Chapter 581: Broadside Battle
The results of the first contact between the Alliance's warships and the Abyssal Will were not very ideal, the shields they held up hand in hand were quickly shattered into slag under the latter's tentacles, and because the main guns were still charging, the counterattacks were all small arms, which seemed to be lively but the damage to the fathead fish was very limited, and it looked completely helpless against the monsters.
If it weren't for the shopkeepers on the surface deck of the front-row battleship, they always behaved very calmly, and Nangong Rong, who was watching the battle in the back row, even felt that the fleet was going to be finished, and after the battleship was entangled by the tentacles of the monster, they would never have a chance to turn over.
In this way, under Nangong Rong's slightly worried gaze, the fat-headed fish finally succeeded in wrapping its tentacles around the surface of the battleship at the head. The clerks at a maid's café didn't react to this, allowing the tentacles to cover the ship's hull, and then ......
Then the tentacles melted away.
Like the plastic affected by the heat, not only did the shape change drastically, but also ignited the flames, so that the monster could not restrain the movement of the battleship at all, but burned itself for a while. The use of hot potatoes is not enough to describe the bad feelings of the other party at the moment, because no potato will evaporate his hand.
"Is it because of the extremely high heat introduced into the surface of the hull?" Nangong Rong couldn't help but wonder after watching the fat-headed fish's broken tentacles disappear in the flames, "But how did the store manager stand on the deck, the temperature there shouldn't be suitable, right?"
The Golden Retriever then explained: "It's not the heat, it's some kind of divine spell against the abyss that is in effect. You must know that the will of the abyss is a combination of negative emotions and dark energy, although the divine spell cannot restrain it, but it is not a problem to fight it with enough strength, and the alliance has been fighting the abyss in this way until it finds your special being. ”
In that case, why does the final boss still choose to attack the ship with his tentacles when he knows the alliance's combat methods?
Without waiting for Nangong Rong to figure out this question, the second and third tentacles quickly climbed onto the battleship, although the second one quickly turned into ashes, but the third one was not affected much, at best, it was only green smoke coming out of the surface of the contact. It is obvious that the enemy has answered the boy's question with his own practical actions, and it is consuming the magic of this spell attached to the surface of the ship's hull, and it has nothing to do with itchy hands.
As for why the Abyss Will always keeps an eye on the battleship in the front row, in addition to the basic operation of gathering fire, it is also because it is the core of the fleet, and all the cooperation of the fleet is revolving around it, of course, it is necessary to fight this ship first. But that's why the shopkeeper and his friends take the boat and stand on its surface deck to eat melons and watch the show, and now it's time for them to throw away the watermelons in their hands and end the show.
Nangong Rong has always felt that Octavier's personal strength is very exaggerated, until he met the unreasonable Stephanie, and when the young man felt that the true damage of the black long straight space skill could be seconds of air, the blonde ponytail of the current store master told him that the strength of a person who does not rely on weapons and equipment can reach the level of the main gun of a battleship.
The tentacles or something are equivalent to non-existent at all, and in the extremely terrifying lightning and thunder, these strange things that are supposed to make all the horse monkey soju talk change color, no matter how many fathead fish have made it, all of them are instantly wiped out, and the remaining attacks are even pasted on the face of the fat head fish. It's a pity that the attack didn't do much damage to the Abyss Will, and it completely ignored these attacks and crashed directly into the battleship with its head, obviously determined to destroy the cooperation between the ships of the Alliance fleet.
"Let's get started, too. The golden retriever cat said to Nangong Rong, who was shocked by the incomparably exaggerated light and shadow effects, and at the same time, it also made the young man quickly recover from the shock, "Sao Nian, you stand here, I'll send things up later." The Abyssal Will is not expected to pass by the fleet, and will most likely maintain the same speed and direction to advance with us and maintain a relatively static state, and you will be able to do it at that time. ”
"No, no, no, you wait a minute. Nangong Rong, who was full of black lines, hurriedly pointed to the fat-headed fish who was trying to hit the battleship with his huge body not far away and said, "This is obviously planning to collide, where is there any need to maintain a relatively static state with the fleet!?"
