Doomsday Drifting Begins with Shipbuilding

Chapter 261 Xuanbao, don't be afraid

At this time, Chen Xuan was holding the steering wheel with both hands, concentrating on observing the situation ahead through the windshield in front of him.

Although he could have used the "artificial intelligence module" for automatic driving, he still chose to go into battle because he was worried.

It has been nearly 6 hours since the "Kunpeng" dived into the ocean.

During this period, he had come to the bottom of the sea and saw the ruins of the former city.

With the city as a reference, he found a former river bed and drove along the river bed all the way to the former trench.

At the beginning of the dive, there was always darkness in the field of vision.

Although the "Kunpeng" was equipped with a searchlight, Chen Xuan did not turn it on in order not to attract the attention of other creatures.

Anyway, there is a built-in scan map of the surrounding environment on the ship, and he can use mental detection at any time.

On the way, many huge sea beasts passed by the "Kunpeng".

Not only the giant octopuses, giant sharks, and mosasaurs that Chen Xuan had seen before, but also giant squids, giant sea turtles, and many creatures that he couldn't name.

The sea beasts in the depths of the ocean are at least twice the size of those seen on the surface of the sea before.

He couldn't help but think that if he had met such a creature when he was advanced in the "Kunpeng", he would be in big trouble.

Occasionally, he would see two sea beasts fighting.

Since it is in the depths of the ocean, the movement of the battle will not be as loud as it is on the surface of the sea.

But seeing the brutality of the battle, and the victor ruthlessly tearing apart and devouring the loser.

Chen Xuan's scalp was still slightly numb.

He was afraid of being noticed by some giant sea beast accidentally.

Although the "Kunpeng" appears to be invincible on the sea, but in the deep sea, it is better to be careful.

However, I don't know if it's because he didn't turn on the lights, or the "Kunpeng" itself has the ability to disguise.

The sea beasts never noticed him.

Once, a giant shark passed by the "Kunpeng", but it didn't attack the "Kunpeng".

Another time, a tentacle of a giant octopus was already attached to the windshield, which frightened Chen Xuan and held his breath.

But this octopus actually just used the "Kunpeng" as a pedal. With a push of its tentacles, its entire body swam far away.

Chen Xuan was left panting in the driver's seat alone.

After coming down a few times, he felt that the "Kunpeng" seemed to be an inanimate object in the eyes of these creatures.

Just when he was thinking, a voice interrupted his thinking.

"Pay attention, follow this direction, and after a while, you will see a grand canyon. Entering from the canyon is the Sea of ​​Silence."

"The Silent Sea is the last pass into the bottom of the sea, where there is a gap that can lead to the bottom."

The ultra-ancient conscious body popped up and showed Chen Xuan the way.

Not long after, he indeed felt a canyon in his consciousness.

This canyon in the sea is like a huge mouth opened by the earth.

And as he gradually dived, some luminescent creatures slowly appeared.

There is a strange plant that looks like a big red lantern.

A strange black fish with a slender body that continuously emits light at a certain frequency.

The whole body is filled with dreamy blue light, and it is a large and translucent ray.

And other weird creatures like that.

In such a dim abyss, these creatures stand out like fireflies, and some of them look like flying ghosts.

Gradually, the number of creatures became less, especially those giant creatures that hadn't been seen for a long time.

There are more and more plants that can emit light, which makes the sea water brighter and brighter.

Everything is so clearly visible.

It was only then that Chen Xuan realized that the surrounding sea water had changed a different color since he did not know when.

It changed from the original light blue to a light green, and these light green sea water seemed to be covered with a light mist, which seemed to be due to the mixing of sea water with different components.

He felt as if he had entered a green hot spring filled with mist.

Chen Xuan felt terrified watching this scene.

Presumably, this is the silent sea area mentioned by the ultra-ancient consciousness body. I don’t know if there is anything special about it.

Just as Chen Xuan was focusing on checking the situation in the silent sea area.

Suddenly, a voice rang in the ear.

"The scarlet gun has been optimized for the first time, adding effect [-]: scarlet! Effect [-]: burning blood!"

Um?The long spear he forged with scarlet gold was finally optimized.

Previously, because he was afraid that the light released by the scarlet gun during the optimization process would attract the attention of marine life, the scarlet gun had been kept in the sealed room behind the cab.

Chen Xuan thought, and a blood-red spear appeared on the floor.

He bent down and reached for it, picking it up.

It's so heavy. After all, this scarlet gun is made of pure metal. When you hold it in your hand, it feels like it weighs more than 100 kilograms.

This is simply raising a person!

Chen Xuan took a closer look at the scarlet gun in his hand.

