Witch, I'm really not an ancient god of the deep sea!

Chapter 408 The Dangerous Little Black Hair
In that instant, everyone's attention was drawn to the tall, slender figure on the giant shark warship.

The translucent figure gradually solidified.

Haye wore a monocle, had neat blond hair, and was dressed in a magnificent merchant's robe. Hanging from the robe were a bunch of bottles filled with green liquid, and inside the bottles were various transparent, twisted, shrieking monsters.

His face was young, around twenty years old, but his melancholy eyes and heavy eye bags gave him an extremely aged appearance.

But without a doubt, he is one of the strongest beings standing at the pinnacle of this ocean, capable of dominating this wave!
The navy personnel aboard the giant shark warship were overjoyed and shouted loudly:
"Master Haye!"

"An invisible hand will crush you!"

"Lord Haye has arrived! An invisible force is manipulating everything!"

"Give me my money back, you bastard!!"

Owe money? Blood Lion sat at the bow of the boat, crossed his legs, exhaled a breath of blood, and said with a laugh:

"I'll pay you back, I'll pay you back, yay! I'm working hard to earn money right now to pay you back!"

"Just give us the A-grade rift in this ocean! I'll pay you back with double the interest!"

The blood lion opened its eyes wide in anger and shoved its hand forward violently.

"Rise up! My brave warriors!"

Instantly, the blood vessel weapons on the bodies of the twenty Blackblood Heavy Armored Soldiers who were charging forward emitted a scarlet light, forcibly repairing their shattered bodies!

Vascular Weapons. Reforged!

The vascular weapon originates from the 'Vascular Research Institute', a Rank A rift in the Blackblood Empire's plateau, and can provide superhumans with speed, strength, and health.

Its power is comparable to a forbidden weapon, and most importantly, unlike other rare forbidden weapons, this weapon can be mass-produced through A-level rift devices!
It was the A-rank rift 'Vascular Research Institute' that, combined with the Blood Lion's Saint-level strength, formed the Blood Lion's colossal army.

"war!"

"Fight! Fight!"

Amidst the deafening cheers, twenty heavily armored soldiers in black blood suddenly unleashed crimson spiritual energy, forming an attack formation once again on the sea.

Like a chess player high above, the Blood Lion slammed its thick right hand down:
"Blood-Forged Array. Great Serpent Spear!!!"

The Blackblood Heavy Armor soldiers pointed their axes at Haye, and their spiritual energy field erupted once more, forming a giant red serpent that charged at Haye again.

"Blood Lion, one day you will understand that every blessing comes at a price..."

Haye raised his hand and flung it away.

Instantly, two semi-transparent giant hands appeared beneath his robe, pressing down on the incoming array of giant serpent spears!

Hayek's eyes were utterly cold.

In his view, the Blackblood soldiers in front of him were essentially just fake fourth-tier beings constructed using blood vessel weapons and the power of the Blood Lion.

These twenty so-called legends might be able to bully a pirate general...

However, compared to true power, it's insignificant! Haye waved his hand dismissively.

Suddenly, the Blood Lion burst into loud laughter:

"Unfortunately, this isn't your bank, it's my battlefield!"

Suddenly, eighty similarly dressed Blackblood Heavy Armor Soldiers reappeared on the Black Prison Giant Ship.

However, they no longer wielded axes, but rather heavy, steam-powered, blood-red firearms.

"Blood Gun Barrage. Annihilation Barrage!!!"

brush!brush!brush!brush!
Countless bullets pierced the sea, like a dense rain of blood, bombarding Haye, the invisible hand.

At the same time, the twenty Blackblood soldiers in the Great Serpent Spear suddenly accelerated, their figures like lightning, gripping their giant axes and slashing across Haye's body!

Twenty streaks of crimson lightning streaked past!

Tick ​​tock!

Tick ​​tock!

Everyone stared wide-eyed, their eyes filled with disbelief.

A drop of blood flowed down Haye's neck and landed on the deck.

