Chapter 537: Chapter 0537: Storm (Seeking Subscription)
At the bottom of the deep sea.
The ship disappeared, and a fight was about to break out between the occupational persons and the sea beasts.
The physical abilities of the fifth-level professionals received a great boost, and they had no problem breathing underwater for a short while.
Observing coldly, Su Lu noticed numerous fascinating abilities.
For example, the Phoenix Girl who could evoke flames underwater, the Martial King’s Martial Way embodiment, and the psychic attacks of the Telekineticist, among others…
Those with pure melee professions alone were awkward, because the damage they caused was trivial compared to the massive physique of the sea beasts.
Unless they underwent a qualitative change like the Thunder God.
“Fortunately… Beast Emperors the size of that turtle that’s blocking the way ahead are rare.”
Su Lu casually summoned a group of spiritual bodies, attacking several fierce sharks in front of him, just to please himself.
Meanwhile, the professor and Zi were using the ‘mental network’ to create a connection between each higher-level occupation person, to offer supplementary support.
“Pay attention… those who are injured or can’t hold on any longer, let me know, you may take a short rest in my blessed land.”
Han Fan moved through the water on his sword with a nonchalant demeanor, looking really comfortable and elegant, speaking in the mental network.
However, his rescue efforts encountered trouble.
The Ocean Beast Emperors were extremely crazy, directly opening their mouths to swallow the occupational persons, not fearing the fact that their prey would cause trouble in their stomachs, and were completely willing to die together.
“It seems that the information was incorrect.”
Su Lu sighed in the mental network: “If the relationship between these Emperors and the Surfing Fishman were simply one of worship and being worshipped, how could they be so united, willing to sacrifice their lives? This is nothing but manipulation! Complete mental manipulation!”
“Perhaps… we all underestimated the Surfing Fishman?”
Zi’s heart sank as she realized that the entire world had underestimated the Fish People race.
Their civilization might be primitive, brutal and ignorant, but it possessed a unique, mysterious advantage.
Whether it was this ambush or the way the Beast Emperors were manipulated into sacrificing themselves, both made it clear.
This race had the potential to be the ocean overlords!
For humans, it’s nothing but disastrous news!
“Although I’d like to continue, I can’t help but say, our plan has completely failed. We should retreat.”
Tony sighed in the mental network.
Even he was somewhat injured after being besieged by so many ocean-beasts beneath the sea.
If they don’t escape now, they might be in danger of falling!
“Actually… there’s one last way .”
At this point, Su Lu spoke: “If you trust me, I can teleport three to five people directly to the palace where the King of the Fish People is.”
“What? Space teleportation? You can bring people too?” Zi’s voice was a bit distorted: “Why didn’t you say it earlier?”
“You didn’t ask.” Su Lu’s reply was as nonchalant as ever, and it almost infuriated Zi to death.
“If that’s the case, I suggest taking Tony and Han Fan, as well as a scout and a healer…” The professor also joined the discussion at this time.
But just then, the most massive sea island turtle, which had been as still as a mountain, finally launched its attack!
Opened its mouth, a large vortex directly formed on the seafloor, devouring everything like a black hole.
Many occupational persons were caught off guard and swallowed into its stomach. The outlook was not good.
“Let’s go!”
Su Lu grabbed the shoulders of Tony and Han Fan, with two other people attached to him, and disappeared in an instant.
…
Inside the Fish People Palace.
The flickering dimension fluctuations, several figures emerged.
It was Su Lu along with Zi, Han Fan, Tony, and Gill!
“This… group teleportation?” Gill’s eyes were sparkling: “Teacher… can you teach me?”
“This is my ace.”
Su Lu rolled his eyes, rejecting him as usual.
Han Fan felt a slight sense of dread, then looked around: “This is where the Mermaid King resides? There’s actually a palace?”
“Bai Jing! Go back… Rescue the others now!” Zi stared at Su Lu, her tone in the mental network was extremely rushed.
“Sorry… It takes time to activate my ability, and it’s even more exhausting to teleport with people…” Su Lu shrugged his shoulders, appearing helpless.
This part was true.
After all, in this world, he didn’t have the [Dimensional Walker] skill, he needed to coordinate through the Spirit Communication Skill and the ritual, which increased the difficulty considerably.
Also, letting the monsters and occupational persons to mutually annihilate each other, reducing the number of high-tier threats, did have certain benefits in reducing future ‘variables’.
“You…”
Zi, red in the face with anger: “Superior and Xiao Dang are still there… Bai Jing, why did you hide your abilities before?”
The thing she hated most was this.
If she had known his teleporting capability earlier, why did people have to suffer the hardship of travelling by ship?
Couldn’t they just open a space door directly? Wouldn’t that have solved everything?
“Mrs. Zi, please watch your tone, why should I be frank about all my abilities?” Su Lu snorts: “And… is this how you treat the one who saved your life?”
In fact, if it weren’t for a whim, he wouldn’t have come this time, and would have just stayed in the academy like a salted fish.
“Cough cough… What’s done is done, it’s meaningless to dwell on these things now.”
Gill glanced at Su Lu: “The rest of the people are all strong, they should be able to escape on their own… right?”
“Yes, and I think you have your focus wrong. Aren’t you going to kill the King of the Fish People now? Do you want the previous sacrifices to be in vain? You should know… Most of the Beast Emperors have been sent out, the defenses of the palace are at an unprecedented low level.”
Su Lu pointed to the palace.
Because of their mental linkage, their discussion progressed swiftly.
Only now did a patrol group of Fish People discover them, screeching and pouncing over.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
A white light flashed past, piercing through the weak points like the hearts of these Fish People, and flew back into Han Fan’s hand: “The strength isn’t strong… They’re probably second or third-level, indeed… there’s not a better chance than right now.”
“The mission continues!”
Zi certainly knew that, compared to the crisis facing humanity, any sacrifice was insignificant.
At this moment, she put down all her mixed feelings completely, and glanced coldly at the panicked Fish People, who were like frantic beasts: “Fear!”
A large number of Fish People preparing to surround them were instantly thrown into chaos, even viciously attacking each other.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the five of them rushed into the palace.
Under the marble dome, the entire hall was extremely empty, only a throne, and a Fish Person with golden scales.
Seeing a group of people rushing in, it was clearly more surprised, but not frightened.
“Storm!”
A single word came out from the golden Fish Person’s mouth. Although it was hoarse and scratchy, and not an earthly language, you could understand its meaning.
Whoo! Whoo!
The next moment, a tornado formed directly in the palace.
The marble roof was lifted off, terrifying whirlwind even burst out of the sea surface, forming a remarkable scene of a ‘dragon sucking water’!
