Endless Ocean: Escape Starting from a Canoe

Chapter 68 Demon Blade: Found you!!!
Shi Ming does have information about the Saint-level sea monster.

The Eye of Intelligence once told him that in addition to the "List of Wonders of the Endless Ocean" and the "Rank S Awakening Skill Ranking", there was another list called the "Sanctuary Ranking", which recorded seven Sanctuary-level awakening skills that surpassed S-level, as well as the corresponding Sanctuary-level sea beasts.

There are only 7 species in the entire world.

By bathing in their blood, you can obtain a Sanctuary-level Awakening Skill!

The abilities gained are unpredictable.

The Black Society is very well hidden, and it is named after its homeland. It is always guarding the "Great Black Dragon" that does not allow any drifting ships to approach. It should be ranked above it.

Those sea beasts are beyond terrifying. Even to bathe in their blood, one must first reach S-rank to be qualified to receive the violent power in the blood of a Saint-level sea beast and awaken Saint-level skills! Not to mention killing them.

Shi Ming was certainly envious!
However, he is far from having the ability to kill the Great Black Dragon right under the noses of the Black Society.

Therefore, it's something we can only dream about.

He also gleaned another noteworthy point from this information.

"The lighthouse, in its communications, once again urged the navigator to return. This is a very special signal."

"Both the Lighthouse and the Golden Mountain value the reputation of the Golden Tower intelligence organization highly and have almost no precedent for breaking contracts voluntarily. This time, they are willing to break the contract to ensure that Navigator Edward completes or terminates the mission within two days and returns to the Lighthouse. Presumably, the Navigator plays an irreplaceable role in the research on the remains of the Holy Temple."

"What abilities does he possess that make the lighthouse value him so highly?"

Shi Ming couldn't understand it.

If he were to run into him in the next couple of days, he wouldn't mind investigating further.

Of course, if the Navigator really terminates its mission and returns to the Lighthouse, then there's nothing that can be done.

Within ten minutes, three general-class drifting ships and eight gold-class drifting ships responded that they had received the message, just like the corporate slaves that Shi Ming had seen in his previous life.

Michael also stated that he would urge Edward to complete his mission and return to the lighthouse as soon as possible.

Jinshan stated that if the black gang's request could not be completed within two days, he was willing to mediate and compensate the black gang.

……

……

……

Water Arrow.

"The eighth target is eliminated."

Edward crossed out another goal in his notebook.

There are twelve more.

On the endless ocean, encountering another drifting ship under normal navigation conditions is a very small probability event. However, Edward was full of energy and used his unique navigator skills to help the Demon Blade eliminate eight targets in less than two days, which can be described as miraculous.

Moreover, the Water Arrow's stealth was so well concealed that it went completely undetected by these silver ships.

At this rate, he will be able to finish the commission and head to the lighthouse in three more days.

There, he will have a bright future.

even……

It's not impossible for it to soar to great heights.

He squinted his eyes, feeling extremely pleased.

Where is the next target?

"The demon sword asked from the side."

“79度方向，航行1312海里，8小时就能到。9号目标和10号目标相差不远。”

"very good."

"Ugh!"

Edward sighed.

"Ok?"

"After completing the mission, it's time to say goodbye to Miss Demon Blade. There's a poem in your country that says, 'If you are true friends, even if you are separated by endless oceans, you are like neighbors...'"

"That's not poetry from our country..."

The demon sword remained silent for a moment.

This Edward is not only crude, but also extremely shallow in his understanding. He probably hasn't read many books, let alone classical poetry.

She thought to herself.

Just now, she received a message from Itsukushima Rin an hour ago. Itsukushima Rin instructed her not to overlook anything on the target Silver Ship, especially a nautical chart. She should also be wary of Michael's navigator.

At the same time, all people on the ship, whether crew or slaves, must be killed.

All bodies must be transported back; they must not be brought back alive or disposed of privately.

She had no objection.

She has carried out countless similar tasks.

She looked up at the sea and couldn't help but sigh. "A bosom friend afar brings a distant land near."

"The green mountains stand together under the same clouds and rain, and the bright moon has never been of two separate places."

"The ancient poems of the Dragon Kingdom are indeed worthy of being passed down through the ages. Even in today's era of wandering, they still have their timeless and fresh meanings, and their core essence remains unchanged.

"It's a pity that now only the sea remains, and I have never seen the green mountains."

……

The Water Arrow is traveling at high speed in the deep sea.

They are equipped with a large amount of energy and are not afraid of consumption.

After quickly eliminating another target, they moved on to the nearest one.

It was already sunrise.

"It looks like there's fog on the sea," Edward said. "Can you still see the sea clearly?"

The demon sword nodded.

This little bit of fog couldn't obstruct her vision.

"That's good. The Silver-class drifting ship Dinglan is deep in the fog. We are currently three nautical miles away from it as the crow flies, and it's 300 meters underwater. I'll slowly approach it in a bit, and you can check if it's your target. If not, we'll go find the next one."

"it is good."

Edward had long since grown accustomed to the Demon Blade's sparing use of words.
He slowed the Water Arrow's advance, approaching its target in the depths of the waves like a hunter crawling in the shadows.

They lurk underwater, making them undetectable by ordinary drifting boats.

Unless there is detection radar.

However, the detection radars capable of detecting them are only equipped on Gold-class drifting ships.

Silver rank? Hmph! Not worthy!

Edward hummed a little tune as he slowly steered the ship.

The demon sword's eyes were like blades, gazing intently at the sea.

The fog grew thicker and thicker.

Through the deep sea and thick fog, she could barely see anything.

"Dive 100 meters."

"okay."

You are Party A, so you have the final say.

He received a notice from his superiors instructing him to terminate his mission within two days.

He'll definitely be very angry then. Although he's not afraid, he still finds it troublesome.

Sigh, I still hope everything goes well.

There's a saying, "How can one have it all?" How can one be both beautiful and patriotic?
I forgot, I forgot.

As the Water Arrow slowly ascended, Yao Dao's vision gradually cleared.

Suddenly, her expression turned serious.
With a wave of her hand, Nai Lu Ji, the attendant beside her, came over with a picture.

The image depicts the Silver Ship, number 23333.

The demon sword glanced at it, then its eyes turned icy cold.

I found you!!!

……

a few minutes ago.

on the deck.

"Captain, the surface radar has detected an unidentified underwater object approaching! Distance: 2.88 nautical miles..."

"Oh?"

Shi Ming looked at the indicator panel of the maritime patrol radar.

The giant object possessed significant energy. It approached slowly from afar, from deep to shallow, and then hovered a hundred meters underwater not far from their location, where it ceased to move.

After its analysis capabilities were upgraded again, the maritime radar became even more powerful, capable of alerting him that it was a drifting vessel.

There were four people on the ship, three of whom possessed powerful energy and were suspected to be Awakened Ones.

He exerted force in his hand.

The sword that slays the king clangs.

"Is it finally here?"
