We agreed to set sail, so you'd become the ruler of the deep sea?

Chapter 130 The Three-Headed Hound Appears and Transforms into a Giant! (Seeking Monthly Tickets!)
The crystal coffin is back!

On the deck, Shane silently stared at the crystal coffin in front of him. The iron chains on it had long since disappeared, and the seawater dripping from the edge of the coffin proved that it had indeed been thrown into the sea.

This situation was undeniably bizarre, but perhaps because he had anticipated it, Xia En was surprisingly calm.

If it were really that easy to solve, it wouldn't have made Wayne Moriarty so wary.

After a moment's thought, Xia En walked to the crystal coffin and slowly but firmly pried open the lid with his short sword.

The crystal case lid was lifted with ease, offering almost no resistance.

Only then was Xia En able to clearly see the scene inside the coffin.

Within the magnificent and mysterious crystal lies a pale and exquisite skeleton.

It wore a long, dark blue robe, and beside it was a large, soft blue hat, somewhat resembling a witch's hat.

Although it was just a skeleton, the bones appeared exceptionally white and delicate, like flawless jade, giving it a strange beauty.

It is not difficult to see that this is a female skeleton.

Xia En observed her opponent warily and cautiously, prepared for her to suddenly attack at any moment.

But after staring at it for a long time, the skeleton remained unresponsive, simply lying there quietly.

Moreover, in Xia En's perception, this skeleton did not have any characteristics of being "alive," and even the residual secret power was negligible.

It was as if... she really was just a cold skeleton that had long since died.

"Xiange, what do you think?"

Shaen frowned as he looked at the bronze dragon.

As someone who possesses some "wisdom from a past life," Xian Ge has the broadest knowledge among those on the ship.

"Well……"

"It does seem to be just an ordinary skeleton, only it's a little pretty?" Xiange said uncertainly.

"This crystal coffin seems to be the reason it returned."

Beside her, Fei Ya also spoke up: "Mili and Dutch also said that there is no evil aura on these bones."

Upon hearing this, Xia En silently abandoned his idea of ​​taking the skeleton out and grinding it to ashes.

Although it was somewhat unethical to do so, he didn't mind being a villain for the safety of the ship and crew.

However, now that he realizes the main problem is the crystal coffin, Shane has adopted other solutions.

Shane put the coffin lid back on, then carried it to the muddy ground at the edge of the forest.

"A coffin should be buried in the ground!"

Before long, Shane and several crew members dug a large pit, threw the crystal coffin in, and filled the pit with soil.

After doing all that, Xia En was still not satisfied, so he moved a few heavy stones and placed them on the soil, thus building a simple "tombstone".

"Crystal coffin, look, I've even built a tomb for you, so just rest in peace!"

Xia En bowed to the stone tablet, then led the crew back to the ship to rest.

Because everyone was exhausted today, they quickly fell into a sweet dream after returning to their rooms.

……

……

the next day.

Perhaps it was Xia En's rambling that had an effect.

The tombstone remained silently there, and the crystal coffin did not appear on the deck.

So the crew members began to perform their respective duties and carry out the tasks assigned to them by Shane.

Meanwhile, Xia En waited silently until the [Submarine Voyage] count refreshed.

"Submarine flight, start!"

As the light and shadows shifted before his eyes, his consciousness sank into the deep sea, and Xia En once again arrived at the [anchor point] left at the entrance of the royal court.

He exhaled deeply, his eyes filled with fighting spirit.

"Coral City, I'm back!"

As the saying goes, pressure is the source of motivation.

The threat from the Blood Duke was like a Damocles' sword hanging over his head, giving Shane a strong sense of urgency.

He needs to level up like crazy during this period to improve his strength.

on the other hand.

Even now, the battles involving projected bodies have become a way for Shaen to relieve stress.

While lost in thought, Xia En had already stepped through the gates of the royal court.

Immediately, rustling sounds came from the surrounding corners.

Hidden within this magnificent silver and gray palace are coral monsters transformed from secret travelers.

