【Ereph the Storm】
This [Ereph of the Storm] is a swordsman!
Mastering the Raging Wind Sword Technique, he is one of the strongest swordsmen in the Elf Kingdom!
This is currently the closest clue Vasak has found to the "Sword".
Crucially, the [Raging Wind Sword Technique] is also a frenzied sword technique, which corresponds perfectly to "chaos"!
Like a jigsaw puzzle being rapidly pieced together in his mind, Vasak believes this is one of the most crucial clues!
The word "chaos" may not only represent the chaos within the demon race, but also hint that the enemy is connected to "chaos".
The prophecy will not tell him its contents directly; he must interpret it himself.
It is also possible for a single image to be interpreted in different ways, leading to different interpretations.
However, Vasak made no attempt to contact Phoenix.
Since we assume that the other party has betrayed us, it is highly unlikely that the other party, as a demon of the level of a royal servant, would have no reinforcements.
What Vasak had to do was observe for the time being and continue the investigation.
We must not alert the enemy.
We must not act rashly!
Once the other side notices anything, they'll probably kill him first—that's Vasak!
Although he ranks third among the royal servants, it does not mean that he has great strength in battle.
Facing those royal servants who were truly specialized in combat, he probably wouldn't be able to defeat them even if he tried his best.
Forbearance!
Moreover, he has already identified the areas that need to be investigated.
First, he realized that what appeared in the group was probably the [Chaotic Demon].
In addition to investigating the "Chaos Demon," it is also necessary to find out the source of this chaos.
Great chaos cannot arise out of thin air.
He needs to know who was in the lead in the first place.
……
Amidst a vast expanse of white snow and swirling winds, the icebreaker moves steadily forward.
Just then, Marie opened her eyes slightly wider;
"Everyone, the wind direction has changed ahead..."
Oh no, the wind has gotten stronger!
Volume 3: Chapter 654, Page 140: This is what you call a surprise! (4k)
The wind on the ice sheet is not constant, but is constantly changing slightly, sometimes strong and sometimes weak.
However, drastic changes may occasionally occur.
This drastic change naturally brought with it an even more intense elemental wind.
"Buzzing—"
The buzzing sound of the wind crashing against the hull echoed throughout the room. Even with the protection of the magic array and the warriors, the entire "icebreaker" still made a lot of noise.
And everyone present could feel that the ship was tilting slightly.
It's unimaginable how fierce the hurricane outside was, that it actually tilted the entire protected ship.
Common sense dictates that larger buildings can utilize more materials, resulting in greater structural rigidity.
However, precisely because of its large size, it is also subject to an exponential increase in external influences!
The area exposed to wind for a person and a house are completely different.
Just like the strong winds hitting an icebreaker, the ship's hull will naturally bear greater pressure.
Unseen by the heroes, a seam on the hull suddenly froze in the fierce winds, frozen by the elements. ◇〖Four″∝Two∩
"Snapped!"
A piece of ice, no bigger than a pinky finger, broke off from the seam.
"Bang!!"
A large amount of elemental energy and magic rapidly invaded the collapsing opening, causing it to crumble inch by inch within seconds, revealing a crack the size of a palm.
The embankment of a thousand miles was destroyed by an ant's nest.
Within seconds, the palm-sized opening expanded outward at an alarming speed. The demonic fur that was originally used as the outer layer of the "icebreaker" was damaged in the slightest, and then began to disintegrate uncontrollably at high speed.
The White Sea Ark continued its journey, but the heroes were completely unaware that a piece of the hull had been torn off, revealing the inner layer pieced together from the bones of demons.
However, it is clear that these demon skeletons have a stronger defensive capability than fur.
Even when directly exposed to wind and snow, it showed no signs of damage in a short period of time.
Moreover, in order to prevent damage to the internal structure from the outer layer, the heroes tried their best to make the inner demon skeleton fit together perfectly during the assembly process.
Although they are demon bones, they have been carefully cut into the shapes needed for assembly.
Furthermore, the assembly process minimizes the use of metals, ropes, or adhesives commonly used in the human world.
