Chapter 452: Deep Sea Behemoth

The Kingdom of Paramet is located in the southeast of the Middle Continent, this country is surrounded by the sea on both sides, and the northwest border is bordered by the Sith Kingdom, the Stark Kingdom, the Rex Kingdom, and the Grand Duchy of Caroline. Although the Kingdom of Pamela is not very strong in terms of national strength, it is located in the headquarters of the Dawn Church, and the surrounding countries do not dare to intrude, and it is also special among the eastern countries of the Central Continent.

Since he agreed to the request of the Holy Radiance Empire, Richard began to dispatch troops, and the first batch of troops included the First Infantry Brigade, the First Monster Cavalry Brigade, the Magic Airship First Brigade, the Bipedal Dragoon Cavalry Brigade, and the First Independent Artillery Brigade, with a total strength of about 5,000 people.

In June 3277, the army directly under Haaland had about 160,000 people, including 120,000 regular troops and 40,000 auxiliaries.

In the past two years, although the number of Haaland's army has not been expanded much, the armed forces have been greatly enriched, and three magic airship brigades and four independent artillery brigades have been reorganized, and the magic ships of the navy have also been expanded to six, and twelve steam ships have been built.

In just two years, more than 4,000 professional officers have been added, and the combat effectiveness has been significantly improved. Richard transferred 5,000 elites in the first batch, which did not affect the garrison mission of Haaland.

The coordinates of the plane passage are located in the Auxerre Castle, which is about 200 kilometers away from the Hawkins Castle, the capital of the Pamela Kingdom, which is already considered an inland area in the Pamela Kingdom.

According to the rough estimate of the Dawn plane map, the straight-line distance from Fort William is more than 3,000 kilometers, and it is necessary to pass through the three kingdoms of Grant, East Coast, and Sith by land, and to establish hundreds of military stations along the way, and it takes four or five months to march to reach the destination.

The overland march was not only long, but also required the coordination of relations between the three countries passing through. Richard's most impatient thing is to pull relations, besides, the East Coast and the Sith are still hostile countries, even if they are hindered by the prestige of the Divine Glorious Empire, the two countries do not dare to provoke conflicts, and it is estimated that it will be difficult to buy a large amount of grain and grass in the two countries. Therefore, the land route was first ruled out by Richard, and the only option was to take the sea route.

Although the Haaland Territory did not develop the eastern coast provinces, it did manage to establish a port at the mouth of the Heihe River. Through the port of the Guild Castle, fresh water and food can be provided for the magic fleet.

Although there were many detours by sea, the total distance may have exceeded 4,000 kilometers, but 95 percent of it was by water, and according to the 360-kilometer voyage of the steamship led by Harland, it would take a total of 12 days to get from Fort Black River to Hawkins Castle.

After entering Hawkins Castle, repair for a day, and then resupply through the inland military station of the Kingdom of Pamela, the total journey is about sixteen or seven days.

The staff made a plan, and Haaland led the huge machine into action, and as the time entered early May, the first personnel began to set off.

Six magical ships protected twelve steam engine ships, loaded with a large amount of baggage, slowly sailed away from Starlight Castle, clinging to the coastline, and sailing south.

The first advance team, with a total number of about 1,800 people, such as Richard, Sophia, Sutton, Sylph and other powerful professionals, all moved with the ship and were distributed on different magical ships to provide protection.

In the past five years, the navy has basically been active in the Heihe and Samba River basins, and occasionally patrols the coastal areas of the Haaland Territory, and wanders around the sea area several hundred kilometers between the estuaries of the Heihe and Samba rivers.

Even the hydrology of the coastal areas under the command of Haaland has not yet been fully understood.

This voyage to the kingdom of Palame, although it was an offshore voyage, was also the first time that the eldest girl was on a sedan chair, and many places could only rely on captives with experience in long-distance voyages.

In this way, Haaland sailed to the southern seas, and on the fourth day entered the waters of the United Kingdom on the east coast.

Seeing that the strange fleet sailed into their territorial waters, the East Coast United Kingdom Navy was about to assemble and annihilate the opponent, but they did not expect to see the banner of the Divine Radiance Empire from afar, and their hearts immediately retreated.

Richard's actions were endorsed by the Divine Radiance Empire, which was too far away to devote much power to this area, and the East Coast did not dare to provoke the overlords of the Dawn Plane.

After the two sides communicated through the flag language and figured out the meaning, the small magic ship of the United Kingdom on the east coast followed the fleet led by Haaland from a distance, and waited until the convoy entered the waters of the Sith Kingdom on the ninth day, and the surveillance ships on the east coast chose to withdraw.

Compared to the United Kingdom on the East Coast, the Sith Kingdom has a smaller grudge with the Harland Empire, and has a closer relationship with the Divine Radiance Empire, and of course it is impossible to move on the ships flying the flag of the Divine Radiant Empire.

