Su Lun guessed that there must be danger in the southeast where the snake tide pushed them, but he couldn't guess what danger it would be.
Tani and his mother's special sensory abilities had not detected any abnormality before, and he did not originally think it was a powerful sea monster.
But after hearing what Queen Medusa said, Su Lun felt that it was really possible.
If the sleeping time is long enough, the fish in the sea may not be able to detect the presence of the siren.
He pretended not to know, and asked through mental communication: "What kind of sea monster? How strong is it?"
Queen Medusa responded: "According to you humans, Sethus is a super-level sea monster. Now you can see the largest island in the southeast, which is its crest exposed on the sea. Two
More than a hundred years ago, a group of powerful human adventurers also awakened it from here, eventually causing a disaster that lasted for several months. This sea area is not as simple as you see, and there are many divine sea monsters here.
..."
"Super level?"
Su Lun's eyes twitched as he listened.
Looking at the island with a diameter of more than ten kilometers at the end of his field of vision, he was greatly surprised: This is actually a sea monster?
If it's just the back of the spine, how big must its body be?
A sea monster as big as Rington City?
With this size, no matter what level he is, he is almost invincible in this plane.
In addition to this, what surprised Su Lun was that from this tone, it seemed that she had experienced what happened more than two hundred years ago. So how long had Queen Medusa lived?
[By the way, the best app for reading and listening to books is Yeguo Reading, www. Install the latest version. 】
As one of the dominant advanced creatures in this sea area, the Gorgon family naturally has no need to tell lies.
Su Lun also chose to believe this statement.
However, the question remains, why would she remind herself of this human being?
It's obviously not because of kindness.
...
The efficiency of spiritual communication is very high. During this thought, Medusa sent another message: "You should also be heading for the [Mimir's Fountain], right? Then I can tell you, even if you survive this time
If you escape, you will never be able to get close to the Island of Giants. Because the only safe route to the Island of Giants is crossing the Moon Strait. But there are already many human magicians stationed there, and they have built many magic towers near the strait. You guys
Although the warship has many special things, the forbidden magic like before was released from there. Do you think you can force your way through?"
"..."
When Su Lun heard these words, he immediately found the location of "Moon Strait" in his mind.
Currently, the strongest magician from the God Plane who comes to the Alchemy Plane is only at the eighth level. If you want to release [Forbidden Curse·Light of Divine Punishment], you will definitely need the support of a magic tower.
The staff team had just calculated the direction of the magic release, which was consistent with this statement.
From now on, it seems that what Queen Medusa said is true.
Su Lun vaguely guessed her motives and asked again: "Why are you telling me this?"
Queen Medusa responded with only two words: "Cooperation."
"..."
Su Lun didn't understand what was going on.
Previously on the outskirts of Eklensa, the capital of the Silver Dragon King, he witnessed with his own eyes the Medusa Queen killing a very powerful high-level Gorgon.
Therefore, the Gorgon clan is not a monolith and has internal conflicts.
And now those Gorgons are helping people from the plane of gods to surround and kill the Dawn Group, so they have become enemies of the enemy again...
But not necessarily friends.
Su Lun was not dazzled by the "strong support" that came to the door, but acted very cautiously.
This Helen has experienced a catastrophe and became Queen Medusa. Legend has it that she has returned to her ancestors and become a true demigod.
Her arrogance is even worse than that of the dragons. Why would she cooperate with a human?
Su Lun did not agree rashly, but asked bluntly: "With all due respect, Your Majesty the Queen has completed the calamity. Now your strength is probably such that it is difficult to find an opponent in the entire plane. Why did you choose to cooperate with us?"
At least he is not an enemy at the moment, and he has enough respect for this being who stands at the top of the plane's combat power.
But as soon as I asked this question, I didn't get an answer for a long time.
As a demigod, Queen Medusa has her own pride, and she will never answer her unpleasant questions.
The exchange was silent for a few breaths.
Su Lun also guessed something through her reaction.
It seems that Queen Medusa has probably suffered a lot of losses at the hands of the magicians in the plane of gods.
Although the blood of demigods is strong, it is not necessarily stronger than those magicians with true gods behind them.
Although Su Lun was also curious about what kind of harm Medusa suffered, she also knew that this was definitely not the question.
And the more arrogant you are, the more you disdain lies.
What's more, Queen Medusa swore an oath to the Mother Earth and made an agreement of equality and non-aggression.
The probability of her taking the initiative to murder is slim.
Su Lun made a decision immediately and said directly without mentioning the topic just now: "We can cooperate! So, how does Her Majesty the Queen think we should cooperate?"
Although he only had two or three breaths, he had actually thought about it carefully. If the facts were true as Queen Medusa said, then cooperation was the only option for the Dawn Group.
