Chapter 2901: Lurking Danger

~12 min read 2,274 words

"Achoo~"

On the slave-trading ship, Baha sneezed and said: "I don't know how Amu and Benny are doing. They wouldn't be drifting on the sea again, would they?"

"Woof."

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang seemed to be laughing. Regarding Benny drifting on the sea, it chose to be sad for a while, and after returning to Reincarnation Paradise, it would mercilessly mock her and then get scratched.

"Amu has experience in this area, there's no problem."

Su Xiao picked up the Ouroboros Slate from the ground. The first thing he needed to do now was to reach the 'Wandering Soul Sea Area', which was shrouded in thick fog and had silenced countless ships.

Below the 'Wandering Soul Sea Area' was a huge, bottomless trench, and the Misfortune was at the bottom of that trench.

Although the Misfortune might kill its master, the best choice right now was to reawaken it. Not to mention the combat power of the Misfortune, Su Xiao wanted to lift the curse of the Demon Sea, and the Misfortune was one of the few clues.

Although the curse of the Demon Sea hadn't shown any drawbacks yet, it was better to lift it. If it were to break out completely, the situation would be very bad.

Su Xiao lit a cigarette. Although he knew of the existence of the 'Wandering Soul Sea Area', he didn't know the specific location of that sea area.

【Announcement (Tree of Void): Some Qiyuezhe No. 17**55 has successfully formed a pirate group.】

Looking at the Ouroboros Slate in his hand, although he didn't want to use this thing frequently, it was the fastest method right now. Other contractors had already begun to develop rapidly in this world. Once they couldn't keep up with the average development speed, whether they could leave this world alive was unknown.

Su Xiao injected a small amount of mana into the Ouroboros Slate and asked: "Where is the Misfortune?"

Su Xiao was trying to see if the Ouroboros Slate could provide information according to his request.

"On the seabed."

The words on the Ouroboros Slate flashed and disappeared. It must be said that in the absence of triggering a "lie," the information provided by the Ouroboros Slate was 100% accurate, but in terms of practical significance, it was like a fart.

"The direction of the Wandering Soul Sea Area."

Su Xiao changed the question. He discovered one point: after the Ouroboros Slate gave information like a fart, it would not increase the Resurrection Value.

"Feel it with your heart."

"I'll fuck your sister, Xiang Bubu, don't stop me, I'm going to fight this broken stone, I've endured it for a long time!"

"Woof."

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang retreated two steps and looked at Baha ignorantly, meaning: "I didn't stop you, that slate doesn't look easy to mess with."

With Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang's eye-contact assistance, Baha flew forward, grabbed the Ouroboros Slate with its eagle claws, and slammed it onto the deck with a *thud*.

*Crack! * Black electric arcs emerged, enveloping Baha.

"Lia-lia-lia-lia..."

Baha twitched, fell onto the deck, and spat out black smoke. Its health dropped by 10 points, an experience that was extremely unforgettable.

"Stupid furry creature."

After the Ouroboros Slate displayed this sentence, its volume began to shrink, turning into a stone ring and wearing itself on Baha's eagle claw.

"Brother, I was wrong, you change to someone else."

Baha kicked its eagle claws repeatedly and bit for a long time, but couldn't pull the Ouroboros stone ring off.

Just as Baha wanted to get rid of the Ouroboros stone ring, a sound of breaking air came from diagonally above, and Baha's gaze immediately became sharp.

*Boom! *

A heavy object slammed onto the deck, and the whole ship began to tilt. A wave surged from the side of the slave-trading ship toward the distance.

The whole ship was like being hit by a meteorite, somewhat folded. Inside the broken wooden planks, a figure with dragon wings stood straight. His claws and arms were covered with gold-black scales, the vertical pupils in his eyes were golden, and his strong body was covered with various scars.

"Sorry to disturb you, I broke your ship, this is compensation."

