Deep Sea Hunter, but Deep Sea Titan

Loting did indeed share this intention, so he nodded slightly, which was the main reason he brought up the topic. Many things are difficult to understand deeply without firsthand experience, such as the anthropomorphism of Victoria and the current Deep Pool.

"I am but a ghost that has crawled out of the abyss. I collect gold coins and keep people safe."

Outcast could sense the Avenger's unique hatred emanating from this bronze giant—intense, but not insane, even guided by reason.

The other party's actions were not for upholding justice, but simply to fulfill some kind of contract and vent their hatred for the betrayer. For Outcast, knowing this was enough.

Outcast did not refuse, but instead told a short story to the Iberian who could be considered a temporary ally.

Although Lotin did not consider himself a true Iberian.

At that time, she was sent as a messenger of the Papacy to mediate a war, but the people of the city refused to surrender. Helpless, she left the city, and the next day, after the city was captured, no one in the city survived.

"I believe that a significant number of them, even as they were dying, thought I would still protect them. But I didn't."

"In the end, I was on the side of the massacre. I was the one who pretended to bring them hope, but with malicious intent."

"Perhaps I should shoot that war criminal who could order the massacre of a city, but who can know the outcome before I pull the trigger?"

She first blamed herself, and only then did she question the Vatican.

From then on, she resigned from her position at the Papacy and left Lateran.

"Thank you for being willing to share these topics with a stranger."

Lotin got her answer. The old woman was a true heroine who had given up the comfort of living in the grand vision woven by Lateran and chose to live in seclusion, solely to seek justice in a place where Lateran had not provided refuge.

"I have always believed that Iberians have the right to know the truth."

Lateran's inaction during the Great Silence led to a break between the state church and the Lateran papacy. This shameful betrayal is an indelible stain on Lateran. Outcast always believed that concealment and whitewashing could not solve the problem, so she subtly explained the truth to this "Iberian" who was seeking the truth.

The bronze giant is charging forward, with Titan's Wrath helping him absorb damage. Providing cover for the marksman to deal damage is one of the core functions of the Deep Sea Titan in League of Legends.

Outcast's explosive firepower can quickly deal with long-range cover fire points that are difficult for Lottin to reach even with Lottin's [Clear the Channel] skill. While Lottin can withstand a burst of heavy firepower, continuous heavy firepower from the army level can indeed damage a level 4 Lottin, especially in the current situation where continuous combat is required.

Therefore, it's best to keep your blood volume healthy as much as possible. Luo Ting doesn't have masochistic tendencies, and just because the scraping doesn't hurt much doesn't mean there's nothing wrong and you have to keep getting hit. After all, scraping for too long can also cause harm.

After upgrading the [Mount Targon Round Shield] to [Mountain Barrier], Lotin spent the gold he earned to buy the [Crystal Bracers], which not only increased his health regeneration speed but also gave him an additional 300 health points.

Lothing, at level 4, has around 1600 health points, which is already considered quite tanky. However, since Lothing doesn't have any resistance items, his resistances are still average.

As the [Undercurrents] washed away the wounded garrison and deep pool forces, the Giant Anchor began to damage the city's defensive cannons. [Titan's Wrath] infused the Giant Anchor with destructive energy, causing the internal wiring of the city's defensive cannons to burn out due to overload. Although there was no human [Shipbreaker] bonus from the top-notch electrician Skadi, Lotin's destructive speed was still not too slow.

There are only 600 gold coins in total, which is equivalent to the level of the second tower in the bottom lane.

Deeppool's ultimate goal was not to occupy Little Qiu County; they could not hold such a small, mobile city from the dukes' fleet.

They just wanted an opportunity to portray the Victorian army as a tyrannical force. Even if the garrison didn't fire the Originium dirty bombs, Deeppool would take over the city's defensive cannons and do it himself.

If Victoria isn't ruthless enough, they'll take this step themselves, and then pretend to be a benevolent army, bestowing small favors upon the Tara civilians whom they see as expendable.

All of this was part of Ahmoni's strategy. Mandra, like this little Qiu County, was a complete pawn from the very beginning. All she and her elite troops did was hold the broadcast tower and spread evidence of the Victorian army's crimes, while the real main force of Deep Pool was already retreating in a planned manner.

Unfortunately, unlike in the original storyline, Deeppool leader Abrahina did not appear in Little Qiu County. Lotin judged that it was most likely because he stopped the city's defensive cannons from firing dirty bombs, which prevented her sister Raphsini from becoming infected.

She remains a shadow dancer of Abraham, but the sisters are not truly like-minded; the rift has always existed, just waiting for another opportunity to trigger it.

