Chapter 218: Gatekeeper, Sword of Darkmos (asking for monthly ticket)
Bryggen wharf, Bergen, Norway.
The crows in the sky suddenly became agitated, emitting a series of hoarse cries, like a dark cloud rushing through the dark night. The sea also began to rise and fall, and the waves hitting the harbor rose more than twice as high. The amplitude continued to rise, as if a tsunami was about to hit.
"The legendary whale 'Chicanao'... is coming."
After Qi Yuanli finished speaking, the eleven members scattered on the dock all raised their heads and looked at the huge shadow sweeping in from the horizon.
It shattered the half shadow of the moon reflected on the sea, and instead occupied everyone's sight with an unreasonable attitude. The huge waves roared in, and the sound of the waves almost covered the entire Bryggen Pier.
An Lunsi put his hands in his suit pockets, couldn't help but whistled, and praised softly:
"Bravo!"
The hacker patted his butt, dusted off his jumpsuit, and stood up from behind the mast of the fishing boat.
He turned around and warned the team members on the dock, "At this rate, the legendary whale will probably approach us in ten minutes. I have already sent you the list of the Royal Court team via mobile phone. Please check it one last time. Don't take it lightly."
"The little brat has a pretty loud voice." The Blood Descendant said calmly.
"Stop making so much noise, you old woman who's always chasing after love." The hacker raised his dead fish eyes and looked at her with contempt.
At this time, Xia Pingzhou was lying on the fence with an expressionless face. He silently ate the last piece of reindeer sausage and threw the fork and plastic bag into the trash can.
Then he opened his phone and took a look at the photos and list sent by the hacker.
1. Captain: Ruth (with long sea-blue hair and sapphire earrings): in control of the generational anecdotes "Titanic" and "Loch Ness Monster".
2. Louis (brown curly hair, wearing glasses): controls the generational wonder "The Tower of Babylon".
3. Kuki Suya (a Japanese with a buzz cut): He controls the generational wonder “One Hundred Demons Night Parade”.
4. Direjie (spiky hair, broken eyebrows): controls the generation-level wonder "Tunguska Explosion".
5. Ke Ojiena (with a bun and dark circles under her eyes): controls the generational wonder "Bermuda Triangle".
6. Ryan (black hair, golden eyes, messy long hair, and a beard): controls the generational wonder "The Sword in the Stone".
Xia Pingzhou scanned the information but did not see Li Qingping's photo.
He looked up from his phone and looked at the hacker on the deck: "Where's Red Dragon? Why is there no information about him on it?"
The hacker said calmly, "According to the information the leader got from an unknown collaborator, Red Dragon is on our side this time, and everyone has seen him at the auction, so there's no need to introduce him further, right?"
Bai Tanlang frowned, "Cooperate with the dragon at the auction house...Are you sure?"
He obviously had not forgotten the scene of his last fight with the red dragon at the mirror auction, and of course he could not believe that Li Qingping would become their partner.
"Stop talking nonsense... What are the captain's orders?" The Ripper stood up from the wooden house in the corner of the harbor and walked over.
A crow flew through the night and landed on the fishing boat. Qi Yuanyuan exchanged places with the crow and appeared on the deck. He sat on the railing with his back hunched, turned his head to look at the shadow of the legendary whale, and said to the eleven members who were scattered on the dock:
"No one from the Wangting team will be left alive."
The Ripper chuckled, summoned out his sword, and looked down at the shining blade. "Then I feel relieved... I just want to test my current strength, and I'm worried about not being able to find an opponent."
The girl in kimono stood up from the public wooden chair at the pier, finally stopped practicing typing on her mobile phone, put the phone back into her sleeve, and then slowly walked to Xia Pingzhou's side.
She said, “When we get back, let’s take the cable car together.”
"Then don't die." Xia Pingzhou looked back at her.
"the same as you."
Tong Zizhu held his cheeks with both hands, leaned his elbows on the railing, turned his head and looked at them: "Do you all like to do this before taking action? Why does it feel like the probability of sudden death has suddenly increased?"
Bernardo put one hand in the pocket of his white windbreaker, adjusted the one-way mirror with the other hand, and smiled slightly.
"That's good about being young." His eyes wrinkled.
After a while, a long whale cry suddenly came from the horizon, and then the sea surface was split into two, and a giant creature slowly emerged from the huge ravine like a valley.
Xia Pingzhou stared carefully at the monster that emerged from the sea.
It was a whale with a whole body of ochre red. It was slowly rising from the huge whirlpool, carrying with it the rolling waves that swept in from the corner of the horizon. Its deep and empty eyes examined the Bryggen Pier, like a god overlooking the human world from the sky.
The ochre-red whale in front of us was estimated to be two hundred meters long, which was comparable to the length of a Tennessee-class battleship.
The legendary whale - "Chicanao", this is the second time Ji Minghuan has seen this whale.
The first time was at the port of Lijing, when he followed Li Qingping and watched him enter the whale's mouth. If I remember correctly, there would be a gatekeeper at the whale's mouth.
The next moment, the ochre-red giant whale slowly opened its mouth.
From its bottomless pit-like mouth, a transparent staircase as if made of glass extended out, and then an old man in butler's clothes walked out slowly with his hands behind his back.
