Chapter 154 Cleared [Coral City] Another golden legend!
The power of this sword is extremely terrifying.
It seems that even the sea water has been divided into two, forming a vacuum zone in this deep underwater palace!
But just when the black dragon sword was about to fall on the "King".
A touch of silvery gray suddenly clung to the sword's body.
Immediately, a strong sense of stagnation was transmitted from the sword to Xia En's arm.
It was not the feeling of falling into some defensive barrier or being blocked by some move, but more like...
The black dragon sword and the time it was in were slowly moving forward. Be still!
Xia En frowned slightly.
He had guessed before that the secret power of silver gray might be related to time and space.
And now, this strong feeling of obstruction undoubtedly proved his suspicion.
——The "King" wants to freeze himself and the royal family members at the moment when the disaster strikes, and hopes to eliminate the pollution caused by coral in the future.
Just looking at it now, the "King's" attempt has probably failed.
However, this also proves...
Although this silver-gray secret power is extraordinary, it cannot completely stop time and space.
In other words, there is an upper limit to its ability to freeze time and space!
In this case, what Xia En has to do is very simple.
Find this upper limit and break it!
“I didn’t want to use the third stage...”
Xia En sighed softly in his heart, but still held the [Giant Wristwheel] in his right hand.
"Transform!"
Rumble——
A terrifying roar like thunder erupted from the inside of Xia En's body.
Immediately, under the shocked gaze of the "King", this black shadow expanded at an incredible speed, breaking through the ceiling above and standing in this silver-gray hall.
During the previous challenge to the "King", Xia En never used this transformation ability.
On the one hand, he wanted to steal a skill or two from the other strong men in the "King".
On the other hand, because the giant's body is too large, it will cause considerable damage to the palace during battle.
But today, Xia En came with the determination to clear the dungeon, so naturally he didn't care about this small detail.
Looking at the giant shadow in front of him, a hint of horror flashed in the "King's" eyes.
The pressure of this huge body and the mystery brought by the chaotic and blurry light and shadow were intertwined, making him feel frightened for a moment.
It's like...
In front of this giant, he is the challenger!
"Descendants of giants? Or some other special secret technique?"
"The King" murmured in disbelief: "Who are you?"
Xia En still didn't answer his question, but silently raised his right hand and slowly clenched it in his palm.
At the same time, veins protruded on his face, neck, and arms, as if there were horny dragons swimming inside them.
Illusive blood that should not exist is rushing, coupled with the long breath...
Blood energy that looks like an ancient dragon emerges from the body surface, and gradually gathers and condenses into a handful of blood energy. greatsword.
This giant sword is far larger than the Blood Demon Sword. It is a terrifying weapon that only giants can use!
In an instant.
The "King" felt that the atmosphere of this silver-gray hall had rapidly undergone incredible changes.
Becoming more and more solemn and solemn!
This place seems to be no longer his palace, but a sacred court of justice!
He is no longer the king here, but just a prisoner on trial!
The terrifying giant in front of him is the judge who judges his crimes!
Such a contrast not only made the "King" feel uneasy, it also made him extremely angry.
He hissed and roared: "You traitor!"
"I am the king, I am the king of the Shuton Kingdom!"
The "King" His face was twisted and ferocious, and the deformed corals began to squirm and grow from his body surface. The faces of men and women also looked extremely painful.
Then, a silver-gray halo spread outward with him as the center.
Everything shrouded by it slows down uncontrollably and stands still with the stagnant time.
Even the heavy and solid sea water around it is no exception.
The only thing still in action is the bloody giant sword that was chopped down from a height with the meaning of [Judgment]!
That terrifyingly exaggerated power, in the crudest and most direct way, broke through the upper limit of the silver-grey secret power and broke into this static time and space!
Click——!
In the dark, it seemed that some shackles were broken.
At this moment, Xia En felt that his understanding of [Judgment] had reached a whole new level.
Immediately afterwards, a crack appeared in the sea water dyed silver gray.
Crack...click...
