My players are so fierce

Chapter 988 986. Song of Ice and Fire

"This is the first time for me to see such a large-scale storm ceremony, even as old as me. It seems that the Dagon Secret Cult is serious this time. There is at least one 'Holy Son' presiding over the ceremony in the dark sea. It is difficult to handle it! "

In the night sky of Port Chardeau, violent storms were blowing, and thunder was sweeping across the city like a snake of lightning. In the background, Cuisi, holding a lightning staff, stood in the sky.

Her huge bat wings allowed her to stabilize her body in the storm, and the psychic energy field flowing around her body prevented even the wildest raindrops from touching her body, while a pair of sharp blood-red eyes were looking towards the port area.

She was trying to capture the core of the storm ritual through the manic flow of psychic energy. In fact, Tris already knew what she should do before Lao Qin sent someone to notify her.

"It should be somewhere in the open sea, under the deep sea. I really picked a good place. My wings can't protect me in the abyss against the abyss walkers of the Dagon Secret Cult.

But being able to prepare such a complicated ritual in such a short period of time, it seems that Father Yu, who has always not interfered in the situation on the mainland, has also set his sights on this mechanical city.

Well, now we can definitely tell that Dagon is among the evil gods behind the dusk, but if I remember correctly, this guy appeared even earlier than Wam and Spider Lady. "

Tris narrowed her eyes, and amid the bursts of thunder, she whispered:

"Based on the Edward's diary Little Murphy showed me, it is not difficult to judge that the secret department of Eden District should also be working behind the birth of Dagon. Ha, it turns out that the evil traditions are all inherited from the same origin."

"Grand Duke, what should we do now?"

Behind Tris, Adele, who was also suspended in the sky, asked softly:

"The Dagon fishmen are attacking the port area, and the jackals outside the city are also attacking the city. The entire Port of Chardo is forced to operate. We must choose a direction for support."

"As long as I'm here! You take people underground to support Murphy and Master Minx. What's going to happen in this city tonight is not two wars, but three. These are just a simple way to divert the tiger away from the mountain."

Tris shook her head and said:

"Whether it is the gnolls outside the city or the murlocs in the port area, they are just targets to attract attention. If our eyes are seduced by the chaos, we will ignore the things happening under our noses and go to the underground place of creation to assist Mo. Fei.

What he is doing is the really important thing, and it may directly affect the survival of this city and even this peninsula.

I'll go meet you after I finish taking care of things here. "

"Um."

Adele nodded, turned around with some difficulty and flew downwards in the storm sweeping the city, while Tris in the air activated the quantum communication of the Farstrider inner armor she was wearing, and said to the other end:

"How long do you have to come over?"

"Already moving at full speed, Grand Duke Tris!"

The person who responded to Tris was His Highness Khufu, the crown prince of the Songhai Empire. The young man explained in a sonorous tone:

"With the assistance of Chief Mosina for repairs, the Origin Pioneer has restored part of its power. Although it cannot reach the highest speed, we are now close to the Gorgon Pass. If we sail directly, we can reach Xia Xia in at most forty minutes. Port of Erdo.

The weather device of the solar ship is prompting that there is a catastrophic weather over there. Please weaken the power of the storm as much as possible before we arrive, so as to ensure the accuracy and destructive power of the solar bombing. "

"Half the city will be submerged in forty minutes, hurry up!"

Tris said coldly:

"Although I don't know much about your solar ship, I guess that the things the Creator has hand-made must have something similar to the 'overload' mode. By the way, can't such a big solar ship be able to make space jumps?"

"Well, there is the 'Astral Submarine' mode, which can shorten the voyage by entering and exiting the astral realm."

His Highness Khufu explained awkwardly:

"But the two star demigods of our Songhai people do not have the power of 'navigation'. If they rush into the broken star world like this, they will probably get lost."

"Then you are blessed today, get ready to jump in now!"

Tris reminded:

"I will contact the wanderer to lead you across the star realm to Port Shardau, and prepare for the sun bombing in advance!"

"Okay, we're waiting to hear from you."

Khufu knew the situation was serious.

In particular, Murphy shared with him the information about the hidden place of creation under the Port of Chardoux. For the Songhai people who regard all the knowledge of the Creator as sacred things, the importance of defending the holy place and the God of Creation has become Exceeding the option of "escape and save the ship", the Crown Prince prepared for the solar ship's first astral submergence in the new era without any hesitation.

A few minutes later, at the moment when General Bhopal started the astral submersible, and amidst the hum of the sun engine, the entire ship, which had barely reached 65% repair level, was sent into the lonely star realm, in the light sound like the rhythm of sea water. , the huge body of the wanderer appeared in front of the Origin Pioneer.

The huge turtle claws swayed in the starlight, signaling the Songhai people to follow it.

"I will take you through four star gates, which will allow you to reach Port Shardor in ten minutes, but there is Dagon's divine power there that is interfering with the landing point, so you may randomly land in the Sea of ​​Mist after jumping out. in a certain area.”

