My Magic Age

Chapter 978 79. The cost of hunting at sea

The Faceless Warrior who was split in half by the Minotaur Luka was twitching all over, but he did not die immediately. One of his tentacles with the lower limbs kept wriggling and fled into the sea along the side of the ship.

Luka picked up a harpoon from the side and inserted it deeply into the body of the Faceless Warrior, nailing him to the deck. The Faceless Warrior's tentacle was wrapped around the harpoon and twisted into a twist.

Immediately afterwards, Luka rushed to the side of the ship and cut off several tentacles that reached the deck. Luka was wearing a metal magic pattern structure. The Faceless Warrior's tentacles were like flexible sea snakes, wrapped around his body. He kept waving two moon blade axes to cut off the tentacles that stretched out, but found that more tentacles stretched out.

The moon blade axe made of black iron was extremely sharp, and every time it was chopped, the Faceless Warrior was frightened. Luka stood on the deck, facing the Faceless Warriors who boarded the ship, as if rushing into an uninhabited place.

On this battlefield, the one that these faceless warriors feared the most was not Katarina, who was elusive with a kukri. Nor was it the powerful minotaur Luka, who held a moon blade axe. It was Kalancuo, who danced the double-edged sword like a mountain of blades.

The magic pattern structure on Kalancuo's body exuded a light blue magic glow, and the double-edged sword in her hand swallowed and spit out dazzling blade light.

She was like a hell killer, constantly strangling the faceless warriors who climbed onto the ship. Every time the sharp blade chopped down, the tentacles of the faceless would be cut off by Kalancuo's double-edged sword. The scene of blood and flesh flying made the battle-hardened sailors on the deck change color.

If the gift of the spider warriors on the Hiero plane is ‘strength’, then the gift of the faceless warriors on the Vashj plane is ‘regeneration’. These faceless warriors are like immortals. Even if they are cut into several pieces by a sharp blade, they will not die immediately. These broken tentacles will tightly wrap around anything they touch.

Those tentacles fell on the deck, and sailors were constantly entangled by them. Those tentacles have powerful power and strangled several sailors alive.

I was worried that there would be more sailors who would be innocently affected, so I hurriedly asked the first mate on the ship to lead them to hide on the top of the ship.

The first mate shouted to the sailors: "Guys, lift our spearguns to the ship's top."

These sailors were once a group of pirates, and they believed in a creed in their hearts: 'On the sea, only the brave have the right to live. 'Five or six sailors carried scimitars and ran to pick up the spearguns on the deck. Under the cover of other sailors, they quickly climbed onto the ship.

Noah, Shirley Newman, and Senior Dylan stood on the ship's tower. They seemed a little restrained when casting spells because they were worried that the fireball would ignite the sails of the 'Shirley'.

The primary magic missiles cast by Senior Dylan could not hurt the thick-skinned Faceless Men at all. At this time, Deborah landed on the roof railing and looked at Senior Dylan with curiosity. Seeing Senior Dylan cast a series of gorgeous magic missiles, her eyes showed admiration.

A series of primary magic missiles hit the Faceless Warrior, only burning the Faceless Warrior's slightly colorful skin into grayish white, and did not cause any substantial damage to the Faceless Warrior. Deborah smiled awkwardly, flapped her wings and flew away.

Senior Dylan's face flushed, and the spell he chanted again actually began to gather the power of space. A complex magic pattern array appeared in front of his body, and the space between his hands began to distort extremely. A black crack that could absorb light appeared in the distorted space, forming a black arcane blade.

Senior Dylan threw the arcane blade in his hand towards a faceless warrior who had just climbed onto the deck. The black space crack kept absorbing various elements around it. In just a flash, it arrived in front of the faceless warrior. The black arcane blade pierced into the body of the faceless warrior, like a big black mouth, constantly sucking the flesh and blood of the faceless warrior.

The faceless warrior wanted to struggle, but found that most of his body had disappeared. Then, the black arcane blade also disappeared after the magic power was exhausted.

Senior Dylan's understanding of space cracks has reached a very deep level, so he can manipulate space cracks so skillfully.

