Chapter 29 Holy Light Wendell! Roya's Three-Pronged Approach [Two-in-One, Seeking First Subscription!]
Roya's favorite thing is to confront beast tamers.
A Beastmaster's combat power depends not on their own rank, but on the rank of the beast they control, just as a Mechanic's combat power depends not on their own rank, but on the rank of their equipment.
As a control-type individual, his remote control ability over machinery far surpasses that of a Beastmaster's control over beasts.
Instead of trying to outmaneuver Roya with kite-flying tactics, the Beastmaster would have a much better chance of winning by physically fighting Roya.
But now, Roya no longer only has the first-tier Blue Dragonfly.
He now possesses Tier 5 combat armor: Yellow Sand Guard!
Two crimson steam blades, a cluster flame cannon, a barrel-fire rifle, a dozen tracking bullets, and a shock blast pod —
Even if the beast tamers start fighting each other, he still has the advantage!
Moreover, Ishtar was also sitting in the passenger seat.
This time, he even received precise intelligence from the Spinosaurus: no blood energy or steam of rank 5 or above was detected in the entire Arden Extraordinary Factory.
So, faced with the trap, Ron decided to play along and jumped off the deck to rescue Ron's sister.
The quicksand flows like a churning river.
The wind blows through the grass, which dances gracefully in the air.
Yellow sand guardians fell from the sky.
Once the distance was right, Roya fired a harpoon cannon downwards.
It accurately hit the white-bearded scallop that was making the girl's cry for help!
*Pfft*
The spiderweb-like fishing net burst open instantly, tightly binding the scallops.
Scallops instinctively burrow into the sand.
The yellow sand guardian immediately changed its flight direction and pulled upwards at an angle.
The rope of the harpoon cannon tightened instantly!
With a pull and a tug, they achieved a balance.
This was something Roya hadn't expected.
"It seems that this Mr. Mulong not only possesses the power of a second-tier scallop, but also wants to personally engage in a tug-of-war with me."
The Yellow Sand Guard is an agile combat armor, not good at carrying heavy loads. Despite being a dignified Tier 5 armor, it was evenly matched with the combined forces of the scallop, sand, and beast tamer.
suddenly!
The sea of sand rippled, creating eerie waves.
"Um?
A giant, fifth-tier sandworm leaped out of the sea of sand!
With its gaping maw exceeding fifty meters in diameter, it swallowed a scallop and then headed towards the yellow sand guardian.
The speed wasn't so fast that the yellow sand guards couldn't avoid it.
However, the yellow sand guard, caught in a tug-of-war, did not choose to drop the rope and escape, but instead fell straight into the mouth of the sand worm.
Luo Ya's vision went black.
The armor was propelled rapidly down by the quicksand from the sandworm's mouth.
It feels like the slide that Roya played on when he was a child.
"You think a mere sandworm can digest my luxurious armor?"
The yellow sand guard did not resist, but took the opportunity to drag the white-bearded scallop into the armor's storage compartment.
In the blink of an eye, it entered the sandworm's stomach.
Fine, hard pebbles surged in from all directions, beginning to squeeze the armor's outer shell and penetrate the exhaust pipe.
The gastric juice of sandworms is generally not acidic, far less corrosive than that of multiwinged mother sandworms. They use the layers of stones attached to the inner wall of their stomach sac to continuously grind their prey through contraction and peristalsis.
While the armor was being ground down by high pressure, acidic digestive fluids slowly seeped into the gaps in the armor and into the exhaust pipes.
He immediately shut down the steam boiler and sealed the exhaust pipe.
In the confined space, the slow, grinding sound of gravel and stomach acid made Luo Ya clench his teeth, feeling a chill run down his spine.
That's it.
The yellow sand guard, with its fully enclosed cast iron shell, can withstand the pressure of the stomach sac and stomach acid for an hour!
"If I'm too aggressive, the enemy will flee. I can just pretend to be trapped inside the insect's belly and use my blood energy to observe the deployment and control the overall situation."
The dispersed mechanical divine sense instantly covered the entire sandworm.
It was a colossal object 500 meters long!
Fortunately, it wasn't as long as his wire.
Luo Ya quickly located the sandworm burning crystal.
But he did not attack the burning crystal immediately.
Instead, they observed the front lines by observing the blood aura left on the Spinosaurus.
The locust swarm has completely surrounded the crippled Spinosaurus.
Most of the crew members fainted, and the few superhumans who remained conscious were unable to use their abilities.
Delnov reluctantly chose to open the steam shield over burning the insect swarm.
