Chapter 382 Sea Ruins(1/3)
The legend of the "North Sea Monster" has been circulating in the waters north of Luying for at least a thousand years.
Maybe it's not the current one, maybe it's this group of titan octopuses.
But Su Lun also had to admit that such a big man was really at the top of the food chain in the sea.
Fifty mechanical octopuses are enough to destroy a fleet of dozens of warships, but in the fight with this guy, they didn't get any advantage at all, and several of them were scrapped one after another. If they really want to continue to wear out the mechanical octopus army until the end,
There is also the possibility that the entire army will be annihilated.
Fortunately, the "Thief King" Merdis and Princess Stika ran away, so Suellen could free up his hands.
Together with Dr. Banks, he tried various methods including poisoning and soul attacks for quite a long time before finally trapping the big guy and then using the winches on the three battleships to pull him up, wasting all his strength.
Then it was stuffed into the "small void world".
Su Lun has always wanted to catch a giant octopus to make a super-large mechanical octopus, but the octopus sold in the market is far from meeting the demand.
This Kraken just fell asleep and hit the pillow.
It is of Titan bloodline and an overlord-level creature. Not only its size, vitality, but also its growth rate far exceed expectations.
Simply the most ideal material.
But Su Lun also has the ability to capture this giant sea monster.
Dr. Banks also has a strong interest in this ancient bloodline creature. He took a lot of blue blood and body tissue samples for research.
He said that in the future, there might be an opportunity to extract the "Titan genes" from the blood to create an [Atavism Potion], and there might be a chance to artificially cultivate this kind of "Titan Octopus".
Not necessarily as strong as this one, but at least much bigger than an ordinary octopus.
Once it can be cultivated artificially, its properties will be completely different.
Su Lun feels that the future is promising.
There really are thirty-five lucky mechanical octopuses. Not to mention the sail battleships, even the giant steel ships like Marfa are capable of fighting.
However, the unit price of a small octopus is over 100 million liso, and the cost of modifying a mechanical octopus of this size is estimated to be astronomical.
Su Lun didn't think too much about it for the time being, and just took it one step at a time.
No matter what, it can be considered a big gain.
Of course, the price paid is not small.
The few arrows that forced Princess Shuangyue away just now consumed about one-tenth of the [Sands of Time], which is of immeasurable value.
Fortunately, besides this "North Sea Monster", there are some other gains
Su Lun and some people from the Dawn Regiment were catching octopus, while people from the other two boats went to salvage the previously sunk "Pulsatilla" and the loot of several pirate groups.
Because they were covered by artillery, all five ships were beaten to pieces. There were a lot of wood chips, treasure chests, and barrels floating on the sea.
Of course, there are some survivors.
When Su Lun finished capturing the "Kraken" here, the salvage work over there was still going on.
A large amount of treasures were picked up one after another and sent back to the battleship, where they piled up on the deck.
"Hahaha, the loot this time is not lost to our rounds of artillery shells!"
"Yes. I have never seen many of these treasures before. This top-quality [seven-color gemstone], I heard in Roman was also a 'divine object' enshrined in the Agaparnon Temple. Wow, this is an eye-opener."
"Mr. Sullen, look, is this the [Hand of the Void God of Chronos] you mentioned? Wow, there are several space treasures."
""
Su Lun looked at the treasures being picked up one by one, with joy on his face.
The legendary quality [Hand of the Void God of Kronos] was indeed on the ship as expected. It happened to be floating on the sea in a treasure chest, and the first batch was fished out.
Upon inspection, it turned out that this is indeed an alchemy cultivation outfit that is very compatible with Qianjou. After fusion, it can give people an extremely exaggerated ability to "penetrate both objects and demons". This is definitely a qualitative improvement in combat power for light swordsmen.
.In the future, against heavy armor professionals, the damage of slashing attacks will also be greatly increased.
There is no need to doubt the quality of the breeding equipment. Instead, we need to consider whether the curse characteristics are too strong and the fusion of thousands of strips will cause distortion.
After picking up this treasure, Su Lun breathed a sigh of relief.
This time they chased the "Pulsatilla", and their original purpose was for this treasure.
But gradually, Su Lun's eyes gradually became solemn as he looked at the increasingly exaggerated treasures piled up on the deck.
