"Hey, where are you?" Li Xiang controlled the small bubble that enveloped him and swam slowly in the deep sea.
Compared to the vast ocean, he was just an insignificant bubble. As long as these deep-sea creatures were not provoked, they would not take the initiative to attack humans, unless they were ferocious predators.
However, the points of the deep-sea creatures were generally higher than the points of the Tundra creatures. After killing some of the deep-sea creatures, Li Xiang's points jumped to 500 points, and he barely squeezed into the top 500,000.
He did not know what Baimiya was doing, but she finally replied to his message after a long time.
"You're here?"
Baimiya's voice unexpectedly sounded a little tired, not as crazy as usual. Realizing that something was wrong, Li Xiang suppressed the anger in his heart and replied to her.
"Yes, I'm going to find you now."
"The Deep Sea Prison is so big, where are you going to find me?" Baimiya sneered, but then said, "But now I think you should be able to find me easily. Did you see those tentacles that swept away the Trial Takers? "
Li Xiang glanced down and said, "Of course, it's hard to ignore such a big movement. Don't tell me you're down there."
"What do you think? Our destination is the Blue Star Ruins. How can we get there without going through the transit station? " Baimiya said unhappily. Her voice was very weak. Although it was a tease, it sounded a little like a spoiled child.
Li Xiang was stunned and said, "Don't tell me you want to say transit station …"
"Okay, cut the crap. I'll wait for you down there!"
Baimiya cut off the communication. He could tell that she was really tired, and her voice was getting more and more erratic.
Li Xiang took a deep breath and had no choice but to dive deeper. Once the Deep Sea Prison was down, it was difficult to go back up. The deeper he went, the thicker the purple color of the water. Under the light, all kinds of deep-sea plants were strange and colorful, and their attacks were much higher.
If one did not pay attention, the giant seaweed floating by the side could open its huge mouth and swallow the trial-taker in the next second. The beautiful coral turned into a spherical object covered with sharp spikes, piercing the small bubble and causing the trial-taker to fall into the deep sea, crushed into a meat patty by the water pressure in an instant.
When he was close to the strange tentacles at the bottom of the sea, Li Xiang saw the full picture of the scenery under his feet.
There was a huge cage at the bottom of the sea. It looked like a bird cage, but it was thousands of times bigger.
The cage was made of the hardest black stone, and there was a complicated magic array pattern engraved on the top of the cage. Every time the octopus in the cage, which was so huge that its end could not be seen, hit the wall of the cage, the magic array would emit a bright light and imprison the octopus.
Only the countless tentacles were allowed to reach out from the cage to hunt.
Once the tentacles reached the small bubble, they would be sent into the octopus's huge mouth at a speed that was hard to see with the naked eye.
It was easy to imagine what would happen to the Trial Takers inside.
[Deep Sea Nightmare, one of the top Deep Sea Terror Beasts, the overlord of the Deep Sea Prison, the guardian of the transit passage. Points: 99999]
Li Xiang rubbed his eyes. If he was not mistaken, this thing was worth almost 100,000 points.
What did that mean?
When they came from the Eternal Ice Plains, the Deep Sea Crawler was worth 120 points. It was almost 1,000 times the points!
This was not a creature for them to hunt at all!
With their current progress, they would barely be able to get 10,000 points in seven days, let alone 100,000. If they could kill this thing, they would basically be sitting on the throne of first place. But after a little feeling, he knew that it was not realistic.
There was a rectangular magic array below the Deep Sea Nightmare. It was more complicated than any he had seen before and had a strong confining ability. If it was not for its existence, the magic array at the top of the cage would not be able to trap this big guy.
If they had to defeat it to go to the other hunting areas, they would have to give up immediately.
Li Xiang carefully circled the cage. It took him almost ten minutes to circle the cage. The Deep Sea Nightmare was lying in the cage, its tentacles waving unconsciously. Apart from taking the initiative to hunt, it also had a fixed hunting range about 500 meters away from the cage. If they were less than 500 meters away from the cage, they would be targeted by the tentacles.
"I'm here. Where are you?" Li Xiang circled the cage but did not see Baimiya. There were a few small bubbles floating by in the distance, but none of them dared to approach the cage. They all quickly swam away, afraid of being attacked by the tentacles.
"I'm in there. I see you."
Li Xiang was stunned. He raised his head and looked into the cage. He really did see Baimiya beside the Deep Sea Nightmare. She was wearing an off-the-shoulder white shirt and super short hot pants.
She was leaning against the wall of the magic array. She was so close to the Deep Sea Nightmare, but she was not attacked.
"Come in quickly. If you get close to the safety circle, it will ask you."
Baimiya looked very weak. Her face was a little pale. It probably took her a lot of energy to get to the cage from the outside.
Li Xiang did not hesitate. With a whoosh, he rushed into the cage.
