Chapter 1025 - 964: Deirdre’s Independent Expedition
Thinking that the problem still lies in the curse of the Sea God, Da Fei realized the severity of the issue.
However, Da Fei was not overly fearful. After all, he’d withstood the grand spectacle of the Nether Sea Sirens summoning storms and rain, let alone being a God-level Navigator with various Divine Storm Towers and the Heart of the Ocean at his disposal. If even he couldn’t pass this, no one in the world could. Ultimately, it’s still offering him experience and growth, so he gladly accepts.
And while the main account is making every effort to pass, the secondary account also better not be a nuisance.
Then Da Fei switched to the secondary account to check the situation. At this moment, Junxiang and Ouling, who were idling, already had 12 layers of bird droppings accumulated on them, and their stamina was exhausted, coupled with poison and weakness effects. The entire ground was filled with green smoke and mud, piled ankle-deep with bird droppings.
In such circumstances, the troops could hardly move, definitely impacting the construction of the Rune Tower. But such minor issues are no problem for a large guild; they’ll simply send in reinforcements to repair it. It seems it will take at least a day or two to fix the Rune Tower, and Junxiang might as well drown in the droppings.
Thus, concentrate all efforts on the main account to pass.
Now, Da Fei’s fleet was fully prepared to face the giant storm waves. All regular troops had retreated back into the cabin; otherwise, they would be swept into the sea by the huge waves, resulting in unnecessary losses. Meanwhile, all warehouse supplies were secured and tied with ropes; otherwise, after a stormy shake, items like bottles of wine and honey would be completely lost, also resulting in unnecessary losses.
After all preparations were in place, the fleet once again entered the Dark Tide Sea, centered around the Jade Dragon, and at this moment, the scene dimmed, and a system prompt sounded:
——System Prompt: You have entered the special scene Dark Tide Sea, transitioning scene, please wait patiently...
Da Fei’s eyebrows twitched in shock! A scene change again? Have I arrived at another space? Do I still have a way out? At this moment, the rolling waves and the sound of thunder clashed in his ears. Da Fei was greatly shocked; goodness! Just now, it was calm, and with a scene change, it immediately turned into furious stormy waves?
Finally, the scene changed. Everything was pitch black, Da Fei felt a violent shake under his feet, then a flash of lightning crossed, and a white flare lit between heaven and sea!
At that instant, Da Fei saw, he was truly on the rough sea amidst howling wind and thunder, the calm archipelago had disappeared, indeed there was no way back!
After the lightning, it turned dark again between heaven and sea. At the edge of the sea and sky, a dazzling golden light flickered, needless to say, that must be the target of this journey, the Dark Tide Temple.
——System Prompt: You are encountering a huge storm, your God-level Navigator Skill "Storm Navigation" activates, resisting the storm, gaining experience +5631.
This is the long-lost innate special skill "Storm Navigation!" At this moment, Da Fei couldn’t help but feel elated! Come, there’s no need for an escape route, let the storm, let the lightning, let the sea monsters, let the experience come even fiercer!
Just then, a red explosion on the radar, a large patch of red cloud in front of the fleet speedily approaching.
Da Fei’s heart trembled, quickly releasing the Blood Eagle for reconnaissance!
He saw them, like a cluster of stars flying and swarming, it’s fish! Leaping from the waves, flying swiftly on the sea surface, a swarm of flying fish! Each flying fish was about the size of half a human! This is planning to attack the crew on deck while the fleet is dealing with the storm!
But come, my crew are Boss-level Angel Army, not to mention my God-level Navigator’s 50% Life Physical Strength bonus, and the Ultimate Sea Monster Hunter’s 20% Life Physical Strength bonus. A war of attrition in the storm poses no threat, however many little rascals there come, they’ll all die!
The swarm of flying fish rushed forward, battle commenced! Numerous "Damage Immunity!" and "Flame Shield damage -3" notifications flashed!
Da Fei chuckled in astonishment! With defense like city walls and Master-level Defense Skill’s 50% damage reduction, the damage these flying fish caused was less than 1 point, and with the angel’s Dragon Blood Armor carrying the Divine Skill "-1 physical damage," this miraculous damage immunity appeared! As for the Flame Shield damage, it’s nothing to mention, it’s the special skill of my Divine Artifact Shield.
