Sound travels very quickly in seawater and attenuates much less than it does in air.
In order to ensure that the sonic machine spirit's noise attack would not accidentally injure himself, the others, and the magic yacht, Li Nuo adjusted the firing direction of the high-pitched array so that it fired 30 degrees to the front.
"Boom..." A slight knocking sound came from a certain part of the ship's hull, which was in sharp contrast to the silent cabin.
Li Nuo looked towards the direction where the sound came from. It was a siren tapping on the outer armor plate of the yacht, testing the reality of invisible things.
At the place where their companions disappeared, an invisible object was found floating in the sea water. This was enough for the Sirens to connect the object with the missing undertide spy.
Li Nuo wrote a few lines in his diary and showed it to Hedwig:
"You throw my dozen metal balls overboard, and you have to do it quickly."
Hedwig nodded and extended his right hand to the metal ball on the table.
His palm turned into transparent liquid, extending out a dozen tributaries, rolling up the metal sphere.
Hedwig moved to the control room and sent the metal ball into the ventilation duct on the wall with his liquid palm.
Li Nuo activated the "Psychic Beacon" placed on the sonic mechanical spirit.
15 sonic mechanical spirits correspond to 15 beacons.
In Li Nuo's perception, they passed through the pipes inside the hull, arrived at the external armor plate just below the hull, and left the hull from the pipe mouth there.
Li Nuo did not intend to waste time with the seven sea monsters outside the ship.
As long as passive deconstruction is triggered, he can find the information he wants from the opponent's panel information and memory fragments. There is no need to capture the opponent alive and torture the information.
Li Nuo activated 15 sonic mechanical spirits at the same time.
The mechanical spirit split open in the water, exposing the high-pitched sound array and the temporarily installed water flow array inside.
Driven by the short and rapid water flow, the mechanical spirit rushed towards the stunned sea monster with agility, and before the other party could react, it erupted with a loud and head-scratching noise.
“Beep————————!”
The seven sea monsters were startled by the sudden noise, and their bodies trembled uniformly.
Immediately afterwards…
"Bang~"
"Bang~"
"Bang~"
A series of bloody and bloody heads shattered, and all the sea monsters were forced out of their invisible state.
They appeared in the dark water and became headless corpses spraying blood and bone fragments.
"Yeah! Yeah! (So awesome! The bad guys are all dead!)"
Weipa's ability to perceive the seawater environment was the strongest among the three people present, and she immediately let out an exclamation.
Hedwig's reaction was a little slow, and he quickly sensed the sudden death of life from the swirling sea water and the chaos of deep sea magic.
"Okay, done." Li Nuo nodded slowly and said to Hedwig:
"Let's set sail, Hedwig. We will head to the Suman Islands tonight. We will rest after we leave the current sea area."
Hedwig came back to his senses:
"No problem, leave the sailing to me."
Hedwig put away his wand and walked quickly to the control room.
Li Nuo looked at the soul fragments on the Kraken's corpse in the magical vision of "Life and Death Tracking".
The amount of debris is not much, 50 to 100 points per tool.
Considering the time constraints and the fact that his "soul absorption" was a bit unusual, Li Nuo suppressed the idea of collecting soul fragments.
About 10 seconds later, a low engine roar came from the middle deck.
The magic engine changes from dormant state to operating state, delivering water energy to the water spray array.
After the magic yacht started moving, the invisibility state was released, and it sailed towards the sea in an upward direction.
The hull emerged from the sea, and the external armor plates covering the portholes were retracted into the hull mezzanine.
Li Nuo saw the stars and the sea.
The magic yacht turned around and accelerated towards the northwest.
Weipa looked hesitant to speak in Li Nuo's room. From time to time, she glanced at the light red magic formation lines on the back of Li Nuo's left hand. She was obviously very curious about the metal ball that made a sharp noise just now.
"Yeah, yeah, yeah... Yeah? (It's so strange, there's nothing strange about that sound... But why can it kill those sea monsters?)"
Li Nuo faced the little pink mermaid who looked like a curious baby. He shook his hand mysteriously and wrote a line:
"This is the wizard's secret."
Weipa opened her mouth and said, "Aww... (Oh, I won't ask anymore.)"
She shrank into the sea shell, and was carried out of the room by the sea shell, returning to her guest room.
Li Nuo used "Life and Death Tracking" and "Psychic Vision" to check the situation above and below the water. Seeing that no more sea monsters appeared, he called up the results of the previous decomposition and took a closer look.
The energy value reward is not worth mentioning, and it is completely incomparable with the current energy value reserve.
The panel information of the Tide Hunter is similar to that of the Undertide Spy.
Both of these are human Terror Sailing Wizards.
