Chapter 68 Fish in the Tank

[After 3 seconds of growth, the attributes of the floating fish in the tank have changed subtly - Strength: 4→6; Agility: 4→6; Intelligence: 0→0]

"This attribute is so fucking terrifying!"

Anson Lu took a deep breath and completely changed his opinion of this epic chess piece.

The floating fish in the tank are not fully grown yet, and cannot fight or change their position. Once the fish tank is broken, it will be completely useless.

Therefore, if Anson Deer wants to wait for it to 'hatch', he must guard it by any means necessary within these 20 seconds.

This will inevitably come at a great cost, such as sacrificing many chess pieces.

But behind this high-risk and high-investment, there are irresistible benefits - the floating fish in the tank will grow every second, and each growth will increase 2 points of strength and 2 points of agility!

This also means that - within 20 seconds, after the floating fish in the tank goes through a complete growth cycle, it will have at least 40 points of strength and 40 points of agility!

You know, Anson Deer’s strongest trump card before, the Queen’s Statue, only had 18 points of agility after it was upgraded to level 2.

Even after being strengthened by Xiao V, she is still far from being able to reach the attributes of the Floating Shark.

Not far away, the scarlet dragon was dealing with the pirate captain.

Asuka Uesugi seemed to be extremely angry. After realizing that she could not defeat the pirate captain by brute force, she still insisted on confronting him head-on with brute force.

As a result, they were defeated step by step.

The pirate captain used his silver sword and musket alternately to continuously repel the savage red dragon, while at the same time cutting hideous wounds on its body.

[NO.1——Uesugi Asuka (Scarlet Dragon Wing): Damage accounts for 5%]

[NO.2——Anson Deer (former chess player): damage accounted for 0% (AFK detection in progress)]

"Asuka, are you okay?" Anson Deer shouted at the Red Dragon's back, "Don't mess around. If you can't win by head-on, just use the circumvention method! Just help me buy time!"

“It’s so noisy!”

The red dragon let out a hoarse roar, and its sound was just like the ringing of the church bells. The entire deck trembled, and the floating fish in the fish tank were startled and jumped up and down wildly.

[After 5 seconds of growth, the attributes of the floating fish in the tank have changed subtly - Strength: 8→10; Agility: 8→10; Intelligence: 0→0]

"Oh my god..." Anson Lu scratched his ear, "Is it really necessary to be so fierce? Forget it, I won't slack off anymore."

At this time, the Bishop statue had changed the target of its treatment.

Because the two wounded, the knight statue and the soldier statue, have recovered to 100% of their normal condition, and the only one injured on the battlefield is Asuka Uesugi.

“Clang!!!”

The silver knife swung and slashed, making a violent sound.

“Bang!!”

The gunpowder exploded, sending out violent sonic waves.

The flashes of swords and flames splashed on the deck of the pirate ship. The red young dragon was helpless and furious, roaring at the top of its lungs, and the deafening dragon roar echoed throughout the deck.

"hiss--"

Steam continued to emerge from the gaps between the dragon's scales. At this moment, the body of the scarlet beast was covered with scars, and its proud long wings were torn horribly.

If it weren't for the bishop statue healing her from a distance, and the regenerative power of the Scarlet Dragon Wing Sequence, Asuka might have been a corpse by now.

The strength of this Boss was far beyond her imagination.

Moreover, the opponent's offensive was as compact and fierce as a rising tide. With a musket in the left hand and a silver knife in the right hand, they attacked alternately, leaving no chance for the opponent to breathe!

Anson Lu imagined that the resistance of Uesugi Asuka's sequence was really exaggerated - the scene in front of him was like it was fighting against the ghost general in the Hokkaido dungeon, and it took all three consecutive hits of the ghost general and survived...

But even though she is not dead, if Asuka Uesugi continues to hold on, it will be really over.

"Uesugi Asuka, I'll buy you some time, you should quickly distance yourself from it, or you'll die if you keep fighting like this!" Anson Deer shouted:

"Hurry up, I'm going to use my ultimate move!"

The red dragon's stern eyes reflected the pirate captain who was attacking with a silver knife and a musket. It roared hoarsely, and the sound was transmitted towards Anson Deer.

