Pirate Kingship.

Chapter 308: The Sea is Full of Familiar People

Ever since Violet followed Byron's instructions to seize the upper hand when the Flaming Rose was fighting against Red Beard's third-level ship Nemesis, she had become accustomed to not questioning his various strange requests.

Without saying a word, he immediately slapped the traveler's bag.

A pile of copper ingots fell on the deck with a clang.

The bag of this third-level master craftsman is filled with all kinds of alchemical materials. Copper ingots are just one of the most basic materials, and the reserves are very sufficient.

Unlike uncorroded bronze which is golden in color, pure copper appears rose red and turns purple after being oxidized in the air with a layer of copper rust on the surface.

This is the most economical and practical high-quality conductor in the electrical age, and has the potential to become "the world's first electrical wire."

But the technology tree has not been opened yet, and Violet and everyone else don’t know what this thing can be used for.

He simply unfolded a circular alchemical array and activated [Alchemy] to manually pull each copper ingot into standardized copper wires nearly as thick as his little finger.

"Speed ​​up, I'll hold him back."

After Byron finished speaking, he raised his sword again and pounced on the gladiator Smith who was wearing the beast armor.

With the storm wings and the fluttering cloak, he moved as fast as lightning without touching the ground, leaving only a trail of afterimages in the rain behind him.

clang!clang!clang!
I saw a line of bright white silver snake moving and cutting around Smith, using the "flow" to find a gap to enter, cut through the iron swordsmanship realm, and cut off the beast souls on the beast armor one by one.

Under normal circumstances, among a person's hands, torso, feet and footwork, the hands are the fastest and the footwork is the slowest.

But at this moment, Byron's movement speed alone was faster than the sword-wielding speed of other people of the same level!
Suddenly on the left, suddenly on the right, he looked even more like a ghost than the guy crawling all over the Black Coffin.

One person filled the firepower gap left by Violet's absence.

The gladiator relied on his extraordinary [Beast Instinct] to block left and right, but he could only defend the vital points, and could only launch a counterattack occasionally relying on the sharp armor.

But he believed that he would not be the first to collapse, and he did not forget to provoke Byron verbally:

"Give up, all you've done is just a last-ditch effort!

What kind of reward do you think the kingdom paid for using me, a fourth-level hero?
The lives of all the natives of the islands in the Castilian gyre have been paid to me as an advance.

You are not only fighting against me, but also the manpower and material resources of the maritime hegemon Castile!"

Byron ignored his words and concentrated his mind highly. His sword moves seemed to have some wonderful changes besides the most basic chopping, stabbing and cutting.

Swordsmanship was already making great strides on the path of "flow", and at this moment it was gradually reaching a more mysterious realm.

That is the second level of flow [divine vision]!
Some people describe "divine vision" as gaining the senses of a god, and even compare it to an angel descending into their body, making every move they make seem as if assisted by a god.

When one reaches this realm, it seems that one can really touch the slightest trace of the realm of gods with a humble mortal body.

——The God of Self is born in the deepest part of the soul.

There is only one secret to reaching the second level of spiritual realm: "Empty your cup so that you can fill it again, and be empty in order to achieve perfection."

That is the supreme state of mind after discarding all distractions, concentrating to the extreme, getting the moves and forgetting the moves at the same time.

The wind, rain, and waves around him, things that he already had control over thanks to [Storm Admiral], gradually began to breathe in the same air with Byron.

Even the storm wings behind him seemed to have turned into two huge swords. They were no longer composed of ordinary airflow, but Byron's sharp sword wind!
Moreover, it was a sword wind that was activated like that of a storm spirit. The powerful wing strike seemed to be controlled by a master of swordsmanship, and was as superb as Byron's own swordsmanship.

Even if he only touched the surface of Shenjian, his sword moves would be completely renewed from the inside out.

Byron's gifted [Weather Intuition] made his perception of celestial phenomena more acute than ever before. Wherever he looked, dense cracks in the world appeared one after another.