You have to know that if the indiscriminate attack magic of space rift is not used properly, it can not only hurt others, but also hurt yourself. What's more, it can even cause the surrounding space to collapse continuously, causing the entire plane to completely collapse under the small space rift. This is not without precedent.

A three-meter-long ice spear was suspended above my head. Just then, a faceless man rushed to the bow. I used magic to guide the ice spear to pierce the chest of the faceless man. The sharp ice spear passed through the body with huge potential energy and pierced the faceless man on the deck. The ice flame on the ice spear spread to the faceless man, and immediately formed a thick layer of ice crystals on the faceless man.

But before two seconds had passed, the faceless man with strange power broke free from the ice crystals, and his skin was covered with a thick layer of broken ice. A layer of ice flame burned on their skin, constantly condensing ice crystals, but as the faceless warrior continued to move, the ice crystals on his body continued to burst.

It endured the stinging pain from the ice crystals on its body, and found me standing on the bow deck, and rushed towards me without hesitation. I saw that the dark eyes hidden on the left and right sides of its head released a hateful light. It stood on the deck. Although it was in human form and tried its best to imitate humanoid creatures when running, it was still a tentacle monster in its bones. Its muscle tissue kept squirming, and a tentacle more than three meters long was thrown towards me.

However, the faceless man had just taken two steps forward, and a light blue magic glow appeared under my feet. A blue light circle spread outward with my body as the center, freezing the faceless man in place again.

‘Frost Nova’

I cast two magic spells without interruption, making the faceless man completely violent.

He grabbed me with his long tentacles angrily. After the tentacles smashed three ice shields, an arc of electricity penetrated into his arms. His arms made crackling sounds. He was electrocuted by my "lightning arrows". Several thick tentacles on his body kept twitching. He looked very painful.

I wanted to rush forward with Shura Axe, but was stopped by Justus who was standing beside me. There was a faint green light in his eyes. He just said to me: "I'll do it!"

He rushed forward with his bare hands. While running, many dark scales suddenly grew on his body. Long bone spurs grew on his hands, legs and back, revealing his other half of the true body of the sea monster. The bone spurs, like a rapier, pierced deeply into the chest of the faceless warrior. Justus was then slapped away by the faceless warrior with his tentacles.

Justus' body was covered with bone spurs. When the tentacles of the Faceless Man whipped Justus, they were immediately pierced by the bone spurs. After Justus turned into a half-sea monster, his physical strength also increased significantly. After being whipped by the Faceless Man, he just groaned lightly.

He moved very flexibly behind the Faceless Man and used the bone spurs that grew on his wrists, which were as long as one meter, to pierce the back of the Faceless Man's neck. The bone spurs on his wrists, which were like fish fins, were fully unfolded. There were as many as six of them, all piercing the back of the Faceless Man's neck.

I originally thought that with the Faceless Man's super strong "regeneration" ability, he would definitely use his tentacles to counterattack Justus for the second time, but I didn't expect that the Faceless Man would be stabbed in the back by Justus, and he actually collapsed into a puddle of mud and fell directly on the deck. A large amount of black and purple sticky blood was secreted from his body. After a while, only a layer of skin was left of the Faceless Man.

Watching Justus' assassination, I couldn't help but be dumbfounded. I never thought that this tavern owner, the descendant of the siren, who had been lying in the stone chamber of the underground cave in Xinliu Valley for more than half a month, was actually a master of assassination. He could kill a faceless warrior with a strength of more than one turn with one blow.

Katarina, who was cutting off the hands and feet of the faceless man in the distance, also stopped and looked over here in surprise.

Kalancuo and the minotaur Luka also paused, then wielded the moon blade axe and split the faceless man in front of them in half with unparalleled strength.

At this time, the deck of the "Shirley" was full of sticky black and purple blood, and the fishy and unpleasant smell spread far away.

I was surrounded by the four-element stone drum totem, and the magic effect of the totem spread all around. Justus looked at his body in surprise, and a white wind circle appeared under his feet. He couldn't help but ask me in surprise: "Are you a magician or a great wizard?"

Put three ice shields on Justus and said to him with a smile: "Of course, I am a water magician!"

