Chapter 427: Sea Demon

The ship was shaking slightly.


It could be seen that the waves supporting the ship were gradually surging, so that a certain seasick person could not even get out of bed. Without the time to care about Wilick, Allen carried the saber sheath and Roger onto the deck of the ship. From afar, a huge bag of water could be seen rising from one end of the horizon. When the water balloon expanded to its limit, it exploded, spraying tons of seawater into the air and then raining down.


A shadow rushed out of the sea and jumped high above the surface of the sea. It has wide winged fins that cover palm-sized scales and refract sunlight into colors. Like a bat fish, a row of big and small eyeballs were rolling up and down on its head. Within the wide open mouth, there were layers of sharp nest teeth. The depths of the giant mouth were completely dark, as if it was an abyss that led to hell.


After passing through a nearly perfect arc in midair, it dived into the water again. However, it pushed up a sea wall and whistled towards Pearl Island.


The ship shook and the people on the deck could hardly stand.


One of them cried out in despair, "It's over. It's really a sea demon. Why are you touching a Shanghai demon here?"


"Mr. Roger, what is that?" Alan turned around and asked.


"Are you talking about sea demons?" Roger smiled bitterly and said, "That's the last monster we want to encounter. It's a monster raised by the Naga Clan. It's their guardian god. But the sea monster has always lived in the Naga Clan's sacred land, the Nether River Corridor. Why would it appear here? And it's coming in the wrong direction … because the Nether River Corridor should be on that side!"


Roger pointed towards the northwest, which was almost the opposite of where the sea demon was coming from!


Allen frowned, "But now it's coming for us. Is there a weapon to deal with such a thing?"


"Only the battleships of the Empire Navy have enough force to suppress it. As for merchant ships like ours, they can only tickle it at best." Roger smiled bitterly.


At this moment, a sailor screamed, "Here we go again! Here we go again!"


About ten kilometers away from Pearl Island, dangerous species emerged from the sea once again. However, this time, it did not leap into the blue sky as if it were flying. Instead, it only floated out of the sea and stood still. However, there was a mysterious Origin Energy fluctuation coming from the surface of the sea. At the same time, the seawater was slowly retreating. It was still noon, but a strange phenomenon of tidal reversal had appeared.


"What's going on … It's just like before the tsunami." Roger frowned and said, "Maybe we should take refuge on the island."


Ellen looked at an island with no high-rise buildings and shook his head. "There's no difference between here and on the island. What's that thing going to do? Wait, it's not sucking in the sea, is it?"


The ebb tide in the seawater stopped quietly after nearly a minute. The dangerous species on the surface of the sea raised their heads and suddenly opened their mouths, spitting out a water dragon from their gigantic mouthparts!


The water dragon spun wildly, creating a trench on the surface of the sea. The sea water was spread out to both sides, and the white waves were like wings. Amidst the sky-shaking rumbling sound of a cannon piercing through the air, the water dragon pierced through the atmosphere and slashed across the island on the left side of Pearl Island. Immediately, an endless series of explosions erupted. The island was like a fragile glass that burst open. The earth, rocks, trees, houses, and people everywhere the water dragon passed were all lifted up, thrown away, and shattered!


After one strike, only two-thirds of Pearl Island was left. The island that was sliced by the water dragon turned into countless fragments that floated away with the sea …


"This is like a high-powered cannon" Alan exclaimed. With such a powerful shot, the lake monster they encountered on the Wilderness Highlands had a similar ability. However, in terms of range, this sea demon was slightly superior.


At this time, the seawater began to ebb. Allen said in a deep voice, "That guy is indeed absorbing the sea water. Then he uses a certain section of water to pressurize the sea water. That spurts out a column of water that looks like a high-pressure cutting wave. Damn it, we don't have any weapons that can attack him at such a distance."


"How could there be such a long-range weapon?" Roger smiled bitterly. "There's probably nothing we can do now. The monster only needs to attack again. The island and we will suffer. I'm sorry, Lord Allen. I didn't expect this to happen."


"Now is not the time to give up." Ellen shouted, "Mountain King warriors, come to the bow of the ship. Use your shields to form the first line of defense. Listen, Inch Fire warriors, unleash the Glory Barrier. No one is allowed to give up until the last moment!"


Then, he walked to the front of the ship, the saber sheath paused, and he took out Qianjun from the saber sheath. The soldiers behind them gathered. A soldier shouted, "Sir, please go to the back."


"That won't do." Allen held Qianjun in his hand and said, "As a general, how can you hide behind him?"


"That's right, only the weak need to seek refuge. Strong people are always born from desperate situations!" Regis stood beside Allen with his sword and Star Saber. josei


'"There's me, too" Wilick crawled out of the cabin with all his might, but his fighting spirit was no match for the natural reaction of his body. He lay on the railing and spat again.


Belmond and Kira silently arrived behind Allen. They looked at each other and then focused on the front.