With multiple blockages in the exhaust pipe valves, the steam boiler, forced to restart, operated at less than 30% capacity. By sacrificing exhaust, it barely maintained a relatively safe steam shield.
Relatively safe means that the Spinosaurus, with its ample reserves of phlogiston and steam, released steam to allow the locust swarm to begin feeding.
They were trying to overfeed these toothed sand locusts.
Even if they can't withstand the overwhelming beast tide, they can at least hold out until rescue arrives or an emergency evacuation is needed.
However, if other high-level beasts appear during this period, the Spinosaurus will be unable to withstand them and will face certain death.
This was all Delnov could do.
Luo Ya guessed that the Beastmaster was too preoccupied with his battle with the Sandworm and was no longer able to breach a Spinosaurus with sixth-tier defense.
But faced with hundreds of millions of sand locusts and the blood-red smoke still permeating the ship's hold, the Spinosaurus could hardly reverse the situation.
"A strong fortress is always breached from within."
Delnov sighed, turned around and stuffed Prince Tali into the emergency pod, ready to evacuate at any time.
Prince Tali still couldn't accept reality, his eyes vacant, repeatedly muttering, "I don't want to run away, Uncle Will will save me!"
"But there was no light in your eyes when you said that. I think Your Highness, being so wise, should have already guessed something."
"I can't guess, how could I possibly guess—"
Just then—
Luo Ya, emerging from the belly of an underground insect, activates the blood-energy connection!
All the ship's exhaust fans and cooking hoods were shut down simultaneously.
All external air vents are sealed.
All internal jet pipes are open.
At the same time, the entire furnace was ignited.
All twelve boilers were started up quickly and efficiently!
Delnov was stunned and speechless.
"not good-
No, no, good, excellent!
In an instant, the scalding high-pressure steam flowed back, completely dispersing the blood-coagulated smoke that was clogging the valve and exhaust pipe.
The driver's cab was filled with high-temperature steam and blood-coagulated smoke.
Fortunately, the space is large enough that the suffocating effect is slow.
The next moment, the exhaust fan, the range hood, and the airship's external jet vents all opened.
All the blood scum and high-pressure steam were quickly drawn out and ejected from the twelve external nozzles!
With alternating directions, they quickly evacuated the blood and smoke from inside the airship.
Release the airship's reserve air.
The Spinosaurus started at full speed, braving the swarm of sand locusts, and slowly sailed towards the very center of the sky island.
Delnov twitched his nose slightly, and surprisingly, even in the cockpit where all the steam and blood fumes had been expelled, he could smell a faint wisp of blood.
He understood—it was Roya!
Roya's blood energy can control the steam boiler.
At the same time, they also hijacked the nearly paralyzed Spinosaurus and headed to the dangerous center of the Sky Island to lead the way for the Wide-Range Silent Ship.
First-tier blood energy —
Delnov believed he had the ability to sever Roya's blood control, but it was clearly ill-timed.
Considering that Prince Will was most likely an enemy, he had no choice but to cooperate with Roya. He immediately commanded several second- and third-tier superhumans who were still conscious: "Superhuman abilities cannot be recovered in a short time. Take a few armored vehicles out and burn the insect swarm!"
"yes!"
Two Tier 3 armored vehicles and two Tier 3 ornithopters quickly detached from the airship and plunged into the swarm of insects.
And so, with its power and defenses restored, the Spinosaurus sailed majestically toward the center of the sky island, braving the swarms of insects and the sparse, scorching flames.
Luo Ya, deep inside the Sand Sea Worm's belly, breathed a sigh of relief.
He released his control over his blood and qi, and immediately took a blood-replenishing medicine to replenish his strength.
"Prince Tali's survival to this day owes much to this advisor named Delnov."
At this moment, Prince Tali, having regained his senses, struggled to climb out of the emergency room and return to the cockpit.
Looking at the airships that had resumed operation, the armored vehicles that took the initiative to attack, and the ornithopters, he seemed somewhat dazed.
"Did Uncle Will save me?"
Delnov was speechless, and fearing he might provoke the prince, he could only try to provoke him indirectly: "Ahem, I seem to remember that Prince Will joined a beast-taming troupe back then?"
Almost at the same time.
The Wide Area Silent Ship also ran into trouble.
Through the blood energy left on the Wide-Area Silence, Roya was startled to discover that the sound of chanting, sometimes near, sometimes far, was coming from above the sky island.
A thick black fog surged in from all directions, quickly enveloping the Wide-Area Silence.
On the deck, Ron did not call for help from Roya, but immediately went into battle mode.
