[Part 3]
Salin was annoyed by Nicholas' words. He walked onto the deck and stood at the bow. The dragon head was originally a room for mages, but it was later changed into a magic array and operated from the back. After all, mages would face danger in this position.
Salin stood on the magic array and looked out of the dragon's mouth. He saw the boundless sea and sky, and the bone-chilling wind. The water vapor on the surface of the sea almost condensed into ice, and the sun in the sky was cold.
The poet said, "If you have a sad heart, then the world will be gloomy too."
Salin recalled the mage's teasing of the poet, and suddenly felt it was ridiculous. The poet was not wrong. He was a level-8 Magic Shooter, and this environment was not bad at all. Moreover, he had a Water Elemental Body, so he could hardly feel the cold.
The only reason for this feeling was his mood.
Salin had always had a good impression of Goddess Myers. It could be said that he could achieve what he had today because of a gift ring from Myers. However, he suddenly realized that this ring might be a means of resurrection left by Goddess Myers. He suddenly felt a chill in his heart.
Goddess Myers had left more than one gift ring, but he was the first to reach the core temple and obtain the seed of the sacred tree. In other words, Goddess Myers had cast a lot of bait, and he was the first to take the bait.
Even if it wasn't him, there would be someone else, right?
Thinking of this, Salin took out his family badge and rubbed it in his hand. This badge was the only thing that he could truly rely on. However, his father's voice and smile were getting more and more blurry, and he could not remember it no matter how hard he tried. The Metatlin Family will gradually grow and become the most important bloodline in the Myers Continent. But father, mother, where are you?
If my soul is not destroyed, will you always be looking at me?
"Master, there is a storm ahead. We need to go around it. You should return to the cabin," the Wing Skeleton's voice sounded in Salin's mind. Salin responded and turned to walk out of the dragon head.
The storm on the sea was very terrifying. Even though Salin was a level-8 Magic Shooter, he did not want to try it. The magic compass of the Dragon Skeleton Warship was already the best equipment Salin could make. It could detect the storm from hundreds of miles away.
The speed at which the storm moved was also very shocking. The fleet turned to the east, but they were still brushed by the edge of the storm. The huge Dragon Skeleton Warship rose and fell in the huge waves that were dozens of meters high. Even so, the ship did not feel much vibration.
If it were an ordinary warship, after such a jolt, even if the hull did not disintegrate, the people on board would probably vomit. The bone wings on both sides of the Dragon Skeleton Warship opened up slightly, and the wind elements around the Dragon Skeleton Warship became less violent. The entire warship remained in a relatively stable state.
Wu …
An unknown sea beast flew out from the huge waves. Its body was blood-red. Clearly, it had suffered serious injuries in this storm. When the sea beast landed, it landed heavily on the deck of the Dragon Skeleton Battleship. Suddenly, the Dragon Skeleton Battleship's two waterlines spurted out strong water currents. The battleship suddenly accelerated, and the sea beast fell back into the sea.
The metal watchtowers at the rear of the battleship began to rotate, and the alchemy crossbows inside were already opened. If that sea beast still tried to land on the battleship to avoid the storm, the two metal watchtowers would definitely be able to shoot level 9 creatures into hedgehogs.
This was the strength of the Dragon Skeleton Warship. It could suddenly accelerate, and did not require any preparation time or advance speed. In a naval battle, it was almost impossible for stray bullets to hit the Dragon Skeleton Warship. The only way to hit the Dragon Skeleton Warship was to launch a concentrated attack, so that the sea around the Dragon Skeleton Warship would be under attack, and there would be nowhere to escape.
"Slow down! Slow down! "In the captain's cabin, the Sorcerers under Salin shouted and pointed at the magical image.
"What's wrong?" The Winged Skeleton looked at the Sorcerers with a pair of deep eyes.
"Kill that thing. It's an aquatic Garuda Beast!"
"I know," the Winged Skeleton said calmly. "This thing can be sold for tens of thousands of gold coins at most. A volley of alchemy crossbows won't lose much."
"Then you …"
"I'm not going to fight with that idiot. I'll just spray some ink from the Poison Squid to chase it away." The Winged Skeleton interrupted the Sorcerers.
The Sorcerers were speechless. Although the Winged Skeleton was Salin's contracted creature, it was not something they could command. Although the aquatic Garuda Beast could only be sold for tens of thousands of gold coins …
What do you mean by only tens of thousands of gold coins? Although Salin was filthy rich, it was not to the extent that he could ignore tens of thousands of gold coins. Salin's wealth was mostly materials and equipment. He did not have much real money.
The Winged Skeleton was unwilling to hunt it personally. Using the alchemy crossbows to shoot it was indeed not worth it.
Salin could only say to the Sorcerers under him, "Don't be in a hurry to hunt. The closer we get to the Frozen Sea, the more targets we can attack. Once we enter the Frozen Sea, you might not feel the aquatic Garuda Beast anymore. "
The Sorcerers under Salin were all from Serrig Island. Logically, they would not be so excited about sea beasts. Salin thought to himself. It seemed that the resources controlled by Alchemy City were far inferior to his own Frozen Sea.
