Chapter 459: Thunder Sea
After the Githyanki were severely damaged by Amber, the remaining people rode the Isi Ray and fled.
According to rough estimates, there are about two to three thousand survivors.
Amber has always been curious about how the Githyanki cooperate with the Ishii Ray. It cannot be said that the relationship between Tiamat and Demogorgon is bad, but it can be said that they fight each other when they meet.
They can cooperate in this, and sometimes Amberxiu has to admire the broad-mindedness of the devils and demons.
Ariel controlled the Gray River and flew forward along the route the Githyanki had taken to escape. The Gray River was much smaller than the Black Tide, so it did not come with combat drones and its overall functions were relatively simple.
But being single also has its advantages. After technological improvements, Gray River can achieve short-term supersonic flight.
When the powerful push came, only three legends were left conscious on the ship. The sailors brought by Ariel all fainted and only recovered slowly after the Gray River slowed down to normal speed.
Ariel said to Amber in shock: "What a terrifying speed! Who can catch up with it on the battlefield?!"
As a female general who had experienced many battles, Ariel understood the horror of the flying battleship after seeing this weapon, but today it seems that she still had too little experience.
Amber said proudly: "In terms of flight speed, only my product can reach this level. It is a unique monopoly technology in the world. But don't worry, Princess, supersonic aircraft will sooner or later become one of the products of the Kingdom of Raging Tide. As for this spaceship, you people of the Kingdom of Raging Tide can also own it."
Ariel knew that Amber was not speaking to her, but to the sailors she brought with her.
Although these old sailors didn't say anything strange, some of the gray-haired old men were still a little resistant to this spaceship.
Perhaps in their view, a ship is something that sails on the sea against the wind and waves, and something flying in the sky is not a "ship" at all.
The subtle resistance makes it difficult for them to concentrate on their work.
Amber Xiu had seen many evil people, so how could he not see it? The older they were, the more skilled they were, and the more they believed in their skills, the more psychologically they would rely on their hidden talents.
When these elderly people see new technologies that are superior to their own "abilities", more than half of them will resist because the things they rely on will be smashed to pieces, and they can do nothing about it.
Some people turn their helplessness into motivation to learn new technologies, fearing that they will be eliminated. Some people turn this feeling into passive resistance and refuse to accept new things.
Knowing that this is wrong, but being unable to control one's emotions, this is the "human nature" common to all intelligent life.
Amberxiu could see that at least one third of these sailors were stubborn old guys like this, and he didn't have time to talk to them, so he could only choose the simplest option - to show his power.
After witnessing the supersonic flight of the spacecraft, smashing their stubborn ideas into pieces, and then telling them that this is something that the Kingdom of Rage can master, normal people should be able to come around.
If this doesn't work, Amber wouldn't mind throwing them off the boat to avoid delaying his own business.
Ariel also roughly guessed Amber's thoughts, otherwise he would not test supersonic flight knowing the dangers. Ariel originally wanted to use other means to solve the emotional problems of these sailors, but she did not expect that the lich's method was more brutal, but also more effective.
Beating these disobedient subordinates was nothing. Ariel was more concerned about the truthfulness of Amber's words.
Can this supersonic aircraft really be equipped in the Kingdom of Angry Tide? If the Kingdom of Angry Tide has enough aircraft, then returning to the mainland will not be a problem. The Ryan people are nothing, they can only be beaten.
Anyone who knows a little about military affairs knows very well what this terrifying air superiority represents. The most basic one is intelligence advantage.
If a large number of warships are sent to fly in the sky, the movements on the ground will be clear. How can we fight a war if our strength is known before we even start?
When attacking a city, direct airdrop attacks, even if it's just throwing stones, will not be able to stop any defensive magic array after a while, not to mention the morale of the people in the city. Being beaten every day and unable to fight back will result in extreme depression and collapse from within.
The decision by the Kingdom of Wrath of Tide to cooperate with this lich was absolutely correct. At least in terms of military strength, the Kingdom of Wrath of Tide no longer needs to worry about falling behind the times.
Thinking about national affairs in her mind, Ariel called the sailors over and reminded them to start working.
This time, no matter what they were thinking, the sailors did not dare to show it. They took the nautical charts and began to compare them, commanding the Gray River to patrol the nearest island.
However, although there are some minor flaws, this group of people is indeed very professional.
