Chapter 2946: Wealthy Octopus Brother

Su Xiao took the Sea King horn handed over by Baha. This thing could only be lent to Octopus Brother and could not be completely given to the other party. The Sea King horn had other functions related to the final link of the quest, which was mentioned in the quest introduction of the second ring of the main quest.

"The Sea King horn cannot be given to you."

"Why? What use do you have for it? Isn't lifting the curse more important? *Pugugu~*"

Octopus Brother sighed. The sound of its sigh was like a very rhythmic fart.

"It can be lent."

"Lent? I'm not sure if it can still be intact after I use it to pull out the Soul Arrows."

Octopus Brother spread its tentacles. This guy had lived for more than 200 years, but its mind was not old. The reason was that most of its time was spent on the seabed. It could sleep for half a year at a time. Plus, it was a super homebody. If it hadn't sensed that the Captain of the *Doom* had obtained the Sea King horn, it wouldn't have gone out and would have stayed in the seabed palace all the time.

"It can also be. Then you lend it to me, and the Soul Arrows will all belong to you."

"..."

Su Xiao didn't speak, just smiled. Even if he couldn't kill the strongest sea beast, he was prepared to try to get the essence.

"Octopus brother, we have some private matters to discuss. Can you avoid it?"

As Baha spoke, it gave Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang a look. Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang contacted Amu and hung a lantern on the bow of the ship. Seeing this, Octopus Brother jumped into the sea.

The black mist vortex appeared, and the *Doom* returned to Mingguang Island. After more than ten minutes, the *Doom* returned to the sea surface.

The sky was cloudless. A figure appeared on the deck; it was Amu who had returned. Just at this moment, Octopus Brother jumped onto the deck without noticing Amu who had just returned.

Baha cleared its throat, smiled at Octopus Brother, and said:

"Octopus brother, I want to consult you about something. This is your ancestor's horn, right?"

As Baha spoke, it looked Octopus Brother up and down.

"That's right, that is my ancestor's horn."

"Hmm, then I ask you, your ancestor had a horn. It might not be an octopus. Octopuses don't have horns, right?"

"Er~, this? Let me think about it. It seems... that's the case."

Octopus Brother was confused. It hadn't really considered this matter before. After all, in the sea beast world, no one would ever think about this kind of problem.

"So, how did your ancestor and its mate combine to turn from a horned creature in the sea into a soft-bodied creature?"

"!"

Octopus Brother froze. It hadn't really considered this matter. Its parents were both octopuses, but their size was huge, both at the hundred-meter level.

"It can't be wrong. Look at me. This is a Soul Arrow. Only with the inheritance of bloodline and soul power will it be transferred to me! I inherited the bloodline of the strongest sea beast!"

Octopus Brother glared at Baha, looking like it was going to beat Baha up.

"The bloodline of the strongest sea beast? So that's how it is. Very formidable. By the way, bring the essence left by your ancestor and let these essences serve as witnesses, witnessing our transaction, witnessing the moment you pull out the Soul Arrows. You say so, right?"

Baha certainly wouldn't have designs on the essence of Octopus Brother's ancestor, so it said it was a witness. It had other plans in its heart.

"No!"

Octopus Brother's tentacles slapped the deck. It always felt something was wrong, although it also wanted its ancestors to witness this moment.

"It's a pity. However, you are wearing three Soul Arrows. Among humans, this is wearing a slave collar. Will you be looked at differently in the sea beast world?"

Baha shook its head and sighed.

"No!"

Octopus Brother's anger surged. Just at this moment, the door of the captain's room was pushed open, and a figure with a wretched expression walked out, rubbing his hands.

"Hehehe, this must be the strongest sea beast. Looking at this majestic body, powerful mental pressure, it can't be wrong. It's definitely the strongest sea beast of this generation."

Caesar appeared brilliantly. Hearing his words, Octopus Brother gave a light snort and didn't care.

"If my news is correct, you are the King of the Magic Sea, Zakamoro. I heard the Emperor of the Empire, Hunting Bert, mention you a few days ago. He is very wary of your majesty."

