Chapter 170: Piercing Gong

At the twilight of the clouds, the sky seemed to be torn apart by a pair of invisible giant hands, like a grand picture scroll unfolded, and the moment the sky was cracked, the dark crack spread rapidly from the clouds, like a scar tearing the entire sky.

The cracks in the darkness widened in the sky, exuding a chilling aura.

The rift was filled with dark energy, forming a bottomless void, like a portal to the endless abyss.

Bang!

The center of the collision set off a huge wave outward, and [the keel giant ship] could only retreat in the middle of the huge waves.

On the other side, the black coffin in the center of the vortex slowly opened, a faint light came through, and slowly, the lid of the coffin began to slowly open, revealing a black gap.

As the gap widened, a chilling aura emanated from it, and the darkness inside the black coffin was like an abyss, making people feel an endless fear, like a lone star in the cold night, and with the opening of the coffin, a figure walked out of it.

It was a vivid and impressive figure.

He was a man of medium stature, but every inch of skin and muscle exuded a strength as hard as iron, as if he were made of steel. His shoulders are broad and his limbs are strong.

The man's countenance had an intimidating seriousness, and his eyes were deep-set, piercing, and sharp as an eagle; His eyes were black and unfathomable, like a bottomless abyss; The bridge of his nose was high and straight, like a sharp sword, and his sharpened chin added to his fortitude.

His hair was jet-black, like a dark shadow in the night, and it was simply tied together, revealing his forehead, where there was a deep wrinkle, like an eternal scar. His skin was pale, in stark contrast to his jet-black hair. His lips were thin and hard, like a door that closed forever.

In the cockpit of the ship, Xia Xiu squinted his eyes at the figure that appeared, and at the same time, his mind began to recall all the deeds about this 'person'.

【Vlad Dracula Tsepeš】

The owner of the "False True Ancestor's Blood", the closest non-pure-blooded vampire to [Miracle].

Originally a human, he was once the Grand Duke of the Oretin Empire and the ruler of the [Moving City Wallachia], but was later hunted down and expelled by the Empire for refusing to pay tribute to the Oretin Empire, contempt for [Moving City of Constantinople], and insulting the Purple Emperor and the Senate.

His way of ruling as a man was harsh and ruthless, and he punished criminals and his political enemies with assault punishments. It is said that he once impaled 20,000 prisoners of the Oretin Empire on Mount Targovisht.

The way he ruled earned him a position of terror among the people, but also allowed him to achieve some victories in the war against the Oretin Empire.

Later, the [Tyrant] came to [Wallachia], and the commander of the Oretin Empire personally led the army to lead the most courageous [Spartan Legion] in the empire to defeat the Piercing Prince.

The terrifying Tyrant tore [Wallachia] apart, and the Piercing Lord's left hand was cut off by the Imperial Legionnaire.

The Imperial Legion Commander holding the [Sun God's Spear] made a huge opening in the abdomen of the Piercing Male, and when the Legion Commander tried to pierce the Piercing Gong with his hand, the other party was so mad that he detonated [Wallachia].

A massive explosion caused a high level of radiation in the Crystal Sky, and a terrifying Aether Scourge began to wreak havoc across the land. The entire blast area is still a forbidden area for Oletin, and citizens, soldiers, merchants, and alienated patients in the city have all been killed in this natural disaster caused by a man-made disaster, known as the "Piercing Gong Rebellion".

The commander of the Imperial Legion who survived the explosion was furious, the legion he led lost one-third of the damage in the explosion, and all the citizens of the empire died in this war, he went crazy to check the explosion area, searched for three days and three nights, and still did not find the body of the piercing man.

The unwilling Legion Commander wanted to continue the search, but at that time, the Senate of the Oretin Empire began to condemn the mistakes and losses of his team, and the Senate forcibly recalled the [Tyrant] and the Legion, and convened the [Peloponnesian War Council] to discuss the Legion's mistakes.

Later, the Piercing Male disappeared from the world and was not seen for a long time.

And when everyone thought he was dead, he reappeared as a vampire, joined the [Secret Alliance], and became even more insane, and began to die in Terra even more unscrupulously.

At this moment, Vlad, who was floating above the 81st level, was wearing armor full of power and majesty, and he opened his arms and breathed heavily in the huge tide of aether.

He wears a set of dark armor with various symbols and motifs engraved on it, including the former [Wallachia] coat of arms and his personal emblem, the dragon.

[Armor of Dracula], a mythical armor forged by dissolving the trophies of a 300-meter-high seed tree after the Oretin Empire conquered the [Elven Court], and later this armor was given to the Piercing Prince, who has not yet revealed the ambition of the wolf, and it is worth noting that this armor also has a finely carved cross hanging on it. It is a gift from Heaven, yes, it is indeed a gift from Heaven.

During the crusade against the aliens, the kingdom of heaven and the Oretin empire had a long honeymoon period, and people at that time thought that after the conquest of the aliens, Terra would usher in a beautiful new future.