After the optimization of the scarlet gun, the structure of the entire long gun has become more mature and refined.

The scarlet gun head is flat, with sharp edges, shining blood-red light that looks full of lethality.

And going down, the original gray metal gun handle became darker, and at this time it was actually a little red.

In addition, there are many twisted black and red lines on the surface of the gun body.

These black and red lines are like blood vessels growing on the scarlet gun, making the entire scarlet gun look even more ferocious and weird.

If it wasn't for the fact that it was a gun he made himself, Chen Xuan really wouldn't dare to use it.

The scarlet gun and electric yak leather armor are both items optimized by the red level, and they also have two effects.

They are "Scarlet" and "Burning Blood".

(Scarlet: Due to the characteristics of scarlet fine gold, weapons made of this metal also have the ability to absorb the essence of flesh and blood. When the scarlet gun comes into contact with flesh and blood, it will absorb the ability and make itself continue to grow.)”

(Burning blood: using the user's blood as a guide, it can release the blood energy stored in the scarlet gun, allowing the user to enter a berserk state, greatly improving the combat ability until the blood energy is exhausted. After use, blood needs to be replenished again energy, and it needs to cool down for 24 hours before it can be used again.)
"Scarlet" is a passive effect. The existence of this effect gives the Scarlet Gun the ability to grow, as if it has life.

Only this one effect is different from all the weapons Chen Xuan made before.

Any weapon will inevitably be eliminated as time goes by, but the blade of the Scarlet Spear will only become sharper and sharper as time goes by.

And "burning blood" is an active effect.

There is nothing to say about being able to enhance combat effectiveness, this is a very strong effect.

But using his own blood as a guide made him think of life-burning medicine.

The two seem to be somewhat similar.

But now that he has the "self-help medical module", he is no longer afraid of the backlash of the life-burning medicine, so he doesn't have to worry too much about the side effects.

With the scarlet gun and the electric yak leather armor, Chen Xuan felt like he was a humanoid ferocious beast.

"Strength of the Bull" is paired with "Burning Life", the effect is brutal even if you think about it.

After seeing the scarlet gun, Chen Xuan put it away, and once again concentrated on driving the "Kunpeng" through the silent sea area, looking for cracks that could lead to deeper depths.

I don't know how long the voyage was, but suddenly, Chen Xuan heard a roar.

In this quiet sea area, such a sound is undoubtedly equivalent to a stone stirring up a thousand waves.

He quickly stretched out the periscope and looked around.

I saw a long blue figure constantly wandering in the distance.

In such a deep sea world full of green, the blue shadow looks like a burning will-o'-the-wisp from a distance.

Gradually, the blue shadow kept approaching Chen Xuan.

Even so, he had no worries because of the "Kunpeng" as cover.

And when the shadow came close, he finally saw the specific appearance of this creature.

This is a blue creature, its body is translucent, its body is like a boa constrictor, its length is estimated to be nearly [-] meters, and it is smaller than the poisonous boa constrictor.

But the structure of the head is different from that of a snake. It looks like a demon with two horns, and a pink brain that is wriggling can be vaguely seen.

I haven't seen such a big creature in the silent sea for a long time. What is it?
"Huh? It's the ghost flood dragon. Damn it, how could I meet this creature? This is a troublesome time."

At this moment, the ultra-ancient consciousness body suddenly appeared, but the tone was unusually uneasy.

"Is there anything wrong with this creature?" Chen Xuan hurriedly asked.

"The ghost dragon is extremely sensitive to mental fluctuations. Although your vehicle can isolate life fluctuations and will not be detected by ordinary creatures, it cannot prevent the ghost dragon's perception."

"Then let's fight, there is only one creature anyway."

Chen Xuan didn't think so. He had confidence in the "Kunpeng" when it came to going it alone.

"It's not that simple. Remember the brain squid you met outside the experimental base?"

"It's that weird guy with a brain on his head and a squid on his lower body? What's wrong with it?"

Chen Xuan immediately thought of that strange creature, which turned out to be called a brain squid.

This guy was able to control objects and space transformations with his thoughts, which really surprised him at first.

The super-ancient consciousness suddenly mentioned his brain at this time, which made Chen Xuan feel a little bad.

"Yes, in fact, its ability to control objects and transform space with its mind is derived from the ghost dragon."

"What did you say?!"

Chen Xuan's temples twitched violently, and his expression changed instantly.

Ghost Jiao can also mind control objects and space transformation?

If that's the case, doesn't that mean...

This thought had just arisen in his mind, and the next second, the scene in front of him made Chen Xuan hold his breath.

Through the windshield ahead, I could see a pair of huge red eyes staring at him several hundred meters away.