However, Loting's goal was to destroy all the city's defensive cannons, so Deeppool had to play the villain more often.

Their plans were completely disrupted, and their patience had reached its breaking point.

It was midnight, and the sky was overcast, obscuring the moonlight.

Raindrops fell to the ground; a heavy downpour had begun in Xiaoqiu County.

“Iberian, you go ahead, I still have things to do here.”

Lotin did intend to head to the next defensive cannon to meet up with Laurentina, but he stared at the muddy, nameless alleyway, observing the last guard's line of sight.

They've arrived. Another target of Lotin's original plan has arrived: six war criminals who are not entirely mentally sound and are in charge of the tactical command of the current operation at Deep Pool.

"Find the evil..."

The rain refreshed Loting instantly, increasing his life and mana recovery rates.

"Sakortas? Iberians?"

A masked officer from the deep pool appeared at the other end of the alley; his voice was specially trained, suggesting he was an eloquent speaker.

"No matter what your employer promised you—wealth, status—we can raise the price."

“Brass Ghost, if you want offerings, the Deep Pool can prepare plenty.”

Unfortunately, Loting didn't want to give them the chance to insert coins—the system wouldn't classify these people as "victims" at all. Even if the system reluctantly made a judgment, Loting himself wouldn't identify them as "victims," ​​especially these greedy war criminals.

He will drag those greedy people into the end times.

"If justice will prevail, what need is there for my gun?"

Six bullets were loaded into Outcast's revolver; she knew very well what firing six bullets in quick succession meant to the Sarkaz.

"So, you're determined to stop us?"

"I am so sorry, madam, I am really so sorry."

"Let's go together."

Then, five more figures emerged from the darkness.

"Old man, list their crimes, I'll take care of it."

He would take them and himself with him into the waves—a stark reminder that no one can escape the wrath of the deep sea.

Chapter 6: Six Kills

Lotin began to collect some tithes sporadically. It seemed that some desperate Tara people had already tossed out coins, and their requests were all very similar; some of them simply wanted to survive.

Most Tara people are very poor, so that Victoria gold coin represents their hard-earned savings over many years.

But that's enough; it's sufficient for Loting to complete this extra service.

“You, ‘robber,’ you are a complete plunderer, eager to take everything from others—not just money.”

"What you really want to take away is their dignity; your desires will drive you to ravage a country."

The masked man wielding a sharp axe, known as "the bandit," is hacking at Lodin with the axe, which has been activated with Originium Arts.

“‘Orator,’ you revel in your art of rhetoric and are eager to use it as a political weapon to incite open and covert struggles. A greater war will break out because of you.”

The masked man who had just promised Luo Ting a generous tribute wanted to bypass him and run to the other side of the nameless alley.

“You, ‘prisoner,’ you escape from prison time and time again only to commit more serious crimes, thereby returning to prison and completing the next cycle.”

The masked man brandished a short knife, swiftly scaling walls and rooftops, and launched a surprise attack on Loting from an even more cunning angle.

“You, ‘arsonist,’ you have long been unable to be satisfied with destroying just one house or one family—soon, even destroying a city will not be able to fill the emptiness in your heart.”

The masked man wielding Originium Arts brews a deadly flame.

"You, 'Poison Scholar,' you call yourself a scholar, but this title cannot conceal your true nature of being immersed in cruel torture and repeated conspiracies. Your next betrayal will cause the death of several cities."

Even without the Deep Sea Titan template, the well-sealed diving suit could effectively isolate the toxins, which is why the masked man who was concocting the poison was in a state of panic.

“You, ‘accountant,’ have meticulously calculated the potential profits from this war. You are trying to turn more lives into numbers on the books and extract huge sums of money from them.”

The masked man known as "Accountant," like the orator, is not particularly strong in combat. Moreover, this cunning "Accountant" is already planning to betray his companions and use their bloody battle to buy time so that he can escape.

"No one can escape; sins must be repaid."

"One-tenth has been paid; we will not rest until we die!"

Brass hatches surrounded Lottin, and as the axe collided with the hatch, the passive effect of the Staff of Time was triggered, and Lottin's mana began to recover.

The giant anchor swung upwards, knocking away the "bandit" wielding a sharp axe. He used his strength-absorbing technique; his physical attributes were the strongest among them, and his protective gear was the thickest. Therefore, this attack did not kill his opponent, but it did temporarily halt his movements. The passive skill and the magic damage from his W skill also penetrated the expensive protective gear, causing serious damage to his internal organs.

They did not die immediately, but they were essentially rendered incapable of fighting.

Then, an iron chain flew towards the "Pyromancer" who was using Originium Arts. His Originium Arts were quite powerful, and he actually burned through the shield provided by the W skill in one strike, but his physical abilities could not be compared with the "Bandit".

