Chapter 2010: Battle Trials in the Dawn (45)
At the same time (?), southwestern Great Britain, Port Penzance.
The fog was shrouded. Even though it was nearly noon, Penzance was surrounded by a hazy fog that seemed like early morning. In addition to the fog, the port city was also surrounded by the whistles of cargo ships, and the feeling of depression that had been wrapped in thick fog was wiped out by the arrival and departure of ships.
That's right, Penzance is currently one of the most developed ports in the British shipping industry. Although the fog is thick all year round, it is not suitable for air transportation, but its unique geographical location attracts all kinds of foreign and domestic ships full of large-tonnage cargo. Although the photonic civilization in this world has been very developed, ships flying in the sky have abounded. However, the current mainstream of the freight industry is still the use of sea transportation, which uses water power to transport millions of tons of goods around the world, which is more energy-efficient and cheaper than ships flying in the sky propelled by photonic engines.
In addition, the fog that swirls around Penzance Harbour seems to be a special fog called [Photon Mist], which can be condensed by a special device and can be used directly as fuel for ships. Most of the ships here are equipped with this special mist condenser, which absorbs the mist and condenses at every opportunity when the cargo is unloaded and loaded, and when the cargo is processed and the ship's fuel tank is full, it kills two birds with one stone.
And in such a port where commerce is thriving and there is a large hoarding of valuable goods, a gun ban is also a matter of course. If anyone opens fire here, if the bullets reach the cargo ship, the damage will be extremely serious.
Daniel came all the way around the coastline to Port Penzance this time because of this gun ban. His iron cavalry was an old-fashioned model without guns, while the iron cavalry of those examiners had guns, and this irreparable disadvantage could only be equalized by local policy. While hiding in Penzance Harbor, the examiners have no way to fire at Daniel, but Daniel can give the Iron Rider a chance to cool down after accelerating, while laughing at the examiners who can't fire and attack in Penzance Harbor.
Of course, he still chooses a low-key path. The opponent cannot fire at his iron horseman, as other means of interference exist. So at this time, of course, you can sneak as much as you can. As soon as he entered the port of Penzance and was covered in a special photon mist, Daniel turned the Iron Rider's flight altitude to the lowest level, allowing the entire Iron Rider to be immersed in the sea.
He himself was only half out of the water, and he sailed slowly on the water. The Iron Rider is inherently waterproof, so there is no problem at all with soaking in water. The icy sea water has a good cooling effect on the Iron Rider's engine. Moreover, the sea, combined with the fog on the surface of the sea, made the tail flame of the fumale behind the Iron Rider even more inconspicuous, and it was almost impossible to detect the light from twenty or thirty yards away, and one might even confuse the glow of the tail flame under the water with the flood light on the surface of the water in the sun.
If you stealth, this is already the extreme. Daniel had the Iron Rider lean against the shore of the harbor, neither too far nor too close to the shore. The next question is just when the other party will notice his presence.
Until then, you can breathe a sigh of relief. Daniel scooped up some seawater and washed his face. He was already soaking wet from the previous water battle, even his underwear was soaking wet. Since he was already wet from the inside out, he didn't bother to care if his face would get wet again.
If someone happens to look out from a cargo ship or a port at this time and sees Daniel walking in the fog, they will definitely mistake this young man with white hair and soaked body in the sea, with only the part above the waist, for some kind of sea monster or ghost. However, this is not the first time that Daniel has been in such a depressed situation, and he doesn't care what others might think of him. Now he just needs to achieve his goal, and he doesn't care about anything else.
So quiet.
The cargo ships in the harbor were constantly honking their whistles, and the environment was indeed noisy, but there was a deathly silence in this noise. Except for the whistle, except for the chirping of a few seabirds, there is no sound in this misty port. What was the deathly silence that preceded the storm? Could it be that he had been targeted? Could it be that his stealth had been seen through by his opponents?
Daniel lowered his weight and moved slowly, almost against the surface. At the same time, he nervously looked at his surroundings, trying to find the enemies who were watching him secretly. Let's hope it's just his delusion. After all, he has been sneaking in this state, he is detected by the opponent, and the opponent is also sneaking without being detected by him, if this is the case, then the opponent's stealth ability is really amazing, a little terrifying.
But then again, the fog was thick, but it couldn't really hide the glow of the Iron Rider's tail flame. If an opponent were flying over the nearby airspace, Daniel should have been able to detect the opponent early. Since there is nothing around, does it mean ......
