Chapter 3015 Sea Monster
boom!
Accompanied by a loud noise, the battleship "Eagle" seemed to be kicked heavily by an invisible giant, suddenly jumped out of the sea, and then smashed hard into the sea.
A huge gap was torn open at the bottom of the battleship, and the turbulent sea water poured into the cabin. The damage was so severe that any damage control measures were useless.
Bannister Winthrop helped General William Howe, who was bleeding badly, to evacuate the sinking flagship and transfer to a nearby frigate.
During this period, the entire fleet lost command and fell into chaos.
The Royal Battleship "Eagle", which was disemboweled, became the second battleship of Fizen to be sunk since the outbreak of the Battle of Pico Bay after the HMS Majestic.
Within half an hour, the towering mast of the "Eagle" was completely submerged by sea water, and countless black spots could be seen faintly in the churning waves, all of which were Feizhen sailors who were forced to abandon the ship and jump into the sea.
"Whoa~ look, Master Fei's flagship is sinking really fast, guys, well done!"
Lieutenant Colonel Hugo checked the results through the periscope, whistled with satisfaction, turned on the airborne radio, and shared the joy of victory with his teammates.
"Lieutenant Colonel, the magic sonar has detected abnormal fluctuations... It seems that survivors are emerging from the wreckage of the 'Eagle'. I'm not sure what kind of creature it is, but it's definitely not human!"
Second Lieutenant Pavlov's warning came from the radio station, with a hint of tension in his voice.
Lieutenant Colonel Hugo hastily turned on the searchlight, and a beam of magical strong light penetrated the dark sea water, shining on the abnormal area pointed out by Second Lieutenant Pavlov. Sure enough, he saw a strange shadow emerging from the cracks in the hull. Resembling a gigantic octopus, with a body no less than 50 feet in diameter and length by visual inspection.
"Guys watch out! I bet a cask of rum we're in big trouble!"
Before Lieutenant Colonel Hugo finished speaking, the strange and huge shadow escaped from the sunken ship, and its dancing octopus-like limbs quickly floated to the surface of the sea.
Not long after, a huge vortex suddenly appeared on the surface of the sea. Terrifying sound waves came from the water, pierced through the waves, and echoed above the sea surface. It was like a howling wolf magnified a thousand times, vaguely mixed with the angry scream of a woman, resounding through the surrounding area. For ten miles, it overshadowed the roar of naval guns and bombs, making both sides in the war feel terrified.
Joan and Inanna, who were watching the battle on Wild Boar Island, were also attracted by the weird roar. The father and daughter looked at each other, and quickly turned the viewing angle of the remote viewing mirror to the sea area where the roar came from.
I saw a giant half-human, half-animal monster slowly rising from the vortex. Its naked upper body was like a glamorous giantess, with six heads like wolves on its waist, and its lower body split into countless thick and flexible tentacles like pythons.
"Huh? Is that... a sea monster?" Inanna's eyes widened in surprise, "It looks like it's not easy to mess with!"
"It is indeed a sea monster. To be precise, it is one of the ten legendary mythical sacred beasts created by the 'Mother of Monsters' Ekadna, named Scylla."
The scene in front of him reminded Joan of what he saw two years ago in the Chapel of Our Lady of Castle Donning, when he was deeply impressed by the five sacred beasts including Dinin, among them Scylla.
However, the Scylla that appeared in the Chapel of Our Lady only had 6th-level mythical power, while the one that surfaced at the moment possessed 7th-level mythical power, which was obviously stronger.
"Father, the Scylla you mentioned, is she a wild sea monster disturbed by the sound of gunfire, or is she a helper summoned by a Fizhen navigator?"
Inanna asked curiously.
"There are no 'wild' holy beasts. They are all transformed from the heirs or believers of the evil god Ekadna."
Qiao An caressed the slightly swollen deformed eyeball on the back of her neck, and looked a little colder at the mirror.
"If I'm not mistaken, the host of the Scylla at sea is probably Cersei Helen, the chief navigator under Earl Winthrop. Just now, she tried to cast a spell to summon the wind and rain, but was injured by my killing wave, and took shelter. His warship was sunk by a magic torpedo, and transformed into a holy beast in extreme anger and despair."
The young legendary mage's left eye glowed with magic power, and he cast "advanced inner vision" through the mirror to check the details of the holy beast Scylla.

...
While Joan was introducing Scylla's origins to his adoptive daughter, the half-human, half-beast sea monster had completely surfaced, roaring to the sky, and the rolling sound echoed between the sea and the sky. Being shaken unconscious, he let go of the driftwood in his hand, and was immediately engulfed by the raging waves.
"Cersei Helen, calm down!"
Bannister Winthrop, who had just rescued General William Howe and transferred to the frigate "Endeavour", heard Scylla's roar, hurried to the top of the mast tower, waved at Scylla, and shouted loudly.
"Our enemies are over there, go and destroy them!"
Scylla retained part of the memory of her host, Cersei Helen, and looked down at Bannister, seeming to recognize him. Following the direction of Bannister's finger, she looked at the flagship "Regent" of the Far East Navy, with intertwined eyes. Madness and hatred, swinging many tentacles on the lower body, swimming close to the sea to the "Regent", the speed is not inferior to a steam speedboat!
"Damn! The sea monster is heading towards our flagship, stop her!"
Lieutenant Colonel Hugo hurriedly turned the booster engines of the "Steel Cavalry" to maximum power, and led the fourth submarine squadron to outflank Scylla.
