Chapter 173 Different races have different concepts of time
Things shouldn’t be like this.
On the Tornado, Captain Mung Gray River looked at the dazzling meteor in the sky with a very ugly expression.
"Where did this wizard come from?"
The Nine Rings Magic Meteor Explosion, even though it is the well-known shame of the Nine Rings, ordinary magicians of the Shame School cannot perform it.
He knew all the strong men in the Silent Night Pirates. Why did a legendary wizard who could use meteor blast suddenly appear among these undead? What went wrong? Mung Gray River looked at the falling meteor, and his memory began to flicker like a revolving lantern.
He has always been the most outstanding among his peers. At a young age, he was blessed by the Lord of Storms and became the youngest storm priest. His control over thunder far exceeded that of his peers. Then he started from suppressing bandits and was promoted all the way until he became a member of the Wrath of Tide Navy. He also made contributions in the war against the Emerald Forest and finally became the captain of the Storm.
In the entire Kingdom of Rage, there are no more than thirty warships like the Gale, and Mung Grey River once again became the youngest captain.
But then, his life began to go downhill.
All of this is to blame on these undead pirates.
The Silent Night Pirates are a group of undead pirates with a history of at least a thousand years, and they own hundreds of ghost ships. The Kingdom of Raging Tide has suffered greatly from them. They have tried to encircle and suppress this group of pirates countless times, but each time was in vain.
Because these ghost ships can dive into the deep sea, these undead can lie on the seabed for several years without any impact. The best swimmers in the Kingdom of Fury can't survive underwater for a few hours, so they have no way to deal with this group of undead pirates.
Fortunately, for some unknown reason, the Silent Night Pirates never go ashore. If they started attacking the city, the Angry Tide Kingdom would be in real trouble.
Mung Gray River was young and energetic. He was very concerned about this notorious pirate group. He had tracked this group of pirates many times. The two sides fought many times, and Mung Gray River lost more than he won.
But what is embarrassing is that even with such a record, Mung Gray River became a "famous general" of the Kingdom of Angry Tide.
Being able to occasionally gain some advantage over this group of undead is already a very rare achievement.
Mung Grey River received many awards, but he was always unhappy because he could not accept such a group of pirates over the kingdom. Perhaps it was because of this unwillingness that he made many contributions to the kingdom.
He improved his own Gale, making the warship faster and more solid; he invented a new type of detection magic that could detect ships on the sea surface on a large scale through changes in sea tides and storms at sea; he joined forces with many storm priests to create many new types of strategic magic, and the destructive thunder magic circle that is about to take shape is his masterpiece.
These things are all prepared for the Silent Night Pirates.
Phil was originally sailing on the seabed with his fleet, but Amber's early arrival forced him to leave the main force, surface and speed up.
Phil's solo action was immediately recorded by the sea breeze and tides and told to Mung Gray River.
A ghost ship broke away from the fleet and headed towards the west coast of Cuimeng Youlin.
Mung Gray River chased after him without any hesitation.
This couldn't be a trap, because the Silent Night Pirates never used any tactics when fighting. They were just a group of bloodthirsty sharks, surrounding their prey and biting them fiercely, and then diving into the deep sea and disappearing without a trace.
According to relevant records, there is no record of this pirate group ever playing any tricks against the Angry Tide Kingdom. They just fought head-on. If they could win, they would plunder. If they couldn't win, they would just run away.
Sure enough, the ghost ship rammed into the ship recklessly and started a boarding battle.
This is exactly the plot that Mung Gray River likes to see the most. As long as he sacrifices those ordinary warships and waits for him to complete this magic circle of destructive thunder, he can destroy the ghost ship in one blow and will not give him the opportunity to dive into the deep sea.
Everything was going smoothly and the magic circle was almost completed.
However... fate played a joke on him.
Four flaming meteors fell on the Tornado one after another.
The first one was blocked by the force field shield on the Tornado, but the shield was also covered with cracks. The second one directly smashed through the shield and landed on the deck, smashing the Tornado so that the bow was submerged in the water and the stern was lifted high, almost breaking in two.
The third one hit the stern of the ship hard, piercing through the Tornado and completely igniting it.
And the last fourth one... Mung Gray River could no longer see the fourth one, because before that, he had activated the teleportation magic and abandoned the ship and fled.
He had to report the fact that the Silent Night Pirates had gained a new legendary wizard, so that the sacrifice would be worthwhile.
Before leaving, he looked up at the sky deeply, wanting to remember Amberxiu firmly in his mind, but unfortunately, all he saw was a ball of golden light and nothing else was clear.
