There is no answer to this kind of question, because everything depends on the opponent's offensive, and the situation is not in their hands.
What is surprising is that just when Caesar was ready to respond to the attack at any time, the situation was quiet for more than three minutes.
The Vidal sailed towards the direction of the Monyach at full speed, and everyone on board was on alert, wary of another attack from the Dragon King.
However, after falling into the water, Dragon King Norton seemed to have disappeared without making any movement.
"Dragon King has finished warming up and gone home to sleep?"
On the deck, Fingel scratched his head and asked doubtfully.
"No! He hasn't left yet!"
Caesar looked at the surrounding environment warily, feeling even more uneasy.
The fog is getting thicker and thicker!
He had been monitoring the heartbeat inside the ship. If Norton hadn't deliberately suppressed his own heartbeat, then he probably wasn't on the ship.
But not being on the ship doesn't mean that he can't follow the ship. Although he is in a human body, he is a dragon after all, so it is not impossible for him to burst out at a speed that can keep up with the Vidal.
Time passed minute by minute, the fog became thicker little by little, but the Dragon King's attack was delayed.
The unsettled feeling made Caesar concentrate harder, trying to anticipate the Dragon King's attack.
At this moment, Fingel suddenly started shouting again.
"Wait! What is that?"
Patsy and Caesar immediately raised their heads and looked in the direction indicated by Fingel.
A tall and slender body swam dozens of meters away from the ship, parting a narrow waterline. His speed actually kept up with the speed of the Vidal!
What kind of creature is this that has such a huge body?
Recalling what Bronze City planned to decrypt for them before the mission began, Caesar looked solemn.
Apart from the dragon servant that Xia Mi killed before, are there any other dragon servants?
While thinking, he couldn't help but glance at Fingel in surprise. He didn't expect that this guy looked like a loser, but he had such a good look.
"What to do next, get rid of this guy, or continue in a straight line?"
the first mate asked anxiously.
If we travel on a zigzag route, we may be able to get rid of this dragon attendant, but the encounter with the Monyach will inevitably be delayed.
If you continue in a straight line, it may cause the Dragon King and Dragon Server to attack you from both sides.
Both options can be said to be a narrow escape from death.
"Keep going in a straight line!"
After some thought, Caesar made a decision.
The current situation can only be improved by two S-class people.
After ordering the first officer to be in charge of the route and to give priority to meeting with Su Mo and the others no matter what, Caesar directed Passi, Fingel, and other combatants to pick up sniper rifles and shoot at the figure in the thick fog.
.
These alchemical bullets may be ineffective against the scales of the first generation species, but they are still effective against the scales of the second generation species and below.
There was nothing wrong with his choice. Under the volley of alchemy bullets, the slender dragon shadow let out a painful roar.
However, such behavior angered Norton again.
He died and was resurrected as many as seven times today, and all the power in his body was squeezed out by Su Mo. Under such circumstances, would anyone dare to do something to the pet he just cultivated?
It’s simply asking for death!
Originally, he wanted to try and cooperate, but now it seems that there is no way to overwhelm these guys without showing absolute power!
Just when Caesar and the others were fighting happily, a high-pitched chant sounded, even suppressing the roar of the guns.
The invisible spirit of speech opened up, bringing the entire ship into the realm.
The metal somewhere made a clicking sound, as if it was suddenly on the verge of breaking.
Gritty twisting sounds sounded one after another, as if the entire ship was playing a fierce symphony.
The entire deck suddenly began to shake, making Caesar and the others unable to maintain their balance and almost rolling to the ground.
The deck was obviously made of steel, but it was causing amazing fluctuations like a liquid.
"Word Spirit Sword Control! Dragon King Norton is using his Word Spirit to manipulate metal!"
Norma immediately analyzed the voice corresponding to the chanting sound.
The King of Bronze and Fire is the Dragon King who has the power over metal and flames, and more than 90% of the weapons used by Caesar and the others to deal with this Dragon King are made of metal.
In the case of a professional counterpart, even if Norton only has the power of the next generation, with his understanding of the spirit, he can dismantle it as he wants.