He was slammed against the broken wall by the thrown anchor, hooked back by the retrieved anchor, and finally crushed in the spine by the giant anchor crashing to the ground, splitting his body in two.

The arsonist has been killed by the Deep Sea Titan!

With the 100 gold reward in hand, it seems these six are among the weakest of the hero units.

Although Loting said there was no need for the old man to take action, she still reached an agreement with Loting that she would be ready to provide fire support from the third floor of a dilapidated house.

The bronze giant slammed into the ground, unleashing a torrent of destructive energy. Lotin retreated a few steps, ensuring that all three shockwaves struck his opponent.

The "prisoner" was agile; he used the complex terrain to launch a three-dimensional maneuver and luckily dodged the first two shockwaves—he could jump really high.

In reality, the area of ​​effect of the E skill [Dark Currents] is actually a hemisphere.

Unfortunately, the two difficult leaps left the "prisoner" completely airborne, leaving him no chance to dodge the third shockwave. The destructive energy impacted his internal organs and tore his skin, making it impossible for him to adjust his posture.

During the "prisoner's" descent, the "poison scholar" also threw his most lethal poison, but the heavy diving suit was equipped with three-proof features and had excellent watertightness, so the system did not warn him that he had been harmed as a result.

The giant anchor struck the falling "prisoner." Clearly, even the Terrans' physical strength couldn't withstand the force of an engineering machine. His death was exactly the same as the "arsonist's."

The prisoner has been killed by the Deep Sea Titan!

【Double Kill! 】

The slowing effect of the E skill is clearly manifested in reality as a small-scale earthquake caused when destructive energy is injected into the ground, which will hinder the movement of enemies.

Therefore, the "orator" and the "accountant," who were not particularly physically capable, could not escape quickly.

The "Accountant" tripped over his companion with a pebble, and the "Orator" fell to the ground, using all his extraordinary eloquence to curse and insult his shameless companion.

What a brilliant and eloquent debate!

Loting crushed the other person simply by using his own weight.

The Orator has been killed by the Deep Sea Titan!

[Multi Kill!]

Both are worth 100 gold coins, but it's likely that he and the "Accountant" were designated as hero units because of their outstanding abilities in other areas, while their actual combat strength is quite unremarkable.

Unfortunately, the brief respite gained by betraying his comrades was not enough for "Accountant" to make up for the time wasted in the slowed-down state. The Bronze Giant still caught up with him, without even needing to use [Flash].

The accountant has been killed by the Deep Sea Titan!

【Occur Kill!】

The "Poison Scholar" watched in despair as the bronze giant approached him. All his efforts were futile against Loting, who was dressed in a heavy ocean diving suit. Loting could execute him with ease.

The Poison Scholar has been killed by the Deep Sea Titan!

Unbreakable!

3D wetsuit, kid!

The three-proof function is an inherent material property of this diving suit, while the rain-induced immersion meets the conditions of the deep-sea Titan template. It has nothing to do with whether the diving suit is physically watertight. In fact, the diving suit will even replenish the water that the Agor people need in Lotin at this time.

The last one to be executed was the most tenacious "bandit." His physique and protective gear allowed him to survive the impact of the giant anchor, which was enhanced by the W skill, but at the cost of severe internal injuries and loss of combat ability.

The bandits have been killed by the Deep Sea Titan!

Unbelievable!

[The Deep Sea Titans have wiped out the enemy!]

With 600 coins in hand, Loting leveled up to level 5, and his experience accumulation progress from level 5 to level 6 was already more than halfway complete. Loting purchased the [Giant's Belt] and the [Red Crystal], gaining another 500 health points. He was now just one step away from obtaining the [Heart Steel].

As your level increases, the experience points required to level up will also increase significantly.

"Old man, evil has sunk into the abyss. Leave the rest to me."

"There are also unarmed people who need your protection."

Rain washed away the bloodstains on her brass wetsuit. It was time for this Rhodes Island operator to return to her work; many infected awaited Rhodes Island's rescue and protection.

"I hope we can continue to cooperate in the future."

"I will write it down in the mission report as it is."

Outcast pays homage to the bronze giant standing in the rainy night; the sinner has been punished, and she must continue her work of helping the weak.

Meanwhile, Lotin headed to the next defensive cannon. After dealing with the cannon, all he needed to do was defeat Mandra, who was holding the broadcast tower, and Deeppool's plan in Little Qiu County would completely fail. The remaining remnants would scatter like birds and beasts after a little intimidation.

Chapter 33: How did you escape from the boss room?

"Nautilus, this way."
