The newly-appeared sea beast has dark blue head scales and thicker gray scales that appear to be wrapped in two layers. This makes the shorter sea beast look smaller than the sea beast being devoured by ratmen. Even bigger.
Its tail, which was completely covered by black scales, raised huge waves on the sea behind it, which chilled the hearts of the engineering warlocks who could see its appearance clearly.
"This is not going to be easy."
The captains around him didn't seem to be panicking yet.
Of course.
Eski looked up and saw that he was the same. Although this black-haired rat man was stronger than the brown-haired clan rat, their strength was the same.
Ordinary ratmen can only vaguely see the situation in the distance and judge the existing situation through experience. As compensation, the ratmen have gained good night vision.
Therefore, in Captain Aikeqi's eyes, he probably only vaguely saw a new sea beast appearing, but he did not see the sea beast's thicker scales and more powerful tail like he did.
Moreover, if there was a second head, Esky looked at the increasingly turbulent sea around him and had an even worse premonition.
"Captain, no, Ekchi. It's for this sea beast."
The engineer warlock considered his words and said.
The black-haired rat just glanced at him, then at the sea beast, and then ordered the clan rats under him:
"Kill some more slave rats and connect the ballista over there."
Being a mage is a god, right?
The engineering warlock couldn't help but curse secretly in his heart and spoke again.
"It's useless. It's impossible for this ship to lock up two sea beasts. They are enough to tear the ship apart."
Captain Heimao did not speak, but the engineering warlock followed Ekeqi's changing gaze and saw what he was looking at - the paddle wheels of more assault ships were bringing up rolling waves, which were still gathering here.
I really can't see the situation clearly.
Come here together now and be torn apart by sea beasts together?
Since the power plant of traditional Skaven ships is located on the outside of the ship, it is extremely easy to be damaged.
Not to mention the hulls, which were crudely built for momentum.
The uneasy engineering warlock jumped the magnification speed of the observer to the limit, and observed the sea surface again, and Esky discovered a fact that horrified him.
More than ten kilometers away, there were more black shadows approaching.
It forms a circle exactly in the shape of a ring.
"Captain, discard the chain arrows, we need to leave the fleet immediately and run."
cried the engineering warlock.
"What?"
Without any time to explain, the white-haired rat man sprinted toward the stern of the ship and floated a sentence in the air without any regard for dignity.
"I'm going back to my room first, it will take some time for them to come over."
When he returned to the room, Mobrier had no idea when he had left the cell specially prepared for it on the ground floor. When Esky left the room for the second time just now, he ordered the scurvy person to throw it away. Got in.
That was just a precaution to prevent him from being corrupted again and ruining the Engineer Warlock's plans.
But now, he appeared in front of the door, trying to crack the new lock on the door.
The engineering warlock grabbed the fur on his chest, threw it away, and controlled it outside the door.
Eski, who rushed back to the room, ignored the elf with a strangely excited look in his eyes and quickly began to open the nine volumes of Tzeentch and look through the table of contents.
Perhaps it was necessary to ensure that each book had 990 pages, and the table of contents was not universal among the nine books. After wasting several minutes, the engineering warlock found something related.
"Complex Usage of Magical Winds, Volume 9, Page 99."
Both the book and the page numbers are very bad.
Fuck me, right?
Just watch.
Gritting his teeth and turning the pages of the book, the engineering warlock bit the bullet and read on.
Blue light shines from every word on the page. It is not simply Anoquayan's words, but something more complex.
The meaning of the words entered the brain through vision, and more information seemed to be imprinted, giving the brain a strange feeling.
Both his spine and brain felt strange, but the engineer warlock had to admit that he understood this knowledge in a very short time.
That’s interesting, is this a change too?
No, this is Tzeentch's idea... Has it begun to corrode?
I can rely on my will... Archaon can do it, so can I...
The engineer warlock kept thinking silently in his heart.
Opening the door, there was already chaos outside. Apparently, the rat men on the boat should have discovered more sea beasts.
Speaking of the clerk, the engineer warlock ran to the hatch closest to the captain, preparing to enter the bottom cabin from here.
"Why haven't you ditched the chain arrows yet? We need to get this ship moving."
The white-haired rat asked the black-haired rat loudly, "Does this bastard not want to continue living?" .
"Brandy won't let us go, and it's not that we can't fight. Behind us are the Stormrat Camp transport ships from Skaven Mordor, and other support, totaling more than 10,000 people, as well as the Gray Prophet! We can win!"
Captain Black Hair's attitude suddenly became extremely resolute at this time, which made Eski wonder if he was a rat man.
"The fleet of pointy-eared things can drive sea beasts and sea monsters. No matter how you captured this ship, I don't believe that Storm Rats can defeat the fleet of pointy-eared things."
As he spoke, the engineering warlock lifted the brown rat man and threw it into the entrance below, and then said.
"You think about it slowly, the clerk and I will activate the runes in the power cabin."
The dim cabin is now almost completely dark. If it weren't for the rat man's good night vision, he might not be able to see anything.
The lower level is a complete gun deck with a fully connected cabin, and a ballista is placed on each gun port, and their matching ammunition is placed on the rack between the gun ports.
Perhaps because the elves did not need so many crew members, according to human habits, the hammock that should have been placed above the gun muzzle was turned into an arrow rack.
Among those ammunition, there must be special attacks on sea beasts, but the engineer warlock does not intend to launch an attack on the sea beasts unless it threatens the engineer warlock's escape plan.
Quickly passing through the darker stairways of the two decks below, Eski threw the scribe to the bottom of the ship, which was illuminated only by glowing runes.
"It is very difficult for mortals to control the wind of magic, even if the Lord of Change's book contains instructions for using it."
"but."
Esky's eyes glanced at the new thing that appeared on Mobrier's panel.
Characteristics: Proficient in spellcasting, talented mage.
Slaanesh is really generous, but according to the Engineer Warlock's understanding of that one, all this must come at a price.
Lowering his head and touching the shoulder of the scribe whose eyes were still green and purple, the engineering warlock approached him and said.
"You are infected by the magic power of the Dark Prince and the Horned Supreme. You should be able to use it."
"I feel like you have been given something."
Saying half-truths, the engineer warlock felt something strange on his back again, and thought that the rat people were originally semi-chaos. If too much chaos power is invested, will they turn into chaos eggs?
What an interesting question.
