The White Nightmare King Warship!?
On the battlefield near the White Nightmare Trench, groups of troops quickly retreated, not wanting to be affected.
These troops were all very frightened, because unlike the enormous sky fortress, the White Nightmare King Ship's fearsome reputation was simply too great.
This was a strategic weapon used by the Sea Beast Kings of the Five Seas in the final battle against the Sea Beast Army during the Dark Ages.
In that battle, the White Nightmare King Warship's power was destructive, and the giant crossbow it carried became the nightmare of the land armies.
It was only after a long time, and after much research, that some people on the land found out that the giant crossbow was a type of [Poseidon Weapon], and it was a heavy weapon.
It was rumored that once the giant crossbow was activated, one arrow could pierce through the sky, one arrow could split a kingdom in half …
Although the Sea Beast Army retreated back to the Five Seas in the final battle of the Dark Ages and signed a weak treaty with the land, the reputation of the White Nightmare King Warship was engraved in the hearts of the land beings.
Of course, many people thought that these rumors were exaggerated and not true.
Splitting a kingdom with one arrow was simply unimaginable. The power of a Nine Star Heart Origin Equipment was far from reaching this level.
If it was said that one arrow could split a city, then it was somewhat believable …
However, no matter how exaggerated the rumors were, one thing was certain. No one could withstand an arrow from this giant crossbow on the battlefield.
At the same time.
On the other side, Liu Shou and the other experts were also stunned by the appearance of the White Nightmare King Warship.
There was an agreement between the land and the Sea Beast Army regarding this strategic weapon. Unless it was absolutely necessary, neither side would violate the agreement and activate the White Nightmare King Warship.
The woman was also stunned. Activating this Sky Fortress already made her heart ache. Whether it was the Sky Fortress or the Steel Giant Soldiers, the energy needed to activate it was a huge problem.
This was not a problem of the energy consumption, but part of the functions of the Sky Fortress and the Steel Giant Soldiers. The energy needed to activate them could not be replenished.
So be it if she felt heartache. As long as she could snatch these Sea Beast captives away, these losses would be worth it.
But now, the White Nightmare King Warship had suddenly appeared, truly messing up her plans.
"This is a violation of the Land and Five Seas Treaty. We need to find an official channel to immediately send a warning to the White Nightmare King Warship. The sea beasts have violated the treaty and want to find the Eastern and Western Continents to besiege …"
She was confident in the defense of the Sky Fortress, but she wasn't sure if it would be able to withstand an arrow from the giant crossbow.
"Madam, the White Nightmare Warship did not violate the treaty. That giant warship did not sail into the waters of the Foka Tower …" An expert reminded in a low voice.
Only then did the experts realize that the agreement between the land and the Sea Beast Army was that strategic weapons like the White Nightmare King Warship could not enter the coastal waters of the land.
From afar, the position of the White Nightmare King Ship did not violate the agreement.
In the fragile agreement between the continent and the Five Seas, whether or not those strategic weapons would be used was determined by entering the other party's territory.
After all, why would he need to report to the other party if he were to use strategic weapons for a military exercise in his own territory?
"This …" The woman gritted her teeth so hard that they made creaking sounds.
Rumble!?
Suddenly, a thunderous roar rang out. The giant crossbow at the bow of the White Nightmare King Ship was activated. Without any warning, the bowstring vibrated, and a giant arrow was shot out, leaving a long trail in the air.
* Bang … * Under the cloudy sky, the huge arrow seemed to have been ignited. It emitted a dazzling radiance, and the arrowhead made of special energy crystals suddenly leaped out of it. It roared at the sky, and a resounding roar resounded.
The giant beast was shaped like a giant whale, but it had a pair of wings and a single horn on its head. Its roar was like the roar of a dragon, shaking the heavens and earth.
Hayashi River felt a prickling pain in his forehead as he witnessed this scene. That terrifying sense of danger washed over him. The power of this arrow was indeed as terrifying as the rumors said it could pierce through the sky.