Unfortunately, the Kingdom of Heaven and the Oretin Empire eventually went against each other, and the Piercing Duke was the witness, participant, and promoter of this history.

Xia Xiu always felt that the Piercing Guild was picked up by the Red King, and it was purely a smell of attraction.

When the Piercing Gong was still opening his arms and enjoying his freedom, Xia Xiu had already activated the second [Great Secret Instrument] to blast at the other party, which made the face of Turs, who had been watching from the sidelines, turn green.

Big brother, you don't even go through the format, and besides, that's [the crowner]!!

"If you have any hole cards and any follow-up plans, release them quickly, otherwise I think it's more cost-effective to find a piece of cake to kill now." Turce gritted his teeth and said to the blonde youth.

"Don't worry, believe me, I still have a backup plan, it's very stable."

The blonde youth turned his head and gave a thumbs up to the fox-eared boy with erect hair, grinning toothily.

Are you sure? I don't believe it!

Turce's face was full of disbelief, and he turned his head tremblingly, watching the flame greatsword slash at the dragon-armored piercing male in front of him.

The Flame Greatsword rose high to meet the enemy in the sky, the sword body burning with raging flames and a roaring roar, like an enraged flame beast, slashing through the air, the blade glowing with a blazing red light, bringing a wave of blazing air.

The flames spread, forming a blade of flame, like a fiery dragon in the sky.

The giant sword kept pulling closer to the piercing man, and as the giant sword pierced through the piercing man, an ivory black aura floated behind his head in an elegant and serene way, and the entire ivory black aura was covered with dense cracks, which made it look like a work of art that shattered at the touch of a button.

The color around the aura was a dull purple-black, as if smoke was spreading in the darkness. It bends and twists to form irregular patterns that exude an eerie vibe. Around the aura, black light swirls in the vortex as if it were alive, exuding a demonic aura.

When the aura appeared, a gorgeous cross-sword also appeared on the right hand of the Piercing Male.

The hilt of the sword, made of finely polished black ivory and decorated with a silver tinsel vein, is intricately shaped like a spreading thorn that shows some kind of bitter fate, and the top and bottom of the hilt are inlaid with blood-red gemstones.

The sword is about one meter two long, moderately wide, and extremely sharp. The blade is made of the purest steel, smooth as a mirror, with a crimson line in the center of the blade, like flowing blood, and the sharp tip of the sword, highlighting its powerful lethality.

The sword's cross-shaped lattice is made of gold-plated copper with a black gemstone in the center, resembling a star in the night sky.

The Piercing Male held his ornate crosssword aloft and fell at the flaming greatsword.

Click-

When the long sword fell, the crack of the [crown] behind the piercing male appeared again, and the already broken aura became even more fragile.

【Crown Blessing: Sword of Cain!】 】

"Whoever kills Cain will be punished sevenfold—]

A powerful force erupted from the blade, piercing through the entire flame greatsword at an astonishing speed.

Boom –

The flames on the surface of the sword body surged violently, emitting a dazzling firelight. With the impetus of that force, the flame greatsword split in half in an instant, and the flames on the blade roared like two surging flaming dragons into the sky.

The two sections of the blade parted with astonishing force, accompanied by a rumbling roar, slicing through the surrounding air, forming a crack of the utmost grandeur.

The Piercing Male's slash did not stop after slashing the [Great Secret Instrument], it continued to move forward, and then slashed under the force field shield of the [Dragonbone Warship].

Bang!!!

The entire ship crumbled under the slash, like a huge fortress under heavy impact.

Rumble –

The gears and mechanical components of the metal armor rubbed and turned violently, emitting a piercing and powerful roar, as if to declare the indestructible will to the enemy.

The steam pump spews out billowing steam, which flows through the beast's body, infusing it with powerful energy that keeps it running in the wind and rain. The steam intertwines with the moisture in the environment, creating a mysterious and fiery atmosphere.

【Warning! Warn! Warn! 】

[Force Field Shield Shattered!! 】

[The ship is under attack!] 】

[The ship is under attack!] 】

[Current Damage: 8.89% (still in normal operation-)]

The walls and floor of the cabin resonated with metal, accompanied by the roar of a vibrating machine, as if the entire cabin was shaking with the ship's shaking. The steam pump spewed out billowing steam, filling the cabin and making the already restless cockpit even hotter and dreary.

"Damn, Abraham, if you have any tricks, hurry up, I'm afraid if you don't use it again, we will die!" Tours summoned the Juggernaut Avatar and let it hold him tightly.

"Don't worry, you will die if you get out of the ship now, and you didn't notice that the Piercing Gong is standing there and can't move. The successful stuck point of our initial blow allowed him to revive early, he is now in the eye of the [Aether Tide] that he created and cannot move, and now he is a live target, while he can't move now, consume a wave first. ”

Xia Xiu's hands turned into afterimages and frantically manipulated the various templates in the ship, while calmly answering Tours' questions, his golden eyes were now focused on his enemy.

