Chapter 215 Battle of the Deep Sea
While Sunan was enjoying the seafood delicacies, Sherman and others, who had just arrived at Rainbow Bay not long ago, had already entered the Rainbow Sea by boat.
On the endless sea.
The ten-meter-high giant ship sailed slowly, parting the water and creating waves.
“This is the Rainbow Sea.”
Atil stared at the sparkling sea more than 500 meters away with bright eyes, and the magnificent violet light rippled in the water waves. , extremely beautiful.
Because the land is located at the intersection of sea and land veins, some spectacle effects occasionally occur here. The sea surface sometimes emits strange shimmers of various colors. This is where the name Rainbow Sea comes from.
Tajana stood on the edge of the deck, curiously looking at the surrounding scenery.
There are no oceans in the underground world, only lakes and swamps.
This was the first time she saw the real sea with her own eyes.
The sparkling, vast sea surface seemed to have no end in sight, and the horizon line intersecting in the distance gave her a sense of open-mindedness and joy.
There is almost no land within sight, only a few seabirds exist, and marine fish seem to be very abundant
It’s just that these fish look all kinds of strange, many of which she has never seen before .
On the other side, Sherman, Corey and Fleming were chatting with a woman.
The woman has a beautiful appearance and an exquisite figure, except that her lower body has a thick snake tail.
This also shows her identity - a noble among the human-faced lions.
In the process of unifying the underground world, the Star Alliance conquered more than a dozen Sphinx city-states, and these Sphinx tribes were eventually assigned to Carolina's command.
This lion-faced noble named Andrea is the lord of one of the city-states.
Now he is the city lord of one of the city-states in Rainbow Bay.
Hearing that they wanted to enter the Rainbow Sea for on-the-spot observation, they took the initiative to accompany them and even brought a group of guides with them.
The so-called guides are actually a group of fishmen.
They are only as tall as the waist of an adult human male, their skin is indigo blue, they have a fish head, their torso and limbs are similar to humans, but they are covered with a layer of fine scales, and the gaps between their fingers and toes There are also webs between them.
These murlocs come from a murloc group offshore of Rainbow Bay.
When the Star Alliance first came to build a city in the bay, they happened to encounter this murloc group coming to plunder, so they sent a golem company to beat them to pieces.
He even chased them directly to the lair, frightening the murloc tribe into immediately surrendering.
Although these fishmen only live in shallow sea areas, they are fairly familiar with the Rainbow Sea, so Andrea accepted them.
The leader of the murlocs is a murloc named Blue Scale, who is diligently introducing information about the Rainbow Sea to everyone.
“There are many poisonous species in the Rainbow Sea. Almost one-fifth of the fish are poisonous. You must carefully identify them before eating.”
“But most of them are not poisonous. The fish here are very delicious. They taste good when cooked in soup, grilled or eaten raw. If you adults want to taste it, just ask me. I am not boasting, my cooking skills are still very good."
The fishman said with a flattering smile on his face, a groveling and flattering look.
It has heard that these people in front of it are more powerful people than Lord Andrea. If it can make them happy, maybe it can be promoted to the clan leader.
Listening to a fishman who volunteered to cook sea fish, both Sherman and Fleming looked a little strange.
“Ahem.” Sherman coughed lightly, “Don’t say any more unnecessary words. Let me ask you, what are the more powerful sea monsters in this sea?”
The fishman scratched Scratching his head, he said awkwardly: "Sir, for us fishmen, sea monsters are very powerful."
"."
Sherman also reacted at this moment and asked even the knight Which sea monsters are more powerful than the murlocs? This is indeed the wrong person to ask.
He turned to look at Andrea, who thought for a while and said: "There are basically no powerful sea monsters in the shallow sea area, but there are many in the deep sea area, such as ichthyosaurs, dragon whales, megalodons, and cangshu. Dragon, squid king, deep jellyfish."
Andrea mentioned dozens of sea monsters in one breath, and finally added with a solemn expression:
"There are two kinds of these sea monsters. If you encounter a third-ring legendary level monster, try to avoid fighting if you can."
Two or three-ring legendary level monsters on land may not be a big deal, but in the sea, they are very troublesome. .
Without the power of one or two realms, it is impossible to deal with these sea monsters.
