The encounters in life were always unpredictable. When the naga girl took the initiative to accept the sea sacrifice imprint, she was already prepared for the sacrifice of death. She didn't expect so many things to happen later. Perhaps from the moment she met the "Aguile" brought back by her sister Strena, the trajectory of the wheel of fate began to change.
Chen Rui also didn't expect that Adeline would undergo such a strange change after using the resurrection potion to be reborn. It should be because a considerable part of the power of the mirage's [Illusion Kingdom] remained in the naga girl's body. The advantage was that the girl suddenly had a huge spirit power. She could control the mist of the entire Hidden Misty Island and even create a powerful illusion like the mirage. Of course, she was not proficient yet. The disadvantage was that Adeline was affected by some special power and couldn't leave the Hidden Misty Island. Even if she had the soul body that the mirage wanted to use to get rid of the imprisonment, this should be the sequelae of the failure of the fusion. While inheriting the "property", she also inherited the "debt".
Adeline was not depressed. After experiencing the test of life and death, the naga girl seemed to have grown up a lot suddenly. Nothing was more important than helping "Aguile" get out of danger and saving the lives of her sister and companions.
"Don't worry, there must be a way."
From the previous encounter of King Octopus, Chen Rui could guess that the mirage and Red Centipede were imprisoned here by the Dark Dragon Emperor to guard the treasure. There must be a way to lift the imprisonment in the Dragon Emperor's treasure.
Seeing Chen Rui's determined eyes, Adeline lowered her head and nodded slightly. She felt a lot more at ease.
"Now that you have become the new master of the Hidden Misty Island, the illusion control of the naga and elementals should be lifted right?" Chen Rui knew that Adeline had a kind of shyness in her heart, so he spoke to resolve the awkward atmosphere. In fact, in his heart, the naga girl was a sister who needed to be protected, so he didn't have any extra thoughts.
As expected, at the mention of this, Adeline's expression seemed natural. She replied, "Those people and elementals have broken free from the illusion. They will be fine after a day of rest. The Hidden Misty Sea Area is the Nether Sea area, also known as the 'dead sea'. Unfortunately, there is no more news about the dead sea in the memory I got."
The name "Dead Sea" reminded Chen Rui of the "saltwater lake" in another world that couldn't drown people to death. However, it was obvious that the "Dead Sea" here was definitely a land of death filled with threats.
Adeline looked up at the misty sky in the distance. "I feel something strange approaching the Hidden Misty Island from the east."
In the air? Chen Rui raised his eyebrows. Perhaps it is the Royal Highness King who threatened not to wait for me. Come to think of it, the Dark Elemental King really came at the right time. After everything was done, he just appeared.
Chen Rui's guess was right. It was the Dark Elemental King, Hegel, who came, but Hegel looked very embarrassed. The airship was damaged, and many of his dark elementals were also killed. Seeing that Chen Rui was waiting for him on the Hidden Misty Island and saw his embarrassed appearance, Hegel's heart was quite upset.
Hegel was attacked by a large number of powerful flying sea beasts in the air, and he was caught in a bitter battle. He almost couldn't reach here. The result of the battle of the Hidden Misty Island also made Hegel feel unbelievable. The last time he stopped here, he was defeated by the [Illusion Kingdom] cast by the mirage hidden in the dark. Now, "Aguile" and the others actually defeated the hidden powerhouse. It is really inconceivable. No matter what method it is, a victory is a victory. They can safely pass the Hidden Misty Island. Regardless of luck or strength, it is better than my last exploration. Hegel had to admit this.
After asking about what happened before from the dark elementals who traveled with Chen Rui, the Dark Elemental King was silent for a moment, and he said, "I want to thank you for not giving up these dark elementals at the most dangerous moment. Although the hatred between us can't be resolved, I can promise in the name of the dark elementals that I will not retaliate against you in any form in the entire Dead Sea."
It turns out that you still want to cheat me while looking for the fragment! Chen Rui despised Hegel a few times in his heart and shrugged, "If the origin fragment of the dark element is not in the Hidden Misty Island, then we must continue to move forward. Now we only know that the next stop is called the Nether Sea, and there seems to be a powerful enemy. We don't know anything else. Does Your Highness Hegel plan to continue to move forward by airship?"
"The location of the origin fragment of the dark element should be in the depths of the Nether Sea, but my airship is no longer usable." The Dark Elemental King frowned, "I still have a ship. Together with the dark elementals you saved, we can reorganize into 3 ships. We must break through this obstacle."
Chen Rui thought for a while and said, "To be honest, Your Highness, I have a treasure map in my hand. It marks the location of the Dark Dragon Emperor's treasure hundreds of thousands of years ago. It is likely to be the same goal as the origin fragment you are looking for. It is also related to my 2 friends …"
At this point, the Dragon Emperor's treasure definitely couldn't be hidden from Hegel, so it was better to be honest. Especially after hearing Hegel's words just now, Chen Rui had faintly grasped some of the Dark Elemental King's character.
