soft voice, her already small magic power reserves poured out, and three floating arcane rune meteors generally converged into the experimental subject No. 3 that Difana had been holding in her arms, and the round No. 3 unfolded in an instant, and under the petal-like shell, there were countless star-like free points of light, and the three arcane runes were attached to three of them like milk swallows, and in an instant, the light in the cabin was flourishing.

"Now, die, little girl!"

Just when Difana had just finished her magic and her spirit was relaxed, Brandon's hideous figure suddenly appeared at Difana's side, as if he was there.

Brandon's flickering claws slashed at Difana's petite body with sharp wind pressure, and Brandon, who thought he had succeeded, already had a cruel and bloodthirsty look on his face, but unfortunately, a crisp sound of metal colliding shattered his illusions.

"Hee-hee, idiot, isn't it the camouflage color that comes with lizards, I've seen a lot of them before. ”

Defana's little head poked out from behind the tall 'law enforcement team' and grinned with her tongue out.
