Chapter 241: Piggybacking on the Elder, the Sky-Scorching Ship Counterattacks the Fourth-Rank Blood
Chapter 241: Piggybacking on the Elder, the Sky-Scorching Ship Counterattacks the Fourth-Rank Blood Float Continent
The Blood Float Continent is divided into five major regions.
Among them, the Blood East Region is one of the weaker regions, with only two Fourth-Rank Blood Float Clans. Song Chi, however, chose not the Blood North Region, which is the weakest, but the Blood East Region, which is the second-weakest.
The Blood North Region is too weak, and even the lower-ranked Blood Float Clans are scarce, so Song Chi chose the Blood East Region to avoid the Golden Lion Baron Family's people.
The Sky-Scorching Ship, equipped with the Void Membrane component, landed in the vast mountain range of the Blood East Region.
This Blood Float Continent, as a Fourth-Rank Floating Continent, is not comparable to the Soul Float Continent, which is only at the Fourth-Rank threshold. The mountain range alone stretches over ten million kilometers, surpassing the entire diameter of the Soul Float Continent.
With this mountain range as cover, Song Chi felt more at ease and released 35 Void Shadow Killer Puppets and a Fourth-Rank Void Demon to attack the Blood East Region's Blood Float Clans.
The city of Dawn City, with over three million Blood Float Clans, was the first target. The 35 Void Shadow Killer Puppets and the Fourth-Rank Void Demon led the hunt, and the speed of the hunt was astonishing, with hundreds of low-ranked Blood Float Clans dying every second.
After the hunt, the nearly 300 humanoid aliens led by the Totem Spirit Beast Cold Moon Snow Python quickly cleaned up the battlefield, leaving no time to waste.
In just a few days, the city of Dawn City was cleared, and Song Chi's team moved on to another city. However, the Blood Float Continent was too vast, and the distance between cities was enormous, making it difficult to travel quickly.
Song Chi's plan to hide in the shadows and let the Void Shadow Killer Puppets and the Void Demon do the hunting was foiled, and the Sky-Scorching Ship had to emerge from the mountains to travel to other cities.
Every time they arrived at a new city, Song Chi would release the Void Shadow Killer Puppets, Fire Chrysanthemum Puppets, and humanoid aliens to hunt, and then hide the Sky-Scorching Ship again.
He knew that if the Sky-Scorching Ship were to join the hunt, the speed would be faster, but it would not mean that the collection of blood Bodhi would be faster. The main cannon and secondary cannon of the Sky-Scorching Ship would likely damage the blood Bodhi, making it impossible to collect.
In the end, Song Chi did not let the Sky-Scorching Ship join the hunt.
Time passed quickly, and in over 20 days, Song Chi, or rather the Sky-Scorching Ship, had traveled to over a dozen medium-sized cities, including 12 cities with a population of over one million and one city with a population of over ten million.
As a result, the Void Shadow Killer Puppets and the Void Demon had killed over two million Blood Float Clans, including over a thousand Third-Rank Blood Float Clans, and the corresponding blood Bodhi was also collected.
Song Chi believed that this harvest would be enough to put him in the top ten of the 18 people, but he would not stop here and would continue to collect more blood Bodhi for himself and his family.
After all, such opportunities only come once every fifty years, and he wouldn’t be easily satisfied.
However, just as the Cobalt Number was about to head to another million-level city, an urgent alert from the radar display forced him to put down what he was doing and focus entirely on this matter.
The Silver III Generation Ultrasonic Mana Detection Radar detected a creature emitting strong energy fluctuations rapidly approaching. In front of it, there was a faint energy fluctuation of a Second Rank.
Clearly, this creature, whose energy strength the ultrasonic mana detection radar couldn’t accurately determine, was chasing a Second Rank Flame Torch Warship.
The specific strength of this creature, which even the Level 39 peak level Orange Radar couldn’t accurately detect, could only be that of a Fourth Rank existence.
"Which clan member or Philip family captain has angered a Fourth Rank Bloodti Clan member?"
After a moment of contemplation, Song Chi decided to join in the fun.
First, his initial goal had already been achieved, and there was no way he would fail. At the very least, passing the first stage would be no problem.
Second, he lacked a clear understanding of the Cobalt Number’s current combat power. He thought he could use this Fourth Rank peak Bloodti Clan member, enhanced by the Floating Land’s core origin rules, to test whether it could pose a fatal threat to the Cobalt Number.
