Pirate Sequence: Start with Outlaws

The Quicksand Snake, this thing is recorded in the strategic manual prepared by Beloberg for them.

Rune had also seen it before.

As one of the few living creatures in the Balanced Sand Sea, it naturally attracted more attention from him.

Named the Sand Sea Snake, it does not mean that it is a real snake.

In comparison, it is more like an elemental creature, but its shape and habits are very similar to snakes, so it is named this way.

In the previous exploration of the four-nation coalition, there has been no record of capturing the Sand Sea Snake.

Only some explorers have seen it. The Sand Sea Snake is made of golden balanced quicksand, which contains a very precious core, which may be related to the alchemy formula in this level.

In the coalition's speculation, capturing the Sand Sea Snake is likely to be an important way to obtain the alchemy formula of the current challenge level.

In the entire sand sea, there are no more than 300 known surviving Quicksand Snakes.

Compared with such a large area of ​​sand sea, it is extremely difficult to encounter snakes.

So Rune saw it at this moment, and there was no reason to let it go.

"Change the route temporarily and catch up with this strange snake."

As soon as Rune's order was issued, the transport ship immediately changed its direction.

Among the three transport ships of Beloberg, this one was under Rune's jurisdiction alone, and the people below obeyed his command completely.

Casruituo and Liad were resting on the ship. When they heard that there was a quicksand strange snake outside, they ran out to observe.

After confirming the location of the strange snake below, Casruituo became excited immediately.

"It's a sand sea strange snake. Hurry up and catch up with me. Major General Ores said that catching one would be a great achievement!"

As he said that, he kept yelling beside him, which gave Lu Wen a headache.

Little Carter was already a very active person, and Casruituo's energy was even more vigorous than Little Carter. Rune even suspected that he had some ADHD.

However, it was precisely because of this guy's personality that he was very adventurous and often did not fear when danger came.

It can be said that there are both good and bad.

The warship chased the Sand Sea Snake all the way forward, but not long after, a warship from Shuanglong Castle also appeared in the distance.

Surprisingly, the other side's route was about to intersect with Rune's warship.

"Everyone, get ready for battle."

Rune did not take any chances. Facing a warship that he encountered alone with an unknown purpose, he had made all the worst plans.

When both sides could see each other clearly, the leader standing on the Shuanglong Castle warship waved to Rune, indicating that he had no hostility.

Rune also signaled the people behind him not to act rashly.

The leader on the opposite side was Lincoln, the Major General of Shuanglong Castle who was Sequence 5 and was about to break through Sequence 4.

"Colonel Rune, I came here without hostility, and not for this Sand Sea Snake."

Lincoln said, as if to express his sincerity, he jumped down, and the breath of dragon blood filled the air.

The spirituality in his body suddenly burst out, and he actually caught the Sand Sea Snake in his hand and put it into a transparent box.

He moved and came to the Beloberg warship again, handing the box to Rune.

"This is just a small gift of respect. I heard that it was your friend Captain Xuehai who rescued Karinno last time, Colonel Rune. I am very grateful."

"To be honest, Karinno is one of my most beloved nephews. If she died in the Tomb of Constantine last time, I can't imagine how I would feel."

Lincoln's expression was very sincere.

Seeing this, Rune also nodded slightly and took the transparent box from the other party.

Seeing that the Sand Sea Snake inside was still struggling, trying to break free from this bondage, but was powerless.

The Peeping Eye was immediately activated, and the layers of array structures in the Sand Sea Snake came into view.

These array patterns were very familiar to Rune.

The two arrays of the previous Wanfa Living Beings and the Land of Slashing have something in common with them.

Written by Constantine.

The so-called Sand Sea Snake is a creation generated by the balanced quicksands being affected by the surrounding arrays over the years.

Observing the situation inside the Sand Sea Snake, Rune already had some understanding of the balanced quicksand.

If Rune was interested, he could impose some binding arrays on the snake and then release it for careful study, but now was not the time.

