Chapter 20: Runes? Magic?
【Lu Guidance】

"The sea was dark and the storm was raging."

"On the way back, she encountered the Red Mane Party besieging a merchant ship."

"They are a group of sea-green monsters with snake-like beaks and tails, bright red fins, and obsidian harpoons in their hands."

"They emerged from the sea, climbed up the masts, and impaled the sailors on the deck."

"She has heard that these sea monsters are Vastaya hunters from the bottom of the sea. If a caravan encounters them, they will surely die."

"She, who believes in justice, will not stand idly by when she sees her fellow humans being slaughtered."

"Draw your spear immediately and step forward."

"And on this trapped merchant ship, right now, two wizards, one older and one younger, are using magic to resist the sea monster's attack."

Spears and harpoons swung and collided, creating fierce sparks in the air.

The red-maned sea monster in front of him was skinny and tall.

The collar ribbon around his neck was strung with white bones, and the sharp scales on his back were like ancient armor with dozens of rusty hooks and metal rings attached to them.

Seeing Kalista charging towards it, it bared its sharp fangs and its pale eyes were full of ferocity.

"Human, die!"

A foul odor of salt water and rotten flesh hit me in the face, followed by the sound of a harpoon breaking through the wind.

Kalista remained calm, her figure moving like a sharp sword. When she was still three or five meters away from it, she suddenly threw out the spear that had been charging for a long time.

The spear shot out with such speed and force that it looked like lightning tearing through the night sky. The cold murderous intent contained in it was terrifying.

clang! !

Between the lightning and flint.

The sound of iron clashing was deafening.

The red-maned sea monster held the harpoon across its chest with fear in its eyes, barely blocking the attack. However, it was knocked back several meters by the huge force from the spear.

In that brief moment, Kalista took the opportunity to leap forward and roll, pulling out the dagger that was flashing with cold light from her waist and stabbing it fiercely into its calf.

The red-maned sea monster howled in pain as the pain penetrated deep into its bones. Its face was extremely distorted as it struggled to pull the dagger out of its leg.

good chance!
Seeing this scene, murderous intent appeared in Kalista's eyes. She flashed and nimbly picked up the spear on the deck.

When the sea monster pulled out its dagger and stood up in panic, she became focused and cold, with her icy eyes aimed at its throat.

The spear pierced the rainbow, like light and lightning.

One stab to the throat!
laugh--

After a muffled sound.

Thick green blood gushed out, and the eyes of the red-maned sea monster were filled with incredible fear. It didn't have time to let out a final roar, and it fell backwards with its eyes wide open.

Kalista took a few steps forward and pulled the spear out of its neck. However, before she could breathe a sigh of relief, an anxious shout suddenly came from behind her.

"My lord, be careful!!"

This shout was like thunder exploding in Kalista's ears. Her heart suddenly tightened and a strong sense of oppression came from behind her.

She turned around instinctively.

Another red-maned sea monster flew into the air with a harpoon in his hand and stabbed her in the face.

So close!!
The tip of the harpoon flashed with a cold light, as if it was going to pierce her. She could even feel the sea monster's heavy breathing.

There was no time to defend herself. Kalista's pupils shrank sharply and her heart seemed to stop beating. She could only watch the harpoon piercing her face.

At this critical moment.

A purple bomb suddenly fell from the sky, like a thunderbolt, smashing into the sea monster, knocking it out and landing heavily on the deck. Kalista gasped for air and turned her head in panic to see a young man kneeling on the ground, covering his arm.

His expression was painful, sweat dripped from his forehead, and mysterious purple runes were surging on his palms and forearms. The runes were like flowing electric currents, flashing dangerous light.

As his pain intensified, the runes glowed like burning flames, spreading across his arms.

Whenever his hands touched the deck, the planks would turn black, smoke would rise, and then burst into purple flames.

At this time, an elder in a robe appeared behind the young man and scolded the young man in a language that Kalista could not understand.

The elder did not carry any weapons, but his aura was extremely strong. He wore a magic amulet around his neck, which was flashing a dazzling light.

He slowly stretched out his palm, and a bright light gradually gathered in his palm.

Feeling the warmth of the light, the young man's expression finally changed from pain to peace.

It was not until the palm was placed on his back that the purple runes that were spreading wildly on his arm gradually faded away, and the purple flames disappeared with them.

at this time.

A majestic and ferocious red-maned sea monster crawled up from under the boat. It stared with a pair of bloodshot eyes and angrily stabbed the elder's back with a sharp harpoon.

Kalista was startled and wanted to shout out to warn.

However, before she could shout out.

A dazzling halo suddenly burst out from the elder's body, as if he was covered with a sacred shield.

The red-maned sea monster and the harpoon turned into ashes and disappeared the moment they came into contact with the halo.

See here.

Both the audience at the scene and the audience in the live broadcast room blushed.

In the plot just now, they felt worried about Kalista's difficulties and desperate situations, but they also felt comfortable and happy that she could survive every time.

In their view.

The story of Callista setting out to sea in search of the Blessed Islands is far more exciting than that in Kamavia.

Along the way, there are constant crises and turning points.

The plot is full of ups and downs, and their moods also go up and down like a roller coaster.

The feeling is indescribable.

Anyway, for them, it was indeed a refreshing experience.

"Okay, okay, I found that these plots are my favorite!"

"Who said fighting and killing is boring? Look, it's much more interesting than love."

"That's because Su Dada is very talented. When others write about infatuation, they only write about love between men and women, but he can even extend it into an adventure story. It's really awesome, Klas!"

"It's getting more and more exciting. There are even sea monsters and magic!"

"Actually, sea monsters and magic aren't new, but this is the first time I've heard of runes. Can anyone who knows fantasy explain it to me?"

"I can't explain it, because I haven't heard it either."

"Good luck! Is the mage so awesome? It feels like killing monsters is just like playing."

"I think Sister Ka's chance is coming. Although she is very strong, wouldn't she be even stronger if she learns magic?"

"Oh my god, I found that Su Dada's worldview is full of new and interesting things. I have to look forward to it!"

"Fuck! Why did you write this at the last minute and then make me wait until tomorrow to read it? No! I feel like there are ants crawling in my heart."

"Don't be impatient, it's not finished yet. Don't you see that Su Dada is still writing?"