Otherwise, even if they escape this time, they will have no chance to break through the heavily guarded Moon Strait and get close to the [Mimir's Spring].
Even if you teleport through the air, you may fall into some pre-set magic trap by the enemy.
What's more, for Su Lun, even if something unexpected happens, the situation cannot be worse than it is now.
...
Suellen chose to cooperate, and a spiritual message came from Queen Medusa: "You sail directly south, and I will help you drive away the tide of snakes, but it won't take too long, so you have to hurry up. The voyage is about five nautical miles.
It looks like there is an Elephant Trunk Island, and there is a gap in the cave that can lead to the edge of the plane's collapse. As long as you enter the gap, it will be enough for you to survive..."
When Su Lun heard this, he felt that if the Dawn Regiment wanted to survive, they didn't need anyone else to guide them.
But after thinking for a moment, he directly gave the command to the communicator of the Dawn Regiment: "Tani, change the course, let's sail southward!"
In the cab, Tali responded without any hesitation: "Yes!"
Su Lun continued: "All Gaozhan, prepare to fight. The logistics team is always ready to activate the Void Alchemy Array and listen to my instructions."
Everyone responded: "Yes!"
Everyone in the Dawn Regiment had no objections to Su Lun's order. Even if there was a tide of snakes in the south, the Evernight sailed straight towards it as soon as the sails were turned.
On the deck, the old sword god Bartolo and Senjou, several Gao Zhan with long-range attack capabilities, were already standing on the bow of the ship, and more than a dozen super-large-caliber main guns also turned their muzzles toward the south...
Looking at the tide of snakes that had completely covered the sea, everyone looked very solemn.
There were so many venomous snakes that they gathered in front of us like a high creeping wall, blocking the way.
But even with the Evernight's sudden change of course, the Gorgons controlling the tide of snakes were also confused by the actions of the Dawn Regiment.
But in an instant, they also gathered more venomous snakes to block the way south.
But probably because the old sword god Bartolo just killed a seventh-level gorgon with one sword, which was enough to shock them. At least when they rushed over, they didn't see any high-level gorgon coming to die.
.
As the distance got closer, everyone in the Dawn Group on the deck could clearly see the colorful and poisonous sea snakes. Even if they were wearing gas masks, everyone could smell the stench of filtered poisonous gas.
"Peng!"
"Peng!"
"Peng!"
"..."
The artillery continued to bombard and fire, exploding into clouds of flames among the snake race.
The close-in defense artillery also "click, click, click" like a torrential rain, pouring tons of alchemical bullets.
The venomous snakes in the distance were beaten to pieces in large areas, but they were quickly filled with venomous snakes coming from behind.
The Yongye was heading again at full speed. The two sides were facing this collision and were about to collide with each other.
On the mast, Su Lun frowned as he watched.
Just when he was ready to activate the alchemy array to teleport.
Sudden,
A bizarre scene happened.
The Evernight was like a dagger piercing the tide of snakes, but before the impact, there seemed to be an invisible barrier that pushed the tide of snakes away.
Su Lun clearly felt the arrival of a mysterious power similar to domineering force, causing the poisonous snakes that were about to hit the Evernight to avoid it in horror. In the blink of an eye, a wide channel was cut off in the sea of snakes.
Su Lun didn't know that it was Queen Medusa hiding in the dark who took action!
Ordinary Gorgons can control venomous snakes. As a queen, how could she not be able to?
Seeing that the passage was right in front of him, Su Lun gave the order without delay.
The alchemy sails on the Eternal Night instantly lit up, the wind roared, and the huge black-sailed warship drew a white wolf on the sea like a speedboat, quickly rushing into the snake channel.
...
After going deep into the snake group, Su Lun was even more amazed.
There are probably hundreds of millions of venomous snakes in the sea and on the surface of the sea.
However, the Yongye's sudden charge also caught the enemy by surprise. Seeing them charging over just now, the Gorgons thought they were going to fight to the death. After all, there were top experts on board, and they also had some scruples, so they thought
I used low-level poisonous snakes to consume them first, and didn't want to confront them head-on.
Unexpectedly, instead of being able to stop the black-sailed warship, their swarm of venomous snakes actually gave way to a path?
At the same time, the eighth-level Gorgon who had been hiding among the snakes asked why she didn't understand what was going on, and said angrily: "Damn it! How could she help a group of humans?"
However, by the time it was discovered, it was already too late.
Su Lun's decision was decisive enough, and the Eternal Night, which was unimpeded, took off at a very fast speed. Before the Gorgons hiding in the distance could rush over, the battleship had already rushed out of the Sea of Snakes.
