Chapter 70: The Giant Sea Serpent
Lan Lan ran wildly all the way, and finally found Long Ming and them.
"Help!" Lan Lan ran with a red face, a blue hair was raised, and a dozen table-sized vampire bats flew in the air behind her.
"Attack!" Long Ming was also startled when he saw the menacing vampire bat, and immediately ordered an attack.
At the same time, he also chanted a magic spell and unleashed more than a dozen light swords to attack. Spark and Helian Ziyun released fireballs and ice picks, respectively, and two other fire mages and two lightning mages also released attack magic.
When the big bats encountered such a dense magic attack, they also began to fight back, opening their mouths and spewing out red circles of light that collided with Long Ming's magic.
Vampire bats are low-level magical beasts, and judging by the way they attack, they should be water-type magical beasts. Because the aperture they release is formed by blood gas, the principle is similar to that of water magic. These red apertures have a strong adhesion, which can trap the attack magic released by Long Ming and them, and explode directly!
"Keep attacking!" Long Ming was shocked when he saw their magic neutralized by the bat's aura, and ordered a fierce attack.
However, it didn't work very well, but a few vampire bats were injured and landed.
"Okay...... Teleportation!" Long Ming finally thought of a way to deal with vampire bats, and he chanted a spatial magic spell to move the vampire bats directly, allowing them to attack each other.
Sure enough, the vampire bats were controlled, reversed direction, sprayed apertures of light from each other, and one by one they were lassoed and fell to the ground, and the magicians bombarded together again, and finally killed all the vampire bats.
"Lan Lan, why did you attract so many bats?" Long Ming breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Lan Lan who was panicked.
"I don't know where they came from, so I chased the mouse, and all of a sudden a bat flew out to bite the mouse, and I killed it, and then a bunch of bats flew in, and I ran back. Lan Lan gasped.
"We can't stay here for long, maybe there are still a lot of bats on this island, although they are only low-level magical beasts, but once there are more of them, we will not be able to deal with them. Long Ming knew that bats were social magical beasts, and immediately took countermeasures.
He asked the sailors to fill the barrels with some fresh water and walked straight back to the big ship.
"Aren't it just a few bats, don't be so scared? I want to walk around again." Spark was a little unhappy when he heard that he was going back to the big ship.
"No, it's dangerous here, go back now, it's an order!" Long Ming said solemnly.
"Cut, what kind of shelf, you won't protect me if you're in danger, how did you promise the teacher?" Spark glanced at him and complained.
Helian Ziyun on the side was unhappy when he heard this, and said: "Why do you want my husband to protect you, he is only responsible for protecting me! If you want to stay, stay, husband, let's go!"
Helian Ziyun pulled Long Ming forward.
"I'm his sister!" he promised the teacher to protect me!" Spark got angry.
"I'm still his wife!hmph!" Helian Ziyun didn't budge.
"You ......" Spark stomped his foot in anger.
"Okay, don't make a fuss, hurry up, wait for the bats to come again!" Long Ming saw them arguing, and his head hurt again.
At this moment, countless vampire bats flew out from the middle of the island, overwhelming and fierce!
"Crow's mouth!" Spark took the opportunity to scold Long Ming.
"Alright, run!" Long Ming led everyone to quickly run back to the big boat, and at the same time released the attack magic behind him.
The island was small, so they quickly returned to the big ship, and Long Ming immediately ordered the big ship to be started and use the steam engine to drive the big ship forward.
However, the vampire bats chased after them and kept circling the big ship, so Long Ming and the others had no choice but to release magic to attack, and at the same time let the warriors shoot arrows to attack.
"They shouldn't leave their habitat, and we can get rid of them by getting away from this island as soon as we get away. Long Ming saw that there were too many bats, and comforted everyone.
But the big ship didn't know how long it had been running, and the bats still had no intention of retreating, but attacked more fiercely!
"Husband, what should I do?" Helian Ziyun walked up to Long Ming, a little scared.
"Don't be afraid, just hold on a little longer. Long Ming said softly.
At this moment, there was a turning point, and a behemoth rushed out of the sea, stirring up waves and shaking the big ship, it was a giant sea snake!
It opened its mouth and devoured the vampire bats flying in the air!
"Ah, it's a sea snake!" Helian Ziyun hugged Long Ming tightly in fright.
"Good time, let them eat each other, let's go!" Long Ming ordered the sailors to increase their firepower and get out of here quickly.
The vampire bats were devoured by the sea serpents one by one, and they were also angry, and they were numerous, and they were going to compete with the sea snakes today.
The vampire bat angrily spewed out a circle of light at the sea snake, but there was more than one sea snake, and suddenly, the waves stirred up, and several sea snakes came out from the sea to devour the bat, which was a rare feast for the sea snake.
"Wow, it's spectacular!" Lan Lan watched excitedly as several sea snakes devoured bats.
"It's still spectacular, it's better to get out of here quickly!" Long Ming said.
"It's a disappointment, let's see if it's okay. Lan Lan gave him a blank look.
Naturally, the sailors didn't dare to stop for a moment, adding flame magic crystals to the steam engine, hoping to get rid of these terrifying demonic beasts quickly, otherwise they might be swallowed by the sea serpent in one bite!
Long Ming and the others continued, and the Dragon Fist was now leading the men and horses out of the Grand Canyon. Out of the Grand Canyon is to the boundary of the Starry Night Province, Dragon Fist is ready to find a city to rest first, and then slowly find a way to recruit troops.
They walked for a long time, and finally came to a small city, this city is called Tees, and like the city of Fortin they retreated to last time, it is a provincial border city, but the two cities are far away.
And there is one industry that is very well developed in this Tees City, and that is gambling. Although the city is small, it is indeed full of large and small casinos, and it can be said that the residents here all open casinos, and those who gamble money are outsiders.
"Marshal, the city we are coming to now is a famous gambling city, do you really want to come here to recruit troops?" Sun Wei asked Dragon Fist as soon as he entered Teese City.
"Hehe, the casino is good, we can go and play two in addition to recruiting. Dragon Fist laughed.
"Marshal, I'm worried that none of the gamblers here are willing to join the army, they are so willing to gamble as much as their lives, and if they are forcibly co-opted, they may resist. Sun Wei said.
"We'll figure it out slowly. Dragon Fist said as he led the army into the casino.
He asked the army to find an open field to camp, and then he and a few generals found the largest casino in the area, ready to play.