"It doesn't matter, they're going to make the enemy give up the unrealistic idea of ramming. ”
So after all, what can those big guys do to stop the impact of the final boss, no matter how powerful they are, it is impossible to push a high-speed moving planet back!?
Although Nangong Rong wanted to overturn the table and roar and spray the golden haired cat's face, in the end, he couldn't help but speak, and watched from a distance as the shopkeeper who was surrounded by the girls took out a longbow made of unknown materials, and shot an arrow at the fathead fish very lightly.
No, no, no, in the background of the battleship's shelling and a handful of powerful ultimates that are not out of specification, this arrow is not even an understatement at all, it is completely at the level of stray bullets, and it is still the kind that a rifle can't tickle a giant monster.
It doesn't have any dazzling light and shadow special effects, nor does it have a huge energy that can't be ignored, so low-key that if it weren't for Nangong Rong just focusing on the store manager, he probably wouldn't have noticed the existence of this arrow. Obviously, the Abyssal Will didn't notice that this thing was flying towards him, and all his energy was spent on dealing with some blonde ponytail final boss until the arrow hit him.
In the stunned gaze of Nangong Rong, whose jaw fell to the ground at some point, the part of the fathead fish hit by the arrow suddenly sunken inward as if it had been hit hard by an invisible person, and then the sunken part began to disintegrate at a speed visible to the naked eye, turning into countless shining small points of light and disappearing into the turbulence of void energy.
In a similar situation, the boy said that he had encountered it before, when his sister's hometown port was attacked by an abyss monster and he fought against it and fell into a crisis. At first, I thought that it was Disya's subordinates or other military personnel who used some special weapon to help Nangong Rong out of danger, but now it seems that the person who saved the boy was the store manager.
Don't say it's unreasonable, it's a situation where even the reason itself is denied, how can an arrow that doesn't have much energy fluctuation be able to dig a hole in the final boss?Why is the object no different from powder in front of the shopkeeper's seemingly ordinary attack, and their own hardness is all paper paste?
Well, these are no longer important, the group of people who don't have two brushes alliance will definitely not take the initiative to block in front of such an exaggerated monster, and the more seriously the enemy is injured, the easier Nangong Rong's actions will be, of course the young man will not have any opinion on this.
It was also at this time that the golden retriever cat sent a square wooden box the size of a double room to the surface of the World Tree beside Nangong Rong, and after opening the main door, it could be seen that there were a lot of neatly stacked metal ingots inside, and at the same time, there was an illusory projection of a certain blonde Lori.
The system's manipulation of the World Tree is obviously becoming more and more proficient, and now even the projection has been tinkered with, as if it is the appearance of its own back garden. However, there is a projection that is still good in terms of dialogue after all, at least it can make Nangong Rong and them feel that they are talking face-to-face with the golden retriever, not with the air.
"The supplies are here, and the reserve energy of the World Tree is in this new branch. The golden retriever first turned his back to the warehouse and gestured behind him with his thumb, then pointed to the arm-thick branch that emerged from the boy's feet and said, "But I can only provide logistical assistance, and you will have to come up with your own ideas on how to fix it later." ”
It's a pity that despite the golden retriever's efforts to figure out the projection, Nangong Rong never looked at it directly, and kept focusing on the fat-headed fish that was desperately writhing its body not far away: "No problem, but there is a question that must be asked before I leave." ”
"What is it?"
"This fleet is sure to take out the Abyssal Will's killer weapon, I need to know what that is to decide how to work with it, otherwise do you think I'm going to get out of range of the map cannon and buy it enough time to fire at the communicator and shout something like "Shoot at me?"