As soon as the dawn group passed, the snake tide that had separated just now immediately closed up.
But in the blink of an eye, the snake tide changed its direction and started chasing again, and the two sides once again became a chase and an escape.
Although the situation is much better than when they were encircled just now, if the Yongye keeps running like this, there is a high probability that it will not be able to escape.
But at this time, Su Lun had already seen an elephant trunk island appearing in his field of vision.
With his perception extended, he also clearly sensed the strong spatial fluctuations in the cave under the island.
"Space gap? There is actually such a place..."
Su Lun rolled his eyes.
If you weren't a local snake, you really wouldn't know about this kind of place.
There are usually space turbulence near space cracks, which is an extremely dangerous place for other people. If you accidentally get involved in the space turbulence, you don't know where you will be exiled.
But for Suellen, who has the [Ouroboros Space-Time Circle], this is actually a "convenient location".
He also knows why Queen Medusa asked him to come here. This is indeed a good place to hide.
Looking at the dark cave in the distance, the Yongye plunged in without hesitation.
...
After entering the cave, the surrounding light suddenly dimmed.
The creepy feeling of being stared at by those billions of venomous snakes disappeared instantly.
Everyone in the Dawn Group breathed an inexplicable sigh of relief.
Only then did everyone dare to open their eyes.
This cave is very magical. The space inside is much larger than it looks from the outside. Above the head is a wet rock wall like stalactites, and there is a faint fluorescence all around, which is some luminous algae.
Looking down, the sea water is very clear, and the fish in the water are swimming among the fluorescent aquatic plants.
Like an underground river, the direction of the water flow is actually towards the bottom of the cave.
Su Lun sensed the surrounding space. It was indeed like an underground river below. The space was quite small, and there were obviously chaotic spatial fluctuations.
"What the hell is this place?"
He looked around and saw nothing interesting.
However, I discovered that the flow of the underground river seemed to be in the direction of the Hell Volcano.
Fortunately, as soon as they entered the cave, the tide of snakes chasing behind them seemed to be afraid of something and did not catch up again.
The Evernight drifted along the river all the way to the underground river.
Even without the need to remind, everyone on board was paying close attention to the surrounding environment.
This cave is full of mystery. Since those Gorgons dare not catch up, there is a problem no matter how you look at it.
Su Lun is looking for something.
After all, it was Queen Medusa who guided them here.
Instead of groping around on your own, it's better to ask directly.
Holding the black umbrella in his hand, he unleashed all his strength, and soon he felt a familiar soul wave rushing in from the entrance of the cave.
Just now Medusa helped the Dawn Group, but was also attacked.
Su Lun did not dare to go directly to see "Helen" who might easily petrify him. The black crow flapped its wings and flew towards the direction of the soul fluctuation.
Not long after, on a dark reef, he saw the figure covered in black robes through the black crow's vision.
The black crow spoke human words: "Your Majesty the Queen, thank you for your help."
Su Lun thought about being polite first, so he said something polite.
However, the cloaked man did not accept this. She snorted coldly: "Human beings are really hypocritical. You don't have to doubt that I will harm you. Since I choose to cooperate, I will naturally abide by my promise."
Su Lun didn't take it seriously at all.
It is reasonable for such top-level beings to have their own pride and temper.
Queen Medusa seemed to see through his concerns and explained directly: "This is the edge of the collapse of the plane. The battle in ancient times shattered the plane. A high-ranking god and apprentice repaired the broken parts of the plane, but
Because the plane collapsed too completely, the repair was not perfect, and the air of hell overflowed, so that's why you see the volcano outside, and these plane gaps hidden under the sea..."
Su Lun's current space laws can easily understand this.
In layman's terms, it is the sequelae left over from ancient battlefields to this day.
Medusa did not mention the origin of this place and continued: "If you want to go to the Island of Giants to find [Mimir's Spring], you can get there from here without risking crossing the Moon Strait. And you can rest assured.
, that kind of thing is a treasure to humans, but it is of no use to me, the Gorgon clan. Besides, the Cyclops are also descendants of divine blood, so they are not easy to provoke, and I have no interest in making enemies with them..."
When Su Lun heard this, he was more inclined to believe it.
After all, it has been countless years since the Gorgon clan was really interested in that spring water, and they should have fought you to the death.
Of course, he also caught another clue from these words: the cyclops are very powerful!
Black Crow continued to ask: "So, how does Her Majesty the Queen need us to cooperate? In other words, what do we need to pay to get your help."
In the eyes of alchemists, equivalent exchange is the most reasonable natural law.
So does cooperation.
Su Lun didn't expect to take advantage of this person at all.
