Chapter 265: The Horror Legend of Bilgewater
Wow~
After entering the waters of Bilgewater, the air and space warships did not maintain flight mode all the time, but descended to the sea and broke through the sea.
"Newspaper... Tell the long... Official! The weather is different... Often! β
Boom!
In the captain's room, Timo's short body slammed directly into the door frame as the ship shook violently, but he finally made his words clear.
Somehow, the distance from the Blue Islands to Bilgewater Bay is not very peaceful.
Storms raged and waves rolled.
Even a giant ship as an aerospace warship can only go with the flow in front of the great power of nature.
The waves can't tip a ship over, but they can make it unusually bumpy.
The Aerospace Battleship is moving forward in the storm and waves at the moment, although the turbulence is abnormal, but for the people on the ship now, it is not a big deal.
Well... If you don't take into account the frightened and shivering Bobbys.
Even the resolute Poppy is hiding in the corner of the captain's room with a pale face at the moment, huddled with Tristana and Lulu.
Couch staggered as if he were drunk.
Instead, Anne and Ruil stood firmly, looking at each other, as if they were trying to see who could stand first.
Through the glass in front of the captain's room, Seraphine frowned slightly: "Mr. Grede, this kind of weather doesn't seem to be accidental. β
When everyone is around, at the teacher's request, she will address Grad as sir.
Wow~~~
Suddenly, a terrible sound came from the bottom of the sea.
The sound sounded, and the frightened Bobbys almost jumped. Even Seraphine was solemn:
"We're on the bottom of the boat... There are living beings! β
She could feel the breath of a soul beneath the space battleship.
Fortunately, there was no other movement after the sound.
Grad felt the gaze of his apprentice, and just smiled and shook the book in his hand:
"Captain, have you heard of the four horror legends of Bilgewater?"
"Those legends that have been around for a long time?"
Seraphine subconsciously swept the book in Grad's hand...
Anchor's Wrath
"I've heard it! I've heard it! Teemo raised his hand and volunteered, "Bloodport Ghost, Deep Sea Titan, Tidal Sea Spirit, Lord of Greed!"
All four are horrific legends that circulate in Bilgewater, and no living person has ever seen them, but they are portrayed as if they were real.
Every time I hear their stories, it is enough to make children dare not cry at night.
"Tidal Sea Spirit or Deep Sea Titanβ" Seraphine frowned.
Very well guessed the result......
They were on the sea at the moment, and the story of the ghost of the Bloody Harbor was told at the slaughterhouse, where the dissected sea beasts were handled. The Lord of Greed is a demon who bewitches humanity's greedy desires.
Seraphine glanced into the shadows, and if she did, she had no doubt that her two teachers would have done it a long time ago.
Demons, even if Lady Sindra doesn't need it, the Empire won't let go of this extremely well-controlled power.
For other regional powers, demons are a source of fear. But in Noxus, it's just a means to strengthen one's body.
Therefore, the horror legends that are in line with the current situation are only the Deep Sea Titans and the Tidal Sea Spirits.
Seraphine rubbed her temples with a headache, they were just talking, and the climate outside was a lot worse.
In fact, no matter which one it is, they are not afraid.
But the feeling of this trouble coming to the door is not so wonderful after all.
"The Tidal Sea Spirit is said to be a strange fish-man creature wreaking havoc at sea, sometimes sheltering and sometimes destroying human ships. But in general, it probably won't cause this kind of vision..."
Wow!
The Aerospace Battleship passed steadily through the 100-meter waves, and water droplets flowed down from the glass of the captain's room.
This has happened many times, and although the Tidal Sea Spirit has heard of the ability to control the sea, it has not heard of the appearance of a violent wind and rain.
Opposite...
Whether it's the book in the hands of his own teacher, or the stormy thoughts of the outside world, plus the soul that is getting closer and closer to the bottom of the sea...
All of this adds up to a point.
Seraphine took a deep breath and resolutely ordered, "Britz, the Aerospace Battleship is in the air!" The artillery is all in preparation! β
"Roger!"
Rumble!
The bottom of the air and space battleship suddenly bubbled up with a dark blue beam, and with the help of this energy, the bottom of the ship was easily lifted out of the water.
As an air-sea amphibious warfare fortress, it was designed with the enemy below in mind.
With the sound of metal opening and closing, the alloy baffle underneath the air and space battleship was lifted.
At this moment, dozens of images appeared on the central control screen of the captain's room, which were all scenes taken from the bottom of the ship down in real time.
