The six assisting sailors used all their strength to lift a huge cannonball.
The cannonball is generally a cylinder, with the front end made into a hemisphere, and the whole body exudes a pale golden brilliance.
The long cylindrical cannonball is the Bird Boy Cloud Mushroom shell.
This cannonball exudes a gold-level aura, and it is obviously made from unusual materials.
The cannonballs were stuffed into the breech by the sailors.
This peculiar artillery is called a winding anti-aircraft gun. It is tens of meters long and has a complete barrel. It circles the central ship building several times and finally places the muzzle on the roof of the ship.
This winding anti-aircraft gun has undergone a certain degree of alchemical transformation, and its appearance is consistent with the Huashelou ship. The muzzle is a wide-open snake mouth, the gun body is a slender and thick python, and the ammunition-loading breech is also made into the tail of a python.
Thousands of shields are added to the entire surface of the snake-shaped cannon, layered on top of each other, completely covering the cannon body and playing a good defensive role.
"Close the breech and start the labyrinth anti-aircraft gun." The main gunner is in the central building of the ship, operating the alchemy device, which is a gun cabin specially configured for the labyrinth anti-aircraft gun.
A large amount of mana was deployed from the mana pool of the Huashelou Ship and filled into the winding anti-aircraft gun.
The barrel of the anti-aircraft gun began to tremble slightly, and at the same time it made a snake-like hissing sound.
The two auxiliary gunners respectively placed their hands on the snake's tail, deployed their own fighting spirit, and controlled the Bird Boy Cloud Mushroom bombs.
This gold-level cannonball started slowly, starting from the snake's tail and gradually accelerating along the tight spiral rifling in the barrel.
When it followed the snake-shaped gun body and circled the ship, the main gunner heard the monotonous sound of the alchemy device: "First-level acceleration completed."
When the cannonball circled for the second time, the alchemy device sounded again: "Second-level acceleration completed."
soon.
"Level 3 acceleration completed."
The main gunner roared: "Fire!"
After three levels of acceleration, the golden cannonball's rate of fire increased to an astonishing level. It turned into a black shadow and shot out from the muzzle. In two seconds, it quickly rose to a high altitude, directly exceeding the height of the sea surface.
1000 meters.
After Bird Boy's cloud mushroom bomb reaches the highest point, it begins to fall.
At this time, steel wings popped up on both sides of its gun body.
A pair of steel wings vibrated continuously in the air, making a noise like birdsong.
Chirp——!
As the cannonballs were aimed at the ghost ship and swooped down, the chirping of birds was also elongated, making people's hearts tense and their hair numb.
On the deck of the ghost ship, everyone changed their colors.
Crying Wind whispered: "It's not good, we must intercept it!"
Ship Ghost's ghost ship is silver-level, while Sea Snake's warp anti-aircraft cannon and Bird's Cloud Mushroom are both gold-level.
If we really want to hit the ghost ship, the consequences will be disastrous!
Before Crying Wind reminded them, the three mages had already taken action.
Qingxin sent out a huge wind blade.
The little prince pulled out his left index finger and threw it violently.
The index finger turned into a bone spear in the air.
Cang Xu took out a incomplete magic book.
This is the water magic book he and Zidi bought at the Double Eye Island auction.
There are only three pages left in the magic book, but they are all gold-level water spells.
Cang Xu's soul has a heavy burden, and the speed and success rate of casting spells are very low. In an emergency, he can only use this trump card.
The page in the magic book immediately fell apart and turned into a puddle of fine dust, which was blown away by the wind.
A water arrow was generated out of thin air and aimed at Bird Boy Cloud Mushroom.
Qingxin's huge wind blade was the fastest. It collided with the golden cannonball first. As a result, the former smashed into little green lights, which only slightly slowed down the dive speed of the cannonball.
The little prince's bone spear is of extraordinary quality and is a proper silver grade. It is not a spell, but a magic prop that is usually shrunk and disguised as a finger.
But the bone spear did not hit Bird Boy's cloud mushroom bullet.
At the critical moment, Bird Boy Yungu Bomb actually raised his body slightly and took the initiative to avoid the bone spear!
Gold-level artillery shells are of course not only powerful, they also have excellent design.
Since the Bird Boy Cloud Mushroom projectile is designed as an anti-aircraft artillery shell, its trajectory presents a huge parabola, giving the enemy more time to intercept.
Taking this into consideration, when the alchemist made this kind of cannonball, he also gave it some detailed internal settings to give it a certain avoidance ability.
"Can you still avoid it?" The little prince was shocked and quickly used his mind to control the bone spear to turn back.
But how can the speed of bone spears be compared to golden cannonballs?
For a moment, the little prince could only watch helplessly as the cannonball quickly shook off the bone spear.
Cang Xu used the magic book. According to common sense, his water arrow technique should be the first to take shape.
But his mental state was really bad, and in actual combat, he fell directly to the last place.
"It's up to me." Cang Xu saw that neither Qing Xin nor the little prince had made any achievements. He was so nervous that he held his breath and mobilized his mental power with all his strength.
Under his control, the water arrow collided with the golden cannonball.
Bird Boy's cloud mushroom bullet's steel wings were slightly turned up, and he wanted to repeat his old trick to avoid the water arrow technique.
