Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Fish-Man's Means
"Is the Seven Rings spell blessed by the manipulating water flow circle turbulent? It should still have the effect of rushing water. The www.biquge.info of Pen, Fun, and Pavilion is worthy of being a water race, and his talent in water spells really can't be underestimated!" Sensing the chain of waves like a hill above the water, a trace of solemnity flashed in Luo Sheng's eyes.
Although the fish-man race is ignorant and savage, they can survive in the cruel competition of the Ymir continent, and even live well, and they do have their own two brushes. Although it is not as good as the sea giant, the Naga Siren, but in the water, the fish-man is also a tyrant. If such a means of manipulating the flow of water were to be used in the sea, except for the real magic warship, the other ships would be vulnerable to attack at all. And even if the water volume of the Xile River is far from being comparable to that in the sea, the power of this attack is definitely not much inferior to the ordinary Nine Ring Magic.
Of course, compared to the Nine Rings Spell, which has a more condensed core power, although the overall power of this attack is strong enough, it is mainly based on the power of the river itself, and the core mana does not completely exceed the limit of the Seven Rings Spell. And this is also the reason why after the fleet used the seventh-order guardian scroll in time, two-thirds of the transport ships were able to survive a series of huge waves.
However, even though most of the ships survived the first round of the attack with the power of the guardian scroll due to Luo Sheng's timely warning, the situation was still extremely unfavorable to the fleet's side. The guardian scroll of the Seven Rings is sealed with the Seven Rings Divine Technique-the Divine Guardian Enchantment. This spell is extremely defensive against spells, but it is not insulated from the impact of the river.
Even though the powerful slapping force of the giant wave was cut by half by the guardian barrier, it was not enough to destroy the ship, but the people in charge of guarding the ship were still washed away. With the exception of a few strong and reactive men, most of the crew was swept into the water by the huge waves. Even the people who can be selected to join the transport fleet basically have a good water nature, but in this violent current, they can't control their bodies, don't rush around.
And at this moment, hundreds of fishmen also appeared from the fork of the river in front of them, wrapped in blood-colored red light, like swift swordfish, rushing towards the fleet swaying in the huge waves. Almost instantly, several fish-man guards who rushed to the front had already slaughtered the flotilla and slaughtered the overboard humans who were swept forward.
"Is the double fish-man wrath coupled with the high-level group speed swimming technique?It seems that it is really the means of the top clan of the fishmen in the North Sea!" Glancing at the fish-man troops rushing from above, Luo Sheng confirmed his previous judgment even more.
Whether it is assisted by various low-level spells, combined with the magic circle and the surrounding natural conditions, to enhance the power of high-level spells, or to double the blessing of the troops with fighting spirit and spells, it requires the accumulation of a lot of knowledge and inheritance, and it is a means that can only be possessed by profound forces. And among the North Sea Fishmen, the vast majority of tribes can't do this, and only the most powerful tribes have such ability.
And this kind of means, which is generally only used in big wars, is extremely astonishing for the improvement of combat effectiveness. Not to mention that the Seven Rings spell 'Waves' had been increased to the attack power of the Nine Rings, the blessing of the Double Fish-Man Fury alone had almost increased the combat power of these hundreds of fish-man troops based on black iron and bronze. With the advantage of fighting in the water, even the black iron rank of the fishman can suppress the guards of the human bronze rank, and the bronze rank, which is much weaker than the human rank, can barely compete with the human silver rank master. The tide of the battle under the water turned in favor of the fish-people almost instantly.
However, the flotilla was not powerless to fight back, and after surviving the attack of the huge waves, the magically blessed ballistas on the two warships fired at the underwater fish-man troops, instantly killing more than a dozen fish-men who had not yet rushed below the fleet. Then a huge silver-tier crocodile suddenly appeared in the water and killed several fish-man guards rushing to the front. At the same time, three green arrows and a dozen black crossbow arrows flew out and shot towards the silver-rank fishman leader at the core of the fish-man force. Although some fishmen tried to intercept them, this round of counterattacks still left the two silver-rank fishman leaders seriously injured.
Obviously, the human masters of the escort fleet have reacted and begun to fight back. And the first target of the attack is the fishman leader who provides blessings for the entire fish-man army. Without the blessing of the fighting spirit of these two fish-man leaders, the combat effectiveness of the entire fish-man army will drop significantly, and it may even collapse directly.
But before the human side could get excited, several warm white lights lit up on the two fish-man leaders at the same time. Under the illumination of the white light, the two fish-man leaders not only removed the poison from the crossbow arrows, but also quickly healed the injuries caused by the silver-rank rangers. Then under the surprised gaze of the human master on the boat, the figure disappeared into the water.
"I'm X, a high-level restoration technique, a high-level antidote technique, and a scroll of a high-level stealth technique!When did the TMD fish-man be so arrogant!" Before releasing the silver-level crocodile and attacking the leader of the crown prince's guard led by the fish-man, the silver-level ranger Eden couldn't help but scold when he looked at the disappeared fish-man leader.
