Gou is a dark elf in Warhammer

"Morslieb touched the sun, and the whole world was instantly plunged into darkness. Huge waves hit our ship, and just as the eclipse was completely obscured, a huge column of steam suddenly blew out of the sea, followed by jagged, sharp stone pillars.

The crew thought a sea dragon was coming to devour us, but it wasn't a dragon that rose out of the sea, but land. We landed on the quivering black stone island, and I led a small group to explore the island. We carefully traversed the slippery rocks and dying fish, and found the wreck of a sunken Imperial ship, its hold filled with glittering Lustrian gold.

As we returned to the ship to gather more men for the portage, I saw a sight I will never forget. Even if I drank myself blind, the image would remain seared into my eyes. A gigantic crab monster, larger than an Imperial warship, was devouring my crew. Before my eyes, it tore through the mast with one claw and crushed the mighty Sven with the other. I won't lie to you, we ran like frightened children.

If you want to hear me continue telling you about the temple we found on that island and how I escaped, fill this cup again. I can still see a little bit, and I see that this cup is empty. ” -Brand Olafsson, the captain of the Norse sea.

Many things have their own explanations and rules. For example, how did the team that stayed at the dock reach the integrated area and the Mask Palace? We couldn't let the Asurs who were unfamiliar with the place walk in front. What would the Duruchis who didn't know the situation see?

Fortunately, the Dacus brothers had made a plan beforehand. Maranul led Duruchi in the front to lead the way, while Dacus walked in the middle, with Kaia beside him, and now Marin and Aedanna were added. Asrai and Ainir were on both sides, and finally the Asur delegation and the sea guards.

The team advanced towards the Mask Palace in a diamond shape, but stopped not far away. It felt like passing through a railway crossing, the train was coming, the clang clang sounded continuously, and then the gate was lowered, and the team had to stop and wait for the train to pass.

Maranul stopped and smiled, waved to Kallion who appeared, and Kallion also waved to the team, and then nothing happened, Kallion left in a flash and disappeared around the corner.

The reason why Kalyon left quickly was because he was on the back of Promethean, a life-giving creature. Promethean is a decapod crab with strong regenerative ability. The reason for this is that crabs belong to the Brachyura order of the decapod, while hermit crabs belong to the Heterocura order of the decapod.

In terms of appearance, crabs usually have a hard shell covering their entire body, and 5 pairs of legs, one pair of which are large pincer-like chelicerae, and the rest of the legs are used for walking. Hermit crabs do not have their own hard shells, but live in snail shells, and also have 5 pairs of legs, but the first pair are pincer-like chelicerae, the left chelicerae are larger than the right, and the rest of the legs are used for walking and moving.

This is the appearance, but it's like talking about toxicity without considering the dosage...

As soon as the newly arrived envoys from Ainir and Asur stopped, they were stunned by the huge monster in front of them, or more accurately, by the scene in front of them. First, there was an unusual vibration in the distance that could not be seen, followed by a dull gurgling sound, and a huge devil crab was moving quickly.

The devil crab is nearly ten meters long, with dark green algae and various shells clinging to its thick carapace. Its carapace is shimmering, as hard and cold as steel, exuding a chilling power. No sharp sword can leave a scratch on it, as if it is a living reef crawling out from the depths of the seabed. Its powerful scissors that can dismember humans can tear apart masts, sails and superstructures.
Strangely, it was wrapped with thick ropes, and several ropes were tied firmly to its huge shell, connecting it to square marble blocks. A series of heavy stones were dragged and moved quickly along the tracks laid on the street, and the low roar of the rolling stones echoed for a long time in the street.

Its pair of pillar-like eyestalks stood upright, and its sharp eyes stayed for a moment in the direction of the delegation as it passed by. Perhaps it saw the little bean sprout on its back waving to the little bean sprout in the distance, or perhaps it saw the unique little bean sprout in the crowd. While moving quickly, it stretched out its front pincer-like claws and waved them.

The elves who had just arrived held their breath and stood still, no one dared to make a sound. Every step of the crab made the earth tremble, and every step made a heavy creaking sound on the street. Seaweed slid off the shell, just like a train whizzing past them.

"This?" Kaia asked hesitantly as he watched the scene.

"Don't you have that?" Daxus asked, spreading his hands casually.