The slow but very steady voice of the wanderer Cui Tan echoed in the bridge of the Origin Pioneer, and it explained:

"The Mermaid Wanderer priests of the Temple of the Giant Rock are already in the waters near Port Shardo ready to guide you. After returning to the material world, go to their area and join the battlefield more quickly."

"Thank you, Wanderer!"

At this moment, the Sun Priest Bodinos, who had just recovered from his injury, next to His Highness Khufu, who was fully armed, responded in a deep voice:

"Thank you for your assistance in this battle of defense. Your reputation will spread throughout the thousands of miles of sand."

"Thanks, but I'm not doing this for you."

Cui Tan smiled, and while leading the way, he said slowly and proudly:

"Old Turtle, I have no friendship with Parom or Hades, nor have I had any interactions with you Songhai people in the past. But if the Creator Chosen needs my help, then all the demigods in the astral world, including me, All are happy to support.

Now get your ships ready, people of Songhai, I’m going to speed up, Old Turtle.”

——

"Ugly thing! Get out of here!"

On the dark night streets of the port area, Brother Meow Meow roared and swung his giant axe.

The red energy of war surrounded the axe, and with his powerful chops, he chopped off the neck of the giant sea snake in front of him. The evil thing wanted to strike at the last moment, but the beast was filled with venom. As soon as his big mouth opened, he was slapped in the eye with a heavy shield by Sanwu Dou who roared and came down from the second floor.

Avalon's divine power exploded into emerald fire in the storm, causing the sinister Abyss Sea Serpent to breathe its last breath in pain.

Brother Meow Meow, who had killed the giant beast unit, panted and turned around. The street guarded by the Big Bird Group behind him was already a river of blood. There were disgusting green blood and corpses of murlocs scattered everywhere. They were arranged further away. The walking machine has been damaged and shut down.

The ammunition fired by this thing before it was destroyed made the whole neighborhood pockmarked.

The first street fighting experience was quite good. The players adapted quickly. They fought against the rushing murlocs in every street and alley in the port area. Although the storm environment strengthened the murlocs' combat effectiveness, the rear area had been taken over by Lao Qin. Fire support still made it difficult for them to advance quickly in the port area.

However, the numerical advantage of these guys is not comparable to that of jackals and kobolds. The lack of morale makes the players suffer enough.

Even if they can easily kill several murlocs with one swing of the sword, their killing speed cannot keep up with the speed at which the murlocs emerge. This is still when all members are equipped with blood vulture claws, and the firepower advantage is diluted by the number of enemies. , the sea barbarians took the concept of "human sea tactics" to the extreme.

The most important thing is that the opponent seems to have selected the "Psychic Advantage" war technology tree. The murloc's spellcasting power is much stronger than that of the jackal.

"Level four psychic fluctuations detected!"

On the dilapidated building, Yan Sang, who was manipulating a large automatic hunting crossbow and holding his position, shouted:

"A large-scale psychic spell is coming, everyone be careful to avoid it!"

"coming!"

Sanwu Dou held the unbreakable heavy shield in his hand on the ground, and Avalon's divine magic on the ground was activated.

The emerald green light created a barrier as thick as a city wall to protect the members of the Big Bird Group and a group of newbies. Almost at the same time that the magic was activated, the cold tide surrounding them that had submerged to their feet seemed to be given life.

Under the control of the fish-man Abyss Walker, the water flow quickly absorbed the heat energy and converted it into a solid state and completed freezing in the next moment. Within a few seconds, the entire street was frozen in broken ice. The corpses and broken buildings everywhere were soaked in frost white and damaged. The walking machines were also frozen into ice sculptures.

Even though the magical protection allowed the players to avoid freezing, the change in temperature still made the newcomers shiver after persisting in the rain for a long time.

Brother Meow Meow cursed because the army of carnivorous plants he summoned had all lost their activity due to the "coming of cold winter". Fortunately, the war bramble beast was ferocious enough, and when the murlocs stepped on the ice and howled at them, they rushed towards He gave them a firm response, and it only took one reunion to fight back the fish-men's counterattack.

But before the members of the Big Bird Group could take a breath, a bright bolt of lightning fell from the sky, like a trident thrown by a sea god, hitting Brother Mew Mew's thorn beast right in the middle, causing the guy's health bar to drop to zero and falling to the ground as the thunder was ignited. .

"We won't be able to hold on if this continues."

He shook his sore wrist with his little hand and complained:

"I can't even remember how many murlocs I killed during this period, but this psychic land-cleansing offensive is really incomprehensible. In other words, the surrounding storm seems to have weakened under Mrs. Tracey's psychic counterattack. Isn’t the airship able to take off yet?”

"This level is obviously not good enough. It is a big balloon. It will be blown away if it goes up into the sky."

Jie Chong shook his head and said:

"If we don't kill the core of the murloc's storm ritual, we won't be able to provide fire support. The tide is still rising. We will have to evacuate this area in half an hour at most. If we retreat on horseback, the entire port area will be surrendered! Zhuo .”

"What can we do?"

Brother Heise complained:

"I can swim, but if you ask me to kill the fishmen in the water, I will definitely not be able to do it. Take a break. Those idiots have frozen this place, barely blocking the advance of the tide."