The picture is a good revelation of the current state of the ocean, wave after wave, wave after wave.
Even though the air-space warship had already taken off nearly 100 meters, there was still sea water beating to the bottom of the ship with the waves.
Nearly ten Hex's cannon muzzles were aimed downward, and the dark blue light on them was faint, all of them were in a state of ready to fire after being charged.
"He's coming!"
As Seraphine's calm words fell, a huge whirlpool appeared in the sea directly below them.
The range of the vortex is immeasurable, and even the space warship is nothing more than a small ant compared to the vortex.
"Woo!!"
In the depths of the sea, the long, oppressive voice sounded again.
And this time, everyone can feel that a certain being is approaching!
Suddenly, Seraphine's face froze, and she said coldly:
"Britz! Aim directly below and fire indiscriminately! β
"Yes!"
Below the air-space battleship, all the gun muzzles immediately reacted, all of them were pointed vertically downward, and the energy that had been accumulated for a long time was vented.
Airplanes! Airplanes! Airplanes!
More than a dozen thick dark blue beams of light shot straight down from below the Sky Battleship.
Due to the sheer power and energy, these beams almost fused and intermingled, forming a pillar of light hundreds of meters in diameter.
The dark blue beam of light carried the power of destruction, and it was unmatched and cathartic, and it crashed into the water.
The waves were raging and the winds were raging.
In just an instant, the sea was torn apart!
The seawater in the pillar of light was instantly evaporated dry, without the slightest obstruction.
Hex's magic energy stirred, and the blue aftermath spread outward, forming waves that were ten times better than before, spreading outward in circles with a faster and more powerful attitude.
As the core of the attack, the pillar of light went all the way down, and finally it seemed to hit something.
But it was only slightly blocked, and it continued to blast downward.
Even with the barrier of seawater and high pressure, the pillar of light descended to the bottom of the sea for thousands of meters before slowly weakening.
It was also at this time that the Hex artillery stopped its energy catharsis and returned to calm.
But whether it's the rough sea below, or the weather where the sky is clear due to the aftermath, it shows that something big has happened before.
When everything is restored, the air-space warship will continue to move forward.
In the captain's room at this time, not to mention the Bobbys who were stunned by the effect of the cannon. Seraphine stood straight, silently perceiving something, and after a long time, she breathed a sigh of relief.
That one didn't mean to catch up.
But there was still a hint of shock in the depths of her eyes.
What happened today forced her to re-examine the gold content of the four horror legends.
Even after suffering from the round of Hex's cannon just now, she could still feel the soul breath remaining at the bottom of the sea.
At least under that blow, it was still alive...
"Is it dead?" Poppy asked, with a palpitation.
Even if the creature never appeared, it was enough to make them feel like they were enemies.
It's a pity, if she wasn't good at naval warfare, she really wanted to fight it with a hammer.
"How do I feel like there's nothing down there?" Teemo scratched his head in confusion.
He hadn't noticed any creatures down there, but he felt that the weather had improved a lot after the cannon had been released.
Pixar said... That monster ran away..."
Lulu's timid voice came, and Pixar, like a butterfly, landed on her purple magic hat, jumping and jumping extremely cute.
Hearing her words, the rest of the Bobby was shocked.
"What are you kidding, such a strong artillery can still run?" Tristana is incredible.
Under the near-invincible artillery bombardment, can the monster at the bottom of the sea still survive? It's not scientific at all!
"It really just ran away." Seraphine is kind of qualitative of the results.
She turned her head to Grad and asked:
"Mr. Grede, do you know anything about that monster?"
Seraphine was sure her teacher knew the monster well, but she wasn't sure if the teacher would say it.
"What do you know about the Deep Sea Titan?" Greid asked rhetorically.
"Sir, I've heard a specific story!" Anne timidly raised her hand.
"Tell me about the version you heard." Greid smiled and nodded.
Under the gaze of everyone, Anne slowly spoke:
"It is said that once upon a time in Bilgewater there was a particularly famous salvage man whose name was Notilus. Salvage seems to be a special profession, which is only available in Bilgewater. β
"Salvage people are those who are well-versed in the water and good at diving to salvage the treasures of shipwrecks. Anne was not wrong, they only lingered around Bilgewater. Seraphine added.