Salin began to recall how many sunken ships Nelis and the Winged Skeleton had salvaged from the northern sea. A huge picture gradually appeared in his mind. In ancient times, the invincible human fleet would set off to the north of the plane every year, at the end of the sea, to hunt and obtain endless resources.
Even in ancient times, the Frozen Sea was the most fertile place in the entire plane. Of the four complete dynasties, only the fourth dynasty did not have the power to carry out regular hunting.
In ancient times, the entire warship was built with Thundercloud Wood. Other than sword saints, there were also Magic Shooters on the warship. These people, of course, were equivalent to the sailors of the current era. Even with such a strong collective power, they would often die at the bottom of the sea. It was impossible to ensure the safety of every ship.
He was going to find the graveyard of the Unicorn White Whale. The wealth there would make everyone in the entire plane jealous. They would fight for it at all costs.
"Bing, still no sign of the people from Alchemy City?" Salin could not help but ask.
"Master, still no sign of them. In stealth mode, our compass is definitely not weaker than theirs. We will find them before they do, "the Winged Skeleton answered confidently.
He not only relied on the magic compass, but also released Bone Spirits in the water. About every five miles, there would be a Bone Spirit following the fleet in the sea, swimming towards the Frozen Sea. The Bone Spirits were at the back of the fleet, more than two hundred miles away. The magic compass of Alchemy City would not pay attention to such low-level things, but these Bone Spirits could passively sense the warships of Alchemy City.
"I got it." Salin also knew that his navy could not completely rely on the warships of Seriger Island, but the Dragon Skeleton Warship was an exception. With the performance of this warship, even Alchemy City could not build another one.
Alchemy City would not conspire with the people of Cloud Flow. Even if Alchemy City was a group of selfish sorcerers, they were still a hundred times more arrogant than the people of Cloud Flow. The people of Cloud Flow were a race that made people completely speechless. They were the descendants of the Fourth Dynasty, but now they had degenerated into a group of strange creatures.
For example, the Level Nine sorcerer who had threatened to harass Gushui Prefecture suddenly ran back to Cloud Flow for some unknown reason, and never showed up again.
Daliang City lost the battle. Although the Cloud Flow army suffered great losses, their overall strength was still greater than that of Daliang City. In the end, the people of Cloud Flow retreated very quickly and cleanly. The speed of their retreat was faster than the speed of their attack.
The people of Cloud Flow were in cahoots with the Tanggulas Empire, but they did not ask for the territory that Titan Duchy lost. Instead, they tacitly agreed to the Red River as the boundary between the two countries.
If Alchemy City was in cahoots with the people of Cloud Flow, then Salin would not be too worried about this force of sorcerers.
Now that Alchemy City had stopped the attack of the people of Cloud Flow on the sea, Salin believed that Alchemy City did not use their full strength. And Alchemy City had almost forgotten about the warning from last time. Moreover, whether it was Faka or Joey, they would only make a single move. It was impossible that these two Level Ten experts would stand guard on the sea at all times to guard against Alchemy City's attack.
There must be spies from Alchemy City in the port of Metatlin City. On the sea, there must also be eyes and ears from Alchemy City. Salin did not believe that Alchemy City's ships would not follow him personally to hunt.
It was even possible that Alchemy City would send a large number of Magic Shooters to kidnap him and completely control the sea route of the Frozen Sea.
Salin was waiting for Alchemy City to make a move. He wanted to defeat Alchemy City on the sea once and use the Dragon Skeleton Warship to prove that Metatlin City was not to be trifled with.
On his ship, there were six Level Seven Magic Shooters, more than 30 Great Sorcerers, high-level undead summoned by the Wing Skeleton, and powerful demons summoned by Neris. There were Level Nine Fallen Divine Spells, two Level Nine summoned creatures, and powerful alchemy crossbows that could break through the defense of elemental magic.
Most importantly, he still had the Coiled Turtle alchemy ship. Even if he could not win, he could escape at any time.
This was the real sea, more than 5,000 meters deep. Even a Level Ten expert could not catch up to the Coiled Turtle alchemy ship. Since there was nothing to worry about, Salin had a reason to use himself as bait to teach Alchemy City a lesson.
Alchemy City was too arrogant and forgot that they were not the rulers of the continent.
The fleet had already traveled more than 5,000 miles away from Metatlin City, and the people of Alchemy City still had not appeared. Salin felt that these people were a little too patient. Or rather …
"Master, we found the enemy. They are in front."
The Wing Skeleton's voice suddenly appeared again. Salin quickly looked at the magic image. The Stare of the Undead had already sent the image back. Although it was black and white, he could see more clearly and further.
In the magic image, there was a huge sea covered by clouds. In the clouds, an unimaginably huge warship was faintly discernible. If one were to analyze the various parts of the warship that were exposed from the clouds, this warship was at least 1,000 meters long.
This was no longer a warship, but a moving island on the sea.