"It's moving too fast. If I'm not careful I'll die. I can't get away from it at all!"

At this moment, the pirate captain stepped forward with a machete in hand. His huge figure, nearly three meters tall, was no less powerful than the seven-foot mad dragon, but even more so in momentum.

"Bang!"

Asuka Uesugi used her claws to block the machete, but her body retreated several meters. Just as she blocked the machete, a strong flame burst out from the muzzle of the musket, destroying her left wing!

"roar--"

The red dragon roared. Its strength was becoming weaker and weaker. If it continued like this, it would completely lose the chance of winning.

"You will regret this..."

The pirate captain grinned and roared in anger.

"My minions, they have already died for me once, but they still transformed into ghosts to accompany me. But you made them die a second time!"

The red dragon bared its fangs and said disdainfully, "Idiot."

The pirate captain grinned and approached the weak red dragon again.

"It's okay, Asuka, just keep your distance from it, and leave the rest to me!" Anson Lu said, "Queen Statue, use your skill on the pirate captain - Hundred Man Kill!"

The stone statue of the queen bent slightly, grasped the dagger tightly, and disappeared on the spot. At this moment, an adaptive weapon beast - Little V - was attached to her dagger.

“Huff—”

Just as the pirate captain was about to launch a new round of attack on the red dragon, the statue of the queen instantly moved behind him.

You know, even Anson Deer's all-round vision couldn't capture the queen's figure, let alone the pirate captain who was unprepared at the time, so he naturally couldn't react.

"What!"

The pirate captain's eyes widened, and he only noticed a cold wind whistling behind him.

The stone statue of the queen swung the pitch-black dagger and violently slashed at the back of the captain's neck, and the 'V' pattern shone brightly in the morning light.

“Puff——”

Blood spurted out, and when the statue of the queen saw that she failed to kill the pirate captain with one blow, she took two or three more blows without hesitation, stabbing his back one after another with bloody wounds.

【Perfect Hit!!!】

[Boss Pirate Captain's HP: 89% → 65%]

[Current damage ratio panel]

[NO.1——Anson Deer (former chess player): damage accounts for 24%]

[NO.2——Uesugi Asuka (Scarlet Dragon Wing): Damage accounts for 11%]

The flames in the eyes of the queen's statue were pulsating. Unexpectedly, she did not seem to have stabbed the pirate captain's heart - the pirate captain's heart seemed to be in another place, an unusual place!

"Well done, Queen Statue!" Anson put his hand on his chin, "Is the back of the neck a weak point? Why is it like a giant?"

[After 11 seconds of growth, the attributes of the floating fish in the tank have changed subtly - Strength: 20→22; Agility: 20→22; Intelligence: 0→0]

"I will kill you, you bastard. I will kill all of you!"

The pirate captain spat out a mouthful of blood, turned around suddenly, and slashed at the stone statue of the queen with the silver knife in his hand.

"Queen's statue, get out of the way!" Anson Deer growled.

"call--"

The queen statue leaped backwards nimbly, barely avoiding the pirate captain's machete.

The pirate captain's hatred was diverted, giving the seriously injured red dragon time to retreat. It flapped its broken wings, returned to Anson Deer's side, and slowly turned back into human form.

"It's too difficult to fight the Boss alone..." Uesugi Asuka was annoyed, "It's up to you... I bought you ten seconds."

[After 12 seconds of growth, the attributes of the floating fish in the tank have changed subtly - Strength: 22→24; Agility: 22→24; Intelligence: 0→0]

"Just leave it to me."

Anson Lu breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Asuka coming back.

His sequence skill [Protect the King] is still on cooldown. Once the pirate captain gets close to him, he will most likely be finished, so he can only rely on Asuka to carry him forward.

"What tricks do you have?" Asuka Uesugi asked hurriedly.

"Of course there is..." Anson Lu looked at a corner of the deck and raised his lips faintly, "There is a monster that is about to take shape."

At this moment, the boy's dark brown pupils reflected the terrifying fish that was about to burst the fish tank; and the deep eyes of the floating fish in the tank were staring straight at the figure of the pirate captain.
