   Chapter 178 Pirate armor (33)

Originally, Ian thought that the so-called mortal danger should be that the ironclad shark’s lair was trapped in a maze, and the environment changed drastically—not to mention, it’s just that the area around the lair is radiating heat and is dormant. Sharks that try to grow and transform will definitely be severely injured and die. Not surprisingly.

In the final analysis, the entire South China Sea labyrinth ecosphere is very likely to be attached to the abnormal mutation and high-energy catalysis caused by the nuclear radiation leaked from the orbital accelerator...Since this is the case, it is not very strange to release heat from time to time, and it may be a big deal with the recent ruins. In the case of mutation, it is very reasonable.

   It turned out that the reason why the ironclad shark was in danger was very simple.

  —Someone is fishing in this place!

   Patted Shasha on the head, Ian motioned him to look at the shadowy wooden roots in front of him, and the armored shark immediately understood that he almost broke into the net just now.

  Yes, even the live fishing nets of the live tree boat are absolutely impossible to stop an ironclad shark. When it rams with all its strength, even the ironclad ship will be knocked out of a hole.

   However, it is obvious that there must be many strong people in this fleet who are good at fishing and hunting sharks. Perhaps one person cannot deal with it alone, but it is almost inevitable for several people to surround it.

  At that time, it was really rejected by others, and it could only become a delicacy in other people's mouths.

  Thinking of this, Ironclad Shark was startled immediately, and became even more cute.

  Ian couldn't imagine that this shark had such a complicated mind. Compared with it, his thoughts were very simple.

   "Let me see what is going on with your fleet."

  Ian's vision of vision, after several years of training, has not been able to maintain a certain range for a long time, but the scope of prediction has expanded from more than 200 meters in diameter to more than 500 meters.

   But this is not the limit—relying on the silver chip to shield other perceptions, and simply focusing on all the targets on a line, then his predictive range can directly extend to the kilometer level.

  At this moment, Ian is like this. He slowly looks around all the sea areas in front and above, just like a radar scan. He doesn't observe carefully, but just sweeps over, and the color and outline of the fog in the field of vision are immediately skipped.

  So, ten seconds later, he roughly swept across the core personnel on several core ships of this fleet.

  The result surprised the boy.

   "One peak of the first energy level, two first energy levels, and alchemy artillery?"

  Ian can’t say he was surprised, he could only say he was very surprised—how could there be at least three sublimators in the caravan, and there are such things as alchemy cannons? If other ships that were not scanned were counted, the number of sublimators might even increase!

Although it sounds like, in the final analysis, there are only a handful of sublimators and alchemy cannons... But in the world of Terra, the status of sublimators is actually very noble, especially the sublimators at the peak of the first energy level. Regarded as a reserve for nobles.

Yes, the second energy level is the bottom line of nobles in the Terra world, but it is also the upper limit of most nobles—even if there is a strong family inheritance, but if the talent is not good and the resources are insufficient, most nobles who sublimate will die in this life. It is the second energy level, and there are even fewer people who can reach the peak like the Viscount Grant.

Take Ian himself as an example. On the surface, he is only a wave-singer of the first energy level. His energy level is low, and his inheritance is also low. In theory, he is at the bottom of the contempt chain of sublimators... But even such a double-low inheritance , is also enough to serve as the captain of a large ship. Even if it is an ocean explorer who can cross the windless belt, the first-level wave-singer is an extremely important member, let alone the second-level master of the wave, Enough to serve as the chief officer of an exploration mission in the Imperial Royal Ocean Exploration Corps.

  As for tax exemption, certificate affiliation, city entry fee reduction and other small benefits, not to mention...

Generally speaking, even if it is a transnational caravan of a large chamber of commerce, it is enough to have a sublimator of the first level to top the sky, and expel the monsters along the coast. , and the second energy level is insane to lead a caravan to run a business, unless it is an official national trade caravan... But in that case, the second energy level can't hold up.

   And, the most important thing is one more thing...

   That is, the entire fleet has almost 'killable' hostility towards itself!

   "It's weird! Why do they have such hostility towards me? I'm just a white man who hasn't met them yet!"

  Ian’s heart rang an alarm bell, and he smelled danger: "Recently...the only one who has made enemies with me is that Patrick from the imperial capital!"

   "Could it be that the pirates on this ship have something to do with him? It's not impossible..."

  He knew it in his heart, and he had already made some guesses, but the young man made up his mind to continue to find out: "Shasha, you stay here and don't move around. I'll check the situation and come back."

   Having said that, Ian abandoned all sublimation organs, and just relied on the swimming skills he had cultivated in the past, slowly swam towards the surrounding sea area, and used the prophetic vision to detect the whole fleet.

  The silver-cyan halo converged into a line, and he stared at the situation in the distance like a radar scan.

  The result surprised Ian.

  In this fleet, there is a total of one sublimator at the peak of the first energy level, two high-level first energy level, two intermediate-level, a total of five sublimators.

To be honest, the general nobles of the empire do not have this lineup of subordinates. Among the five first-level totems, there is one peak, which is just right to form a small knight order. As long as there are several second-level peak totems in Nanling The main **** area, going to the general frontier, is enough to open up several villages and towns.

Viscount Grant is different. His father, Old Grant, brought a small order of knights to Nanling back then. There is no lack of inheritance. Therefore, there are only seven sublimators in the guard, including the old knight Yam. And there are also four sublimators in the three fleets, and their strength is far superior to that of ordinary viscounts.

  In the final analysis, if the old Viscount Grant survives and advances to the third energy level, he is a template for a new frontier marquis.

  In addition, there are more than 20 alchemy cannons on the fleet... This is the real horror.

  More than twenty doors! The entire Harrison Port Guard has only more than 20 gates, and the entire city, including the mobile artillery accompanying the army, has only more than 80 gates!

  What is the origin of this fleet, that it has a quarter of the firepower of a frontier fortress town?

  Of course, this cannot be compared to this. The shells of these pirate fleets are mainly artillery, and there are some alchemy artillery on the flagship, which is not at the same level as the alchemy artillery position built by Viscount Grant.

   After all, the pirate fleet doesn't have to worry about being besieged by several second-level peak monsters around them, and naturally they don't need such high firepower.

   But even so, this is quite outrageous.

More than that.

   Soon, Ian discovered another piece of information that made him feel 'horrifying'.

  —The back cabin of the flagship of the ‘Captain’ at the peak of the first energy level… There is actually purple mist!

  Although it is only lavender, it is also the breath of the second energy level!

   "What the hell?!"

  Ian's eyes frightened, and he almost wanted to turn his head and get wet.

   Fortunately, he soon realized that it was not a sublimator of the second energy level, but a rather huge dead thing, at least three or four meters high.

  After thinking about it, Ian decided to take a closer look.

   Soon, with the cooperation of the predictive vision and the silver chip, silver fonts appeared in front of my eyes.
