Chapter 986: Beneath the Sea
"If I have to say that there are any plans - now we have to wait for them to appear again."
Faced with Kostadt's inquiry.
Ronald could only shrug his shoulders and express his helplessness:
"Though I can summon the thunder to strike at them."
"But if these guys keep sinking under the sea and don't float up, then I really can't do anything with them."
Even if he has just shown his unparalleled lethality.
But what Ronald is stating at this moment is also true.
If he was facing an enemy standing on the shore, his unreserved blow just now could completely annihilate the enemy without leaving a single one.
But it's at sea—
As long as these giant beasts adapted to the marine environment sink to the extremely deep water, no matter how hard Ronald tries to make thunder and lightning, he will not be able to threaten these sea beasts protected by layers of seawater, at best, they will only turn over innocent fish that live in the shallow sea and float on the water.
For Ronald's frank answer.
Before Kostat could respond, the eyes of the casters who were standing in a circle around him changed their eyes.
In their opinion, the power that Ronald has just shown is already unimaginable. To say this at this moment is as if he were saying something very false and polite.
At this time, Kostadt seemed to notice the subtlety of the atmosphere, so he continued to confirm:
"Sir, then we'll wait for their reaction now and then make a decision on a case-by-case basis?"
Ronald nodded in affirmation:
"That's right, that's kind of it."
“……”
The conversation between the two on deck sounded stressful.
But the fact is that at this moment, on the sea near Capone, people's emotions are already extremely tense.
Everyone understands that almost all animals will be frightened and flee after being severely attacked; Either they are completely untaught and start an even crazier counterattack.
And according to the muffled sound coming from under the surface of the water at this moment.
The current situation is undoubtedly the latter, the question is only the timing of the subsequent attack.
……
Time passed in this tense mood.
The casters, either on shore or on the boat, prepared their spells in preparation for the inevitable attack.
But it backfired.
After another few minutes of waiting, nothing changed from the sea beast beneath the surface of the water, except for the constant choking sound.
It was as if these behemoths were performing some kind of ritual for their dead companions, so they didn't want to attack immediately for the time being.
Soon, though, someone noticed the problem.
On the last steamship, a loud shout drew everyone's attention downward:
"Water, the water is not flowing!"
"The direction of the sea is changing!"
The person who reminded him was just an ordinary spellcaster.
However, due to its close connection between its spells and the water flow system, it is also more sensitive to changes in the sea than ordinary people.
At this moment, the caster pointed to the sea below, which did not seem to have changed, and reminded everyone in a very nervous voice:
"Those monsters seem ready to stir up the sea and cause a catastrophe near the harbor."
With this reminder of the caster.
More people began to shift the target of their reconnaissance from the sea beasts beneath the surface to the sea itself. There are many different spells, but they all have an effect. Then a dangerous discovery was made directly in front of everyone.
-- The speed of the sea near Capone Harbor is increasing at a steady rate.
The fact is that after killing a large number of their companions directly by Ronald, these monsters not only let out a deep voice to express their grief, but also moved under the surface of the water, and brewed their next revenge on the people.
“……”
"Mr. Ronald! News from Her Highness Claudia! ”
It didn't take long for Ronald, the investigator on the ship who was in charge of communicating the news, to come forward to report:
"These sea monsters swim in circles beneath the surface of the sea, and with their magical talents, they stir the water and direct the flow of water throughout the area. If the current continues to accelerate like this, I am afraid that the sea water in front of the entire port will become a huge whirlpool! ”
Hearing such a result, Ronald's face sank:
"How much longer, and how big is this vortex?"
The investigator immediately replied:
"The timing is uncertain at this time, but the area is certainly larger than the entire Capone city."
"Your Highness means that the three steamships will sail out at once, at least out of the area where they will be in danger. We must come to the aid of Capone's men, but we must not pay the price of having three steamships shipwrecked in this matter. ”
"It's the right choice." Ronald immediately affirmed Claudia's idea, and then, as the strongest person on this steamship, he did not forget to tell the investigator, "Inform the cockpit that we are following the other two steamships closely, and we must not be left behind." ”
Thus stating his position, Ronald thought of Claudia's rigor in doing things, and immediately asked:
"Since the news from Claudia is like this."
"So in addition to notifying the three steamships to evacuate together, we should also come up with a specific plan to assist Capone, right?"
The investigator in front of Ronald immediately replied:
"His Highness also has orders for this matter, and the plan is very simple-"
"In addition to the personnel necessary to protect the ship, those who are able to return to port can voluntarily set off and meet these terrible sea monsters directly from the shore."
“……”
"Kostadt, let's go."
Ronald immediately recited the incantation, took Kostadt behind him, and flew towards the location of Capone Harbor.
Since this kind of thing is done, you should not choose to give up halfway.
Next fly in the air.
Ronald also sees the situation down there more clearly.
Just like the information that the investigators had just provided, a very large ring was taking shape on the surface of the sea.
If we extrapolate from this trend, the actions that these sea beasts intend to take revenge on are probably not just a simple vent of anger, but even the intention of destroying the entire city of Capone!
Even if you just think about the innocent people of this city.
Ronald couldn't have let this happen in front of him.
The two of them flew extremely fast in the air, and soon approached the shore position.
Without waiting for them to land at the pier.
It was at the junction of Capone's land and sea that Ronald saw that Theresa, the Great Witch, was already standing there.
In the opposite direction, the powerful casters of the [Dawn Spell Society] are also guarding here.
The city of Capone is in crisis.
These two schools of thought that have been entrenched here for a long time naturally cannot choose to flee directly at such a time, they choose to go into battle together and fight the impending crisis!
