Chapter 101: Storming at sea! [Sir of Yousui]!
The sound of waves reached my ears.
A gust of salty sea breeze blew across the deck, also blowing the captain's uniform on Sean's body.
Similar to the last promotion ritual, he is currently on the projection of the [Black Swan].
However, the weather here is far from the bright and sunny day last time.
The sky was dark and dull, the clouds low and gloomy.
There was a dark and hazy mist on the sea on both sides of the ship, and Xia En could even smell the hidden malice in it.
“The person who came here is not a good person.”
Xia En sighed softly and became extremely vigilant.
Although he seemed to be very relaxed about it, deep down he still attached great importance to the promotion ritual.
On the other hand, with the experience of the last promotion.
How does Xia En know that his promotion ritual seems to be different from others?
Especially in terms of difficulty, it is simply ridiculously high!
At this moment.
The wind and waves on the sea are getting stronger little by little.
Under the already dark sea surface, a huge shadow gradually emerged.
The shadow is like a swelling and shrinking mass of flesh, covering the nearby sea. At its edge, there are a large number of extending and wriggling tentacles, like thousands of waving limbs.
"Hiss..."
Seeing this scene, Xia En couldn't help but his eyelids twitched slightly, and a strong ominous warning arose in his heart.
At the same time, several lines of information appeared in front of his eyes.
[Trial Mission:]
[Escape from the sea where they are, or survive their pursuit for 48 hours. 】
【If the tester dies or the ship sinks into the secret sea, the mission will be deemed a failure! 】
[Note: The time flow rate in this sea area is twice that of reality. 】
After reading this information, Xia En’s mouth twitched.
"Escape...persist..."
These words clearly tell him that it is almost unrealistic to contend with the existence under the sea head-on.
However, another thing that made Xia En secretly frightened was the comment about the flow of time.
"Is this the [Secret Sea]... It can even affect things at the level of time and space."
While he was sorting out his thoughts.
The surrounding wind and waves became visibly larger.
A wave of waves stronger than the previous one began to come continuously from a distance, and the hull of the [Black Swan] swayed in the wind and waves.
Some hazy, vaguely frightening emotions spread along the deck into Xia En's mind.
Even if it is just a projection, it still has some characteristics similar to Xiao Hei.
“Are you scared?”
"Don't be afraid, I am your captain, and I will take you out of here."
Xia En quickly walked to the rudder of the ship without hesitation, and held the familiar yet unfamiliar steering wheel.
Boom!
In an instant, his will washed over the entire ship like a wave, spreading in all directions.
Decks, sails, masts, keels, steam turbines... these components that seemed to be inconsistent with reality still responded to his call resolutely and operated as before.
The captain's majesty cannot be questioned, and at the same time, he also shoulders the fate of the entire ship!
Xia En shouted: "Set sail! Forward!"
The steam core roared deep in the cabin, all the cannons began to rotate, and the raised sails absorbed the wind.
A loud and roaring whistle sounded across the sea!
[Black Swan] suddenly increased its speed and rushed towards the thick fog with no way forward.
Wow!
At the next moment, a pitch-black tentacle that was thicker than the mast emerged from the sea and slammed down on the [Black Swan]!
The tentacles have suckers of various sizes, and each sucker seems to have a moving eyeball.
Countless sharp teeth are scattered around the edges of the eyeballs.
The moment the tentacles appeared, a low and hoarse murmur echoed around.
There was blasphemous malice in this whisper, and the shadows condensed out of thin air in the whisper, causing Xia En to frown slightly.
It’s just that due to the sudden surge in speed of the [Black Swan].
This time the tentacles slapped in vain.
Only a huge, turbid wave was set off on the sea.
However, Xia En did not relax.
Because, under the dark water, there are more tentacles, big or small, surfacing!
“It’s only the second-level promotion trial, why don’t you give me this?”
With Xia En’s psychological quality, at this time, he also had a few thoughts of scolding. .
But now, the situation has reached a point of no return.
There is still a glimmer of hope to ride the wind and waves forward, but if you are afraid of hands and feet, there is only a dead end!
Thinking of this, a fighting spirit emerged from Xia En's heart, and he roared amidst the roaring waves.
"Fire! Give me a fucking blast!"
Boom! boom! boom!
The artillery on both sides of the hull received the captain's order and immediately began the first round of bombardment.
——This projected ship completely replicates the current situation of the [Black Swan], and the ammunition on the ship is no exception.
In an instant, a loud noise like thunder roared across the entire sea area.
The cannonball roared across the sky and landed on the nearest few dark tentacles at the end of the parabola.
These defensive cannons, which were purchased at a large price and have been strengthened, are very powerful. They can directly cause the flesh and blood of the tentacles to crack, and dark purple filthy blood to flow out.
And those shells that missed the target also stirred up huge water columns on the sea, causing the shadows under the sea to tremble slightly.
Sadly.
The effects such as [Desecration] and [Pollution] attached to the cannonballs are not effective against the strange tentacles.