Just at this moment, the group of Deathwing at the bow of the ship encountered an accident during the fierce battle with the skeleton sailors.

"what--!"

A Marine who had put the gold coin in his mouth early on was careless and had his jaw smashed by the opponent's hammer.

Gold coins flew out.

The original body of the living dead instantly returned to its human form. The pain attacked the brain again, and the howl that came out of the broken mouth was extremely shrill.

What's even worse is that the broken jaw bones, teeth, flesh and blood flew far away from the battlefield and fell into the surging sea of ​​source.

In the chaotic battlefield, even Byron found it difficult to take care of such sudden and unexpected situations.

The next moment, the already turbulent waves began to boil, and in the blink of an eye, they turned from pitch black to a terrifying red.

Piranha!
Those piranhas that never swim far away are dozens of meters deep underwater!
With the three warships as the center, they were spread out so densely that there was no end in sight.

I just felt that the sea was red, the waves were red, and even the dark sky was reflected red by the faint extraordinary light from them.

After smelling the blood, these blind piranhas immediately jumped out of the water like crazy and rushed towards the direction where the human blood was dripping.

The monster that managed to jump onto the deck immediately used its hands and feet to bite any living thing around it.

Then he was immediately dealt with by Eight Fingers, Gus and others, and kicked back into the sea, where his body was immediately eaten up by his former companions.

creak creak
Those underwater who couldn't squeeze to the front for the time being couldn't hold back the saliva flowing from their mouths, and began to gnaw on the planks of the three warships with their sharp teeth.

With sufficient teak material, the bottom of the boat repaired itself faster than they gnawed at it.

But any living person would feel weak in the knees just thinking about the thousands of hungry mouths waiting for you right under your feet.

Byron also realized that he couldn't wait any longer, so he took the time to ask:

"How long is the copper wire?"

"Five hundred meters."

"That's enough. The cumulonimbus cloud is only about 400 meters away. Everyone else, cover me."

The others joined forces and charged forward, but Byron suddenly stepped back, summoning [Guaranteed Hit Gungnir] with his left hand, and condensed an identical storm weapon with his right hand.

Tie a coil of pure copper wire to the butt of each gun.

Concentrate and hold your breath, then activate [Weather Intuition] with all your strength.

The Sea of ​​​​Source does not seem to be much different from the material world.

But the biggest difference is probably that the Sea of ​​​​Source seems to be the concentration of all negative energy, and there are no amazing scenes such as lightning and thunder.

There was no hope of attracting lightning, but Byron had another way.

Unlike most other Storm Knights, he completed his third-level promotion in the Sea of ​​​​Source.

After being promoted to [Storm Admiral], he gained a strong affinity for storms, and his [Weather Intuition] was greatly enhanced. Not only could he sense the weather changes in the ocean of the material world, but he could also clearly sense the turbulence of the sea of ​​​​source in front of him.

With a little bit of [Divine Vision], as long as you follow the abnormal stirring of the source tide, you can easily find those large and small world cracks.

Just like this moment.

Byron felt the changes in the weather during a storm on the other side of a world rift. His eyes suddenly widened and he threw the storm-like spear in his hand fiercely.

call out!
[War Shackles] prohibit any combatant from escaping, but do not prohibit inanimate objects from passing.

A line of bright blue lightning, surrounded by countless storm elves, penetrated through the smallest crack in the world and returned to the material world, then shot straight up into the sky.

It headed straight for the dark cumulonimbus cloud that Byron perceived was carrying the strongest electric charge.

The pure copper wire tied to the end of the gun not only received the same blessing from the Son of Storm, but also had its gravity reduced to zero, making it as light as a feather.

The storm spirit also possesses it, providing an additional temporary enchantment, greatly enhancing its conductivity. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a room-temperature superconductor at this time.

The gun at the other end of the copper wire was aimed at the ghost ship dozens of meters away.

"stop!"

With the knowledge of the gladiator/coffin bearer Smith, he had no idea what Byron was going to do, but his keen spiritual premonition told him that this would definitely not be a good thing.

