Struggle in the Steam Age

"My brother, I feel that the other party is chasing us now." Just as the ship started and drove for five or six minutes, floating beside Lawrence with her eyes closed, Nara suddenly notified Lawrence through her soul connection. "And I smelled a familiar smell from him. If I guess right, that smell should belong to the gods."

"God, you mean the gods?" Lawrence's eyes widened in surprise. If there is the power of the gods in this moving island, then everything makes sense. In the main plane, there may only be the power of the gods. Can make this island have such a magical effect.

"Well, no problem, it's the power of the gods." Nora said, her left ring finger twitched, and then a line of fire quickly stretched out from the sea to her finger. Fortunately, she immediately flicked her finger as if she had cut something, and successfully caused the faint blue flame to fall into the sea as if she had lost her support.

"What's the matter just now?" Lawrence turned his head nervously and stared at the little doll. He could see that Nora should have fought against the island in the water just now, but he didn't understand who just took it. Cheap. However, considering the huge size difference between the two sides, he still worried about Nora in his heart.

"I tried to touch it with my own strength, and got two news, one good and one bad." After Lawrence's concern, Nara turned her head and said mischievously, "The bad news is that although we all belong Divine creature. But that island is much stronger than me. If I fight head-on, I will definitely not win."

"It sounds really bad." Lawrence said with a flat mouth. Although he has always felt that he is the protagonist, the strongest combatant on this ship is indeed the puppet. If she can't win, then even all the people on this ship People can't win together. "But you just said there was good news, what's that?"

"The good news is that although I don’t know what is going on, the test just now proves that the opponent has only the most basic instincts left. Otherwise, my attack with a spirit of spirit just now, the other party will use various methods. Counterattack, not the way it is now. Obviously, it's just a basic reaction that followed the path of my attack and sent back the power in a mess."

"If this is the case, we still have hope." Lawrence breathed a sigh of relief. If the opponent doesn't even have the instinct of a beast, then it will be much easier to deal with, and it will be a piece of meat full of powerful special power. It is not that there is no way to defeat it.

To be honest, when he first learned that the thing was far more powerful than the little doll Nara, he wanted to return directly. It is one thing to seek truth in wealth and danger, and another to die. Although it is important to rescue friends, sending more people in order to rescue friends is obviously not worth it.

"Port side, at seven o'clock, eight kilometers." Ten minutes later, a sharp roar suddenly came from the lookout post. Everyone on the deck and in the cabin immediately turned their attention to the direction of the stern after hearing the words. As a result, everyone who remained on the deck saw a scene that shocked them extremely.

A small hill that seemed to be the size of a boat rose out of the water without warning, and the waves of water even made the Enterprise sway. As the island slowly rises, more and more parts surfaced. Lawrence and the others began to see the appearance of this small island gradually.

This is a deserted island with a diameter of only about three kilometers. Except for a small hill in the center, the island is basically flat. It's just that the surface of the island is basically flat due to the fact that it has just floated to the surface. All are puddles and swamps of all sizes.

In short, this small island looks like countless uninhabited islands scattered in this sea area, basically nothing special. If he hadn't just seen this island rise from underwater, even Lawrence would have ignored the past as he faced other similar islands.

Just a few seconds after the island rose from underwater, Lawrence felt the Enterprise under his feet vibrate slightly, and then the speed dropped. You know, when they discovered that the island was floating just now, Lawrence and the others had already allowed the ship to speed up and flee in the opposite direction of the island. But now, the ship that was still moving at the highest speed just dropped as if caught by something.

"That island, that island is opening its mouth." At this time, the lookout sent another warning. The whole crew heard an ominous smell in the horrified voice of the watchman. Lawrence grabbed the telescope and looked at the island, only to see a big mouth slowly appearing on the edge of the island facing him.

It is a big mouth, to be precise, it is a cave slowly appearing on the edge of the island. A large amount of sea water quickly poured into the cave, and even formed a huge whirlpool in front of the cave. However, because of the abnormal water flow caused by this cave, the speed of the ship's departure from the Enterprise was greatly slowed down.

"This small island should be aimed at us now." After taking a brief look at the location of the cave, Nora immediately judged how the situation is now? "It seems that the basic will that this thing maintains still swallows all the living organisms around, and we are now unlucky enough to be targeted by the other party."

Having said this, Nara suddenly narrowed her eyes and looked at the cave. Then he patted Lawrence's forearm and said. "Look at the cave on the left to see if there is something metal there. I seem to have observed a metal guy bigger than a human being stuck behind a rock a little bit inside the cave entrance on the left."

Lawrence raised the binoculars again and looked in the direction of his finger, and he saw the silver reflection of the steel after the collision. After carefully observing for a few seconds, he was surprised to find that the large metal object was actually a relatively complete-looking ship anchor, but the chain was broken for unknown reasons.

"It should be the kind of old-fashioned anchor used for sailing ships of about 100 tons." The chief mate who was on the deck calming the sailors who were a little nervous because of the sudden change of the ship also raised his telescope and looked in the direction of the little doll As an old seaman, he recognized the specific situation of the anchor at a glance.

"About 100 tons." After hearing this word, Reso seemed to think of something. He took out a palm-sized silver medal from his arms ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ The brand was also inlaid with a crystal with metallic light. And now, the crystal was shaking quickly at a very high frequency, carrying the silver medal with a crisp buzzing sound.

"Yes, we found the place." After a few simple fiddling with the silver medal, Reso looked at Lawrence excitedly and said, "Yes, we found the place, John is in the cave. And he is still alive. "

"Really? Hurry up and send a report to the suffering church for help." Lawrence quickly ran into the telegraph room and shouted to the telegrapher after confirming. He knew that the best way at this time was to call Yuan Jun to come and help while he was taking advantage of it. . But the telegrapher received the order and pressed the key shortly after sweating on his forehead, then raised his head and looked at Lawrence and said, "There is strong electromagnetic interference around us. We can't send a report now."

"Damn it." Lawrence hammered the door frame lightly with his hand, and then took out a communication card. It turns out that the communication card that could cover 1/5 of the sea of ​​stars has actually reduced the effective communication distance to less than 500 meters.

This let him know at once the reason why John and the others failed to send out the signal. Obviously, their ship should have been attacked by this island. As a result, although they were killed in a cave and survived, the island is still alive. The belt's powerful interference ability completely cut off their hope for help.