Mostly because their secret powers have something in common.
After being injured by the cannonball, the tentacles became more and more manic and restless, and even let out a wild and uncomfortable roar.
This sound is somewhat similar to the roar of the [Deep Sea Murloc] in the last promotion ritual. Immediately, some smaller but more flexible tentacles emerged from the sea from the bow of the [Black Swan] and climbed onto the deck, trying to entangle the ship and slow down its progress.
Seeing this, Xia En's eyes narrowed.
He knew that once the [Black Swan] slowed down and was dragged into the sea by its tentacles, it was only a matter of time!
Xia En did not hesitate at all. He drew out the sword from his waist, strode forward, and slashed at the tentacles on the deck with one sword.
The sword flashed and blood splattered.
Several broken tentacles fell on the deck.
Those eyes full of teeth stared at Xia En fiercely, and soon lost their life.
[Obtained the trophy "Corpse of Yousui's Descendants"]
[It was detected that "Filthy Crystals" were present in the corpse. Do you want to store it? 】
“The descendants of Yousui?”
“Is it the name of this kind of tentacle? Or... the shadow under the sea?”
Under normal circumstances, Xia En might be happy to obtain [Crystal of Filth].
But right now, he doesn’t even have time to absorb [Filth Crystal]!
On the undulating dark sea, more and more profound tentacles are sweeping towards the [Black Swan]!
……
……
At the same time that Xia En was in a dangerous and strange promotion ritual.
In the Blood Moon Secret Realm.
Several strong men with good auras have also arrived in the hall of the old castle [Red and Black].
The leader is none other than the pale-faced, slightly weak-tempered Archon of Silver Moon Island—"Viper" Quinn!
At this time, many vampire clan leaders were half-kneeling around him, looking at this man with complex eyes that were both awe and uneasy.
Their bodies were generally injured and their breath was sluggish.
This is an injury sustained during the battle with federal reinforcements and survivors.
After receiving the help from the Federation, the overall strength of the [Blood Hunter Guild] has basically reached the same level as the vampires in the secret realm.
Although the previous attack on the castle failed, it also caused considerable losses to the vampires.
Even killed the patriarchs of two families.
However, after "Viper" Quinn led the Silver Moon Island Mystics to arrive.
The situation reversed again.
The survivors were forced to disperse and flee, unable to confront them head-on.
But what makes the vampires in the secret realm feel strange.
After arriving in the secret realm, Quinn seemed not to be in a hurry to destroy the [Blood Hunters], but instead gathered them in the castle first.
Feeling the different looks from everyone, Quinn always had an indifferent expression on his face.
He looked at the coffin belonging to Winston Yeager in front of him.
At this moment, the blood in the coffin has completely dried up.
"It seems that Winston has died in the place of exile."
Quinn raised a smile on his lips and turned to look at the people in the hall: "In that case, I will It is the oldest blood clan here.”
"Just in time, I have something important to announce to you."
This dismissive attitude obviously made some vampire clan leaders a little dissatisfied.
One of them, Warren Kaler, frowned and asked, "Quinn, what do you mean?"
"Is it something to be thankful for when the ancestor died in battle?"
“Yes.”
Under everyone's disbelief, Quinn admitted frankly: "I have been waiting for this day for a long time."
"Unless he dies, my plan will never be implemented."
< br>"What I want to announce to you is..."
"You must all leave the secret realm before the end of this Blood Moon Night, and the rumors of [Blood Moon Night] will also end. "
As soon as these words came out, all the vampires were in an uproar.
They never expected that Quinn would say such a thing.
“Quinn, are you crazy!?”
“Have you forgotten where your roots are?”
“Why do you drive us away? ?”
The vampires who will stay here are basically conservative die-hards. They have enjoyed the comfortable environment of [Blood Moon Secret Realm] for so many years, how can they be willing to leave easily?
In this regard, Quinn just said calmly: "Decades ago, [Blood Moon Night] indeed attracted a large number of foreigners to Silver Moon Island, which made the island continue to grow."
"But now, you old guys are just a burden to Silver Moon Island!"
"Every time [Blood Moon Night], I have to spend a lot of energy and financial resources to deal with those Outsiders must not only kill and silence them, but also pay attention to their revenge and the attention of the federation.”
“And all I do is make you rot and degrade in this place day by day.”
Quinn's eyes swept across everyone coldly and sneered mercilessly.
"The outstanding and talented vampires have long since left this cage-like secret realm and ventured across the seven seas."
"What is left in the end are you stubborn old losers! "
"Is there any need for such a Blood Moon Secret Realm to exist?"
Hearing this, the faces of the vampires turned blue and purple, but they could not refute. words.
Lies will never hurt, the truth is the sharpest knife!
Quinn continued: "And this time, the Federation's action means that things have reached a point of no return."
"Their actions, the first time, the second time. ”
“If you don’t want the entire Silver Moon Island to be buried with you, it’s not too late to end this.”