He looked at Major General Lincoln on the side, who seemed to have something to say to him.

Lincoln did not hide this, he said to Rune: "This Sand Sea Snake said before that it was just a small gift for meeting, and it is true. I came to you not just for this thing."

"Just tell me what you want to say." Rune always gives the other party a chance to speak for such a sincere person.

Lincoln said: "The Sand Sea Snakes are an important target that we need to track down at present. As long as we collect enough snakes, we will have a great chance to crack the secret of the Balanced Quicksand World."

"You also saw the ability I used before. It was specially developed by our Shuanglong Castle in combination with our dragon bloodline. It has a good capture effect on Sand Sea Snakes, and we have also found a gathering place for Sand Sea Winged Snakes."

"It's just that there are a lot of crises there, so we thought about whether we could cooperate with Beloberg to explore that place together."

"Beloberg and our Double Dragon Castle share the risk, and then our Double Dragon Castle will capture the alien snake, and in the end the two companies will share the profits equally."

Luann thought about Lincoln's proposal for a while.

He also saw Lincoln's move just now. It was indeed a very targeted technique against the strange snake.

If you let yourself catch the strange snake, the success rate may not be low, but it will definitely not be as easy as the other party.

If we can cooperate with Double Dragon Castle, the operation to capture the strange snakes will be much smoother, not to mention the news that the other party has a gathering place for strange snakes.

No matter how you look at the cooperation, the final profit will be split 50/50, and Belloberg's people will take advantage of it.

But there must be other reasons.

Ssangyong Castle clearly knew where the strange snakes gathered, so why did they choose to cooperate with Beloberg? Is it really because they saved his nephew once?

There may be related reasons, but they are definitely not the dominant reasons.

In the competition for interests between the two principalities, how could I make concessions because of a junior?

There is only one real reason, and that is that the gathering place of strange snakes will be very dangerous.

They couldn't bear the risk with the people of Double Dragon Castle alone, so they had to recruit the more powerful Beloberg people to have a chance of success.

But even so, Lu En planned to agree to the other party's request.

Wealth and wealth are found in danger.

No one would give up an opportunity.

And if they don't do it, Double Dragon Castle will definitely find people from the Renard Principality to go there.

"I have no problem with this proposal, but I still need to see the opinions of the other two colonels." Lu En agreed temporarily.

"That's good, we will sign a soul contract later." Lincoln returned to his warship without saying anything else.

He understood that among Belloberg, although the other two colonels had higher paper strength and military rank than Colonel Luen in front of him,

But the person who can really make the final decision here is Luen.

As long as Lu En agrees, there is basically no problem with cooperation.

The two warships moved forward smoothly and successfully arrived at the predetermined location according to the guidance given on the map.

After waiting in place for nearly half an hour, other transport ships finally arrived.

The transport ships of the four-nation coalition gathered here. This was an event that had been planned before.

Although the four countries have their own struggles and different interests, they have learned from the experience and lessons learned from the last time they entered the Tomb of Constantine.

The four-nation coalition still made an agreement in advance.

That is, before fully understanding the world of balanced quicksand, the four countries gathered together to keep warm in case something unexpected happened.

The two colonels Henry and Lane arrived. After hearing about the deal between Rune and Double Dragon Castle, they also nodded in agreement.

Without the guidance of Double Dragon Castle, they would be exploring the world of balancing quicksand without any purpose, relying entirely on luck.

At this time, Shuanglong Castle had relevant news clues, and it was too late for them to be happy.

As for the people of Renard Principality, they have never given Luen and the others a good look.

After all, in the Four-Nation Alliance, they were the only ones going head-to-head with the Principality of Beloberg.

After some discussion, the Principality of Renard was even more angry about the alliance between Beloberg and Double Dragon Castle.

But no matter how they looked at the calm faces of Lu En and Lincoln, they didn't dare to have any objections.

The Principality of Wisteria originally wanted to join the alliance between Beloberg and Double Dragon Castle, but was rejected by Double Dragon Castle.