Sure enough, Hegel interrupted him disdainfully, "Treasure? It's nothing more than money or treasure. What a foolish and ignorant value! Don't you know that only your own power is the greatest wealth in this world? The flashy fame and fortune you pursue are simply worthless in the eyes of the Elemental King! I only want the origin fragment of the dark element, and I don't want anything else. If the 2 are not together, then I will not help you find the so-called treasure. "
"Of course! As for the treasure … As Your Highness King said, we just have different values. Let's make a deal then. " Chen Rui did not explain too much. He said to Strena, "You stay and take care of Adeline. I will find a way to eliminate her imprisonment."
Strena pondered for a moment, and she asked Chen Rui sternly, "After this is over, do you plan to take her away?"
"If she is willing." Chen Rui looked at the naga girl, "To be honest, she is not suitable for fighting, even if she gets the power of the mirage. Besides, I have given her a promise and hope. It will definitely come true."
Strena took a deep look at Chen Rui, "Thank you. Then, I will go to the Nether Sea with you not only to help you find the treasure, but also for the fate of the naga tribe. As for Adeline … I believe in her. She can take care of herself, even if she is alone. "
Adeline nodded to her sister. In fact, with her current ability, although she could not skillfully manipulate the illusion power left by the mirage, there should be no problem for her to protect herself on this Hidden Misty Island.
"Then … rest for 2 days first, then …" After the arrangements were made, Chen Rui, who had been resisting his exhaustion, could no longer control the sequelae of the [Royal Star Transformation]. He swayed and fell down. He was caught by Strena who was quick to react.
Strena immediately picked up Chen Rui. She suddenly thought of something and glanced at Adeline with a strange expression. She happened to meet her sister's knowing smile. The female naga warrior inexplicably calmed down. She carried Chen Rui, who had fallen into a deep sleep, toward the camp.
2 days later, the Devil's Snare Ship left the Hidden Misty Island with 3 large black ships. Under the control of Adeline, the mist in front of the fleet disappeared without a trace. The journey was unimpeded.
Strena didn't look at her sister who waved goodbye on the shore. She just looked down at the scimitar in her hand. This was the new weapon given to her by Chen Rui. It was enough to withstand the killer move of the [Flame Blade]. The mirror-like surface of the scimitar reflected the slightly red eyes of the female naga warrior.
A few days later, the 4 ships left the Hidden Misty Sea that was shrouded in mist and entered the Nether Sea that Adeline mentioned. The color of the sea here was darker. At first glance, it looked like black, giving people a terrifying feeling.
The weather in the Nether Sea was very bad. It was full of hurricanes, thunder, and rainstorms. It was completely different from the Hidden Misty Sea ahead as if they were 2 different worlds.
The main body of the Dark Elemental King's ship was made of a kind of dark crystal with various strange effects. It should be some kind of crystal associated with the dark elementals. Chen Rui visually estimated that the value of this kind of crystal was by no means less than the expensive gold crystal. It might even be more valuable. These 3 ships alone are invaluable. No wonder the King Royal Highness doesn't like the "flashy" treasure.
"Look! What is that? "
This was already the 3rd day of entering the Nether Sea. The fleet finally encountered … a ship.
The speed of the fleet gradually slowed down. With the eyesight of Chen Rui and Hegel, they could already see the appearance of the ship clearly. Its appearance was relatively old. There seemed to be no one on the ship. It looked lifeless.
Strena noticed that the color of the water here was darker. It was impossible to see the situation in the water at all. Even the perception power couldn't penetrate deep.
"Go over and take a look!" Hegel's voice reached the Devil's Snare Ship. The 4 ships formed a semi-encirclement and gradually approached the ship.
When approaching the ship, the weaker nagas on the Devil's Snare Ship all had an illusion as if an invisible pair of eyes were staring at them out of thin air. They couldn't help but feel a chill on their backs. A strange sense of fear spread from their hearts.
That fear was quickly dispelled. Hegel's voice sounded, "Hmph! Reckless thing, you actually dare to show [Terror] in front of the dark elementals! Fire the cannons. No matter what it is, blast it into pieces! "
The 3 black ships launched cannons at the same time. The ship was riddled with holes and quickly sank into the sea.
"Full rudder left! Quick! "Chen Rui suddenly shouted," Hegel! Be careful of the water! "
Almost at the same time, a few huge things suddenly emerged from the water without warning. A black ship of the Dark Elemental King couldn't dodge in time, and the entire hull was overturned by the things that emerged. Fortunately, the ship of the dark elementals was extraordinary. It actually flew obliquely in the air for a while, and it landed steadily on the water, but the crew members on it had already fallen. Some even fell into the water.
Those things that emerged were actually large ships. After emerging from the water, the side cannons on both sides of these ships began to drain quickly. These ships were covered with seaweed and other foreign objects as if they had sunk to the bottom of the sea for many years and were awakened by Hegel's cannons!
The ship was no longer empty. After seeing the crew members clearly, Chen Rui's eyes flashed with surprise. He finally understood the meaning of Octopus King's sentence "not afraid of death". No wonder it is also called the "dead sea". It turns out that these crew members are all undead creatures without exception!
Ship of the undead!
