Chapter 247: Now, it's terrible
"Quick, everyone get ready!"
Dressed in the same Blackjack jacket, Marco and his pirate gunners receive new ammunition from Mechanic Arronillo.
Since he was separated from Wayne, he was appointed by Blackjack as the captain of the ninth squad with the bullet blueprint, and in addition to the Moskla who had left the city-state of Custer with him, there were also several pirates who were good at using muskets.
As a result, their Ninth Squad was nicknamed the "Musketeers" by the other pirates.
After twenty days, Marko decided to modify all the muskets in the squad to fit the new bullets, after consulting with the mechanics.
Although the workload was huge and the process was very difficult, from the subsequent training, it was seen that the new musket and bullets were almost doubled in power.
After understanding the effect of the gun modification, Blackjack also ordered other pirates with muskets as their main weapon to modify them to improve their overall strength.
In this way, the "musket team" of the ninth squad has completely gained a foothold on the Bucklley, and it has also given Marco some confidence in the future.
"Captain, you must pay attention to your position in the stormy sea, especially us gunners."
A pirate gunner, who had been on the Bekli for several years, stood on the edge of the mast at the stern, tied it around his waist with a cable, and fastened his shoes and the buckles protruding from the deck.
Marco watched his movements and couldn't help but wonder: "Dax, isn't this fixing yourself to death?" If you're in danger......"
The sea area of Cordo is full of treacherous clouds, not to mention the kind of storm that covers the sky and the sun right now, once it is close to the deep-sea distortants, the buckle under his feet and the cable on his body are likely to lock him up.
"Trust the others!" Dax's swarthy face showed two rows of white teeth, and he laughed, "I didn't say it, but Boss Jack and First Officer Lotilia said it." You look at the positions of the other squads around us......"
Marco followed his gaze and saw that the other three squads assigned to the stern side of the ship were evenly dispersed around the side of the ship, surrounding them in the middle.
He vaguely understood, this was the protection of their Nine Squads?
"Most of the combatants on deck are supernatural bloodlines with strengthened bodies, and the rest of the weaker ones are either mechanical gunners in the cabin or gunners like us who need to be protected."
After securing his body firmly on the deck, Dax then checked the reloading of the musket and made final preparations.
"Captain, when we fight later, we will rely on you for protection."
Marco nodded, waved the lantern staff a few times, and said solemnly, "I will!" β
After being at sea for so long, it was the first time he had experienced such a naval battle.
The last time he saw Wayne, he was just a bystander, and he could only watch the projection of the Lord of Dawn slowly appear in the sky, silently accepting his weakness.
And now, he has put himself in the right position - since his strength is low, then redouble his efforts and catch up with the people in front!
This is also the main reason why he chose to go to sea in the first place!
"Marco!"
At this time, Waleed flashed over, his face was no longer the unobtrusive smile he used to have, he took out a space ring with a serious expression, and said: "The [Burst Sniper Rifle] made by Wayne has arrived, quickly assign it to Dax, let them familiarize themselves with it before entering the sea area!" β
There were a total of sixteen [Burst Sniper Rifles], except for the six that Milus bought at his own expense, the remaining ten gunners who could use spiritual power to activate the runes on the guns were all assigned to Marko's team.
"Sniper rifles arrived?"
Marko's eyes lit up, he still remembered the scene where Wayne used a sniper rifle to shoot the deep sea aberrations, the power was simply perverted!
"In addition, you must pay attention to follow the instructions, I will cooperate with Boss Jack at the rudder and direct the battle of each squad."
"Understood!"
After Waleed left, Marco hurriedly took out the [Burst Sniper Rifle], and did not let the pirate gunners who were fixed in their positions gather, he directly delivered the guns to everyone one by one.
"The new weapon has arrived, hurry up and get familiar with it!"
"Great!"
"I've been waiting for so long, and it's finally here!"
Those gunners who were very satisfied with their weapons just now put their short-handled muskets into their holsters one by one, holding the newly arrived [Burst Sniper Rifle], and couldn't wait to try their hands.
"Hey, how do I feel like this gun is different from the one before?"
"There's one more scope, Lie X, it's so clear-"
"I just tried it, and I can see at least ten kilometers away, far beyond the range of my mental perception."
"Why don't you try?"
Bang!
A crisp gunshot made Marco and the others stunned, looked at each other, and found that it was not the gun fired from this side.
"It's the bastards of Milus, they must be testing guns too! Let's do too! β
"Captain, help us find a target!"
"Good!"
