The Warrior of Love
Page 653
At this moment, a huge explosion was heard, and the sound waves swept over Chiron, attracting the attention of the great sage.
On the deck of a warship, soldiers were blown into the air by an unknown force, while a hero holding a cross spear was striding forward, sweeping away the enemies in front of him one by one.
This is very abnormal, because the warriors of Atlantis have the ability values of servants. Even if their fighting skills and weapons are not as good as those of the ancient heroes, they will not present a one-sided crushing situation.
Just like Drake and Blackbeard, they mainly relied on long-range diversionary warfare and did not dare to engage in boarding battles at all, because their crews (summoned pirates) could never be the opponents of these enhanced warriors.
However, this Lancer could fight ten at a time. Any Atlantis warrior would be quickly defeated by him in a one-on-one fight. His agile body and flexible tactics ensured that he was not surrounded by more than three enemies at any time.
Fighting alone, for a moment it seemed as if there was no opponent!
Chiron frowned and stared at the man: “He’s not dead…”
That man was Hector who should have been knocked down. Chiron’s treasure pierced his heart. He should have returned to Valhalla under the siege of the warriors, but now he is so… full of energy?
“That’s…I see!”
Chiron finally noticed something strange about the Trojan prince, which was the silver pattern spreading across his chest.
The part of his heart that was originally pierced by the treasure, leaving a large hole, was now filled with some kind of silver substance, which then spread to his limbs, continuously generating considerable magic power like a magic circuit, allowing him to burst out with such a powerful force.
“It’s the ancient machine god’s nanomachine… Using it to repair the spirit core is a really creative idea.”
Chiron shook his head slightly: You know, this is not the original function of nanomachines.
“His spirit core has been completely destroyed. The temporary transformation cannot allow the nanomachine and the spirit base to merge perfectly. This is just a last gasp. Kill him quickly!”
“Hector can’t hold out for too long. The opponent is Chiron. Someone must attract his attention, otherwise we will be sniped one by one!”
Chiron and Jason gave instructions at the same time, and another person on the Argo stepped forward.
“Uu——”
Amid the neighing of war horses and the rumbling of wheels, a chariot caught the man in mid-air and suddenly burst into brilliant magical light.
It was like a green comet streaking across the battlefield, wantonly ravaging the atmosphere and causing a loud noise like a thunderbolt in a clear sky.
Instantly passing through all defense lines, the green comet crashed directly into a battleship with unstoppable momentum.
Boom!
A big hole was knocked open in the sturdy warship, and the comet pierced through the hull and rushed out from one side.
“Is this reckless fighting style Achilles?”
“Long time no see, teacher!”
Driving the Undead Chariot, the great hero Achilles swooped down towards Chiron, increasing the efficiency of his magic power release to the limit, which was equivalent to an A-rank anti-military weapon.
“No, it should be our first meeting… so please take care of me!”
As soon as the words fell, the chariot hit the deck like a meteorite, instantly releasing powerful kinetic energy that was enough to crush everything in its path, all of which was converted into destructive force, breaking the entire battleship in two!
But Chiron was not injured. He dodged the chariot’s direct attack in time, and the aftermath could not hurt him.
In fact, even many Atlantean warriors survived, and although their warships were destroyed, at least half of them still maintained their combat effectiveness.
Achilles, noticing this, couldn’t help but curl his lips, looking very unhappy.
There’s no way around it. The average level of these enemies is too high. If it were on an ordinary battlefield, the “Undead Chariot of Raging Wind and Waves” would be enough to be a matchless lawnmower, but its performance here would be greatly reduced.
It’s not just him, Hector is the same. Even though he is fearless and keeps knocking many enemies away, he mostly relies on tactical skills and rarely kills them with one blow – the vitality of Atlantis warriors is also very strong.
In fact, the number of enemies he killed was probably not as many as Achilles’s collision…
“There’s nothing I can do. After all, the types of Noble Phantasms are different.” Hector comforted himself as he jumped from the deck and onto a boat close to Achilles, ready to fight alongside his former enemy.
“You really don’t know how to respect the elderly and love the young.”
Chiron stood on the slowly sinking half of the ship and drew his bow, aiming at Achilles.
“A Noble Phantasm that can fly… Is the terrain unfavorable to me?”
