Chapter 1938 Turtle Shell Ship

The physiological structure of the harpies, which is half-human and half-bird, dooms this creature's flying skills to not be as good as real birds. Compared with the "iron maiden" who is rushing forward, its flying speed is an order of magnitude worse, and it can only be seen. Seeing the spire of the crystal steel tower hit head-on, it was smashed to pieces before it could dodge, and feathers and flesh and blood fragments flew all over the sky.

The spire of the crystal spire was stained scarlet with blood, and was immediately wiped away by the high air flow. Joan's vision returned to clear, and he locked on to the densely populated Harpy area in front of him, driving the "Iron Maiden" to charge forward.

The dense sound of bone and flesh breaking like drums echoed in the ears, and the screams were almost inaudible far behind.

After this round of collision, at least ten harpies were crushed by the crystal steel tower.

Although the temptress near the flight axis of the "Iron Maiden" was not directly hit, she was also engulfed by the violent turbulence brought about by the "Iron Maiden", and her body lost her balance. Audrey, Holden and Hailar who came later took the opportunity kill.

The flying "Iron Maiden" rampaged through the air, and one after another the sexy carcass of the harpies was crushed by this brutal and cruel steel tower, turning them into unsightly broken limbs.

On the deck, Captain Odysseus and the sailors looked up at the battle area in the air, and saw blood clouds exploding where the crystal steel tower passed, and the scarlet blood rain dripped down. Zhang, his eyes glazed over, he was so shocked that his mind went blank.

If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they wouldn't have believed it anyway. There is such a sharp air combat method in the world-the young mage chased and killed hundreds of harpies by himself, scaring the group who were still arrogant just now. The temptress fled.

The battle lasted for half an hour, and there were more than forty harpies killed and injured by Joan.

Both parties who were focused on fighting did not notice that the weather over the sea had changed quietly, billowing dark clouds covered the sky, and lightning and thunder rumbled deep in the clouds, indicating that a storm was coming.

The harpies remaining in the air were almost terrified by the "Iron Maiden" controlled by Joan. At this time, they sensed that the thunderstorm was approaching, and the remaining fighting spirit was blown away by the strong wind, and they hurriedly flapped their wings and flew away. Take shelter from thunderstorms on the islands on both sides of the strait.

Joan didn't chase down the fleeing enemies, but landed on the deck with his companions and turned back into a human form.

Captain Odysseus also realized that the opportunity was rare, and immediately urged the sailors under his command to return to their respective posts. Taking advantage of the harpies avoiding the thunderstorm and coming to harass him, he drove the "Coral" across the strait and struggled in the storm. sailing.

The thunderstorm lasted all night, and the expedition ship drifted with the waves all night until the next morning, when the sea cleared up, the people on the ship boarded the deck again to observe the surrounding sea area, and inadvertently found faint shadows emerging from the misty sea horizon , after approaching, it was discovered that it was an island that was not marked on the nautical chart.

Observing through a telescope, the area of ​​the small island is not large, no more than half a square mile by visual inspection, but the island is full of lush vegetation and green shade, and it appears to be full of vitality. Judging from the lush vegetation on the island, it is not difficult to infer that there are abundant fresh water resources in the area.

The "Coral" has not stopped at the port to replenish fresh water since it left Elephant Man Island. After more than half a month of voyage, the fresh water stored on board has run out, and the boilers that have been working intensively for several days also need to be shut down for maintenance.

Based on the above-mentioned practical needs, Captain Odysseus proposed to anchor near the small island ahead, and the sailors stayed on board to overhaul the power equipment, while the rest followed him to the island for investigation and collected fresh water along the way.

Hailar and Zion have been on the boat for more than half a month, and they have long wanted to get off the boat to relax, and of course they will not object to the captain's proposal.

Joan also has the same plan. Besides, he has a special curiosity about the small island ahead.

Just when he was observing the island with the binoculars, he suddenly received a sensory message from "Tears of God", suggesting that there was a "mythical creature" nearby, but he did not clearly tell him where the mythical creature was. position” without explanation.

Joan has experienced a similar situation before, and the reasons are nothing more than two possibilities: either the mythical creature is too far away, and "Tears of God" cannot give detailed information; or the mythical creature is extremely alert and senses that someone is To spy on oneself, to conceal oneself in some way, so as to avoid detection.

No matter what the specific situation is, it made Joan curious, and vaguely felt that the unknown mythical creature was probably related to the small island in front of him, so it was even more necessary to go to the island to investigate.

Of course, before going to the island to explore, you must first take precautions. Joan specially took out the "Dragon Scale Talisman" to ensure that the "Return Mantra" attached to the Talisman was ready to be activated at any time, and the teleportation point was set to the deck of the "Coral" expedition ship.

After going to the island, if the situation is not good, Qiao An will activate the "Return Mantra" immediately, and flee back to the boat with his companions, pull the anchor as soon as possible, and drive the boat away.

For safety reasons, the "Coral" expedition ship anchored in a sheltered area in waters about half a nautical mile away from the island.

Captain Odysseus brought sailors Gulliver and Robinson, and the fat cook Sinbad who went to the island to find fresh ingredients, plus Audrey, Holden, Hyrule and Parrot Dolly, six people The birds rode together in a barge and paddled close to the island.

Joann didn't take a boat, and flew over directly in the form of a beeman. Looking down at the island from a high position, he found that the overall shape of the island resembled a spoon submerged in the water. handle, or as a natural trestle extending into the sea.

The waves on both sides of the trestle bridge are calm, the sea water has excellent visibility and no hidden reefs. It is a good natural anchorage. If you confirm that there is no danger on the island, you can moor the expedition ship.

Joan was planning to fly to the bushes in the middle of the island to investigate, when he accidentally caught a glimpse of a mass of objects floating on the water on the east side of the trestle bridge. Out of curiosity, he took a second look and couldn't help being secretly surprised.

Floating on the water is a hollowed-out turtle shell, carefully transformed into a small boat that appears to be only the size of a washbasin.

Although the turtle-shell ship is small, it has all kinds of navigating facilities: a flat deck, and a mast about ten feet high erected in the center of the deck. The white sail on the mast is only about the size of a tablecloth.

The more Qiao An watched, the more curious he became, so he took an "invisibility spell" on himself, lowered his flying altitude, and observed the toy-like turtle-shell ship.
