Chapter 386: The North Sea Monster
The Giant's Ancestral Land is in a swampy area dozens of miles southeast of Gafatron City, where there is a thick fog all year round, and birds do not fly in the sky. It is the same as the "Nightmare Ghost Domain", and for ordinary people, it is a "dead place" where there is no entry or exit.
Whether in the game or in reality, countless people have used their lives to prove that it is a "forbidden area of life".
Raymond is very aware of the complex terrain of that "forbidden area", the periphery is a swamp, but the depth is a huge freshwater lake, and there is a very strange "forbidden demon area" in the center, which is the real "Giant Ancestral Land"!
And the reason why this misty area is called "dead land" is because there is an infinite loop prohibition similar to "ghosts hitting walls" in the fog. If you don't know the right route, you will be trapped in the swamp area without even seeing the lake.
The entire misty area is shrouded in a very strange magnetic field, and even if a bird strays into it, it will inexplicably lose the ability to discern the direction, go crazy, and eventually fall into the swamp...
The mud of the swamp was filled with countless bones, magical beasts and human bones that had strayed into this place. In the depths of the poisonous miasma, there are also some powerful magical beasts that have adapted to the poisonous miasma swamp.
When the Giant Kings returned to their ancestral land, they would row a wooden boat alone, follow the safe route of the inheritance through the swamp area, row across the lake, and finally arrive at the ancestral land of the giants...
Outsiders don't know which safety line is how.
But in the game, players have a system to record the map route. After countless death attempts, adventurous Pioneer Hunters have discovered a route into the depths.
Walk in a serpentine position, avoid those "ghosts hitting the wall" prohibition settings, and you can smoothly enter the lake area.
However, there are quite a few monsters on this route.
......
The Capone boss wants to stay in Gafatron and preside over the overall situation.
Enzo and [Shotgun] Sidri followed the "Ghost Regiment" deep into the Misty Zone. With these two bigwigs here, it is enough to deal with the vast majority of high-level Warcraft threats.
The Golden Ghost has extraordinary amphibious navigation capabilities, which is perfect for dealing with the complex terrain of the "Giant's Ancestral Land".
The group rode the steam-spewing steel toad and gradually penetrated into the misty zone that the giants considered a forbidden place.
Enzo knew that this strange ship had a special sailing ability, but the [Shotgun] Sidri was a first-time merchant ship, so it felt very novel.
The old cowboy followed Raymond and them into the swamp on the Iron Toad, and was amazed all the way, "I heard that your ironclad ship can 'fly', but I didn't expect it to run underground..."
Even if he has first-class vision, he has to marvel at the scientific and technological level of the "Golden Ghost", which is not only high, but also different.
......
The group gradually went deeper into the swamp area, and the frequency of encountering monsters was not low.
The world's top musketeer also showed his extraordinary fighting prowess.
Even in the fog area with low visibility, his eagle-eyed super vision could spot the swamp monsters hiding in the fog and dirt in time to ambush the Iron Toad.
The miraculous marksmanship is almost always a headshot.
The eighth-order "Swamp Giant Crocodile", the ninth-order "Eight-Clawed Ink Poison Chapter", and the overlord-level monster of the swamp area, the tenth-order "Thousand Swords Beetle"...
The famous monsters in these games have not escaped the joint strangulation of the two bigwigs.
The musketeer sniped from a distance, and then Raymond and a few people shot at close range, and he really encountered a powerful existence that couldn't be solved, and Enzo shot again...
In this way, the "Golden Ghost" encountered almost no obstacles, and advanced all the way.
Everything is normal, and the "ghost hitting the wall" ban is exactly the same as in the game, snakeskin is in place, and the group of them entered the core area smoothly.
The "Golden Ghost" entered the water, and everyone no longer had to suffer from the turbulence of the land journey, and floated peacefully in the amber.
However, the farther you go, the more bizarre it becomes.
Because, the surrounding silence is too eerie.
In the swamp area before, they also killed a lot of swamp monsters along the way.
The division of the monsters is roughly the same as in the game, and Raymond thought that they would just push all the way to the core.
But after entering the lake area, they didn't even encounter a large kraken or sea king, and even the more they walked behind, the density of aquatic creatures became smaller and smaller...
Enzo spotted the anomaly in advance and asked with a solemn expression, "Raymond boy, is this the lake area where you said there are many monsters in the mist?" β
"I don't know..."
Raymond also found it very strange.
