Rumble …
Somewhere in the White Sea Trench, rumbling sounds could be heard. Something the size of a small mountain was moving. Through the thick white mist, one could see that it was a huge vehicle.
Unlike the hover vehicles on land, the marine beast army's vehicles were a special species from the five seas — the Mountain Packing Conch.
This was a giant sea snail. Its shell was five meters tall, while the tallest could reach more than ten meters.
The marine beasts could easily tame this species and modify the Mountain Packing Conch into the marine beast army's most commonly used vehicle.
Now, the moving Mountain Packing Conch had four huge wheels on both sides. The shell was covered in a special crystal jade from the five seas that could withstand the bombardment of heavy weapons below the five-star level.
There were also cannon barrels on the shell. The marine beast army's crystal cannons were extremely compatible with the Mountain Packing Conch. The soft body of the giant conch could easily offset the recoil of the crystal cannons.
The huge Mountain Packing Conch carriages were in place. On top of the largest carriage in the middle stood five figures. They were covered in scales and exuded a violent aura.
Two of the figures let out a long howl towards the sky, emitting a terrifying howl. It actually attracted the rain clouds in the sky, and the gathering rain clouds gradually dissipated.
The other three figures stared straight ahead. Their blood-red eyes seemed to see through the mist and clearly saw the scene of the Foka Tower's hover vehicles approaching.
These three marine beast experts were the White Sea Trench's marine beast army's three captains.
Ever since the hundred-year war, the White Sea Trench's marine beast army had always only had three captains. This time, all three captains were mobilized for the captive exchange. It was clear how important this operation was.
Captain Les was the leader of the three captains. He wore thick and heavy armor. Upon closer inspection, it was actually made from a special energy crystal. He looked like a crystal statue and was abnormally heavy.
However, Captain Les' movements were very agile. His nearly three-meter tall body didn't feel clumsy at all. As he stared ahead, a ruthless murderous intent flashed across his eyes.
"It's just as that person said. Someone really wants to snatch this batch of captives. The creatures on land are getting bolder and bolder …" Captain Les said coldly.
At the side, the two army commanders were silently observing the situation in front of them. Each of them had their unique sensing abilities, and they were observing the situation in front of them, ready to move out at any time.
A brief moment later, the two roaring oceanic beasts finally stopped and they couldn't help coughing.
"Revered Elders, you've worked hard!"
Upon seeing this, Cyrus hurriedly bowed respectfully.
The other two legion commanders also smiled. Their expressions were filled with respect for their elders.
These two sea beast experts were sent by the sea beast royalty to assist in the captive exchange.
Sea beasts that had the ability to control the weather were extremely rare in the five seas. Every single one of them would be courteously received by the royal family.
A thousand years ago, the tsunami that engulfed the Foka Tower was caused by the Sea Beast Royal Clan mobilizing a thousand of these sea beast experts. Coupled with the tides of the White Nightmare Sea at that time, it caused such a huge disaster.
Currently, the number of oceanic beasts that possessed the ability to control the weather was decreasing. As such, their status among the oceanic beasts was growing more and more revered.
The two sea beast experts waved their hands. One of them was an elder. As he coughed, he said in a low voice, "Legion Commander Cyrus, the opponent this time is not simple. We've stopped Yu Yun's illusion, but we can't detect any traces of the other party. Be careful, the other party will probably make another move. "
Upon hearing this, the expressions of Cyrus and the other two legion commanders changed. They were all quasi-Nightmare-level oceanic beasts, comparable to a level-six cultivator on land. Their combat power was even above level-six cultivators.
For this captive exchange, they had brought along the elite troops of the oceanic beast army.
There were also two revered elders from the royal family. With such a lineup, they could start an all-out war with the Foka Tower. Did these two elders think that the enemy was difficult to deal with?
"Cough, cough, cough …"
The sea beast elder coughed dryly and panted softly. "Other than the ability to control the weather, our race is also very sensitive to changes in the outside world. I feel very uneasy. It's not because of the enemy that attacked just now. There are several other dangers … "
The expressions of the three legion commanders changed. They did not doubt the elder's words at all. The latter was actually being humble when he said that they were "very sensitive".
