The Seventh Base

Chapter 451: Chapter 71: Deep Sea Battle

The warship didn’t stop advancing, and suddenly, a barrage of firepower erupted from above.

In an instant, the ferocious Energy Light covered the sea ahead. The Monsters also emitted Energy Light, but under the warship’s formidable firepower, they were overwhelmed, emitting pitiful howls.

“Thump thump…” Below the warship, Monsters in the ocean attacked, but the warship’s firepower covered not only the sea surface but also targeted the seabed. While firing, the warship did not slow down much, maintaining a steady cruising speed.

Xu Mo watched the spectacular scene unfold before him; these ten warships were the top marine warships from Coastal City’s city cluster, capable of launching SS-level firepower. Even the synchronously fired Energy Light was of A+ grade.

After a round of sweeping fire, most of the Monsters could not withstand it.

The warship’s mission was to escort the main troops to their destination.

As the warship continued to advance, giant waves surged, and more sea Monsters appeared. The Energy Wave atop the warship was set to maximum to try to clear them away. If clearing was not possible, then they used firepower to forge a path.

The smartest of the giant beasts also had high intelligence. Seeing the human Super Fleet, they dared not block and started retreating, preparing to regroup.

“All fleet members, be advised, SS-level energy spotted ahead. Presumably, it’s the domain of a giant beast.” The mechanical voice announced, and Xu Mo stared in the direction of the distant SS-level giant beast.

He had never encountered one before.

The strongest Monster he had seen was of S-level, brought forth by Zero. He had once sat on the back of the Monster.

How terrifying could an SS-level Monster be?

A sharp shriek sounded from the depths ahead; suddenly, numerous Monsters crazily rushed towards the fleet, prompting the warship to unleash another barrage. Numerous streaks of Energy Light carved through the air, creating a blood rain over the sea surface.

But the Monster’s assault didn’t cease. Whether above the sea or within it, all Monsters seemed mad, even ignoring the sonic evictions, obviously agitated by something.

“Attention, SS-level Monster approaching.” The mechanical voice sounded again. At an extremely remote location, an immensely powerful energy fluctuation spread, hovering above the sea surface was the spine of a Monster, hundreds of meters long, with spike-like growths on its back.

“Buzz…”

A blinding light burst forth as the Monster in the sea spewed out an Energy Light Ball, which tore the sea apart, splitting the water in two. The fierce light charged towards the warship at terrifying speed.

Almost simultaneously, the warship fired as well. Two warships activated their weapons, with two blasts of strong light erupting, one intercepting and the other attacking.

The moment the strong lights collided, giant waves rose high, as if a massive bomb had been dropped into the ocean. Even from a distance, the wildly raging waves swept in, along with intense Energy Light, carrying the Power of Destruction.

The Energy Shield was activated to its maximum, and the Energy Shock Wave swept out, causing cracks in the Shield. Simultaneously, the warship was lifted into the air, tossed by the enormous wave.

“Boom…”

Another blast of strong light erupted, and angry roars from the Monsters echoed through the ocean. Then, the Monsters turned and left, racing through the ocean at terrifying speed.

“So powerful.” Xu Mo felt that if not for the protective shield, just the shock wave alone would have been enough to destroy an A-level Transcendent.

The warship was hindered by the giant waves in its path, swaying in the air above the sea, the immense warship now seemed like a small boat in a storm, as if it could be swallowed by the sea at any moment.

The shock wave swept toward the distance, and after some time, the sea surface gradually calmed down. Many Monster corpses floated on the ocean, all obliterated by the shock wave, these Monsters had no resistance.

The warship continued its escort forward, constantly attacked by Monsters. Along the way, many were terrified; this was the strongest marine fleet. If a small group ventured into the Deep Sea Area on their own, it would indeed be akin to seeking death, surely ending buried in the sea.

After a long while, the warship finally slowed down.

Dark clouds blanketed the sky in the distance, like an impending storm.

“All fleet members, please be advised, we have reached the outer perimeter of the coordinates. All fleet members, prepare for battle.” The mechanical voice announced, and everyone stared ahead, various devices emitting rapid beeping sounds, detecting strong energy radiation.

With the alert, the warship continued forward. They proceeded for a while before gradually nearing the storm, with giant waves sweeping in and a terrible storm whipping up on the sea surface; the sky appeared to have a terrifying cyclone, the serene blue long gone, replaced by menacing dark clouds, giving an extremely oppressive feeling.

Furthermore, moving forward, the cyclone in the sky formed a storm, with thunder and lightning, and the sea also harbored terrifying whirlpools, with outer giant waves challenging you and the central area being a devouring deep-sea vortex.

Dense clusters of Monsters appeared, with various rare giant beasts emerging up ahead, eyeing fiercely.

The warship’s speed slowed down increasingly until it almost stopped sailing, as the storm rolled in, the cyclone engulfed the warship as well, as if intending to swallow it whole.

“The warship formation cannot continue moving forward and will initiate a barrage before stopping in the outer area to wait for everyone. If danger is encountered, return immediately.” The mechanical voice in the warship sounded again, following which, a powerful energy fluctuation was released. Ten warships simultaneously deployed weapons and opened fire towards the sea domain ahead.
