The Trickster King

Chapter 390 The Clash of Water and Fire

This is the gap, the huge gap!

Xiao Xun finally understood the opponent's prowess, why the Twelve Star Envoys had been defeated by the opponent without a sound.

However, the opponent was not the real sea. Therefore, she had a weakness.

And Delvana, as a Valkyrie, found the opponent's weakness.

Divine Fire Ravens.

At this moment, hundreds of ravens were fluttering in the air. Do not underestimate the power of these ravens; they were not only powerful in number but also possessed immense might.

As the hundreds of ravens fluttered lifelike, the mermaid discovered that her perception magic field, which was like a tidal wave, had been completely pierced by the opponent's ravens.

Most importantly, her water could not extinguish the opponent's fire.

Now, under Delvana's control, the ravens formed an incredibly terrifying destructive force.

The mermaid was surrounded by countless beautiful crimson ravens. Using softness to overcome hardness, Delvana had completely suppressed the mermaid.

The mermaid knew that if she were touched by these ravens emitting a crimson glow, it would be a severe burn. wap.kanshu伍.net

Facing the ever-increasing number of ravens, the mermaid would exploit the opponent's underestimation of her to launch a fierce attack.

If Delvana had done so earlier, the mermaid would now be in a very passive situation. After all, casting magic consumes time.

Tsunami

An immense surge of magic emanated from the mermaid.

Her eyes were replaced by azure water ripples. The fierce roar of waves appeared at any moment, and the magic, like ocean waves, began to rage and become ferocious.

Listening to the roar of the tsunami, she looked up abruptly and immediately saw a colossal wave filling the air, destroying and crashing everything as it descended upon her, as if carrying billions of tons of water pressure.

This immense pressure seemed capable of crushing her into powder in an instant.

Delvana watched all this with utter astonishment. She had fully witnessed the combat power of a water mage when they unleashed their full potential. It would transform into a flood and a fierce beast, destroying everything and overwhelming everything.

Completely... completely...

The monstrous waves had already taken shape!

Delvana felt the vast magic contained within these colossal waves and sensed that this wave was not even the mermaid's strongest magic.

The gap made Delvana feel that if the mermaid unleashed her full power, turning the tsunami into a super tsunami, this place would likely be destroyed by the immense waves.

How terrifying. This was still on land, not at sea. If it were on the sea, the merfolk would be terrifyingly invincible existences.

At this moment, Delvana couldn't help but feel a tremor in her heart, terrified by the powerful water magic before her.

The colossal waves, under the mermaid's continuous manipulation, powerfully surged down towards Xiao Rou. It was like a god, like the giant hand of a titan.

The mermaid formed her fingers into a palm and pressed down. The massive waves erupted into a thunderous tsunami, surging forward.

Seeing this, Xiao Xun swiftly moved forward, shielding Delvana behind him. White light flashed from his hands, and like a 'giant whale sucking water,' the massive waves flowed into a funnel, all absorbed by Xiao Xun. Not a single drop spilled onto the ground.

Guixu!

The mermaid was astonished. This was the absolute forbidden zone of the merfolk in the myths she knew from childhood; all seawater would eventually flow back into that place.

Xiao Xun forcibly suppressed the tsunami, shivered, and said to the mermaid, "We agreed to stop when it's enough, do you want to kill someone!"

The mermaid had not yet recovered from her shock when Xiao Xun unleashed the water magic he had absorbed towards the sea. A massive trident made of water plunged into the water, creating a colossal wave that shattered a deep-sea squid. Behind the deep-sea squid was the vast Deep Sea Elite Squad.

The captain, facing this scene, thought their offensive intention had been discovered and immediately issued a retreat order.

Such exquisite control of magic, it had reached the point of effortless command.

The mermaid discovered that Xiao Xun's magic manipulation ability was only superior to hers, not inferior.

So when Xiao Xun opened his eyes, his gaze upon the mermaid held a trace of surprise and envy. There was even a hint of admiration.

Such a look made Xiao Xun somewhat unbearable. Without a word, he turned to leave.

But at this moment, the mermaid suddenly called out, "Prince Swain, can you teach me water magic?"

Xiao Xun's footsteps paused, and he turned to look at her.

At this moment, no one knew what the mermaid was thinking. But they knew Xiao Xun's answer. He almost directly refused, "No."

A flicker of disappointment flashed in the mermaid's eyes.

Xiao Xun felt the surging power from before and was extremely excited. He didn't know any water magic. However, he discovered that the more magical energy he accepted, the more an unspeakable pressure he felt in his body, but releasing it was incredibly satisfying.

And that satisfaction was like paying off all loans at once and having a surplus, indescribable in words.

Although Xiao Xun could not directly release magic, he felt his mental state was excellent, with an indescribable surge of power.

The winter fields and mountains appeared particularly vast. The northwest wind drilled into the Midoya mountain range, whistling sharply between the peaks and valleys, as if freezing the exposed rocks to the point of cracking.

People engaged in outdoor activities had their mouths as if holding cigarettes, exhaling clouds of white mist.

Although the sea had not frozen, the biting icy water made everyone feel that the deep-sea legion would not attack this winter.

But Xiao Xun did not think so. He knew that the deep sea's normal temperature was much colder than the current ambient temperature, and the pressure was immense. The soldiers of the deep-sea legion were either soft-bodied creatures or possessed a shell harder than steel.

The submarines were being built smoothly. When they were launched, Xiao Xun took Aries to participate in the ceremony. The first batch of submarine crews was also selected, all thin and small young people, with several key positions held by goblins.

People in this world also needed to breathe oxygen. Xiao Xun installed two air compressors and one oxygen generator in the submarines. If it weren't for these two devices, the submarines would have been tested for launch long ago.

Since Xiao Xun only had theory and manuals, not blueprints, the mechanics spent a bit of effort during production.

In the captain's cabin, Xiao Xun watched as a mechanic fired a torpedo at a target. Through sonar detection, the torpedo shattered a reef over a thousand meters away.

"What is the effective range of this torpedo?"

In response to Xiao Xun's inquiry, a mechanic said, "If there are no obstructions ahead, propelled by the magic stone, it can reach five thousand nautical miles."

Xiao Xun exclaimed in surprise, "It can go that far?"

The mechanic nodded, "This is theoretical. If the magic stone's magic is higher, it might go even further."

Xiao Xun pondered, why would he need such a long range when he couldn't even see people? "Can the range be shortened and the speed increased?"

The mechanic in charge of the demonstration scratched his head. "That might be a problem because our current device can only make the magic stone push this object forward. To increase speed, we would need the magic stone to increase its explosive power. If not made properly, unforeseen consequences might occur, such as an explosion."

Upon hearing the goblin mechanic's words, Xiao Xun gave up. He was a person who took advice well.

Xiao Xun toured around again and ordered the submarine to begin surfacing.