Although the Fishman is unique in terms of water spells, it is much worse than the average caster in terms of other spells. Even the gold-level sacrifice of the fish-man does not have the ability to make a scroll with a special function such as a high-level restoration technique and a high-level stealth technique. At present, the leader of the fish-man army can use this method, obviously there are already human forces and fish-people joining forces.
However, scolding and scolding, Eden did not slow down the frequency of his shots. While commanding his crown prince's personal guards to intercept the fishmen, he constantly cooperated with his animal companions to attack the leaders of the fishmen. The humans on the other ships also took action, some of them were responsible for salvaging the crew members who had fallen overboard, and some of them took up long-range weapons and attacked the fish-people underwater. The reinforcements that Kelly brought from Xuelong Pass were distributed around the ships in an organized manner to intercept the fishmen who tried to sneak in and scuttle the boats. After all, judging from the remnants of the last fish-man attack, the fish-men first scuttled through some of the ships before they quickly won the victory.
Summing up the lessons learned from the collapse of the first transport fleet, this time the transport fleet prepared various countermeasures before departure. Although he was caught off guard by the huge waves created by the fishmen with spells, after surviving the first round of the enemy's onslaught, various means on the side of the fleet were also used one after another, and the situation was gradually pulled back by the humans. Although the underwater battle was still dominated by the fishmen, Kelly's team protected their ships. And the human warriors on the ship, with the help of sophisticated long-range weapons, constantly attack the fish-people underwater, weakening the power of the fish-people step by step.
Seeing that the fleet had been united with the fish-men and showed no signs of rapid collapse, Luo Sheng, who had escaped the fish-man troops, was relieved and did not turn back to join the battle group, but instead swam towards the fork in the river that the fish-men rushed out.
In addition to the group that has already joined the warband, the fish-man raiders must have a team of spellcasters hiding nearby. After all, relying on the dozen or so spellcasters who had already participated in the battle at most, they could not cast the seven-ring spell 'Waves' that was so powerful before.
Compared to the fish-man army, which has been entangled by the prepared human warriors, the team of spellcasters hidden in the shadows is the biggest threat. If they were allowed to perform the powerful 'Waves' again, then the human side would probably collapse in an instant. After all, the guardian scrolls prepared by the fleet are very limited, and they are simply not enough to withstand the attack of the next great wave. Without a boat as a foothold, the fish-people can completely abuse humans in the water.
After turning into the fork river, Luo Sheng did not swim directly upstream, but carefully sensed the underwater environment, searching for the source of the initial magic fluctuations. A moment later, relying on the powerful perception of thirty points, Luo Sheng discovered an underwater dark hole hidden by aquatic plants, with subtle magic fluctuations in it.
After discovering the dark hole, Luo Sheng quickly swam over without hesitation. Using underwater holes and hidden rivers for concealment is one of the best ways for fish-people. When Luo Sheng chased and killed the fishmen in the North Sea, he was deceived by the fishmen's hands, and missed the opportunity to kill the enemy several times. Therefore, after Luo Sheng learned his lesson, he paid special attention to the underwater terrain, and instead relied on this to severely damage the fish people several times. And now it seems that the habits of the fish-people have not changed much, and they still like to use those few tricks.
As soon as he approached the dark hole, Luo Sheng discovered the magic circle that hid the magic fluctuations, and at the same time, he also sensed the huge magic fluctuations that were hidden by the magic circle. Apparently, the Fish-Man's team of spellcasters was hidden somewhere in the underwater cavern, preparing for a second spellcast. Judging by the perceived magic fluctuations, the other party's preparations should have been completed for the most part, and the second round of attacks was about to begin.
After confirming the enemy's location and situation, Luo Sheng did not rush directly into the dark hole. Although it is impossible for the fish-man to let the most valuable and powerful gold-level spellcaster in the tribe venture into the inland river, the fishman who can preside over the magic circle and cast the powerful seven-ring spell is at least the pinnacle of the silver rank. And the guards around him are definitely not too weak, plus the other fish-man spellcasters who cooperate with the spell, it is definitely a force that is not much weaker than the fish-man troops outside.
Rushing in without preparation will not only directly touch the vigilance array arranged by the opponent, but will not achieve the effect of a sneak attack, and it will be easy to be besieged by the enemy. Even if Luo Sheng was very confident in his strength, he didn't dare to do such a fool's thing.
The fact that he can't rush in directly doesn't mean that Luo Sheng doesn't have the means to deal with it. Now that most of the opponent's spells have been prepared, it is too late to go back to ask for the support of the masters in the fleet, so Luo Sheng directly took out a bottle of blood-red potion, urged it with mana, and poured it into the dark hole.
"Taste the gift I have prepared for you!"