The sailors of the Sith Kingdom did not even send a surveillance ship, and by the eleventh day, the fleet led by Haaland had sailed to the waters of the Parame Kingdom, and there was only a day and a half left before Hawkins Castle.

Seeing that they were about to reach their destination, everyone's tense nerves finally relaxed. Richard was just about to invite the officers for a drink when he heard the sentry on the watchtower blow the horn vigorously and beat the golden drum violently.

After hearing the warning, Richard immediately ran to the deck and looked up, and found a jet of water spurting out from a few hundred meters away. The water column was twenty or thirty meters high, and faintly, Richard seemed to see a creature similar to a whale.

The creature was larger than the whales seen in Richard's previous life, and the power of magic could be faintly felt on their bodies. Before Richard could speak, Blanca, the captain of the magic ship, spoke decisively.

"Be careful, a deep-sea beast has been spotted in front, everyone is ready to fight."

Less than half a day after entering the waters of the Parame Kingdom, the Haaland Navy encountered a terrifying deep-sea beast.

The Deepsea Behemoths are unique and legendary artifacts in the ocean, with many different races, and these Deepsea Behemoths have different abilities, and the most powerful ones are even no less than demigods. The weaker ones are no less lethal than the legendary monsters.

As long as it is called a deep sea monster, it is basically a terrifying creature of the legendary level.

Seeing this whale-like magical creature rushing towards him, Richard let out a low roar: "Get ready to fight!" ”

Richard had a high prestige among Haaland's army, and although everyone was a little weak-footed on the magic ship and not very suitable for fighting at sea, the officers quickly organized themselves and began to prepare for battle when they heard Richard's familiar voice.

The strength of Haaland's territorial naval force is not weak, and there are six magic ships in the fleet, each of which has strong protection.

The flagship Victor is also a large legendary magic ship, with an abundance of magic power, and this magic ship alone has the ability to fight the beasts of the deep sea.

Although the twelve steam engine ships had weak underwater defenses, they were also equipped with six magic crystal cannons, which were very lethal.

Moreover, there were more than 1,800 soldiers in the fleet, and this army was an all-professional army, not only the bipedal wyvern brigade, but also Richard, a great master similar to a legendary magician.

As the deep-sea beast rushed over, the soldiers fired their spearguns and aimed at the deep-sea beast. Four steam-powered ships also unleashed giant fishing nets in an attempt to trap the deep-sea behemoth.

The magic crystal cannon installed on the side of the ship, the main combat object is the opponent on the water, and in the face of the deep-sea beasts underwater, the magic crystal cannon is difficult to hit, and it is almost useless.

Although the magic crystal cannon can't be used very well, Haaland has the alchemy bomb. The technicians of the weapons research institute, based on the alchemy bomb, have succeeded in creating mines and depth charges, which can threaten underwater life to a certain extent.

Whoosh!

A continuous stream of speargun fires rang out, and a large number of spearguns shot out of the water, hitting the deep-sea behemoth. The speargun has a sharp barb attached to the head, and the terrifying wound is immediately left on the hit of the deep-sea behemoth.

When the deep-sea beast saw the dense speargun, it immediately dived into the depths of the ocean, and in an instant, countless ropes were stretched straight, and the spearguns in the hands of many soldiers could no longer hold it.

This group of soldiers are almost all professionals, and the weakest strength is also about several times that of ordinary people, several captains and officers, with a strength of more than twenty points, Sutton and Sylph, two legends, with full explosive strength of about fifty points.

Everyone shot at the same time, and in an instant, they actually pulled the deep-sea giant beast back. At the same time, two steam-engine ships also came at a rapid pace, using large trawls to entangle the deep-sea beasts.

Seeing that he couldn't dive, the deep sea beast suddenly sent out a series of infrasonic attacks, which were his bloodline spell infrasonic attacks. In an instant, the soldiers on the ship suddenly felt their ears bloodshot and had a splitting headache, and the warrior raised the shield on his body and released the force field protection spell on the shield.

The Infrasonic Attack is a large-area control magic spell that is extremely lethal to ordinary soldiers. Even the professional soldiers of the Divine Radiance Empire have no choice but to find a way to escape the spell's kill radius, or hope that the high-level professionals will use the power of the spell to provide shelter. Only a magician can easily block this attack.

However, Richard discovered the magic energy conversion formula and created a magic transformation equipment that allows warrior professionals to urge fighting spirits and use spells to a certain extent through special weapons and equipment.

The Force Field Shield is this classic piece of equipment, and almost everyone in Haaland's professional soldier has it.

The Force Field Protection Spell can release a protective force field enchantment, which can effectively resist the invasion of energy spells, and the infrasonic attack is also a kind of energy spell, and the Force Field Shield can weaken this spell to a large extent.