Although he has been strengthened by nanomachines, there is probably no qualitative difference between him and Achilles. After all, with the “local bonus”, Achilles can also fight in the strongest state.
Considering the advantages and disadvantages of the Noble Phantasm, Chiron would be at a disadvantage.
But this does not mean that the pan-human history side will win.
“call!”
Suddenly, a huge bulge like a small hill appeared on the sea surface, followed by tens of thousands of tons of sea water flowing down, and a monster with bared fangs and claws, like a giant octopus, emerged.
It is similar to the sea monster that attacked the Argo before, but it is much larger in size.
This is not over yet. Several more melodious and heavy roars came from the deep sea, one, two, three…
Five large sea monsters surfaced, with dozens of tentacles stirring up the sea, launching a strangling attack on the pirate ship and the servants of Pan-Human History.
“This is?!”
The Argo was also entangled by a sea monster. In the chaos, Jason discovered that there were dark red veins on the sea monster’s skin that were obviously different from the natural texture.
“Have these sea monsters been transformed? This is trouble!”
“Ninpo!”
As the ship continued to shake, Chiyome Mochizuki jumped to a high place with her slender body, formed seals with her hands, and shouted at the sea monster in a tender voice.
“【Spiritual Origin of Ibuki Daimyojin】!”
Strange reptilian patterns instantly covered her body, and ominous magical power emanated from her body. As Chiyome moved, the shadow of a huge snake appeared behind her, and then turned into a black light and shot towards the sea monster.
The hard skin can withstand the sword’s blow, but it cannot stop the virtual soul attack. The black light instantly penetrated into the sea monster’s body, making the body of this giant suddenly hard.
call!call!call!
“Ouch!”
Bright curse patterns like burning flames appeared on the sea monster’s body. After a brief stiffness, the hideous monster finally couldn’t bear the pain that struck its soul and began to struggle frantically.
However, a look of pain also appeared on Chiyome’s face, as if this treasure required a certain price to be activated.
“Now!”
Jason took the opportunity to steer the Argo out of the control of the sea monster, then cut in from the edge of the battlefield and advanced with all his strength to the rear of the Atlantis fleet.
On the other side, Achilles and Hector started an endless battle with Chiron, Atlantean soldiers and sea monsters.
In terms of strength, the two heroes could not defeat so many enemies, but Achilles had the advantage of mobility, and for a while it was difficult to tell the difference.
“Okay, we have eliminated two obstacles for now, and there is only one final hurdle left.”
Jason concentrated his attention and observed any ripples on the sea, but strangely, he did not find anything unusual until he approached the whirlpool.
“Be careful not to get sucked into the whirlpool! This place seems to have some kind of magic, pulling us in like a swamp!”
Medea and Circe quickly strengthened the Argo’s status to fight against the strange situation that permeated the area, but even with their skills, they could only cause temporary interference but could not decipher the spell here.
“That’s the Fantasy Tree. It’s almost in the right place!”
Ahead was a huge whirlpool of unknown size, giving people the feeling that its capacity was more than enough to swallow a city.
And in the center of the whirlpool, there is an unknown place leading to, as if connected to a bottomless abyss in the void.
The huge tree that grew out of the abyss and whose roots are unknown is the target of everyone’s trip – the Fantasy Tree.
“Strange, where is Poseidon?”
The calmer the time, the more nervous Jason became, but the war situation changed rapidly and he did not have much time to hesitate.
“Keep coming closer!”
Not long after he issued this order, the sky suddenly became dark. Many thick clouds appeared inexplicably, gathering together and quickly blocking out all the sunlight, making the sky and the sea obscure.
However, this change actually made Jason relax a lot.
“finally come!”
call–
The speed of the seawater in the whirlpool continued to increase, and Jason barely maintained the angle of the bow, otherwise the Argo would be drifting with the waves and swallowed by the whirlpool. He tried his best just to deal with the attraction of the seawater and could not take care of other things.
But misfortunes never come alone. At this critical juncture, a vague and huge figure began to emerge in the deep sea. Even though there were billions of tons of sea water between them, it still gave everyone a great sense of oppression.
It’s the Machine God—this thought flashed through everyone’s mind at the same time.
“The battle begins!”
Jason shouted and stood at the bow steering wheel. A faint golden glow emanated from his body, which immediately covered the entire Argo. The blond young man almost became one with his warship.
