Main Volume Chapter 60 Akito's temporary plan
Zhang Yun and Lucina were both sensible people, so they didn't delay too much.
After confirming that both parties were willing to form a united front and the general process of fighting against Ajid, the two began to discuss how to reach their first destination - the desert holy city.
According to Lucina's original plan, she wanted to take Robert's ship to Bantsona, then take an ocean-going ship directly to the East, and then fly to the territory of the Great Xia Dynasty on the Blue Feather Bird.
But now that Ajith had happened and the other party had vowed that there would be enemies in the next city , this plan obviously couldn't be implemented.
Therefore, they had to find a new route, preferably one that could avoid Ajid's hidden route.
If not, then as long as the road is remote enough and no ordinary people will be involved in the battle and accidentally injured, it can also be considered.
To this.
Zhang Yun just happened to have a solution.
That is to let Lily, who has no way to "return the money", summon Leviathan, and the two of them will ride this ton-sized behemoth by sea, directly bypassing the city where Akito might be ambushed.
If Ajid is stubborn enough and has the means to track down Lucina, and dares to ambush Zhang Yun and Lucina in the ocean, then the maritime human rights "Leviathan" can just teach them a lesson...
After bypassing the city far enough, Zhang Yun asked Leviathan and Lily to protect Lucina and hide in the relatively safe sea, while he himself took a flying follower to a nearby city.
After all, Zhang Yun was unfamiliar with this world, and he had not explored the game map enough. It was all dark. If he did not go to the city to find someone and check the map to confirm his location, he would definitely get lost at sea...
After planning everything, the three of them set out immediately, bypassing the army that was still clearing out the remaining monsters, and arrived at the port of Lolo Island adjacent to the ocean.
At this time, the once prosperous port became dilapidated, with debris flowing on the ground along with the remaining sea water. Most of the luxurious sailboats sank in the sea and were constantly hit by the waves, revealing a desolate atmosphere.
Looking at the almost completely destroyed sailboats, Zhang Yun touched his nose and asked , "Should we destroy all the remaining boats?"
Lucina looked at him in confusion, "Why?"
Zhang Yun said: "You also saw it. When the Ancient Evil God appeared, it summoned a huge wave. Although I stopped it, part of it still rushed to the shore."
"These ships must have been completely damaged after being hit by that force. Even if some of them are still usable, it would be difficult for them to sail in the dangerous sea. They must be renovated and cannot be used directly."
"After such a battle, the people on the island should be in a panic. I think most people would rest on the island for a few more days to ease the stress of escaping death, rather than going out to sea right away to face those dangerous storms and monsters at sea."
"If someone wants to leave here by boat at this time, there is a high probability that they have something to hide. For example, it is the remaining Ajid who intends to go to other cities to inform his companions and tell others about your situation here..."
“Let’s take a step back. Even if they are not Ajid’s people, but a group of ordinary people, they will definitely tell others what happened here. Then Ajid in other cities will know about the monster tide and get the information about you here…”
After hearing this, Lucina pondered for a moment and roughly understood what Zhang Yun meant.
In fact, it was to destroy all the remaining ships, delay the spread of the news of the monster tide, and make Akito in other cities react a step slower.
However, if the Ajid organization also has creatures like white carrier pigeons and uses them as a method of transmitting information, then it would be useless for Zhang Yun to destroy the ship or not, after all, the other party can fly away whenever they want.
It's just a gamble anyway.
The other party's method of information transmission is very old-fashioned, relying entirely on manpower to deliver messages. As long as they win the bet, Zhang Yun and his team can buy more safe time.
If you lose the bet...
Then the owners of these sailboats can take a short vacation to relieve the pressure brought by the monster tide, and repair the sailboats to avoid missing some minor problems that may cause accidents to the sailboats.
Zhang Yun didn't suffer any loss either. Maybe she could even shake off the enemy who was following her on the boat and gain some unexpected advantages...
After figuring it out, Lucina did not hesitate. She took out the holy sword and decisively cut off all the mainsails of those sailboats.
