Chapter 199: Appraisal is win-win (2/3)

  Chapter 199 Appraisal is a win-win situation (23)

  Sea beasts really can't stop the exploration ship.

  After Ian shot with a water gun and shocked everyone by the power of this strange inscription device, they were not to be outdone and showed their respective strengths.

  The captain took out the harpoon, and the steel fork with the rope was thrown out by his skinny body, but it carried tremendous force, and the air let out a shrill howl.

  When the harpoon hit a stone turtle, it even easily smashed the opponent's rock scales and directly penetrated it.

  According to what the captain said, he is actually quite healthy, and his skinny body is only because of a mistake in the formula of the potion, which transformed his muscles into high-density and powerful muscles, but did not leave the relevant fat and filling structure.

  The sea-born swordsman swung his long sword in the air, and the layers of water waves turned into translucent lines, and he slashed towards the sea—the neck of a snake-necked beast snapped.

  The water-dividing inscription engraved on this long sword does have its effect. The water blade he cuts out is clearly separated from the waves. Unlike Ian's water gun, which is affected by the direction and strength of the waves, it maintains the most complete power.

  Ian wrote it down, and he will borrow the other party's sword if he has the opportunity to take a look. This is said to be the unique inscription skill of Jinggeya, which is indeed worth learning.

   As for Isengarde's two first-level guards, they just shot with longbows—they didn't kill many monsters, but they did protect Isengarde well.

  The other crew members also used the spear guns equipped on the ship to shoot, and the wavesinger also sang loudly, speeding up the waves, and the scattered encirclement of sea beasts was quickly broken through.

  Five sublimators, counting myself and Isengard, is seven, plus a second-level Goser master, even if the natives come out in full force, it is impossible to completely block them, let alone these are just gatekeepers.

   Not long after, the exploration ship has left the night light sea area and came to the far sea.

This successful encounter has made all the crew members quite confident, and the atmosphere of the team has become warmer. The members who were not familiar with each other also chatted with each other with smiles on their faces—fighting together is one of the fastest ways to strengthen relationships , even if the difficulty of this battle is not great.

  Abusing food together is also fighting.

  Ian is no exception. He took advantage of the opportunity to borrow a sword from a sea-born swordsman for identification and rubbing. The other party also wanted to have a good relationship with this young genius who could build a high-pressure water gun by himself, so he didn't refuse.

After writing down the structure of the inscription on the Fenshui Seaborn long sword, Ian also noticed that this long sword actually has a second function—it has two sets of inscriptions. It can prevent the sublimation skills of the holder from being affected by the water environment, and the effect of the second group is "wave stimulation", which can use the momentum of the waves to enhance the power of the underwater slash.

This is a good weapon at the peak of the first energy level. At first, the swordsman of sea descent was not convinced, but following Ian's explanation, after stimulating the inscriptions in different orders, it did show the power of "breaking waves" .

  He entered the sea and slashed out with a sword. The straight white waves stretched for nearly a hundred meters before stopping slowly. The power was so powerful that everyone was amazed.

   This is of course also the result of the stormy environment, but if it is normal, cutting a 34-meter sword wave in the sea can also greatly expand the range of the swordsman's strike.

According to the swordsman of sea descent, this is the sword left by his father. His father participated in the Battle of the Three Seas thirty-five years ago, beheaded more than ten sea monsters, and obtained the official title of Whale Song Cliff. reward—this long sword is the reward.

It's just a pity that his father died of a recurrence of old injuries when he was young, so he didn't fully understand the true usage of this long sword. Even if he asked his father's comrades in arms, they would only use the first set of inscriptions usage.

   In this way, everyone was convinced of Ian's identification ability.

  However, while Ian was chatting happily with everyone.

  But he noticed that Master Goser frowned and pulled Isengard to the cabin beside him, not knowing what they were talking about.

   When Isengard came out, the young alchemist distributed several copies of 'Underwater Breathing' and 'Fish Skin Potion' to everyone present.

   "Although everyone is very good at water, after all, we are in the open sea, and no one can guarantee that there will be no accidents—so we keep these medicines close to us. If necessary, they can definitely save lives."

  Whether the words are auspicious or not, the medicine is real.

  Aquabreathing potions are cheaper than other alchemy potions, about three thalers a bottle. Although this price is still expensive for ordinary people, most people who are engaged in the marine industry will prepare a bottle on their backs. Saving a life at a critical moment is definitely not a lie.

The fish skin potion sounds earthy, but it is actually very useful—it can reduce the resistance in the water, and even slow down the impact of wind and waves. When used together with underwater breathing, even people with poor water skills can survive the wind and rain Fight against the tide and try to get back to the shore.

  Such a bottle requires nine tales, half a year's salary for an ordinary crew member.

   After getting this bottle of potion, everyone became suspicious... Even if they were chased by the natives, it would not be so early to prepare for a rainy day, ready to escape after the defeat, right?

   But in the final analysis, it’s all for nothing. In this way, hundreds of Tales are thrown out. It can only be said that the Ellen family is rich and powerful.

  Next, Ian was called to the captain's room alone.

   "Here is the source quality breath that the instrument took just now, Ian, feel it, and you decide which direction we will sail next."

  Master Gesai looked serious, and Ian understood somewhat that the other party should have noticed some clues during the battle just now.

  Although the other party admired his identification ability very much, Jiang must still be old and hot. Even if the other party cannot be keenly aware of it because he does not have the corresponding psychic power, he must be better than himself in terms of details.

   Without further ado, the young man stepped forward and took the source gas bottle extracted by the instrument.

  He turned on his psychic power, observed for a while, and found that there was indeed an aura very similar to dragon scales, and said, "Southwest."

"what."

  The old man couldn't help being a little puzzled, even his hunched back was a little straight: "Are you sure it's Southwest? The instrument shows..."

   "It's a storm now, the tide is very strong, and there is an undercurrent surrounding the South China Sea."

Ian did not stop his psychic powers. He observed the induction and explained: "Master, you have never lived in the South China Sea. The underwater undercurrent is the official way for sea creatures. Moving along the undercurrent can save a lot of energy, but it is also because In this way, many source quality breaths from other directions will be carried in and rush towards the northwest, so it is impossible to track the target."

  Ian drew a sloping dotted line from south to west on the map with his hands. Isengard, who was standing aside, asked curiously: "Then why didn't they come from the south?"

And the young man patiently explained: "Because the south is the Tantan Cliff, where there is a gathering place for thunder-hunting jellyfish—the number of jellyfish has increased over the years, not to mention that this crystal dragon is only at the peak of the first energy level, even if It is the peak of the second energy level, and you have to turn around when you encounter those jellyfish."

   "Oh, yes, today is still a stormy day. These jellyfish are so active that they will get electricity when they see something. Usually they are quite docile and can be touched."

  —Jellyfish are so docile, they just have no brains.

  —and touch the jellyfish? Have you really touched those mine-hunting jellyfish before? !

   The ignorant Isengard stopped talking, but Master Goser told the captain: "Listen to him, sail southwest."
