Chapter 318, Crab Rising from the Sea
The northbound team sailed in a steamship produced by Klose, bypassing the nearly dry Benlei River into the strait, heading in the direction of the Red Sea.
Because this is a sensitive time, Lana keenly captures the possibilities behind this matter.
The Octopus Boss pretended to be sick and returned to his lair, and the Holy See entered the Lane Continent with great fanfare. They must have made some kind of deal with the pirate leader!
According to Tahitian lizardmen, the Octopus pirates have invested a lot of manpower in attacking Tahiti in an attempt to monopolize it. It seems that the pirate king is no longer satisfied with being the king of the seven seas, but wants to be the king of the land.
In this way, it is not difficult to guess that the pirate king colluded with the Holy See to invade Tahiti. The Holy See is for the hell portal there, and the octopus is for the vast expanse of land. The two of them take what they need, and they are embarrassed, which is really hateful!
Although this time, Klose only asked Maruko and Filin to go to find out the news. But the covert forces of Crow City are also preparing to land in Tahiti on the other side.
This battle across the channel was led by Olivia, planned by Lana, and made decisions by Klose.
Not only do they now have a few copycat versions of steel ships in their hands. Moreover, the airships purchased from the Duke of Hain are still being transported to the Magic Forest in a steady stream.
With the help of the dwarf girl Shufen, the steel giants were successfully equipped with the weapons that Klose had in mind. And even those airships, with the assistance of Shufen's various whimsical ideas, have made a qualitative leap!
Yes, the little dwarf beauty was already shocked when she saw those heavy equipment on Klose's territory! After her in-depth research and disassembly, some of the instruments that could not be used for the time being were disassembled into parts.
Although she can't completely restore the highly developed civilization products of another world, she has gained a lot of inspiration.
The collision of the brain circuits of Shufen and Hu Bolu has produced a new spark~! It has raised the weapons that Klose has at this stage to another notch.
It can also be said that Yuanzi and Fei Lin also disrupted the enemy's line of sight when they went north to reconnoiter this time. What they really have to do is cross the strait and retake Daxidi!
On the other side, the silver lion Sieg had already sensed the strange behavior of the Holy City. The spies stationed in the Holy City have sent the news back to the Misty Lands, and the Alliance has learned that there are many strangers in the Holy City during this time, and none of them are like the natives of the Lane Continent.
This discovery shocked the Ragnarok Alliance! But everyone tacitly chose to be silent on the surface, and did not let the Holy King see any special clues. Even his former allies, the Vipers, chose to remain silent.... They didn't expect that this so-called holy king had abandoned the dignity and glory of being an old royal family, and actually colluded with foreign enemies to lure wolves into the house, which was really a bad move!
Of course, how to teach the Holy City and the Holy King is a matter of the situation.
Xiaoyuanzi and Filin need to find out the cause of the damming of the Benlei River. If you can, you can also teach the king of the seven seas a lesson... Their task was accomplished.
The steamship that Klose sold to the king's brother was actually a converted troop carrier.
It doesn't have any offensive power, just a slow ironclad ship that can move without sails.
Yes, its speed can be described by the word "slow". The first is that he is not prepared to sell his cutting-edge technology to Philip, and the second is to make sure that they do not arrive at their destination so quickly. They need to give their opponents enough time to spot their whereabouts and attract their attention.
I have to say that Klose is not worried about the safety of Yuanzi and Filin, even if these two can't fight to protect themselves, it's still no problem.
However, he did not expect that Philip, the king, would go north with the team.... But even if he knew, Klose wouldn't change his plans. Who made him and this pockmarked two look at each other incompatibly?
Slow steamboats emit black smoke and make a detour north through the Dead Sea bay. Walking up the coast of the open sea, Philip finally couldn't help but say angrily on the sixth day: "This TMD boat is not as fast as Lao Tzu climbs!" When will we get to the Red Sea!? This damn bastard, what kind of shit he sold me! ”
Yuanzi's big eyes glared, and the angry Holger IV was full of excitement, and then stopped in a stupid manner.
