Chapter 199: Windfall and Conjecture
The fundamental reason why Jang Yongchu took the opportunity of his military training vacation to come to Incheon for a voyage was to take a closer look at what the red cloud, which had made the whole world tense situation, what it had become after so many days of evolution and what kind of impact it could have, and if possible, it would be best to see how the South Korean government responded to the threat of the red cloud.
But what he didn't expect was that before he arrived in the sea where he could observe the red clouds up close, he coincidentally defeated a strange ship that was obviously not an Earth ship.
"Get close to the long ship." After the victory, he groaned a little, and then, out of curiosity, he opened his mouth to command.
In the face of Zhang Longchu's order, the heroic spirit helmsman who was bound by the rules in the dark naturally obeyed to the end without objection, and after a while, he drove the wooden boat to break through the sea and drove to the vicinity of the strange ship.
After approaching and observing carefully, Zhang Longchu, who was standing on the bow of the wooden boat, saw clearly that the strange ship that was carrying floats and sunk in the sea was like a centipede, and every limb was densely covered with scars.
It was only because the thick oil-like substance that seeped out of the hull was the same color as the hull shell, which was dark blue, so it was not easy to be discovered, and I couldn't help but think: "I just said that this ship is too unbeaten, it turns out that it has already been devastated...", hesitated, jumped from the wooden ship to the strange ship.
Leaping against the wind, passing a distance of twenty or thirty meters, he fell on the shell of the strange ship despite the torrential rain, and his feet slipped and almost fell.
"How can the deck of a battleship be so slippery, this thing may not be a battleship at all, but a weapon like a submarine..."With the F-class physical quality to comprehensively strengthen the incredible balance ability of the transcendent, stabilize the figure, Zhang Longchu wiped the rain on his face, and thought in his heart, while squatting down his body, rubbing the crack on the shell of the strange ship.
Unexpectedly, in this squat, between breaths, wisps of black and white dotted lines emerged from the strange ship and drilled into his mouth and nose.
"What's the situation..."This strange thing happened that made Zhang Longchu stunned for a moment, and thought in his heart.
After thinking for a while, he stood up, opened the strange object backpack that was slung across his shoulder, and took out the evil god skeleton inside, and in an instant, he saw countless black and white smoke seeping out of the crack of the strange ship, pouring into the empty seven orifices of the skull.
"It's really soul energy..."Seeing this scene, Zhang Longchu, who was soaked all over, widened his eyes in surprise and muttered to himself, "But how can a strange sailor contain so many human souls?"
Could it be that a lot of crew members died in the cabin wrapped in the shell...", thinking of this, he walked around the slippery hull of the strange ship, stopped in front of a crack the thickness of a bucket, squatted down again, and forced himself to dig through the crack with nausea and force, only to find that there was no end to the digging.
And constantly feeling the touch of the substance in the inner layer of the strange ship, Zhang Longchu gradually felt that what he had excavated seemed to be far from the initial judgment, the oil substance, and couldn't help but think: "This thing shouldn't be oil, so what is it, this feeling, well, a little like, like tofu...
No, it's a little softer and smoother than tofu, not like tofu to be exact, but like tofu brain, yes, this thing is like tofu brain, soft and tender tofu brain, tofu, brain, brain...", suddenly, a terrifying thought flashed in his mind, making Zhang Longchu frown and stand up suddenly.
Looking at the material that had been dug out of a large pit in the crack under his feet, he carefully observed, and saw that under the heavy downpour, except for the part that was destroyed by himself, the dark blue coloring was washed and lightened a little bit, and many shallow bulges that looked like hills appeared, and his fists were unconsciously clenched tightly.
"The thalamus, the brainstem... The brain, this is clearly the brain of some kind of animal, it turns out that the strange ship is not a seafaring vessel at all, but a biological weapon with intelligence and soul;
Or simply another intelligent creature in the evolutionary mode..."With a long sigh of relief, Zhang Longchu felt his back tingle and made his own judgment.
At the same time, the last trace of soul energy seeped out of the strange ship, and then the entire hull softened little by little under his gaze, and gradually collapsed in the rough sea.
When he felt that the strange ship under his feet could no longer bear his weight, Zhang Longchu reluctantly jumped back to the deck of the Heroic Spirit Wooden Ship, and then watched the strange ship dissolve into the sea, frowned with a look of regret, and lowered his head to break the mouth of the skull in his hand.
In an instant, the black and white smoke that had just been absorbed into the Evil God Skeleton wafted out from its seven orifices, and was inhaled into Zhang Longchu's abdomen without a single drop.
A few minutes later, when there was no more soul energy escaping from the skeleton, the regret on his face turned into surprise, and he muttered to himself: "12, there are only 12 ordinary people's soul power left, and the conditions for the growth of strange things can be satisfied."
