Chapter 11 Battle Test! (6000 Word Chapter)
at dusk.
Sauron left the hotel with the little Vivian in his arms. Because of the last show of force, the group of Amazon women respected him a lot unintentionally. The other party also put away his excessive curiosity, and never asked Vivienne why she fell asleep from the beginning to the end. Assassins are people full of secrets, and people should not know too many secrets. The easier it is to be silenced. It was as if the priest Naga knew that Sauron was traveling with a sleeping little girl, but she never asked about it.
Secrets may not necessarily bring benefits, but they can easily lead to danger.
Especially an assassin's secret!
………………
Now that he decided to go to sea, Sauron naturally couldn't leave Vivienne in the hotel, and he didn't worry about the group of Amazon women. So he was going to transfer Vivian to the Ocean Temple. The Ocean Temple controlled more than half of the temple area. It was very easy to find a place to settle Vivian. The little girl didn't know how long she was going to sleep. Sauron felt that Vivienne's waking up should be directly related to his fusion of fear and divinity. The last time she woke up was almost after Sauron had completed the devouring of divinity.
An ancient house outside the Ocean Temple.
Sauron gently placed Vivienne on the bed, then stretched out his hand to hold her little hand, and said in a very low voice: "Try to control your divine power as much as possible, and don't easily reveal your identity as the Son of Fear."
"I'll be back soon, and it won't be long before you wake up."
"I promise!"
Although Vivienne showed no signs of waking up from the beginning to the end, Sauron could feel that she still had the perception of the outside world, which meant that Vivienne could hear him. Otherwise, there is no way to explain why as soon as he left the little girl, he automatically opened the divine power protection, and quickly retracted the energy protection force field after Sauron returned. Her strength is still in her body, but her consciousness seems to have entered a deep sleep for some reason, and there is no sign of waking up.
Sauron picked up the soft plush quilt and covered Vivian's body. Then he lay down next to her.
Tomorrow he was going to sea, and he needed a good rest.
Ocean Temple.
The figure of the Naga priest stood in front of a piece of blue sea water. Under the Ocean Temple, the underground sea water was connected, and he could directly enter the sea area from here. The sea water in front of him was slightly turbulent. Immediately, a long and narrow creature that looked a bit like a giant sea snake appeared. It swam up to the Naga priest bit by bit, then stood up slowly, and came to the high platform under the Ocean Temple. Only at this time did its appearance become clear, but it was a strong and ferocious male Naga guard.
Its tail was longer by Naga priests, and its thick arms held a trident. There were almost no human-like traces on its face, unlike the female Naga, which still had a female face outline. The length of the Naga guard reached six or seven meters. After standing upright, the height is about 2.4 meters. The muscles of the whole body are very developed. Seeing that it is full of pressure, it leans slightly and says, "Your Excellency."
"A call has been sent to the Naga group in the nearby sea area, and they will soon send out soldiers to respond."
Priest Naga nodded slightly, with a satisfied smile on his face, and said in a deep voice: "Very good. Dedanas. You will command the summoned warriors. We must take those treasures this time. The Temple of Storms seems to have Action, this wealth cannot fall into their hands, it will only strengthen the strength of our enemies."
"The Lord of Storms has always been coveting the great goddess of the ocean, trying to get his hands on the domain of the ocean."
The male Naga nodded, and said in a deep voice: "Your Excellency, I don't understand why you handed over the Deathwhisperer to that human commander. Although he is a powerful guy, there is only one person after all. Besides, his origin We don’t know, and we can’t fully trust him.”
Priest Naga frowned and glanced at it, his expression became a little weird, it seemed to be a cruel smile. He said coldly: "Are you questioning my decision? Didanas. Don't use your stupid head to try to guess my decision. That human is an assassin who is close to the legendary realm. Such a person will not know anything in battle. How much weaker than a legendary professional, he is worthy of our value. Besides, after I touched the energy absorbing spell on him, I felt that he has the breath of the legendary field."
"He should have mastered a bit of legendary level abilities, and he must be not far from being an advanced legendary assassin!"
"It's been nearly two or three hundred years. There have been very few assassins of the legendary level. If he can serve the Ocean God Temple, our enemies will wake up from the nightmare."
Legendary assassin.
If used to assassinate members of hostile forces, this is definitely a complete nightmare.