This level of damage will not completely destroy the ship and make it scrapped, but it will also allow the owner to spend three to four days repairing the ship.
It is just right...
After solving the problem with the boat, the two of them left the dock on the blue-feathered bird and its flying attendant, heading for the blue sea and facing the slowly rising sun.
After reaching a certain distance, Zhang Yun first confirmed that there was no one around and that Akito was not following him. Then he summoned Lily and let Lily activate her skills to call out Leviathan.
Suddenly, the calm sea surface suddenly became turbulent, and a huge black shadow slowly emerged from the bottom of the sea, finally breaking through the waves, revealing its huge head and a back covered with blue scales, like a long blue dragon, revealing its graceful body vaguely.
Lucina gasped, "What...is this?"
Zhang Yun said casually: "Leviathan is a sub-dragon creature. It has some dragon blood flowing in its body, so it looks a bit like a dragon, but also like a snake."
Lucina looked puzzled. "Are you sure? Judging from the part of it that's exposed above the sea, it's at least several dozen meters long. It's much bigger than a dragon!"
ha?
Dozens of meters?
Please use your imagination!
Be bold!
Leviathan's actual length is more than 100 meters...
No matter what he thought, Zhang Yun would definitely not say it directly, as that would make him seem too pretentious.
So he replied: "Of course, I am sure that another part of its bloodline comes from some kind of dominant creature in the deep sea, so its body is larger than an ordinary dragon."
"I don't know exactly what it is, but you just need to know that I can summon it at sea and use it for my own purposes, and I can guarantee that it won't harm us."
Lucina said in disbelief: "Okay..."
After a pause, Zhang Yun felt that this was not going to work, so he added a few more words and explained, "You should understand why I can summon this giant monster after reading the ancient book. This is the power of inheritance, and it is also the reason why I can defeat the ancient evil god."
"I know……"
"But this level of summoned creatures is powerful, but it is not easy to summon. Every time I summon it, it costs a certain price, so don't expect me to summon more monsters like this. I don't have that much ability..."
"At least not now. I don't know if there will be one in the future. After all, I don't know much about inheritance..."
"I know……"
"Okay, I understand. Let's get off first and ride it eastwards. We'll discuss the follow-up plan later."
"good……"
After that, the three of them landed on the broad back of Leviathan, rode this dragon like a long snake into the distance, and disappeared into the blue sea.
At the same time, near the port of Lolo Island, a man in a black robe suddenly appeared on the street. He looked in the direction where Lucina and Zhang Yun left, with a solemn look on his face.
Then, he took out a crystal ball, on which was reflected a colorful picture, which was the scene of the battle between Zhang Yun and Batya. A large group of angry sea sharks instantly bit Batya who was tied up by Leviathan to death. The whole process took only a few seconds.
“This man…”
"Who is that person?"
“To be able to summon such a terrifying creature, to beat Ajid-sama’s servants without any chance of fighting back, while he himself remained unscathed…”
"no!"
"This information is too important!"
"I must tell others what happened immediately!"
After thinking about it, the man in black robe put away the crystal, ran to the harbor where the sailboats were crowded, and then scanned the half-flooded and half-broken ships, looking for a sailboat that could still be used.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Yun had already guessed the possibility of the current situation and asked Lucina to cut the mainsails of all the sailboats, so the man in black could not find a single usable boat.
“Damn it!”
"Has Lucina thought of this already?"
The man in black robe frowned, thought for a moment, and finally decided to transform directly into a flying monster like the one that Ajid incarnated, and fly across the sea with his own wings.
He did this for two reasons.
First, the Akito follower was hurt by Zhang Yun, and then the mission was completed.
Because the "gate" was destroyed and the monster tide was interrupted, it was surrounded by the Baiyan City defense forces on Luoluo Island and the army that arrived, and eventually died on the battlefield.
It doesn't matter if this guy dies, he's just a follower anyway. As long as other humans have desires, Ajid can use these people to create more followers.
But the key is that it will turn back into a human after death, and it did not withdraw from the encirclement of the human army in the end. As a result, the human soldiers discovered this and knew that the purple magic wolf was a human...