[Heroic Spirit of the Brave], [Quicksand Crystal of the Muse], [Golden Wheat Ears of Frey, the Fertility God]
These are all treasures of the same level as the [Golden Fleece] seized before, and almost every one of them is related to ancient myths.
Obviously, these are the sacrifices offered to the sea by the guys at the Temple of Agaparthenon.
But now it was intercepted and salvaged by them.
Su Lun frowned as he looked at it.
It can also be confirmed by the sacrificial objects that the standards of this sacrifice are frighteningly high.
what does it feel like
It's probably like you originally just wanted to rob the rich and give to the poor, but unexpectedly ended up robbing the emperor who was visiting privately incognito.
There are too many treasures, which makes people feel uneasy.
This made Su Lun feel more and more that there was a big problem with the sacrifice.
At this moment, Lolotta, Karma and Tani came back happily in the assault boat. From a distance, they waved their hands and shouted: "Mr. Sullen, we have captured the one you want alive."
!”
The three people got the person on the boat. She was a wet priestess wearing a magic-forbidden bracelet. She had blond hair, blue eyes, a high nose, and a standard romantic beauty.
Lolotta was still talking excitedly about the process of capturing the prisoner of war just now, "This person is hiding deep in the sea and keeps sinking for some reason. If it weren't for Tani, we wouldn't have been able to find her."
Tani also looked arrogant, like a child waiting to be praised.
Su Lun listened and praised the three of them: "Well, you did a good job."
Probably seeing that Su Lun was the talker of the Dawn Group, the priest raised his head and glared with vicious eyes, saying: "You outsiders have blasphemed the Poseidon and angered the Poseidon. You will be punished. You are our Romans."
enemy!"
Su Lun frowned when he heard this. Hearing this, he didn't think it was a verbal threat.
He was assassinated by the [Golden Divine Spear] in the city before, this time the "Alcatraz Treasure", and the current sacrificial activities, the Agapanaon Temple played a key role behind the scenes.
He didn't want to kill the prisoner, but it looked like he wanted to get the information he wanted from her.
Without any hesitation, Su Lun raised his hand and pulled it, and a blood line immediately appeared on the neck of the beautiful priestess in front of him.
The vitality quickly passed from her face, and the head fell to the deck with a clang, blood gushing out like a fountain.
Blood sprayed on the faces of Lolotta and the three of them. Each of them had a little doubt in their eyes. They didn't realize why Su Lun suddenly started killing people.
Su Lun didn't explain. The shadow of the God of Death appeared behind him and swallowed up the "gray mist" on the corpse.
"You stripped away the soul of 'Allun'"
"You have gained some historical secrets about the Temple of Agaparthenon."
"You have received a piece of information: half a year ago, the high priest predicted that 'there will be a foreign puppet master who will bring disaster to the Roman Kingdom.'"
"You have obtained the information: 'The Living Sea Sacrifice can bring good luck to Roman Kingdom and obtain the blessing of the sea god; no one can come out alive, they will stay in the sea ruins forever. This time it attracts those outside adventurers to hunt for treasures
, Master Neptune will definitely be very satisfied with so many fresh souls, which will bring Roman stability to the sea in the next few decades.'"
"You have obtained: '[Golden Spear] can only be used by Onis Popov. He is a handsome and charming man, a born hero. Oh, he has close relationships with other priests in the temple,
I am no exception'"
"You got the information: 'Princess Stika heard that there was a [Fragment of Ouroboros] on Alcatraz Island, and she wanted to use a sacrifice to exchange for that treasure from Sea King Drake.'"
「」
Searching for keywords, Su Lun instantly solved all the doubts in his mind.
Very informative!
Once digested, it made him feel very painful again.
It turns out that the person who shot him with the [Golden Divine Spear] in the city before was Oleg's second son, Onis Popov.
Similar to the erotic rumors circulating in the outside world, this guy is the son of Oleg and Helvier, the high priest of the Agapanaon Temple.
Of course, gossip like "the two spent seven days and seven nights in the temple" is not important.
What Su Lun was more concerned about was that the reason why the guy shot him was really because of an inexplicable "prophecy".
Isn't this causal relationship reversed?
You don't need to poke me with your spear, I'm too lazy to pay attention to you
This bridge has been forged.
But Su Lun felt that this female priest might not have grasped the whole truth.
The prophecy was uttered by the "high priest", and only she knew what was predicted.