Under the sky, the giant fortress trembled, and ripples visible to the naked eye spread out layer by layer. Like layers of a giant tortoise shell, the Sky Fortress was enveloped within.
Boom …
In the next moment, a terrifying collision sound rang out. The giant arrow collided with the layers of tortoise shell, and shockwaves spread out. Countless sparks flew, and the arrowhead spun on the tortoise shell-like defensive barrier. The ear-piercing sound continued to spread, and even the Foka Spire in the distance could hear it.
In fact, everyone in the Foka Spire was stunned. Many of them were trembling, as though they had returned to that night of war not long ago.
On the outskirts of the Foka Spire, Lieutenant General Feilong stood in the command center with a cold expression. He stared at the collision between the two giants, and the veins on his forehead throbbed.
"Contact the Machinists Guild and the Eastern Continent Allied Forces Command Center immediately. Ask them how we should respond if we are invaded by these two giants!"
"They only know how to reduce the support for the Foka Spire every year. I'd like to ask, if we were to be humiliated by these two giants, how would we fight …"
…
Lieutenant General Feilong roared. The aide-de-camp quickly dialed the number and contacted the Machinists Guild and the Eastern Continent Allied Forces Command Center.
Lighting a cigar, Lieutenant General Feilong took a deep puff, and his heart palpitated.
He had actually predicted such a situation when he was formulating the plan with Mr. Bone and the rest.
Of course, this prediction was only a hypothesis, and he didn't think it would happen.
In fact, when that young Mechanic mentioned that the Royal Sea Beasts might use a strategic weapon like the Poseidon Weapon in order to bring Marqio back safely, Lieutenant General Feilong felt that the possibility of this hypothesis was too low.
In this regard, Lieutenant General Philon felt that the possibility of this hypothesis was too low. Once such a strategic weapon was used, the entanglement would be too great. It was more likely that a group of level-seven powerhouses would be mobilized.
However, he didn't expect the Royal Sea Beasts to not only send level-seven powerhouses, but also activate the White Nightmare King Warship. This was no longer as simple as the Poseidon Weapon.
The White Nightmare King Crystal Crossbow and the White Nightmare King Warship that carried it were the symbol of the Royal Sea Beasts of the White Nightmare Sea. Mobilizing this strategic weapon represented Marqio's importance.
"It's best if these two big fellows perish together, then it'll be over …" Lieutenant General Feilong murmured.
At this moment, the connection between the headquarters of the Machinists Guild and the headquarters of the Great Eastern Continent Allied Forces was connected. Lieutenant General Feilong put down his cigar, and his expression became more serious. He wanted to take this opportunity to ask for more resources from both sides.
If he didn't make full use of such a good opportunity, then he didn't deserve to sit in this position.
…
At the edge of the battlefield.
Around Hayashi River and the rest, the defensive shield formed by the Mechanical Bees was on the verge of collapse under the shocking collision in mid-air, and cracks appeared on it.
This scene caused the other companions to quickly take up defensive measures. Only after layers of defense were stacked together did everyone feel more at ease.
"Is this the power of the Poseidon Weapon?!"
"This is not only the power of the Poseidon Weapon, but also the power of the Poseidon Warship carried by the White Nightmare King Warship. There's a fundamental difference between the two."
"You two old fellows, stop talking. Let's leave this place quickly. My heart is beating so fast. Why did I bump into these two big fellows …"
…
Among the crowd, Old Aidan and Hawuya were explaining the knowledge of the Poseidon Weapon. Fowler and Little White felt that it was too noisy, and the other two wanted to go somewhere safe. This place was too dangerous.
Hayashi River and the rest weren't worried. The defensive equipment they carried was strong enough. Unless they were attacked, they wouldn't be in danger.
Wisps of spiritual energy spread out. Hayashi River watched the collision in the sky. It had been two minutes, and the power of the arrow didn't weaken. Instead, its penetrating power was getting stronger and stronger. It had already broken through half of the defensive shield of the Sky Fortress.
