"Fear spreads with war. We have come to this land, and we will tell those stupid things that we will spread fear on their journey! We will roll their kingdom into dust! Come on, you bunch of things that don't know how to roll, your terror is coming! "
Five huge wooden ships slowly moved forward in the sea between the island and the land. On the bow of each ship, there was a Roaring Beetle roaring loudly. Not only did their voices resound through the sky, but they also completely shocked the hearing organs of the White Skeleton Dragons on the coast. The violent sounds made them cover their heads involuntarily.
Although they could not understand it at all.
"So much wood … King! So much wood! "Compared to the Cryopteris, the Skeletal Dragons were more concerned about their ships.
"These things … Did they come from inland?" The Mountain King climbed onto a tall rock on the beach and looked at the ships. "There must be a lot of forests inland, so they can make such huge … wood? But what kind of creature made these things? "
Lin found that these Skeletal Dragons seemed to have never seen a ship, or rather, they had never made anything similar, so they called them 'wood'. It was said that they had left the land on something 'special'. She did not know what it was, although Lin thought that they had swum to the island.
"Don't let them get close to the island!" The Mountain King shouted. "The return of the wood spirits has just ended, and they will cause a very bad impact!"
"Attack! Get rid of these strange creatures! "
"Oh oh oh oh oh!" Under the king's command, all the Skeletal Dragons suddenly let out a cry and jumped into the water. They swam quickly toward the brainworm's ship.
A large group of Skeletal Dragons approached in the water. The brainworm's ship did not react.
The brainworm probably did not know that it was the Skeletal Dragons that had attacked it. Its purpose here was to find the sea dragons.
Of course, the brainworm should have seen a Skeletal Dragon riding on the sea dragon, but the brainworm probably did not think that it was commanding the sea dragons …
The brainworm's fleet was not only these five ships, and there were others that had spread out. They might have almost reached the top of the sea city.
The group of swimming Skeleton Dragons had already approached the ships, but after getting close, they realized a problem … They could not climb onto the ships.
Skeletal Dragons might be able to do it, but these White Skeletal Dragons had poor climbing ability …
"A lot of stupid things are approaching!" One of the Cryopteris on the ship noticed the commotion below. Its cry caused the sea to tremble. The White Skeleton Dragons in the sea had no choice but to dive into the water in an attempt to avoid the terrifying sound.
However, the brain worm ignored them. The five ships continued to move forward slowly. The brain worm had no intention of fighting.
This made the White Skeleton Dragons below even more anxious. They all tried to climb onto the ship. Some of the White Skeleton Dragons even began to use the weapons they carried with them.
This kind of lightweight weapon was called a "hook claw," which seemed to be something used to flip shellfish in the sea. It was also the only weapon that this group of skeletal dragons carried. Because it needed to travel a long distance, the White Skeleton Dragon did not bring any heavier weapons.
With the help of Hook Claw. A White Skeleton Dragon climbed onto the ship. It used Hook Claw to grab some gaps in the ship's hull. The other White Skeleton Dragons began to use the same method to climb up.
The brainworm's ships were mainly made up of a large number of pieces of wood glued together. The manufacturing method was usually to let a certain troop class chew on the bark and then glue it together. Because of this, the brainworm did not need to cut down the entire tree to use wood. It only needed to use part of the bark.
However, because of this, it was very easy for the White Skeleton Dragons to climb up with their sharp claws. This group of White Skeleton Dragons finally began to launch an official attack on the ships!
"What are you doing? Hurry up and roll back into the sea! " The Cryopteris standing on the ship roared at the bottom. Suddenly, a large number of White Skeleton Dragons were shaken back into the water.
"Get rid of that thing that's shouting!" More White Skeleton Dragons emerged from the water and climbed up the ship's hull. The main reason why these White Skeleton Dragons were so desperate was their worship of the Wood Spirit. They thought that if the ships approached the island, the Wood Spirit would be angered again.
However, the Mountain King did not seem to be very worried. It was probably because it thought that there was a large forest inland. It was now more concerned about how to reach the inland. However, it could not ignore the situation in front of it.
"Caw!" Finally, the first White Skeleton Dragon climbed onto the ship. It roared and jumped into the ship, waving the weapon in its hand and began to wildly attack the creatures inside!
However, a few seconds later, it turned into a mutilated corpse and was thrown off the ship. It fell into the sea and dyed the seawater red.