"Yes, but..." Kaia responded hesitantly. There are all kinds of things in the Claw Sea, and occasionally there are magic crabs appearing on the coast. Her attention is not on the magic crabs, but on how to use them.

Marlene and Adianna looked at each other, worry flashing in their eyes.

Just like a train, it came quickly and left quickly. The reason why it was called a train was because there was more than one magic crab. Kallion controlled the locomotive like a train driver, and there were magic crab carriages behind it, which consisted of three giant crabs and two hermit crabs. Of course, each of these magic crabs had a trainer on its back, a trainer drawn from each black ark.

The Asur who were walking behind the team began to discuss in low voices. They came from the kingdoms in the outer ring of Ulthuan, and as followers of Matheran, they had dealt with sea beasts many times.

Especially the believers from the Kingdom of Cosqui. The harsh environment makes them more superstitious than other Asur. They believe in Matheran and usually wear blue clothes. The colors of the ocean and the images of marine animals are used in their emblems. The emblem of Matheran and Matheran's monstrous Son of the Abyss are decorated as shield patterns.

Although they believe in Maserlan and regard the monsters in the sea as the sons of the abyss, in reality, there is nothing like: Hey, big brother, local, one of us, don't shoot. Putting aside religion, in real life, they are hostile to sea monsters and have a food chain relationship with them. Sea monsters are on their menu, and they are also on their menu.

The waters north of Ulthuan are filled with sea beasts, so it is very dangerous to go out to sea, hunt, or fish in the waters of Cosqui. When hunting or fishing along the coast, one must always be alert to danger. In order to survive in these waters, Cosqui sailors must become very skilled, or they will die, along with their ship and people. Those who survive will eventually become the best sailors in the world.

As expected, they had dealt with the devil crabs before, so they naturally knew their fighting power. What worried them was that Duruchi's hand seemed to have extended from the land to the sea, becoming the target they would have to deal with in the future.

"These lovely guys responded to the call of the daughter of the sea." After hearing the discussion, Dacus, who had the final say, explained. The Duruchi and the Lizardmen living in Chapeiuto were vague, but also clearly defined, especially when using the local giant beasts of Lustria, there were strict standards. The giant beasts could help plow the land, help pull boulders, and even participate in battles.

But building the temple area and asking the lizardmen for help was a different matter. With the shortage of steam train production and fuel, Serene thought of some other ways. She sang on the beach, and then a group of cute little girls who wanted to live a carefree life appeared on the coast, responding to Serene's call. The group that just passed by was the one Serene called up. In addition, some diehards caught by the coalition on the beach were detained in the temple area, waiting for further training.

There is a Chaos Cult in the Old World that worships the Magic Crabs, but the Magic Crabs are essentially just powerful and destructive animals, like sea beasts such as the Long-tailed War Shark, the Giant Tortoise, the Sharp-toothed Eel and the Deep Sea Steed. Like the Snake Man, they are not Chaos-type.

In private, Daxus asked Serene some questions, but Serene told him clearly that no, the essence of summoning is to use very unique magic specifically for magic crabs, and then communicate and reach a deal, rather than connecting with sea beasts through Maseran.

In fact, the believers from Cosqui are right to regard the sea beasts as the sons of the abyss. Matheran can indeed establish a connection with the sea beasts, but the power is not enough now. The essence is to radiate the ocean of this planet. When it comes to this step, it is not as simple as creating a local storm. Now, on the one hand, there are not enough believers and incense, and on the other hand, Mannan next door is standing there. The field is so small that we have to fight for it.

But now it is enough for Dacus. Connection is not important. Anes Lema can't connect to those various beasts. This does not prevent the trainer from taming them. The trainer can train the land beasts, and the trainer can train the sea beasts. Just accumulate them slowly.

Perhaps when the power of Maserlan rises, the elves will have evolved and sea beasts will no longer be needed. Instead, they will be replaced by flying machines. Anyway, there is no need for underwater combat. At most, they can maintain the spiritual vein nodes on the seabed. After the evolution, the behemoths will also become steel. At that time, chariot drivers and others will believe in Anes Lema. Steel behemoths are also behemoths, nothing wrong with that.

Moreover, it is still unclear whether the battle on the sea can be fought later. However, we still have to make preparations for both situations. We should build ships, train, reform, and tame the troops. Otherwise, the army will be ready but the navy will be helpless.

