Soul of Searing Steel

Chapter 381: Just the name is enough

Views:

Without reading the next instructions, Joshua simply turned off the system.

"The name of this monster is the Deserted Predator."

After explaining to the people around him, he took a step forward and moved his position closer to the bow of the ship. The tentacles covered with sharp teeth and composed of countless crystal fragments noticed the human in front of him, and they suddenly began to become even more crazy. The impact of the time signal's barrier.

The huge black tentacles are two meters thick, and each slap is comparable to a direct blow from a hammer weighing more than ten tons. Both the rain and the air are torn apart by this brute force, and the translucent shock wave spreads to dozens of meters through the rain curtain. Outside, the roar of silence is like thunder.

If it weren't for the Time Ship's barrier, it would only take half a second for them to easily tear apart the Ark's hull and kill all the crew members.

"You know this monster?"

Loranda was the first to ask. He was not surprised by this. The Radcliffe family had been enemies of the Famine God for generations, and they already knew the Famine God's dependents very well: "Then how to deal with this kind of thing?"

"I don't know." Joshua shook his head: "I only know the name."

—but enough is enough.

Before he finished speaking, the black coat on his body moved automatically without wind, and the fiery aura spread around the warrior's body. Joshua raised his right hand, and he could see endless black tentacles in front of him striking the barrier of the ark crazily.

The lost power of the Time Ship could not be avoided. Under the continuous attacks, the hexagonal white barrier gradually became dim and seemed to be broken soon, but the soldier turned a blind eye and showed a smile on his face: "At least I know , what did I kill.”

After he finished speaking, he punched hard in the air.

The strong muscles on the right arm seemed to be made of steel, and the black-red fighting energy surged in Joshua's right fist, and was finally condensed into a group of black ripples.

Pushing out with a punch, accompanied by a sharp roar caused by the air being stripped away by the huge force, black ripples spread from the warrior's fist. In an instant, the heavy rain disappeared, the huge waves raging in the Black Sea subsided, and the whole world seemed like ripples in the water. It shook, and a huge hole with a diameter of twenty meters suddenly appeared in the dense group of black tentacles that originally covered the first half of the Time Ship's hull. And behind it, the black mist and surging waves were also penetrated by invisible forces. A vacuum passage hundreds of meters long was formed, and at the end of the passage, a hateful monster was preparing to escape in terror.

This cone-shaped monster is composed of layers of red and black flesh. It is dozens of meters tall. It looks like a lighthouse. Its huge body is full of twisted yellow-brown eyeballs. Its body is like an octopus, and its tentacles are shining like crystal. Material, the huge octopus monster swallows black crystal dust, polluting the surrounding sea area as if it is spraying ink.

Because of the black mist, the monster was well hidden, and even Robzek didn't notice its aura. But this kind of hiding was too ridiculous for Joshua, who had the Azure Orb, and the warrior could see through its location at a glance. .

It was about to escape, but black ripples hit its body instantly. Immediately, the monster seemed to be crushed by a huge hammer, convulsing crazily, its ferocious head and mouth like a blood-sucking disk. The weapon deformed at a speed visible to the naked eye. The black and red flesh was crushed to the extreme, and then completely turned into flesh. In an instant, black and red mist of minced meat and powder exploded on its body, creating a huge fist-shaped cavity. appear on its body.

The mutilated body froze in place, black ripples spread, and illusory flames ignited on the monster's body. All remaining crystal tentacles collapsed at this moment, and the power in each crystal fragment was linked to a stronger force. Crush thoroughly.

The flames of fighting spirit burned blazingly in the sea water. Soon after, this desolate predator, which was similar in shape to an octopus, was completely reduced to ashes in the endless rising water vapor, and completely dissipated with the wind and waves.

"...The terrifying power of glory."

On one side, Fina frowned slightly and subconsciously protected Hill behind her. The dragon instinct made her feel a little creepy. The blue-haired dragon girl looked at Joshua's back and murmured in a low voice: "The high-level gold Monster, just one blow..."

Before she finished speaking, Fina, who had a straightforward personality, shook her head slightly and stopped talking. Blue ionized ghost fire surged around her. It was obvious that the instinctive power of body protection was suppressed by the warrior's aura. She took a deep breath, and then suppressed the flashing current around her back into her body.

Saya on the side also took a step back slightly. Just now, at the moment when the black murderous intention surged out of Joshua's body, the Sister saw the deep despair and hatred, and the remaining souls after countless monsters were slaughtered. The remains were bound within the man's body and turned into the source of his power. There were also dozens of giant dragons wail in pain. No wonder Fina felt instinctive fear.

Saya naturally knew that those were the opponents that Joshua had killed in the past and were not his own feelings, but even so, the nun was still a little uneasy.

She silently glanced at the warrior's sculpture-like back - who can guarantee that this man as tough as steel will not be affected by these emotions

Compared with the worries of the elder nun, Robzek and others didn't think so much. Although they were also surprised by Joshua's strength, they simply admired the strength of the warrior. They were both extremely powerful people and the silver-haired saint. The knight could better understand what this blow represented - such solid fighting spirit and destructive power of glory. If we were to talk about destructive power alone, he might have been surpassed by Joshua.

After throwing this punch, the warrior carefully experienced the changes in power within his body.