The golden retriever couldn't help frowning and muttering for a moment when she heard this, and she didn't know whether she was thinking alone or seeking instructions from her superiors through the Internet, and only replied after a long time: "The details of the situation are not easy to say about this system out of confidentiality, but it can be guaranteed that that thing is 100% harmless to the human body, even if you are covered with a face, you will definitely be fine." ”
"Weapons for the abyss, I see. Nangong Rong nodded lightly in understanding, then held the newly grown branch with one hand and aimed at the metal ingot in the warehouse with the other, and began to exert his ability, "Then ......"
The young man could not finish his words, and before that, the scales on the surface of the fathead fish suddenly erupted in all directions like a big explosion, forming countless monsters that covered almost the entire battlefield. Of course, these curious-looking creatures were not released by the Abyssal Will as a background board, and they involuntarily scattered to launch a surprise attack on the battleship and even the World Tree, and it seemed that they were going to play a broadside battle.
If the final boss releases these miscellaneous soldiers at the beginning, Nangong Rong believes that they will not be able to approach the alliance's fleet at all, don't look at the fact that there are only a few ships but the firepower density is not questioned at all, and the barrage can definitely be described as airtight when cooperating with each other.
But now, the fathead fish waited until it got close to the fleet to release the monsters, but everyone was caught off guard - the shields of both sides had been penetrated, and at this moment it was a real fist-to-flesh battle, so the only obstacles that those hunters faced were the sparse and unformed firepower net and the surface armor of the battleship.
Of course, this is a good move and a failure, some kind of divine spell covering the surface of the battleship easily [purified] the constant influx of miscellaneous soldiers, and the abyssal will plan to engage the side battle did not happen, but these cannon fodder all over the sky did hinder the cooperation between the various warships, and the scene gradually became chaotic.
Everyone knows what happens when human forces are chaotic in battle, and even the Alliance has not been able to escape this. Fortunately, with the enchantment of the surface of the battleship's armor and its own hardness, the overwhelming monsters could not threaten the crew for the time being.
It's just that Nangong Rong and the others on the surface of the World Tree are not so lucky, the ship under their feet has not been enchanted by the sacred spell, and the monster can land safely and soundly. Although the number of monsters that pounced on them was not very large due to being at the end of the fleet, and most of them were shot down by the firepower of the Alliance ships and the World Tree itself during the flight, it is an irrefutable fact that they were able to move on the surface of the tree.
The boy originally thought that these fierce monsters would burrow into the interior along the unrepaired surface wounds of the World Tree and cause countless tragedies, but they obviously ignored the elven civilians inside who had little combat ability, and focused all their attention on Nangong Rong, who had an abyssal mocking aura.
Nangong Rong didn't stop his movements because of this, the metal ingots in the warehouse were still changing violently like a soft mud monster, he didn't mean to give up halfway, and there was no time for the young man to get rid of the miscellaneous soldiers that were constantly attacking before starting to make puppets again.
"You just keep it like this, and leave the stuff to us. Octavir strode in front of Nangong Rong and stood between him and the many monsters, and said without looking back, "Also, don't just focus on strengthening your defense and forget to add attack capabilities to your puppet, if the body doesn't have the ability to attack, it is impossible for us to escort you all the way to the Abyss Will under the strong watchful eyes of so many monsters." ”
"Ahh ”
Although the young man's response seemed a little casual, but this was also the performance of his belief in the eldest princess, otherwise, no one would be able to continue to remain calm when they could not free up their hands to deal with a group of bloodthirsty monsters, and they would have panicked a long time ago, well, and at the worst, there would be some wavering.
Lin Weiyin, who was standing near Nangong Rong but didn't see any movement, and didn't seem to plan to act with Octavier, also spoke at this moment: "Do you need me to accompany you?" I think it would be better for me to stay here and protect Ernie Sauce until he finishes making the puppet. ”
"Well, that's right. Then you stay, and I'll clean up those monsters. ”