Marko nodded, jumped to the lookout, looked at the raging sea ahead, glanced a few times, found a deep-sea aberrant that kept churning on the surface of the sea, and shouted: "Left side, eight kilometers away, target ......"
Bang, bang, bang......
Before the words could be spoken, the ten gunners had already completed their aiming and shooting maneuvers.
The rune power on the [Burst Sniper Rifle] shone brightly, and the two runes of Rush and Burst acted on the bullet, and the bullet with the attached Death Pollution characteristic pierced the body of the abyssal aberrant in the blink of an eye.
"Roarβ"
I saw the terrifying mutant in the distance, wielding several tentacles, after being penetrated by bullets, pus pockets spread rapidly, and some of its body were strangely withered, and the explosion effect of the bursting rune left a bloody hole on its body.
The next second, its sloop-like body collapsed on the surface.
Mosquera's eyes widened, "Woon X, dead?!" β
"An aberrant with destructive power comparable to a director-level transcendent in the sea, and hasn't withstood a round of shots?"
"It's terrifying!"
Seeing this scene, Marco's handsome face flashed with excitement, shaking his head to look left and right, quickly finding the next suitable target.
"Quick, once again, this time only five people can shoot."
He was going to test the power of the sniper rifle to see how many gunners it would take to kill a director-level aberration.
"Yes yes yes ......"
Marco couldn't help but be excited, with the blessing of these sniper rifles, he, the captain of the ninth squad, could really be regarded as having a foothold on the Whitekley.
In this way, he has no worries and can go all out to improve his strength.
Or, break away from the White Crane and become a captain like Blackjack!
Just as Marco and the others were intensively testing the [Burst Sniper Rifle], Blackjack and Youan in the bow of the ship also made new discoveries.
"The black carriage, is it really a carriage?"
Blackjack's rugged face had a grim expression, and his eyes looked coldly at the center of the storm in the distance, "I thought it was the name of a ship. β
Euan didn't respond to his dark humor, frowned slightly, and said, "Jack, something is wrong. β
"Huh? Did you find anything? β
"No, I just think the stormy sea is too quiet."
"Quiet?"
Blackjack was stunned for a moment, and looked closely.
But unlike You'an, who is a spiritual wizard with strong spiritual power, he looked at it for a while, but still didn't find anything.
"Are you mistaken? Except for the carriage and the so-called gravedigger who drove it, everything else was the same as a normal storm. β
"Moreover, it is chaotic and noisy, lightning and thunder, how can you say that it is quiet?"
Youan glanced at him and said angrily, "You only see these surfaces?" β
"You just said what you found."
"I'm still watching, but ......"
Euan had a vague sense that the stormy sea was unusual.
According to the results of the last call, the people of the Aranika should be with these gravediggers.
And during this time, the Black Pearl also found a lot of ships to follow the moving stormy sea, what about those ships?
Unless, someone consciously cleans out the exploration boats.
So what are their purposes......
"Jack, my advice, don't enter that sea for now, I doubt ......"
Before they could finish speaking, the two of them looked sharply to the side and back.
"It seems that your suspicions have been fulfilled." Blackjack stared indifferently in that direction, "It's the Aranika!" β
"Suyad?"
You An's brows furrowed, with his strength and spiritual perception range, he was actually invaded within two hundred kilometers.
"It's not him!"
Blackjack shook his head, looked at the five-masted galleon that slowly appeared in his field of vision, and said with a solemn expression: "That's the first officer of the Aranika, 'Ripper' Dominory Pruitt!" β
"Pruitt? Is it the one I know? β
"It's him! You should remember what happened back then, right? β
Euan recalled for a few seconds, and couldn't help but show a smile on his face, looked at Black Jack, and said, "It seems that the two of us can't run away this time, and he won't let us go easily." β
"You can still laugh......"
Blackjack pursed his lips, but laughed as he thought of his youth, "But you're right, you can't enter that sea, Walid!" β
"Boss?"
"Right full rudder!"
"Right full rudder!"
Waleed motioned to the helmsman beside him to do so, muttering to himself.
Not in the storm?
But just as the Buckley was turning its bow to get rid of the storm and the Alanika encircled from behind, a crash came from the bottom of the ship.
"Boom!"
The entire Blax shook violently, and was almost overturned by the impact!
"What's the situation?"
"Look there!"
With the sound of this impact, a terrifying-looking monster slowly surfaced out of the sea with dozens of huge tentacles covered with spikes, the tentacles surrounded the head in the middle, and the scarlet one-eyed stared at the Bekli under him without blinking, as if looking at a small toy.