The magic crab is very special. The cancer crab belongs to the Brachyura order of the decapoda order, but it does not walk sideways. Its body structure is a bit similar to that of the short-fingered monk crab, that is, the soldier crab, the sea monk, the sea pearl, etc. When it walks, it moves forward. When its huge body moves forward, it is like a bulldozer or a locomotive. The hermit crabs belonging to the Heterorhinus order of the decapoda order also walk forward.

In addition to being used as a locomotive, the straight-walking magic crab also has high practical value. Unlike other sea beasts, the magic crab cannot fly even within the range of a land vehicle. But it doesn't matter. It doesn't need to fly. It only needs to fight in an aquatic environment.

To be more specific, you can refer to Cosqui's silver-helmeted knights. The knights can ride on horses to fight on the deck. When landing, they can ride down from the ship to conduct landing operations and launch a devastating charge.

To be more specific, you can use the magic crab as an amphibious tank. You can jump off the boat, splash down the waves, and then start swimming across the sea to grab the beach. Or when the boat hits the shore, you can jump off the boat and start fighting directly on the beach.

The claw-like claws are equipped with protective steel plates to protect the eyes and face at long distances. When close combat begins, just swing it and reap mercilessly. The crossbow can also be mounted on the back of the magic crab to shoot from behind the bunker, and more than one can be deployed. How big is the crossbow? The diameter of the magic crab's shell is about ten meters. In addition to the crossbow, some crossbowmen can be deployed on it, just like the combat platform on the back of the Lustria monster. In addition, the large crossbow that is being developed can also be deployed on the back and designed as a rotatable turret.

The real large-scale amphibious tanks acted as fulcrums and firepower points on the beach to cover the landing of follow-up troops and then launch an attack along the beach. In addition, the flying troops within the range of the land vehicles cooperated, and the all-round and three-dimensional attack was unstoppable. At that time, the Druki Navy could go wherever it wanted and land wherever it wanted.

Full reference to the Vampire Pirate series.

Beneath the world's waves dwell many strange and dangerous creatures. From fire-breathing sea dragons to the kraken that wreaks havoc in the Great Ocean, the sea's bounty is as rich and varied as life on land. However, once dead, even the most belligerent creatures become playthings for the sea's necromancers.

The fleet of Whitehair Harken often goes out to sea to hunt Magic Crabs, then resurrects them and brings them into their team. Either as mounts or as their own monster soldiers, the Corrupted Magic Crabs, Corrupted Magic Crab Shooters and Corrupted Leviathans are typical representatives. They are rough and powerful, but the premise is that the Undead Wizard who is the overall controller cannot die.

This is also the reason why the Corrupted Magic Crabs failed to exert their combat effectiveness when Haken was destroyed. Duruchi and the Lizardman Alliance directly destroyed the main control on land.

Before amphibious tanks can be manufactured in factories, magic crabs have incomparable value for a long time. Unless the storm steering wheel or water pattern stone is installed on the bottom of the steel, the whole magic amphibious tank will come out, but this is too extravagant, and Coptiti will definitely jump up.

The word Leviathan refers to various giant marine creatures, and the Corrupted Leviathan is a giant lobster... They are deep-sea creatures that rarely surface. Their shells are harder than hardened steel. Arrows and small arms fire are meaningless to them. Their pincers can easily cut a fully armed Bretonnian lord and armored warhorse in half.

Although there are two large lobsters in the temple area, they were not summoned, but were caught by the coalition forces while hunting on the beach. They behaved very violently, and it was just an overthinking to pull goods. In Kallion's words, this kind of lobster has no brain and cannot be controlled. Its thoughts are too strange, a bit like the difference between a pterosaur and a beaked dragon. Of course, you can also use force, you can control it, you can force it, after all, this is the specialty of the Druki trainers.

But Dacus gave up. In his opinion, obedient magic crabs were enough. Landing operations only accounted for a small proportion, so there was no need for so many giant beasts. If the lobsters went crazy on the beach, the troops in front, behind, and on the left would have nowhere to run. The troops who could carry out landing operations were elite troops. If they did not die at the hands of the enemy but were killed by lobsters, it would be difficult to write a death report.

"It's still a long time until the next time, long enough for us to cross this street."

Just as Dacus said, when the team reached the intersection, he could see Duruchi and the lizardmen appearing at the intersection in the distance and crossing the street. (End of this chapter)