These people are all sea patrol wizards of the Chanal family.
Because they have practiced the "Deep Sea Scale" meditation method, they can freely switch between human form and sea monster form.
The difference between the two is that Undertide Spies are better at sneaking in, while Tide Hunters focus on tracking.
Judging from the content of the meditation method that Li Nuo learned, when the level of the meditation method reaches level 120, the form of the siren will differentiate.
There are three directions of differentiation.
The first is to maintain the original form, the second is to become an undertide spy, and the third is to become a surge hunter.
When the meditation method reaches a higher level, there should be new differentiation routes.
The specific situation is unknown to Li Nuo at this time. After all, the "Deep Sea Scale" meditation method in his hand can only be practiced to level 149.
Li Nuo recalled the memory fragments of the seven sea monsters.
Since passive deconstruction will automatically apply harmless deconstruction, most memory fragments have been "harmonized" by the system because they contain bloody content or mental pollution.
There is a memory fragment that appears in every deconstruction result of the Dreadsail Wizard.
Its content is crucial.
…
[Memory Name] An important instruction book from Elder Darkscale
【Type】Memory fragment
【Completeness】100%
【abstract】
After receiving the urgent message from Shenyu Island, as the elder of Dark Scales, I give you important instructions:
The Supreme Queen Estano will hold a grand celebration in three months.
We need to prepare enough sacrifices to meet the requirements of the celebration ceremony.
Sacrifice can be the following extraordinary creatures:
1. Powerful demonized sea beast
2.The young sea giant
3. Magical and young wizard, female only
4. The shark, which is rich in magical power and has tender meat, is also only for women.
5. Magic stones, minerals and underwater plants rich in magic power
All Dreadsail wizards who receive this order must hand in at least three sacrifices within three months.
Otherwise, I will offer you as a sacrifice to the Queen.
(Omit various PUA words)
…
This instruction sheet does not exist in the memory fragments of the undercurrent spy killed by Li Nuo during the day.
The order book should have been sent to the Kraken this afternoon.
In other words, three months from today, many maritime attacks will occur.
Considering that the words "rich in magic power" and "fresh and tender meat" are mentioned in the instruction book, in all fleets or human strongholds attacked by the Kraken, people who meet the conditions for sacrifice will be captured alive, and those who do not meet the conditions for sacrifice will be captured alive. The tragic scene of being massacred on the spot.
After Li Nuo discovered this instruction letter, he wrote an urgent letter to Selina without hesitation.
In this letter, Li Nuo roughly recounted the contents of the instruction letter and asked the other party whether such a situation had occurred before and how she dealt with it.
In the process of writing the letter, Li Nuo mentioned "celebration" and "sacrifice", but did not mention the words "Elder Darkscale" and "Queen Estano".
Because he didn’t quite know the meaning behind these terms, and he hadn’t seen them in Selena’s memory.
Come to think of it, the words "elder" and "queen" should involve the secrets of the Kraken group.
After the letter was written, Li Nuo blew the whistle to call the messenger.
The snow-winged cat with pure white wings appeared out of thin air on the desk. Li Nuo picked it up, took a few breaths, and asked about Dinas' condition.
The Snowwing cat rubbed Li Nuo's chin and said "meow~" softly like a clip cat, as if to say that everything was fine at home.
Li Nuo wrote another impromptu letter to Dinas, telling her that his plans to go to sea had changed and that he would arrive in the Suman Islands in the near future.
Putting the letter into the letter bag, he took out a handful of delicious cat food to reward the Snowwing cat. Li Nuo watched the Snowwing cat, who looked satisfied after eating the cat food, escape into the "Messenger Plane".
He sat at the desk and waited for about three minutes, and as expected, received a reply from Selina.
The content of the reply made Li Nuo frown slightly.
"Jarvis, I received your letter. Maybe you don't know yet, but starting from about three o'clock this afternoon, I have received urgent calls from fleets, trading companies, offshore operating platforms, and offshore magic farms. News. They were all attacked by Kraken. As of now, a total of twenty maritime strongholds or fleets far away from land have been attacked.
"The Kraken's massive plundering for so-called celebrations used to happen every one to three years. The last time it happened was two and a half years ago, directly disrupting the trade routes between the Suman Islands and various continents. It was closed for half a year.
“I hope we can get through it safely this time.
"Thank you for the information. - Red Face Selena:)"
Li Nuo read from beginning to end, and his lips twitched when he saw the playful content at the end...
The good news is that the Deep Sea Branch has experience in dealing with such situations.
The bad news is that there is a gap of two and a half years between this celebration and the last one. The Kraken is likely to have a big event, which will cause misfortune to many people.
Maybe, the ocean trade routes will be closed for another half a year.