He could feel that there was a terrifying ocean-like power in the crystal arrowhead of the arrow.
The true power of the arrow lay in the crystal arrowhead.
This was the power of the special energy crystals produced in the five seas, and it was made with the skills of the Sea Beasts to create such a terrifying weapon.
The power of this arrow alone was not as fast as those legendary masters. Although there was a gap between the power of an arrow that could destroy an entire country, this arrow could easily pierce through a city.
"Poseidon Weapon … the skills of the Sea Beasts …"
Turning his eyes, Hayashi River stared at the Sky Fortress and murmured, "Who made such a huge city in the sky?"
While he was thinking —
The situation in the sky changed. The arrow finally pierced through the layers of turtle shell defense and shot directly at the Sky Fortress. Its power didn't weaken at all.
In the sky, it was like a giant beast from the deep sea rushing into the sky and crashing into the Sky Fortress.
Such a scene made people have no doubt that the Sky Fortress would be pierced through …
Suddenly, something strange happened. At the bottom of the Sky Fortress, a huge door opened, and a huge metal claw reached out and slapped the arrow.
Sizzle …
Sparks flew all over the sky. The huge arrow was knocked away, and a deep hole was left in the huge metal claw.
"Huh?!"
"The arrow fell …"
"Is this the arrow of the Poseidon Weapon?!"
…
On the battlefield, many people's eyes lit up with greed. This arrow was a part of the Poseidon Weapon. It was priceless!
Hayashi River also frowned. He was tempted as well. He promised his companions that if they could get this arrow, he would design and create a Six-Star Heart Energy Equipment for them in the future.
Buzz …
On the White Nightmare Sea, the huge warship let out a strange whistling sound. The arrow that fell from the sky trembled and quickly flew back to the White Nightmare King Warship.
This scene caused countless people to wring their hands in pity, and many people were already prepared to disregard everything to seize this arrow.
"So it's equipped with a retrieval device …"
Hayashi River sighed and shook his head. There was no other way.
His other companions shook their heads. As expected of the personality of a Mechanic. Seeing something like this, he would make such a crazy move.
Ding …
At this time, Hayashi River's expression changed. He received an image sent by Blue Kitty through the Sensory Goggles.
"Finally, this should be Lady Rain's other backup plan …" Hayashi River murmured.
In the image, it showed a strange-looking place. The walls had a bright pattern, which was the interior of the Mountain Carrying Snail.
In the image, there was Marqiao's figure and five powerful sea beasts … There was an intense battle in the room. A group of mysterious experts barged in and attacked crazily, trying to snatch Marqiao away.
Hayashi River recognized that among these mysterious experts, there were members of the Black Net Organization …
Boom …
In the center of the battlefield, explosions sounded one after another. Troops suddenly appeared from all directions and rushed into the sea beast army like crazy demons. They actually tied bombs to their bodies and perished together with the sea beasts.
This tragic scene stunned the other teams on the battlefield. Both sides were very confused. Which side did this sudden suicide squad belong to …?
However, this sudden attack tore a hole in the sea beast army that had been retreating like a turtle.
Suddenly, an alarm sounded, and a team rushed out of the battlefield with a captive sea beast.
On the sand, a hole suddenly appeared and swallowed the team. Then, there was a roar from underground, and it quickly went far away.
From underground?!
This scene left countless people dumbfounded. Just what kind of device was this? It could travel underground at such a high speed.
Boom boom boom …
At the same time, in mid-air.
"Is this the real method that Lady Rain prepared … How wonderful!"
Hayashi River couldn't help but exclaim. When the Sky Fortress appeared, he expected that Lady Rain would have other means to snatch these sea beast captives.
He didn't expect that she had prepared a batch of soldiers from underground.
It was too far from the center of the battlefield. Even if Hayashi River monitored the area, he still didn't detect such movements.