I have to say that this arrangement of the secret party is a bit hard to complain about.
When using metal weapons to fight against the King of Bronze and Fire, have you really not considered the possibility of counterattack by the opponent?
However, considering that most modern weapons and equipment rely on metal, even the Gattuso family cannot be wealthy enough to build a ship with alchemical metals, so the choice of the Vidal is helpless.
You can't always choose a wooden boat to circumvent the weakness of metal. Otherwise, it will be defeated by fire and you won't be able to move faster.
"boom--!!"
After the high-pitched chant reached its peak, what happened was an unprecedented violent explosion.
Like a detonated grenade, the metal fragments exploded directly and ejected in all directions. The Vidal's keel was completely broken, and the entire bottom of the ship collapsed. Even the deck was hit by a huge earthquake. If it hadn't been in time,
If you use your belt to secure yourself, many crew members will be blown away.
"Captain! The engine, watertight compartment...all were destroyed."
The chief engineer said with a bitter tone.
Just now, they were secretly happy that half of the watertight cabins had been preserved. Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, all the remaining watertight cabins were destroyed.
In fact, he didn't need to report it, he could see this with just the naked eye.
A large amount of river water is pouring into the hull of the Vidal. According to this trend, within half an hour, this ship, which is much more advanced than the Monyach, will be completely destroyed and sink to the bottom of the Yangtze River reservoir.
In this doomed situation, they couldn't even take self-rescue measures.
Because, compared to the destruction of the ship's hull, there are more terrifying enemies waiting for them.
"Master, look!"
Patsy suddenly spoke out and pointed to the side in the direction of the suspected dragon creature.
The storm caused by the huge explosion blew away the fog, so the visibility suddenly became much higher. Caesar soon saw the appearance of the dragon attendant, which looked like a huge black catfish.
Compared with the Dragon Attendant mentioned in the Bronze City Plan, this giant catfish is much smaller in size. Its total length is estimated to be only about nine meters, and its sense of coercion is also much weaker.
"This one may not be a pure blood dragon, but a dragon blood subspecies."
Norma came to a conclusion after comparing and scanning the photo gallery.
"Is it just the dragon blood subspecies..."
Caesar nodded, no wonder its scales were so fragile before.
However, he was more concerned about another thing than this black catfish.
"What is Norton doing?"
The figure covered in blue-gray scales is currently riding on the head of the giant black catfish. He wears a bronze mask with red lines on his face. The style is exactly the same as the mask worn by Constantine in the information, but the patterns are slightly different.
"I don't know, but I guess it's not a good thing."
Norma said calmly.
As soon as he finished speaking, Norton leaned over and inserted his hand directly into the head of the black catfish. His hand was like hot lava, destroying the brain tissue of the dragon blood subspecies.
The dragon blood subspecies did not have the loyalty of the dragon attendant. It tried desperately to resist, and even wanted to turn around and bite Norton, but Norton quickly killed him.
The golden boy of the black catfish suddenly went out and the whole fish floated on the water.
Then, Norton dived directly into the hideous wound he had made.
"What are you doing, rebelling in the nest?"
Caesar was shocked and asked in confusion.
"No, it looks more like fusion. Based on my experience. Generally, the attack power and defense power of monsters will increase after fusion."
Fingel talked about it based on his own experience of playing Yu-Gi-Oh!
As soon as he finished speaking, the golden boy of the black catfish opened up again, a hundred times more ferocious than before!
So, he complained with great resentment.
"Norma, your crow's mouth has taken effect, so now should you tell us what to do? Don't say you can't help it!"
Unlike before, the Vidal is now completely paralyzed.
Without its engine, it can only float quietly on the water. No, without its watertight cabin, it can't even float. Now it is sinking inch by inch.
The sinking of a huge ship of this size was very quiet at first, and it even gave people the illusion that they could survive by climbing to the top and swimming out at the end.
However, anyone with sailing experience or a relatively sophisticated reader knows that after such a ship sinks completely, due to the internal cavity, a huge whirlpool will be rolled up in the end, taking everything floating on the sea with it.