"Heh~"

Octopus Brother smiled, its tentacles posed in a hugging posture, and said: "Old rivals. Decades ago, when he was still a little cub, I fought with his father."

"Indeed, they all call you the Ocean Demon Disaster."

"Also... not really. Outsiders spread rumors, hahahaha."

While Octopus Brother was talking and laughing, it had already slightly raised its head.

"I am Caesar, very honored to meet you, Mr. Ocean Demon Disaster."

Caesar stepped forward. Octopus Brother raised its head to show friendliness. Before long, Caesar, Baha, and Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang surrounded Octopus Brother in the center. Octopus Brother's laughter gradually became floating.

Before long, Octopus Brother floated, completely floating, almost turning into a plankton jellyfish.

"Your mood, we actually understand. It's indeed not good to use your ancestor's essence. If it were the essence of other strong sea beasts..."

Baha spoke very appropriately.

"This..."

Octopus Brother used its tentacles to scratch its head. After a moment, it nodded and said:

"Just two. They are both essences I collected within the last few years. Among them, the owner of one essence was even stronger than one of my ancestors. Of course, just a little bit stronger. Other things, let me see what else is in my palace."

Octopus Brother threw out bargaining chips. In fact, Su Xiao was not interested in the essence of Octopus Brother's ancestors. He needed the energy within the essence to maintain life activity. The essence of Octopus Brother's ancestors had existed for hundreds of years. The energy activity in this kind of essence was very low, or even had no activity, unless it was preserved in a special way hundreds of years ago.

"Deal."

Baha agreed decisively. The *Doom* set sail and headed straight for Octopus Brother's underwater palace.

"Octopus brother, seeing that you are so sincere, I'll give you something good. Remember, don't touch this thing directly, and don't eat it. Just put it near you and use your mental power to resist the fluctuations it releases. Understand?"

Baha became serious. It was different from Caesar. Caesar could do wicked things, but Baha wouldn't. When it killed enemies, it was ruthless enough to pull out the enemy's spine, but it wouldn't do wicked things. This was Baha's pride.

"What thing?"

Octopus Brother also calmed down a bit. Just now it was almost floating into a jellyfish.

Baha took out a glass bottle the size of a thumb from the team storage space. Inside was a small piece of tentacle. This thing was named 【Wriggling Tentacle】.

"This is a small part of an extremely dangerous existence. It is also soft-bodied, with mental power stronger than you can imagine, but it has already kicked the bucket, so there is no danger. You use your mental power to resist the mental power in this tentacle, and you will gradually become stronger, but you must remember, don't touch it directly, and don't eat it!"

Baha emphasized with a tone close to a warning.

"What will happen if I eat it?"

Octopus Brother looked at the small glass bottle in its hand, with a hint of vigilance in its eyes.

"It will attract fear beyond your imagination."

As Baha spoke, it took out a charcoal box and opened a small crack. Just for an instant, Octopus Brother jumped up and retreated to the side of the ship's rail.

"If you lure the main body of this tree root, what do you think will happen? If you encounter danger in the future, you can also throw that small bottle into the enemy's mouth."

Baha put away the charcoal box, and Octopus Brother nodded solemnly.

"Then... thank you."

"Who are you being polite to? Of course, I won't accept your essence for nothing."

"?"

Octopus Brother didn't understand the meaning of the first half of Baha's sentence, only taking it as a polite word, and silently kept it in its heart. It felt that its human etiquette had improved.

The *Doom* anchored on a sea surface covered with seaweed. Octopus Brother jumped into the water. Its palace was a bit far from here. If it went back and forth, it would take at least an hour. Octopus Brother was not stupid and would not take people it had just met to the sea surface above its palace.

More than an hour later, Octopus Brother returned. It used its tentacles to roll a shell with a diameter of one meter. After getting on the ship, it opened the shell, and various items scattered on the deck. The most conspicuous were two essences, one of which was the size of a bowl, and the whole was crystal blue.

Su Xiao picked up the essence on the deck, and a notification appeared.

【You have obtained Fish Dragon Essence (Immortal-grade, rare item).】 ===== CHAPTER 2947 =====
