Fingel, who had been eavesdropping on the channel, was already prepared. Caesar was still questioning Fingel about why he was eavesdropping on the secret channel when Fingel dismissed him with a single sentence, citing Nono's safety.
"Junior Brother Gu Ran, we have to thank you for reminding us earlier, which allowed us to prepare the map."
Fingel took out a map and analyzed the Bronze City according to the principles of magical mechanics. He concluded that the Bronze City was moving in the opposite direction. If this continued, the palace would self-destruct, and Lu Mingfei and Nono had to get out immediately!
He invoked EVA's privileges and began to fully calculate the changes in the Bronze Palace maze, then had Norma lead the two of them!
Suddenly, a hazy white mist rose from the water outside the Moniach.
Everyone suddenly realized that the surrounding environment had changed.
Norton is here.
When he appeared, his entire body was enveloped in flames, radiating immense heat that heated the river water and produced a large amount of water vapor.
Chapter 219 The Bronze Project (Part Two)
"Damn, doesn't it know that this will damage the environment?" Gu Ran complained, the river water outside was close to 50 degrees Celsius.
At that moment, the Dragon Slayer Sword in his hand suddenly emitted a spiritual vision towards him.
I heard an old voice in my ears.
“I need Norton’s blood,” Dragonslayer said bluntly.
Gu Ran asked in his heart, "So, what kind of price are you willing to pay?"
"What?" The living spirit inside the Dragon Slayer Sword was suddenly stunned.
Since ancient times, it has always been the one demanding a price from others, yet this human dares to defy the Heavenly Gang!
"You said all power comes at a price?" Gu Ran said to the spirit inside the Dragon Slayer Sword. "You haven't forgotten how you treated me last time, have you?"
The last time Gu Ran used the Dragon Slayer Sword, his strength was still quite average. In order to resist the killing intent of the Dragon Slayer Sword, he was unconscious for almost a month.
It turns out that every time the Dragon Slayer Sword is used, it imposes a killing intent into the user's mind.
If this is not done, these murderous intents will be trapped inside the Dragon Slayer Sword, affecting the living beings within it.
The living spirit within the Dragon-Slaying Sword remained silent for a moment.
It said, "In 10 seconds, when you use me again, you will not be affected by the killing intent for 10 seconds."
"15 seconds," Gu Ran bargained with it. "One price, agree or not?"
“Agreed.” The spirit of the Dragon Slayer Sword reached a deal with Gu Ran.
Gu Ran asked, "Why didn't you want Constantine's blood before?"
“He had too little blood and was too weak at the time,” Zhanlongjian said.
Just as Gu Ran gained spiritual vision, Caesar seized the opportunity to become the acting captain and gain command.
Because Manstein is currently unconscious, all his attention is focused on controlling the 'snake' to help Norma convey a message to Lu Mingfei underwater.
Caesar gave orders to the crew around him, instructing Zero to launch the torpedoes, while the others performed their duties, and he loaded the sniper rifle with bullets.
A student council member asked Gu Ran to help him put out the fire, but Gu Ran, holding the Dragon Slayer Sword, sat to the side without moving.
"Professor Manstein said that I am just a medic, and I don't want to do anything else if I'm not on a medical mission."
The students here are all members of the student council, except for him, who belongs to the Lionheart Club. The student council members all cast disapproving glances at him when they saw a first-year student daring to disobey his senior's orders.
Caesar recalled the night the dragons invaded, when the principal agreed to let Gu Ran fight freely, and thought that this must be his way of fighting.
So I didn't pay him any more attention.
At that moment, a violent tremor came from the hull of the Moniach, followed by a series of muffled thuds.
Two of the watertight compartments have leaked!
This ship has six watertight compartments that provide buoyancy. If two more leak, the ship will sink!
To avoid becoming a fixed target, Caesar ordered the ships to move.
His Word of Power, Kamaitachi, could clearly sense that something was attacking the ship from underwater.
Gu Ran reminded him, "Is there something wrong with the sonar? Why can't we find anything?"
The crew quickly checked and found that the sonar was indeed missing.
Outside the ship, a dark gray figure began to run, its entire body covered in flame-like light.
He boarded the Moniach and casually tossed in the dismantled sonar transmitter.
This is... Dragon King Norton!
Seeing this, Gu Ran was about to chase after them, but was stopped by the Dragon Slayer Sword: "Not enough, not enough. Norton's dragon blood is not perfect yet."
Hearing this, Gu Ran stood still, watching Norton walk away.
At the same time, a huge dragon-shaped figure appeared from the bottom of the water and leaped out of the water.