Wrapped into the bottom of the sea, even a lifeboat cannot withstand the suction force if it is too close.
If you want to survive, you must swim out from now on, but with the Dragon King here, no one dares to go into the water.
"I'm sorry, Student Fingel, my crow's mouth can only tell you a worse news. Since the Vidal has stopped moving, the rendezvous time of the Monyach will be extended to eight minutes. Well, now is the second time.
Five minutes, three minutes left, and you will be rescued."
Norma's voice was still calm, but why did she sound angry?
"Three minutes...Dear Miss Norma, is there any way that Caesar and the others can resist the Dragon King for three minutes?"
Fingel immediately gave up and asked tremblingly.
He saw Norton riding a giant black catfish, staring at them eagerly, and chanting an inexplicable spirit.
Although I don’t know what kind of spirit spirit it is, looking at the Dragon King’s serious attitude, it seems that its power is even greater than that of Jun Yan!
Hearing Fingel's question, Caesar and Patsy also looked over with concern, and they also wanted to know what else they could do.
Then, they heard Norma's answer.
"Student Fingel, I suggest you take off your board shorts, put on a suit and tie, and stand up straight."
"Will this make the spirit of speech resistant?"
Fingel scratched his head and wondered.
"No, but it will make your death more dignified."
Norma calmly made a joke.
"Auntie, I was wrong. I am the crow's mouth. I am the crow's mouth, okay! Don't play with me in this crisis. If you want to play, wait until I survive!"
Fingel immediately understood that he had offended the college secretary, and immediately apologized with a sad face.
Hearing this, Caesar and Parsi looked at each other, feeling helpless.
Norma is indeed an artificial intelligence, but it is not an emotionless artificial intelligence. At least according to their observations, this artificial intelligence is equipped with an emotional module, which is often the same as a human being.
After hearing Fingel's plea for mercy, Norma finally became serious and her voice seemed to become much more serious.
"Strictly speaking, all you can do now is wait for death. The temperature of the nearby river has been heated to the point where it is not suitable for launching. The ship has lost power and you are restricted to the isolated island of the Vidal, unable to move. The Dragon King Norton is chanting to you.
Sing some destructive spirit."
"A word spirit with destructive properties? What exactly is it?"
Caesar interrupted and asked.
"It's still unclear. According to voiceprint comparison, during the previous battle at the school, Dragon King Constantine also tried to chant the same word spirit, but was stopped by the student Eri and was not successfully released."
Norma immediately introduced.
"It is reasonable to speculate that the serial number of this speech spirit is higher than that of Jun Yan. Although there is a lack of corresponding information, it is very likely that it is a high-risk speech spirit recorded by Principal Angers - serial number 110, Black Sun!"
Upon hearing this introduction, everyone present choked up.
High-risk word spirits are top secret, and generally their existence is not known. However, everyone knows about the world-destroying word spirit Zhulong. Everyone knows that the serial number of this word spirit is 114.
How terrifying must a Yanling that is only a little lower than the level of Destruction be?
"...Hehe, hehe!"
Fingel laughed stiffly.
"We were trapped on the Vidal and used as a living target. The person targeting us was Dragon King Norton, and he was using the No. 110 high-risk word spirit... He and we have no revenge for killing our father, so how could He De receive such warm treatment?
?Isn’t this the inevitable death!”
After talking about it, his mood became more intense and he seemed a little sad and angry.
Hearing his words, Norma immediately corrected him.
"No, although we don't have a grudge against killing our father, as members of the academy, we have a grudge against Dragon King Norton for killing his younger brother. This time we are here to surround him and kill him. It is normal for Norton to hate us."
"Miss Norma, thank you for your explanation, which made me a wise man!"
After hearing her words, Fingel collapsed on the ground and complained speechlessly.
Faced with this fatal situation, he gave up and was going to die.
However, Caesar refused to give up at this time and continued to ask.
"What is the effect of Black Sun? Does it have any weaknesses?"
Many powerful word spirits have side effects. If you make good use of this, you may have a chance to counterattack.