"Caw?" The White Skeleton Dragons that had not yet climbed onto the ship looked at the corpse in horror. However, they did not hesitate and climbed onto the ship one by one...
"What is this? There are so many of them! " The moment these White Skeleton Dragons climbed onto the ship, they saw that the ship was densely packed with creatures. Their numbers and their sickle-shaped forelimbs made the White Skeleton Dragons feel fear.
"Caw! Kill them all! " No one knew who shouted, but the White Skeleton Dragons decided to pick up their weapons and jump into the ship. Thus, a battle began …
No, it should be a massacre. The screams of the White Skeleton Dragons soon rang out on the ship.
Although the White Skeleton Dragons were huge, they were no match for the dense infantry of the Cephalopods. When they rushed up together, they could easily tear these defenseless White Skeleton Dragons to pieces!
"This is the price of your stupidity!" As the Cryopteris spoke, the shredded corpses were thrown into the sea. Blood and wreckage were constantly thrown off the ship, frightening the White Skeleton Dragons that were still in the water and had not climbed onto the ship. They jumped off the ship one after another, and those that were still in the water swam desperately to the shore. They did not want to fight at all...
Lin felt that this group of soldiers did not seem to have received any special training. She felt that they were like the first group of combat troops formed in the lower district of Susumi. They were easily scared and ran away, but the regular troops of Susumi did not have such a thing.
Could this be because the White Skeleton Dragons had not experienced war for too long?
However, King was very supportive of their retreat. When he saw a large number of corpses being thrown out, he shouted, "Retreat quickly! Leave those strange logs! Go back to the shore! "
"Run! What a stupid, pathetic thing! " Cryopteris shouted on the ship, but the Cephalopods did not give chase. However, when a large number of White Skeleton Dragon corpses fell into the water, the smell of their blood spread in the water and attracted a large group of sharks.
Most of them were small sharks about a meter in size, but there were also some larger sharks that could pose a great threat.
This made the White Skeleton Dragons even more fearful and they swam faster. Finally, many of them reached the shore. They climbed onto the shore and panted. Although they did not lose many, every White Skeleton Dragon was obviously frightened.
Except for King, he had been on the shore since the beginning and had never gone into the water.
"We have to find a way to get back to the city and gather more troops." King looked at the few ships that were slowly moving and shouted to the White Skeleton Dragons around him, "Hurry up, we have to find another way to go back!"
"Gah!" Although the White Skeleton Dragons were scared to death, they quickly jumped into the water again. They avoided the sharks that were biting the corpses and quickly swam to the island.
Because they were very afraid that the monsters would reach the island, they swam even more desperately.
However, the Cephalopod did not seem to care. Its ship was still moving slowly. The Cephalopod had some ways to speed up, but it usually did not use them.
It was hard to say whether they would develop into a war.
Lin's spies also swam back with the White Skeleton Dragons. The battle just now had been noticed by the Standing Scorpions underwater, but they did not do anything at all. They just watched from below...
Although the White Skeleton Dragons were all very anxious, it still took a long time to swim to the island where they could land...
When the Mountain King returned to the city with the panting troops, the sky was slowly darkening. The surrounding White Skeleton Dragons were all talking about the troops in front of them. Lin listened carefully and found that they were all discussing something about King.
They mainly said that King had failed or something. Some even said that King was rejected by the "creator", so he could not land and so on.
Strange. Although they hated King before, they did not say these things... Could it be...
Now, the Mountain King was walking at the front of the troops. Because of the tension, he did not pay attention to the conversations around him. He just wanted to get back to the castle as soon as possible.
The starlight in the sky was slowly covered by dark clouds, and it looked like it was going to rain. The surrounding White Skeleton Dragons quickly put lids on the braziers to ensure that the whole city was bright.
In this busy city, no matter if it was raining or anything else, the White Skeleton Dragons would not stop moving. They were always working hard to get more shells.
Because shells were all resources to them, and also their lives.
Some White Skeleton Dragons would even do some very... dangerous things for shells.
"Gah!" Suddenly, two White Skeleton Dragons rushed out from the dragons on both sides of King. They covered their faces with seaweed, only revealing their eyes. They also held sharp spikes in their hands.
"You..." Before King could react, the two White Skeleton Dragons quickly stabbed King's abdomen with their spikes! Amazing astronomy.