The other party is not flying in the air at all, but ......!
The Black Iron Knight boy seemed to hear something, and it sounded from under the water. He realized that it was an attack from underwater, and it was likely to be an attack with a lightsaber, so he immediately twisted the lever of the Iron Rider, causing his Iron Rider to flip a hundred and eighty degrees!
Boom!
The opponent's attack from under the water was indeed the attack of the photon weapon, and Daniel's blow happened to meet the opponent head-on in the water! No wonder Daniel hadn't been able to see any movement in the nearby air since just now! Originally, the light of the Iron Rider's Tail Flame could penetrate the water and be seen by Daniel. However, this special environment of fog and sunlight caused a large area of sparkling on the surface of the water, and this interference made Daniel, who had been on the water since just now, unable to detect the abnormal change of light under the water!
The other party must have slowed down their iron horse, and then slowly and silently surrounded them......! But I have to say, these guys are amazing!
This is how Daniel's stealth ends, and he immediately has to turn into a battle in the water. And this kind of water battle has never been encountered by Daniel, and he is extremely uncomfortable. As a dark green knight, theoretically he will not suffocate if he does not breathe, but he used to be a human being, he has become accustomed to breathing, and it will be extremely uncomfortable to soak in water for a long time without breathing, and when he breathes, the water will run into his lungs and choke him half to death.
There is no choice but to fight while holding your breath, and then find the opportunity to float up and breathe. However, Daniel, who had already sunk into the water with the iron horse, found that there were six knights driving the iron horse waiting for him in the water! These guys didn't know when they surrounded him! The other party did not start attacking the moment they found Daniel, but called for a group, and only began to attack when Daniel's iron horse was completely surrounded, they were obviously people of the same team, and the tacit understanding between the teams was extremely high!
There was a muffled sound in the water, and Daniel raised his photon saber to block the attack of one of the knights. The other knight had already brandished the Photon Saber and attacked the blind spot that Daniel couldn't take care of!
No, the resistance in the water is too great, and now wielding this photon saber to defend back, it's already a step slower!
Instead of using the Photon Saber, Daniel swung his other hand and summoned the Void Curved Knife to block! His surprise defense made his opponent stunned for half a second, and he finally broke the siege once, and immediately twisted the lever of the Iron Rider and sprinted towards the opponent's less dense place!
It's a one-on-six siege, and this kind of obviously unfair battle has no chance of winning in the first place! Not to mention that Daniel's iron cavalry is inferior in performance, and Daniel's experience in water battles is also inferior to others!
Either concentrate your attacks and finish off one or two of your opponents, or find a way to hold them down and then hasten away in one go! If you want to survive the hands of these six elite knights, this is probably the only way!
The other two knights wrapped their arms around Daniel and swung their photon sabers as if they weren't underwater at all, and the speed at which they swung their knives was not affected by the resistance in the water. Daniel couldn't do the same thing as his opponent, he brandished the Photon Saber and the Void Warp in both hands to block, and it was extremely difficult to block!
Anyway, why is this? Daniel is obviously just a black iron knight, a nobody, and this iron riding driver's license test is not a big event, is it necessary to treat him like this to the dignified Great Britain? He is really overestimated, the people of Great Britain actually sent six elite knights who are good at riding and water warfare to besiege him, this is not even the slightest chance to pass the exam?!
Another opponent wielded a photon saber and slashed, and the attack was so amplitude that it was difficult to dodge. Daniel could only forcibly swing the photon saber in his other hand to block, adjust the flight direction of the iron horseman, and once again sprint towards the hole in the opponent's encirclement network!
And no matter why this exam has become so unfair. Now that he is under siege, he can only break out of the siege with all his might. These knights are all good at this kind of water fighting, they all wear specially constructed helmets, they seem to be able to breathe in the water, and they can see very clearly in the water, which is by no means comparable to Daniel diving into the water without any armor!
Daniel began to be besieged by three knights, and the other three came around to surround him from the other side, and were about to attack. Not only did he not get rid of these opponents, but he was gradually pushed into a corner, and the battle became more and more difficult. Even if he can protect himself from harm, there is no way to completely protect the iron horse he is driving from damage, and if this continues, his iron horse will be cut to pieces by the opponent's onslaught sooner or later, and the result will end in Daniel's failure in the exam!
What the hell should I do to get out of the encirclement?!