Li Nuo's mind was flooded with thoughts, and many ideas for fishing in troubled waters emerged.
"I might have to use the "Forgetting Potion" to wash it off. "
Li Nuo reached into his magic pocket and held a glass bottle with a narrow mouth and a long neck.
This is the forgetfulness potion he bought from Professor Erica, which can reset a certain skill from level 100 to level 1.
After "Psychic Beacon" is transformed into "Psychic Tracking", Li Nuo can ignore distance restrictions and remotely control thunder clouds.
This would allow him to sit at home in the Suman Islands and smite Kraken and Dreadsail Wizards hundreds of kilometers away.
The premise is that Leiyun's lightning energy supply must keep up, and the work of salvaging special mechanical spirits to recover loot and soul fragments must also keep up.
"The amount of work seems to be quite large. I have to specially design and manufacture a special machine spirit for salvage with large capacity, long endurance and high speed..."
Li Nuo was thinking about a plan to improve the mechanical spirit when he heard Hedwig's voice coming from the metal pipe on the table:
"Hey, hey, Jarvis, can you hear me?"
This metal pipe is the sound transmission device between cabins.
Li Nuo approached the mouth of the pipe and said:
"What's the matter, Hedwig?"
"It's like this. A magic mechanical ship of the Chanal family appeared on our route. The other party gave me a signal through the magic light and asked us to stop the ship for inspection."
Hedwig paused:
"I guess it's a routine check or something. I've encountered it many times before, so it won't take too long."
"Wait a minute, I'll go to the control room to find you."
Li Nuo stood up, walked gently through Weipa's guest room, and came to the control room where Hedwig was.
At this time, Hedwig was using his magic lens to observe the ship in the far distance.
It was a brightly lit magical mechanical ship that constantly flashed light spots of various colors. Its displacement was far greater than the magical yacht that he and others were riding on, and it also had its own extremely fast magical speedboat.
Due to the fog threshold, any speeding behavior on the sea is unwise. This will be regarded as a provocation by the Chanal family's maritime patrol vessel and sunk on the spot.
Faced with this scenario of using a magic lamp to order one's own ship to stop and wait for inspection, it is a wise choice to turn the magic engine into a dormant state.
Li Nuo took out his telescope and looked at the emblem and number on the magical mechanical ship, with a slight curve in his mouth.
When he was reading the memory fragments of the Siren, he discovered traces of the ship, and had already expected that the other party would intercept his and others' magic yacht on the sea.
The reason is simply that the captain of the magical mechanical ship is a high-level undercurrent spy placed in the Chanal family by the Dreadsail Pirate Kingdom.
This person's name is Parika, and he is apparently a deep-sea combat wizard who graduated from the deep-sea branch. He has sixth-ring strength.
But in fact, while he works part-time as a deep-sea wizard, he is also a six-ringed terror sail wizard, a genuine high-level undercurrent spy.
His superior was none other than the Undertide Elder, the person or siren who issued the order to plunder the sacrifices.
——Considering that the Terror Sail Wizard, who is an Undertide spy, is the minion of the Kraken to spy on the Suman Islands, the possibility that the Elder of the Undertide is the Kraken is very high.
Parika is both a sixth-ring deep sea combat wizard and a sixth-ring terrifying sail wizard. He is definitely extremely talented and has rich combat experience.
He must be the best among fighting wizards of his age.
Li Nuo was very curious as to how virtuous and capable that Undercurrent elder was, so that he could take such a person under his command.
But regardless of admiration or curiosity, Li Nuo didn't intend to spare the other party's life.
"Hedway, stop the boat."
As Li Nuo said this, he took out a brand new loose-leaf book from his magic pocket.
Hedwig used the liquid palm to adjust the magic engine, glanced at Li Nuo's loose-leaf book, and immediately entered a sluggish state:
"This, this, this... what is this? Jarvis. Am I right? In such a large loose-leaf book that can be disassembled at any time, every page is an application for a life-or-death duel?!"
"Yeah, is it weird?" Li Nuo smiled lightly:
"As a first-level wizard who can challenge anyone to a life-and-death duel, I carry a loose-leaf book full of applications with me. Is it reasonable? What's all the fuss about? Ah, of course, I can't challenge a wizard apprentice to a life-or-death duel. Dueling, their level is lower than mine."
Hedwig was stunned for a while:
"Well, it's true that you can challenge people who are not wizard apprentices to a life-or-death duel. But why are you taking this thing out now?"
Li Nuo chuckled:
"What else can I do? Of course, I'll fight whoever is unhappy."
On that magical mechanical ship, there were not only Parika, a high-level undercurrent spy, but also many suspicious characters.
Li Nuo was not going to let anyone go.
