Chapter 972 - 916: The Man Destined to Become Pirate King
At 1 p.m., Da Fei was wolfing down a takeout meal while organizing his team to enter the second giant dragon treasure. The size of this dragon skeleton was about the same as the first, so it was likely to be of similar difficulty.
Therefore, this time Da Fei decided to bring Deirdre into the instance to gain some experience. After all, with the Ancient Tree Fortress, a super tank, there was no longer any concern about the hero’s own safety, and having an extra hand to pick up equipment was an advantage not to be missed.
Everything was ready, and with a flash of light, the Flying once again teleported into the dragon’s chest cavity. Nasir Fortress launched into action, and the scene shifted again to a blood-red, gold-glistening space, accompanied by the same System Prompt:
——System Prompt: You have entered an unstable Giant Dragon Treasure Space. The space will completely collapse in 30 minutes. Please hurry!
Then, the same golden treasure dragon taunted with "stupid and greedy mortals" as it rose into the air. Da Fei chuckled in surprise; indeed, it was the same monster. With the experience from the previous battle, this fight ended swiftly with a series of rocket launcher blasts, clearing the field in just a minute.
The joyful hand-cramping money-picking activity began once more, with 29 minutes to spare this time. However, Da Fei felt the pressure! Yes, the pressure to find the Divine Level Fragments. The first battle’s success in finding the Divine Level was due to using the ultimate God-level Lucky Hand, which can only be used once a day, so now Da Fei had to rely on his Expert Level Treasure Appraisal Skill for a carpet search of each bloody puddle.
While Da Fei was joyfully playing in the Dragon Tomb, a large pirate ship was cautiously sailing through a blood-foggy island sea area in the Southern Ocean of China Region.
Yes, this was Blood Sea Wave, following the new Desolate Barbarian Pirate Leader, Barak, in search of the Demon God sealed by the Sea God. After nearly two days of real-time sailing, Blood Sea Wave, whose name was so red it was almost purple, reached this dangerous sea area.
At this moment, the sea surface was hazy, dark currents surged, and huge whirlpools occasionally swept through. But under Barak’s superb sailing skill, they repeatedly turned peril into safety, an operation standard no player could achieve! What was even more incredible was that in several unavoidable whirlpools that seemed poised to swallow the ship, the whirlpool’s strength unexpectedly weakened, posing no threat to the ship.
Blood Sea Wave couldn’t help but look at this subdued and humble leader with newfound respect: "Boss, you’re awesome!"
Barak smiled proudly, "I’ve become half a cripple and can no longer fight, but no one can replace my skills. That’s why I still shamelessly remain the leader."
Since you know you’re a cripple, hurry up and pass on your skills to me before you become completely useless! Blood Sea Wave eagerly said, "Boss, can you teach me the skill to avoid whirlpools?"
Barak laughed heartily, "Sailing Skill is enough! The key is to understand whirlpools, to judge the direction and distance of movement from the speed of the whirlpool’s rotation. That’s the basics. Then, when two or more whirlpools appear simultaneously nearby, you need to determine whether they counteract each other or merge to strengthen. Just now, the few whirlpools I deliberately didn’t evade were because I calculated that this whirlpool would inevitably be counteracted by the nearby counter-rotating whirlpool——"
At this point, Barak sighed, "In short, this is the wisdom of experience, the old fish are the ones refined. I’m not a good teacher and can’t teach you, the key is for you to realize it on your own! Anyone can be a pirate, but to be a master, there’s a lot of learning involved."
Well, that’s a load of bull! You talked so much and it was all for nothing!
Just then, Barak continued seriously: "However, just because I can’t teach you doesn’t mean Demon God Focolor can’t. He has the power to control storms and waves, easily creating massive whirlpools and storms to capsize ships and drown sailors. The Pirate King gained some of his power from him. If he teaches you, in the future your growth should lean more towards the Mage direction——alright, look ahead, see that blood-red Vortex Gate? That’s it!"
Blood Sea Wave excitedly nodded, "Is it my turn to fight now?"
Barak replied seriously, "That’s right, but it’s the Undying Pirate Army placed by the Pirate King. The Demon God, eager to escape, won’t refuse assistance from anyone and won’t stop anyone, but the Pirate King doesn’t want others to obtain the Demon God’s power. Of course, in my opinion, these Undying Armies are nothing special, but once you attack them, it means declaring war against the Pirate King. With just one word, all pirates will attack us——that is to say, from today, I’m no longer the Desolate Barbarian Pirate Leader, and you’re no longer my second-in-command, and your Pirate Alliance dreams are over. We’re rogue pirates now! Are you ready for this realization?"
I’m destined to be the Pirate King, man! Blood Sea Wave laughed maniacally, "To other pirates, our Desolate Islands aren’t ours anymore. Rest assured, boss, once we gain the Demon God’s power, we’ll take back what we lost with our own hands! Moreover, we’re not completely destitute, we still have the city on Miracle Island, and as you said, the most promising pirates are actually those who ally with the Kingdom’s Royal Pirates. My dual identity is something you taught me; we can join the Kingdom as Royal Pirates. I’ve wanted to distance myself from those rustic pirates for a long time!"
Barak laughed wildly, then patted Blood Sea Wave on the shoulder, "Well said! That’s why for this battle, I brought out the most elite 300 pirates from the Desolate Island. These 300 pirates will be under your command, let the Pirate King see the might of the Desolate Barbarian Pirates!"
elites! At this moment, Blood Sea was shaking with excitement, having followed you for so long, I finally get a taste of success.
Alright, once I make it big, the first thing I’ll do is take down Da Fei! No matter how powerful his ship is, can it outmatch my Vortex Technique? And thinking of Da Fei, while looking at the Vortex Gate ahead, Blood Sea Wave’s brow furrowed: "Boss, can anyone who has your sailing skill come here?"
Barak laughed heartily, "Of course, provided they have my skill. Otherwise, even the most elite and powerful fleet will be wiped out at the entrance!"
Blood Sea Wave hurriedly asked, "But there are some magic ships that can teleport! If they teleport directly to the entrance, doesn’t that—"
Barak smiled coldly, "Do you think this blood fog is just anything? It’s the Divine Power Field of the Sea God’s Seal on the Demon God; in this field, any teleportation or magic is ineffective. Only skill matters here!"
Blood Sea Wave was finally at ease, good, no matter how powerful Da Fei is, he can’t be powerful enough to reach here. Now, it’s time for me to give up everything and open the Demon God’s door.