At this time, the Sky Fortress shook and shot down a beam of light. Under the sand, a protrusion spread and quickly rushed to the location of the beam of light.
Then, figures flew up from the beam of light and entered the Sky Fortress.
Then, with a roar, the huge Sky Fortress quickly rose into the sky and disappeared into the clouds.
In the distance, on the White Nightmare Sea, the White Nightmare Royal Warship also dived and sank to the bottom of the sea. Soon, it disappeared in the huge waves.
On the battlefield, the various troops that came to attack also retreated at the speed of the tide and quickly left the White Nightmare Trench.
As for the sea beast army in the center of the battlefield, they retreated even faster and quickly retreated to the military fortress in the White Nightmare Trench …
In a short time, the entire area was cleared. If it weren't for the corpses on the ground, people might even suspect that nothing had happened.
…
"They retreated so quickly?!"
"The sea beast captives were snatched away, and the sea beast army just let it go …"
…
Only the troops dispatched by the Foka Spire remained on the battlefield. Witnessing this scene, these troops were dumbfounded. They still didn't understand what was going on.
On the other side.
Lin Chuan saved the data he gathered and got up. He called out to his companions and quickly left.
"Have all the sea beast captives been snatched away?"
On the way, Fei Yu asked. The other companions all looked attentively at Hayashi River.
"Marqiao was taken back by the sea beast army, and the other captives, like Reggins and the other sea beasts, were snatched away … Both sides should be able to accept this result …"
Hayashi River said this. On the battlefield, he was probably the one who understood the situation of the White Nightmare Royal Warship and the Sky Fortress the best, apart from the sea beast royal family and Lady Rain.
From the analysis of the collected data, both the White Nightmare Royal Warship and the Sky Fortress would not be able to withstand an intense head-on collision. The White Nightmare Royal Warship was because the [Poseidon Weapon] was damaged, while the Sky Fortress was because of a lack of energy.
"If the true power of that giant crossbow is fully unleashed, it should be as the legends say. It can really break through the territory of a kingdom with one arrow …"
"Of course, there's a price to pay. The price is that the [Poseidon Weapon] will be severely damaged …"
…
The group sat in the hover car, and Lin Chuan pressed on the sensor goggles, receiving the information that Lan Xiaomiao had sent him. This was information that he had found from some ancient records, and it was about the battles that the White Nightmare Warship had experienced during the final battle of the dark age.
One of the battles did involve the destruction of a small country in the Western Continent, and the White Nightmare Royal Warship participated.
Because it was too long ago, this part of history was already very blurry. However, from this, it could be inferred that the giant crossbow indeed had the power to destroy heaven and earth.
"As for the Sky Fortress, from the collected data, it indeed has the combat power to clash head-on with the White Nightmare Royal Warship. The two should be considered as strategic weapons of the same level."
"However, if the two were to clash head-on, there's more than a seventy percent chance that both sides would be destroyed. This result should be something that neither side would want to see."
"That giant warship is the deterrent weapon of the sea beast royal family in the White Nightmare Sea. Isn't the Sky Fortress the same to that woman …"
…
Hayashi River said this. Be it the damage to the White Nightmare Royal Warship or the energy loss of the Sky Fortress, both sides could not accept it. Therefore, after Lady Rain snatched Reggins, she could accept this result.
As for the sea beast royal family, their goal was to exchange for Marqiao, so they naturally gave up on the idea.
…
Speaking up to this point, Hayashi River smiled. "We should be very satisfied with this result."
The group of companions was a little stunned. Indeed, they were the ones who benefited the most from this result.
"That's it? I thought there was going to be a big battle … "
Heng Feng muttered to himself. He was prepared to fight with all his might, and Mr. Xie Gu.
But now, he realized that the plan had already ended, and it was very successful. He did not even put in much effort.
"If Mr. Heng Feng doesn't mind, we can stay in the Foka Tower for a few more days and exchange our insights …" Mossy Bone said.
Hearing this, Heng Feng nodded happily. He had the same intention.