Anne smiled and nodded, and then recounted: "There is a tradition in Bilgewater that before the ship goes out to sea, a gold coin is thrown into the sea, which means that the sea is paid tribute to the peace, which is called the tithe. β
After a pause, Anne continued: "And it just so happens that Notilus is so convinced of tithes that it has become a creed of life. He was adamant that failure to pay tithes would have very bad consequences. β
"Some people believe in this superstition?" Ruil sneered.
Anne looked proudly: "This is not pure superstition! Once, when Notilus went to sea, he had an accident because he didn't pay his tithes! β
"This kind of person probably won't forget this kind of thing." Poppy was shocked when she heard what was going on.
Empathy, people who have also persisted will definitely not forget their perseverance.
"Notilus has not forgotten." Anne waved her little fist with anger on her face, "It was the greedy captain who deceived Notilus and lied that he had paid his tithes, and that greedy captain had to save even a single gold coin!" β
"And then?" Timo couldn't help but ask.
His eyes were full of excitement and anticipation at the moment, but there was some fear in his expression. He had only heard the name of the horror legend, and he had not dared to read the content before.
But the story... It's so exciting... Did Nautirus meet the Titan of the Deep in the back?
Imagine the Chinese network
"Later," said Anne, with a sad look in her eyes, "it was only when Notilus put on his heavy diving suit that he realized that the greedy captain hadn't paid his tithes, but he wanted to be reminded that it was too late..."
With a thud, Notilus fell into the water with a huge iron anchor in his arms.
Anne spoke emotionally about the panic after Nottilus fell into the water, especially the naturally emotional Poppys, who couldn't help but feel sorry for Notirus.
"He must have met the Deep Sea Titan, damn Captain!" Timo was indignant.
"Oh, it's safe to fly!" Couch nodded thoughtfully.
β......β
The Bobbys expressed their opinions, and basically decided that Notilus was finished, and it was the Deep Sea Titan who killed him. Being able to move in the sea and like to do things is very suitable!
Only Seraphine quietly glanced at the book in her teacher's hand...
"The Wrath of the Iron Anchor", the name contains a certain deep meaning...
"Not really!"
Anne shook her head to dismiss the Poppys' conjectures, and said with a small face and seriousness:
In the sea, Natilus felt a pull pulling from below, even breaking the locks attached to the anchor.
He could only watch in despair as the dark shadow of the ship above him faded away, clutching the heavy iron anchor and tumbling into the dark whirlpool. And then, everything fell into darkness. β
"Ah~ I see, it's a pity, if he had learned to build an airplane, he wouldn't have died." Kutch's face was full of embarrassment.
"Kutch, do you know who harmed Notilus?" Tristana elbowed the other man.
"Do you know why airplanes can fly into the sky?" "It's not just the two wings, the design has to take into account factors such as air resistance, so that the plane can float better." β
"What does this have to do with Notilus?" Tristana asked impatiently.
"Ah~ This has to be explained slowly!" Couch turned to look at Anne, "I just said that this wetsuit was designed and made by Notilus himself, right?" β
Anne nodded, she had already told her in the story.
"So, this is a very ordinary undersea accident." Couch high-fived him with a hammer, "The pressure on the bottom of the sea broke the chains that had fallen into disrepair, and then because Notilus's diving suit didn't take buoyancy into account, it had to keep sinking." β
Hearing this, the others were stunned.
If the wetsuit had a floating design, maybe Notilus would have been able to rise to the surface of the sea, even if the chain was broken.
Regardless of the tithe, the breaking of the chain and the failure to take into account the situation were the main factors in the accident.
Of course, this is a world of gods, and it's hard to say that the two are really unrelated.
"That's right! What about the Depths Titan? Aren't we telling its story? Teemo asked suddenly.
Only then did everyone realize that the protagonist of this story should be the Deep Sea Titan, not Tinolus.
Anne blinked her eyes, and said in a gloomy tone deliberately with a calm little face:
"When Notilus woke up on the seabed, he... It's not the same. β
Hearing this, most of the Poppys couldn't help but shudder, apparently guessing something.
Only Teemo was still the same as before, and said excitedly:
"Hey! Look at! Was it the Deep Sea Titan who saved him? β
"No, no, no!" The corners of Anne's mouth curled slightly, and she said in a terrifying tone: "Notilus has discovered... The huge wetsuit and iron anchor merged with him as if they were part of his body. He forgot a lot of memories, but one thing he remembered..."
"Captain, no tithes have been paid!"
"From then on, he made an oath that everyone would pay taxes to the sea, and he would be the overseer!"
"And he, Natilus, is none other than the Deep Sea Titan!"