The man whose aura was like a scaled dragon threw out a soul crystal (large) and lowered his head slightly to express his apology.

"I am Alec, from Death Paradise, responsible for clearing out violators just like you. I'm telling you my name not because I'm famous, but because... Death Berserker Gask is my brother. Have you... seen him?"

As Alec spoke, the wooden planks around him shattered with a *crack*.

"Seen him."

"Oh?"

Alec was somewhat surprised, then nodded.

"My brother died on the Canglong Continent. I found his remains on an ice field. It was done by contractors from your Reincarnation Paradise. Do you know... anything related to this? 200 complete soul crystals, or 20,000 soul coins, as long as you know who did it, I can pay you now."

"..."

*Zing~*

Su Xiao drew his blade. He didn't have much chance of winning against this man named Alec. As for how Death Berserker Gask died, he didn't know, and there was no need to explain; it was meaningless.

"Don't know? Pity. See you again if fate allows. Night of the Decapitator, I heard you killed Feishi, killed beautifully."

Alec grinned. He stepped on the wooden planks beneath his feet, broke through the shockwave, and rushed straight into the sky. He was going to find the next contractor. He could lock onto contractors within a radius of tens of kilometers; this was the power of the dragon blood in his body.

Alec was strong, but he never took his anger out on anyone; that was something only weak-hearted people would do. He had a blood connection with Gask. As long as not too much time had passed, when the person who killed his brother appeared before him, the blood in his body would resonate.

After a series of sonic booms passed through the high sky, Alec of Death Paradise disappeared from sight.

"Although these two brothers are considered enemies, their character is okay."

As Baha spoke, it remembered the Ouroboros stone ring on its leg again, continued to shake it hard, and "greeted" the genealogy of the Ouroboros stone ring in its mouth.

Su Xiao leaped to the stern, cut the ropes with a few slashes, and the small boat tied to the stern fell into the sea. This slave-trading ship was completely scrapped, but the ship itself couldn't sail anyway; the previous battle had severely damaged the main sail.

The small boat was not big, capable of carrying 4-5 people. Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang and Baha were responsible for rowing the oars, while Su Xiao sat at the stern, thinking about subsequent countermeasures.

He felt that the "feel it with your heart" reminded by the Ouroboros Slate just now didn't seem to be perfunctory or a lie. Thinking of this, he closed his eyes and meditated, making his perception sharper.

"Captain."

"We are... waiting for you."

"Wandering Soul Sea Area..."

Ethereal whispers appeared in Su Xiao's ears. He opened his eyes and looked at the sea horizon to the side. He felt that the Misfortune was in that direction.

"Row that way."

"Boss, is it really 'feel it with your heart'?"

Baha was a bit dumbfounded.

"Close to that meaning."

Su Xiao washed the soul crystal (large) in his hand in the seawater, confirmed that it had been notarized by Reincarnation Paradise, and bit off a large mouthful with a *crack*.

Five hours later, Shipwreck Island, pier.

The pier built of wooden planks had been there for some years. Coolies were busy loading cargo. This was the territory of the great pirate Duke. Recently, there had been a conflict between the Duke and the West Sea King, making Shipwreck Island restless.

On a two-masted sailing ship, a dozen pirates with injuries on their bodies walked down the wooden planks. After they left, only three men remained on the deck.

"We have a ship, but those pirates are always a problem."

"Get some gold coins, and you won't have to worry about those pirates not obeying."

"You say it simply. The gold coins in this world are very special. According to these pirates, there is the power of the Demon Sea in the gold coins of this world. Gold has value, but it's not high. Gold coins that don't contain the power of the Demon Sea are not universal."

The three contractors looked at each other with hostility and formed a temporary team, preparing to share a ship. When they developed to a certain extent, the three of them would turn against each other.

*Tap, tap, tap. *

Footsteps entered the ears of the three. The three looked at the sound and saw a woman wearing a long black dress with a high slit, stepping on high heels, walking onto the ship along the long wooden planks.