The moment he saw the twelve figures, he suddenly summoned an atlas from the void, held it in his palm, opened a page, pulled out a card, and crushed it.
As the card shattered, a huge oval glass barrier enveloped the world within a radius of hundreds of meters.
The hacker raised his eyebrows and said with interest, "Popular-level anecdote fragment - 'Cognitive Shielding Barrier'. Every time the legendary whale lands, its whale mouth gatekeeper will use this card to prevent this smelly and large whale from being discovered by the residents of the human world."
Andrew raised his head, stared at the gatekeeper in the whale's mouth, and scratched the stubble on his chin.
He murmured, "The gatekeeper, I heard about it from Lan Duoduo... I always feel that this kind of person doesn't look simple. Could it be a setting similar to the 'sweeping monk'?"
Robert spread his hands and said, "If that was the case, I wouldn't be at the bottom of the group and be teased by you guys as 'door opener' every day."
The old man in the whale's mouth slowly lowered his head, put his hands behind his back, and glanced at the twelve figures scattered on the dock. Then he sighed and scratched his snow-white temples.
"I'm sorry... My name is 'Nabis', and I'm the gatekeeper of this small garden. I can't let you pass through here."
The gatekeeper said, calling out the oddities atlas, taking out an orange card from it and holding it in his hand, "Even if it costs me this old, worthless life."
The next moment, the gatekeeper crushed the cards in his hand.
An orange light pattern flashed in the air, and then a huge sword suddenly appeared above the giant whale. It was estimated to be fifty meters long and ten meters wide. If it fell from such a height, it would probably be enough to destroy a skyscraper.
"A first-generation curiosity - 'Sword of Damocles'." Urushi Yuanyuan said expressionlessly, "I see... To be chosen as the gatekeeper of the small garden, one needs to have some strength."
He took out a playing card from the gap between his index and middle fingers, and a flock of crows drifted forward from the tail of his windbreaker. At the same time, the huge sword suspended in the air suddenly moved, and fell down with a whistling sound in the air.
Strong winds blew down from the sky, and the air pressure on the entire dock seemed to drop by one point.
Bai Tanlang raised his head and stomped hard on the deck of the fishing boat. His body flew into the sky like a cannonball. In a blink of an eye, he had turned into a giant wolf several dozen meters long, with a light like polar day blooming in his pupils that were raised high.
The Daytime Wolf howled and raised its head, its two hind legs dug into the decks of two fishing boats, and its two front legs held the sword to stop the giant sword from falling.
At the same time, a crow spread its wings and flew into the whale's mouth. When the gatekeeper Nabis came to his senses, Qi Yuanyuan had already appeared behind him. A playing card passed through the gap between his index finger and middle finger and lightly scratched the gatekeeper's neck, and then a bright line of blood spurted out.
The gatekeeper slowly knelt on the ground. His expression remained calm, but the color in his eyes gradually became turbid and empty.
“It’s useless… You bunch of inhumane thieves cannot defeat the Royal Court team.” Lying in the whale’s mouth, the gatekeeper lowered his head and spoke hoarsely.
Blood spurted out from his neck, forming a pool of blood under him.
Qi Yuanli did not respond, nor did he even glance at the scene outside the whale's mouth. He just put away the playing cards between his fingers, put his hands into the pockets of his black windbreaker, and walked silently into the whale's belly.
The group members followed him and headed towards the depths of the whale's mouth.
On the dock, the Ripper's dark red sword transformed into a huge sickle, shot up from the fence of the dock, and stepped on the bottom of the Sword of Darkmos.
She swung the sickle, embedding the sharp tip of the blade into the inner body of the giant sword, and then ran upwards on the surface of the Sword of Darkmos, as if running on the surface of a skyscraper, and her figure turned into a dark red meteor rushing upwards.
In an instant, the sickle in his hand created a huge crack in the center of the fifty-meter-long sword.
Then Bai Tanlang roared angrily and exerted force with both arms. The crack in the center of the Sword of Darkmos continued to expand, and finally it was torn in two halves and fell into the dark sea, causing a white wave.
Finally, the broken sword of Darkmos was swallowed by the surging waves and sank to the bottom of the sea.
The Wolf of Daylight slowly transformed into his original form and wiped the sweat off his forehead with the back of his hand. The fishing boat beneath him was shaky and about to sink to the bottom of the sea. White Greedy Wolf leaned over to pick up the clothes on the deck and put them on. He turned his head and looked around, only to see that the other members of the group had already entered the whale's mouth. The Bryggen Pier was empty.
It seemed that everyone thought that he and the Ripper were enough to clean up the mess, and no one even stayed to take a second look at the two of them.
The girl in school uniform fell from the sky and landed on the railing of the fishing boat. The sickle in her hand had turned into a slender sword. With her hair flying, she held down the hem of her black and white skirt and turned to Bai Tanlang and asked:
"good?"
"You talking to me?"
Bai Tanlang sneered coldly, and the wounds on his body began to heal at a high speed.
"Let's go then... this boat is about to collapse." The Ripper warned, looking down at the fishing boat that was already half-submerged in the sea.
Bai Tanlang moved and jumped into the whale's mouth with the Ripper, walking towards the bottomless whale belly.
