Chapter 151: The Third Fusion of the Cursed Gun (4000 words, two chapters in one chapter)
The next day, the sky was clear and clear.
Roya left a note for Hal, telling him that classes were suspended today, and then headed to the harbor of this coastal town.
Although the town is remote, there are also cargo ships coming and going. The closer you go to the seaside, the more crowded and noisy it becomes.
As he approached the seaside, Roja walked into a busy commercial street.
Most of the people on both sides of the road are fishmongers and other merchants selling various seafood such as crabs, shrimps, octopus, and even seahorses.
Other products include magic stones, coconuts, cantaloupe, shells, pearls, fishing nets, fishing rods, paddles, rubber boots...
Although there are no too precious goods, they are as diverse as an inland country market.
Perhaps due to the open atmosphere, people of different races can be seen everywhere in the Southern Commonwealth, and here is naturally no exception.
Handsome elves, stocky dwarves, short little humans, muscular orcs, Flügels with wings on their backs... The clothing and appearance of various
races are very different, especially some orcs with obvious beast characteristics:
wearing a A wolf head, a lion head, a leopard head walking on the street, or a face covered with long black hair like hirsutism, making it difficult to see the appearance.
They were like some kind of monsters, walking in groups on the streets, speaking in a curse-like orcish dialect.
Compared with these strange alien races, Roya's outfit is not too conspicuous.
It is worth mentioning that no matter which race, most of the people here are ordinary people. Even warriors of Scar's level or formal mages are rare, and even those above the super level cannot be seen for a long time.
After passing through this commercial street full of "countryside atmosphere", Roya walked out of the gate under the city tower and came to the pier outside.
The area is not large, but it looks like a lot of money was spent on building and renovating it.
The flat ground is covered with square tiles, with a square column-shaped wooden fence around the edge, and fishing boats are docked on the shore.
White seabirds glided in the sky, and the turquoise waters rippled in the midday sun.
Behind Roja is a thick city wall with bunkers built on it and huge crossbows and artillery placed there.
These fortifications are not to defend against the armies of other countries, but to prevent attacks from powerful monsters in the sea.
Monsters are not only a threat to the residents of the town, but also the most valuable cargo.
It is said that some of them have been reproduced from generation to generation in ancient times, but some of them swam out through tunnels connected to the seabed and mazes.
What Roja is looking for are the undersea tunnels that can lead in and out of the maze.
"Narwhal! Hunting narwhal! There are still three people missing. Do you want to go to sea together..."
Some people are recruiting sailors at the dock. They are adventurers who go out to sea to hunt monsters. Many times, crew members need to be recruited temporarily.
Narwhal is a huge monster, but ordinary people can deal with it in sufficient numbers. Narwhal and whale oil are both valuable alchemical raw materials.
"Is there anyone? There is still one missing..."
Roja looked around and walked up to a strong man with short blond hair who was shouting.
The strong man looked at his strange attire and frowned, "Whale hunting is very dangerous. What I want is an experienced sailor. Who are you..." "Crash." A handful of silver coins appeared in
Roja
's hand. He said in a low voice: "Take me to the sea beast's lair."
The sea beast's lair is said to be the area where the undersea tunnel connected to the maze is located.
There is a terrifying whirlpool in that area, as well as a large number of large monsters. Unless it is a powerful fleet, it would not dare to go hunting.
"Going to the sea beast's lair..."
The blond man took the silver coin with both hands and said, "As agreed in advance, we have to hunt narwhals first, and then we can take you to that place when we return."
And we can only take you to that area. It's impossible to sail in, nor can we take you there. Will stay there too long. "
Looking at his appearance, this is not the first time he has met someone who has the same requirements as Roja.
"Okay. "Roya nodded.
In this vast sea, he would definitely not be able to find the specific location of the undersea tunnel, so he would have to find a local "guide."
As long as he reaches the destination, there is no need for these sailors to do anything. .
“Okay. The strong man accepted the silver coin, "Then I still have to ask, your name and identity?"
