The improved machine gun has now been manufactured, and Lin Xu set up a new platform on one side of the island and placed the machine gun on it.
After finishing these tasks, Lin Xu planned to ask Xiao Yu to continue studying the equipment.
Lin Xu also plans to conduct a thorough study on the small turboprops that enhance the island's flexibility and speed.
However, shortly after the two took out the blueprints, Xiaoyu suddenly frowned:
“Master, a large area of land and many creatures have appeared 5 kilometers to the southeast.”
Lin Xu's eyes flashed.
For a moment, he thought he had found Wang En's group, but after Xiao Yu carefully sensed the situation and explained it to him, he realized that the objects in front of him were not the island lord or the Sky Island.
In the distance, there was a dark creature.
However, this creature was one of his planned targets, so this encounter was not a coincidence.
Lin Xu then ordered Xiao Yu to change direction and rush towards the distant creature.
Before we even got close to the location, a series of piercing screeching sounds came from afar, like car horns, but even sharper and more shrill.
At a distance of 1,000 meters, there was a large patch of loose soil floating on the ground, and above the loose soil was a huge figure.
It was an orca, but it was at least 300 meters long and had a strange black nest on its head.
The orca was staring at Lin Xu and his island with its crimson eyes, making incessant calls, appearing full of hostility.
"It really is a female orca!"
Lin Xu killed the orca prince and was subsequently cursed, said to be hunted by a female dark orca.
It now seems that the mother beast, sensing the curse, has indeed blocked Lin Xu's path.
Lin Xu's island moved quite fast, but the orca mother, dragging a large amount of loose soil, moved at a similar speed, maintaining an almost constant distance from Lin Xu's island.
Before Lin Xu could observe the situation further, black light suddenly gathered above his island—the light of the Orca Prince's curse.
Upon seeing this light, the crimson in the eyes of the orca mother in the distance intensified, and she opened her enormous mouth, emitting trembling hisses.
Although Lin Xu didn't understand the language of orcas, he could tell that the female orca had realized that Lin Xu was the murderer who killed the orca prince, and was now enraged and about to attack.
Sure enough, after the mother beast roared, ripples appeared in the darkness of the void around it.
As if a black ocean surface had been ripped open, at least fifty orcas emerged from around the mother.
After these orcas appeared, they rushed towards Lin Xu's island without hesitation. Halfway there, black water began to condense in their mouths, turning the water into water blades.
"Xiaoyu, do it!"
Lin Xu can't fly yet, and his attacks can't reach that far.
Currently, the only weapon capable of hitting targets that far is the newly built machine gun.
Now that Xiaoyu can control the machine gun with her mind, she naturally became the number one machine gunner.
"Yes, Master!"
Xiaoyu answered seriously, her expression turning solemn. The next moment, the machine guns on the island platform suddenly turned their muzzles and aimed directly at the foremost orca.
boom!
The machine gun fired air cannonballs, but they still produced a loud roar, and the air cannonballs were quite powerful, traveling at high speed for a kilometer before hitting the orca's head.
Just like a watermelon bursting open, the orca was instantly reduced to fragments.
Compared to rotary machine guns, the cannon's shells are no less powerful; a single shot can kill an orca.
As the orcas charged and condensed water blades, Lin Xu's machine guns also began to fire continuously.
One orca after another burst open, and the water blades in their mouths naturally dissipated and disappeared.
By the time the orcas had finally prepared their water blades and rushed within a few hundred meters of the island, half of the dozens of orcas were already dead.
At this moment, the orca also let out a strange hiss, and the water blade in its mouth was finally released, slicing through the darkness of the void, rushing towards the island like a blade.
According to rumors, the power of the Dark Orca is such that the water blades in their mouths are strong enough to cut through land blocks and even destroy foundations.
However, Lin Xu's island is naturally different from ordinary islands. Even the weakest block has been stacked more than twenty times.
Lin Xu was confident that his blocks and base were sturdy enough to withstand the cutting of the water blades.
However, the peach trees and fish might suffer losses if hit by the water blade.
Lin Xu thought to himself that it would be necessary to construct some protective measures to prevent the island from suffering real losses if it were attacked.
But although he was distracted by these matters, he was not slow in issuing orders:
"Xiaoyu, stop those water blades from getting closer to the island!"
"Yes, Master!"
Xiaoyu nodded, and the next moment, the rotating machine gun that had been dormant suddenly roared out.
Previously, the rotary machine gun was not used because its range was not far enough to hit orcas.
But now, the orca's water blades are close enough, and this super firepower can finally be put to use.
The bullets rained down like a storm, streaking across the air in continuous red streaks.
The water blade that Xiaoyu aimed at and shot at was directly blasted past by the bullet.
The more than thirty water blades that were successfully condensed only flew a few dozen meters before they were all swept away, completely disintegrating into dark water streams, and then merging into the void and disappearing.
Compared to the insane rate of fire of a rotary machine gun, this water blade seems too primitive, with an attack speed that is too slow.
The charging orcas had already covered some distance and were approaching the island.
Seeing that the water blades were so easily broken, the orcas looked shocked. Then they all cried out, seemingly trying to reassemble the water blades.
Meanwhile, the mother beast in the distance roared again, seemingly conveying some command.
"Unfortunately, you no longer have the chance."
At this moment, Lin Xu spoke indifferently:
"Xiaoyu, eliminate these approaching orcas."
"yes!"
The rotating machine gun adjusted its angle again at this moment.
This time, the targets were naturally the orcas that were too close to the island and exposed to machine gun fire.
The massive machines, stacked a hundred times larger, unleashed the terrifying destructive power of human technology at this moment. Bullets, like roaring beasts, all charged towards the orcas, howling and lunging.
The next moment, the orcas, like broken toys, rapidly shattered into pieces in mid-air.
Sweeping through the bullets of the rotating machine gun, the orcas' supposedly formidable defenses proved useless, and their incredible speed turned them into corpses.
Lin Xu kept a close eye on the condition of the dead orcas.
Then he noticed that some debris had fallen off the orca.
Those are all orca back skins, and they're all top-quality pieces.
Lin Xu's eyes lit up:
"It seems these orcas aren't just summoned creatures, but real beings!"
Lin Xu looked at the mother beast in the distance, his eyes revealing the joy of catching his prey.
According to legend, a female orca will continuously summon and create followers until her life force is exhausted.
Although those followers are not necessarily all orcas, they are still relatively rare and powerful creatures.
Previously, Lin Xu didn't know whether these summoned creatures were considered real life forms, or whether they would drop items after being killed.
However, after personally verifying it, Lin Xu confirmed that the creatures killed in this way are still considered real creatures and can drop items.
Therefore, a thought naturally popped into Lin Xu's mind:
He didn't have to kill the mother orca instantly; he could have let her continue summoning and squeezed all her value out of her.
Thinking this, Lin Xu said to Xiao Yu:
"Give that mother beast a little intimidation, but don't kill it. I need it to continue summoning creatures!"
"yes!"
Xiaoyu agreed without hesitation. The next moment, the improved machine gun turned its muzzle and aimed at the void on the side of the mother beast.
The shells roared suddenly.
A gust of wind erupted around the mother orca, which had already been hit by artillery fire.
