Chapter 424: Tainted Blood Armor (I)
[Today's fourth watch, the first watch]
The Ancient Warship slowly sailed into an area where the ice floe was denser. On the surface of the hull more than 300 meters wide, there is a magic shield several meters thick. The pure water elemental shield circulates on the surface of the huge Ancient Warship, and only consumes when it hits an ice floe.
The ice floe collided with the magic shield of the ancient warship, and the small piece of ice floe slipped to the side, but the slightly larger ice floe was directly shattered.
The mechanical undead adventure opens twelve more magic furnaces and activates the battleship's defenses. The most basic defenses, but there are no loopholes.
Naris hid in the cabin, admiring the hunted cores one by one. In the past, she and Salin couldn't imagine that more than a dozen huge ninth-level demonic beasts would be slaughtered like this. Although the intelligence of these monsters is very low, there is no doubt about the strength of their attack power.
Eleven white bears provided forty-four huge ninth-level demon cores, these white bears' magic cores were completely different from the demonic beasts on the main road, and they were huge beyond imagination, because in a place like the Frozen Sea, continuous combat effectiveness was very important. Even a ninth-level demonic beast is not safe. Some of the mid-level demonic beasts in the sea, the number of which often exceeds 10,000, are extremely crazy to besiege, and they all have some attributes or skills to break the magic defense.
Nellis put away the twelve White Bear King's cores and cut only the ordinary White Bear's cores. The ninth-level magic core is extremely hard, making it more difficult to deal with than most magic metals. Neris can only use her teeth to repair it slowly.
The teeth of this little demon are even more terrifying than those of the dragon, and this is the only powerful weapon that Lologaro had before he matured. If dragons can easily gnaw on metal, then Lologara can definitely bite crystallized metal with ease.
Neris usually uses the Ultimate Transfiguration to hide the form of the little demon, but the Ultimate Transfiguration does not show any of the abilities of her little demon form, her mouth can open to a terrifying degree, and her sharp teeth can bite the throat of any kind of huge creature.
Cutting the core with her teeth is something that Neris is used to. The magic core salvaged from a shipwreck at the bottom of the sea has never been cut. Ancient humans temporarily dealt with the magic core when they used it, after all, the ancient magic array and equipment, the complexity of the specifications made the magicians feel a headache, so the ancient mages kept the magic core in a primitive state.
The mages were in their respective cabins, carefully helping the Winged Skull control the defense of the Dragonskeletal Battleship, and Saleen took the mages out to sea this time to familiarize these cronies with how to use the battleship to fight.
Saleen was in the control bay of the Dragonwreck Battleship, communicating with the water golems.
"Rosen, you did a good job this time, if you use the skill of the crystal finger again, your body will be irreversibly damaged, and at that time, maybe some of your consciousness will be lost. ”
"But my lord, Neris ......"
"You've inherited my skills, then. You are a mage, and the only thing a mage can trust is his own magic. You should be like me, good at calculation, and don't try to show your own character when it comes to invincible enemies. Rosen, you are different from me, although you can be resurrected without limit, but with each resurrection, you lose something important compared to the last time. It's almost the same as the death of our human race, it's irreversible. ”
"Losing something important?"
"Yes, you used to be very much like another me, and now you are retreating because you are weak, tough, and not confident. ”
"I lost ...... True courage!"
"Yes, in the face of strong enemies again and again, I have to win at the cost of death. You will become lacking in courage and will instead trust in fate. That's what astrologers believe, Rosen, you're a mage, believe in yourself. ”
"Lord, you have to make me think about it. The water puppet still remembered Neris's words, and when Saleen fought, he now had an indomitable momentum. He was very envious and wished that he would become such a 'person'.
"Then think about it carefully, this is the space ring I asked for from the teacher, the level is not high, but it is enough for you, this mage robe, also for you, this is a magic wand. Salin took out pieces of equipment, put them in the hands of the water puppet Lawson, and said, "In the future, I will rarely include you in the gods, you ...... If you like it, think of yourself as a human being. People are always afraid of death. ”
Seeing Salin leave, the water puppet muttered to himself, "People...... You're always afraid of death, Nicholas, you're afraid of death too, aren't you?"
Nicholas was watching the winged skeleton maneuver the dragon wreck battleship and dodge the ice floe, when he heard the water golem ask him, and Nicholas replied, "Of course I would be afraid of death, except when I was protecting my lord." ”
"If you protect your lord, won't you be afraid?"
"No, I'm still afraid. It's just that my future has been tied to the lord, and if the lord dies, then my future will not exist. If so, it's better to die. Nicholas replied lightly.
The winged skeleton's gaze passed through the crystal window and looked into the distance, and the manipulation of the battleship could finally be largely handed over to the mages. He listened to the conversation between the water golem and Nicholas, and the corners of his mouth grinned in a terrifying way.