As the experience value increased, the murderous intention wave returned to his body carrying the soul fragments of the desolate predator. The power of the chaotic monster was gradually transformed by the Azure Orb and his fighting spirit, turning into streams of pure life. Energy strengthens his body and fighting spirit.

Perhaps, this is the truth about 'experience value'

Without thinking too much, Joshua looked around the ark. The crystal dust in the waves had lost the control of the owner and had begun to gradually sink towards the bottom of the sea. Along with the surprised cries of the crew in the cabin, he could also feel the pressure inside the ark. The power system is gradually recovering, and it will be able to restart immediately without the obstruction of crystal dust.

However, the black mist still floated on the restless sea, and the strong winds and roars could not blow it away.

The strange aura did not dissipate because of the death of the barren predator.

"There may be enemies."

Loranda also noticed this. He walked to the side of the ship and squinted his eyes, using holy light to penetrate the black fog and observe the surrounding situation. Soon after, the paladin frowned: "Sure enough."

He raised his hand and pointed to a sea area in front of the left side of the ark: "Look there."

Everyone followed Rolanda's reminder and looked at the sea not far away. In the black fog, the sea was rolling with huge waves, and between the waves and the fog, black shadows appeared vaguely, and many strange-shaped fins could be seen. It cuts through the sea surface like a sharp blade, forming conspicuous tracks between storms and waves.

These sea beasts swam extremely fast. In just a few seconds, they approached the Time Ship.

"This fog is too troublesome."

Seeing this scene, Robzek said in a deep voice. Immediately, all the energy nodes on his body were lit up by the holy light. The Paladin stretched out his palm, and the fingertips condensed with dazzling silver light like the sun. He waved his hand, and five A silver holy light flew out from the fingertips and shot toward the surrounding black fog.

Like butter meeting a hot knife, the thick black mist on the sea melted quickly like ice in summer, and the five silver holy lights not only did not dissipate after leaving the body, but instead became more solid. It filtered away the endless black mist, allowing Everyone's vision is broadened.

"Hey guys, how many are there?"

There was no black fog blocking his vision. Hill scanned the sea in front of him, and then his purple pupils shrank slightly. The elf boy looked at the scene in front of him and said with some distress: "How can we continue sailing now?"

With the Time Ship as the center, in the sea area with a radius of several kilometers, giant fins erected one after another broke through the waves and rushed towards the Ark like sharp arrows. Thousands of sea beasts could be seen just above the sea surface, and Under the surface of the sea, there are countless lurking black shadows swimming rapidly. As an ocean druid who is familiar with sea beasts, Hill can conclude that at this time, there are more than 30,000 sea beasts and giant fish of different types heading towards the time menacingly. The number pounced.

With such a terrifying number and a huge size of more than ten meters, the sea beasts can make it difficult for the Ark to move even if it relies solely on impact.

"What are they trying to do?"

Robzek had already noticed something was wrong, and he said in a solemn tone: "First the Ark lost power, and then it was attacked by sea beasts. This is not like the cooperation of wild beasts."

"There must be some kind of command behind it." Saya could also see that all this could not be explained by the instinctive attack of the corrosive sea beast.

"Of course, and the purpose of that existence is to delay time." Joshua looked at the sky. At this time, he could vaguely hear thunder coming from the sky, but the black mist in mid-air blocked all the light of lightning and thunder. His expression could not be seen clearly in the darkness, and only a low and clear male voice could be heard echoing on the deck: "I feel that three powerful chaos monsters that are close to the ultimate level are rapidly approaching... Robzek, is that the one you came up with? The first monster I encountered?"

The silver-haired paladin concentrated on sensing the aura in the distance, and then nodded solemnly: "Yes, it's them. They came so close under the cover of the black mist. There is no way to avoid them."

After finishing speaking, he turned to look at the soldier, and then said with a stunned expression: "Wait, Joshua, what are you doing?"

"Before the enemies arrive, kill the guy who put the black mist above your head first."

The warrior's body was surrounded by black and red fighting spirit flames, and the scorching temperature spread, even burning the deck of the Ark red. Heavy rain poured down, but before it had time to touch his body, it evaporated into water vapor from a distance.

Joshua's red eyes scanned the black mist and clouds in mid-air, as if he was searching for something. Soon after, his eyes were fixed and he seemed to have found the target: "I'll be back as soon as I go."

boom! ! !

Before he finished speaking, Joshua stepped heavily, and the deck beneath him collapsed. With a heart-wrenching creaking sound, he rose into the sky, pierced the mist in the air in a few seconds, and submerged into the pitch-black sky. Among the clouds.

Everyone on the deck had to summon up their energy and use spells to resist the sonic boom impact caused by the warriors breaking through the atmosphere. The entire Time Ark also tilted forward slightly, and a dark figure appeared on its thick deck. A large hole with radiating cracks spreading from its center.

"This guy... is really direct."

After removing the fighting spirit surrounding him, Rolanda smiled bitterly. He believed what the warrior said. There must be an enemy in the sky who released the black mist and was spying secretly. However, Joshua's fighting method of rushing out without any explanation was really terrible. It’s hard for people to adapt.

But Hei looked accustomed to it. She looked in the air at the huge fog hole created when her master left. She couldn't help but pursed her lips and secretly clenched her fists.

When Joshua left, he looked at her with eyes that seemed to say 'work hard'. Naturally, the black dragon girl would not disappoint her master's expectations.