Haye turned his head to the side; he hadn't bled for a full ten years.

He was hurt!
Moreover, he was injured by the 'Tier 3 soldier' ​​in front of him.

Isa's eyes widened in disbelief. She hadn't expected that those weak Tier 3 soldiers could actually injure the Invisible Hand, Haye!
As expected, the Blood Lion still had the upper hand... Chen Qi stroked his chin, analyzing the current battle situation.

The invisible hand's profession is a fifth-tier cup illusory soul merchant.

It has a core skill called Soul Separation, which allows its soul to leave its body to detect and fight, and it is almost impossible to detect unless one has extremely high spiritual vision.

However, its strength is relatively weak, only at the fourth level, and it cannot exert its true combat power.

To achieve full power, it must fight in its physical form. It can command the souls it has acquired, manipulate invisible illusory hands, and its shell can directly attack the souls of its opponents...

As a fifth-tier cultivator at his peak, his strength far surpasses that of the Blood Hunter.

However, his strength was far from sufficient when facing the Blood Lion.

Haye was able to be injured, not because of the soldiers' strength, but because of the manifestation of the saint's power.

The Blood Lion's Blademaster class is the War Beast, a class born for war.

Only those who possess extraordinary qualities and the power of sainthood can turn 'soldiers' into war machines and make them their pawns!
Once it becomes a chess piece, its power can instantly rise from the third tier to the fourth tier, achieving a qualitative leap!

The twenty Blackblood Heavy Armor Soldiers who came to challenge the Invisible Hand were temporary legends born from the combination of blood vessel weapons and the power of the Blood Lion.

It's important to understand that even with the power of a saint, one would still feel mentally exhausted when facing a constant stream of legendary soldiers.

Chen Qi looked around.

A thick, bloody wind blew continuously, vaguely forming a blood-red chessboard.

The power of the War Beast lies in its ability to create powerful soldiers. The Blood Lion before us may appear bold and rugged, a berserker, but in essence, it is a high-ranking chess player.

This is also the main difference between the two. The Blood Lion is a saint born for war. Although its physical body is relatively weak, as long as it can gather enough troops, it can exert power that surpasses that of an ordinary saint.

Haye, the Invisible Hand, is a saint who fights alone.

His strength is insufficient to help the Navy Alliance; in fact, he may even need the Navy Alliance's assistance to avoid being defeated by the Blood Lion.

I couldn't help but feel a sense of感慨 (gǎnkǎi, mixed feelings) as I woke up this morning.

This was also the first time he had ever witnessed a battle of this magnitude.

This kind of war is far more dangerous than any war in the past.

Compared to the legendary battles that relied on the seas in the past, real conventional warfare also relies heavily on soldiers.

If we say that in the face of a fifth-tier saint, soldiers of the third tier and below are nothing more than ants that can be crushed at any time.

Whether it's the Blackblood Empire's army or the regular forces of other countries, they all have ways to utilize the power of 'ordinary soldiers,' transforming them from ordinary insects into swarms of venomous insects.

And once this power is gathered, it becomes immense.

Aside from high-level experts, the biggest difference between a nation's regular army and ordinary forces lies in whether they possess the power to turn insects into swarms of poisonous insects!
Ordinary pirates and soldiers are an indispensable part of the war. If they are ignored, even saints will be devoured by this swarm of poisonous ants!
brush!brush!brush!
Without any pause, on the Black Prison Giant Ship, the Black Blood Heavy Armor Soldiers, under the command of the Blood Lion, continued to fire at Haye.

After Haye was hit, his soul appeared and disappeared from his body.

Blood Lion laughed loudly:
"Haha, this is a soul bullet that can damage the soul! Come to think of it, I actually took out a loan to buy it from you, hahaha!!"

This intense barrage struck Haye's soul directly, making it difficult for him to move.

Mrs. Oly immediately gave instructions:
"Everyone! Open fire! Suppress their fire! Cover Haye!"

"For the Goddess of the Sea! For Glory!!!"