Meaning now these flying fish don’t need the angels to waste stamina attacking, the fiery reflection of the shield can kill them outright! However many come, however many die!
Ha ha ha ha! Too weak, is this the test level of the Dark Tide Lord? Is there anything stronger? Where are the big sea monsters and sea monster heroes hiding? Commanding such a big array, it’s impossible without a big sea monster leading!
Excitedly, Da Fei immediately commanded the Blood Eagle to inspect the surroundings; sure enough, the Blood Eagle discovered a much larger red dot behind the swarm, a giant flying fish as big as a shark! Floating on the sea surface yet hiding beneath the waves.
Da Fei’s eyebrows jumped! This scene must certainly be the test of the Dark Tide Lord for me, right? The cleaner and more efficiently I pass the test, the more I’ll be valued by the Dark Tide Lord, right? Fine, I’ll claim the admiral’s head directly from the midst of a thousand armies! I’m not afraid to scare you to urinate.
Da Fei hurriedly summoned Tamilia and Deirdre: "Our Flying’s target is the flying fish leader on the radar, we need to perform a surprise teleportation kill. But the flying fish’s agility probably far exceeds the sea monsters we encountered in the Nether Sea, so if teleportation capture fails, Deirdre will lead the Sea Demon Troop for pursuit!"
Tamilia nodded: "I’ll give it my all."
Deirdre responded excitedly: "Master, I won’t let you down."
Da Fei nodded: "Alright, start!"
Ultimately, it’s not a matter to be overly cautious in putting Deirdre into combat. Flowers in a greenhouse don’t grow big, let alone become Ancestor Creatures. Anyway, there is the Sea Soul Staff to absorb her soul to keep her from dying, so when it comes to employing her, Da Fei disregarded caution; let the battle be bold and fierce in the storm!
As Tamilia activated the teleportation, Flying flashed with a Demon Light and disappeared!
The next moment, Flying’s huge body, like Mount Tai bearing down, suddenly appeared right above the Flying Fish Boss——and crashed down!
At this instant, the Angel Army and Sea Demon Army on Flying’s deck simultaneously soared into the air! The Angel Army blocked the sky over the sea surface to prevent the Flying Fish Boss from flying away. The Sea Demon Army, of course, were poised to charge into the water to prevent the Flying Fish Boss from escaping into the sea.
——Boom!!! Flying splashed into the water with a loud bang! A remarkable damage number of "-16764!" burst out from the water beneath! It was a hit!
Tamilia exclaimed: "The flying fish escaped! The Holy Vine didn’t catch it!"
Da Fei’s heart sank, as expected, even the high-tech Sea Monster Technique can occasionally fail!
Without a word, Deirdre led the Sea Demon Troop diving into the water! Just then, a sudden towering wave crashed onto Flying, with massive force pushing Flying to the wave peak, Da Fei’s body felt weightless, feeling once again the sensation of flying!
Messing around carelessly could lead to capsizing! At that moment, Da Fei deeply understood the risks of such intense combat in a stormy sea!
However, trading has its risks, let alone combat! Da Fei gritted his teeth, watching the radar as Deirdre’s Sea Demon Army green dots continued submerging, submerging, Da Fei’s heart also kept sinking, haven’t caught up yet? How long will this pursuit last?
Finally, the green dots of Deirdre’s Army completely disappeared from radar, out of my reconnaissance range!
——System Prompt: Your Vice Hero Deirdre has led 46 Sea Demons out of your team for an Independent Expedition!
Independent Expedition conceding defeat! Goodness, Da Fei’s heart sank into an ice cave instantly, I forgot to tell her to stop pursuing if she couldn’t catch up! Given Deirdre’s attributes, they are only so-so, even less than my secondary account, and inferior to Angel Hero Elda, her expedition leaves me completely insecure, what if something goes wrong underwater, can my Sea Soul Staff recall her soul?
At this moment, Da Fei regretted it! Despite talking about how flowers in a greenhouse are what they are, when they are truly put out in the wind and rain, the feeling is entirely different! Now Da Fei felt a sudden urge in his bladder, the legendary scare-urinate!
Da Fei stared intently at the radar, time seemed to stand still for him, amidst the raging wind and waves, Da Fei’s world turned silent, now he could only await the ultimate redeeming system prompt!