In less than a breath, the second, third, and countless cracks began to expand outward.
In this hall, the silvery gray color of everything is rapidly disintegrating like snowflakes, and then fading away.
The same is true for the "king" on the throne.
"No...no!"
Looking at the spiderweb-like cracks on his body, the "King" opened his eyes wide and stretched out his hand, trying to grab those silver-gray fragments.
However, everything is in vain.
Those silver-gray fragments continued to flow and peel off from his body, just like sand passing through the fingers of his hands. The more he tried to hold on, the faster they passed.
As the silver-gray shell collapsed, one after another human faces woke up and opened their eyes.
"Your Majesty, where is this?"
"I, why did I become like this?"
"This is the palace? How did it become like this?" What about the kingdom? Did the civilians in the kingdom survive? ”
They observed the surrounding scenes in confusion and confusion, and were horrified by how they looked at this time.
At this moment, a girl gradually woke up from the "King's" chest.
"Father?"
The girl's doubtful voice briefly pulled the "King" back from despair, and he quickly asked with concern.
"Annie? Are you awake?"
"Father, have you succeeded? Has the kingdom been saved?"
This question is undoubtedly like a spear that pierces the heart of the "King".
Blood and tears flowed from his eyes, and he said to himself painfully and unwillingly.
"Failed...Failed...Failed..."
"I failed to save you, and I failed to save the people of the kingdom. In the end, I will do anything. Less than ”
The girl was stunned for a moment, but then she said: "Father, this is not your fault."
"I know that you have worked very hard, and you have tried every means to save our country... "
Perhaps it was because of his daughter's comfort or the feeling of approaching death that the "King's" mentality changed and he regained a little bit of humanity.
He raised his head, looked at Xia En, who was shrinking back to his normal form not far away, and murmured.
“You’re right.”
"I am just a sinner now, and it's time to wake up from this dream."
With that said, the "King" stretched out his hand to Xia En.
A silver-gray, pocket-watch-like thing separated from his body and floated in front of Xia En.
Then, the "King's" body, as bloated as sarcoma, quickly collapsed like dead mud that had lost its activity - along with the faces with different expressions.
In an instant, there was only a puddle of pale mud left on the throne.
Looking at this scene, Xia En felt a little emotional.
The reason why the capital of the Shoton Kingdom became such a coral city is because the king chose the wrong path.
But if his coralization attempt is successful, many civilians can survive the flood. Whether he is a sinner or a wise king is difficult to make easily.
However, that is not what Xia En cares about.
He picked up the silver-gray pocket watch from the sea.
A few lines of information appeared in front of me.
[A moment of time]
[Quality: Legend]
[Type: Taboo relic]
[Description: A pocket watch containing the power of time, which can freeze time for 1 second other than the holder of the pocket watch. 】
【But every time the freeze ability is used, the flow of time around the holder will slow down for a period of time. 】
【The more times it is used, the slower the time flow and the wider the scope. 】
【After using it ten times, it will enter the "eternal freeze" state, and you will be in a frozen time. 】
【Those who try to control time will eventually be controlled by time. 】
【Current number of uses: 0/10】
Golden Legend!
Xia En's eyes suddenly opened wide.
It is indeed the final BOSS of the coral dungeon that I have played for so long, and the rewards given are extraordinary!
After seeing this description clearly, Xia En's mood was a little complicated.
Is this [Flash of Time] strong?
Of course strong!
This is similar to the effect of "time stop" and has the ability to reverse the situation of the battle in any situation.
In one second, for a Mystic Pathfinder like Xia En, he can already do a lot of things.
But this negative effect of slowing down the flow of time is obviously not comparable to that of ordinary relics.
It's okay for a short period of time, but if it takes a long time, it will undoubtedly cause extremely serious consequences.
The [Eternal Freeze] after using it ten times reminded Xia En of the scene in this hall.
If he guessed correctly, the king probably wanted to use this side effect in turn to protect his daughter and other royal members.
However, it is also possible that he had already produced this terrible stagnation effect before using it for the tenth time.