The two forces can share a piece of the pie and gain some benefits from each other.

If all three forces were involved, there would be too little to share.

The Wisteria Principality can only explore on its own. So

"This is the drawn up soul contract. Colonel, take a look at it."

After taking Lincoln's contract, Luen scanned it carefully and found no problems before signing his name on it.

The content is roughly as follows: The profits from the strange snakes in the sand sea are equally divided, and the content related to the alchemy array pattern depends on each person's ability.

Cooperation achieved.

The soul contract was certain, and the two parties had become temporarily reliable allies, and Lincoln generously shared all the information he had obtained.

The found gathering place for strange snakes in the sand sea is about a day's journey away from here, but it is very hidden.

Their scouts had previously discovered that there were nearly seventy or eighty sand seas wandering there, and it seemed that something strange was attracting them.

But around that area, there were some unknown beasts and dangers.

If it weren't for the special sequence of their temptations and the characteristics of being a scapegoat, they would have been unable to return there long ago.

"As far as we know now, the more dangerous ones around the gathering place are sandstorms and desert batfish."

Lincoln explained to Luen and the others,

"The sandstorm is a unique barrier-like existence around the desert snake gathering place. It has not been seen in other places in the Balanced Sand Sea."

"This kind of sandstorm will accumulate the equilibrium quicksand and create a very destructive climate."

"At the same time, this kind of sandstorm does not occur naturally, but forms whenever foreign creatures or beings want to enter the vicinity of the gathering place."

"So we guess that there are probably some detection arrays nearby."

"But the specific triggering conditions are not clear yet, and we need to analyze them temporarily, and those desert bat fish are also very dangerous."

"They are formed by the accumulation of impurities in the balanced quicksand. They are very aggressive and huge in size. According to the reports of our explorers, the size of each desert batfish is about 8 to 10 meters."

Just listening to Lincoln's words, Kasruituo and others felt a little terrified, "How much did you say? 8 to 10 meters, how exaggerated!"

Lincoln also nodded, "I haven't seen the specific situation, but the explorer's words are true, we must be prepared at any time."

At this time, Luen finally understood why Shuanglong Castle must bring another force to participate.

8 to 10 meters of desert batfish, just listening to this description is enough to shock people.

It seems that this action must be cautious enough.

After having some understanding of the situation of the gathering place, the warship also headed towards the gathering place without stopping.

Along the way, Lu Wen was a little fascinated by the sand sea under his feet.

It really surged like the sea, and there were many creatures living in it that he could hardly identify.

It's just that these creatures only show up occasionally, making it hard to see clearly.

But everyone knows that there are countless crises and opportunities hidden under this sea of ​​sand.

One day later, the warship finally docked slowly.

Rune stood on the deck of the ship, looking forward, feeling something in his heart.

The world ahead is completely different from the current situation.

Lincoln came to Rune and others' warship and said, "More than 200 meters ahead is the extraordinary realm we explored before. As long as any foreign objects enter it, it will immediately cause terrible things."

As he spoke, a member of the Shuanglong Castle's warship threw a shell forward.

As soon as the shell passed through a certain line, there was an imperceptible wind.

A wisp of balanced quicksand went up with the wind, and the shell immediately disappeared into thin air.

Everyone looked solemn when they saw this scene.

After the members of Shuanglong Castle determined the specific location, their alchemist drove a small boat slowly forward, wanting to explore the mystery of this place, and Rune also frowned slightly and looked into the distance.

In his peeping eyes, the world in front of him was actually not abnormal, and there was no existence of some detection array as imagined.

The alchemist of Shuanglong Castle also explored for a long time and came to the same answer as Rune.

"This is a headache. Without the array, how did the sandstorm trigger?" Kasruituo fell into deep thought.

Then, the extraordinary people of the two forces took turns to attack, trying spells, arcane, holy light and other energies, but there was no answer.

"What is going on."
