Mechanical God Emperor

Chapter 193



193 – Sea Dragon Locusts

Ten days later, after reaching to a certain place in the sea, the Storm Cry stopped.

The Storm Cry’s crew dragged out livestock from inside the ship and threw them into the sea.

Extremely formidable life force spread from the depths of the sea.

50 meters long flood dragon looking sea monsters with cyan scales all over leaped out of the sea, opened their bloody maws, and bit at the cattle. They chewed the cattle alike chewing grapes. Level-4 extraordinary life form rank terrifying fluctuation of power were spread from these sea monsters.

Graveness and dread flashed inside Yang Feng’s eyes as he looked at the sea monsters leaping from inside the sea.

The number of sea monsters leaping from inside the sea reached 100. Even Starry Sky Warlocks would be somewhat fearful of 100 level-4 extraordinary life forms.

Kongfang Ao said: “This part of the ​​sea is the territory of the Cyan-Scaled Demonic Flood Dragons. Anyone who crosses this part of the sea has to offer them living creatures as a sacrifice, or suffer their offensive.

If it was on land, then they would have long since fallen prey to my Great Cloud Dynasty’s hunting teams. Unfortunately, in the Sea of Monsters, it is relatively difficult to hunt them.”

Zheng Gong shouted loudly as he gave Yang Feng’s group a meaningful look, with the abyss of his eyes exposing a trace of a warning: “No one is allowed to go near the railing! If these monsters see anyone while they eat, they will also see them as prey!”

Zheng Gong had sailed for many years, had traveled to many different subcontinents, and had seen many people. People came in all sorts. Many have simply ignored his warnings, bringing great trouble to his ship. It was precisely because of this that he charged such a steep ship fare, raising the threshold and refusing too many outsiders on the ship.

Yang Feng smiled indifferently and continued to observe the level-4 extraordinary life form Cyan-Scaled Demonic Flood Dragons.

After the Cyan-Scaled Demonic Flood Dragons ate their fill, they dove into the sea in satisfaction.

“!”

Zheng Gong shouted loudly. The Storm Cry emitted the terrifying life force of a level-5 extraordinary life form, spreading it in every which way.

The large group of Cyan-Scaled Demonic Flood Dragons dispersed, diving into the depths of the sea.

The Storm Cry was once more surrounded by the strong wind. With its sails were completely unfurled, it sailed into the distance.

Kongfang Ao explained: “This is a relatively safe ship route that the Phoenix Cry Merchant Group had spent millennia to come up with. Some places in the Sea of Monsters are extremely scary, with level-5 extraordinary life forms roaming about. There, even Moonlight Warlocks would be in great danger.”

Yang Feng nodded silently.

Three days later.

The Storm Cry was sailing the boundless sea.

Suddenly, a black cloud drifted over from beyond the horizon.

“Shit. Everyone, prepare for battle!”

Zheng Gong’s complexion suddenly changed greatly and he barked. In a flash, he erupted with a terrifying life force infinitely close to that of a Starry Sky Warlock.

On the Storm Cry, all the sailors erupted with terrifying life force and took out the secret treasures on them. They very vigilantly observed the sky.

Yang Feng silently sensed the strength coming from the Storm Cry’s sailors: “8 Great Warlocks, 336 level-3 Warlocks, and 2,653 level-2 Warlocks, the strength of this D-class armed merchant ship’s crew is astonishing!”

On Turandot Subcontinent, the 8 Great Warlock rank strong persons would be enough to contend with Eyes of Justice, one of the subcontinent’s 6 Great Warlock Groups. On the Storm Cry, these 8 Great Warlock rank strong persons were merely small-time leaders.

In the sky, they saw a group of monsters, each about one meter long, flying over while forming a black cloud. The monsters had miniature dragon heads, a pair of locust wings, a thick body, and a pair of dragon-like claws.

Zheng Gong roared: “Sea Dragon Locusts are the most vicious type of extraordinary life forms in the Sea of Monsters. Mature individuals possess the terrifying fighting strength of level-2 extraordinary life forms. The most frightening thing about them is that they are social creatures, with the smallest of communities being comprised of hundreds of thousands of individuals. Even Starry Sky Warlocks would have a great headache were they to encounter them. They fear flame-attributed spells, and even the level-1 spell Fireball can harm them. The best way to deal with them is to use fire-attributed spells as much as possible.”

As Yang Feng looked at the Sea Dragon Locusts in the sky, his eyes revealed a hint of graveness.

On Turandot Subcontinent, Yang Feng would have 1 million level-8 battle robots to protect him at all times.The Sea Dragon Locusts would not have been an issue. However, on this trip to the continent, Yang Feng could not have the 1 million level-8 battle robots protect him. His true body could fall were he inattentive.

The densely packed Sea Dragon Locusts rushed towards the Storm Cry as they dropped from the sky.

Zheng Gong roared furiously, pointed into the sky, and released the level-3 fire-attributed spell Fire Serpent in a flash. A fire serpent suddenly appeared and made a bee line for the Sea Dragon Locusts in the sky.