"Damn, that bastard even found a deep sea monster!"
"It's a bit bad now......"
Blackjack stood steady on the deck, unaffected by the impact.
But the pirates behind him were caught off guard and almost threw away all the weapons in their hands.
"Damn, what's attacking?"
"It's a deep sea troll, quick, hurry up and open the magic circle!"
"Until then, don't look directly at that monster!" Blackjack yelled, then looked at the cabin behind him, "Waleed! β
"I know!"
Waleed, who was in the cab, looked solemn and took out the "Taboo 2-14 Storm Horn" and blew it vigorously.
Woo β
With the dull sound of the horn, new clouds quickly converged over the Buckly, faintly connecting with the stormy sea in the distance.
As the cloud appeared, Waleed was entangled in a strange source power, and a resentful phantom attached to his body.
"Wind!"
Waleed his storm horn, the wraithful phantom roared in the sky, and a rune circle flickered out of thin air.
Immediately afterward, the speed of the White Crane under him increased sharply under the effect of that magic circle, and even the waves affected by the storm seemed to be flat, without causing any impact on the ship.
Buzz β
At the same time, the ship's rune circle also opened simultaneously, which made all the pirates threatened by the deep sea monsters breathe a sigh of relief.
Euan looked up at the newly emerging deep-sea troll, "I think I've seen ...... somewhere"
"Is it the one on Dacman Island?" Blackjack thought for a moment, "I remember it was the ...... Wayne met before."
"It seems that the power of that Twilight Sect in the sea is even more terrifying than imagined."
"Now is not the time to talk about this, if we don't stop it, we can't go!"
As he spoke, Blackjack activated the Origin Power, "Fez, Ti, Mingxi!" β
His tall body swelled rapidly, his vertebrae bulging, the ribs on his chest turned outward and thickened, and the tiny tendons tangled around the bones......
In the next second, he turned into a terrifying sea dragon comparable in size to a deep sea troll, blocking in front of the White Krage, and rushed towards the deep sea troll.
"Roarβ"
"Youan, you take them first, I'll rush over later!"
"Tsk!"
Euan shook his head, still so reckless.
However, the current situation is critical, and with Blackjack's extraordinary bloodline, it is indeed more suitable for fighting in the sea.
At this moment, a figure burst out of the five-masted galleon that was getting closer and closer behind the side.
"Hahaha...... Jack, what do you see me running? β
"Domitri, bastard!"
Hearing that voice, Blackjack scolded angrily and roared, "Give me death!" β
"Don't be so angry," the figure who quickly chased after him laughed, "For you, I've specially found a monster with a large physique, see what I do to you, okay?" β
"Damn it!"
"You concentrate on dealing with that monster, and the crybaby in the back will be left to me."
Crybaby?
Domitri, who was chasing behind, quickly scanned the Bakri, and soon spotted the figure standing at the bow of the ship.
"Euan?! How are you?! β
"Domitri Pruitt, long time no see."
Yuan looked at Domini coldly, and despite the distance of hundreds of kilometers, he could still clearly see the surprise on the other party's face.
"Ho ho ...... It's been a long time since I've seen each other, and it's great to be able to kill it this time! β
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
Wayne didn't know what was happening in the Stormy Sea, and he was concentrating on drawing a spell rune.
You have successfully drawn the Fear Howl Rune. Special Rewards: +3 Survival Points, +1 Spirit Level. γ
"The hundredth rune......"
Wayne looked at the new refillable rune on the panel, and then upgraded the Fear Howl rune to full level.
[Fear Howl Rune Level 1 (1/1), is it raised?] γ
γPromotion!γ γ
γβ¦β¦γ
[Congratulations, your knowledge of runes: Fear Howl Runes has been upgraded to full level.] Effect: The rune has a 100% success rate. γ
[Congratulations on obtaining a full-level rune knowledge, and your rune proficiency progress: 100/100.] Special Reward: Spirit Level +1. γ
[Congratulations, your rune proficiency has been successfully promoted to rune mastery: 0/1000.] Special Rewards: Survival Points +20, Tenacity Level +6, Spirit Level +6. γ
As the rune level on the panel changed to mastery, a huge amount of rune knowledge followed into his mind.
"The content is a lot less than the last entry-level knowledge......"
Although the knowledge of runes at the proficiency level is also abundant, it is only half of the knowledge of the beginner level.
And with Wayne's current spiritual level and origin power, as soon as he first entered, he mastered one-tenth of this knowledge, and he was still absorbing the rest of the content at a very terrifying speed.
