Chapter 2936

The stars filled the sky; it was 8:00 PM in the West Sea region.

Su Xiao stood at the bow of the Doom Ship, looking at the burning island a nautical mile away. Throughout the entire day, relying on the Doom Ship's sailing speed, he had attacked multiple islands.

Compared to the gains from attacking 'Batu Island,' the gains from conquering other islands were not high. The reason was that the pirates belonging to the West Sea King's forces on those islands had hurriedly fled after 'Batu Island' was conquered.

The remaining pirates and the security teams organized by slave traders were all sycophants who had been bought off by the West Sea King with a few words.

This was normal. Apart from a few major forces, the small and medium-sized forces in the Demon Sea world were poorly informed. It might take them days or even longer to find out what had happened.

【Hint: Your Reputation has increased by 3 points.】

【Your Reputation has increased by 1 point.】

【Your Reputation has increased by 5 points.】

Prompts appeared one after another. This was due to the nature of Reputation; as the news of Su Xiao conquering a large number of islands spread, he would receive Reputation successively. This was linked to his fame.

Su Xiao calculated the gains from the island attacks earlier. He had obtained 9.7% World Origin, two 【Epic Grade Treasure Chests】, and one 【Saint-Spirit Grade Treasure Chest】. He hadn't paid any price for these gains, so of course, he wouldn't let them go.

Too many pirates had been killed. Even though the drop rate of treasure chests was reduced due to human-wave tactics, killing enough of them would always lead to miracles.

There were still quite a few islands under the West Sea King's name, but Su Xiao didn't plan to continue. Conquering those islands with low defensive strength yielded no gains, and traveling took time. Most of the time spent attacking islands earlier had been spent on traveling.

Su Xiao opened the Reputation Ranking to check his current Reputation.

【Reputation Ranking activated, current ranking is as follows:】

First Place: Bai Ye (Reincarnation Paradise): 4530 Reputation points.

Second Place: Alec (Death Paradise): 3990 Reputation points.

Third Place: Ming Lang (Reincarnation Paradise): 3975 Reputation points.

Fourth Place: Guang Mu (Holy Light Paradise): 1850 Reputation points.

Fifth Place: Black Rose (Reincarnation Paradise): 1622 Reputation points.

Sixth Place: Sweet Orange (Apocalypse Paradise): 888 Reputation points.

Seventh Place: Carnival (Apocalypse Paradise): 760 Reputation points.

Temporarily in first place. Looking at Alec's Reputation, Su Xiao felt that Alec should still be able to catch up.

Su Xiao really wanted to know one thing: if he really obtained first place, would the 'Baptism of the Demon Sea' be a direct reward applied to him, or would the authority be sealed in an item, and only after activating that item could he receive the baptism?

Su Xiao tried to consult this question through his brand, although he was currently in first place on the Reputation Ranking, he didn't hold out much hope. As a result, a prompt really did appear.

【Hint (Tree of the Void): The Baptism of the Demon Sea is an authority-class reward. Once obtained, it will be sealed within a specific item.】

Seeing this prompt, Su Xiao began to take an interest in first place. He was currently the captain of the Doom Ship and didn't crave the Baptism of the Demon Sea, but that didn't mean others didn't.

Regardless, this was the reward for first place, and its value was absolutely astonishing. If he could leave the Demon Sea world alive and return to the Reincarnation Paradise, Su Xiao would urgently need a large amount of Soul Coins.

After Zhan Long Shan was promoted to Immortal Grade, it needed to be strengthened, followed by embedding Immortal Grade gems.

Gem embedding could be put aside for now. Just talking about strengthening Immortal Grade equipment, the cost was staggering. The only thing that was gratifying was that strengthening Immortal Grade equipment didn't use Soul Crystals (Complete), but another type of rare crystal.

Su Xiao had Baha hang a lantern on the bow of the Doom Ship. A black mist vortex appeared in front, and the Doom Ship was dragged into it.

Just back on Minguang Island, Su Xiao found a dozen Cursed Shipwrights to repair the Doom Ship. Having conquered so many islands, sea battles were unavoidable, and the Doom Ship was not invincible; it would also sustain damage.

Xiang Bubu Wang and Baha took 3,400 Demon Sea Gold Coins to find the Sea-Bound One to replenish the Cursed Ones. As long as Amans, Ghost Shadow, Mad Dog Quike, and others didn't die, there wouldn't be any major problems.

All the Cursed Ones detached from the ship's hull. They actually needed to rest, or rather, they needed to absorb a special type of energy on Minguang Island.

Only Minguang Island had this special energy. The Cursed Ones couldn't actively absorb it; they just needed to be on Minguang Island, and this special energy would gradually enter their bodies.

Su Xiao walked into the captain's cabin and lay on the bed to rest. Once this round of repairs was completed, it would be time for the decisive battle with the West Sea King. He had developed for so long, and this battle was the test.

Minguang Island was filled with wailing ghosts and howling wolves. Su Xiao slapped the wall board beside the bed, and a ripple spread from within the Doom Ship. Minguang Island soon became quiet.

Su Xiao fell asleep. In his dream, he felt himself sinking, sinking into the seabed, and finally being swallowed by darkness.

Su Xiao's eyes opened. He sat up from the bed and carefully recalled the dream he had just had; the feeling was too real.

After sitting on the ship in a daze for a while, he picked up the pocket watch on the cabinet. Minguang Island had no distinction between night and day; it was 7:00 AM.

It was time. Su Xiao walked out of the captain's cabin. The next destination: Blood Hoof Island. Blood Hoof Island was the West Sea King's headquarters. The island was large, and the surrounding area was filled with red giant rocks. Seen from high above, the red giant rocks surrounding the island looked like a hoof print, hence the name Blood Hoof Island.

That island could be described as easy to defend and difficult to attack. The red giant rocks surrounding the island were like natural barriers, with even the shorter ones being over ten meters high, allowing one to look down from a commanding position.

The darkness in the surrounding area receded. After leaving the different space where Minguang Island was located, the salty sea breeze blew against his face.

At this moment, the Doom Ship was in the West Sea region, not far from Blood Hoof Island. Before long, Blood Hoof Island appeared in front.

Su Xiao looked ahead. It was just as the rumors said: the island was surrounded by red giant rocks, and there was only one pier. At this moment, there were no ships near the pier.

The entire Blood Hoof Island was strangely quiet. On the red giant rocks around the island, he didn't see any pirates on guard. Looking around, there wasn't a single person.

"Baha."

Su Xiao signaled Baha to go up and scout. Baha flew up. Just as he was about to fly over Blood Hoof Island, the feeling of being locked on appeared.

"The broken guns of this era, even with supernatural characteristics, the bullet speed won't be fast... I'll be damned!"

Baha shuttled into the different space. A harpoon whizzed past. If Baha hadn't been fast, he would have been skewered by now.

Baha began to continuously shuttle through space above. Before long, he flew back to the vicinity of the Doom Ship.

"Boss, I didn't see any ambush on the edge of the island. The West Sea King's people are all in the center of the island. It's too far; the bow cannon can't hit them."

"Hmm."

Su Xiao steered the Doom Ship into the sea. All the Cursed Ones detached from the ship's hull. The large iron cage on the deck containing Mad Dog Quike was dragged away by several Cursed Ones.

Mad Dog Quike was the trump card. For this battle, Su Xiao prepared to release Quike to test his combat power.