Lastly, and most importantly, this Fourth Rank Void Demon was not far from their current position, and it wouldn’t waste much time.
Deciding to act, the Cobalt Number quickly sped out.
In less than twenty minutes, the Cobalt Number reached the vicinity of the two parties involved.
To Song Chi’s surprise, this Fourth Rank peak Bloodti Clan member, enhanced by the Floating Land’s rules, had a rather serious wound on its body.
Naturally, his first suspicion fell on the family’s escort ship, which was desperately fleeing from the Fourth Rank Bloodti Clan member.
After some observation, he gained a certain understanding of this escort ship, the Northern Ship.
The captain of the Northern Ship was named Song Bei, one of the eighteen candidates in the family’s current sequence. Originally, his performance was average, and most family members didn’t pay much attention to him. Now, however, Song Chi was greatly surprised.
If his judgment was correct, based on his brief deductions:
The Northern Ship had at least one Orange Quality energy shield and one Orange Quality engine. If one also considered the terrifying damage it inflicted on the Fourth Rank Bloodti Clan member, it was likely that it also had an Orange Quality main cannon. This would mean it had three Orange Quality ship components.
Song Chi was speechless.
This was just his initial judgment, not including other special ship components he was unaware of. How could he not be shocked?
After all, according to the information provided by his grandfather, Song Bei only came from the fifth direct line and had no Fourth Rank clan elder backing him. Yet, he still had such a configuration, indicating that he must have had some fortunate encounters in the past.
"Indeed, any clan member who is included in the sequence candidate list by the upper echelons of the family, regardless of their background, is definitely no ordinary person."
As Song Chi’s thoughts raced, the Fourth Rank Bloodti Clan member finally caught up to the Northern Ship.
At that moment, the blood-colored mystical power around it surged, and the Floating Land’s rule power manifested above the sky, providing the greatest possible enhancement.
In contrast, the Northern Ship, as an invading outsider, was comprehensively restricted. This disparity made it easy for the Fourth Rank Bloodti Clan member to swiftly approach the Northern Ship.
Standing nearly four kilometers tall, the Bloodti Clan member had an astonishing arm length. With the enhancement of countless bloodline runes, its sky-blocking arm fiercely struck the Northern Ship.
This near-all-out attack carried an awe-inspiring force, and in the Cobalt Number, Song Chi’s eyes flickered, hesitating about whether to intervene. However, the Northern Ship, now within the range of the Fourth Rank Bloodti Clan member, was the first to respond.
A dark glow appeared on its hull, and soon a layer of obsidian armor condensed on the surface of the ship, activating the active defense feature of the ship’s armor.
In the main control room of the Northern Ship, an elderly voice sounded.
"Xiao Bei, it seems your clan brother doesn’t intend to help you out of this predicament..."
Hearing this, the young man’s expression didn’t change, his gaze fixed on the rapidly approaching blood-colored arm above.
Unlike most creatures that follow the path of power, the Bloodti Clan members, after reaching the Fourth Rank, followed the rare path of blood. This made their movements less straightforward and brutal, but more eerie and unpredictable.
Boom!
The terrifying force struck the layer of obsidian armor, causing it to shatter instantly. The blood-colored arm then penetrated the energy shield and hit the Northern Ship’s hull armor.
This powerful attack sent the Northern Ship, which was only about a hundred and ten meters long, crashing into the ground below.
Boom!
A dull impact sound soon followed. Fortunately, the Northern Ship’s hull armor had also been reinforced to the Fourth Rank, or it might have sunk directly.
Even so, the Northern Ship’s condition was not optimistic.
Warning: Hull armor damaged 68%, hull damaged 40%. Please repair as soon as possible!
Affected by unknown energy, the ship's armor is corroding at a rate of 1% per second, and the ship's structure is also degrading at 1% per second. Please purify the unknown status as soon as possible.
...
From a distance of ten thousand meters, Song Chi, who had been observing, no longer remained hidden.
The engine roared, and the Cobalt Number rushed toward the battlefield.
After all, he was a genius of the family, and it wouldn't be good to let him die here. As for the competition for the sequence, Song Chi had long declared that he was determined to secure the Seventh Sequence. Now, with a silver-quality energy shield in hand, the sequence competition was essentially just a matter of his word.
Thus, he had no concerns about the other family members.
Swish, swish, swish, swish!