Pitter-patter!

The fire snake diving into the midst of the Sea Dragon Locusts was followed by brittle pitter-patter sounds. Patches of the Sea Dragon Locusts were incinerated into ash.

The Storm Cry’s sailors formed offensive and defensive formations. The defense comprised of releasing defensive spells, while the offense comprised of constantly releasing fire-attributed spells like Fireball to frantically bombard the Sea Dragon Locusts in the sky.

Yang Feng reached out and released fireballs from his hands, incinerating a Sea Dragon Locust into ash with each hit. Every time he killed a Sea Dragon Locust, he could feel traces of divine energy of massacre emerge inside him and strengthen his fleshly body. This was the power of divinity of massacre.

Shi Xue operating the Western Extreme-Cold Ice-Phoenix secret method looked like an embodiment of an ice-snow goddess. The Sea Dragon Locusts hit by the cold air she breathed turned into ice sculptures and dropped from the sky.

Although Yang Feng could summon Great Warlock rank mechanical golems to fight in his stead, but he had to temper his own combat ability. Once he entered the Great Cloud Dynasty, Yang Feng would no longer be that monstrously powerful sovereign of Turandot Subcontinent capable of conjuring the forces of nature, and instead, would just be a mediocre level-2 Warlock. The mechanical battle beasts would be his greatest trump card.

With a smile on his face, Kongfang Ao casually pointed into the air and sent a spiral of wind blades towards the countless Sea Dragon Locusts, grinding them into smithereens.

In the middle of the fierce battle, Zheng Gong saw that there was no end to the Sea Dragon Locusts. Even with 8 Great Warlocks on the ship, it would still be difficult to resist them. He could only clench his teeth and take out a red jade card from his bosom before pouring his spirit force inside.

The Storm Cry erupted with a terrifying life force. Following which, hatches opened, magical radiances flickered, and fire snakes shot at the Sea Dragon Locusts.

Hundreds of fire snakes intertwined in the sky as fire elemental particles surged, resembling a natural disaster. Following brittle sounds, patches of Sea Dragon Locusts burned to cinders and dropped from the sky.

The Sea Dragon Locusts resembling a black cloud suffered disastrous casualties. When they finally could no longer withstand the fire snakes released by the Storm Cry’s, they flapped their wings and flew away.

Everyone atop the Storm Cry heaved a sigh of relief when the Sea Dragon Locusts retreated. Simultaneously, anguished wails were disseminated.

After all, the Sea Dragon Locusts were level-2 extraordinary life forms. Their fighting strength was great. Even though they drove the enemy away by relying on the Storm Cry’s formidable weapons, but there were still hundreds of casualties among the sailors. Only 20 plus people had died on the spot, with the rest suffering injuries of various degrees.

Yang Feng asked in curiosity: “Why did they not employ large area of effect meteorological spells?”

Although the Sea Dragon Locusts were level-2 extraordinary life forms, yet they could not withstand a Fireball. If a large area of effect fire-attributed meteorological spell was employed, then the enemy would have incurred heavy losses.

Kongfang Ao explained: “This is also one of the Sea of Monsters’ taboos. Once a large area of effect meteorological spell is employed out here, it will be sensed by the Sea of Monster’s formidable beings. Following which, they would come over and destroy us. The Sea Dragon Locusts are barely qualified to be considered as a natural disaster of the Sea of Monsters and are much easier to withstand.”

Kongfang Ao continued: “Yang Feng, large area of effect meteorological spells are taboo in many places. Unless used in a desperate ditch to take ones mortal enemy down with oneself; otherwise, one would be hunted down and killed. Your large area of effect destructive weapons are best not to be used in the Great Cloud Dynasty. Once too many ordinary people are killed, the Great Cloud Dynasty will list you as an A-class criminal and dispatch numerous experts to hunt you down. There are many Moonlight Warlock rank bounty hunters in our Great Cloud Dynasty.”

Yang Feng mused for a moment and nodded.

If the positions were reversed and Yang Feng was a ruler of a great empire, then he would also dispatch countless experts to chase down villains who wantonly killed hundreds of thousands or millions of ordinary people.

Ordinary people were large in numbers but weak in strength, yet they were the foundation of the World of Warlocks. Many Warlocks had started as ordinary people. Without the large number of ordinary people, it was not possible to have a bright and flourishing World of Warlocks.

Kongfang Ao added: “However, you only have to be careful not to use such alchemical weapons in densely populated areas. On the continent, the 8 Great Warlock Dynasties’ founding Emperors had focused the power of their dynasties to carry out magical blessings on the continent. The continent’s laws are somewhat different from those dilapidated subcontinents’ laws, and the continent is more stable than those subcontinents.

The might of your alchemical weapons will not be as great as it was in the subcontinent. Using them in some remote places would be okay.”

Kongfang Ao urged once more: “In general, the fights on the continent involve mighty single form spells with a small scope. Otherwise, once a spell’s scope is too large, it would cause many strong persons to take notice and lead to many unnecessary troubles.”
