Soul of Burning Steel

"You foresee it a long time ago?"

Hill looked back abruptly. He recalled the soldier's previous behavior of looking at the sea, and asked Joshua in a low voice: "You were observing just now, but why not?"

"Foreseeing an attack will happen, does not mean that I can foresee what kind of attack." Joshua turned her head and explained to the elf boy and the two-headed dragon: "A weird ocean current and black fog, at best, I would be wary of the possibility. It’s impossible to know what consequences it will cause."

There is nothing wrong with the soldier's words. Such an attack is indeed unpredictable.

On the side of the ark, the dark waves shimmered with magical gleams. Although the powerless white ark was not overturned by the inverted tide under the protection of the Holy Light rune, it could only stay in place helplessly and endure it. Heavy rains and waves made it impossible to move on.

"Go back to the ark first." In the end, Joshua made the decision. He took the black into the cabin, and after Hill frowned and stared at the strange black water for a while, he also entered the cabin with Fina.

In the cabin, Robzek, Saya and Loranda are discussing.

"The magic hearth in the power chamber is still running." The silver-haired paladin did not panic because of the current unexpected situation. He pointed to the light curtain floating in the air and calmly summarized the current situation: "But these magic powers can't be transmitted. To each engine."

In the light curtain is a structural diagram of a huge ship, and every detail of the Ark is on it. At this time, except for the power room and a few cabins which are still "well-functioning" green, most of the hull has become "Not working" in red.

"The black dust in the sea is a strange substance... I have never seen anything like this on the Mykrov continent, but it looks a bit like a crystal?"

Saya is holding a test tube filled with turbid sea water. The sea water is full of black dust like sand. These dust move up and down spontaneously without any external power, as if there is life.

The great nun looked at the test tube in her hand and seemed to be thinking: "I have been to inspect the magic crystal veins near the volcanic islands, and the magic crystal dust inside is somewhat similar to it."

But the magic crystal is to carry magic power, but this kind of crystal absorbs magic power, there is a huge difference between the two.

And Loranda on the side had no words. He just frowned and stared at the test tube in Saya's hands. For the current situation, the blond Paladin had a familiar feeling, but he couldn't find the source.

The Ark loses its magic power, crystal dust...In other words, it is a crystal with extremely high absorption capacity for magic power.

With a little guess, Loranda asked for the test tube from Saya, and then tried to inject some vindictiveness.

The tossing black dust was like a shark smelling blood, and immediately absorbed the vindictive energy injected by the Paladin. At this point, Loranda can roughly determine that these crystal dusts are similar to the wild **** shell in the records of the Radcliffe family. Very high similarity, it has a very high immunity to magic and grudge.

Looking at Robzek and Saya hesitantly, the blond Paladin hesitated, whether he wanted to make his own guess to the two of them. He himself felt a little absurd. Obviously the goal of this trip was the Abyssal Fissure, but the family members of the Cthulhu Famine appeared one after another Blocking is simply inexplicable.

The grand nun and the knight leader are still discussing, but they didn't care what this kind of dust is. The focus of the discussion between the two is how the next action should be completed.

"The Ark is less than a day's journey from the Central Maelstrom."

Robzek pointed at the light curtain, and on the light curtain appeared the map of the sea area of ​​the Abyss of Arnos. On the dark map, there were two light spots of red and white flashing: "The red light spot is the central maelstrom, because there is a sea south of the distant sea. The ocean current is impacting, and it is constantly shifting towards the northwest direction of Metropolis, where we are. The white light spot is us. Originally, at the relative speed of the two, it can come to it at 11 o’clock this evening. Edge, but it’s not good now."

