Chapter 906 - 858: Hilda’s Sharp Insight
The battle concluded, the battlefield was tidied up, and the losses were counted.
Undoubtedly, the Flying suffered the most damage, but thanks to its self-healing ability, the collisions were just like floating clouds. The bottoms of the eleven pirate ships were somewhat damaged from collisions, but not to the extent of affecting normal sailing. As for the others like the Radiant Wings, Jade Dragon, and even the Golden Spearfish which was grounded, they weren’t touched by the Sea Monsters at all.
This glorious victory was closely tied to the high-tech, swift tactics freshly invented by Da Fei; had it been conventional warfare, losses would have been inevitable.
In the end, it’s still the brother who’s awesome!
Just reveling in the moment, the teleportation array glowed, and Catherine and Anlicia came over to celebrate. Wow hahaha, this teleportation visit is truly awesome!
By the way, since the brother’s so awesome, does Hilda admit his prowess? If she does, she should just follow the brother. But for now, ignore Hilda; the key thing is what these pirate captives think.
So Da Fei smiled and asked, "Catherine, if it weren’t for our army’s exceptional strength earlier, I’m afraid Captain Blood Hook would have said goodbye to some brothers forever, what’s his thoughts?"
Catherine laughed and said, "I’d like to know too!"
So Catherine pulled out a loudspeaker and shouted, "Blood Hook Yassoro, congratulations on surviving unscathed, do you have a sense of gratitude for surviving?"
Blood Hook responded sullenly, "Anyway, we’re always ready to die sooner or later."
Catherine smiled and asked, "Being able to let your brothers live one more day to drink one more day is always nice. Seeing our powerful combat ability, do you have any thoughts of changing bosses?"
Blood Hook sneered, "Sorry, if you want to kill, just kill. Don’t compare me to those two-faced scum from the Desolate Sea."
"You!" Catherine was instantly fuming!
Da Fei raised his eyebrows and quickly shouted into the loudspeaker, "Good! You have your principles and loyalty, people like you I admire the most! Hurry and repair the ship so we can hit the road!"
Catherine’s mood obviously turned sour, so she murmured, "I’ll return to the ship then!"
Anlicia chuckled and sighed, "Let’s be on our way soon, or if another God-level Undead shows up like last time, it’ll be troublesome."
That’s true, in a place like the Nether Sea, who knows what kind of strong figure might show up.
So the fleet reformed its lines and set out again. At this moment, the souls of the Undead Sea Monsters on the sea surface were being absorbed by the Sea Soul Staff and the Radiant Wings Ghost Ship. The dozen giant bone whales that couldn’t be processed directly at the scene were dragged away by the Flying’s bottom with its dozen Holy Vines, eating as they moved.
Why can they eat as they move? Because the brother has a boring skill—carrying corpses! Damn, using it here is simply a divine skill, hahaha!
It was already 10 p.m., and the fleet was sailing briskly amidst the shimmering foggy silver sea and sky. Around the fleet, small Sea Monsters began to gather, these are all experience and nourishment! Da Fei hastened the Druid Vine Demon army to charge the Charging Crystals in preparation for the next battle.
Then he opened the Sea Chart, at the current speed, reaching Nether Sea Paradise might take three days in-game, which is akin to the fleet making a return journey to Elorin Port again. This really delays things! Damn Blood Sea Wave, he’s the one to blame. If he causes the brother’s important things to be delayed, the brother will destroy his Blood Sea Guild eternally!
Speaking of the Nether Sea Angel’s Death Angel Samael, he and Hilda are fellow natives, right? Falling from the same heaven, meeting up might trigger some storyline or something? Also, speaking of Hilda, didn’t she say she wanted to start classes? When the brother boarded, he went straight to sleep and hasn’t seen how she’s settled in yet.
So Da Fei transported himself through the teleportation array to the Radiant Wings. Although after the last battle against Skira’s replica, the upper structure of the Radiant Wings was almost razed, the restored Radiant Wings still retained its luxury, demonstrating Sir Coltner’s persistence.
Da Fei entered the bar remodeled from the stern cabin. The bar was spacious, the candlelight was dazzling, the wooden walls were covered with densely packed landscape decor adding to its delicacy.
There were, of course, no customers in the bar, and behind the counter, Hilda gazed through the cabin window at the view outside the ship.
Seeing Da Fei arrive, Hilda greeted, "Welcome Captain! Would you like something to celebrate the victory?"
Da Fei chuckled and sat at the bar, "Then I’ll have a glass of the bar’s most expensive drink."
Hilda flipped through the menu to the last page and laughed, "The bar’s most expensive drink is the Nether’s Ice and Fire Cocktail, invented and mixed by Sir Coltner! 1000 gold coins a cup!" After speaking, she mixed drinks from a large glass bottle and a gray bottle, shaking and blending them.
Invented by Coltner? Da Fei was taken aback! But then seeing Hilda’s performance like a juggling show, Da Fei’s eyes lit up and he couldn’t help but clap, "Wonderful!"
Hilda laughed and placed a cup of foaming like cola in front of Da Fei, "Please! Actually, the more exciting part is this drink, it seems quite fitting."
Da Fei took a small sip.
—System Prompt: You drank the "Nether’s Ice and Fire Cocktail," reducing the Netherworld’s death erosion effect by half; the drink’s effect lasts a minimum of three days.