Justus asked me with an unbelievable expression: "Are all the magicians in the Green Empire like you?"

It seems that there must be quite a few adventure groups to Dunai Island in recent years. Justus has some understanding of the magicians in those adventure groups. In his impression, magicians are a group of weak scholars. They are not like me who dare to rush up to the battlefield with an axe and want to fight in close combat.

Maybe it's because these faceless warriors are more suitable for fighting in the sea. Once they leave the sea where they depend on for survival, their combat effectiveness actually drops significantly. Maybe they can only exert their true strength in the sea.

But then again, unless we sink the sailboat, how could we go into the sea and fight with them?

A dozen faceless warriors rushed to the "Shirley". According to their understanding of humans, a lone sailboat generally has no combat power, but they didn't expect to meet us. Just a round of fighting almost destroyed the whole army.

Watching the last faceless man's limbs go into the sea, our battle is coming to an end. The sailors on the ship's top ran down in joy. They threw harpoons on the roof, which also caused a lot of trouble for these faceless warriors. Some faceless man's limbs and arms were firmly nailed to the deck by harpoons.

At the beginning, these limbs were still struggling under the harpoons. Now those faceless limbs have lost their vitality, leaving only a patch of black and purple sticky blood, and some skins that quickly decayed in the sun.

The sailors ran down from the ship's top and behaved very actively. Without the urge of the first mate, they immediately drew water from the sea and washed the deck.

Some sailors used harpoons to pick up the rapidly decaying flesh and threw it into the sea.

The sailors on the ship were all pirates on the ship before, and they believed in the principle of "the strong are respected". The more they experienced battles, the more respectful they were to us.

Afterwards, Noah and I discussed it and decided that although we were discovered by a team of faceless patrols, there was no need to return immediately. We asked the first mate to study the sea chart of the Great Abyss and decided to change the course. It was impossible to rush directly into the central area of ​​the Great Abyss at this time, but we wanted to go around a big circle and go back to the dead volcano island to investigate.

This group of faceless warriors left us thirteen black magic crystals.

The faceless warriors did not leave any useful magic materials, nor did they leave us with some black iron weapons like the spider warriors, but in terms of hunting faceless warriors, it was much more cost-effective than hunting those low-level sea beasts. Even if those sea beasts could obtain some magic materials, not every sea beast had a magic core in its skull. Even if they obtained a magic core, not every magic core contained magic crystal stones.

But these faceless warriors were different. Basically, every dead faceless warrior left a black magic crystal. These black magic crystals were obviously more valuable than magic crystal stones, because in addition to having the same value as magic crystals, each magic crystal could also be exchanged for some merits.

And although these faceless warriors have the strength of first-level warriors, their combat power is greatly weakened after leaving the sea. Compared with the spider warriors on the Yello plane, their combat power is at least reduced by half.

After the "Shirley" went deep into the abyss, we did not deliberately avoid the patrol teams of the faceless men, and we harvested some magic crystals almost every day.

The sailors living on the "Shirley" have never seen such a fast way of robbing money? In their impression, only by robbing merchant ships or selling Naga sea slaves can they exchange some gold coins.

And our group, at the beginning, was still hunting low-level sea beasts in the sea step by step. In recent days, we have been so arrogant that we have gone deep into the enemy-occupied areas of the abyss and began to hunt those faceless warriors patrolling on the sea unscrupulously...

Although Justus's drug addiction has not improved, it has not worsened. It must be said that this is definitely good news.

This shows that Justus's method is very effective. He constantly strengthens his physique and uses his own strength to resist the addiction brought by the 'demon blood'. Moreover, as we gradually get to know him better, we find that Justus is also a very knowledgeable person, especially his understanding of the Dovasqi plane, which is like an encyclopedia.

Justus told me that all the knowledge and information accumulated in his mind came from the Thieves Guild in his tavern.

Maybe it's because our 'Shirley' is too ostentatious in the sea area of ​​the Great Sea Abyss. After all, this is an area controlled by the Faceless Legion. So before we arrived at the dead volcano island, a large group of Faceless followed us...

It's really a bit of a pit to update the timeline