Amber did not know who Monger Gray River was, he just focused on controlling his four meteors to ensure that all hit. The Golden Throne saved Amber the time of casting spells and strengthened the spell effect, but it did not help much in terms of hit rate.
The power of the School of Prophecy played an important role at this moment. The meteors that were supposed to fly everywhere were firmly locked on the Tornado, and four meteors completely destroyed the flagship.
The meteor that smashed through the hull also exploded on the seabed, creating huge waves and overturning the remaining warships of the Angry Tide Kingdom.
After dealing with these enemies, Amber returned to the sea surface.
At this time, Phil had ordered the ghost ship to resurface and take Amber back to the deck.
This stubborn berserker seems to be not good at speaking, and he keeps saying the two words "awesome" and "too awesome" over and over again.
However, it can be seen that Phil really admires Amber from the bottom of his heart. In this world, the strong will always be respected.
Amberxiu was not the type to do good deeds without leaving a name. He told Phil about the plan of the Raging Tide Navy and warned him, "If I hadn't interrupted their spell just now, your ghost ship would have been completely destroyed. You would have perished too. Are you guys always so reckless?"
Phil was surprised and said, "There is such a trick. I have never seen them use these methods before."
"Never seen them? How long has it been since you fought with them?" Amber Xiu asked curiously.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Phil counted on his fingers and said, "As for me, I haven't fought with them for almost ten years. I don't know much about the other people in the group. The leader has been sleeping recently, so I rarely surface."
"No wonder." Amberxiu smiled bitterly. The concept of time between the undead and humans is very different.
Humans are short-lived, and ten years is a very long time for them, enough time for a country to completely change its army. New equipment, new tactics, new magic... Ten years is enough time to change all these things.
According to incomplete statistics from the magic world, it takes human mages five to thirty years to develop new magic, and most human mages will give up if it takes more than this. For the elves, it takes fifty to three hundred years, and for the undead, it takes even longer, from a hundred to a thousand years.
This is the statistic based on the legendary spell. It may not be accurate, but it is definitely close.
This is the difference. Although the undead do not need to eat, drink, defecate, urinate or sleep and can conduct research all day long, in fact, most of the undead lack inspiration because they have lost these worldly desires. In addition, most of the high-level undead live their own lives and do not conduct regular academic discussions on a large scale like humans, so it is difficult to make any progress in magic research.
Feeling is a very important thing. The undead have lost their senses and are only left with obsession. They receive very little stimulation in normal times, which naturally greatly reduces the chances of having a flash of inspiration. Innovation often requires not knowledge but a little inspiration.
It is precisely because of this advantage that the world is dominated by humans, and other races cannot compare with the human race as a whole.
The undead lay dormant for several years, and when they reappeared, the enemies had changed, making it difficult to deal with them.
But things in this world are difficult to have. You cannot make immortals as anxious as humans. For example, if the carriage is not due for three hours, you will not go to the post station and wait for it now.
"You just said that your captain has been sleeping. What's going on?" Amber asked.
"It's just sleeping. Is it strange for the undead to sleep? Usually we don't have much to do, either robbing or sleeping. It's just that the leader suddenly woke up recently, which is a little strange. But, isn't this because of your distinguished guest visiting?"
Although Phil is also a legendary undead, he is definitely not a member of the Mourning Poets Society, otherwise he would know that the recent big event was something the president said in the group.
It was probably because of the appearance of this mysterious president that the sleeping mute senior was awakened.
Amber Xiu stroked his chin and pondered: "Is there an online reminder function in the group? Why can't I find it? Does the Mourning Poetry Society also need to recharge to open permissions?"
The president suddenly showed up last time, ostensibly to warn the foul-mouthed vampire Hecky Stone, but others didn't think so. Amber remembered that both [Non-Vegetarianism] and [Mute] said that a big event had happened, and it was a big event that happened a thousand years later.
Did anything major happen on the continent a thousand years ago?
At that time, Amber Xiu had not traveled through time yet, and he couldn't remember it for a while. He probably had to go back and look up the information.
Phil didn't know what Amber was thinking, so he said to him, "Dear guest, there was a little accident, but it has been resolved now. Let's continue our journey. However, I'm afraid those humans will come to cause trouble again. I plan to dive into the seabed and sail. What do you think?"
Diving into the seabed, the ghost ship is really convenient.
Amber was about to agree, but suddenly he remembered a problem. His mechanical body didn't seem to have a waterproof function! (End of this chapter)