Priest Naga seemed to see the scene where Sauron turned into a sharp blade to wipe out dissidents for her. A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said slowly: "As for loyalty? There is no absolute loyalty in this world! As long as we can give it He can serve us by giving him the benefits he wants! This person has a lot of secrets, and he definitely needs us. Besides, he seems to have brought a sleeping little girl with him. Although I didn't go to test his secrets, but It can also be seen that he cares about this little girl very much, and the relationship between the two is very close. He has been hit by energy absorption, and that little girl is probably also hit by some weird spell."
"That little girl can also be our tool when necessary. Presumably he doesn't want any accidents to happen to that little girl, right?"
"As long as he has a weakness, we can control him."
The Naga priest showed a cruel smile, glanced at the male Naga guard in front of him, and ordered: "There are some things that you don't need to ask, now go and send shark people scouts to search for the traces of those betrayers. We must find those guys first, otherwise the wealth may attract more contenders!"
The male Naga guard leaned over slightly, and then dived into the sea water.
Priest Naga returned to the back of the Ocean God Temple. She swam to a pool and chanted a spell lightly. Immediately, the water in front of her eyes rippled like ripples. Sauron's figure gradually appeared, and next to him was Vivienne who was still sleeping. There was a strange light in Priest Naga's eyes, and he murmured: "Who are they? That little girl seems to be a natural magician? There have been a lot of powerful guys recently, and it seems that a group of adventurers have returned from the abyss? The goddess of the sea Recently, you have stopped answering my prayers. Is there something big going to happen?"
"Looks like I'm speeding up my preparations!..."
Priest Naga slowly closed his eyes, and then his whole body sank into the sea water.
Although the priests of the sea goddess possess great power, they cannot directly mobilize the sea race, because the secular and theocracy maintain relative boundaries. The kingdom of marine life is also somewhat similar to the human kingdom. Few temples will directly intervene in the internal affairs of the kingdom, because the kingdom is a very short-lived thing, but the gods have eternal life, and they do not want to be ruled by a kingdom that has risen and fallen for hundreds of years. implicated. The Naga Priest can mobilize the Naga Sea Clan in the nearby sea area, so I am afraid that her status in the secular world is not low.
It may be the royal family in the Naga clan. If members of the Naga royal family have no inheritance rights, they often become priests serving the goddess of the sea.
………………
A mist surrounds the sea.
Sauron's figure appeared 300 meters below the seabed. He stood on the deck of the Deathwhisperer, staring at the underwater world in front of him.
The ocean submerged him, but it didn't affect him at all, because he wore an emblem on his chest, which allowed him to breathe easily under the sea. On the deck of the Deathwhisperer are undrown sailors, naga banshees roam the hull, and shark-men undead patrol. There are a large number of bound spirits on this ghost ship, all of whom died directly and indirectly near the ghost ship. They cannot participate in the battle, but are forcibly sucked into the mast and sails of the hull. The power source of the ghost ship is these bound spirits. spirit.
There are as many as eight or nine hundred of them.
The real combat power is the Undead of the Undrowned, Naga Banshee, Wraith and Sharkman Undead.
Sauron silently calculated the distance in the sea area and the distance they traveled. The ghost ship is not suitable for being exposed to the eyes of ordinary people, so the Death Whisperer left the shallow sea area from the bottom of the sea.
"rise."
Sauron frowned and looked at the fish shoals around him. Because of the breath of death on the Death Whisperer, the fish shoals on the bottom of the sea immediately dispersed after encountering them. Fleeing in all directions in embarrassment. Following Sauron's orders. The undrown sailors began to control the ghost ship to rise, a little light appeared in front of the eyes during the slow rise, and then the blue sea water appeared above the head, and the Death Whisperer rushed out from the bottom of the sea amidst the rumbling sound.
Sauron looked around. Shen Sheng said: "Summon the mist. Don't let others see us."
A gray mist filled the air.
Within a few hundred meters around the Deathwhisperer, everything was shrouded in a mist. This is a natural ability of ghost ships, and the sea areas where they appear are often shrouded in fog. The fog on the sea is not small today. As the fog of the ghost ship spreads, everything nearby becomes hazy. The ship sails silently on the sea surface, and ghosts and undead do not like to be directly exposed to the sun. These undead sailors are indeed very powerful, but unfortunately their weaknesses are too obvious.
"captain."
A half-real Naga banshee came to Sauron, and said in a sharp voice: "I found the breath of a living person nearby."
It is the first Naga Banshee I have seen. It is an independent undead creature, not bound to a ghost ship.
living?
Met someone else so soon?