Even Amber Xiu couldn't sense any difference in the sea, but they could accurately tell where they were in the sea, and the direction they pointed to was also very accurate.
In a short while, the Gray River had passed over seven or eight islands.
But the island was found, but the Githyanki were still nowhere to be found.
After searching the sea for a long time and searching all the habitable islands in the area, they still found nothing, not even any traces of the Githyanki having been there.
Amber was surprised. Did all the Githyanki die? Or did they return to the Astral Plane? Unfortunately, he couldn't ask Tiamat about this. Not to mention whether the dragon goddess was willing to see him, if he gave Tiamat this evidence, he would definitely be blackmailed.
But now it seems that saving money is not possible.
Just as Amber was about to return, Ariel suddenly said, "Master Ultraman, I have a guess. This place is not far from the Thunder Sea. These Gisyanki people are likely to have entered that dangerous sea."
The Thunder Sea is the area that the Ryan people entered before?
The last time the Ryans attacked, Ariel used pirates as cannon fodder to force the Ryans into the sea where thunder was eternal. This was where the most powerful sea beasts lived and it was a forbidden area for all living people.
But the Ryan people not only successfully crossed the Thunder Sea, but also brought out a super giant octopus, looking like a brave man who picked up a pet while fighting the devil.
It’s a pity that they were finally dealt with by Amber Xiu.
Now that Ariel mentioned the Thunder Sea, Amberxiu also thought it might be a good idea to go and take a look.
"What's the situation in this Thunder Sea? Last time the Ryan people went there, nothing seemed to happen." Amber asked.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Ariel was also a little embarrassed. She had never thought that the Ryan people were so powerful. A storm could have blown their ship apart, but they entered this thunderous sea in peace and sound, and escaped successfully.
"I can't explain how the Ryans managed to get through, but the Thunder Sea is indeed the largest restricted area in this sea. Storms and thunder are rampant all year round, and countless deep-sea monsters make their nests there. Even our Raging Tide Kingdom doesn't dare to approach. But this harsh sea area has many undiscovered islands. As long as they can overcome these environmental factors, it shouldn't be a problem to feed thousands of people."
Since Ariel said so, Amber would naturally go for a walk.
What's the point of endless thunder? The Gray River will not be affected once it flies above the clouds, so it should be no problem to take a turn.
However, it was not until Amberxiu arrived at this sea area that he understood why it was called a restricted area.
His understanding of the endless thunder was that thunder would fall every few seconds, like an electric snake cutting through the sky. But the real Thunder Sea was completely different. The thunder did not strike every few seconds, but like rain.
From afar, thunder fell like rain, leaving streaks of flames on the surging sea. This time it really set the sea on fire.
This was not thunder at all, but a fence made of thunder that completely covered the area.
This is not enough. The closer you get to this area, the more turbulent the sea becomes. There are whirlpools of all sizes all over the sea, making it impossible for any ship to pass through. Even an all-metal ship like the Kuroshio will be torn to pieces if thrown in.
The outer layer already looks like a doomsday, how horrible must the inside be? "Can anyone really survive in this environment?"
Amberxiu felt that the Githyanki were not made of iron. In such an environment, they would die if they went in.
"But can't the Githyanki ride on the Ishii rays? If they pass through the seabed, they might be able to bypass the thunder and whirlpools on the sea surface. I have never been into the interior of the Thunder Sea, maybe there is an environment suitable for survival. Of course, this is just my suggestion, please make your own judgment, Master Ultraman."
Ariel is only here to act as a guide. Whether or not to enter such a scary place will ultimately be decided by Amber.
Amber said without thinking: "Even if you want to go, you can't take the Gray River."
The essence of Amber's necromancy alchemy is to transform the entire battleship into a metal undead, with each key part controlled by a specially made virtual soul.
These functional souls have little defensive power. If they crash into this thunder, the souls inside the Gray River will be quickly shocked to death or electrocuted, and the ship will be ruined.
And Amber looked at the clouds, and felt that the Gray River might not be able to fly above the clouds. The height of these thunderclouds was abnormal and was definitely not a natural product. It had exceeded the maximum height of the Gray River.
"In that case, let's go back now?" Ariel asked.
Amber shook his head and said, "Of course we can't go back. Since this is our last chance, I have to go in and take a look before I give up. If we can't get through the sea, we can also learn from the Githyanki and get through the seabed."
