The Snake-Scaled Woman stood nervously to the side. At this moment, she no longer had the overbearing demeanor from before, and instead, had transformed from a predator into a timid prey.

Chen Feng had obtained everything he wanted.

The Snake-Scaled Woman, the dead man, and the beasts on the warship were the left and right arms of the Ghost Shark. It could be said that they were the ones who constructed the pyramid of the Ghost Shark’s power.

But who could have predicted? 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

The pyramid that the Ghost Shark had spent nearly a year building crumbled instantly upon encountering Chen Feng. At this time, he was practically a solitary commander, without a single subordinate.

Chen Feng guessed correctly. The Ghost Shark indeed possessed Golden Tier strength. Compared to some previous confessions, because the Snake-Scaled Woman was a trusted aide, she revealed quite a few secrets.

The Ghost Shark’s bloodthirstiness was confirmed. Not only did it resemble a shark in appearance, but its temperament was also no different from that of such a monster. It loved devouring fresh flesh, and the Snake-Scaled Woman had witnessed the scene of it biting prey to death, then consuming it, more than once.

Besides this, the beast under its command also had extraordinary strength. This beast appeared like a turtle, but its body was incredibly huge. Even at the ocean floor, it was an undisputed overlord. For some reason, it had actually submitted to the Ghost Shark and was willing to be commanded by it.

Chen Feng remained silent.

In this world, there are too many inexplicable things.

To some people, the apocalypse is not only not painful, but rather an opportunity for rise. These people are born with great luck. For example, apart from having astonishing strength, the Ghost Shark could even make deep-sea monsters bow and submit. If not for Chen Feng, the Ghost Shark’s future would have been limitless.

This is not the only example.

In distant lands, a woman was even favored by Giant Dragons. These greedy, powerful dragons were willing to fight and serve her.

[Dragon Mother]

This is her name.

This world is full of too many adventures, like a game. While you’re fighting small minions that only drop whiteboard weapons, others playing the same game might defeat an enemy that drops a priceless orange item.

Luck?

You can’t compare!

As the Snake-Scaled Woman said, the Ghost Shark didn’t need to personally subdue them. Just sitting in its territory, the monster seemed to sense its presence, crossed the sea surface, and chose to submit.

Unlike Chen Feng, who had reached this point entirely by fighting fiercely, eliminating powerful enemies, and obtaining significant offerings to gain the power to protect himself.

As anticipated.

Chen Feng did not look panicked in the slightest. Even if the monster under the Ghost Shark’s command was Golden Tier, it still didn’t change anything. The Bottom-dwelling Demon Fish wasn’t to be trifled with either.

In battle, the Bottom-dwelling Demon Fish could also unleash formidable power in water.

A formidable enemy worth noting.

Chen Feng was never one to take a beating passively, especially when he had many aces up his sleeve. What he needed to do now was to take advantage of his victory to launch a huge counterattack.

Having thought everything through, Chen Feng turned his gaze to the Snake-Scaled Woman. She was a woman who appeared around thirty, her body covered with snake scales. Her abilities were rather complex. When necessary, she could melt her bones and squeeze through a hole the size of a bowl.

Moreover, she had a natural affinity with snakes. When encountering mutated snake monsters, she could avoid a battle, even if she couldn’t tame them.

Compared to combat-oriented professionals, the Snake-Scaled Woman’s abilities were more supportive in nature.

Chen Feng pointed his longsword at her neck. The Snake-Scaled Woman immediately felt a searing heat, but she didn’t dare dodge and could only grit her teeth, enduring this with difficulty.

She dared not.

Afraid that any excess movement would spark Chen Feng’s killing intent.

The enemy before her was even more ruthless than the Ghost Shark. To describe it, the latter was like a thoughtless beast, falling asleep in a lair after satisfying its desires, while the enemy before her was like a winged Giant Dragon, greedy yet possessing the ability to think, an intimidating force that could overwhelm others with its presence.

"What about you, submission or death?"

Chen Feng stared at her. Though the Snake-Scaled Woman’s strength wasn’t obvious, her abilities were quite mystical. Keeping her around might serve other purposes.

Under such circumstances, how could the Snake-Scaled Woman dare oppose? She hurriedly nodded, speaking up, "I am willing to submit to you... Please don’t kill me... I beg you, don’t kill me..."

The stronger the power, the more they fear death.

Unlike ordinary people, people like the Snake-Scaled Woman had long enjoyed the benefits brought by power. Presented with the choice between loyalty and life, she chose life without hesitation.

"Alright, go prepare. When the counterattack starts, you will gain control of a warship. I hope you won’t disappoint me!" Chen Feng spoke with a relaxed expression.

Driving someone mad is easy.

After questioning a few captives, Chen Feng analyzed the Ghost Shark’s character. Perhaps due to its abilities, the Ghost Shark was quite irritable, where even minor mistakes could trigger its wrath. It’s said that during a frenzy, the Ghost Shark would enter a period of temporary mindlessness.

Order cannot withstand being threatened.

Upon learning there was a powerful force nearby, Chen Feng had never considered shaking hands and making peace. It was like raising venomous creatures; only one could emerge victorious in the end.

To win, Chen Feng didn’t hesitate to use some special tactics.

If the complete destruction of the warships was merely a fuse, then the betrayal from a former trusted aide would drive the Ghost Shark into a full-blown rampage. Compared to a thinking enemy, Chen Feng felt that a mindless beast was somewhat easier to handle.

This was a conspiracy targeting the Ghost Shark.

As for whether the Snake-Scaled Woman would defect at the last moment, Chen Feng didn’t care. In battle, he would position an Inferior Demon closely with her. Should she make any reckless move, the Inferior Demon would obliterate her, erasing her existence from this world completely.

Of course, having experienced so much, he believed she would make the right choice rather than foolishly find her own demise.

The Snake-Scaled Woman swallowed nervously. She didn’t know what Chen Feng’s purpose was for allowing her to command a warship, but she still nodded vigorously.

This was a wise person.

No need to think, just obey.

As for that fool...

Chen Feng shifted his gaze to the corpse from earlier, a chilling glint flashing in his eyes. Including the beast’s corpse from before, he now had two Silver Peak corpses. With the great battle approaching, he would use their bodies as offerings for summoning some valuable allies!