No matter what that strange ship is, the soul energy it provides is already worth the price of my trip to Incheon..."
"Continue to move in the direction of the red clouds..."Because of his unexpected gain, he was elated for a while, thinking that in addition to the harvest, the unexpected discovery was also terrible, he gradually calmed down, looked through the rain curtain, looked at the rolling red clouds in the distant sky, and ordered in a deep voice.
"Do as you are told." Hearing this, the helmsman of the Heroic Spirit responded loudly by shaking the leather rope next to the rudder, and suddenly, a bronze bell connected to the rope under the deck sounded loudly, and hundreds of alchemists around him stepped on the pulley when they heard the sound, driving the huge propeller at the stern of the ship to rotate, and sailed into the distance through the wind and waves.
Soon after the wooden ship disappeared into the wind and rain, an inverted pyramid-shaped aviation ship with an area of 7 or 8 square kilometers and a large top and a pointed bottom broke through the dark clouds and came to the anchorage of the Heroic Spirit Wooden Ship not long ago, hovering in the air.
A few minutes later, in the core of the mothership, in the cockpit of hundreds, thousands of electronic instruments, and screens flashing with countless information streams, a middle-aged female adjutant, after collecting all the reports, immediately reported to a thin old man with an old face and an unusually strong spirit: "The last location of the captured radiation fluctuations is here, General." ”
"Is it right here," the old man said in a hoarse voice, "But why didn't I see a radiation source on the surface monitoring screen?" “”
Knowing that his commander was knowingly asking to express his psychological dissatisfaction, the female officer's face did not show any strange color, and she replied seriously: "General, according to the inference of the staff group, it is estimated that more than 99% of the radiation source is likely to have died out after the total loss..."
"99% chance, self-destruction," the old man roared through gritted teeth, "It's easy to say, but what a huge price our fleet has paid to lure one of the invaders' main battle ships into the encirclement alone;
It took a lot of effort to damage it and not destroy it, and get the opportunity to capture it, but as a result, because of the negligence of an ordinary fighter pilot, he let the target go, and all the previous efforts were wasted.
This is dereliction of duty, a crime against all mankind, I must send him to a military court, must...", and at the same time as the thin old man roared, Zhang Longchu, who was sailing in the torrential rain, finally approached the sea where the red cloud was.
Feeling the temperature around him rise suddenly, he looked up at the sky, and saw that the originally black rain clouds were too close to those strange red clouds, and they were also rendered into jet black and red colors, and the rain dripping from the sky also became a little fiery red.
Suddenly feeling that something was wrong with the situation, Zhang Longchu's pupils shrank, and he shouted loudly: "Turn around, turn first to avoid those red clouds!"
Hurry, hurry...", but I didn't expect that as soon as the roar exited, the red clouds a hundred meters away suddenly began to spiral slowly from the inside to the outside, and the tornadoes that penetrated the sea and the sky were born out of thin air, and hundreds of turbulent whirlpools were also revealed on the sea surface.
Attracted by the vortex, the Heroic Spirit Wooden Boat could not turn the rudder at all, but could only passively rotate towards the sea area shrouded in red clouds, and gradually as it continued to get closer to the red clouds, the fire in the dense rain curtain falling from the clouds became more and more serious, and finally when the wooden boat sailed under the red clouds, the raindrops were replaced by flames, and a terrifying rain of magma came down in the air.
"Damn..."In just a few seconds, he was in danger because of the abnormal celestial phenomenon, Zhang Longchu watched the invisible charm shield above his head be eroded by the fire rain, and was pierced at a speed visible to the naked eye, roared angrily, and hung the strange object backpack around his neck with extremely fast movements, his mind turned, his body continued to expand, his mouth and nose elongated, and he turned into the appearance of a giant wolf.
He was about to reconvert the Heroic Spirit Wooden Ship and its hundreds of crew members into elemental energy, but the wooden ship happened to be swept into the intersection of two reverse vortices in the middle of the sea.
Originally, according to the normal rules of physics, in this case, the power of the swirl should cancel each other out and come to naught, but at this moment, the two intertwined forces did not have any effect on each other and acted on the Heroic Spirit Wooden Boat, tearing the wooden hull that had lost the protection of the power of the spell into pieces in an instant, and dragging it into the bottomless abyss under the sea.
Fortunately, Zhang Longchu on the deck had already transformed into a silver life level at this time, and he could freely manipulate the frost ability of the demonic beast composed of the combined power of the two elements of qi and water, and the terrifying hurricane in the air and the terrifying currents in the sea were no longer likely to pose any threat to his life.
Standing on all fours in the whirlpool, Zhang Longchu, who was frightened, drove the wind to blow the rain of fire that fell towards him, calmed down, thought for a while, identified the direction, and ran towards the direction where the Taiji plane was located. (To be continued.) )
