Chapter 133: Oncoming Strike Of The Sea King
Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
Void Ocean, Captivity Island.
The huge sea creatures cried shrilly, as the entire island was covered with them. They were of various colors and surrounded the periphery of the lonely island.
The Sea King was inside the stone castle on Captivity Island, staring at the mural on the castle wall with a serious expression.
He was certain that this was where the signal came from. Yet, he could not find the being that sent the signal, even after searching the entire island.
To his great surprise, these murals actually recorded the past of the Void Ocean’s peak of civilization, the Mu Tehai Nation.
The Sea King scanned the mural briefly, before finally laying his eyes on the blurry figure that he was worshipping.
“Mu Zhiguang!”
As the heir to the throne of the Mu Tehai Nation, how could he be unfamiliar with the nation’s savior? In the end, he was also the one who passed the throne to him.
However, these were all done against his own will, as it was the aspiration of the nation’s people. Thus, he had no choice but to heed their wishes.
This was ultimately the reason that he chose to betray the Mu Tehai Nation and establish new forces by the Void Ocean. His armies greatly increased in strength after the fall of the Mu Tehai Nation, which made him the Sea King that he was now.
These murals made the Sea King recall certain memories.
However, he was confused about something. A person who was not a descendant of the Mu Tehai clan would not have the ability to use their unique communication method. Logically speaking, the descendants of the Mu Tehai Nation should have all been turned into zombie ghosts, except for Mu Zhiguang, who had disappeared. Why did it appear again?
“Is Mu Zhiguang back?” the Sea King’s expression froze suddenly, and his heart could not help but tremble in fear at the speculation.
He knew how powerful the guy who owned the Power of Death was. His powers were godly, and if he went berserk, his power could rival a god’s power. Except for the Guardian Spirit Tao Wu who slept seabed all year long, no one else in the entire Void Ocean could go against him.
However, the Sea King thought that his theory was quite ridiculous.
That person actually traveled to the abyss of the sea to avenge his clansmen, and fought against the Dead Clan alone. Hence, he should have died long ago, and it would be impossible for him to return.
The Sea King took a deep breath to calm his troubled mind. Then, he simply turned around and promptly left.
However, the Sea King did consider the armies’ expedition this time. He could not afford to be sloppy when dealing with the matters of the Mu Tehai Nation. However, since he did not obtain any results from his investigation, he did not want to travel in vain. He jumped onto the giant whale and let out a deafening howl.
“Debt collection, to the Liuli Coast!”
Following that, the huge army of sea creatures turned around and headed for the Liuli Coast, preparing to find Cha Na and ask for Yin souls.
……
At the Liuli Coast…
Under the dazzling sunlight, the sea breeze was blowing gently. Meanwhile, the sound of waves crashing on the beach, was intertwined with the noisy cries of the seagulls. Everything in front of them was filled with tranquil beauty.
Many leisure players even put up parasols and basked in the sun, as they drank freshly squeezed fruit juice and enjoyed a wonderful holiday life.
Just then, the distant sea suddenly set off a gigantic wave, which rose continuously as it traveled toward the coast.
Countless figures of sea beasts could be seen emerging from the huge wave. The Sea King’s army was storming toward the coast menacingly.
The players who witnessed the scene on the coast were absolutely shocked.
However, the players had experiences in dealing with an invasion. This time, they managed to summon other players efficiently. Some had gone to the forum, some entered the live streaming channels, while some others started to announce on the regional channel.
Soon, a large number of players had learned about the news of the invasion at the Liuli Coast. The major guilds began to convene manpower and swarmed toward there as well.
Similarly, Lu Wu and Bei Li found out about the Sea King’s invasion and immediately directed their gaze to the Liuli Coast.
“Cha Na!” the Sea King screamed, as soon as he approached the shoreline.
This all-rounding group attack caused the words ‘Blood loss’ to appear in red above the heads of all the players on the coast.
Players who were familiar with the Sea King’s loud voice as he approached, quickly retreated and started waiting for support.
The Sea King’s roar echoed through the air again.
The Sea King was rather confused when he got closer.
He had already screamed three times, yet Cha Na had not shown up. Could he be hiding?
The Sea King did not understand what was going on. Then, he leaped from the back of the giant whale and headed toward Cha Na’s mansion.