Damn! It actually has a special effect! The Netherworld’s death erosion means staying too long in the Netherworld; the life form gets sick, becomes weak, losing stamina and health. Although not as intense as the Hellfire River’s scorching heat, it’s definitely a slow killer for life forms.
Da Fei exclaimed, "Unexpectedly, the Vice President is so profound! Great drink! Miss Hilda, how about I treat you to a glass?"
Hilda shook her head with a smile, "Treat me with another drink, this one is better left aside."
Da Fei exclaimed, "This wine is quite appropriate for the situation, isn’t it good for your health here?" Come on, tell me loudly, you’re an angel, who are you afraid of?
Hilda flipped open the menu and laughed, "The recipe for the wine is written on the menu, it needs Nether River Water! That’s the gray stuff in the jar that looks like lychee wine!"
Nether River Water? Da Fei was taken aback, and took the menu to have a look, it was clearly a random doodle! And then there was a ridiculous line: "This wine is at least 1000 Gold Coins per glass, right?"
——System Prompt: You have obtained the incomplete brewing formula for the "Netherworld Ice and Fire Cocktail"!
A recipe! Da Fei was so surprised he raised an eyebrow: this was obviously a draft that Sir Coltner casually wrote, and it’s actually a recipe? So Coltner is so profound!
While still in shock, Hilda sighed, "Well, about this Nether River Water, you saw it, it’s a mix of various corpse waters and bone waters. It takes courage to drink it down!"
Ah, geez! Even though it’s a game, Da Fei still felt a wave of nausea! Jeez, could you not say that out loud?
Da Fei hurried to change the subject: "Then I definitely won’t let my Sea Demon Army fight in the water!" Jeez! How could I let my dear ones jump into such a gray sticky pool of corpse water to fight? What if they get pregnant?
Hilda smiled, "Yes, yes, just leave it to those three divers."
Da Fei was also surprised, "Won’t those three divers have any problems going down so often? Looks like I should get them to drink three glasses of wine for prevention."
Hilda was surprised, "They are undead, so of course, they won’t have any issues, and they definitely don’t need to drink wine."
Da Fei was shocked, "They’re undead?"
Hilda was also surprised, "You’re their boss, you didn’t know?"
Da Fei was shocked on the spot! Jeez! No wonder they’re always in black, wearing masks with mysterious eyes! As for their diving prowess, it must be because they’re dead, so they don’t need to hold their breath like the living? Turns out there are so many secrets about them!
Hilda laughed, "Actually, the wine recipe is quite simple. Just mix various types of alcohol with purified Nether Sea Water to make it. There are plenty of commercial wines in the fleet’s warehouse, we can produce it in large quantities and distribute it to the sailors of each ship to increase their resistance, as long as it’s not said to be corpse water, it’ll be fine. Just pretend it’s fish bone soup or rib soup."
Jeez! Now I can’t even drink fish soup or rib soup!
Da Fei nodded repeatedly, realizing, "Okay, great, I’ll leave this task to you, how about it?"
Hilda shook her head and sighed, "Just me? Although it’s my essential job, this task is too heavy, isn’t it?"
Is she implying she wants a huge overtime bonus? Wait a minute! Da Fei suddenly thought of those over twenty brainwashed dancers on the Flying! Initially, I thought about casually teaching them during boring times at sea, but now it seems I’m too busy even as a monk to idle like that, better give this task to this angel instructor to train them!
Da Fei laughed and said, "Then I’ll call over twenty female workers to help you, although they’re rookies, they might need some guidance."
Hmph, they’re just here to help, they’re not here to learn from you, you have no reason to hike the price.
Hilda indeed smiled faintly, "No problem!"
Da Fei joyfully said, "Then I’ll transfer them over right away!"
For a Captain or City Lord, transferring personnel naturally doesn’t require going personally, just open the fleet control panel and make the adjustments. So, just as Da Fei was pinching his nose trying to gulp down the remaining wine, a line of voluptuous and scantily clad beauties of various races walked into the bar.
In that moment, Da Fei felt like the Master of a Harem! This bar was Da Fei’s dreamt-of paradise during countless lonely nights!
The half-blood Dark Elf named Ista stepped forward and said, "Please instruct us, Master!"
Instruct? Of course, to serve me, jeez! Da Fei then smiled at Hilda, "These are the female slaves I rescued from the Demon Camp, they’re from various races. I heard they used to be excellent priests of their races, but after being brainwashed by the Guxin Family of the 72 Pillars Demon God, only the special skill of an advanced dancer is left. This Ista is the only intelligent manager among them who wasn’t fully brainwashed, just give her your commands if needed."
Hilda was dumbfounded for a moment, then sighed, "What a pity, she used to be a hero!"
Da Fei was suddenly shocked, "She was a hero?"
Ista was even more surprised, "I was a hero? Impossible!"
Hilda sighed, "You weren’t unbrainwashed, you were washed more thoroughly than anyone, washing away your identity as a hero. You didn’t become an idiot because you were once a hero! You’ve only got residual memories left!"
Da Fei and Ista were shocked on the spot!
Jeez, how sharp are Hilda’s eyes! It’s one thing to see through the undead nature of the three sailors, but she could also see that someone was a hero! What a saint is she?