The perception of the oceanic beasts of this race was not just very sensitive. Among them, the most talented geniuses could even become seers.
Legion Commander Cyrus's face twitched. He revealed a sinister expression and revealed his sharp teeth. "Could it be that Filon wants to play some tricks? Then I'll annihilate all the soldiers he sent! "
"There shouldn't be any problems with the Foka Tower. However, the secret held by that person in our batch of captives will attract too many enemies …" The sea beast elder's expression darkened as he said in a low voice.
Cyrus and the other two legion commanders looked over and waited for the sea beast elder to continue. They were aware of Marqio's identity. She was a noble of the royal family and had an extremely pure bloodline of the oceanic beasts.
A few years ago, Marqio had gone to the White Nightmare Trench under the orders of the legion headquarters in the White Nightmare Sea. She was to infiltrate the Foka Tower and carry out a secret mission.
Cyrus and the other legion commanders were well aware that they only knew a part of the mission. A royal sea beast of such status would go undercover in the Foka Tower and marry a human man.
This was a great humiliation to Marqio. With her status, she was qualified to be the partner of a prince among the oceanic beasts.
Therefore, Cyrus and the other legion commanders were very curious about the other secret mission that Marqio had accepted. It was a mission personally issued by the royal family.
The sea beast elder looked at the three legion commanders and sighed inwardly. He knew that if he did not divulge any information, Cyrus and the other legion commanders might not do their best.
After all, the exchange of captives had already caused a huge commotion in the White Nightmare Sea. To the oceanic beasts, they would rather die in battle than become captives and be exchanged.
Although the royal family had absolute prestige among the oceanic beasts, they had innate control over the low-rank oceanic beasts due to their royal bloodline.
However, the exchange of captives could easily incite dissatisfaction among the oceanic beasts. If this dissatisfaction was not resolved properly, it would severely affect the ruling of the royal family.
The sea beast elder calculated for a moment and said in a low voice, "The restoration technique of the [Poseidon Weapon]!"
What?!
Poseidon Weapon!?
The expressions of Cyrus and the other two legion commanders changed to shock. Especially Cyrus, his entire body was trembling in shock and excitement.
[Poseidon Weapon] was the reason why the ancient oceanic beasts could obtain such a huge advantage in the war against the land legions.
As the [Poseidon Weapon] was damaged one by one, the restoration technique was lost. Coupled with the continual growth of the land beings, the war between the land and the five seas had reached a stalemate.
"Did Marqio … find it …" Cyrus asked anxiously.
"I'm not sure. However, she used the royal family's communication method and risked her life to send back information. She said that she must be exchanged for her. There must be a huge discovery. "
The sea beast elder looked at Cyrus and revealed more information. He was satisfied to see that the expressions of Cyrus and the other two legion commanders had become resolute.
Cyrus, in particular, had a fanatical obsession. He clenched his fists and guaranteed that the captive exchange would be successful.
The other four sea beast experts knew why Cyrus was so enthusiastic. The latter's tribe had a damaged [Poseidon Weapon]. If it could be repaired, Cyrus's strength would increase greatly.
At this time, hover cars flew over and stopped at the agreed location.
Bang bang bang …
Under the control of the sea beast knights, seahorse-like mounts quickly surrounded the caravan.
"Don't attack. We have a message from Commander Filon to pass to your legion commander Cyrus. You better move quickly. "
A burly man jumped down from one of the hover cars. His dragon-like muscles bulged under his military uniform, and his dense killing intent made the sea beast knights unwilling to approach him.
This was the Senior Colonel Right Nest of the Foka Tower Legion …
A sea beast knight recognized him and immediately brought this burly man to the Pack Mountain Snail Carriage where Legion Commander Cyrus was.
A moment later, the message device was in the hands of Legion Commander Cyrus. After listening to it, his face turned stern.
"Filon didn't play any tricks this time …"
After listening to the message, Cyrus clenched his fist and crushed the device.
The expressions of the other four sea beast experts changed. Lieutenant General Filon's message informed the Foka Tower that there was a suspicious force eyeing these captives.
