Chapter 12 Mathematical Paradoxes

Captain Jack suddenly turned the rudder plate, and the hull of the Ghost immediately began to turn, and the twenty-four artillery on the double deck on the port side were aimed at the attacking giant squid.

"Listen to my orders, all the muzzles are aimed at the target and fire!"

Boom boom boom! The sound of artillery fire sounded one after another, shaking the entire warship trembled.

Although the cannons on the ship looked ancient, their range and accuracy were surprisingly amazing. A series of shells fell on the Dream-Eating Squid like eyes, and the explosion of fire instantly submerged the monster.

"Haha, it's so good, keep boasting me!"

Under Captain Jack's command, the Ghost took a zigzag route to avoid the pursuit of the Dream-Eating Squid, while using the cannons on both sides to pour fire power towards the giant squid.

The shells kept falling on the monster, not only causing the surface of its body to flash continuously, but also slowed down its speed and could not quickly catch up with the Ghost.

Deathwing was riding the black dragon, and Tao Lesi drove the Phoenix fighter and launched an attack from both sides of the giant squid, but the power of the attack was not that strong. The black dragon of Deathwing was fine, and the dragon breath it sprayed was similar to the power of the Ghost artillery. Tao Lesi's Phoenix fighter, the two ion cannons hit the Dream-Devouring Squid without even a sound, which was completely like tickling.

There is no way. Although the Phoenix fighter's technology is very advanced on the surface and has been surpassed by the Ghost for hundreds of years, in essence, both are created by mental power, and the power depends on the strength of the mental power.

Although the three long-range firepower was fully activated and the Ghost cannon was very powerful, it seemed a bit unrealistic to kill the giant squid with such an attack. While constantly undertaking the firepower, the Dream-Eating Squid slowly approached the stern of the Ghost.

"Everyone is ready! I'm going to take the board!" With Captain Jack's roar, dozens of pirates rushed to the deck, with swords and muskets in place.

However, Captain Jack naturally knew how bad the combat power of these pirates he had transformed was. He looked at Xing Tianyu and Gabriel next to him, "Two, I'm going to ask you this time! We're a life-long deal, don't mess it up for me!" Captain Jack shouted at Xing Tianyu and Gabriel.

"Don't worry!" Xing Tianyu patted his shoulder and flew up directly.

As he spoke, the giant squid had already chased to the tail of the Ghost.

Just like the huge sea monsters in the mythological stories that hunted the dead sea ship, the giant squid stretched out several huge tentacles and instantly wrapped around the mast and stern rudder of the Ghost. It slowly opened the huge mouth under the tentacles, as if it wanted to stuff the entire Ghost in.

Although the Ghost is huge, it is still a little worse than the giant squid with hundreds of meters long.

The pirates immediately rushed up, some fired muskets, and some used swords to cut the tentacles. A heroic red-haired female pirate rushed up from under the deck.

"Captain, our ship can't move."

Jack suddenly handed the rudder to the female pirate, "Prime Minister, come and drive the boat. Everyone else, kill me!" He said that, and pulled out his sword and musket and rushed forward.

Gabriel also rushed up, and used the spear in his hand to continuously fire light bullets, smashing the tentacles that stretched towards the deck. With her joining, the battle situation finally stabilized temporarily.

But Xing Tianyu had already flew into the air at this time.

At this time, the Dream-Eating Squid's tentacles extended and spread out, grabbing the mast, stern of the Ghost and the sides of the ship. In this way, these tentacles were completely fixed and extremely scattered. Xing Tianyu seized the opportunity and swooped down from the sky.

The giant finger sword slashed at the root of a huge tentacle.

A shrill white light flashed, and the sword blade transformed from the highly condensed mental power easily slashed the skin of the Dream-Devouring Squid, and the huge tentacles broke in response to the sound.

The Dream-Eating Squid let out a sharp roar, stretching out a tentacle to grab the broken tentacle back into its body. At this time, a traction beam suddenly locked the tentacle, but it was launched by Tao Lesi's Phoenix Fighter.

As soon as the traction beam was locked, Tao Lesi immediately flew towards the distance in the fighter plane.

The giant squid seemed to hesitate to chase or stay or continue to deal with the Ghost. However, Xing Tianyu had already launched a second attack from under it. The giant sword swept across, and another tentacle was cut off. This time the death wing rushed over, and the two dragon claws grabbed the still twisting tentacle and flew quickly to the other side.

"Haha, good! Young men, try harder that monster is almost out of reach!" Captain Jack shouted, commanding the pirates to push several cannons from both sides of the ship to the rear deck, aiming at the huge mouth of the Dream-Eating Squid and bombarding them.

Seeing that there were only two tentacles left and that the Ghost Squid had to extend a few new tentacles from its body, but this undoubtedly weakened the strength of its body. The damage from the shell explosion seemed to be getting bigger and bigger, while the recovery speed of the Dream Squid's body was getting slower and slower.