At this moment, he conceptually integrated the Argonaut with many heroes and increased the defense to the extreme.
Facts proved that his judgment was correct, because in the next moment, a blue beam of light rose from the deep sea, evaporating billions of sea water and brushing past the left side of the Argo!
Chapter 1090: Breakthrough!
“Hold on!!”
The huge impact force was accompanied by a bomb-like hot wind. Even the Argo, which had been repeatedly reinforced, could not withstand it. The hull tilted greatly and almost capsized.
If the crew members were not ancient heroes but a group of ordinary people, they would probably have all been thrown out, right?
After the beam of light passed the Argo, its power remained undiminished. It rushed directly into the cloud layer, piercing through the thick thunderclouds, leaving a huge hole. The sunlight shone through the hole again…
“How exaggerated!”
Jason took a deep breath, suppressed the nausea that was rising in his heart, and tried his best to control the Argo so that it rose and fell in the rolling waves.
The Argo is Jason’s Noble Phantasm. Its permanent ability is that the more heroes it carries, the higher the speed and strength of the hull. When he releases the True Name of the Noble Phantasm, it will have the special effect of “The Captain and the Ship Are Together”.
In short, it is an integration with the Noble Phantasm, which can further enhance the performance of the Argo. Jason does not need to perform any operations, he can change the course of the ship with just his mind.
But this will also have certain negative effects, that is, part of the attacks received by the Argo will be fed back to him.
This time, the Argo was grazed by Poseidon’s laser cannon. Although it was not hit directly, but only the aftermath, it still caused considerable damage to the Argo.
It may not be visible from the outside, but the hidden injury is very serious. Jason is also in poor condition now, but he just doesn’t want to show it.
“Something is floating!”
Cassandra stared at the surging sea and shouted to alert Jason and the others.
“Float?” The blond young man was stunned.
He didn’t expect that Poseidon would come to the surface of the sea to fight with them… You know, if they were in the sea, Poseidon would definitely have the advantage of terrain. Even for servants with extraordinary skills, it would be extremely difficult to defeat Poseidon under the water.
In fact, if Circe had not inherited the divinity of the Oceanids and could provide the servants with the blessing of survival underwater… then Jason and others would not even be qualified to fight Poseidon.
Why did Poseidon float up when he could be invincible if he just hid underwater and launched his attack? It was so unwise… Jason could only attribute it to the god’s excessive pride.
Soon he no longer had time to worry about this, because as Poseidon rose, a huge monster like an island appeared on the sea. The waves caused by its appearance alone were more than ten meters high, causing the Argo to sway continuously.
“It’s so big… I expected it, but it’s still so big!”
Everyone gasped, shocked by the solemn, sacred and huge body.
The Mechas that had been seen before were all exiled remains, such as the goddess Hecate who became the cornerstone of an island. So although everyone knew how huge the Mechas were, they had never seen them in their entirety, and lacked a clear understanding.
Now that they are so close to Poseidon, they understand what they are fighting against.
It was a “space battleship” in the literal sense. Its overall shape was similar to that of a whale, but its azure steel body made it look far more terrifying than the largest mammals. Something like a protective shield flickered around it, emitting lightning-like piercing rays from time to time.
“Don’t just stand there, let’s get started!”
Medea was the first to raise the staff, gathering all the magic power in her body to create a fireball that was bigger than her body.
Circe, Hippolyta, Chiyome Mochizuki and others also launched attacks at the same time.
But whether it was the physical flying knives or the witches’ spells, they had no effect when they hit Poseidon, and disappeared after making a funny “puff” sound.
No, strictly speaking, they didn’t even touch Poseidon. They were neutralized as soon as they hit the outer protective shield.
“If you don’t break through, you won’t be able to hurt Poseidon…let alone contain him.”
Jason clenched his fists, and as his mind raced, he suddenly thought of a method that made him tremble all over.
“Perhaps… this is the only way!”
hum!
A dazzling light shone at the top of Poseidon’s “head”, like the scorching sun rising from the horizon, emitting endless heat.
Soon it will unleash an attack on the Argo powerful enough to destroy a city, something everyone can predict but cannot stop.
“Jason!” Medea subconsciously shouted the name of the man she hated most.