"Damn it, it's Mr. Spiritual Insight!"
Luo Ya frowned.
"Mr. Spiritual Insight is still alive—didn't Wendell cut off his head?"
Luo Ya then realized that the enemy's primary target was not him, but the Wide Area Silence.
Could it be Ron?
Or a blue dragonfly?
Or is it that Ron's sister was used as bait, and the real targets were Ron and Blue Dragonfly?
Luo made a quick decision.
Using the remaining high-pressure steam in the boiler, he immediately activated the only blast-type emergency ejection pod in the armor, which could only carry one person, and said to Ishtar in the co-pilot's seat: "The airship is in danger. You go up and prioritize protecting Blue Dragonfly and Ron."
Ishtar's eyes lit up: "You noticed too?"
What do you mean by "surprisingly"? You're only using wind or demonic energy to probe, but I have my own blood energy constantly residing within me. As long as the distance isn't too far, I can detect you even through a spatial barrier!
Luo Ya calmly analyzed, "Forcing them to split up and then defeating them one by one, that's the enemy's tactic—and for some reason, the enemy seems to have a special fondness for the Blue Dragonfly; you must protect it well."
"Didn't you want me to protect you?"
"The enemy's objective seems to be to trap me. It will be at least an hour before my armor collapses. I have a way to escape—in fact, for me, it's safer underground than in the air."
"Fine, I'll make you a demon if you die."
With anticipation in mind, Ishtar's eyes flickered slightly, and she immediately sat in the emergency seat between the driver and passenger seats.
The emergency medical unit quickly sank into the belly compartment and transferred Ishtar into the sealed emergency medical unit.
The emergency rescue cabin uses a high-pressure phlogiston cannon as the explosive force, and has shock-absorbing springs inside. The cabin head is a rotating, sharp drill bit that can break through layers of obstacles in an instant.
Luo Ya set the drill bit direction and immediately pulled the lever to detonate.
"emission!"
With a loud bang!
The bullet-shaped emergency medical pod shot out!
The high-speed rotating drill bit instantly pierced through the sandworm's stomach and body, creating a violent torrent from the sea of sand.
It flew diagonally out of the desert, relying on the inertia of the explosion to fly towards the Wide-Area Silence.
at the same time.
The sandworm let out a muffled wail, frantically twisting its head and body, squeezing its stomach even more frantically.
In the blink of an eye, the injured area was folded and hidden, and it quickly replenished its mucus to heal itself.
The yellow sand guard, having shut down the boiler, had no intention of escaping through its stomach sac with its wounds.
Luo Ya quietly extended the iron wire, wandered inside the frantically squeezing stomach, found the unhealed drill wound, and slipped out.
Heading straight for the burning crystal!
In the blink of an eye, it bound the giant burning crystal, which was more than three meters in diameter and located on the front abdomen of the sandworm.
The iron wire was too low-grade to pierce the insect crystal.
However, it can entangle and twist the main nerves connected to the insect crystal, and sever the nerve endings.
The sandworms, which were moving swiftly through the desert as if heading towards a certain destination, suddenly stopped moving.
Instead, it curled up, twisting wildly and applying pressure inward, trying to crush the armor and break the wires.
However, the wealthy man's armored defenses were impregnable.
The iron wire remains were longer than the sandworms themselves, and the iron wires were thin enough to pass through the cell walls of the sandworms. The sandworms could not break the iron wires by twisting their bodies.
Unless the Beastmaster himself is present, facing off against Roya in a two-on-one situation, he might pose some threat.
"Which Beastmaster isn't fragile? Does Mr. Dragon Shepherd dare to confront my Tier 5 armor?"
Thus, the yellow sand guardian and the sand worm were locked in a stalemate, with neither able to gain the upper hand.
That's exactly the effect Luo Ya wanted.
Wide-area silence signal.
The emergency medical pod, which shot out from the cockpit of the yellow Sand Guard, passed through the black mist and landed steadily on the deck.
Ishtar crawled out of the emergency pod rather undignifiedly.
Ron, in the Blue Dragonfly cockpit, was getting anxious: "Miss Wendell, don't worry about me, hurry and save Mr. Roya, he's been swallowed by sandworms!"
Ishtar knew, of course, that he was desperate to save his sister.
"He deserved it, and so did you—but your sister has good talent; perhaps she's a good candidate for demonic possession."
Ron looked completely bewildered.
Is this still the same pure and gentle Miss Wendell?
Just then!
