Ocean Lords: Start Harvesting Double from Dice Rolls-Chapter 559 - 290: A Special Epiphany, Road to the Peak (2)
His perception was like precise spatial anchors; once they landed on the enemy, no matter how the enemy dodged, the bullets could perform a spatial transition and land precisely on the enemy.
The mastery of energy was thanks to Xu Yuan, the owner of the black market cargo ship, who used Blue Blood Wine to push Fang Yu into a near-death state.
In that near-death state, his life instincts were fully activated, and Fang Yu’s control over his abilities soared. Even when the Stacked Energy Bullet increased in power with each shot, Fang Yu could ignore it.
Now... Fang Yu could deliver the highest damage with the first shot or maintain consistent power in his shots.
It all depended on the strength of the opponent and Fang Yu’s allocation of energy reserves within his body.
So at this moment, Fang Yu increasingly didn’t resemble the tech-skill-oriented Blue Star Captain, but rather an indigenous inhabitant who had been trained in a power system since childhood, accumulating solid fundamentals.
His control over extraordinary powers grew increasingly proficient and natural.
"Interesting!"
Fang Yu gradually immersed himself in a special kind of insight.
At this moment, even without Ma’s Brain Domain Sharing, Fang Yu seemingly perceived everything around his body.
A Blade Fish with reddened eyes was slicing its way toward him.
A few more Blade Fish were preparing to attack him from below and dismantle his shield.
In the distance, a more robust Blade Fish was silently swimming his way...
It was as if he had grown a pair of 360-degree vision eyes; every strand of his perception extended outward, transforming into threads, precisely locking onto one of the Blade Fish.
"Bang!"
The next moment, the bullet burst forth, following this strand of "thread," and landed with extreme precision on that Blade Fish.
A muffled sound echoed.
Under the sea, a cloud of blood mist appeared.
"Congratulations, Captain, on killing a Blade Fish..."
A voice came from the panel in his mind, but Fang Yu remained oblivious, still immersed in this special state.
The pistol in his hand kept unleashing power, as if it had infinite bullets, firing frantically.
At the same time, Fang Yu seemed to become more acutely aware of the water flow.
No... it wasn’t "seemed"—he indeed felt the water flow more clearly!
Every stream of water brushed against Fang Yu’s skin, the icy touch, and the ripples formed by the water’s movement.
Increasingly clear, increasingly graspable.
"Whiz!"
At this moment, one by one, the Blade Fish launched into action, attacking Fang Yu at a terrifying speed.
The blades on their backs emitted a chilling gleam, sharply aiming to cut through Fang Yu’s shield.
This was no less than hundreds or even thousands of Blade Fish!
Attacking as one, it was like someone tossing bait into a fishpond, causing countless sea fish to swarm a single spot.
Overwhelmingly, almost filling the entire area.
Fang Yu... at this moment, was the "bait" these Blade Fish craved!
They sensed the power-filled blood and flesh in this human, and how exquisite it was.
If they could devour this human’s flesh, the sea fish would evolve again, growing bigger and stronger.
The creature’s instincts, along with the Lanyun army’s training, drove these Blade Fish to swarm in, ready to chop Fang Yu into countless pieces.
But at this moment, Fang Yu moved!
His body assumed an extremely soft posture, as if becoming part of the water flow, fully merging into it.
"Whiz!"
A few Blade Fish struck instantly but found nothing.
Fang Yu managed to locate a perfect evasion space amidst the attacking Blade Fish and subsequently dodged their attack through this gap.
"Whiz! Whiz!"
Several more Blade Fish charged over; Fang Yu was already hitting his stride. He vaguely comprehended something but felt it was like flowers in a dream, or moon reflections in water, elusive.
Relying on a sudden subconscious awareness, Fang Yu once again easily evaded another wave of attacks and quickly fired eight bullets, killing eight Blade Fish on the spot.
"Marvelous... marvelous..."
Fang Yu felt a marvel coursing through his heart.
This feeling was indescribable; each time he tried to grasp it, it seemed to slip through his fingers.
"Space... water flow..."
Fang Yu muttered, his gaze focused on the constantly approaching Blade Fish. At this moment, the Blade Fish didn’t seem like terrifying extraordinary beings.
Instead, they were particles in motion.
They formed a constantly moving space, and the seawater seemed like a substance binding Fang Yu within this space.
Perhaps... what he should do isn’t escape bindings, but merge with the matter and space... that is, merge with the seawater!
Fang Yu’s form moved again, becoming even more gentle. At this moment, Fang Yu’s thoughts and consciousness seemed to meld into the seawater, transforming him into a part of nature.
He recognized what he had neglected all along as the Blue Star Captain.
He began to view this world as his own mother in the way of an indigenous person.
Just as with his attachment and belonging to Blue Star, he began to feel a sense of belonging and attachment to this world.
"Boom!"
For some reason, Fang Yu felt some changes on his body; he seemed to feel...
This world... accepted him?
And at this moment, both his soul and consciousness seemed to undergo subtle changes.
He felt the seawater become more real, the air softer, and his perception of the Law more distinct.
Gradually, Fang Yu seemed to see a path, becoming clearer from indistinctness.
Following this path, Fang Yu saw powerful figures rising from the historical progress, walking tirelessly along it.
They eventually reached the end, standing at the summit.
But also fell from the summit due to discord with the world.
"The Path to the Summit?!"
Fang Yu’s pupils contracted suddenly, realizing what this path truly was, and what the key to stepping onto it was:
Merging with the world, fusing into the world, naturally reaching the summit.
Thinking of this, Fang Yu felt overwhelmed with excitement; he instinctively wanted to step forward.
But just as he prepared to step, to raise his leg,
Suddenly his essence energy was wildly consumed; a large amount of energy coursed out of his body, spent on this mere lifting leg effort.
Even... before he could take the first step, his essence energy was already eighty percent consumed.
This sudden change was like a basin of cold water, dousing Fang Yu, snapping him back from the special state.
"Whiz, whiz, whiz!"
At this moment, Fang Yu returned to reality, having to continue facing the danger in front of him: nearly a thousand Blade Fish!
Moreover, what weighed even more on Fang Yu’s mind...
He had just indulged in illusions, held thoughts mismatched to his level, resulting in his essence energy being considerably consumed in that brief moment, leaving him weary and depleted.
Realizing this, Fang Yu didn’t hesitate, pulling out a Scroll.
"Goo-gwa!"
A toad instantly materialized through the Scroll’s power.
Standing in front of Fang Yu, it swallowed the charging Blade Fish into its belly.
Fang Yu dared not linger in battle; it was his last toad-summoning Scroll, and the Toad Scroll only had the power to block attacks and trap the enemy, not kill them.
The Blade Fish swallowed into the belly were only temporarily trapped within the toad. Once the toad dissipated, these Blade Fish would break the confinement again, continuing their assault on Fang Yu.
Additionally, he still had the nearing battle with five Extraordinary Ships, Fang Yu didn’t want to burn through his trump cards here.
The urgent task was to quickly head to the shore, consume Potion to restore energy, adjust his state, and escape the perilous situation!
With this thought, Fang Yu accelerated his swimming speed, moving swiftly towards the southeast side of Ye Qingdao, disregarding the consumption of Secret Treasures.
Finally, before the Toad Scroll exhausted the last ounce of power, Fang Yu successfully escaped the Blade Fish swarm’s pursuit and landed on Ye Qingdao.
He dared not be negligent, immediately finding a safe and hidden spot, taking out an Intermediate Potion, and gulping it down in one go...
