Chapter 74: The Sky of the Arctic Ocean
At the last second, Anson Lu wisely covered his ears with his hands to prevent his eardrums from being torn apart by the ensuing loud noise.
"boom!!"
"roar!!"
Raging flames and beams of green light intertwined and rushed out, aiming directly at the iceberg which was only twenty meters away.
They were like two wild beasts from hell, chasing each other, vying for the lead and rushing around on the fleeting track. In the end, they crossed the finish line side by side, roaring into the air.
Whether it was Qinghong's royal light or the red dragon's angry flame, both hit the surface of the iceberg at the same time.
"Bang!!!"
Deafening.
Thousands of pieces of ice fell onto the surface of the Atlantic Ocean like a rainstorm. The ice chips fell on Anson Deer's hair like snow, and a bright red panel popped up in front of his eyes.
[Iceberg volume: 100% → 16%]
[Current Destruction Ratio Panel]
[NO.1——Anson Lu (former chess player): Destruction accounts for 45%]
[NO.2——Uesugi Asuka (Scarlet Dragon Wing): Destruction accounts for 39%]
"I can't do it anymore." Asuka Uesugi returned to her original state.
In this round of cooperative output, she dealt an output close to that of Anson Deer's combo, but at the same time she also exhausted her mana.
To be honest, Anson Lu was still a little bit incredulous when he saw the destructibility panel.
Originally, he thought that the "Scarlet Dragon Wing" career sequence was just like that, an enhanced version of a warrior, useless, but he didn't expect Asuka to come up with such explosive AOE damage.
[The Titanic is about to hit the iceberg. There are still 20 seconds left. If the iceberg cannot be destroyed within 20 seconds, the second half of the third stage of the copy will be declared a failure! ]
"Where's your shark?" Asuka Uesugi panted and turned to look at Anson Lu. "Don't hide it at this time."
Anson Lu had been paying attention to the system notification sound. He shrugged and made a bad joke:
"How could it be hidden? I arranged it from the beginning, and the little flying fish came--"
[After 20 seconds of growth, the attributes of the floating fish in the tank have changed subtly - Strength: 38→40; Agility: 38→40; Intelligence: 0→0]
[The floating fish in the tank has grown to its full size, and the floating shark is about to appear. 】
“Snap!”
At this moment, the sound of the fish tank breaking was heard, followed by a deafening roar.
"roar!"
It was a giant black shark with a body length of nearly four meters. Its body was surrounded by gray light, and its exposed fangs were as sharp as steel blades, as if it could bite through a telephone pole with ease.
[Chess name: Floating Crazy Shark]
[Chess type attributes - Strength: 43 (3 points for chessboard bonus); Agility: 40; Intelligence: 0]
During this time, the Titanic and the iceberg are getting closer, but the chess field remains fixed at the origin, so Anson's deer will slowly move out of the range of the chess field.
Even in this situation, he couldn't order the floating shark to rush towards the iceberg, because the iceberg was outside the chess field from the beginning.
But there is another method, a method that Anson Deer had experimented with earlier.
His sequence skill "King Protection" can be used outside the range of the chess field.
In addition, the chess pieces recalled by the king protector can survive outside the chess field for 60 seconds.
It is this special mechanism that can ensure Anson Deer's personal safety during the cooling period of the "chess domain".
Therefore, at this critical juncture, he can use this skill to bring the floating shark onto the iceberg.
Seeing the broken iceberg getting closer and closer, the tide that hit the iceberg and flowed back was hitting the Titanic's hull wildly.
"Asuka, can you still move?"
"It is possible, but no, I suddenly remembered that your chess pieces cannot leave the chess field!"
"I can get out, but I need you to take me to the iceberg, quickly!" said Anson Deer.
"Okay, if that doesn't work, I'll just leave you alone on the iceberg!"
Asuka Uesugi took a deep breath, and her body transformed into a dragon again. She grabbed Anson Deer's shoulders with her dragon claws, fluttered her majestic wings, and shot her huge body towards the iceberg in front.
In just two seconds, it arrived right above the iceberg and threw Anson's deer down from the sky.
At this moment, Anson Lu was isolated and helpless. All his chess pieces could only stay in the chess field, watching helplessly as the master of this big resentful species bravely crossed the iceberg, but he could do nothing to help.
Just as Anson Deer was about to fall to the middle of the iceberg, he shouted:
"King Guard, recall the chess piece - the floating shark!"
The next moment, a gray light flashed by, and the huge shark fell from the sky. It caught Anson Deer on its back. Anson Deer held on to its dorsal fin tightly to prevent itself from slipping down.
"Shit." Anson Lu panted heavily, his heart beating wildly, "If I didn't catch it, I would be dead."
He quickly opened the chess panel of the Floating Crazy Shark and looked at the skill bar.
Before this, Anson Lu had never seen the chess type panel of "Floating Crazy Shark".
He had only seen the chess board of "Floating Fish in a Tank", so he didn't know what kind of skills the Floating Shark had - the "bite to pieces" that Anson Deer mentioned last time was just pure talk, and what was actually displayed was the ordinary attack of the Floating Shark.
At this moment, Anson Deer's dark brown eyes quickly scanned the panel.
His pupils trembled slightly, and he complained wildly in his heart - damn, wait, why is this skill called "Spiral Piercing"!
He was holding tightly onto the dorsal fin of the floating shark when he suddenly felt a strong sense of uneasiness.
This kind of uneasiness is like looking down from the sky before riding a roller coaster, and seeing that the roller coaster is about to fall from the top of the track.
Despite this, Anson had no other choice, after all, the Titanic was about to hit the iceberg!
He gritted his teeth, held the hard dorsal fin tightly with both hands, and growled loudly:
"Floating Crazy Shark, use your skill on this iceberg - Spiral Piercing!"
The next moment, the floating shark, pulled by the gray light, floated towards the sky above the iceberg.
“Bang!”
Then, it fell down at a terrifying speed, and its whole body began to spin violently, like a black gyroscope, with terrifying streams of light splashing out.
Of course, it wasn't just the iceberg that suffered, but also the Anson deer on the shark's back.
The world was spinning.
Everything has changed.
Anson Deer realized that he couldn't hold the dorsal fin of the floating shark. Before the floating shark reached its maximum speed, he let go of his hands and prayed sincerely to God:
“Amen—”
The next second, Anson Deer was thrown out by the floating shark.
"Xiao Long Nu! Are you offline? Save. Life. Ah——"
The boy's almost enunciated roar shook the entire Atlantic sky. Flocks of seagulls flew past him, and their thousands of light and white shadows were hazy and blurred.
In the sky, people are flying and dragons are laughing.
“Here it comes!”
The red dragon flapped its wings and swooped down towards Anson Deer in mid-air, making him land on its back, then retreated back to the Titanic.
At this time, the floating shark had gone completely crazy. It was like a pitch-black electric saw, crushing everything it passed into dust and motes. Violent ice rain shook the Atlantic Ocean!
“Ka-!!!”
“Ka——!!!”
It was as powerful as an ice shaver in operation. Within just five seconds, the broken iceberg was crushed into layers of fragments by this shark-shaped ice shaver and sank into the sea.
[Iceberg volume: 16% → 0%]