An aged, hoarse voice descended from the sky: "So, that kid actually went to rescue a child who was about to die while he was in the yellow armor, and even helped the female guard escape after he got trapped. He really is a knight."
Above the deck, a headless figure draped in a black robe slowly materialized from the billowing black mist.
It was Mr. Spiritual Awareness who, after being beheaded by Wendell's sword, escaped as a demon and was close to breaking through to the fifth rank.
""
As the headless demon coalesced behind him, his ventriloquism emitted a deeper, more muffled hum.
He finally saw the woman who had chopped off his head with a sword.
"Unfortunately, women and children alike—you infidels must all die!"
Ishtar's aura solidified, and she slowly released her demonic energy.
Above Mr. Yu Lingjue's fourth-order demonic body, a more majestic and higher-ranking fifth-order demonic shadow condensed.
She looked down at the smooth neck of the headless demon below and couldn't help but sneer: "You're not even a match for Wendell, yet you think you can kill me?"
Lingjue, who was intimidated by the demonic energy, forcibly recited scriptures to stabilize his mind.
Wendell?
So who are you?
He then realized that the woman in front of him was a weak-willed, dual-personality demon, and a plan instantly formed in his mind.
"I must thank you for breaking the seal on me, which allowed me to completely fall into demonic ways. Only after abandoning my human body did I finally realize that I am a born demonic genius, and it was the Holy Spirit Church that hindered my progress!"
As he spoke, he clasped his hands together and began to recite another scripture.
The ghostly chanting of scriptures came and went, sometimes near, sometimes far, sometimes indistinct, enticing people to listen carefully to discern it.
Ron covered his ears beforehand, prompted by Roya's reminder.
Ishtar listened intently, but even as a demon lord, she couldn't understand. She could only sneer to save face: "Only mediocre, acquired demon talents like you would need any demon scriptures. Hurry up and recite them. I'll kill you after you reach the fifth rank, so you can understand the difference in status between us."
Roya finally understood why Ishtar, who clearly possessed the power to overwhelm the Papacy, was sealed away after her body was swapped.
This female demon is a pure numerical monster in terms of talent and figure; she has absolutely no brains.
Of course, Luo Ya was grateful that she was brainless, because that gave him the opportunity to take advantage of her.
As the chanting grew louder and more distant, a black and white halo suddenly appeared above Mr. Lingjue's head.
"Of course you won't understand. This is the Holy Spirit Bible that I personally adapted. You can call it the Holy Spirit Bible."
As she spoke, the black and white halo above her head began to rotate, disturbing the airflow and actually absorbing and purifying the demonic energy dissipating from Ishtar.
In an instant!
Ishtar's demonic energy was dissipating at an unstoppable pace.
Her original demonic energy was also suppressed. If she were to force her way through, it would harm Wendell's body, which now belonged to her.
The eerie demon in front of her, constantly chanting scriptures, disgusted her.
In comparison, even the mediocre Roya appears handsome and pleasantly fragrant.
She suddenly regretted returning to the Wide-Range Silent Ship.
"You should kill yourself; I don't want to eat you."
Mr. Spiritual Awareness, who had been absorbing and purifying the demonic energy of Ishtar, was now drinking sweet dew and breaking through the bottleneck that had hindered him for many years to advance to the fifth rank!
The raging demonic flames merged with holy light and soared into the sky!
A new head slowly grew from her neck. She took a deep breath, and her blissful expression made her look ten years younger in an instant.
"Your demonic energy is very pure, which shows that your demonic talent is superior to mine. But unfortunately, you have met me. I have comprehended and fused the Holy Spirit Scripture and the Black Demon Scripture. Now you are one with the Holy Spirit and the Demon."
The psychic demonic body, with a black and white holy light halo above its head, slowly rose into the air until it was above Ishtar's demonic shadow. It opened its arms and spoke as if chanting a scripture: "Without a doubt, my status is above yours."
97
Inside the Blue Dragonfly cockpit, Ron's blood trembled, his eyes glazed over, and his body, soul, and prosthetic limbs were on the verge of collapsing simultaneously.
Even Luo Ya, who was far inside the belly of the Sand Sea Worm, sensed the terrifying duality of the Holy and Demonic nature of Mr. Lingjue through the blood energy devoured by the demonic energy.
Ishtar, not wanting to harm her own body, had no choice but to heed the advice from the mechanical watch on her wrist and let Wendell take over her physical body.
"You mean personality?"
She drew her sword, the blade shrouded in steam—
A holy white light, like the sun, pierced through the mist.
Mr. Lingjue's eyes glazed over, and the magic ring above his head trembled.
"This is impossible—"