The officers and soldiers on the ship reacted quickly, and they all used force field shields to block the infrasonic attack, and before the deep sea giant beast could release the second bloodline spell, powerful professionals such as Richard, Sutton, Sylph, and Sophia had already taken action.

Richard held the lightning staff in his hand and immediately unleashed a chain of lightning spells, six or seven bolts of lightning released dazzling brilliance, penetrating the water in the blink of an eye, hitting the huge body of the deep sea beast.

Richard's spiritual power has already exceeded sixty points, and the lethality of the thunderbolt spell has been doubled, coupled with the blessing of the thunderbolt staff, each time a six-ring magic is released, the consumption is only equivalent to one-eighth of normal magic, and the destructive power is far more than that of normal nine-ring magic, although the skin of the deep-sea giant beast is rough and thick, and it has been attacked by four consecutive lightning bolts, and its vitality has been reduced by about one-fifth.

With Richard's magical strength, if he continued to fight, the deep sea beast couldn't resist it at all.

Richard used magic to attack, and Sophia cooperated with Richard's battle, she unleashed the Seven Rings Magic Large-scale Freezing Technique, turning a large amount of seawater into ice blocks, trying to control the range of movement of the deep sea beast.

The magicians of the Harland Mage Association also released the Three-Ring Magic Freezing Technique at this time to help Sophia control the deep sea beasts. Low-level magicians also began to release ice blades and ice picks to consume deep-sea beasts.

Sutton, Silver, mother and son plunged into the water and dived into the depths of the sea to fight the legendary creature in close combat.

Seeing that his situation had become dangerous, the deep sea beast let out a scream from its mouth and began to summon nearby magical creatures.

The Beasts of the Deep are the natural lords of the Children of the Sea, and their bloodline spells can summon magical creatures within hundreds of kilometers of their vicinity. In just ten minutes, a large number of manta rays have appeared near the fleet.

Manta rays are social magical creatures like snow crystal fish, this kind of fish is not terrible alone, ordinary apprentices can find a way to kill, but thousands of manta rays rush up, and large magic ships can't withstand it.

Manta rays are bloodthirsty creatures, they lack intelligence, and they will become crazy when they see blood, and with this obvious weakness, as long as they are well prepared in advance, they are easier to deal with than snow crystal fish.

Seeing the appearance of swarms of manta rays, a magic ship immediately lures the enemy deep and lures a large number of manta rays away by dumping blood. At the same time, the magic ship activated the magic crystal furnace, began to consume the magic crystal, and released the protective enchantment spell, and in the blink of an eye, a large protective shield was released from the magic ship, enveloping the ship from top to bottom.

Seeing that the summoned manta ray was lured away by the enemy, and its body was hooked by hundreds of spearguns, every time it moved, it was in severe pain, and two bloodline spells were released in a row, but they could not break the deadlock, at this moment, a strong fear was imprinted into the mind of the deep sea beast.

This terrifying legendary sea creature, as long as it grows to adulthood, is the natural overlord of the ocean. Unlike the same magical creatures, the Deep Sea Behemoth has a very high IQ, no less than any other intelligent creature.

Sensing that the situation was unfavorable, the deep sea beast suddenly regretted it a little, and it was just about to release the third bloodline spell to cut the leather rope attached to the speargun and escape, when Sylph and Sutton had already dived underwater and came to the back of the deep sea beast.

Sylph and Sutton are both legends, although the two of them can't use underwater breathing and can't walk easily underwater, but after being promoted to legends, their physical fitness seems to be superhuman, their strength is almost about fifty times that of ordinary people, and their agility is also about twenty times that of ordinary people. Relying on strong physical fitness and non-human lung capacity, the two of them can hold their breath underwater for two or three hours and engage in a battle of no less intensity.

Sutton and Sylph drew their swords one after another, and soon left a large gap in the body of the deep sea beast.

The deep sea beast wanted to turn around and attack Sutton and Silver, but they were easily dodged by the two, even if they released the water element magic and released hundreds of ice blades to cut the leather rope on the speargun, and got rid of the control, they still couldn't avoid the attacks of the two legendary professionals.

If the enemy is only Sutton and Sylph, the deep sea beasts occupy the advantage of geography and have the strength to defeat the opponent, but behind Sylph and Sutton, there are two powerful magicians Richard and Sophia to control the battle, and behind Richard and Sophia, there are also hundreds of magicians, more than a thousand professional soldiers, and a whole fleet.

The mighty Wyvern Knight has not yet been used, and the sea beasts are at the end of their rope

From the beginning of the rash attack of the deep sea beast, the end is already doomed.

This reckless and proud legendary creature soon died at the hands of the Haaland army, once again fulfilling the prestige of the Haaland army and increasing Richard's legend.