Hence, Filon sent the most elite troops to escort them. Senior Colonel Right Nest was one of the candidates to replace the legion commander. He was also sent over to show his sincerity.
Not only that, Filon also promised that if a battle really broke out, he would send reinforcements in time.
Of course, the condition was that the remaining compensation had to be paid.
"Filon, that greedy human! He didn't play any tricks. Isn't it just for the remaining compensation … "
The four sea beast experts gritted their teeth. Even though the five seas had far more resources than the land, they still felt the pinch.
"Since the captives are here, pay them the remaining compensation. As for the reinforcements from the land, we don't need them. I don't want to see the land army stab us in the back … "Cyrus said coldly.
The sea beast experts present nodded in agreement.
…
On the other side.
Not far from the White Sea Trench, there was a command center inside a highland.
Lin Chuan and the others were all here. Light screens were erected, and images flashed on them, covering the entire area of the White Sea Trench.
The image displayed on one of the light screens happened to be a rain cloud that was rapidly condensing and then mysteriously dissipating.
'Are the sea beasts sending out powerful sea beasts who can control the weather?' Lin Chuan was incredibly interested in this.
On the continent, many races had secret techniques that could rapidly condense rain clouds. This was an ancient technique.
Now, with the rapid advancement of mechanical technology and the use of water attribute energy crystals, there were many ways to achieve this.
However, this type of sea beast was different. They could rely on their innate talent to summon the wind and rain.
It was said that the most powerful of these sea beasts could create a tsunami on their own.
A thousand years ago, the Sea Beast Army had mobilized hundreds and thousands of these sea beasts to create that terrifying tsunami that engulfed the high tower of Faka a thousand years ago.
Hayashi River was very curious about this. To be able to summon the wind and rain purely by relying on their innate talent, it would make sense if they were geniuses that appeared occasionally.
However, this type of sea beast had such an ability, so it was worth researching.
"Don't think about those research ideas. Should we bide our time? Let's search this place. I suspect that the woman is here … "
Seeing that Hayashi River was in a daze, Fei Yu could not help but chide him. This young Mechanic was good at everything except for the fact that he would suddenly think of a research direction and wander off for a while.
Hayashi River came back to his senses and looked at the light screen that Fei Yu was pointing at. It was a hill very close to the White Sea Trench. He also guessed that the expert controlling the rain clouds was there.
However, Hayashi River shook his head and did not agree to search there.
"Right now, we are in the dark, and the other party is about to turn from the dark to the light. At this time, it's better to just watch. Before we know the strength of the opponent, isn't it better to observe quietly …" Hayashi River said.
Isn't this person a little too cautious?
Fei Yu, Fowler, Heng Feng, and the others all looked over. They felt that Lin Chuan was being overly cautious. If the forces they had mobilized this time were to be unleashed one by one, they could easily crush the sea beast army in the White Sea Trench.
Of course, the prerequisite was that they could break into the sea beast army's moving thorn fortress …
"If it were me, I would at least have the strength to annihilate the entire sea beast army if I dared to snatch these captives from them …"
"Or perhaps they have some other special method …"
"No matter which one it is, I don't think it's worth taking the risk. Anyway, we've already gotten the compensation, so we won't lose anything."
Lin Chuan shrugged. He would not do that just because they had a powerful army of fighting machine masters, the main army of Faka Tower, the suicide squads hired by the black market, and a lineup of more than five Realm Seven elites was enough to make them very safe.
If it were really safe, his forehead would not have been throbbing from the moment he entered this command center.
Boom!
Suddenly, the images on the light screens in the command center started to shake, and a strong energy reaction alarm sounded.
In fact, not only were the images shaking, but the entire command center was also shaking, as if it was going to collapse at any moment.
What's going on?
Everyone looked at the light screens, searching for the reason. Then, they saw a gigantic figure gliding over the dense trench, heading straight for Rus's Oceanic Beast Army.
The images continued to analyze, and they quickly captured the true appearance of this figure.
"This is … a Giant Steel Soldier from the Dark Age?"
Fowler exclaimed. He was the first to recognize the origin of this figure.