"It's a contractor from Holy Domain Paradise, seems to be... a healing type?"

The three looked at each other with hostility and smiled. A healing type from Holy Domain Paradise coming to the door was either to cooperate or to send a Scarlet Card.

Among the three, a man wearing glasses stepped forward to meet her. He looked very gentle, and inside his sleeve, an energy needle had already been formed.

"This lady, if you join us as a healing type, we welcome you. If not..."

The man with glasses didn't continue, and the two behind him dispersed to the left and right.

"Join you? I refuse."

The healing type from Holy Domain Paradise stopped. A black-and-white intertwined healing staff appeared in her hand. This female contractor was named Guang Mu. Judging from her words and actions, she was not here to seek cooperation.

"Then I won't be polite..."

Before the man with glasses could finish his sentence, he found a white energy line connected to his chest, the other end on the enemy's healing staff.

【Hint: You are receiving the healing effect of 'Wild Growth', your health will recover 560 points per second. This effect will remain in effect until the caster interrupts this ability.】

Seeing this hint, the man with glasses was somewhat stunned. The other party was clearly here to find trouble, but ended up helping him heal? His state was very good, and he didn't need healing.

"Do it!"

The man with glasses no longer cared about anything else. As long as the enemy was killed, there would be no problem.

Just as the man with glasses was about to rush forward, he felt his legs become very heavy. He looked down and saw a pair of legs nearly half a meter thick.

"It's the poisonous milk of Holy Domain, Guang Mu!"

A dull shout came from behind the man with glasses. While using the item, he looked with his peripheral vision, and the scene in his eyes made his heart skip a beat.

At this time, one of his teammates was like an inflated balloon, the flesh and blood on his body surging, constantly proliferating, and the skin was stretched to be somewhat transparent.

*Boom! Boom! *

Explosions appeared. Except for the man with glasses, his two teammates exploded on the spot, blowing into sky-filled flesh and blood fragments.

This was an excessive healing effect. The reason why Guang Mu was called poisonous milk was because of this ability. After receiving her healing, once the health reached 100% for more than 1.5 seconds, life force overflow would occur. Combined with Guang Mu's ability guidance, the overflowing life force in the enemy's body would cause the enemy's flesh and blood to proliferate and grow without restraint.

"You..."

The man with glasses rushed forward with heavy steps. After taking two steps, he felt himself growing. The proliferating flesh and blood on his torso almost swallowed his head.

In just a few seconds, the man with glasses turned into a big meatball with short limbs. His clothes were torn, and he could only see the situation outside through the gap in front of his left eye.

"Spare... life."

"Bye-bye~"

Guang Mu blinked her left eye, and with a *boom*, the man with glasses, who was like a flesh ball, exploded.

Guang Mu walked up gracefully, her healing staff tapping on a scarlet card to collect it.

On the distant horizon, a small boat slowly sailed over. Guang Mu looked at the approaching boat, the corners of her mouth curling into an arc.

"Your target is here. You've been waiting for him in the Demon Sea for three world progressions, haven't you? You're really desperate. What benefits did the Arcane Eternal Star give you to make you go to such lengths? Also, how are you so sure he would come to the Demon Sea?"

Guang Mu looked at the pier, where a man in full armor was sitting on a short wooden piling.

"He became the captain of the Doom during the Strongest Contest. After advancing to the Eighth Tier, his first world could only be the Demon Sea."

The armored man spoke, his voice having a metallic texture.

"I won't participate in your personal vendetta."

Guang Mu walked onto the pier, smiling as she walked away.

"You took my deposit, 3,000 soul coins."

"What deposit? Did I? I don't think so."

"We just signed a contract..."

"Hehe, a contract? Read it clearly next time before signing. I learned this from those old schemers in Reincarnation Paradise."

Guang Mu walked away laughing; the first time she met him, she felt he didn't seem very bright.
