Snap! Snap!
The enormous tentacles entwined the fifteen-meter Black Rock Mecha tightly and lashed it fiercely twice with two thick tentacles, producing two massive sonic booms!
The underwater Sea Beast, known as Vortex Hundred Tentacles, was a gigantic squid with a large mouth capable of creating vortexes and continuously using nearly a hundred tentacles to draw enemies into them.
Amidst the storm, it effectively restrained the movement of the Black Rock Mecha.
Meanwhile, the tremendous noise also startled countless fish species, including many rare ones, which began emerging from the sea, stirring up the entire ocean.
On the splashing surface of the sea, fish topped with Golden Fruit also appeared.
"Adult Golden Fruit Fish."
Observing the scene before him, Mechanic Diya's frosty golden eyes couldn't help but lower,
"Blue Fire, it seems our luck isn't that great."
While they had finally encountered the Snake Father and the rare Golden Fruit Fish, their fortune also brought them the rarely seen Vortex Hundred Tentacles.
"Luck..."
Blue Fire stayed silent but merely stroked his pale beard.
"The Sea God Pirate Group has the ability to control Sea Beasts; rather than calling it luck, it's more like an inevitable challenge we have to face!"
"But compared to the Sea Beast—"
Blue Fire's pupils swiftly contracted, igniting a pale blue flame, his gaze intensely focusing through the fervorous clash and the tentacles towards the increasingly distant Snake Father, beside Melanie, the man in the Snake Father Cloak...
"Snake Father?"
Blue Fire closed his eyes, lost in thought.
He had fought with Snake Father before, so he had left some impression of being a Transcendent of considerable brute strength and seasoned background.
But that was all, as in front of him, he wouldn't last three rounds.
Blue Fire's gaze remained intently fixed on "Snake Father."
With hands in pockets, Diya asked curiously,
"What's wrong? Blue Fire, did you notice something?"
The blue flame in Blue Fire's eyes extinguished,
"Nothing, just a Light Seer's intuition. Perhaps, the Sea God Pirate Group deceived us, replacing Snake Father with an even more formidable Transcendent."
A more formidable Transcendent... Diya's lips curled into a smug smile, Read new chapters at My Virtual Library Empire
"More formidable, is he also a supernova like me? If it's Hai Ge, this mission might just get interesting."
Within the supernovas, there are rankings too and Diya was ranked only sixth. Driven by a natural admiration for strength, he had vowed to become the earliest and the strongest legend among them, to prove his family's worth!
"Who knows?"
Blue Fire pulled out a cigarette from the inner lining of his suit, then sheltering it from the rain with his hand, lit it with a Blue Fire lighter,
Boom!
In the next moment, the Black Rock Mecha recharged and emitted a molten lava-like hot force from its body, enabling it to assume a punching posture atop the sea despite being entwined.
Its left arm condensed a swirling powerful force, then unleashed a punch.
Fire Dragon Fist. Black Rock Shattering Explosion!
Accompanied by a thunderous roar, the scorching Molten Lava Fire burst forth like a dragon, creating a series of hundreds of flame ripples.
Boom!
Dozens of thick tentacles were instantly blasted into shreds, the residual heat making the cold raindrops sizzle.
Chen Qi watched the warm raindrops splatter on his face.
This time, the two Third Rank Transcendents dispatched by Bonfire Energy Company were no ordinary opponents.
He had seized the opportunity to throw Extraordinary Fish Bait into the sea and used himself as bait to attract some large Sea Beasts.
However, evidently, this large Sea Beast did not possess the strength to kill the Black Rock Mecha.
After all, Vortex Hundred Tentacles was just an ordinary, larger Sea Beast from the Sea of Calamity.
But as a delaying tactic, it was enough.
Chen Qi steered the helm, turned, then accelerated.
At this moment, Alor, resting his hands on the railing, was amazed that the assault of the Black Rock Mecha had startled so many fish from the seabed, including the rare Golden Fruit Fish!
This was the value of fish in high-risk zones!
Alor exclaimed in amazement,
"It's unbelievable that there are such rich resources in the first half of the Sea of Calamity!"
Melanie patted Alor on the head,
"Stop looking, none of these belong to you, let's go—"
Melanie and the others felt very different from Chen Qi; they were merely relieved to have narrowly escaped death.
Then, under Chen Qi's operation, Snake Father accelerated at full speed, exploiting Vortex Hundred Tentacles' delay on the Black Rock Mecha, and headed deeper into the Sea of Calamity.
Meanwhile, due to Vortex Hundred Tentacles and subsequent considerations, Blue Fire and Diya on the Bonfire Exploration didn't pursue.
After the assault of the Black Rock Mecha, which had severed dozens of tentacles, Vortex Hundred Tentacles returned to the deep sea, no longer mounting an attack.
Boom!
The Black Rock Mecha tore off the tentacles from its body and the operator maneuvered it back to Bonfire Exploration's Mecha station.
Above the sea, everything gradually returned to calm.
At this moment, Diya said with a grin,
"Manager Blue Fire, what a pity, what a pity. Without that giant squid, we would've captured Snake Father, not to mention, we missed catching a Golden Fruit Fish."
Blue Fire removed the cigarette from his mouth and exhaled a thick ring of smoke,
"It's unimportant. Initially hoping to extract the island coordinates from Snake Father was also an impractical task."