As expected, when he got close to the safety circle, he heard an ancient voice.
"Trial Taker, why are you here?"
"I want to leave this place through the passage," Li Xiang replied without hesitation.
What responded to him were two tentacles that shot at him.
Looking closer, he saw that apart from the suction cups, there were also some sharp barbs on the tentacles.
The speed of these tentacles was much faster than the Deep Sea Crawler's tail. In an instant, only afterimages were left.
"Don't let it burst your bubble. Otherwise, the water pressure will crush your body." Baimiya watched the battle and could not help but remind him.
Speed and Strength had always been Li Xiang's most confident advantage. He did not hesitate to instantiate the Four Limbs Magic Circuit. The Ghoul in his hand suddenly shot behind him. The violent scattershot drew a brilliant arc in the water, scaring the surrounding fish and prawns, causing them to flee.
The scattershot exploded. Six small water pillars produced a huge propulsion force, pushing Li Xiang's body forward again.
His own speed could reach about 38m/s in an instant, and he could maintain it for about ten seconds. With the Ghoul's propulsion force, he could reach a terrifying 50m/s in an instant. This was the speed standard of a Level-1 Magician. If his body could not withstand this speed, his impulsive acceleration would have injured his internal organs.
With a speed of 50m/s, ten seconds of acceleration, he could sprint 500 meters, and the distance between the safety circle and the cage was less than 500 meters.
He did not know what the maximum speed of the tentacles was, but under the sudden acceleration, the tentacles could not react in time. They could only watch as he broke through the barrier and plunged into the cage!
His body passed through the cage, and the protective bubble burst with a crack. The inside and outside seemed to be the same world, but in fact, there was a thin layer of film on the walls of the cage.
There was no deep sea water gushing in.
The two tentacles that were chasing after Li Xiang returned to the cage after failing to do anything.
He landed next to Baimiya. Only then did he realize that the protruding rock walls around the magic circle were more than ten meters high. These were all part of the magic circle. It was said that the magic circle was very complicated and meticulous.
Magic itself was a very delicate and detailed thing, involving every nook and cranny. This was also one of the reasons why most Magicians were great scholars. After studying these things for a long time, it was normal for them to become eccentric and reclusive.
They were the wisest among the players, and also the group of people who were the least human.
Rationality, coldness, and so on were synonyms for them. Only those who were so passionate about their research could go further on the path of magic.
Baimiya looked a little tired. She said enviously, If only I had your explosive speed, I wouldn't be in such a sorry state. I fought my way in!
On her back was the heavy sword with the names of many people engraved on it. Li Xiang noticed that it was different from the first time he saw it. Many of the names on the sword had dimmed, indicating that she had killed many people.
There were also pieces of flesh on the sword's edge. It seemed that she had really fought 300 rounds with the tentacles.
"Let's take a break first. Let me catch my breath. In a while, we'll report the hunting area, and this big guy will release the guards. We can only pass through the passage after defeating the guards, "Baimiya said, panting.
Li Xiang nodded. This was very reasonable. If they had to face the Deepsea Nightmare head-on, they might as well just kill themselves. Just the tentacles alone had almost exhausted Baimiya. How strong would the main body be?
Compared to these truly enormous creatures, he was too small. And they had all been captured by the players and bred here. The players' true enemy, the disaster, had been suppressing the human faction for thousands of years. It was obvious how terrifying the future enemies would be.
His path had only just begun.
"Here, drink this. You'll recover faster." Li Xiang took out a tube of Elemental Particle Spring Water from the black box and tossed it to her.
Baimiya caught it and opened it to take a sniff. Her expression changed slightly.
"This smell, it's not Elemental Liquid, but the amount of Elemental Substance in this is higher than the solid Elemental Substance I've seen before. How did you get this?" Baimiya hurriedly drank it in one gulp. The Elemental Particle's recovery ability was very strong. The internal injuries on her body began to slowly heal. "It can't be from that ogre nest, right?"
"Yes." Li Xiang didn't say much. He sat down cross-legged and leaned against her, closing his eyes to rest.
Observing Li Xiang up close, Baimiya was secretly shocked.
In just a short month, he had gone to the Sky Arena. Why did it feel like he was so much stronger than when he had come out of the end-of-term exam?
He must have instantiated a second magic circuit and opened up a counterweight. Now, just the three basic skills alone were enough to suppress her, and she was also born with an innate Physique!
Analyzing his experiences along the way, this kind of growth seemed very normal and very reasonable. But thinking about it carefully, when Baimiya left Houcheng, Li Xiang was still a rookie who couldn't even stop Bai Shanshan.
At that time, she was already one of the famous successors of the Bai Family's fourth branch family. She had enjoyed countless resources since she was young and had learned far more things than he had. But why did she have a feeling that if the two of them really fought, the best result she could achieve was for both of them to be seriously injured?