At this time, there was a sudden commotion on the other side of the deck.
But it was Tatjana who grabbed a monster from the sea.
This weird creature looks like a giant multi-legged freshwater lobster. It is one meter and a half tall and three meters long. Its shell is cyan blue and extremely strong. It has small unblinking eyes and two giant pincers. Thick and powerful, with relatively thick lower limbs and calves.
Although it was imprisoned in mid-air by the hand of the mage, it still screamed loudly, struggled wildly and waved its giant pincers. It was full of aggression at first glance.
“This is the lobster man, with a very low IQ, similar to that of a domestic dog.”
Andrea came to Tajana and Atil, who were looking at the lobster man curiously. , explained softly:
"They are very aggressive, but their combat power is very weak. A trainee knight with rich combat experience can easily kill a lobster man."
Blue Scales came over. , watching the lobster man swallow, rubbed his hands and said with a flattering smile: "Sir, the meat of the lobster man is very delicious. Why don't you give this lobster man to me, and I will make some delicious food for you adults."
Xie Man and others immediately looked at each other, and finally refused.
After all, the lobster people are an intelligent race, and they are also humanoid creatures. Eating their meat is really uncomfortable.
Tajana is very interested in this.
The Dark Elf didn't care about that much. She was curious about the difference between the taste of lobster people and ordinary lobsters.
But seeing that Atil and others refused, she had no choice but to give up the idea.
Andrea said: "Lobster people generally live at the junction of shallow sea and deep sea areas. Now that we have encountered lobster people, it means that we will soon enter the deep sea area."
" We are likely to encounter the Deep Sea Naga and the Siren Siren next, so we have to be careful."
Hearing this, Xie Man and others also stopped having fun and nodded solemnly.
After entering the deep sea area, the number of sea monsters increased significantly.
Sea monsters can be seen fighting each other from time to time along the way. Large areas of blood dye the nearby sea red, and then attract more predators, gradually developing into a big melee.
According to Andrea, similar battles are common in deep sea areas.
When encountering this situation, it is best to stay away immediately, otherwise you will easily be involved in a melee.
Occasionally, sea monsters would attack ships, but they were quickly dealt with by Sherman and others.
There are two third-level wizard apprentices here, so as long as they don’t encounter a three-ring legendary sea monster, there is no need to worry too much. And considering the danger of this operation, Sherman and Corey brought a lot of high-level rune gems.
Even if something unexpected happens, it is not difficult to escape.
Andrea praised: "With these few here, this voyage has become much easier."
"How did you deal with sea monsters in the past?" Fleming asked curiously.
“It’s all solved by the golem enchanted with levitation.” Andrea was a little helpless, “But the golem is too heavy, and the lightness spell must be maintained at all times before it can be carried on the ship. Even so, , the number of golems that a ship can carry is also very limited."
Shaman and others showed understanding.
The weight of the golem easily exceeds ten or twenty tons, and its size is so huge that ordinary ships cannot accommodate just a few of them.
Even if they are all carried into adamantine golems, the combat power of the ship is very limited. If it encounters a slightly larger number of sea monsters, it will only have to flee.
Sometimes even escape is a luxury.
No wonder there has been little progress in the exploration and expansion of the Rainbow Sea.
“Don’t worry, Lord Andrea.” Sherman smiled slightly, “The academy has developed stronger and larger magic ships, and there are also special puppets dedicated to underwater operations. It will be mass-produced and put into operation soon. By then, we will have the power to enter the deep sea."
Andrea looked overjoyed: "That's great!"
It's so pitiful that she has been angry with the Deep Sea Naga and the Siren Siren in recent years, and she has long wanted to deal with those damn guys!
At this moment, a warning sound suddenly came from the observation deck above the deck.
"About two thousand meters ahead, we found the Deep Sea Naga and the Siren Siren!"
Andrea's expression changed slightly, and she immediately came to the edge of the deck and took it from her hand. telescope looking into the distance.
Sherman and his team directly activated the sharp eye earrings worn on their ears. The blue light flashed in their eyes, and their field of vision suddenly zoomed in, landing on the sea two thousand meters away.
A fierce fight was going on on the wide sea.
On one side is a humanoid creature whose lower body is like a big snake and covered with scales. It looks somewhat similar to a lion-faced noble, but it has more sea-blue scales and webbed hands and feet.