He guessed that Queen Medusa had most likely been beaten, so he asked tactfully.
But unexpectedly, the cloaked man in front of him directly expressed his need for cooperation: "Those human magicians have an artifact projection in their hands, which limits my ability. You saw it just now, and they are now allied with the same people who betrayed me.
, occupying the temple of my Gorgon clan. So I also need an ally."
"Artifact projection?"
When Su Lun heard this, his heart skipped a beat.
It's easy to talk about other things, but those involving gods are not so easy to touch.
Cooperation is possible.
Death is not an option.
Queen Medusa looked at Su Lun's caution and sneered again, saying: "Don't worry. That thing has a great influence on me. But it is basically useless to you. So you don't have to worry too much."
Black Crow asked directly: "Can I take the liberty to ask, what is the specific function of the artifact projection?"
Su Lun is not afraid of retreating. After all, the plane of gods is a mortal enemy and will have to be faced sooner or later.
But if you can grasp the enemy's methods in advance, your chances of winning future battles will be greater.
Medusa was obviously unhappy when she heard this questioning tone, but after pondering for a moment, she still responded to Suellen's words: "That is a shield that is immune to any magic."
So that’s it.
Upon hearing this effect, Su Lun immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
This was obviously used specifically to target Queen Medusa.
Immune to all magic, the petrification curse is naturally immune as well.
No wonder I suffered a loss.
The strongest thing about the Gorgon clan is their petrification curse. Once this method is restrained, their actual combat power is not very powerful at the same level.
At this time, Queen Medusa said again: "I have already said what needs to be said. The content of the cooperation is that I need you to help deal with those magicians, at least to restrict their use of the artifact projection. As for those of the same race who betrayed me
, you don’t have to worry about it. In exchange, I will guide you to the Giant Island. Of course, if you help me enough, I will also give you enough treasures and ancient treasures that you humans need..."
When Su Lun, who was far away on the ship, heard this, his expression lit up and he immediately responded: "Yes. But you must sign a contract! We will try our best to help you within our ability."
Merely as a guide to the Island of the Giants, this transaction condition is not too attractive.
But this sea area is an ancient battlefield. What is the most indispensable thing?
Of course they are various treasures left over from ancient times!
The Gorgon clan has survived in this sea area for countless years and must have collected countless treasures.
Maybe there are some treasures...
After all, equipment, cursed objects, training techniques, etc. are probably no different from stones to Queen Medusa.
But for the alchemical formulas like Su Lun and others, the treasures passed down from the glorious alchemical civilization era of Dawn are definitely good things.
What's more, having such an ally to deal with the magicians in the plane of gods is also a great help to the Dawn Group.
There is nothing to hesitate about anymore.
Queen Medusa listened to Su Lun's words and said nothing, and she agreed by default.
...
The covenant was signed smoothly.
This is an equal covenant, in which both parties do not harm each other, and there are no coercive clauses.
Within the scope of the contract, both parties do their best to help each other.
However, seeing the signing of the covenant go so smoothly, Su Lun was a little surprised.
I thought there would be some scheming and the like clauses.
I didn't think so at all.
He felt that this "Helen" probably didn't know how strong the Dawn Group was, but even if it was strong, it shouldn't be anything in her eyes.
After all, Bartolo, who has the highest rank on the ship, is only at the eighth level, which is a big step behind her, and his strength is also much worse.
But she still chose the equality covenant.
This obviously feels like "lowering one's worth".
Moreover, there are many powerful intelligent races in this sea area, and she has more choices for cooperation. Why did she choose humans like the Dawn Group to cooperate?
After the contract was signed and everything was correct with the Omniscient Eye, Suellen finally dared to go and see Queen Medusa in person.
He teleported and appeared on the icy reef.
Out of etiquette and covenant needs, he naturally came in person to invite this ally to the ship.
Queen Medusa did not refuse the invitation, and the two of them walked on the water.
As they walked, Su Lun asked in a casual tone: "Your Majesty the Queen, I have a question. Can I ask you a question?"
Queen Medusa didn't respond, but she didn't refuse either.
Su Lun found that there was no need to beat around the bush in front of high-level beings, so he simply asked directly, "I mean, our strength shouldn't be too strong in front of you, not even as good as those magicians. Why did you choose to fight with us?"
cooperate?"
Hearing this question, Queen Medusa still walked forward silently, her snake scale tail swimming on the water, making ripples in circles.
The atmosphere was slightly chilly.
Su Lun thought he wouldn't get a response, so he shrugged and didn't take it seriously.
Unexpectedly, Queen Medusa responded with something that seemed to be irrelevant to the question: "This sea area was once the battlefield of the gods. It is impossible for humans without legendary destiny to get out alive."