If nothing unexpected happens, the soldiers on this island will immediately set up a blockade after clearing out the monsters, seal off the entire island, and investigate the identities of the humans on the island one by one.
Although they could not find out the identity of the black-robed man Ajid, blocking the island and not allowing anyone to enter or leave would definitely waste a lot of time, especially the black-robed man's time. This delayed the transmission of the information that Lucina and Zhang Yun had killed Batya, leaving Ajid in another city no time to organize an ambush.
Therefore, the man in black robes had to hurry and leave the island as soon as possible before the army imposed a blockade.
And the second point...
According to the original situation, Lucina would not be able to escape from this vortex with her strength which was slightly stronger than that of an ordinary professional.
Even though she had been hiding her strength, her actual combat capability was far beyond her imagination. She defeated the already-killed Ajith and managed to escape from the encirclement, but she was unable to cross the ocean relying on the Blue-Feathered Bird.
After all, the bird does not have that much physical strength to fly that far, so it must find land to rest in the middle of the journey, otherwise it will definitely fall into the sea and drown.
Therefore, no matter how she moves, she must wait for a ship to go out to sea, and the man in black can take the opportunity to follow her all the way. When she arrives at the next city, he can immediately notify his companions, summon a new wave of monsters, and then take the opportunity to capture her.
It doesn’t matter if the man in black robes can’t keep up. As long as Lucina’s ship arrives at the new city, the people along the way will tell others about the monster tide that occurred on Lolo Island.
At that time, Ajid who is guarding that city will be the first to know the news, and then activate the secret method to locate Princess Lucina, and then summon a new round of monsters.
Therefore, the deceased Ajith was not wrong. The main purpose of summoning the monster tide was to locate Lucina, so that the companions in the surrounding cities could extract information from this gossip and know that Lucina had come to their city...
Of course, another obvious use of the monster tide is to create chaos, making it easier for Ajid and others to transform into monsters and capture Lucina.
If they hadn't summoned the monster tide and turned into monsters directly, they would probably have been surrounded and destroyed by the city's garrison before they could even touch Lucina.
but now……
Lucina did not leave by boat. Instead, with the help of Zhang Yun, she rode the blue dragon that could compete with Batya across the sea and headed straight for her destination.
Well, judging from the consequences of the army's blockade of the island, the intelligence of this monster tide would definitely not be able to reach the next city in advance, and there would be no way to send it away with Lucina, so the other Agitos would be ready immediately to "welcome" Lucina's arrival.
Therefore, if the man in black robe did not catch up with Lucina and Zhang Yun immediately, he would most likely lose track of the two people, and the operation to capture Lucina would fail.
This is why he came directly to find a boat. After all, the speed of a sailboat is not slow and it does not need to rest.
The man in black also has the means to drive the sailboat alone and let it follow Zhang Yun and Lucina until they reach the next city.
But now the ship is destroyed, and the man in black cannot move on the ship. He must rely on the wings he has after turning into a monster to fly directly across the ocean, so that he has a chance to catch up Zhang Yun and Lucina who are riding the Leviathan.
In fact, due to physical limitations, it was impossible for it to catch up. At most, it could barely keep up with Zhang Yun, and the distance would continue to widen, and it would be left far behind.
But he was able to use secret techniques to locate Lucina's direction and obtain her approximate location so as not to completely lose track of her.
Then, as long as they reach the first city in Lucina's direction, the man in black robe can report the matter to his companions in that city and ask them to inform all Ajids of Zhang Yun's information.
Then, the black-robed man and a part of the Ajid took a boat, relying on the approximate positioning of the secret technique, plus the high speed of the speedboat and the fact that it did not need to rest, they kept hanging behind Lucina and kept tracking her.
In this case, it doesn't matter whether Lucina wants to go to the East, to the holy city of the Divine Life Order, or to other unrelated countries.
Ajid can always control her position until he captures her and brings her back to the capital...
This was what the man in black robe had in mind, and it was also the temporary plan he made in an instant after the failed arrest operation.
A plan that can help the Ajid Organization regain face.