"You should be able to see the effect of the black sun now."
Norma answered Caesar's words calmly.
Just as Norma said, Norton, who had finished singing, had successfully activated the Black Sun.
A black halo appeared behind him, like the aura behind the Buddha.
At the same time, a powerful storm suddenly blew up on the river, and the black sun's disc caused airflow changes in the entire area like a large vacuum cleaner.
The majestic wind and water converged into a visible current, constantly flowing into the black sun, and then evaporated by the black sun. The water flow on the entire river surface changed direction at the same time.
At this moment, the situation changed color.
Under this unparalleled suction like a black hole, even the giant ship Vidal was driven by the current and rushed towards Dragon King Norton.
That huge black sun was like a dragon's mouth, swallowing up everything.
It is conceivable that once the Vidal is sucked into the mouth of the evil dragon, the final outcome will be that it will be completely shattered, and they, the hybrids, will not even have ashes left.
What is frightening is that they have lost their motivation and have no way to resist. They can only watch themselves falling into the realm of the black sun, as if falling into an abyss or being swallowed by the mouth of hell.
The feeling of being powerless and waiting for death is undoubtedly the most devastating thing to the human mind.
Norma's coffin-closing conclusion made people even more desperate on the spot.
"The characteristic of the Black Sun is that it is almost invincible from the front. On the frontal battlefield, almost no one can escape the attraction of the Black Sun."
After hearing Norma's words and seeing the entire ship plunge into despair with him, Caesar gritted his teeth and still did not give up.
"What about the weakness? Since the front is invincible, what about the back?"
"The back is the weakness of the user of the Black Sun. On the back, the attraction of the Black Sun does not take effect."
Norma replied immediately.
It is said to be a weakness, but in fact it is just not protected by the black sun like the front.
When Caesar heard this, he was delighted.
"So, as long as we can get behind him and hit his vitals with the Philosopher's Stone, we can defeat Norton?"
Theoretically speaking, Caesar's proposal was not impossible.
However, from a practical point of view, looking at the river water under his feet that became even hotter and almost bubbling, Fingel asked his soul.
"Do you think it's possible for us to get around his back without him noticing?"
You might as well slide and shovel over it, barely touching the Dragon King.
Of course, it is more likely that it will turn into ashes before being touched.
"..."
After hearing Fingel's words and looking at Norton facing him head-on, Caesar had to admit that he was overthinking.
Swimming in almost boiling water was something he couldn't do even with his willpower.
Even if he could do it, he couldn't swim to the back of Norton even if the current was pulling him along.
All plans were exhausted, and just when even Caesar felt desperate, Norma suddenly spoke.
"If we find a strong swimmer with rough skin and thick flesh, we might be able to complete this task."
Hearing this, everyone looked at Fingel.
It is said that dead pigs are not afraid of boiling water. With Fingel's thick skin, he is obviously a qualified dead pig.
As for swimming speed, judging from his muscles, it shouldn't be too bad.
"Hey, what do you mean? I'm covered in thin skin and tender flesh. If you look at me again, you'll be shy!"
After pretending to be shy and successfully disgusting several other people, Fingel suddenly jumped up and asked extremely excitedly.
"Wait! Norma, since you are still in the mood to joke, it seems there is a solution?"
After hearing this, everyone couldn't help but feel hope rising again.
Sure enough, Norma's answer did not disappoint them.
"There is indeed a solution, so I just made a joke and asked everyone to relax and wait patiently."
"Wait patiently?"
Caesar was slightly startled.
If they don't have to do anything, where will the turnaround come from?
Wait! Isn’t that right?
Just when he was wondering and thinking of some possibility.
A blue-purple electric light suddenly lit up, directly penetrating the thick fog.
After a rapid sound broke through the air, Kamaitai caught the voice of an extremely lively girl in the distance.
"Dissipate with the butterflies! The phantoms of the past!"
Then, the familiar voice of a man complaining also sounded.
"Apart from being a bit imposing, this line doesn't match it at all! It has no meaning at all."
