What's that?
Bechymos was currently floating above the sea. She noticed that there was an area in the water that was constantly bubbling. The bubbles were so big that they seemed to have come from a large hole at the bottom of the sea.
As there were many plankton and fishes eating the corpses, Lin had yet to 'clean up' the area. There were no troops in the water either, so she didn't know what was going on under the water.
But at least it wasn't an earthquake. Now that Lin had upgraded some of her sensory organs, she could sense the situation on the ground even from the air. Usually, predicting earthquakes was related to calculations.
* Gurgle … * More and more bubbles appeared on the surface of the water. Suddenly, a large object pushed aside the corpses around it and floated to the surface.
Was that … the head of a Plague Leader? Bechymos looked at the object on the surface of the water. Lin was puzzled. There was actually a Plague Leader here?
This head was floating on the surface of the water, it seemed to be just an empty head, but this made Lin puzzled, why would it float up now? Could it be that there were many Plague Leaders buried under the water here?
Lin looked at it for a while. That was the only thing that floated to the surface. Forget it, let's not worry about that for now. Bechymos continued to move towards the sea. Lin believed that she had to quickly get rid of the Plague Leaders that were moving towards them.
The distance between the True Fungus Island and the Five Plague Islands was about 7 kilometers. The First Plague Island was originally too slow, even after Lin had dealt with the fungal monster army, they were only halfway there. However, due to the death of their brains, they had somehow sped up. If they weren't stopped quickly, they would reach the beach in a few hundred seconds.
It didn't take long for Bechymos to fly towards her target. Not long after, she could see the fungal army gathering at the sea in the distance.
Only the larger fungal monsters were left of the army. And almost all of them were sea-born and flying. That included the last three wyverns. They gathered at the surface of the sea and kept circling. Lin could feel the sea shaking as they circled.
Bechymos slowly dived into the sea. As the cold sensation of the water spread throughout her body, Lin saw her target – thirty incomparably huge creatures were slowly advancing on the seabed. Everything they stepped on, be it coral reefs or rocks, were turned into a pile of debris.
They were only moving slowly before, but now they looked a little like they were 'running'. Although running at the bottom of the sea wasn't that fast.
In short, he was much slower than Bechymos.
Bechymos suddenly accelerated and charged towards the leader of the fungus. The group of monsters had also noticed Bechymos' approach. They let out a series of low and deep whining sounds, as though they were trying to convey something.
Lin didn't care about their voices. Instead, she fired a large explosive bomb at the leader of the plague.
"Boom …!!!"
Before they could react, a loud explosion was heard underwater. The shockwave formed by the seawater spread out in a circular shape from the center of the explosion, blowing away all the pebbles on the seabed. The huge Plague Heads also fell to the seabed because of the impact.
It was the first time Lin had acted like an artistic creator in the sea. It seemed to be more powerful than in the air, but there was no object to compare it with. It was not easy to calculate its power.
The Plague Leader's carapace had a compression-resistant and hardened structure. After being affected by the shockwave, they only fell to the seabed and did not seem to have suffered any damage.
However, as they only had two legs, it was very difficult for them to get up from the seabed. While they were struggling on the seabed, Bechymos quickly swam to the top of the nearest Plague Leader.
Bechymos was also equipped with an armor-piercing projectile similar to the Styx Cannon. It also had a dissolving effect. Bechymos aimed the muzzle of the cannon at the neck of the Plague Leader.
"Bang!"
Along with the sound of the cannon, the armor-piercing projectile seemed to have hit something hard the moment it was shot out. The head of the armor-piercing projectile was completely shattered. It didn't fly far before the projectile was completely destroyed … …
Lin's warheads were all alive, so Lin could clearly feel the warheads smashing into something hard, as if they had hit something hard.
What was going on? The projectile didn't hit anything. Could water be considered a hard object …?
… That did seem to be a possibility. Water was harder to push apart than air. If the projectile's speed was increased too much, it would indeed shatter itself. But this feeling was really special. Even the armor-piercing projectile, which was specially reinforced and could penetrate through many fungal monsters, could only travel such a short distance?
This was rather troublesome. It seemed that high-speed projectiles couldn't be used in the water. Fortunately, the artistic creator wasn't very fast, or else it would have exploded in the water and affected Bechymos. In fact, the artistic creator's projectile had chosen a location where it wouldn't affect Bechymos by moving on its own instead of propelling it with explosives and pressure.
Bechymos looked at the Plague Leader that was struggling to get up from the seabed. She bumped into it slightly, causing it to fall to the seabed again. Then, Bechymos extended two tentacles and pressed the muzzle of the cannon against the Plague Leader's neck.
Bechymos sucked out all the water from the muzzle of the cannon. Then … Bang!
"Wuuu …" The struggling Plague Leader stopped moving after letting out a low groan. When Bechymos swam away, a large hole could be seen on its neck. Seawater quickly poured in through the hole, killing all the fungi inside … …. Bechymos swam away. Only a large hole could be seen on its neck.
What Lin fired just now was not an armor-piercing round. Instead, it was a 'pressure hammer' similar to the mantis shrimp's. This kind of hammer was hidden in the cannonball tentacles. It could be quickly ejected and then retracted. It seemed to be quite powerful.
Therefore, Bechymos continued to use this method to attack the nearby fungal monsters. Although these monsters were huge, they were very easy to kill. All he needed to do was hammer at their necks. The necks were the weakest part of the Plague Head. As long as he made a hole, they would die from the water entering their necks …
Bechymos killed several Plague Leaders in a short period of time. Lin discovered that they had indeed become smarter. After they stood up from the seabed, they would scatter and flee in all directions in an attempt to escape from Bechymos. But as long as Bechymos chased after them, she could easily knock them down and break their necks.
It wouldn't take long for Bechymos to finish off all of them. Next, she would deal with the fungal monsters on the surface of the sea. That would be the end of this war.