When he reached Cha Na’s Ghost King Palace, the Sea King was completely astounded by the scene that greeted him.
In front of Cha Na’s Ghost King Palace, there was a wooden sculpture erected at its door. It was molded in the shape of Cha Na lying on the ground and sticking out his tongue to lick a pile of feces.
Most importantly, Cha Na’s expression on the wooden sculpture looked extremely happy.
The Sea King was dumbfounded, and was confused about what was going on. Could it be that Cha Na had this kind of hobby?
As the Sea King was deep in his thoughts, countless silhouettes suddenly appeared around him. They were all carrying weapons and approaching him slowly, step by step.
“Where is Cha Na?” the Sea King frowned.
“He is dead!” Wu Guoyi who was at the front, answered without hesitation.
“Dead?” the Sea King was stunned momentarily. As he glanced at the wooden sculpture again, he began to believe that it was true.
“How did he die?”
“He was beaten up and killed by us, in a ruthless way,” said a player at the back.
“Then, who is in charge of Liuli District now?”
“It would be us, of course!” the players said in complete unison.
The Sea King spread his hands apart and said, “I don’t care who’s in charge of this place. Since Cha Na is dead, you shall be the ones to pay his debts for him! The total amount is 200,000 Yin souls, when will you pay the money?”
“Are you crazy, 200,000 soul coins? Fuck you! Where is the Second Commander, bring out the Italian Artillery, I’m going to blow him up!”
“200,000 soul coins? That’s just worse than a daylight robbery! You’re as greedy as Tao Wu!”
“Where is Tong Gua? Call him over here and give him a double-wing rapid face slap warning. He should know better!”
……
The players started avidly discussing among themselves, while the Sea King’s expression started to darken.
“Does this mean all of you don’t plan to pay the money?”
“Of course, we will, but can we pay with installments?” Wu Guoyi took a step forward and said with a smile.
“Installments?” the Sea King was dumbfounded, it was his first time hearing this word. “How does an installment work?”
“We’ll give you a single soul coin every year. Since the debt is 200,000 soul coins, we’ll be able to settle the debt in 200,000 years.”
The players burst out laughing when they heard Wu Guoyi’s words, while the Sea King’s face turned red with fury.
“This means that you want to be my enemy now,” said the Sea King with a condescending sneer.
When the players heard him, they tightly gripped their weapons, preparing for an oncoming battle.
Just as a battle was about to break out, a figure walked through the crowd, stepping with the tip of his feet inward. He took a look at Cha Na’s sculpture first and froze for a few seconds. Then, he looked at the Sea King.
“Hello… Lord Sea King, what brings you here to the Liuli Coast?”
It was Tong Gua who showed up.
At this point, he had been digitized. He knew that he had an immortal body, so he greeted the Sea King calmly.
“Tong Gua?” the contempt on the Sea King’s expression started to fade.
He had heard about the prestigious Tong Gua, he was the strongest Ghost King in the Land of Beiqi besides the King of Beiqi himself. His strength cannot be underestimated, it would not be any weaker than himself.
The Sea King would have no qualms about bullying Cha Na, the Ghost General. However, he would really need to consider the risks if his opponent was Tong Gua.
“Lord Sea King, how did you have the time to visit Beiqi? Did you miss our King of Beiqi?” Tong Gua waltzed to the front of the player with an in-toeing gait.
The Sea King’s expression darkened when he heard Tong Gua mention the King of Beiqi. After all, it was no secret in Beiqi that he was insulted by the King of Beiqi before.
“Tong Gua, what are you trying to say!?”
“Nothing. To tell you the truth, Cha Na had always been an eyesore to me, so I killed him a few days ago. Now, Liuli District belongs to me. You have no opinion on this, do you?”
“Yours?”
The Sea King was surprised, but he also had an epiphany. For Tong Gua, murdering Cha Na would be an easy task.
“That’s right, it’s my territory now. Lord Sea King would not think of asking me for Yin souls, would you?”
The Sea King’s expression seemed troubled after hearing the news.
Although he had the confidence to defeat Tong Gua, both of them possessed the greatest strength of a Ghost King. Even if he won, he would have to pay a heavy price. However, it would be embarrassing if he simply left.
Meanwhile, Lu Wu and Bei Li were watching this scene intently. They broke into a cold sweat for Tong Gua, who was simply pretending, as they were afraid that his act would be exposed.