"Yelling what? What do you say you're yelling about? Do you think this trip is out to take a break and see if the scenery is not good? It's good enough to be able to sail without sails, but do you want it to be lightning fast? You have the ability to build one. ”
Philip blushed at the choking of the ball, but he didn't dare to refute it. Our aggrieved king almost didn't suffocate his internal injuries!
Nehemeyah and the other Praetorian Guards looked at each other, looking at each other, completely unable to hear or see.
Filin was still sweating and playing a round.
He really didn't want to go out to do things with this senior sister! Almost every arrangement she makes is freewheeling, and she doesn't act according to her plan at all. But fortunately, with themselves in the way, this time the general direction of their travel still did not deviate.
Suddenly, just as Fei Lin was persuading the senior sister not to scold the emperor, many blisters suddenly appeared on the sea in the distance.
"Well, what's that?"
Filmin put his hand on the pergola and looked into the distance and said.
Filled with curiosity, the ball rose to the steamship's mast lookout and looked past the sailor's goggles.
"Wow~~~ Something finally came out! I'm going to vomit on a boat ride these days~~ I'm bored to death~! ”
In the lens of Matsuko's lookout glass, she sees a huge crab rising from the gurgling and bubbling sea shortly after?!
Yes, she's sure it's a crab! Although it is a little bigger, it looks no different from a crab.
"Hey ~ Film~~~ It's a big crab! Let's grab it for a crab dinner tonight! ”
Film's head is black.... The heart said, "How are you going to catch such a big crab?"
However, although the crab was big, Fei Lin did not have any worries about the safety of his senior sister. He didn't think Yuanzi's words were a joke, but he still had to vomit after routine complaints.
When Philip and the others saw such a big sea monster crab, they all nervously took out their weapons!
Of course, most of them took out longbows and hands. Crossbow. The steamship was not equipped with any weapons, not even a bed crossbow.
Philip gritted his teeth and took a spear from the side.
"Everyone prepare to defend ~~ Prepare to meet the enemy~~!"
At this moment, our aggrieved king seems to have found a little bit of the majestic posture that he once commanded his men to gallop on the grassland. Under his command, the Guards methodically set up a defensive formation. Our king and the chief knight of Nehmeyah were at the forefront, invisibly encircling the film and the circle still on the lookout.
"Wow~~, goo~~!"
The big crab brandished two huge crows, roared wildly, and then rushed in the direction of the steamer. It looks like he was going to knock the ship over directly.
Yuanzi excitedly threw down the lookout and stood on the edge of the lookout, watching Philip with a shock.
"Hey madwoman! What are you going to do? Beware of falling to your death! Don't you see there's a monster? ”
Yuanzi pouted: "What kind of monster, isn't it just a dinner?" ”
Okay, she directly qualified this crab monster, it's just a dinner...
I don't know if the crab heard Yuanzi's words, and was originally majesticly fiddling with the turtle to kill, but its body subconsciously stiffened and hesitated for a few seconds.
But perhaps because he didn't find an existence that could pose a threat to himself, he rushed forward again waving a big ao.
At the moment when the big crab beast was about to approach the ship, one of Filin's spells had already been recited.
He pushed his hands forward, and a wall resembling a light curtain stopped in front of the steamer.
The big crab slammed into the curtain wall with a "bang", causing ripples, but it failed to shatter the curtain wall.
But immediately after, the crab raised the big ao in anger and smashed it continuously on the curtain wall! The ripples were swaying more often, and the curtain wall was showing signs of collapsing.
Yuanzi stood on the high lookout platform and shouted dissatisfiedly: "Feilin, don't be troublesome, quickly remove your curtain wall, look at me!" ”
Filmin reluctantly folded his hands and retreated the curtain wall.
The crab was smashing hard, and the obstacle in front of it suddenly dissipated, and its body suddenly staggered forward.
Yuanzi saw the opportunity at this time, and jumped directly from the high lookout with a kick of his calf!
She rushed down with her big head, and plunged her head into the huge sea crab, and Philip was terrified when she saw the words in her mouth.
"Is the madwoman not alive? Is she going to kill herself? ”
Fei Lin smiled and hurriedly comforted: "Your Majesty, don't worry, Senior Sister Yuanzi is still handy to deal with this level of demonic beasts, you can first order your cooks to prepare condiments in advance, and we have crab meat to eat at night." ”
