chapter 775: 246. dread scale nobles_3
however, after looking through the other party’s memory fragments, noland lee dispelled this idea.
the reason was simple. when the fat sea demon returned to its territory, it needed to ride a unihorn sea spirit whale, which was controlled by the wildtide elder.
the “tracking mark” noland lee had placed on the fat sea demon would most likely be discovered by the wildtide elder, who was comparable to a tenth ring battle wizard.
considering that he had already somewhat alarmed the wildtide elder before, noland lee decided not to take any more risks in tracking the sea demon using mental magic.
if the wildtide elder had some secret measures against mental magic, noland lee would suffer more loss than gain.
from the perspective of playing it safe, eliminating the fat sea demon and its slave soldiers in treasure sea no.149 was noland lee’s best choice.
after that, he could use underwater mechanos enchanted with “pressure relief” to collect the sunken spoils of war.
noland lee was determined and stopped thinking, focusing on his magic vision with undivided attention.
he quickly counted the number of slave soldiers under the fat sea demon.
a total of 213 sea demons. apart from the fat sea demon, the other 212 were all combat-specialized furious tide warriors.
the fat sea demon seemed unwilling to accept the fact that his trials had failed with so few soldiers left, so he waved his scepter and gave a speech, then issued a command through the conch.
all of the furious tide warriors followed the fat sea demon closely, coming to a location 30 meters below the water surface, entering an ambush state.
noland lee raised his eyebrows as he knew these guys were not giving up and still planned to ambush passing oceanic fleets.
even if there are not enough sea demons, the fat sea demon just wants to have a try to stop at least one ship.
this would be the fat sea demon’s estimated action plan.
noland lee figured out the fat sea demon’s thoughts.
he threw several “tracking marks” consecutively in the direction where the oceanic fleet was coming from.
after more than 10 continuous jumps of magic vision, noland lee found the oceanic fleet about 10 kilometers north of treasure sea region no.149.
“hiss… this is going to be a bit difficult,” noland lee stared at the fleet within his magic vision.
due to the nearby mist threshold reaching as high as 80 kilometers per hour, the fleet’s sailing speed was extremely fast, almost at full speed on the dim sea.
it was also likely that the captain wanted to pass through the dangerous sea area quickly for this reason.
in any case, in no more than 10 minutes, this oceanic fleet would arrive at the ambush location of the sea demons.
now, it was difficult for noland lee to eliminate all of the sea demons before the fleet arrived using his pre-set plan d.
however, upon thinking about it, noland lee suddenly realized that he didn’t actually need to annihilate all of the sea demons.
what he came for wasn’t to put down the evil forces but the sea demons’ soul fragments and valuable materials on the pirate ship.
aren’t these two things now lying at the bottom of the sea?
noland lee could simply take advantage of the sea demons’ distraction while they fight with the fleet and collect the soul fragments at the bottom of the sea first.
after all, soul fragments could only last half an hour.
noland lee adjusted his course of action.
he took out the pre-prepared underwater mechanos from his magic pouch.
these small, triangular fish-like creatures were agile and fast in the water.
activated by noland lee, they whistled through the sea water and headed towards the direction of the pirate ship wreckage.
of the 100 “tracking marks” noland lee used to destroy the array nodes, only a small number were destroyed due to damage to the ship’s hull, while the rest were still working properly.
while sensing the direction of the “tracking marks”, noland lee directed the underwater mechanism elf to swim straight towards the location.
since “tracking marks” do not emit light, noland lee could only wait for the luminescent array-equipped underwater mechanism elf to arrive before he could see the sunken ship clearly.
the time passed as the oceanic fleet neared its ambush location and the underwater mechanism elf hurried on its way.
just as the oceanic fleet had just entered treasure sea no.149, noland lee’s underwater mechanism elf found the location of the sunken ship.
the 10 pirate ships made of magic metal had their hulls shattered, fragmented, and inserted into the soft sea-bottom sand and stones, stirring up a large patch of blurry sea sand.
the rays of light emitted by the underwater mechanism elf penetrated through the slowly sinking sea sand and formed light columns in the murky sea water.
countless severed limbs and debris drifted under the rays of light.
noland lee ignored the horrifying underwater scene.