"May the goddess and the witch protect us! We will surely win!!!"

With a cannon shot, the battle officially began. The navy's artillery fired first, and the shells pierced the sky, crashing into the giant Black Prison ship with sharp whistling sounds, stirring up huge columns of water and flames!
"Brothers! For the treasure and the beauties! Charge! Charge! Charge!"

"Kill all those bastards!!!"

"Black blood, eternally boiling! For the Emperor!!!"

The pirates and Blackblood soldiers, not to be outdone, quickly approached in their agile ships, attempting to use their close-combat advantage to attack the naval coalition!
Extraordinary individuals with different ambitions swarmed forward.

In an instant, arrows and bullets clashed in the air, flames rose from the sea, thick smoke billowed, and the sea and sky were completely ablaze.

As the boarding action began, the sounds of clashing swords, booming cannons, shouts of soldiers, and maniacal laughter of pirates mingled together. The two sides, centered around Haye and Blood Lion, created a chaotic and chaotic war scene.

Isa, from the Canary Merchant Ship, could not suppress her fighting spirit and prepared to summon Canary and Golden Fox to join the melee!
It's important to know that the Blackblood Empire, this mad nation, is a neighboring country of the Golden Flower Bird Kingdom and has launched numerous attacks against them, attempting to seize the A-rank rift on their border!
The Black Blood Empire and the Golden Flower Bird Kingdom are enemies!
"It's our turn, Black Hunter!!"

Aside from Haye and Blood Lion, the other four fourth-tier soldiers are the sharpest blades on the battlefield!
However, to Isa's surprise, Chen Qi's eyes showed no hunter's madness, only a calm as still as water.

No… Chen Qi looked at the chaotic battle and reached out to stop Isa:

"Don't worry, Isa."

Something's not right, something's not right... Chen Qi had a vague sense of foreboding.

First, the pirate generals mentioned in the intelligence, the high-ranking members of the Sea God Pirate Crew, have all disappeared.

According to the intelligence Palu sent back, the Blood Hunters' primary target is the 'Invisible Hand'!
If the Blood Hunter and the Blood Lion appear at the same time, they can force Haye, the Invisible Hand, to reveal his trump card in an instant.

However, the generals of the Sea God Pirates and the Black Whale Pirates suddenly disappeared.

Do they have other motives?

A more important objective than conquering the A-rank Rift Gem Country!
A surprise attack on Moonstone City, or some other target... Chen Qi pondered.

and many more!

No way! Chen Qi's pupils contracted, and he felt a chill run down his spine as a possibility dawned on him.

Chen Qi looked around.

Besides the unknown whereabouts of the pirate general and the Sea God Pirate Crew, on the nearby sea, the tentacle merchant who escaped from the Coffin of the Sea also seemed to be drawn to the blood of the sea...

A chaotic battle ensued... Chen Qi hurriedly gripped the long sword at his waist.

Boom!

A loud explosion in the distance caught Chen Qi's attention.

Then, a huge phantom lion appeared behind the Blood Lion.

He roared like a lion king, raising his arms:
"Blade Dissection. Blood Lion Boiling! My warriors, show them true power!"

Blade cut!
The roar resonated in the hearts of everyone on the battlefield.

Blood Lion was the first to activate Blade Release!

A blade dismantling from the saint!!
Instantly, red lion phantoms also appeared behind the hundred Black Blood Heavy Armor Soldiers under his command!

Their bodies suddenly swelled up, and their metal armor cracked with a popping sound!
Everyone gasped in shock. In that instant, all one hundred Black Blood Soldiers possessed a fourth-order spiritual energy field.

One hundred fourth-tier spiritual energy fields left the allied forces of the Witch Sea in disbelief.

They never imagined that such a scene would appear in their lives!

This is the army led by a saint!

"Blood-Forged Array: Hundred Lions Tear and Bite!"

Blood Lion roared as he commanded the Blackblood Heavy Armored Soldiers to launch an attack.