Norton leaped up and mounted the dragon shadow on its neck.
This enormous creature was none other than Samson, the Dragon Attendant!
The dragon king Norton gently stroked the huge head of his dragon servant Samson, then suddenly plunged his hands into Samson's head!
Samson let out a low groan, as if enduring immense pain, his voice growing weaker and weaker.
Kassel College had limited knowledge of this and didn't know what Norton and Samson were up to, thinking they were killing each other.
Only Caesar and Gu Ran knew, and they said in unison, "They have merged."
Norton did not emerge from the cocoon, but instead chose to sacrifice a powerful race for fusion.
They quickly merged.
Then, Norton's angry dragon eyes turned to the people on the ship.
……
Underwater, Lu Mingfei and Nuonuo, guided by Norma, began their rapid escape from the bronze palace.
The two fled and eventually arrived at a place with a bronze wall.
Another place full of life.
This is the exit!
During her escape, Nono accidentally found the Seven Deadly Sins. She knew at a glance that it was a treasure, so she carried it with her.
Norma's emotionless voice warned the two that they had to escape within twenty seconds, because a trap had been activated and they would be crushed into a pulp in twenty seconds.
"Quick, cut your finger, just a little blood." Nono urged Lu Mingfei while holding Seven Deadly Sins.
Since Lu Mingfei was able to open the entrance to the Bronze Palace with his own blood, he can now open the exit as well.
Lu Mingfei dawdled because his wrist was bandaged, preventing blood circulation. As a result, after cutting his finger, the blood that was cut was immediately washed away by the water, and he couldn't get any blood to Huoling.
As for why the other hand wasn't cut off, it's because the wetsuit on the other hand was intact and couldn't be cut off!
"Look at you, so pathetic!" Nono rolled her eyes, but still calmly comforted him, "Don't be afraid, it'll only be a little blood, just be quick."
Nono braced herself against the rolling boulder, trying her best to hold on a little longer.
If they delay any longer, they will be crushed into mincemeat.
Ignoring the pain, Lu Mingfei tore off the bandage and slapped Huo Ling across the face.
Without the restraint of the hemostatic bandage, blood circulation in the fingertips resumed, quickly delivering the blood to the living creature's mouth.
But Lu Mingfei's diving suit started leaking oxygen, and he lost consciousness.
Junior high school physics teaches that for every 10.3 meters the body dives, it experiences a water pressure equivalent to an increase of one atmosphere.
Their diving suits are meant to maintain air pressure, but Lu Mingfei's diving suit is torn, and he is now in a high-pressure environment underwater.
If you rise too quickly, the water pressure will change too rapidly, and you may develop decompression sickness.
However, if he doesn't rise quickly, Lu Mingfei will suffer from oxygen leakage and die from lack of oxygen.
The situation is becoming increasingly critical!
……
On the surface of the water, Caesar was shocked to hear Manstein shout "Oxygen leaking from the bottom of the water!" before he lost consciousness.
By this time, the Moniach had already traveled two kilometers from its original position, and he quickly arranged for people to lower the diving bell.
A diving bell can provide oxygen and also has a decompression function, making it a safe haven for divers.
At this point, the Moniach suffered another watertight leak, and if the delay continued, the ship was likely to sink!
Therefore, Caesar proposed a combat plan to use the conventional warhead of the Storm torpedo to penetrate Norton's body through physical force.
There were zero people who launched the torpedoes.
Gu Ran knew the outcome; this battle plan was useless.
The bullets were ineffective against Constantine because the King of Bronze and Fire has the ability to command metal.
Therefore, the Storm Torpedo, which is also made of metal, is useless against Norton.
Caesar and Zero did not realize this and mistakenly believed that Norton used fire to melt the metal.
In fact, it controls 88 metallic elements and can directly command the metals.
Gu Ran had previously used his Sharingan to copy its ability to command metal, so he was well aware of this.
But Norton cannot command alchemical weapons.
Because alchemical weapons are made of dead metal.
At this moment, Caesar was wielding a sniper rifle loaded with Philosopher's Stone magazines, engaging Norton in a duel to draw Norton's attention.
To prevent it from going to the diving bell and attacking Nono and Lu Mingfei.
Gu Ran closed his eyes slightly, sensing the Flying Thunder God mark on Norton's body.
When the school was invaded by the dragons last time, Gu Ran hugged and shook hands with Lao Tang, leaving two Flying Thunder God marks on him.
Both marks can still be sensed now.
The closer Norton got, the more scorching the heat emanating from him became.