Moreover, perhaps because it is located in the epicenter of the pollution outbreak, the corals here have acquired certain special properties.

Therefore, they not only have a more acute sense of perception than the polluters in the outside world, but their strength also needs to take a big leap forward.

The previous Griffin Knights, without the combined sword formation, were nothing more than minor monsters within the royal court.

But Xia En showed no fear, raising his blood-red greatsword and taking the initiative to face the nearest silver-white coral monster.

clang--

The dull thud of the collision, along with the surging undercurrent, spread through the seawater, causing the entire royal court to tremble slightly.

One after another, the silvery-white "Polluters" awoke from their slumber and pounced on Shane in droves.

A cold glint flashed in Xia En's eyes.

Grip the sword hilt tightly, step forward, and slash downwards!

The crimson sword light was hidden in the shadows, temporarily ignoring the resistance of the seawater.

Combined with his increased speed, the sword light gained extraordinary power, slicing through the neck of a [Contaminated One] as easily as cutting through tofu.

[Ship Spirit Level: LV3 (33%)!]

[Career Compatibility: 27/100!]

—Shane had long ago discovered that improving the compatibility of the [Deep Sea Favorite] class was actually very simple.

Simply by diving and exploring the deep sea every day, the compatibility will gradually improve.

It could be said that this was a promotion method almost tailor-made for him.

Shaun's lips curled up slightly as he looked at the silver-white [Polluter] approaching him, and he even felt a sense of familiarity with its deformed coral face.

"Come, become my stepping stone!"

……

……

The silver coral monster beside the royal gate has decent defense.

But once Shane found the key to the cutting, a single [Contaminated One] could hardly pose a threat.

However, when their numbers increase to a certain point, the situation becomes somewhat dangerous.

After all, some of the "Polluters" were court mages, assassins, or other special professions in their previous lives.

The gun is easy to hide, and the dark arrow is hard to prevent.

The occasional ranged attacks were also giving Xia En quite a headache.

Seeing that there were no fewer than thirty [Contaminated Ones] in his field of vision, and that they were closing in, Shane decisively took out the [Radiant Amulet].

laugh--

A dazzling ball of light suddenly appeared in the dark seawater.

It continuously radiates a holy light in all directions.

The silvery-white coral on the surface of the polluters disintegrated in an instant, exposing their weak and decaying bodies.

In the end, it melted away little by little, turning into pale dust.

At the same time, a strong sense of alarm arose in Xia En's mind.

It seems that something terrible is about to descend!
Of course, Xia En hadn't forgotten the side effects of using the [Radiant Relic] in the royal palace.

Rather, it's precisely because he knew this that he chose to use it.

the reason is simple.

High-level hunters often appear in the form of prey.

This time, Xia En is going to hunt down the very hound that has taken his life several times!
Soon, a strange mist began to spread in the seawater of the royal court.

It's hard to imagine that fog could blend into the seawater.

But right now, this very thing is happening right before Xia En's eyes.

These thin mists had a faint dark red hue.

In the blink of an eye, a huge hunting dog emerged from among them.

Its body is covered with numerous corals, all of which are dark red.

Moreover, it has three enormous heads, with countless interlocking sharp teeth in its gaping maws, which are shrouded in eerie black mist.

Six black and red eyes filled with intense hatred.

It is directed at the living, and also at the bright light in mid-air.

Its oppressive atmosphere is so strong that it can almost suffocate people.

Shane couldn't help but exclaim, "What a huge guy!"

"However, the experience points it can give must be a lot, right?"

As he thought about it, he gripped the heavy wristband on his right hand.

At that moment, Xia En suddenly had a childish idea and muttered to himself.

"Transform!"

boom--

A tremendous roar erupted from his body.

That was the sound of all the power compressed to its limit bursting forth in an instant.

A terrifying, thunderous, and violent secret power surged into Shane's heart from the wristband.

Then, like a storm or lightning, it rushed through his limbs and bones, causing his body to swell and rise higher and higher.

Two meters, three meters, five meters...

Before long, a terrifying, towering giant stood before the three-headed hound!
