Chapter 279: The Leviathan

The dark river in the city of Bilgewater leads to the sea in all directions, and the three of them can find a no-man's corner to go down the river, and then go all the way to the sea and then to the archipelago north of Bilgewater.

It was a little farther away, and the trio spent half an hour diving out of the harbor and then another hour swimming to the northern islands.

The environment of the Python Islands is much more primitive, with dense forests covering the islands everywhere, and old temples looming in the shade of foliage, all of which have human footprints and have not been abandoned.

Even Sarah, this is the first time she's set foot on Barjou's turf.

In the past, she just looked at this mysterious archipelago from afar, and it left a deep memory on her.

Four or five years ago, she had just taken a bounty from the Noxian Dragon Gate and was returning to Port Bilgewater, but found a smuggler's narrow-distance galleon in the bay of Molten City, fleeing the Anaconda Islands, laden with treasure looted from a temple of Bajou.

She still remembered the serpent's horn echoing across the sea, the mournful roar of the snake caller. Then she saw an abyssal kraken poke out of the sea, whipping the galleon into pieces of planks, dragging the entire crew into the abyss of death.

From her onwards, all her thoughts of Baju vanished. It's no wonder that even Planck didn't make a move on Barjou, the troll is the master of the sea, and no ship can match it.

"Don't go ashore." Sarah looked at the strait on either side and said, "We're here to look for the ship and see where it stops." ”

Below the surface of the sea, there were reefs, and it was clearly not suitable for docking, and Sarah thought that the ship would not enter the strait of Bajou, but would choose to dock closer to the open sea, if she hadn't left.

"Separate ......" she noticed the two of them, and then held back her words and changed her words: "Anyway, the place is not big, swim around the archipelago, if you don't find it, go back, remember not to be discovered by the locals." ”

While talking, a small boat rowed in the distance, and the three of them hurriedly dived into the water.

A woman rows a boat, nimbly navigating the reef-covered sea.

She wore a golden crown on her head, and her hair was braided into a thick and fluffy dreadlock, like a mop that had not been soaked in water. The face is painted with silver paint with wavy lines, and he is dressed in a cream-white leather top. The stick in her hand is carved with a coiled sea serpent, which is both a staff and an oar.

Pure prayers came from the mouths of the devotees of the Mother Serpent.

"The Mother of Sea Serpents shines brightly, from the bottom of the sea to the clouds."

"The gray sky stared at the ground, and the calm sea seemed to reflect her gaze."

She smiled softly and was at peace.

The sound drifted away with the boat, and the three of them looked at each other underwater and decided to follow.

Following the island navigator to a bay, the three of them suddenly stopped, shocked by what they saw.

In the shadow of the archipelago, a huge steel warship stands out in it, as if a sleeping beast has suppressed the sea, which is extremely terrifying.

"It's a steamship......," Karn was stunned for a moment.

This is a veritable steel battleship, the hull is wrapped in the finest steel produced in Fort Digwo, the biggest feature of this hard steel is that it has a dull luster, the color is like black rock, the side of the ship looks like the black stone wall of Noxus from a distance, and the railings on the side of the ship have become battlements, making this battleship look like a moving sea fortress.

Typical Noxian aesthetic, grand and majestic, cascading grooves add a lot of brutally sharp edges and corners, but the degree of solidity is not comparable to that of a traditional wooden ship, and it is difficult to penetrate even if a thirty-pounder cannon is pulled.

At the front of the ship's side, a huge wall stack is designed in a neat and staggered shape to look like a giant mouth. From the "gaps between the teeth" continued to shine through the orange-red fire, and as expected, it was the ship's boiler room.

In the center was the muzzle, but the muzzle widened into columns, from which many fierce cannons protruded. And on the deck, three huge trapezoidal columns replaced the masts, constantly spewing black smoke.

"Why can Noxus' ship stop in the Python Islands, aren't the Bajo people very xenophobic?" Kai'Sa was the least shocked, and was the first to react, at first she thought she had encountered a giant steel monster.

Sarah and Karn were not the same, the former was struck by her status as a seafaring supremacy, while the latter was amazed by the technological prowess of Noxus. TV updates the fastest //

"Do you remember a rumor? About Planck's. Sarah frowned, thinking about how to explain the rumors to Kai'Sa that she hadn't witnessed before. She had always thought it was Planck's drunken madness, a pompous lie used by the captains to boast about themselves.

"Huh? What is it? Kai'Sa didn't know.

Sarah continued, "A long time ago, Planck stole a Noxus ship, which was the pride of the Noxus Navy, the most astonishing achievement in the history of Noxus naval engineering. ”

"The Leviathan, the battleship of Svein, the current Grand Commander of Noxus, may be the world's first steam-powered ironclad." Kahn said.

"You mean...... The ship in front of you is the Leviathan that Planck once stole from? That's why the ship can stop here because of him? With Karn's addition, the clues gradually linked, and Kai'Sa realized something, and suddenly her eyes widened, "Wait...... Is Planck still alive? And brought the Leviathan back? ”

Sarah nodded, I'm afraid that's the way it is, only counting the relationship between Planck and Aloy, the appearance of this ship here can be justified.

"Planck is back for revenge." Sarah sighed, her expression unusually solemn.

"What the hell is wrong, he should have died in the sea with the Abyss. Could it be that it was the Tidal Sea Spirit who rescued him again? ”

She didn't understand how Planck had survived the catastrophe, and she could vaguely see him being eaten by the sea beast. But if it weren't for Planck, who would have driven the Leviathan here.

"The Sirens can't beat the Leviathan......" Kai'Sa also felt anxious, and the civil unrest in Bilgewater had just been put down and was about to be broken.

"Besides, if it were to go head-to-head, none of the ten sirens would have thought of beating the Leviathan. Even a sneak attack is difficult, and I reckon the Siren's shells will have a hard time penetrating the steel battleship. If there is a fight, the siren will have to run. ”

Sarah spat indignantly: "How the hell did Planck steal such a big guy from the Noxus Navy, and those guys are all eating dry food?" I'm about to vomit my mother's nausea! ”