After this exploration, he unexpectedly discovered that there was nothing in the domineering perception of seeing and hearing! Even the fish and shrimp in the water are rare, as if they have been driven away by something.
Obviously, the lake area is a high-level monster dense area in the game, but now you can't see a shadow, which is definitely not normal!
Everyone knows that a "prophet" is not omniscient and omnipotent.
No one questioned Raymond's decision, at least they had a smooth journey, and even stepped into the lake area that even the "land snake" Thor didn't even know.
This also proves that Raymond's "line" is no problem!
"Be careful, I always think there's something strange in this lake."
Enzo stared into the depths of the lake, and for the first time showed an unusually solemn expression.
He sensed his surroundings for a moment, then frowned and said, "There are very clever magic prohibitions here that not only limit perception, but also confuse the information that the human senses receive. It looks like an ancient ban arranged by using the power of nature, lakes, fog, and swamps are all part of the prohibition, and the scale is so large that it is impossible to break it with external forces..."
"Hmm."
Everyone nodded.
It is not surprising that the "Giant's Ancestral Land" has this kind of ancient prohibition.
But it is this means of restricting perception that adds a bit of mystery and weirdness to the already dangerous lake area.
Leaning down, you can see through the lake water of more than ten meters at the bottom of the boat.
It's clear, but it can't go deeper.
Even if you see and hear it, you can't sense what is hidden in the depths of the dark green lake. The range of perception is greatly weakened, and the information received by the five senses is not necessarily real.
This means that what you see is not necessarily "real".
Raymond knew very well that this was the weirdness of this lake.
......
"Captain, the results of the water quality inspection are out."
At this time, Lulu on the side took out the water sample test results he had just obtained and looked at it.
He said: "The pH value of the water is normal, and the water temperature and dissolved oxygen are in line with the living conditions of organisms. Now there are no fish and shrimp in this water, and the possibility of being preyed on is not high, the biggest possibility... It's because something suddenly appeared in the water that aquatic creatures couldn't avoid, dispersing the fish and shrimp! β
"That's weird..."
Raymond's eyes were full of suspicion,
They came in exactly the way they were in the game, which shouldn't be the case here.
If he remembers correctly, there are not only a lot of big fish in this water, but also a few BOSS-level sea kings...
From the time you enter the "Giant's Ancestral Land" to the Lake District, it is normal, and the setting is almost exactly the same as in the game, which means that your plan is fine.
But the closer you get to the core, the more dense the aquatic life becomes... This is very abnormal.
There are no alien invasions in this lake, and the food chain tends to be stable, which means that the division of monsters should also be very stable.
As for what Lulu said, it's because there is something in the water that aquatic creatures can't avoid... This makes people think about it.
"Could it be that there are some alien monsters that let all the monsters in this water escape to other places?"
Raymond thought of this possibility, and had a faint bad feeling in his heart, and thought in his heart: "This core area is all ninth-order and tenth-order top-level kraken activity waters, what other monsters can eat them all, or drive them to other waters?" β
If there is, no matter what it is, I'm afraid it will be an extremely terrifying existence.
But this road is a necessary place to go to the core area of the "safe route", detour to other places, Raymond is not sure.
Thinking of this, he asked Enzo, who was also frowning on the side, "Enzo-sama, shall we go back first?" I always thought there might be something strange in this water..."
......
"Weird?"
Enzo's eyes were misty, and he obviously sensed something, and shook his head slightly.
He muttered, "It's too late..."
Needless to say, this second-generation blood clan boss has already transformed into a blue-faced fanged demon state!
"Huh?"
Hearing Enzo's words, everyone on the ship was stunned.
Before they could understand why Enzo would say such a thing, they saw that he was like a great enemy, and he changed his demonic state.
"Be careful, there's a monster in the water!"
At this time, the [Hunting Spear] Hidri also discovered the abnormality and exclaimed.
Everyone looked at it, and suddenly the water surface not far away surged, and a hundred-meter-long black python appeared in an uproar!
And, that's not all!
In the blink of an eye, as if a lotus flower was in full bloom, eight giant pythons of the same size appeared around the "Golden Ghost" one after another.
A total of nine black pythons emerged from the water, almost identical!
The shiny black scale armor is shiny, and the pair of vertical pupils are of different colors, red, orange, yellow, green... Each color corresponds to a specific elemental attribute, earth, wind, water, fire, light, darkness, metal, wood, poison...