The sea level rose slightly, and the giant beast opened its mouth again. This time, there was no deviation, and a high-pressure water hose sprayed straight towards the dock!


"Coming. Everyone, prepare!" Allen shouted loudly, and at the same time, a seal appeared. The Origin Energy rumbled, and orange brilliant flames pierced through his body, pointing straight at the sky.


As if responding to his fighting spirit, the blade of the Thousand Average Blade buzzed and trembled. Alan held the knife in both hands and raised it high above the top.


At this moment, the water dragon rushed over, and just the wind pressure pushed the sea water and the ship back. At this moment, the heavy saber in Allen's hand continuously slashed, and the blade spat out streaks of profound yellow flame power towards the water dragon. Seven streaks of light appeared right in front of the water dragon, but they still charged forward a hundred meters. Suddenly, they exploded, transforming into countless streams of water that shot in all directions. However, this high-pressure water stream was directly slashed by Yan Shan Qi Sha!


However, when the water was slashed by Alan, the shockwave still carried a shattered waterline like a barrage of machine guns as it descended into the space within a few hundred meters. In front of Alan, a black fog wall was uprooted, silently storing all the powerful water lines that shot towards him. As for the other water lines that landed on the ship's hull, they were blocked by the Origin Energy shields that the Mountain King and the Inch Fire squadron had set up together.


However, the defensive range of the Origin Energy Shield could only barely protect the space around the bow of the ship. As for the middle and rear parts of the ship, they were riddled with holes by the water lines that filled the sky, causing the Paradise to become riddled with holes.


But no matter what, the Paradise survived this terrifying attack. Not only them, but even the island behind the dock was spared. It took the sailors a moment to know how to cheer in their dreams.


"Don't be happy too quickly." Alan muttered.


Sparks of water rose up in the sea ahead, and the sea demon was breaking through the waves. It seemed that the two high-pressure water currents had also consumed quite a bit of its Origin Energy. It no longer used this terrifying cannon-like attack. Instead, it flapped its wings and split the water. The sea demon moved very quickly on the surface of the water. In just a few breaths, it had already approached the dock. Large waves rose out of thin air and shook the ships on the dock.


Allen and the others felt as if their feet were nailed to the deck. No matter how much the ship shook, no one fell. However, the others didn't have this ability. The Mountain King and Inch Fire's warriors were shaken to the ground on the deck, unable to set up any more shields. As for Wilick, he spat out white foam and almost fainted.


When it was several hundred meters away from the dock, the sea demon first dived into the water, and then soared into the sky when it appeared. He brought along Lian Tianhai's wall and broke through the water. It took a turn in midair, its mouth wide open to the limit, pouncing towards the ship below. Judging from this situation, he intended to directly use brute force to destroy the ship. If they landed in the water, even experts like Allen would not be able to display half of their abilities, and they would only become the food of the sea demons at that time.


Seeing this dangerous situation, Allen raised Qian Jun and said, "Everyone, let's go together!"


Belmond waved his hand and the shadow behind him rushed up. It turned into a thick black mist in midair and rolled up. In the middle of the journey, pitch-black throwing knives continuously shot out from the black mist. These throwing knives were formed from black mist, and their edges were constantly trembling, causing the air to buzz. The mist instantly turned into hundreds of flying knives. The rain of knives collided with the Shanghai Demon, causing its scales to fly everywhere and blue blood to splatter everywhere!


"Regis, can you seal its movements? Even in a flash." Shouted Alan.


Regis grinned, "If I can't even do this, I won't have the face to go back to see my grandfather!"


With a single finger of his sword, he immediately turned into light and left. A dazzling flash shot straight into the sky. The moment it passed the sea demon, another azure river of stars crossed the sky, forming a huge cross with the silver flash from before.


Southern Cross!


The sea demon endured the double impact of the sword qi and saber light and was instantly unable to move in midair. At this time, Allen raised Qianjun high up on the ship, and the heavy saber turned into a dark yellow light. Wisps of green smoke rose from the deck around Allen, and the air suddenly rose several degrees. Alan leaned down and bounced up, causing a blazing wave of air to explode. The bow of the ship was even slightly pressed down by him, while he himself charged towards the sea demon in midair like a cannonball.


Qianjun broke through the air, and the blade carried a faint wisp of green smoke in the air. Azure smoke drifted towards the sea demon and gently stroked its body. Suddenly, the Southern Cross exploded, turning into shattered pieces of light. The sea demon's entire body trembled, and then a thin crack appeared on its back. Then, it spat out orange flames from the crack. Skyfire sprayed out, forming a curtain of fire that fluttered like a banner in midair!


The sea demon let out a miserable scream. It was wrapped in the heavenly fire and fell into the sea like a giant fireball, causing a thick pillar of water to explode. When Alan landed on the ship, Qianjun's blade lightly touched the deck. The deck suddenly burst into flames and wrapped Alan in it. In the flames, Alan stood up, leaving behind a silhouette of the fire.