He calculated in his mind for a while, and then continued: "If the speed of the great vortex's displacement does not change, we won't be able to touch its edge until four o'clock in the morning the day after tomorrow... But the possibility is very small, and the impact of ocean currents can't be constant. "

"Should we switch back-up energy and sail with the energy of the Pyxi Star?" Saya thought for a while and made this suggestion: "These black dusts are afraid of the power of the Holy Light, and it cannot penetrate the energy formation of the Pyxi Star. It’s a positive energy barrier. Although the Time was stopped in place, it was not propelled by the wave.”

After hearing this suggestion, the silver-haired paladin nodded after thinking about it for a while: "You can try... but without the energy of the Pyx Star, who will support the defensive barrier? It consumes a lot of energy. We even the enemy's If you don’t know it, you can easily fall into the opponent's trap if you rashly weaken your own combat effectiveness."

"No matter who the enemy is, if you stop us here, you will definitely do something."

At this moment, a voice came from outside the cabin door, and Joshua opened the door. Behind him, Hei, Hill and Fina also entered in sequence. Although the soldier's voice was not loud, it could reach everyone's ears. "Since we are less than a day away from the Central Maelstrom, the enemy has made us lose motivation at this time. It must be to solve us in situ and prevent us from getting close to the abyss."

"Joshua." After seeing the soldier, Robzek nodded slightly, and he asked: "What do you think of the current situation?"

As the only strong player on this ark, Joshua's suggestion is very important. Facing the Paladin's inquiry, he was not polite, but directly made his own guess.

Just as Loranda guessed by the same side, the warrior pointed out that the true body of black dust originated from the crystal fragments of the evil **** of famine. The sea areas are all caught in a situation similar to a forbidden magic zone, any magic power will be quickly absorbed as soon as it appears.

This situation is exactly the same as the barren phenomenon in Karlis's world, and it is also very similar to the doomsday formed after the appearance of the evil **** of natural disasters in the Ilgna world that Loranda had visited.

"Our enemy should be the abyss demon, or the previous sea abyss dragon-like eroding sea beast... how can it be related to the evil **** of famine?"

After listening, Robzek frowned. He remembered the strange and powerful crystal monsters he encountered during the last exploration: "Well, if just like you, the enemy is the Cthulhu family, then what do we have to do? Method?"

He asked the soldiers sincerely.

Qiao Xiuya curled her lips slightly: "Wait."

Noting the puzzling eyes of everyone present, the soldier had to explain again: "After all, this is the mainland of Mycroft. The enemy cannot maintain this alien phenomenon all the time. It will be fighting until the opponent cannot maintain this state. Timing."

When he finished, he took a cup of tea from the table and drank it in one go. After drinking, Joshua asked with some doubts: "This taste...how is it different from the previous one?"

"This is the tea that Nono prepared for us. It is a specialty of her hometown... But it's that simple?"

Saya looked a little unbelievable, she murmured in surprise: "Is it all you need to wait?"

"No, it's not simple at all." At this time, it was Fina standing by the side who spoke. The human form is a sea dragon with a beautiful lady with long blue hair, shaking her head, and said with a heavy tone: "This is preying on some sea animals. The method is similar to first using traps or other means to make the prey unable to escape the movement, and then slowly dissipating the opponent’s power, until the end does not appear and kill the prey."

"Next, the other party will definitely use various methods to attenuate the power of the Ark, which is our group of people. After reaching a certain level, the enemy behind the scenes will show up and give us the final blow."

Although it was just a guess, Fina's law was in line with everyone's perception, and Joshua also nodded silently, which was exactly what he thought.

He stared at the light curtain, but Robzek's thinking was not concentrated on it. At this time, he was recalling the experience of the previous Ark approaching the central maelstrom.

It was the first time to explore the Abyss of Anos. Due to the impact of a large number of sea beasts, the Ark deviated from its course, and finally returned due to insufficient supplies.

During the second exploration, the cabin leaked due to accidental reef hitting and had to return.

During the third exploration, a large number of berserk flying dragons were attacked on the way. For three consecutive days of fighting, and the weather was too bad, 70% of the crew experienced extreme fatigue and physical discomfort and had no choice but to return to the voyage.