At the same time, a special energy wave surged towards him.

Immediately afterwards, the scene in front of Chen Xuan changed.

The cockpit slowly changed from a technological sense to a piece of green sea water.

All of a sudden, he was dragged outside from the "Kunpeng"!

it is as expected!
Chen Xuan screamed in his heart: Damn it.

Without the protection of the "Kunpeng", he only felt the pressure of the sea water around him hit him in an instant, and his chest seemed to be pressed against a mountain all of a sudden.

Accompanied by severe pain, the internal organs seemed to be squeezed out.

Chen Xuan hastily activated the "personal diving module", and only then did he feel the pressure on his body disappear instantly.

Water pressure isn't his biggest problem at the moment, though.

After being dragged out of the cabin, he was just behind the Ghost Jiao.

So close that every joint on it is clearly visible.

But the current position is still hundreds of meters away from the "Kunpeng", and it is simply unrealistic to return to the ship.

And the ghost Jiao's body was moving to the distance at high speed, and then it circled, turned around, let out a piercing howl, and flew towards him.

Although he hadn't had direct contact yet, Chen Xuan already felt that he was under an inexplicable mental pressure all the time.

He couldn't help but condensed a layer of psionic shield outside his body.

White light flashed, and the iron-armed bow appeared in Chen Xuan's hand, and blue-black electric yak leather armor also appeared on his body.

At the same time, the "underwater propulsion module" is also activated.

Facing the Phantom Jiao that was about to charge, Chen Xuan was directly served by two arrows that condensed his spiritual will.

Due to the blessing of the iron arm bow, even though it is in the water, it also shows that it is not weaker than the javelin.

However, the arrow suddenly disappeared while flying, and the next second it appeared directly in front of Chen Xuan, and the arrow had been turned to shoot towards him.

The Phantom Jiao once again used its ability to transform space, causing Chen Xuan to suffer a backlash.

However, following a burst of electric arcs, the two thick and long black-feathered arrows were directly incinerated into ashes by the electricity on the electric yak leather armor.

Chen Xuan's face became serious for a while.

Due to the ability of the Ghost Jiao, he completely lost the means of long-range strikes.

Now there is only hand-to-hand combat.

With a wave of his hand, he put away the iron arm bow and replaced it with a scarlet spear.

Just try the power of this new gun.

Chen Xuan was gearing up and was about to let the scarlet gun drink blood, but suddenly, the scene in front of him changed.

At the same time, he only felt a strong impact on his back. This was not an ordinary impact, but an impact formed by the concentration of mental strength.

Not only did his body feel the impact, but Chen Xuan also felt as if his psychic shield had been hit by a hammer and loosened a bit.

The Phantom Jiao let out a piercing roar from behind, and it actually used its mind to shift Chen Xuan to its attacking position.

But it's a start.

Before Chen Xuan could stabilize, the scene around him changed again.

He was hit again.

Again and again, crashes appear one after another.

Often when there is no preparation, the attack of the ghost flood dragon will suddenly appear behind him.

"The ghost dragon uses its head to concentrate its mental power to attack. You have to be careful about its head."

The voice of the super ancient consciousness sounded in his mind.

"Be careful, how do you tell me to be careful? I can't even move."

Chen Xuan wanted to curse in his heart.

The continuous collision made him feel like a spinning top being whipped.

There seems to be no interval between the control of the Ghost Jiao, and it can be released once in less than a few seconds.

And because the attack of the Phantom Jiao is formed by the concentration of spirit, the passive defense effect of the electric yak leather armor cannot be triggered.

He wanted to use the scarlet spear to attack from behind, but he couldn't touch the ghost flood dragon's body at all.

The "Flame Spray Module" didn't even start at all.

In fact, just to maintain the psychic shield, he has already exhausted all his strength.

For the first time, he felt so passive.

After being attacked by the ghost dragon again, Chen Xuan became more and more anxious, but there was still nothing he could do.

How can he get out of this passive situation?
Moreover, he felt that his psychic shield was about to be unable to hold on.

Once the shield is broken, he may be directly wiped out by the ghost dragon spirit.

What he didn't notice was that the sea current in the distance was a little bit disturbed at this time.

The scene in front of him changed again, which meant that the attack of the Phantom Jiao was coming again.

After this, he will really die.

Chen Xuan's heart sank to the bottom.

However, at this moment, he suddenly felt that one of his arms was being pulled by something.

A huge force came from above, and his whole body was violently driven.

The roaring Phantom Jiao just brushed his scalp and whizzed past.

What saved him?
Chen Xuan looked down at the thing on his arm, which was a light blue tentacle.

At this time, a voice came from my mind.

"Xuan Bao, don't be afraid."
