Chapter 729: 232. Thunderous Battle of Hearts_3
However, due to the conductivity of seawater, the lightning energy ball would spread like a net in all directions within a second of its formation, causing severe energy dissipation.
Noland Lee developed a unique alchemy bomb for this particular situation.
Its appearance and size were similar to a hand grenade, with an alchemy array inside storing lightning energy.
When used in conjunction with a triggering array, the alchemy bomb could be detonated, releasing a large amount of thunder and lightning energy, forming an overwhelming explosion wave and lightning pulses.
Noland Lee named this alchemy bomb “Experimental Type I Thunder Grenade,” abbreviated as Thunder Grenade.
Due to the limited time available for design and refining, this type of Thunder Grenade could not do directed blasting and did not have sharp metal shrapnel to enhance its lethality.
However, it was enough for the task at hand.
Noland Lee did not want to rely on Thunder Grenades to kill the Sea Serpent Leader, but merely to use its power to disrupt the enemy.
If the Thunder Grenade could intensify the backlash effect of the “Mysterious Prism,” it would be even better.
Considering the Sea Serpent Leader’s high resistance, Noland Lee decided to prepare a little gift for it.
While maintaining “Psychic Bombardment,” he quickly manipulated objects with both hands.
He held the blue ring-shaped Elemental Energy Reactor with his left hand and picked up an awaiting Thunder Grenade with his right hand.
The materials used for these two items were of exceptional quality; the former was an energy entity that did not have a physical existence and was immune to water pressure.
The latter was crafted by Noland Lee using high-performance alchemical alloy, small and stable in structure, able to withstand water pressure within a thousand meters deep.
Noland Lee inserted the Thunder Grenade into the center of the Elemental Energy Reactor ring, carefully guiding the lightning energy to leave the ring and enter the Thunder Grenade.
During this process, a slight energy dissipation occurred inevitably.
About 30% of the lightning energy escaped following the water and did not enter the Thunder Grenade.
This level of energy dissipation was still within Noland Lee’s acceptable range.
He adjusted the shield energy efficiency of the “Magic Shield,” activated the “Undead Shield,” and used Undead Runes to enhance the shield’s lightning damage resistance.
In this way, the dissipated lightning energy could no longer harm him, and Noland Lee avoided being shocked half to death by his lightning energy.
After 10 minutes of continuous operation, three of the five existing Elemental Energy Reactors had their construct values reduced to 1 point, on the verge of collapse.
With limited time, Noland Lee stopped pouring lightning energy into the Thunder Grenades and did not use the remaining two Elemental Energy Reactors.
Thirteen Thunder Grenades, filled with lightning energy, lined up in front of Noland Lee, flashing a captivating blue light.
The most challenging part was the transportation issue that came next.
Noland Lee took out all the underwater Mechanisms from Blood Haven, connected them to the Thunder Grenades with durable alchemy threads, and formed an underwater formation.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
After completing this step, he controlled the formation and swam towards the faraway cave entrance.
With the mental beacons he set up along the way as guidance, Noland Lee did not have to worry about getting lost, but only prayed that these alchemy items full of hope would not encounter too many undercurrents.
He held his breath, kept his heart calm, and concentrated on directing the underwater formation.
The degree of deconstruction of the Deep-Sea Black-scaled Sea Serpent Leader in Noland Lee’s mind had reached 100% with the help of “Psychic Bombardment” and Passive Deconstruction.
Large amounts of deconstruction results refreshed in his mind.
Noland Lee had no time to check it for now.
He placed the system interface at the corner of his vision and left only the Sea Serpent Leader’s “status bar.”
Seeing the countdown of the “Strange Object Backlash” about to drop below 60 seconds, Noland Lee’s underwater formation finally reached the vicinity of the Sea Serpent Leader’s nest with great difficulty.
On the way here, the underwater formation had been surprisingly lucky, avoiding any irritating undercurrents.
However, just as it was about to enter the nest, the most fierce undercurrent so far burst out from the cave entrance, scattering the underwater formation!
Noland Lee tried to control the underwater formation to stabilize, glanced at the scene inside the cave, and became furious!
“I get it now! Damn it, the undercurrent was deliberately created by the Sea Serpent Leader! There’s a dark opening beneath its body! That’s the source of the undercurrent! As long as the Sea Serpent Leader lifts its bottom slightly and shifts a little, the undercurrent will spray out from the opening beneath it and fill the tunnel outside the nest!”
Noland Lee suppressed his anger, but his control over the underwater formation remained unrelenting.
Previous undercurrents lasted for about half a minute, and this time, nearly 40 seconds had passed, and there was still no sign of slowing down.
The opening beneath the Sea Serpent Leader was like a water outlet, continuously releasing turbulent currents, pushing the underwater formation tightly against the wall outsidethe nest.
The lightning energy concentration in the Thunder Grenades could be seen by the naked eye with the dazzling flashes, and the Sea Serpent Leader naturally detected the threat of these objects.
It used the undercurrent to block the Thunder Grenades outside the nest as a form of self-defense.
Seeing the countdown for the “Strange Object Backlash” about to reach zero, Noland Lee hardened his heart and issued a detonation command to the Thunder Grenades using “Mind Control!”
“Boom!”
“Rumble rumble rumble rumble rumble..”
First, a deafening explosion sounded from the Magic Vision, followed by the roaring explosion that stirred the seawater in the tunnel.
Violent lightning energy transformed into several thick lightning serpents frantically rampaging within the narrow tunnel, instantly illuminating the nest where the Sea Serpent Leader was.