Xing Tianyu kept hovering around the giant squid, diving from time to time and slashing a tentacle. When the sixth tentacle was cut off, the light blue fluorescence on the Dream-Devouring Squid had become very dim and almost became transparent. At this time, it finally could no longer catch the Ghost, and several tentacles were cut off by Gabriel on the deck. The Ghost broke free from the constraints and immediately turned quickly. A fierce close-range volley on the starboard side, and finally, the Dream-Devouring Squid completely disappeared into the Nightmare Universe.

"Haha, we won!" Captain Jack stood at the bow and shouted excitedly, and the pirate sailors cheered.

Xing Tianyu was a little surprised when he looked at the disappearing Dream-Eating Squid. He originally thought that he would have to leave something after this thing died. After all, spiritual matter has an entity in the Nightmare Universe, but this thing has completely disappeared and dissolved, which feels a little wrong.

"Hey, come down quickly, brother Viking, we are going back!" Captain Jack suddenly shouted on the deck.

Xing Tianyu hurriedly landed, and Death Wings and Peach also gathered over, and several people gathered on the Ghost again.

"I'm going to return? Are you no longer killing two Dream-Devouring Squids?" Tao Lesi said with some conscience.

Captain Jack glanced at the Ghost but shook his head, "I'm afraid it won't work anymore. I almost wiped out all the shells just now, and the hull was seriously damaged, and many of my subordinates died. After I went back, I had to recover for a few days."

Xing Tianyu glanced at the deck. Indeed, the Ghost was in a mess. In the battle just now, the masts, artillery, decks, and ships suffered great damage, and there were obviously fewer pirate sailors.

"Hey, why didn't you see the crew's body?" Taozi suddenly said in surprise.

Captain Jack shook his head, "I don't know that you must be a newcomer, right? These sailors are all transformed into life forms, and they will naturally disappear and decompose after death."

Xing Tianyu was stunned after hearing this. Could it be that the Dream-Devouring Squids were transformed like these disappeared sailors? But when they thought about it, they felt that it was unlikely that the Dream-Devouring Squids had such strong combat power. If so many Dream-Devouring Squids could transform into, how powerful the mental power of this illusionist would be.

Successfully hunted a Dream-Devouring Squid, but everyone's emotions became excited. Except for Xing Tianyu who was thinking, everyone started chatting.

Tao Lesi scratched his head embarrassedly, "This, I am indeed a newcomer, I have only become the Nightmare Lord for more than a month."

Death Wings said, "I dare to come to the Nightmare Kingdom to do missions in just one month? As a newcomer, you are already very powerful. I became the Nightmare Lord, but it took me more than a year to dare to run here."

"Oh, then how long has it been taken for you to ascend from a junior lord to an intermediate lord?"

Deathwing said with a little smugness, "Hehe, I've improved quite quickly. It's not the year I was delayed. It only took two years in total. Gabriel was more powerful and was promoted to the intermediate lord in just over a year."

"Wow, senior, you are so awesome."

Gabriel shook his head, "My speed is not as fast as I know, the fastest one should be the high-level lord Jim Renault. He only took two years to upgrade from a junior lord to a high-level lord."

"Wow, this is too exaggerated." Deathwings obviously heard this message for the first time, "It's so hard for me to improve my mental power now. How did he do it? I know, that Jim Renault must be the same as you two. Is there any special skill right? By the way, what is your special skill to acquire mental power? Or can you offer me a merit value and buy it?"

Captain Jack shook his head violently, "It's not as exaggerated as you imagined. I only spent three years on my mental power and had only been over a thousand years. It's not much faster than you."

Xing Tianyu kept thinking, while thinking, listening to the conversation between several people. The more he listened, the more he felt something was wrong. There seemed to be something wrong in the conversation between several people.

"By the way, Brother Viking, you are very strong. By the way, how long have you been the Nightmare Lord?"

At this time, Captain Jack suddenly brought the topic to Xing Tianyu.

"Three years."

"Three years? No, I haven't seen you in the past three years."

Xing Tianyu explained, "I have never been to the Nightmare Kingdom before, and I have only been here recently."

"Damn, no, wouldn't that mean you've been promoted from junior to intermediate in just a few months?" Captain Jack looked surprised, "And you have such a high intention. I don't think you will become the fifth high-level lord in two years. I'm afraid you will have to be ahead of me."

As soon as this sentence was spoken, Xing Tianyu suddenly had an inspiration in his mind. He was promoted to a high-level lord in two years? He finally realized that the problem was locked.

According to several people, it will take about two or three years for a Nightmare Lord to upgrade from a primary lord to an intermediate lord. Even if everyone present is talented elites who upgrade at an average speed, it will take five years for an ordinary person to do so.

But even so, at this speed of improvement, it is logical that the intermediate lord should be the mainstream of the Nightmare Lord. If there are a thousand nightmare lords in the entire nightmare space, most people should be able to ascend to the intermediate lord in just five years. Even if some people don’t like to harm others and don’t use the dream killing technique to improve their mental power, Xing Tianyu believes that the proportion of such people should not exceed half, and there will be hundreds of intermediate lords in five years.

But why are most of the Nightmare Lords in the entire Nightmare Space just primary lords? There are only dozens of intermediate lords, and there are only four higher lords?

This ratio does not make sense from a mathematical point of view.

Just when Xing Tianyu felt incomprehensible about this strange phenomenon that suddenly appeared