Hayashi River, on the other hand, lowered his head and continued to study the harvested data. Lady Rain, and the Black Net team that appeared just now …
"Looks like it won't be easy to uproot the Black Net …" Hayashi River muttered to himself.
Arriving at the Foka Tower, he and Mossy Bone were already preparing for the complete eradication of the Black Net.
After all, with the victory in Nanluo City and the support of the Redbud descendant and the leader of the sea dragons in Davo City, Hayashi River and Mossy Bone had absolute confidence in their plan against the Black Net.
Now, Hayashi River shook his head. In the end, he had underestimated the Black Net. Although this huge organization had declined, it was still a centipede.
Regardless of the relationship between Lady Rain and the Black Net, based on today's battle, this woman would definitely intervene when they went against the Black Net in the future.
To be able to obtain the support of so many factions, and to possess such terrifying weapons as the Sky Fortress and the Giant Steel Soldier, as well as the power she possessed in the Great Star Ao County … No matter how one looked at it, she was an extremely difficult opponent.
Of course, Hayashi River wasn't too worried. In the current situation, the enemy was out in the open, while he was in the dark.
Moreover, he had an excellent spy in the enemy's ranks, Six Hands.
"There are traces of elven and dwarf manufacturing techniques in the Giant Steel Soldier. None of you have any impression of it …"
Hayashi River thought of something and turned to look at Mossy Bone, Old Aidan, and the others. The Redbud Corps had relevant ancient records that recorded many secrets of the Dark Age.
Old Aidan and the others shook their heads. The appearance of the Giant Steel Soldier was already during the period when the Redbud Corps was in decline. It was a long time ago, so there was no record of it in the ancient records.
Hayashi River shook his head in disappointment, then glanced at Fowler, who also shook his head, hinting that there was no mention of the Giant Steel Soldier or the Sky Fortress in the inheritance that Cromwell had left behind.
…
Meanwhile.
High up in the sky, the flying machine that looked like a steel city was suspended, layers of shields covering the Sky Fortress. When light shone on it, it actually distorted.
* Rumble … *
There was a roar from the Sky Fortress, and the giant flying machine began to blur, as if it would disappear at any moment.
Inside the fortress, the situation was completely different from what Hayashi River and the others had guessed. From time to time, there would be the sound of metal rubbing against the ground. Apart from that, it was very quiet, without a trace of life.
* Whoosh! *
A metal door opened, and Madam Rain walked in. She looked around at the rusty metal walls, the ground, and the mechanical marionettes that were still working but moving slowly.
"The energy consumption this time is too great. It has already affected the normal operation of Yeya City …" Madam Rain sighed.
* Ding! *
A ray of light swept over her delicate body, and then a cold electronic voice sounded, "Bloodline matches. Identity verified. Welcome back, Lord Rain."
Madam Rain stepped forward, the fine scales on her face rapidly fading. She passed through the silent metal courtyard and entered a room, where a man was already waiting.
A man sat on a chair in the room with his back facing Madam Rain. There was a bottle of wine on the table, and the wine bottle was made of clear crystal.
Hearing the sound of the metal door sliding, the man did not turn his head. He smiled and said, "Welcome back in victory. This time, you have gained a lot of face in front of the Shadow Clan. You are indeed worthy of being the respected Lord Rain. "
"Hmph! Don't be sarcastic. I know you feel that the price you paid this time is too high. However, this is all my business. I've already paid enough to hire your Black Net. "
Madam Rain's face turned cold. She did not have the slightest smile that she had in front of others. Instead, she revealed a cold murderous aura.
"Tsk tsk tsk … I have no intention of mocking you. I am just worried about you, Lord Rain. Do you think it is really worth it to pay such a high price and not be able to snatch the key marine beast royal family?" The man turned his head. It was a middle-aged man with a cold face.
If Hayashi River was here, he would recognize this man's voice. It was the voice of the leader of the Black Net organization that he had opposed in the mechanical hive.