“Deep Sea Naga!”
Although he had never seen it with his own eyes, Fleming immediately recognized the origin of these humanoid creatures.
It was very similar to the picture he saw in the book.
His eyes then turned to the other side of the battle.
They were a group of powerful sea monsters riding headhunting sharks, humanoid creatures that also had narrow snake tails.
That's the Siren Siren.
People who don’t understand these two races can easily confuse them.
But in fact there are quite a few differences between the two races.
The body of the Deep Sea Naga has transformed into the characteristics of a fish, while the form of the Siren Siren is almost the same as that of a human being at least in its upper body.
In addition, the Deep Sea Naga is a race with both males and females, but the Siren Sea Monsters only exist in females, and their true race belongs to the Banshee species.
They are half-undead creatures wandering on the sea, but the sea gave them new bodies.
The number of siren banshees is not large, but most of them are very powerful.
They are proficient in illusions, have stunningly beautiful looks, have deadly and beautiful singing voices, and can dominate other marine species. They are a very dangerous existence.
It is worth mentioning that the Siren Banshee was not born through mating and reproduction, but was bred by the sea. It can barely be regarded as a kind of natural spirit, but it represents an evil part of the ocean.
Among the two warring parties, the Deep Sea Naga has a numerical advantage, almost twice as many as the Siren Siren, but in fact it is the Siren Siren that has the upper hand.
They hold tridents and use superb combat skills to defeat many. From time to time they sing loudly and perform illusions.
Even from two thousand meters away, you can still vaguely hear the beautiful and melodious singing.
Luan Lin, who was standing aside, was already in a daze. He subconsciously moved to jump into the sea. After being slapped awake by Fleming, he immediately rolled and crawled into the cabin and blocked his ears. I dare not listen to those songs anymore.
"How strange." A hint of surprise appeared on Adil's expression, "The combat skills used by the Siren Sirens seem to have shadows of the knight's combat skills."
The girl turned to look at Kore.
Among all the people present, Kore was the most accomplished in knight combat skills.
In addition to being a third-level wizard apprentice, he is also a junior knight himself.
"There are indeed shadows of knight's combat skills, and they are very sophisticated. They are not popular products outside. They are probably from famous people." Kore said with a frown.
Although the Siren Siren can also fight in close combat, due to the development of civilization, it is impossible to have the exquisite knight combat skills of humans. Most of them are straight-forward combat skills.
The scene in front of them was somewhat different from the information they learned about the Siren Sea Monster in the book.
"Moreover, have you noticed it?" Sherman suddenly said, "Is the power of the Siren Siren's song a bit too strong?"
Everyone was startled, and then revealed if A thoughtful look.
After being reminded by Sherman, they suddenly realized that even though they were two kilometers away, the song of the Siren Siren could still affect this place, causing Lan Lin to fall into a state of soullessness. , this power is somewhat astonishing.
Either the information they read about the Siren Sirens in the wizard's books was wrong, or there was something wrong with the Siren Sirens themselves.
Sherman asked Andrea: "Are all sirens and sea monsters like this?"
Andrea shook her head and said: "We actually also discovered this problem when we entered the deep sea. Before entering the area, we captured some marine groups in shallow seas and asked for information about the Siren Sirens. The information obtained was different from the Siren Sirens we actually encountered. We suspect that the Siren Sirens may have appeared in recent decades. It gradually became like this.”
“In the past, the Deep Sea Naga was the most powerful intelligent race, always overwhelming the Siren Siren, but in recent decades, the Siren Siren has been the opposite. Gradually overwhelming the Deep Sea Naga."
"As far as I know, in the recent battles, the Deep Sea Naga has been defeated by the Siren Siren."
As if to confirm An. Delia's words, the fight in the distance has already decided the winner.
Under the fierce attack of the Siren Siren, the Deep Sea Nagas were completely defeated and fled in all directions. However, they were soon overtaken by the Siren Siren riding a headhunting shark and stabbed to death with a halberd.
In the end, only a small number of Deep Sea Nagas managed to escape.
After the battle, the group of siren sea monsters did not stop there.
With the sound of a low conch sound, the siren sea monster turned around and rushed towards the ship on a headhunting shark.