If you look closely, this is not a nine-level python at all, but a super-level monster with nine heads!
......
"! What the hell is here! β
When Raymond saw that the system displayed the name of this monster, he chuckled in his heart, and a cold sweat instantly hit his back.
No wonder the aquatic creatures in this lake ran away, it turned out to be this famous monster.
This is the "North Sea Monster" - a super-level epic BOSS [Nine-Headed Titan Python]!
The King of Giants fought with it before, and only then was he seriously injured and returned to the ancestral land of the Hidden Giant, but he didn't expect this monster to chase here?
"Damn it!"
Raymond secretly scolded himself for his bad luck, but he ran into this super-level boss who had lived for an unknown number of years and was almost invincible in the world.
It can even be beaten to the brink of death and seriously injured by the world's top warrior "King of Giants", but how strong is it?
Each of the nine heads with different elemental attributes has the ability to fight independently, but they can fight together.
It also means that if someone wants to fight it, it is equivalent to dealing with nine super-level monsters at the same time, or a seamless super monster that can cooperate with nine heads
"It's a big problem. Be careful yourself, I may not be able to take care of you when we fight..."
Enzo's tone was very solemn, although he didn't make a move, the abyssal demon flames all over his body were already surging.
This super-rank monster is just as threatening to him!
For Enzo, the second generation ancestor, it may not be possible to kill the enemy (it is estimated that no one in this world can kill the 'North Sea Monster'), but he is still somewhat sure of self-preservation.
But if you want to protect Raymond everyone, it's very difficult.
......
The parts of this super-level monster that emerged from the water were like nine peaks, and the "Golden Ghost" was less than one-tenth the size of it!
Nine pairs of terrifying vertical pupils of different colors are like lanterns in the darkness and darkness, and people look as if they are being stared at by death.
The moment it appeared, an invisible coercion instantly enveloped everyone on the "Golden Ghost".
In Raymond's sea of knowledge, a system prompt immediately came.
γDing! Under the pressure of the 'Nine-Headed Titan Python' rank, you fall into a state of 'shock', your body stiffens, and you can't move...]
How high his will attribute is now, he has instantly fallen into a state of "shock", what can he do to others?
Colin, Lulu, Fat Cat, Anna, Thor, Nicole, Gigi in battle suits... None of them were spared, and everyone stood there as if they had been immobilized.
Even the [Shotgun] Sidri in Sequence 0 had a feeling of not breathing, and his right hand with the arc pistol on his waist trembled faintly because of this shock.
The only one on the ship who confiscated the influence was Enzo, and at this moment, the momentum on his body was rising higher and higher, and the demonic flames were monstrous, and he had already burst out with all his strength...
It was also because of his explosive strength to confront the super-level boss that the nine huge pythons were afraid and did not sink the "Golden Ghost" at the first time.
"Enzo is so strong... Is this the strength of the world's top transcendentals? β
In Raymond's perception, Enzo's momentum was already unbelievably strong, even beyond the scope of comprehension.
He had no doubt that at this level, he would be able to kill himself in an instant.
Enzo's chest was heaving and heaving, and it was clear that the pressure of the confrontation was no less. He didn't turn his head, and said softly: "This beast's intelligence is not high, and its ferocity is still there... It will certainly give up attacking out of fear. After a while, I will take the initiative to attack, and the moment I break the coercion, you will flee by yourself! β
The tone was serious, and obviously, he wasn't much sure either.
However, this was the most reasonable way for Enzo to think of a response.
"Run?"
At the moment of crisis, Raymond's mind fell into that state of extreme calm.
No one else has seen the methods of this "North Sea Monster", but he has seen it!
This big guy and a snake head can easily take out a Sea King-class battleship, not to mention their careful predator-level "Golden Ghost"?
If there is a real war, the whole ship will be dealt a devastating blow at once.
Raymond can also teleport away, and Anna may be able to save her life by elementalization, but the others are almost certain to die!
Even the super defense of Colin's legendary battle suit is as fragile as a piece of paper in the face of the attack methods of this epic boss.
......
"That's all you can do!"
At this moment, Raymond made a decision.
He didn't plan to run away, but to gamble!
Now that there is Enzo to attract firepower, the "North Sea Monster" only thinks that he is a threat, and all attention is on Enzo. It would never have imagined that the humans it regarded as small bugs would have the means to threaten its life.
This is the best chance to cast that spell!