Because these things will almost certainly be frozen into pieces by wind and snow on the permafrost.
Therefore, in assembling the demon bone materials, the heroes used a lot of the assembly structures that are used in woodworking to minimize the use of connecting materials.
Thus, on the temporarily stable inner layer, a crack appeared and the outer layer, which was frantically attacked by the wind and snow, disappeared into the snowstorm.
The heroes were completely unaware, or rather, it was unlikely that they would have noticed in the first place.
In the perception of the reconnaissance hero, the outside world is a blurry, obscuring magical storm.
Their perception abilities ultimately rely on magic and skills, but they can only barely use them on this frozen land because their level is not low.
If it were a low-level reconnaissance hero, they wouldn't even have the ability to use their senses to investigate the [White Sea].
Low-level warriors are not allowed to enter! Nor are they allowed to look!
However, even with the best efforts to ensure a tight seal, it was not completely airtight.
Unfortunately, the wind and snow were everywhere.
"Om-!"
Just then, one of the magic circles operating normally inside the ship suddenly lost its light!
The White Ark also suddenly slowed down, like a car that was running normally but one wheel suddenly stopped moving.
“It’s drafty, let’s go back the way we came,” An Yi said immediately.
He also trusted Irene's skill in creating magic circles, so any malfunction must be due to external factors.
"Senior brother is right! That part has been corroded by the wind!" As the Wind Warrior, Marie was the one who could best sense the abnormality brought by the wind, and shouted, pointing in the direction where the light had disappeared.
Soon, more and more areas lost their luster, and it was clear that the metal inside had begun to frost over, a sign that it was about to collapse.
Before long, a quarter of the ship's interior completely lost the light that allowed the magic to operate.
However, the other three-quarters of the area was almost unaffected.
In terms of design, the entire ship's magic array is a single unit when there are no damaged areas.
But once the ship's hull is damaged, the other normal areas will "cut" away the damaged area, and the cycle will be reassembled from the remaining normal magic arrays. Hmm.
In other words, by removing the bad parts, a new whole is formed. Lu
Furthermore, considering that four people would be supplying magic power simultaneously to balance their individual magic power consumption, the magic circle was also divided into four parts. Nine
Currently, only three parts are still operational, and their movement speed has slowed down considerably.
However, once erosion begins, it means...
……
Outside a small village used for shipbuilding, a group of heroes stared at the overturned hull of a ship, their emotions varying.
I already knew about the "White Sea Ark" incident in the chat group, but seeing the ship that had sailed out intact now reduced to a skeleton, it was natural to have mixed feelings.
Several of the test participants were also standing there, helping to provide all the information they had received since leaving the house.
This includes, but is not limited to, what you hear and see, or what you perceive.
Basically, that's it;
The boat was sailing perfectly fine, but suddenly it started to "leak."
The ship's interior is a structure that seals magic, so the heroes cannot encase the ship with a magic shield.
By the time it was time to wrap it up, all that was left was a pile of metal that had been frozen and rotten beyond recognition.
It's like trying to save a pig, but in the end, you only manage to save two pounds of pork belly; the pig is definitely not going to survive.
There was nothing else they could do but use their magic to support the ship's hull, made of demon bones, and brave the wind as they made their way back.
Meanwhile, Annie was also discussing the test with Irene.
After listening to the whole story, Irene nodded slightly: "The problem is obviously with the outer layer of fur that protects against the wind."
Ultimately, the hide of a dead demon is definitely not as good as the hide of a living demon.
"If you dry them properly, they're fine for making armor, but the frozen ground is so wet and cold that the demon hides have been soaked through and ruined."
The living, highly resilient demon race has high resistance and health points. As long as there is enough food, they can actually survive normally on the frozen ground.
However, the skin of this undead race needs to be considered from another perspective—
Durability.
There's no need to elaborate too much; it's similar to the "health points" of materials.
Just like when a living thing's life points reach zero, it dies.
When durability reaches zero, the material will also be damaged.
Leaving the fur of a demon into a space that continuously causes damage would normally result in its durability dropping to zero.
