Chapter 113 Arriving at the City of Steam [Rusty Wasteland! 】


Chapter 113 Arriving at the City of Steam - [Rusted Waste City! 】

“It’s a pretty good little talent.”

“It’s not very useful at this stage, but when the quality of the talent is improved, the effect should be very impressive.”

After reading After [The Majesty of the Bronze Dragon], Xia En analyzed secretly.

Then he opened Xiange’s crew panel.

[Crew: Xian Ge·Maya (bound)]

[Race: Bronze Dragon]

[Rank: One]

[Talent: The Majesty of the Bronze Dragon; Pollution resistance; sensitive senses; profound knowledge...]

[Skills: provocation; hand-to-hand combat; dragon language magic...]

[Description: The young dragon has just emerged from its shell and believes that it will eventually have the power to overturn the world. 】

【However, times have changed, and even the powerful ancient dragon community has been destroyed. 】

【As the last bronze dragon in the world, it is destined to recognize reality one day. 】

【"The bronze crown has long been stained with rust. Only the tempering of blood and fire can regain its new life."]

"...Huh?"


Xia En looked at the content on the panel with a strange expression.

He discovered that Xian Ge did not have a [Secret Career], but instead had a [Rank] column.

This may indicate that the growth of the Bronze Dragon is a promotion path that is different from the secret profession.

Think about it carefully.

The levels of Secret Pathers are actually judgment standards set by humans, or in other words, mortals.

For those innately divine beings who are at a higher level when they are born, how do they know what the concepts of first-order and second-order are?

As for Xian Ge’s talents and skills...

[Learned] [Pollution Resistance] is quite normal, mostly due to its racial ability.

But what happened to [Provocation]?

Your ability to dance around in minefields is still a skill, right?

You have to attack the minion with taunt?

Another thing that concerns Xia En is the text in the description.

“A bronze crown?”

“Is this a metaphor?”

“Furthermore, a race as powerful as the Bronze Dragon only has Xian Ge left. One? ”

This kind of thing is actually a bit incredible.

Even humans and vampires can survive the flood by various means. There is no reason that the more powerful ancient dragons will become extinct as a result.

Unless...

There are other reasons that led to the destruction of the ancient dragon!

Thinking again of the "aphasia" curse in the elven bloodline, Xia En vaguely glimpsed one or two unclear afterimages from the fog of history.

As for the "bronze crown", Xia En just thought about it casually and stopped thinking about it.

To this day, he has become somewhat accustomed to the description of "The Riddler" that pops up on the panel from time to time.

Take advantage of the clear weather tonight and the starry sky is exceptionally clear.

Xia En held the chart and compared the heading and route, thinking to himself.

“If nothing unexpected happens, at this rate, we should be able to reach the sea area where [Rusted Waste City] is located in another three days.”

……

……

Perhaps the law of conservation of luck has taken effect.

The [Black Swan], which had already experienced a storm, arrived at the destination of the trip without encountering too many obstacles.

Of course I also encountered a little accident along the way.

For example, I ran into a pirate ship, bumped into some alien sea beasts, and caught some weird stuff while fishing.

But for Xia En now, this is not a big problem.

The sea beast we collided with was eaten as a barbecue.

The strange trophies caught were piled deep in the cabin as a souvenir. With the keels and cannons watching, they obviously did not dare to make mistakes.

As for that pirate ship?

After seeing the [Black Swan], instead of attacking it, it turned around and ran away without hesitation!

After all, now, with Xia En and Fei Ya together, the reward for the [Black Swan] has reached as high as 500 gold dragon coins!

Where do ordinary pirates dare to provoke?

No matter how good the money is, you must have the life to get it!

This made Xia En quite regretful and felt that he had missed a way to make money.

At the same time, as the [Black Swan] heads towards the [Rusty Waste City].

Xia En can also clearly feel that the concentration of secret power contained in the seawater has increased, and the strength of the sea beasts in the seawater has also become stronger.