Regardless of whether what Nicholas said is true or not, he is better than the Nelith guy, at least knowing how to help the master shape the character of the water golem. The existence of the water golem is Sarin's combat weapon, not a person. As for the mage's research interests and advanced needs, in the eyes of the Wing Skull, it is far less meaningful than a solid puppet.
The Water Golem can cast the Crystal Finger in place of Salin, which is Saleen's most powerful attack outside of the Emblem. If the water puppet refuses to sacrifice in the future, then if Saleen personally casts the crystal finger, the number of times he can release this strange magic is probably less than half of the water puppet, and the power will be reduced.
After all, Salin is flesh and blood. The left hand of the god is much slower to recover than the water golem.
Nicholas actually used another means to make the water golem loyal to Salin. Although there is almost no possibility of betrayal by the water golem, Saleen's divine harmony can take him back at any time. But his abandonment of the fight was already a huge loss for Saleen.
Wingskull doesn't understand why Saleen has let the water golems learn to be afraid.
"Lord?" Winged Skull couldn't help but beckoned in Saleen's mind.
"Soldier?" Salin was a little surprised, the winged skeleton had barely made any sound in his head since he advanced.
"Why? Rosen is not afraid of death, and it is in your best interest. ”
"Bing, only fear of losing. will know how to cherish. Life shouldn't be about giving, I'm not a god, I don't need a believer. Salin's words were a little jumpy, and the Winged Skull understood, and then fell silent.
He just said secretly in his heart: Lord, I am not afraid of death, but I also know how to cherish it.
Salin walked to Neris's cabin, followed by several clones of the mechanical undead, these doppelgangers were the same as the mechanical undead, and Salin could drive them at will, and the thought in his heart could immediately decide the life and death of these clones.
"Don't follow, go and help the Wingskull. Salin didn't look back, preventing the protection of the mechanical undead clone, on the dragon wreck battleship, he was in any position, under the protection of the winged skull, the entire battleship, equivalent to the extension of the winged skeleton's body. If there are still accidents on the battleship, it can only be said that the enemy has exceeded the combat power of himself and the winged skeleton combined.
Following the ancient warship three miles away, the mechanical undead cursed in his heart, he cursed the Lord of Radiance. He found that when he was angry, if he thought of Saleen, even if he cursed in his heart, he would be punished, but he could take his anger out on others.
In the depths of the soul fire of the mechanical undead, the piece of broken jade seemed to be monitoring his movements at all times. However, the mechanical undead equated Saleen with the Lord of Radiance, and when he cursed the Lord of Radiance, he insisted that he would not want the name of Saleen, so that he could escape punishment, or rather, Saleen was willing to listen to him curse the Lord of Radiance.
"Shit-like Lord of Radiance, why don't you let me peek at Nellis? I'm going to kill all your magicians, she! damn gods, demons, bastards, dirty pigs, rusty parts......"
The clone of the mechanical undead was unable to enter Neris's room and had to retreat. Under the command of the mechanical undead, they have always wanted to peek into the secrets of the people around Salin, especially Neris and the Winged Skull. But on the Dragonwreck battleship, everything is under the control of the Winged Skull, and the clone of the mechanical undead can't find any chance to get the secret.
The mechanical undead were not reconciled to Salin's enslavement, but the law of eternal control was too much beyond his level, even if he became a tenth, eleventh, or even twelveth-level undead, it was impossible to get rid of Sarin's control. Therefore, the mechanical undead consciously began to care about everything around Salin, trying to find the possibility of lifting the control. What he did was the same as what the Three Kings did, knowing that there was little hope, he would still try with his long life.
"Nellis. Saleen stepped into Neris's cabin and cast a silent barrier to isolate the sound from the outside world. Even if he didn't, the Winged Skull would take care of it for him.
"Master?" Neris put down the huge core in her hand and stopped biting. With her hands and feet, she picked up the fragments of the demon core, stood up, and stood obediently in front of Salin.
"Forget about Rosen's affairs this time, don't have a next time, I need to see what the soul is like when it is born. The secret of the soul is very important to my advancement, and I must become a tenth-level mage in order to have the possibility of living and completing the ...... Dream. "The contract between Saleen and the goddess Myers was not said to Neris, and he couldn't even reveal a shred of information. Neris only guessed that Saleen was in huge trouble, and she couldn't ask yet.
"Well, master. Nellis gave Salin a boyish smile, knowing that Salin had no intention of punishing her. If it were some other demon, he might have tried to control Saleen's feelings, but Neris wouldn't.
"I want to see the Ancient Warrior, there are too many of these things in the sealed cabin of the Ancient Warship, if something happens, I can't even save the mechanical undead. We have to look into it. ”