The fourth exploration, the closest to success, because the previous explorations killed a large number of sea beasts, and the crazy dragons had all gone to block the sky over the holy mountain, so the journey went smoothly, but it was about to approach Arnold. When the Maelstrom at the center of Sizhiyuan was attacked by three weird monsters whose strengths were close to his intentions, the Ark was almost sunk due to the accident, and Robzek and others fought against the monsters to protect the Ark. In the end, he relied on the self-destructed Holy Light Wheel to barely escape.

The fifth time, and this time, the exploration was very smooth along the way. With the addition of Earl Radcliffe, the sea abyss dragon, which was originally a big trouble, was also killed in less than half an hour. Beheading, even if they encounter those three weird monsters again, everyone will have the power to fight, but now this situation is beyond everyone's expectations.

"Are you going to fail again?"

Robzek murmured unwillingly, the decisive moment between the Church of the Seven Gods and the Five-Colored Dragon Race is about to come. At that time, if the mission of the Time is not completed, their actions will be very embarrassing, even Yige The Pope supported them to continue their exploration, and the church has no redundant resources.

What's more, the silver-haired paladin is not the kind of person who can safely explore the Abyss of Anos when the church is in trouble. Even if he will be blamed by the pope, he will return to the sacred mountain and fight against the mad dragon with his comrades. .

The fifth exploration was the last time for him. Even if the church repelled the five-color dragons, the holy mountain after the war would inevitably require a long period of repair and reconstruction. At that time, the exploration of the Abyss of Anos would undoubtedly be Shelve it indefinitely, and it will not be possible to restart until at least nearly ten years later.

Suddenly, outside the cabin, there was a disturbed scream from the crew not far away. The sound did not decrease with the passage of time. Instead, it became louder and more tense.

"There's a situation." Hill frowned. The one closest to the door immediately opened the door and walked towards the ark where the voice came: "I'll go and see."

Fina followed the elf boy, and Joshua also walked out the door with a look of expectation. Behind him, the three church members looked at each other, arranged their equipment, and walked out together.

Outside the cabin, on the deck of the Time.

Many crew members who were trying to'repair' the magic facilities were screaming and ran back to the cabin. Those who did not understand the magic did not know that the magic facilities stopped functioning only because the energy was sucked up, and they thought it was some structure. There was damage, as they were strictly selected, and they finally came to Time on board are undoubtedly full of courage, otherwise they would not brave the waves and rain to come out of the cabin to try to repair, but now, they are obviously Terrified.

Everyone passed through the panicked crew members and came to the deck. They quickly understood why the crew members were so frightened.

Amidst the rain curtain, the violent wind carried the huge waves and beat back and forth on the Holy Light Rune on the giant ship. The dark mist enveloped the entire giant ship, as if a cage imprisoned the immobile temple ark.

And in the black fog, there was a weird call, countless gray shadows galloping from the mist, and with the whistling through the air, the gray shadows revealed their true bodies. They were very thick and full of profit. Toothed tentacles, they broke through the fog and slapped the ark fiercely. As the magic circle on the top of the ark revolved, a piece of white hexagonal barriers accurately blocked each tentacles, making a dull collision sound. .

After these tentacles collided with the barrier, they immediately collapsed and turned into black dust, dissolving into the mist, and the white barrier immediately dimmed a lot, as if a lot of energy had been taken away.

"What the **** are these?"

Robzek jumped over the crowd~www.novelmtl.com~ He frowned, stretched out his hand, and a silver holy light shot from his fingertips, cutting off a tentacle, but just after the tentacle was severed, it immediately It collapsed into dust in the sky, there is no doubt that these shots are composed of crystal dust that can absorb magic.

Qiao Xiuya didn't recognize these things either. Although they were undoubtedly a kind of wild god, he was not an encyclopedia. How could he know this kind of enemy he had never seen before?

However, fighters have systems.