The external armor-piercing cobalt bullet launcher, the Pure Yang Sword Beam Cannon, the Electromagnetic Thunder Light Cannon, and the Cold Light Heavenly Frost Cannon all opened fire simultaneously, drawing the hate of the Bloodti Giant, who was about to launch a second attack.
The series of attacks landed on the already heavily wounded Bloodti Giant, causing the blood-colored mystical power surrounding it to become even more intense.
Seeing this, Song Chi quickly launched the second custom cobalt bullet and simultaneously revved up the warship's engine to create some distance.
Although the silver energy shield and the red ship hull armor were strong, it was still unnecessary to directly clash with a fourth-rank creature. The basic advantages of a warship should be utilized effectively.
However, Song Chi now understood the situation of the Northern Vessel earlier.
The surrounding space was restricted by the floating land rules, and the blood-colored streams that had appeared below tightly bound the Cobalt Number, making the Light Energy Aggregation Engine and the Phantom Propulsor move as slow as a turtle.
Clang, clang, clang!
The loud metallic impacts on the Cobalt Number had a minimal effect on Song Chi.
Warning: Warship damaged. Hull armor damaged by 12%, hull damaged by 1%.
This was before Song Chi activated the active characteristics of the hull armor, which clearly demonstrated the strength of the fourth-rank Central Star Nuclear Armor.
Song Chi didn't care about these. The moment the fourth-rank Bloodti Giant's attack landed, it revealed a significant weakness. Seeing this, Song Chi, who was already prepared, clicked the Cobalt Number's firing button.
The "Mixed Cave Extreme Yang Sword Intent Divine Light" that had been readied burst forth, surging straight toward the fourth-rank Bloodti Giant.
However, Song Chi had underestimated the enhancement from the floating land's origin rules and the reaction speed of the fourth-rank creature.
Although his timing was nearly perfect, the fourth-rank Bloodti Giant's speed was even faster, and it quickly retreated just as the Mixed Cave Extreme Yang Sword Intent Divine Light was about to reach it.
Even with the frost restriction from the Cold Light Heavenly Frost Cannon, the third-rank effect was limited against a fourth-rank creature. Just as the fourth-rank Bloodti Giant was about to escape the range of the Mixed Cave Extreme Yang Sword Intent Divine Light, the Northern Vessel, which had already recovered, took action.
A green beam shot out from its hull and quickly landed on the back of the fourth-rank Bloodti Giant, whose attention was now fully on the Cobalt Number.
In the next second, the previously agile fourth-rank creature suddenly paused.
This brief pause was all Song Chi needed. The Mixed Cave Extreme Yang Sword Intent Divine Light, now at level 40, struck the original wound on its chest, leaving a gash that nearly tore its body in half. However, this still didn't completely resolve the situation.
"Attack!"
Song Chi suddenly called out in his mind.
At the same moment, a figure with dark red spiral horns appeared in the void, wielding a massive spatial law blade, and charged toward the already weakened fourth-rank Bloodti Giant.
Buzz, buzz, buzz!
Intense spatial fluctuations emerged, but thanks to the fourth-rank floating land origin core stabilizing the space, no spatial rifts appeared. However, the cutting force of the spatial law blade was extremely formidable.
In the Northern Vessel, an elderly voice spoke again.
"A fourth-rank Void Demon, tsk tsk. Your elder clan member is truly hiding his strength. The enslavement component on his flagship is most likely of red epic quality."
Hearing this, the young man's face showed surprise.
"Red epic? How can you tell?"
The elderly voice replied calmly:
"What kind of creature is a Void Demon? They are one of the top star sea races below the peak. This is even more so for a fourth-rank Void Demon. It would take hundreds or even thousands of attempts for an orange enslavement component to enslave it.
Since this kid can achieve this at the second rank, it's most likely due to a red enslavement component."
Song Chi, of course, didn't know about the conversation in the Northern Vessel. If he had heard it, he might have instinctively thought:
"Grandpa on board? Isn't this the perfect start for the main character?"
...
In the Cobalt Number, as the Void Demon with the massive spatial law blade brutally cut into the fourth-rank Bloodti Giant, the Bloodti Giant, immobilized by unknown means, had no choice but to take the hit with its body.
Ding, received a strand of third-rank floating land origin!
When he heard this sudden notification, Song Chi was momentarily stunned. He had expected some complications, but he hadn't anticipated that this peak fourth-rank Bloodti Giant would be so easily slain. This left him momentarily speechless.