"You guys prepare, the other side is about to launch a broadside battle, the next process is very important, I must complete the pre-consumption before the piercing male triggers the [Aether Tide] Twisted Spirit Tomb to descend on the fog capital, and I must force out the few [crown commands] he can use now."

The blonde youth's gaze was focused and sharp, staring into the depths of the storm, as if he could see the unconquered challenge. The corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a heartfelt smile, his face was resolute and excited, his eyes were as hot as fire, full of determination and pride to conquer the storm.

[Salvo Mode Activated!] 】

Sisss –

The entire ship was filled with a buzzing mechanical roar.

The huge gears turned behind them, making a deep roar, as if a star in the universe was waking up, the steam pump continued to spew out billowing steam, the heat filled the interior of the ship, the breath of steam melted into the entire cabin, and the crew felt the surge of energy and the release of power.

[Weapon Authority: All Liberated!] 】

The behemoth's weapon system was instantly ready, and rows of huge artillery guns were aimed at the target.

The rotation of the gears fed the ammunition into the magazine, and the muzzle of the gun emitted a blue electric light, like a laser-cut phantom.

[Is it full power output?] 】

【Already selected!】 】

[Start full power output mode!] 】

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

As the order was given, the steel behemoth let out a deafening roar at the same time, and the powerful impact caused the entire ship to stagger.

Cannons roar out from all corners of the behemoth, each cannon with an air of destruction, the caliber of the cannon is vast, and the flames gush out, with a sci-fi color of steampunk.

The ammunition shot out of the barrel of the cannon, piercing the sky like a silver lightning bolt, drawing a beautiful and ferocious arc in the air.

Each shell was fired with a huge shock wave, and the surrounding air was compressed into a solidified mass.

The mechanical components inside the behemoth's body work in tandem with the steam pump to provide a constant supply of energy to the cannon.

Qiang –

Bang!!!

Qiang –

Bang!!!

The Piercing Gong wielded the [Sword of Cain] and slashed through the dense firepower, and the cannonball was hit, releasing a huge burst of energy that stirred up a cloud of fire and smoke.

The Behemoth's firepower in salvo mode covers a wide area, and every shell brings devastating damage, like a comet descending.

A phantom began to appear behind the piercing man, who was constantly fighting back, and then, the phantom quickly disappeared and disappeared around him.

As a witness of the times who had experienced the [War of 100 Ships], he certainly knew how dangerous it was for him to let the ships carry out fire coverage now.

And he also knows how dangerous it is to lose control of a ship.

In Terra's recent history of transcendent ship warfare, broadside warfare and counter-broadside warfare have always been an unavoidable point.

At this moment, inside the shaking ship, a warning suddenly popped up that made everyone's faces change.

[Warning!! 】

[There is an unauthorized message to board the ship!] 】

The moment the bright red pop-up window appeared, Xia Xiu did not hesitate to activate the [hat trick], [Body Blur] quickly covered his whole body, and at the same time, the azure pistol appeared on his right hand; Tours's [Juggernaut Incarnation Venamoning] did not hesitate to divide twenty [Mirror Projections] and rushed in the direction of Xia Xiu; Broly's blood was boiling, and he instantly entered the [Transe State], and [Beowulf] raised his silver sword and headed in the direction of Xia Xiu; One week was the most responsive of all, and before Tours and Broly could react, [Zorro] was already in front of Xia Xiu.

Boom –

Xia Xiu, who opened the [Body Void], had a slight wound on his neck, and the ARad field that should have been Void Body was suppressed by something, and he knew that this was the [Myth Factor: Information Reconstruction] under the command of the [Crowner]; And at this moment, in front of him, an anthropomorphic avatar.

The avatar has silver-gray skin all over the body, and has a slender and sturdy body. His head is surrounded by a dark "shadow" that makes his facial features unrecognizable. He has long arms and four fingers on each hand, each with sharp black nails on the tips of each finger. He has a crimson mark on his chest that looks like an ancient spell symbol.

【Incarnation of Domination: Cain's Replacement (I)】

Just now, his slender index finger quickly reconstructed the ARad field after touching the [Body Blur], which took about 1.8 seconds, which is undoubtedly unqualified for a [Crowner] to reconstruct the ARad field for more than 2 seconds, which also directly proves the weakness of the piercing man at this time.

Taking advantage of this slight gap in time, Zorro's silver rapier had already slashed at the opponent's body, knocking them back a small step and leaving a wound in their chest.

At this moment, Xia Xiu's body was already raised back, and at the same time, he held [Gorgon] with both hands and aimed at the forehead of [Cain's Substitute], and pulled the trigger; More than 20 [Venamoning] shot out more than 20 mirrored long snakes, shooting at the enemy; Broly's blood-colored punches and Beowulf's terrifying slash also slashed towards the avatar.

In an instant, offense and defense change shape!

Rumble!!!
