Chapter 320: Snakes
"The lake is in that direction! I can already see the reflection of the lake! β
After being guided by Winter's vague direction, Frey, who was standing on the makeshift lookout of the Sky Destroyer, quickly spotted her target.
But it didn't take long for the excited shouts of the Holy Silver Sword Ji to be replaced by exclamations.
"There's a big flock of birds...... No, it's a snake with wings! β
Even from the perspective of Xiwei on the deck, he could see a dark cloud composed of countless black shadows rising from the forest and sea like a mist, and it was overwhelming and unavoidable, and it was impossible to avoid it!
"It's a feathered serpent. Don't panic, Frey, you come down first! β
Xiwei casually took out the communication card and gave an order directly to the bridge: "Open the physical protection enchantment, and strengthen the enchantment protection capability as much as possible while ensuring the engine." β
As soon as the words fell, a dark blue translucent shield appeared around the magic ship, and the magic light that flowed through due to the uneven magic power could be faintly seen.
In the next instant, the winged snakes slammed into the Celestial Destroyer.
The sound of a dense crash filled Sivi's eardrums, and it sounded like countless raindrops banging on the window on a rainy day, crackling and crackling.
After just over ten seconds, the color of the protective barrier faded at a rate visible to the naked eyeβwhile this thing was very powerful in many cases, it was a bit unsightly in the face of countless suicidal attacks from Feathered Serpents.
"Why are these guys attacking us suddenly?" Sophia meditates on the bridge.
Naturally, no one will answer the girl's question......
It's not going to go on like this. Sivi's brow furrowed slightly.
And that's not all.
"Sivi, the strength of these guys is not strong individually, but the power of the impact is terrifying when there are many of them. From the time we encountered each other until now, we have only advanced less than 100 meters! β
Fett's voice ringing in his ears was like a switch, and Sivi finally decided to make a move.
I saw him wave his right hand, and an orange-red layer of fire elemental appeared on the periphery of the protective barrier, which had already begun to be a little overwhelmed, although it was not as good as the Radiant Flame. But the nearly 4,000 degrees Celsius heat also caused the feathered snakes that dared to approach to let out a shrill roar and fall from mid-air with black smoke - their somewhat oily feathers would spontaneously combust if they were too close to the heat.
While this method did not stop the Quetzalcoatl's suicide attack, it at least minimized its effectiveness.
However, this creates new problems.
Many small red snakes burst out of the orange flames. Unhindered through the protective barrier, he jumped directly onto the Celestial Destroyer and began to set fires everywhere. Fortunately, it was discovered and destroyed early, otherwise this priceless magic guide destroyer would probably have turned into a sea of fire.
"It's a fire elemental creature mandala snake...... Follow these flames through the fire of my gate. Did you come here from the fire elemental plane? β
As the name suggests, the Physical Protection Barrier can only block physical attacks, and naturally has no effect on the Mandala Snake, which is itself a fire elemental assembly.
Sivi waved his hand and threw an elemental dispel. Let a few mandala snakes whose crusade level is less than double digits but dare to grin at him are wiped out.
At the same time, he also recalled the flames attached to the barrier and replaced them with black hellfire.
This time, nothing had jumped out of the hellfire, and although the hellfire was a little worse than the sunfire, the pain for the soul had overwhelmed the instincts of the feathered serpents, and as soon as they were on fire, they could almost only hiss and scream and run around.
However, this upper hand did not last long.
Soon the Feathered Serpents also changed their tactics, and they were no longer alone in attacking the Magic Destroyer. Instead, he pouted on another strange snake that looked round and fat, and was covered in black and green patterns.
This strange snake, which is only more than 20 centimeters long, is really a small point compared to most of the feathered snakes that are more than 1.5 meters long.
It's a pity that Feathered Serpent didn't mean to treat his own little kind.
With these monstrous snakes in their mouths, they began to throw them at the Magic Destroyer outside of the Hellfire.
The little snake was burned by hellfire. The whole snake curled up, and its body swelled up like a balloon that was blowing, and then exploded with a thud, splashing out a puff of black viscous liquid.
Although Xiwei didn't know what the effect of the little snake bodily fluids that he couldn't even recognize with his LV5 monsterology was, it was obvious that it wasn't a positive effect.
When touched by this slime, the protective barrier becomes thinner and thinner at a rate that is even faster than it was when it was struck by the Feathered Serpents......
"It's corrosion...... That snake's bodily fluids are acid! And it's a strong acid that is close to the power of acid magic! Once again, Fit's warning voice rang out across the bridge and deck at the same time, sending shivers through everyone's hearts.
Acid magic is a branch of poison magic, and is known only to be used by lizardfolk rituals.
"Those snakes don't want us near the lake!"
Sivi calmly watched the snakes crowded outside the protective barrier, and finally grasped the situation: "This means that there must be something there!" β
"But what now?!" Frey, who had come down from the makeshift lookout, swung her sword and slashed a strange snake that had broken through the protective barrier in two, and the black slime in the snake's body sprinkled on the deck, and after a special process, a pungent white smoke rose from the wooden deck, which was not much stronger than the iron plate, and was corroded into a few small depressions.
Looking around, he found that more and more snakes began to break through the protective barrier, and even a few had already burrowed into the main cannon. β
"Do you want to give up exploring the lake?"
Frey played a sword trick, slashing a few feathered snakes that wanted to sneak up on her into a dozen pieces and then returning them to their sheaths, the whole set of movements as smooth as flowing water.
"Of course not."
After careful comparison found that from the beginning of the retreat of the Demon Guide Destroyer, the snakes really began to give up the pursuit, and Xiwei's eyes lit up: "Dealing with these little things is different from the World Tree of the World, the Sky Destroyer, which has strong firepower but is slow in its own actions, is just a burden, and it is too constrained to fight while protecting it." β
He jumped onto the deck and glanced back at Frey thoughtfully, "So I decided to leave the few of us alone to the lake." What do you think, Your Excellency the Holy Silver Sword? (To be continued.) )