"Royal is just a traveler. " "
An hour later, he set off on a whaling ship named "White Pearl"...
The
ship was sailing on the calm sea, and the land could no longer be seen in the distance.
The sailors were cleaning the deck, On the high mast, there are sailors on the observation platform using binoculars to look for traces of prey.
"Mr. Roya, would you like some rum?" "The blond man came over, holding a wine bottle in his hand.
His name was Billy, and he was the boatswain of the "White Pearl".
Roya waved his hand and rejected Billy's kindness.
His eyes Looking to the side of the deck,
there was a young sailor there. What was striking was that he only had one leg.
Billy noticed his gaze and said casually:
"That boy's name is Silver. He's from out of town. He seemed to have it before." He was a scout of the mercenary group and had a broken leg. Captain Flint kindly took him in. "
Hey, the most interesting thing is that this kid likes to tell stories. He even said that he was once imprisoned and interrogated by a skeleton, hahaha..."
Billy laughed, seemingly amused.
"What I said is all the truth!"
the young one-legged sailor heard the voice and shouted to Billy:
"I was thrown into the cave by that terrible undead. I was cold, hungry, and even broke. One leg!
"Later, I climbed out while the skeleton knight was away, and walked out of the Undead Mountains with one leg with great difficulty. Finally, I fainted on the road and was brought here by a passing caravan... That undead was simply a devil. . "
Billy and several other sailors laughed, "You can rest assured, all the undead in the Undead Mountains have been eliminated by the Adventurer's Guild. "
The one-legged sailor said: "Other monsters may die, but the skeleton knight may still be alive. It behaves like a living person..." "
Hahaha, you can tell this as a bedtime story in the future. Grandson, shut up now and get to work quickly! "
Billy turned back, smiled at Roja and said,
"Look sir, he's always been like this. He likes to tell stories about skeleton knights, and everyone at the dock is tired of hearing them..."
Roja nodded. He was noncommittal about this.
He pointed to the bow of the ship and asked, "What kind of statue is this?" "
On the bow of the White Pearl, there is a figure carved from wood and painted with colored paint.
It is a slender skeleton man wearing a black robe with his hands crossed on his chest, a bit like Roya The classic image of the God of Death in previous movies and TV series.
Not only the White Pearl, Roya found many other ships at the dock also had this statue, like some kind of belief.
But no matter how you look at this thing, it is an undead, an undead monster.
" Sage, Fels. "
Billy replied: "Because he calmed the sea, he is also called the Sage of the Sea. "
"It looks strange, doesn't it? Because this is a very ancient sage, so his appearance is different from the later ones... He is not a monster, don't get confused." The ancient
sage of the sea... Roja Lost in thought.
He remembered that the metal doll in the Rubik's Cube of the building once said:
Long before the monsters in the underground labyrinth appeared, there were countless outstanding mages who transformed themselves into undead as a means of immortality... At this moment, the
observation The sailor on the stage shouted loudly: "Sixty degrees to the left, twelve nautical miles, a narwhal has been spotted!" Captain Flint immediately gave the order, "Turn the helm and catch up! Billy goes to measure the ship's speed! Others Get your harpoons and cannonballs ready!"
"Sir, there may be danger while hunting whales. You can take shelter in the cabin."
Billy said this to Roya, and then went to measure the speed of the ship.
The entire crew of the ship immediately moved to prepare whale hunting tools.
Narwhal?
Roja looked into the distance.
High in the sky above him, a seabird possessed by a young dragon spread its wings and looked ahead with sharp eyes.
You can see that on the sea in the distance, there is a huge monster hiding under the sea, swishing its tail from time to time to stir up white waves.
The Narwhal was so fast that the White Pearl spread all sails and caught up with it after two hours.
"Fire!"
Following the captain's order, shells were fired from the starboard side, hitting the narwhal at close range, exploding into pieces of blood.
The injured monster let out a loud roar, rolled around and created huge waves.
As a ferocious monster, it did not choose to escape after being injured like ordinary beasts, but immediately started to fight back.