“It seems that this thing can only be used at extremely critical moments.”
Afterwards, Xia En walked to the corpse in front of the throne and absorbed the [Secret Sea Crystal] from it.
[Ship Spirit Level: LV4 (73%)]
[Talent: High-speed Regeneration (Rare) → (Precious)! 】
Feeling the cool power pouring into his body, a smile appeared on the corner of Xia En's mouth.
One step closer to LV5!
And [High-speed Regeneration], the talent obtained from the coral monsters, has also reached a higher level.
Although the projected body during [Deep Sea Diving] will not be affected by injuries such as bleeding, poisoning, etc., the improvement of regeneration ability can increase the [Deep Sea Diving] time in disguise.
Not to mention, on the sea, this talent greatly enhances Xia En's endurance.
It is very useful.
However, I watched the silver-gray color in front of me fade away, turning into a normal, empty hall.
Xia En felt inexplicably disappointed.
The resolution of the boss at the end of the level means that the copy of [Coral City] has been cleared by him.
It's a bit like reading a novel or a movie. It's not really a nostalgia, but at most a little emotion.
“By the way, I have to explain this to the Queen of the Sea Tribe.”
Thinking of this, Xia En quickly swam out of the palace.
As soon as he swam out of the gate, he saw a few faint lights coming from the high water.
It was still night at this time, and the sea water seemed particularly deep and quiet.
Looking carefully, I found that several maids from the sea tribe were slowly swimming towards me holding night pearls.
Surrounded by them, the petite Queen of the Sea Tribe was trying hard to straighten her waist to make herself look taller.
Xia En took the initiative to swim up and said, "Queen, why did you come here late at night?"
Luticia looked at him with burning eyes, a hint of joy in her tone.
"Your Excellency, the envoy of the gods, asked knowingly."
"I just sensed that some kind of restriction in the palace has been broken."
"I think it must be the gods. Did you do something?”
A flash of thought flashed in Xia En’s eyes: “Is it prohibited?”
He had never understood before that why there was a ban on the sea people in the palace.
After seeing the king, Xia En had an answer in his heart.
This kind of ban is not only to protect the king and others in the palace, but also to protect the people of the Shoton Kingdom who have taken another path.
Of course, this is just Xia En’s guess.
What is the truth? Probably only the dead king knows it, right?
Now that Luticia was in front of him, Xia En simply told her about what happened in the palace.
Finally, Xia En said: "I have fulfilled the promise I made to you."
"I will probably not appear in this city again for some time."
Luticia was not surprised by this answer.
But there is still some regret in my heart.
If she were more than ten years younger, she would definitely try to keep the divine envoy with her beauty, and it would be better if she could have a few more children to expand the Sea Clan's clan.
But now...
Luticia sighed slightly and said seriously: "Mr. Divine Envoy, on behalf of the sea tribe in Coral City, thank you for everything you have done. "
"You will be our forever friend!"
"I will tell your successor, and the door of Coral City will always be open to you!"< br>
Xia En nodded in disbelief.
Who can say for sure what will happen in the future?
But at least now, his communication with this wise queen of the sea tribe is quite pleasant.
……
……
The next morning.
Xia En was walking on the streets of Luansi Islands, making the last round of purchases.
The targets of this procurement are coal, kerosene and other fuels as well as various heating devices.
After all, the next destination is [Lenglie Sea]!
You can never have too many supplies to keep warm.
After the purchase was almost complete, Xia En walked towards the port.
Along the way, I could notice the thoughtful gazes of other pirates, and several pirates volunteered to become the crew of the [Black Swan].
There are many popular people.
After the bounty was posted and Mr. Heller named him in public, Xia En was considered a somewhat famous person on the Sin Islands.
It’s just that Xia En has a higher level of vision now, and ordinary pirates really can’t catch his eye.
In addition, the current manpower of the [Black Swan] is not particularly scarce.
Xia En did not recruit new crew members rashly.
Just when Xia En came to the port, an uninvited guest walked behind him.
"Captain Shane, please stay."