Sauron frowned and came to the helmsman's position, and then took out the binoculars to observe. He could vaguely see a large ship in the waters near an island. From a distance, he could see the sign on the flagpole, which was a hollow skull. There are swords and swords intertwined below, which is the most commonly used pirate symbol. If it is not for the special forces among pirates, ordinary pirates use this symbol. To use the special pirate flag, you must play your own name, otherwise you may be attacked by other pirates because of the wrong flag.
This is an unspoken rule.
It may seem insignificant, but it is indeed related to life.
There is a custom of dragon boat racing in the Central Plains, and flags are usually hung on the dragon boats, and this flag cannot be hung randomly, as it may attract other people to come and pull the flag. The black flag is a taboo in many local flags. In the past, there were serious casualties on the dragon boats flying out of the place because of the black flag. In the end, dragon boat rowing was banned for many years. When driving the dragon boat later. They all issued the same flag, and whoever dared to fly out with a black flag, the Armed Police Force personally sent people to pull out the flag, just because they were afraid that it would end up killing people.
Such things naturally do not exist in this world.
However, the flag has a lot of rules on the sea. Whether it's pirates, chambers of commerce, gangs, etc., flagging is serious business. The rules here are piled up with human lives one by one. In Sauron's memory, there were people who hung flags indiscriminately, and finally the entire guild was killed by pirates. Even the station on the land was kicked away overnight, and there was almost no living.
That guy is also trying to die, and he actually hangs a banner similar to the Pirate King!
From this point of view, the dangerous people in this world who live in the land, sea, and rivers are really a bit like people in the green forest and bandits.
There are certain rules that cannot be violated.
Flying flags in the pirates is like messing with the emblem of the temple. I don’t know that it’s your fate, but it’s normal to have cramps and skins.
………………
Looks like just normal pirates?
Sauron frowned and pondered for a moment, then shouted: "Get ready to fight!"
The pirate ship in front of him should be an ordinary pirate looking for a living on the sea. Those who have made their names have their own flags, and generally few people will pretend to be on it. If it is really a famous pirate, it must be displayed as much as possible, because this can avoid a lot of trouble, and even some special flags are supernatural items, and even sea monsters will not easily attack them after hanging them.
Sauron once took over a mission to sacrifice the flag.
But the place is not the south coast, and the target of the flag sacrifice is a legendary sea monster. 【Battle Banner of Worship】
"captain?"
The Naga Banshee came to Sauron. He said in a harsh voice: "The other party doesn't seem to be our target? Do you want to attack them?"
Sauron frowned and glanced at her, then nodded and said, "Yes. We need a battle test."
"never mind."
"You are ready to fight, I will deal with them in person. You are responsible for covering me, and be ready to board the ship and fight at any time."
Sauron intends to use them to practice, because he has not experienced a naval battle for a long time.
Combat is not just casually using a knife to slash people. There are different fighting styles in different environments. You fight on the sea, on a ship, and you fight on land is completely different, let's not talk about underwater battles. Just the battle on the ship is not easy. Because the hull will shake, and the combat environment is much narrower, if you are not careful, you may capsize in the gutter.
There were many people who died on it due to carelessness back then!
Sauron is a very cautious person, he doesn't want to die inexplicably because he is not suitable for hull combat.
Besides, he also needs to test and exercise his fighting skills.
Back then he could run on the water during naval battles. Almost a quasi-legendary combat power, and now he doesn't have so many specialties to support him. The way of fighting has also changed a lot.
clang!
Sauron looked at the undead around, frowned slightly, and then ordered in a deep voice: "Get the boat closer, don't get too close, come back after getting my signal."
thump!
Sauron jumped into the water directly, leaving behind the Naga Banshee who was a little stunned.
——"Fly!"
——"Advanced Stealth Technique!"
After drawing a sufficient distance, a gleam appeared in Sauron's eyes, and then he began to cast spells continuously to test his combat power on the sea.
Start counting time.
Sauron's brain began to operate like a sophisticated instrument, and under the cover of the mist, his figure flew directly from the sea water. With the advanced invisibility technique blessed on his body, Sauron disappeared directly into the air without leaving any traces on the spot. With a simple trick, Sauron's wet clothes dried, and then he began to approach the pirate ship. Sauron was flying at an altitude of about 100 meters, and his flying speed was not very fast. With the blessing of advanced invisibility, he could not see any traces at all.
Because he is now in stealth flying state!
Since he didn't have enough expertise to support him, Sauron couldn't cast spells and fight while flying, because his main energy was to maintain the flying spell.
Time is not very abundant.