Blue electric sparks began to flash on the slender and sharp horn, and countless tiny arcs were generated in the void.
"It's an elite monster!" The captain's face changed drastically, "Everyone bows their heads!"
"Crack!"
A blue lightning was released from the monster's horn and struck over the heads of the crew.
"Ahhh!" "Ouch!"
Even if they were not directly touched by lightning, many people had blackened blood holes on their bodies, and their whole bodies were paralyzed and it was difficult to move.
Elite monsters, or "elite monsters", are powerful individuals whose strength is higher than the average level of the race, up to one level higher.
The lightning released by ordinary narwhals can basically only be effective underwater, and its power is far less terrifying.
"Crack! Crack!"
A series of dazzling arcs of electricity passed over everyone's heads. Some people kept screaming and fell to the ground seriously injured.
Even Captain Flint, the only one whose strength reached the limit-breaking level, was unable to move after being struck by lightning.
The power of the lightning released by this narwhal is close to the level of the ability of advanced monsters.
"Ha!"
A young sailor suddenly shouted, threw the harpoon hard, and penetrated deeply into the narwhal's body.
However, the next second, densely packed slender arcs flashed in the void, immediately knocking him to the ground.
"Boom! Boom!"
The narwhal began to hit the hull. The sharp horn pierced several holes in the hull, and seawater began to pour into the cabin.
"Hurry up and fix the hole! Let's retreat!" Billy shouted as he turned the rudder.
If this continues, it's uncertain whether the ship can return...
In the cabin below, Roja stood up.
A sailor wanted to hand him the cork and cloth blanket, and shouted anxiously:
"Man! We don't have enough manpower! Help fill that big hole!"
The hole opened by the narwhal was flooding into the water crazily, and soon It has already reached the top of the feet.
But as long as it is blocked in time, this level of damage is not a big problem.
Roya ignored the sailor and walked out of the cabin.
"Sir, be careful of lightning!"
Captain Flint warned loudly after seeing Roja.
"Crack! Crack!"
A series of dazzling blue arcs shot out from the narwhal's head and swept over, scaring everyone else to the point where they all fell down!
However, these arcs disappeared directly one meter away from Roja, as if they were offset by something invisible.
——Even without armor, Roja's own magic resistance is enough to ignore this monster's lightning attack.
Then, under the surprised eyes of others,
he walked to the bow of the ship, picked up a harpoon on the ground, and threw it towards the narwhal!
"Buzz!"
The steel fork turned into an afterimage under the huge force and disappeared into the narwhal's body in an instant.
"Ang——"
The giant beast made a harsh cry, flipping its body violently like a fish out of water, causing waves of huge waves.
"Oh!" "Oh my God!"
The huge waves shook the hull again, and
the crew members screamed. They fell to the ground as soon as they stood up, and they could only hold on to things around them.
Two minutes later, the narwhal finally stopped moving completely.
The waves calmed down, and the huge corpse floated quietly on the sea. The surrounding water was stained red by the blood flowing out.
"It's dead!" "We survived!"
All the crew members, including the captain and Billy, looked at Roja with gratitude and awe...
"
Sir, thank you very much!"
Flint and Billy Li knelt down on one knee in front of Roja, bowed deeply, and performed a ritual that seemed to be an interview with a high-ranking noble.
Of course they have to thank Roja very much.
Not only did he kill the narwhal, but he also lent them the healing staff to heal the injured crew members.
If Roja hadn't taken action, it's hard to say whether they would have been able to escape in the end. At least a few people would have died and a dozen others would have been seriously injured and disabled.
Flint said to Roja: "If there is anything we need to do, please give us your orders."
Roja glanced at them, "Then quickly go to the sea beast's lair."
"Yes, we will rush there at full speed."
After the two left, Roja continued to look at the narwhal magic stone in his hand.
This is an oval stone that is about the size of a human head and emits a dazzling blue light. If you get closer, you can hear the subtle sound of air ionization.
Except for Chrissy's red lightning spell, this seemed to be the first time he saw a monster that could use the power of lightning.