He was about to raise the shield in his hand to launch a brutal charge, desperate to counterattack, not to mention interrupting Byron's movements, but at least to cut off the strange copper wire.

At this time, Jacqueline finally launched the ultimate move that she had been holding back for a long time. The shadow under her feet suddenly extended and instantly connected with the shadow of the gladiator.

She raised her hand and made a face at him:

"Uncle, repeat after me, one, two, three, freeze!"

Smith's body suddenly stiffened, and his right hand holding the guillotine was about to involuntarily make the same face as the girl.

Others took the opportunity to bombard the Hundred Beasts Armor indiscriminately, knocking off more than a dozen layers of it.

"Shadow magic? Get out of here!"

The arrogance in her body burst out again, and Jacqueline struggled suddenly, and blood suddenly flowed from the corner of her mouth.

Jacqueline struggled with all her strength again and vomited a large amount of blood. Her whole skinny body was shaking violently.

Using the third level to forcibly control the fourth level, one breath is already her limit.

But at this time, even if Smith regained his freedom, he would no longer have the chance to cut the copper wire.

"Right now, Miss."

At Byron’s command, Violet poured out all the pure water in the Warrior’s Cup.

With the Witch of Disaster's natural ability to control water, she enveloped the entire Golden Deer.

"go with!"

At the same time, Gungnir in Byron's hand, which was infused with the souls of the two third-level extraordinary people, the Newman brothers, exploded the air circle and broke through the air.

In just a moment, it pierced the chest of the [Guardian Spirit·Crawling Iron Coffin Princess] and pierced the entire ghost ship under her feet, and the gun head emerged from the bottom of the ship.

A copper wire connecting Tianhai suddenly stretched straight.

Before the entangled Black Coffin and May Wind could react.

Click!

A blazing white lightning that was enough to illuminate the entire sea area transformed into an angry dragon and instantly arrived along the copper wire.

This is the spear of divine punishment thrown by Thor from the clouds!
The instantaneous power of lightning is extremely terrifying.

Even in a normal intensity thunderstorm, the voltage of lightning when it first discharges can reach 5 million volts, and the average current is 20 amperes.

The lightning was carefully selected by Byron, and with the help of the storm spirits, the cumulonimbus cloud was completely drained in one discharge.

There really wasn’t a drop left.

This super-large discharge lasted for about ten seconds, and its power was naturally beyond imagination.

The guardian spirit that was still wailing suddenly flashed and was burned into a wisp of green smoke in the blink of an eye.

The ghost ship, which was full of holes and water, was undergoing a cleansing of positive energy.

There was a burst of crackling sounds, and in an instant all the undead reserves were emptied out by the electric snakes running around.

"vomit!"

A large amount of blood suddenly spurted out from the back of Gladiator Smith's head.

The guardian spirit and the ghost ship that signed the soul contract were both destroyed, and the coffin carrier Smith was naturally also seriously injured.

This is not over yet.

The lightning followed the tip of Gungnir's gun into the sea, a good conductor of electricity, and in the process sent the comrade who had just fought side by side with them into the sky.

The octopus battleship, which was already tightly entangled with the Black Coffin, was electrocuted until it was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and its eight tentacles curled up naturally like grilled squid.

Soon the tempting burnt aroma wafted from afar.

The half-human, half-fish piranhas that gathered near the three ships did not escape the disaster either, and all turned into a big pot of fish-human soup.

Due to the skin effect, current tends to concentrate on the surface of a conductor when passing through it.

That is to say, the high voltage electricity is basically concentrated near the water surface, but who made them all rush over just for a drop of blood?

The wages of avarice is death.

Anyway, the sea is full of familiar faces now.

Only the Golden Deer, which used pure water as an insulating barrier, remained safe and sound.

This extremely tragic scene suddenly appeared in the field of vision.

All the living people on the battlefield stopped their actions involuntarily, staring blankly at this "Thor's Coming" and slowly widened their eyes.

Without exception, the straight electric light that created the world deep in their eyes has not dissipated completely.