Whether it is flying or advanced invisibility, the duration is calculated per minute.
Sauron must pursue the greatest victory within the duration of the magic spell!
The distance is getting closer little by little.
Everything on the pirate ship came into Sauron's field of vision. He saw twenty or thirty pirate sailors on the deck and lookouts on the mast. The helmsman in charge of steering the ship, etc. The strength of these pirates is not very weak, they are stronger than many city guards, and they belong to professionals around the second level, but most of them are fighters. Due to his pirate career, he prefers the fighting style of a wandering swordsman. Of all bandit enemies, pirates have the strongest combat effectiveness, completely surpassing bandits and bandits. Only desert horse thieves can compare.
A minute passed.
Sauron's figure began to descend. He has entered a stealth state, but it is the advanced invisibility that maintains his invisibility.
The distance gradually decreases.
Sauron stayed at a height of about ten meters on the pirate ship, and the light passed through his body. Unless he stared at his position carefully, he could see a little difference. The enemy in front of him was already very clear. The powerful pirates were bored on the deck, and the anchor seemed to be thrown down. These people seemed to be waiting for something. Sauron continued to lower the altitude. Then, in the corner of the bow where there was no one, it landed gently.
Five meters in front of him was a drinking pirate, but unfortunately the other party didn't notice it at all.
"Kill the important target first!"
Sauron glanced at the enemy in front of him, and finally locked on a one-eyed dragon who looked like the deputy captain. He sneaked over without a sound, and then stabbed the scimitar out from behind.
Pooh!
A stream of blood spattered, and Cyclops, who was scolding his subordinates loudly, looked at his chest in disbelief. His heart had already been pierced, and this pirate with a strength of around Tier 3 was killed on the spot.
"enemy!?……"
A large group of pirates panicked, followed by the sound of swords being drawn.
They couldn't see anything at all, they could only see a scimitar protruding from the chest of the one-eyed dragon, and then the scimitar was pulled out, and everything in front of them was still empty.
Sauron shook off the blood on the knife. At the moment of the attack, he showed slight traces, and then disappeared into the air again.
This is the advanced invisibility technique.
When he is in the state of advanced invisibility, attacking the enemy will not remove the invisibility.
Pooh!
A head was cut off by Sauron, and a certain bearded pirate heard the whistling wind of the knife. But he couldn't see the trace of swinging the knife. He clearly heard the sound of the wind and felt the slight movement of the enemy in front of him, but he couldn't see the direction in which the scimitar was coming, so he could only block it indiscriminately. Then the next moment his head was beheaded.
Three throwing knives were shot out.
The moment the flying knife left Sauron's palm, the traces were revealed. It's a pity that the enemy has no time to dodge.
Plop, plop, plop.
A series of bloody lights emerged, and Sauron entered and exited as if no one was in the land. In the blink of an eye, five people were beheaded by him. The enemy couldn't even judge the location of his attack. They could only feel a vague and hazy trajectory at high speed around them. move. This kind of fear made their morale extremely low, and some people were completely scared as if they had seen a ghost, and some even threw their weapons out.
Clang, clang!
Sauron swung his knife to block the thrown weapon, and at the same time revealed his approximate location.
He made a sudden jump and jumped directly to a height of five or six meters. The strong cable connecting the mast sank a lot. On the cable, he could see the outline of his palm, but he couldn't see the figure of a person. Sauron flew down in the air, holding a scimitar in each hand and slashing horizontally. In a large splash of blood, five people were beheaded by him in a row.
Large streams of blood gushed out.
Only at this time did bloody footprints appear on the ground. Sauron's figure was still hazy, and the blood stains on his body were also covered by advanced invisibility techniques, but he was now moved by a vague silhouette that could be judged by the enemy.
Too bad they found out too late.
Three minutes passed, and Sauron's figure stood amidst the blood all over the ground, surrounded by more than twenty corpses. There are a series of footprints on the ground, but he is still invisible.
The duration of the advanced invisibility technique is still about six minutes!
Sauron shook off the blood on the knife, then glanced at the cabin expressionlessly, grabbed a dead body and smashed it in, and then the two knives slashed through the invisible cold light, and the person guarding the back of the cabin Two enemies were cut in half.
Blood was all over his clothes.
The effect of the advanced invisibility technique seems to have been weakened a lot, and Sauron's figure gradually became more translucent and hazy.
It seems that the effect of the spell has weakened a little.
However, this was not too important to Sauron, because he found that he seemed to have the ability to kill all the pirates on the ship head-on.
