Chapter 214 - 203: Renior’s Ghost Battleship
Chapter 214 -203: Renior’s Ghost Battleship
With the order flag bearer’s report, Da Fei nodded with satisfaction.
Good, Coltner is quite sensible. Any normal person would do the same. Considering he gave us the ship, bro, I’ll forgive you. Now all we need is for Renior to succeed. Although I messed up this time, luckily I had Renior as my trump card early on. This must be fate! It has to succeed, it must!
The breakout continues, the battle rages on, and the Radiant Wings is completely shrouded in poison fog, with large chunks of shattered wood and ship materials drifting in front of Da Fei. It seems the Radiant Wings is done for.
Da Fei, sweating with anxiety, wonders why the transformation hasn’t happened yet. If we keep fighting like this, we’re going to be finished! Could it be that Renior has failed?
Boom! Another thunderous crash! A hurtling catapult stone hits the Radiant Wings squarely!
— System Prompt: Warning! The Radiant Wings has been critically damaged and is about to collapse and sink. Please make sure to evacuate the battle or be ready to rescue the sailors!
Da Fei, startled, eyes narrowing, thinks: Hey, hey, hey! We’re really going to be done for! Didn’t the transformation actually fail? Bro, even if you failed, at least come back to the sword and give me a grunt!
Creak!!! A loud cracking sound comes from within the fog, and Da Fei’s heart leaps to his throat!
— System Prompt: The durability of the Radiant Wings has been greatly restored, and it has escaped the collapsing state!
It’s a success! It must be a success! Da Fei finally takes a long, relieving breath!
Of course, it’s too soon to be happy now. What we need to see is the power of the Ghost Ship, to see if it can indeed turn the tide and reverse the situation! Da Fei widens his eyes, ready to witness the miracle!
— Boom-pa-pa-pa! Another volley fires through the smoke, and an enemy Ghost Ship shatters thunderously. At the moment of shattering, a puff of green smoke flies from the ship towards the Radiant Wings hidden in the fog!
— System Prompt: The Radiant Wings has sunk a Ghost Battleship, absorbing energy from the enemy vessel. Its durability has been restored, and you have gained 11,800 experience.
Oh yeah!!! Da Fei finally can’t help but laugh out loud with excitement! It’s a success! Finally a success! Bro has a way out now! Wahaha!
Like a vampire, the Ghost Ship Radiant Wings crazily absorbs the defeated Undead’s soul energy. Its durability continues to recover, its speed keeps increasing, and with its high-speed maneuvers, the catapult attacks of the Ghost Fleet can no longer pose a threat. The poison fog shrouding the ship disperses with the wind, and Da Fei finally sees the reborn Radiant Wings!
Under the light of the silver moon, a silver-black behemoth gleaming with the light of black gemstones springs into view!
Awesome! Too awesome! In the end, it’s because I’m too awesome! All my adventurous and annoying experiences were worth it! Da Fei finally sheds tears of happiness!
The battle below is now without suspense. The Radiant Wings doesn’t need to break through anymore, it’s a one-sided harvest! All these Ghost Ships become its nourishment! Ghost Ships that had their souls sucked out cannot resurrect, and the number of ships on the sea keeps decreasing.
In this harvest feast, the heavenly sound of the system prompt arrives!
— System Prompt: Congratulations! Your Vice Hero Alicia has reached Level 22! Attack +1, Life +2, obtained a free attribute point, and a Skill Point!
Wahaha! The poor student finally leveled up two levels and can now learn Master-level Arcane! Come on, your training life has just begun!
…
Finally, the last Ghost Battleship was vanquished, and the entire Dead Sea returned to calmness, with countless pieces of broken wood bobbing on the waves.
Victory! A complete triumph, wahahaha! Of course, the biggest regret is that Renior is merely a partner and not my Vice Hero; otherwise, wouldn’t my experience be through the roof? Well, a partner is good enough, I genuinely can’t handle any more Vice Heroes, especially after my taste has been refined by those beautiful female ones–I truly have no interest in male heroes, and even less so in undead men.
The Radiant Wings is now quietly stationed at sea, enveloped by a thick layer of Death Energy–apparently a sign of being overfed?
Da Fei’s flagship hurriedly pulled alongside, and a bandaged Coltner and Catherine came to the gangway to meet him.
Catherine smiled and said, “As expected of the Captain, always finding a way through the crises!”
Coltner saluted and said, “Sir truly deserves to be called Elorin’s hero. I deeply admire you. If I manage to survive this journey and return, I will certainly compose your heroic saga and spread it far and wide!”
Oh? Spread far and wide? That’s the old trade of a Minstrel adding prestige–just what I like! Da Fei laughed heartily and said, “I suggest you write it now, my dear sir. If you happen to meet with an accident, at the very least, you’ll leave a legacy behind!”
Coltner saluted again and agreed, “Sir makes a good point!”
Catherine chuckled, “The Captain is just joking. With the Captain’s prowess, Sir Coltner won’t run into any trouble.”
Coltner sighed and said, “I’ve learned a lot from Mr. Renior’s speech just now. After this experience, I think I’ve come to understand what it means to be a navigator, at least to have the courage to face death head-on.”
Oh? Could this be the rhythm of ascending to a navigator rank? Great, then it would not be as speculated that we would have to fight the Sea Demon.
Just at that moment, Renior’s voice echoed from the ship, “Perhaps it’s better not to compose any poems. Having a great reputation without sufficient strength can only bring about one’s own downfall.”
Da Fei was suddenly taken aback! Right, Renior and I have teamed up to oppose Makar–what if the poem spreads and reaches Makar, ruining everything?
Da Fei quickly said, “Sir’s words are wise, so don’t compose a poem indeed.”
Coltner nodded in agreement, “Sir is correct, I will dedicate myself to learning more on the remainder of our journey.”
Renior spoke solemnly, “Now that the minions are destroyed, the next step is to find the Magic Altar presiding over this Dead Sea Maze. The altar must be located somewhere in the sea. Once found, we must kill the Magician presiding over the altar. Only by doing so can everyone return to the world of the living. However, this Magician might very well be an avatar of the Six-headed Sea Demon Scylla, and is certain to be extremely powerful. Everyone must take this time to rest and make preparations for battle.”
Da Fei was shocked, “An avatar of Scylla? How strong?”
Renior sighed, “I don’t know. Scylla is a Demon God from the mythical era; it won’t show its true form to mortals. The deities we see are all avatars, and even as avatars, they are beings mortals cannot easily contend with. However, one thing is for certain–the recent battle must have depleted some of the avatar’s strength, making it possible for us to defeat it. So the sooner we find it, the better.”
It feels great to have a knowledgeable navigator as a commentator! But Renior’s so eager for battle–could it be that he’s eyeing the energy of the Demon God’s avatar?
Da Fei promptly said, “Understood, let’s take action immediately.”