"Everything, it seems that the decision to learn and absorb those introductory rune knowledge every day is correct."
Wayne looked through some of the contents, and compared to the entry-level rune knowledge, the proficient-level rune knowledge only had some more rune patterns and rune arrays arranged.
The Path of Darkness, Prison of the Dead, Ice Storm, Fire...... The patterns of the runes, as well as the methods and sources of drawing these runes, etc., were clearly reflected in his mind.
Wayne went through the knowledge content in his mind, took out a pattern of a rune circle from the space ring, looked at the complex patterns and nodes on it, and muttered:
"In this way, I have a better grasp of the layout of that magic circle."
The pattern of this rune circle, inspired by the [Iron Heart Fury], follows the simplest rune arrangement, adding a weakened rune that weakens physical strength and mental strength, as well as a plague rune.
As long as he is within the range of this circle, he can not only strengthen his own defense through the power of the solid heart rune, but also weaken the enemy, and at the same time, he can also activate the burst of rage, combined with the boiling blood spell, to further enhance his explosive power.
There are only four rune powers, and thirty-two rune nodes......
"I can improve it a little more."
Among the newly acquired proficiency-level rune knowledge, there is a rune array diagram from the Third Age, which is a pattern similar to a six-pointed star, which can be superimposed with six rune powers to form a new rune circle.
Wayne thought for a few seconds and gave up on this plan.
First, after adding two runes, it will take more time to re-deduce the design and test.
Second, if you really want to use a new rune circle, it will also increase the difficulty of arranging it and increase the risk of being discovered.
Moreover, the list of materials previously provided to Teresa had to be overturned......
Thinking of this, Wayne placed the parchment on the table and glanced at the basic properties on the panel.
Name: Wayne Love

Skill: Ghost Meditation Level 5......
Runic Knowledge Tree: Runic Mastery (0/1000)
Potions Knowledge Tree: Potions Proficiency (78/100)
Survival Point: 102320
Wayne looked thoughtfully at the basic stats, skills, and remaining survival points on the panel.
With his current strength, he was enough to deal with an ordinary Kingdom Hand level transcendent.
But if it is a top powerhouse like Ales who is about to enter the legend, even if he uses the two taboos "Taboo 2-77 Karel's Murmur" and "Taboo 1-83 Demon Joker" at the same time, he may not be able to resist the other party.
In addition, after the last shot against the gravedigger, the out-of-control progress of that melodic organ has reached the limit......
Therefore, he also needs to find another definite fulcrum to pry the mountain of Alex Coulibaly.
"Fulcrum ......"
Wayne sat back in his high-backed chair, his mind going through the spells he had mastered.
Undead Summoning, Machine Box, Elemental Heart...... Mental concussion, frost impact......
Not many of them have reached level five, and most of the spell levels are still level four, but he has too few survival points to upgrade all of them.
"Heart of Flesh!"
Thinking about it, a spell that can greatly increase his strength in a short period of time can only be done by the heart of flesh and blood.
According to the experience of the last time he added points, his total attribute is now 48432, and he will be upgraded by one level of Flesh Heart......
"The improvement of nearly 20,000 basic attributes is almost comparable to all the attributes of a legendary-level transcendent."
After thinking about it, Wayne's brow furrowed.
Stats increase is a good thing, but he will have to choose to use close range to fight Ales at that time.
Boiling blood, strong walls, healing, rapid shadow walking......
He looked at the spinning spell pattern on the driver's head, and almost all of the spells in his flesh enhancement system were used as auxiliaries......
"The fulcrum has been found!"
After thinking about it, Wayne preliminarily finalized the improvement plan for the next time.
In addition to the Heart of Flesh, he also needs the spell ability of a powerful Flesh enhancement system.
In this way, his toughness level, coupled with the enhanced effect of the Boiling Blood spell, can exert his current strength to a certain extent.
It's powerful, explosive, and preferably lasts a little longer......
I'm not in a hurry, I'll look for it from the exchange manual later.
If not, you can also try to redeem it from the Spirits and Esoteric Schools.
Thinking like this, a smile appeared on Wayne's face.
With the initial response plan, he has much more confidence in the arrangement on Alexei Island this time.
But before that, he needs to know more about Alex's current situation.
"Now it's up to the little maid to be able to do it......"
PS: Adjust the update time later, eight or twelve o'clock in the morning, it's too late in the evening, stay up all day...... Sorry, sorry.
PPS: Ask for a guaranteed monthly pass, hehehe......