"We can also freeze the water flow and follow the example of fish people to change the terrain and turn this place into a temporary dam."

Brother Miao Miao rubbed his chin and said:

"Can the members of the Church of Winter Wolf do it?"

"That's an entire dock area of ​​water! Are you crazy? Which player can do such a thing at this stage?"

Sanwudou complained:

"To freeze so much liquid in an instant, I guess Lao Sutou or his divine choice will have to come here in person, right?"

"Hey, come up quickly! Old Qin has given an order for everyone to move to high ground and prepare to launch a counterattack!"

Yan Sang's shout interrupted the complaints of the members of the Big Bird Group, making them look at each other in shock.

Is Lao Qin going crazy due to too much pressure?

The front is already flooded, so how can the brothers charge?

Should we follow the example of those warrior monks who walk on water?

But an order is an order. After a few minutes, everyone, including the Big Bird Group, retreated to the nearest high ground. While they were waiting, a distant wolf howl suddenly tore through the roar of the storm and appeared in the night rain in the port area. , causing Mew Miao to suddenly turn his head and look behind him.

"I seem to have heard this voice!"

He blinked in confusion.

The next moment, the extremely cold wind followed the source of the wolf's howl and blew across the entire port area in a sweeping manner.

Wherever the cold wind reaches, everything freezes, just like the arrival of hoarfrost. The sudden cold wind blew on Brother Mew Miao, causing his armor to turn white with frost. The newbies who were caught off guard next to him shook their bodies and cursed, "It's freezing to death."

"Fuck! Your crow's mouth is really fucking amazing."

When everything was frozen, Yan Sang, with the best eyesight, screamed:

"Look! 'Calamity Winter Wolf' Eris is here!"

Under his guidance, the players saw the dark winter wolf leaping up from the rear position. At this time, he was charging towards the submerged dock area while stepping on his frozen city in a playful manner.

Its claws were equipped with the power of winter from Lao Sutou. The moment it came into contact with the turbid sea water, the floating sea surface turned into an ever-extending wall of winter.

In the classic roar of the black winter wolf, the battlefield that had just been transformed into a tidal land by the murlocs using terrain tactics was turned back into an ice sheet by Eris using the same method.

Of course, Eris is not an old Sutou. It is still far away from the life stage of a demigod at this time. It is impossible to perform the miracle of freezing the sea. The spreading ice sheet can reach the boundary of the dock area and stop invading. The freeze extended further downwards, turning the murlocs and their sea beasts that couldn't escape into lovely pieces of ice.

"The time to counterattack has come! Brothers, charge at me!"

Brother Mingmiao, who was furious after being beaten, suddenly became excited when he saw this scene.

With a roar, he jumped down from the high ground against the still blowing storm and night rain, stepped on the cold ice and charged forward with his tomahawk raised high. The members of the Big Bird Group followed him and rushed out of the defense zone. Tris, who was suppressing the storm ritual, looked down.

This scene is very much like a pack of wolves hunting on the ice field. Players stepped onto the ice field from all directions and rushed towards Eris. The vampire aviation also took action at this time and dropped aerial bombs on the edge of the ice field to create a beating line. of fire.

And further away, when Tris looked up, she saw the bright light of the sun slashing down like a sword in the sky.

Solar bombing is coming too!

The Songhai people caught up, and the bright fire pillar fell from the clouds. The light and heat it emitted instantly dispersed the fish people, creating a storm that enveloped the city, bringing the light and heat back to the trapped city, and accurately The bombing also destroyed the core of the fishman's storm ritual in an instant.

Without the auspices of the Dagon Secret Cult, the energy level of the Great Storm began to weaken rapidly.

"Lift off! Lift off! Quick! Our brothers need us!"

Doujiu, who had been nervously paying attention to the weather changes, turned around and shouted to the airship operators behind him:

"Brothers, it's time to set the sea on fire! Let's burn those stinky salted fish to death."

In his roar, three armed airships loaded with explosives immediately took off. They crossed over the city and the ice fields below that reflected the dim light in the night, and passed over Eris and the counterattacking warriors who were biting the sea beasts. them.

Finally, under the indifferent orders of Doujiu Bailai and the other two captains, the bomb bay of the airship that took off against the strong wind was opened.

The black aerial bombs once again turned into iron rain, hitting the turbulent black sea with the anger of Transia. Those ugly fishmen descended in the water, trying to let the sea protect them, but as those roaring hells came, The object fell, and even the immeasurable sea floated into a flame at this moment.

From a distance, it really looks like the sea is on fire.

So at this moment, a strange scene of ice and fire was staged outside the dock area of ​​Port Chardeau, and the undead heroes were fighting with the villains of the sea in this scene.

The battle is not over yet, but the shadow that shrouded the city has been torn away. Perhaps at the next dawn, warmer light will shine again.

"That... Grand Duke Tris!"

Eris, who had just killed a big octopus and dragged it to the ice field to try the "seafood", raised his head and shouted to the vampire archduke in the sky:

"According to the labor contract between me and Murphy, who will settle this order for me soon? It's really tiring to fight or something like that. Considering how hard I have worked, I should be paid double for this order. Isn’t that too much?”