However, the water arrow technique is controlled by Cang Xu's mind. Cang Xu had already been mentally prepared and immediately mobilized the water arrow technique to change the flight direction.
boom.
The water arrow successfully collided with the golden cannonball.
The speed of the golden cannonball dropped sharply, and the hemispherical warhead at the front was destroyed by the water arrow and fell vertically to the sea below.
It eventually fell into the sea.
boom!
There was a loud noise and the shell finally exploded in the sea.
The violent explosion set off a towering water column. After the huge water column, which was more than ten meters high, fell, the huge white waves that were created swept across the surroundings.
The ghost ship sinks and floats on the waves.
On the deck, the Necromancer and others were in shock and terrified.
The little prince patted his chest: "What a close call. Fortunately, we intercepted it."
The bone spear he had thrown earlier flew back and was caught by the little prince.
The little prince shouted again: "Help, help, Lord Shipgui!"
It was exactly the same as the cry for help he made when he was in danger on the River Styx.
Cang Xu couldn't help but look sideways, thinking: Why is the little prince's gesture of calling for help so skillful?
The next moment, the weak voice of the ship ghost came: "A golden water ghost was brought back by us, and I am working hard to suppress it."
"In a short period of time, we can no longer travel to the underworld."
"The reserves of the mana pool have reached the warning level."
"Next, I'm going to use the Ghost Mist Technique. You all hide in the cabin and try to buy some time."
If the ship ghost uses the underworld walking spell again, the ghost ship will return to the River Styx.
Facing the gold-level water ghost group again will definitely be a disaster.
Even if you have to gamble on the possibility that the water ghosts will disperse, the ghost ship cannot return to the underworld.
Because the mana consumption of cross-dimensional teleportation is very terrifying, traveling on the River Styx also consumes a lot of mana.
The ghost ship's mana is seriously insufficient.
If you go to the underworld again, you won't have enough mana to return to the main world.
Their ending will be to barely travel a certain distance in the River Styx, with their mana completely exhausted. The ghost ship will be fully eroded by negative energy, and will eventually be assimilated into the ecosystem of the River Styx.
Huashelou ship number.
The sea snake girl witnessed the entire process of the first shell being intercepted. Her expression remained unchanged and she ordered: "Continue firing."
The opponent cast a gold-level spell, so it was reasonable for Bird Boy's Cloud Mushroom Bomb to be intercepted.
The advantage of the strong is also reflected in this.
If you are a gold-level mage, you will have a high success rate in using magic to intercept such shells. What the mage pays is only the consumption of mana and mental energy.
After a while, it will recover on its own.
The cost is too low!
On the other hand, a shell fired by Sea Snake Girl would cost hundreds of gold coins, including the purchase price of the shell, the cost of maintaining the anti-aircraft gun, and the mana consumption.
But the sea snake girl was unmoved and still ordered to fire.
Just because the interception was successful the first time, it does not mean that the interception will be successful the second time and the third time.
Even if she could succeed every time, she would be happy.
This is tantamount to her using money to throw away the opponent's mana.
The recovery of mana takes time, or requires recovery potions, which consumes the enemy's war potential.
Soon, the second Bird Boy Cloud Mushroom bomb was successfully loaded.
But just when the warp anti-aircraft guns were about to be activated, thick fog rose around the ghost ship.
The dense fog expanded rapidly, completely covering the ghost ship.
The main gunner quickly reported: "Commander, we have lost the target."
The sea snake girl snorted coldly: "This is the ghost mist technique. The advantages of the undead school still exist, and conventional investigation methods will fail. Forget it, stop launching."
After the sea snake girl finished speaking, she couldn't help but laugh out loud.
She looked back at the shadow.
The golden fighter crossed his arms and leaned against the wall. The captain's cabin was brightly lit, but there were thick shadows surrounding him.
The sea snake girl said to him: "It seems we are lucky. The ghost ship was obviously forced out. The danger of the Styx is immeasurable."
"Now they are obviously trying to stall for time. If we seize this opportunity, we can complete this task."
"Then what are you waiting for?" As soon as Weiying finished speaking, his body quickly disappeared along with the surrounding shadows.
Cang Xu hid in the cabin.
But this cabin couldn't bring him any sense of security.
He sensed that the ghost ship was sailing and was far away from its previous location.
But this is far from enough.
After all, the range of the ghost mist technique is limited, and the opponent has a large number of people.
As time goes by, they will be found.
What Cang Xu is most afraid of is the mysterious fighter in black, and the second is Sea Snake Girl's gold-level magic pet.
If anyone comes to their door, the necromancers will be in trouble.
"Once the war starts, I will be the most dangerous." Cang Xu's real level is only the Black Iron level.
"Combat power, I need combat power!" Cang Xu's mouth was dry and his heart was filled with a strong desire to improve his combat power.
With every increase in combat power, his chances of survival are greater.
But how to improve?
Faced with this problem, Cang Xu fell into rapid thinking.
Although he has acquired a lot of undead inheritance, these brand-new spells require time to become familiar with and practice before he can successfully cast them.
If you cast a spell rashly, you are likely to fail and suffer horrific backlash.
"calm."
"Don't take too many risks, it's almost suicide."
Cang Xu thought for a moment, but was unable to do anything, and a trace of despair emerged in his heart.