In an instant, these one hundred Black Blood soldiers, like the embodiment of a natural disaster, transformed into one hundred blood-red lions, tearing apart the entire battlefield.

The explosions continued unabated. If no one stopped them, the naval coalition would suffer 50% casualties in three minutes.

At that moment, Haye looked at the Blood Lion and finally could no longer hold back.

He whispered:

"Steam Hand, hold back, make your move."

Boom! Boom!
Beneath the deck of the giant shark warship, one after another, massive steel hands emerged from the shattered deck—

Everyone turned around and their eyes widened in surprise.

Atop the giant shark warship, a colossal figure forged from steel rose to its feet.

Their steel-cast bodies are all engraved with a pattern of steam hands!
Everyone stared wide-eyed, momentarily speechless with shock.

If the Blackblood Empire used the spells of saints, such as the War Beast, to transform ordinary soldiers into a swarm of frenzied poisonous ants, thus forming an unstoppable army.

So, the Kingdom of Be is what allows ants to drive iron shells far exceeding the capabilities of their frail bodies:

A war mech created by the Empire's strongest workshop, combining materials from a thousand companies, five A-rank rifts, and a hundred B-rank rifts!

On the surging sea, ten newly crafted war machines, created by the Steam Hands and specifically designed for the ocean, stand like ten giants, overlooking the vast expanse of water.

Each mech stands a full thirty meters tall, powered by a special gem from the Land of Gems, a steam-powered hand engine, and the spiritual energy of at least ten third-tier superhumans!

call--

To everyone's disbelief, these ten enormous steel giants stood on the sea.

In that instant, a hint of seriousness finally appeared in the Blood Lion's eyes, and it couldn't help but raise its head and roar:
"Haha! That's more like it! More awesome! This is what I want, what I want to challenge!"

Hammers and shells are the true weapons of the Bek Kingdom. The unstoppable steam fortress, the steel giants standing on the earth, and the mechanical city walls stretching for thousands of meters are the true power of the Bek Kingdom on this land, and the power that has always blocked the conquest of their Black Blood Empire!
The Blood Lion's bones crackled and popped as it commanded like a lion:

"Alright! It's your turn to appear: Blood Hunter, Pirate General, and the sea monster from the Sea God Pirate Crew!!!"

However, to Blood Lion's surprise...

His voice received no response.

"Ok?"

Blood Lion turned around and was surprised to find that none of the pirate generals or high-ranking members of the Sea God Pirate Crew, who were supposed to be fighting alongside them, were there.

Even the Blood Hunters have completely disappeared.

This is a precious opportunity to defeat the Moonstone City navy.

Where did they go? Is there any resource on this vast ocean more precious than the Gem Kingdom of the A-Rank Rift?
This is a precious A-level crack.

Blood Lion fell silent for a moment.

Amid the chaos, Chen Qi and Isa both looked towards the distant horizon.

As expected, they've arrived... Chen Qi adjusted his breathing technique.

They saw a surging, frenzied horde of sea monsters, a pair of bloodshot, doll-like eyes shrouded in mist, and enormous, constantly writhing tentacles—

This is all because of him.

……

……

On the high seas, the Ghost of the Underworld sails at full speed.

The Ice Witch closed her eyes and performed another divination.

Bang, bang, bang—

Fen clutched her chest.

From the very beginning, her heart was beating very fast.

She recalled the events in the images of fate, a possibility they had long worried about resurfaced.

The pirate alliance's true objective may not be the Land of Gems, but merely a smokescreen; their ultimate goal is only the life of the Ice Witch...

And there's more!
Fen turned her head and asked worriedly:

"Teacher, what were the results of the divination?"

The Ice Witch opened her azure eyes and used her spiritual power to increase the speed of the Nether Sea Ghost once again:

"Little Blackie is in danger..."

"He has been targeted by two fifth-tier monsters at the same time."

Two fifth-order units!

"start……"

Fen gripped her chest tightly, feeling like she couldn't breathe.