The reason is not difficult to guess.

Previously, the sea areas where Duke Island, Silver Moon Island and even [Coral City] were located were essentially in the category of "offshore". In this world, the "nearness" of "offshore" does not refer to the distance from the mainland - you can't even find a complete continent in this place, so why talk about distance?

The "near" here refers to the close in the time dimension.

It is the sea area that is submerged later and appears later.

No matter how rapidly the sea level rises, there will always be a sequence in which cities and continents are submerged. Cities further inland will obviously be swallowed up by the sea later.

The sea area where [Rusted Waste City] is located has begun to enter the realm of the "distant sea".

In the open sea, the depth of the water is much greater than that of the offshore sea.

The concentration of the secret power will also increase as the water depth increases, and more terrifying and powerful alien sea beasts will naturally be born, and even indescribable huge sea monsters may appear.

For weak ships and sailors, the open sea is a forbidden area that cannot be touched!

At this moment.

On the deck, Shane looked around.

On the gently wavy sea surface, there were metal spiers like black swords one after another.

Some of them are far apart, and some are close together.

Like solemn and silent tombstones, silently watching every visiting ship.

Seeing this scene, Xia En was sure that he had arrived at the former city of steam - the Rusty Waste City!

“Is this the legendary dark forest of steles?”

Fei Ya stood beside Xia En, looking at the spire on the sea in surprise.

The depth of this sea area can still pierce the surface of the sea, which is enough to explain the towering height of these spiers.

It is difficult to imagine how the people of previous civilizations made these steel spiers.

“It is really spectacular.”

“No wonder some believers of the Church of Steam say this is a miracle of the God of Steam and Steel.”

“But... Ordinary ships would be wary just sailing on this sea, right?”

Hearing Fei Ya's words, Joey nodded on the side.

“It is said that every year, there are countless salvage ships pierced by spiers in [Rust Waste City].”

Obviously, except for these tall towers piercing the sea , there are also a considerable number of spiers hidden under the sea.

If a passing ship is not careful, its hull will be pierced by the spire, and it will hit the tower and sink.

Even Xia En couldn't help but slow down the speed of the [Black Swan] when sailing here, and moved forward cautiously.

"Hmph, the captain who will sink the ship here is just a trash fish."

The young dragon Xiange flapped his wings twice and commented condescendingly: "You are not even qualified to be my slave!"

Xia En glanced at it silently.

Xian Ge's body trembled slightly and said quickly: "Ahem, of course, my captain is not that kind of trash!"

"How can it be so difficult to get Xia Xia in the dark forest of steles? Where’s Captain En?”

"But..."

Xian Ge changed the topic, and thoughts flashed in his eyes: "Those spiers seem to be more than just decorative buildings?"

Hearing this, Xia En's heart moved slightly. .

Based on the past few days of getting along with each other, this young bronze dragon is a bit arrogant, but his eyesight is indeed far beyond that of ordinary people, and he has an extraordinarily keen perception of mysterious powers.

However, even if there is something weird about these black spires, Shane will not change his plan.

He first dropped the anchor and fixed the [Black Swan] in place to avoid hitting the black spire while drifting.

Then let several crew members stand by on board.

After all, this is the first exploration of the [Rusted Waste City], so it would be better to let the projection body explore the way first.

Soon, Shane returned to the captain's cabin.

Open the panel.

"Start submersing!"

...

...

The vision fell into a brief but familiar darkness.

The feeling of falling kept coming.

It's just that it's a little different from the previous submarine.

During the sinking process, a low and hoarse roar reached Xia En's ears.

He was no stranger to this sound, it was the whisper of the steam core.

But at this time, the sounds seemed a little too dense and noisy, as if they were neighing in pain and singing a lament that ordinary people could not understand.

Immediately, Xia En opened his eyes.

A majestic steel city came into view.
