Someone tried to wipe his face with his hands, but the more he wiped, the more smudged it became, like a refugee just dug out of a coal mine, with a smoky makeup effect, which caused the players in the distance who didn't dare to get close to him to laugh undisguisedly.
This tragic and funny scene made the curve of Lu Ye's mouth more obvious.
At this moment, a familiar electronic sound rang in his mind, with a bit of mechanical joy:
[System prompt: Player Lu Ye successfully used environmental traps and high-energy electric grids to kill five elite Deep Sea Ghost Octopuses, and effectively repelled and deterred several players who attempted malicious spying and posed potential threats. His proficiency in the title "Lightning King" has been significantly increased!]
[It has been detected that player Lu Ye has reached a new understanding of lightning-related skills. The "Lightning King" title has been upgraded! Current level: Lv. 2. The power, range, and charging speed of the power grid have been slightly increased.]
Wow? An upgrade already?
Lu Ye raised his eyebrows and called up his attribute panel. Sure enough, he saw a shiny "Lv.2" logo behind the originally gray title of "Thunder King".
It’s okay, at least it’s not all in vain.
But...it seems a little off.
He stroked his chin, his eyes inadvertently sweeping over the three scrolls emitting golden halos lying quietly in the corner of the system backpack.
That was the [Golden Skill/Title Scroll of Unknown Attributes] that I had received as a reward from several major events or special sign-ins before. I had never figured out what to use it for.
Golden scroll...used directly on the title?
Does the system allow this kind of play?
A bold and even somewhat unorthodox idea came to mind.
Who cares!
This "King of Thunder and Lightning" sounds domineering, but I always feel that it is a bit small-scale and not...shiny enough!
Lu Ye did it as soon as he thought of it. Without hesitation, he used his mind to "drag" all three golden scrolls to the title of "Thunder King Lv. 2"!
The next second, the system prompt sounded again, and this time, it seemed louder than any other time.
[Warning! A player has been detected attempting a high-risk operation! The golden scroll contains powerful and uncertain energy. Forcibly fusing titles may cause them to collapse or produce unknown mutations! Do you confirm the execution?]
"Confirmed!" Lu Ye didn't even blink.
Fortune and wealth are sought in danger! If it collapses, it collapses. At worst, you can just start over. What’s there to be afraid of?
[Confirmed! Golden scroll energy begins to flow into the title "Thunder King Lv. 2"... Energy conflict detection... Energy harmonization in progress... Mutation guidance...]
Congratulations to player Lu Ye! Triggering a special evolution! The title "Thunder King" absorbed the energy of the golden scroll, successfully advancing and transforming into the unique and rare title - "Light of Tomorrow"!
[Title: Light of Tomorrow (Uniqueness)]
[Level: Lv.1 (initial)]
[Effect 1: Dawn. Your very presence is a symbol of dispelling darkness and bringing hope. Slightly boosts the morale of allied ships and crews, and slightly weakens the fighting spirit of surrounding hostile creatures (especially those of Dark, Chaos, and Deep Sea attributes).]
[Effect 2: Holy Light (Active). Transforms the ship's lighting system (requires sufficient energy) into a powerful "holy light" with a strong purifying and deterrent effect. It deals additional damage and repels darkness, undead, and evil creatures, while also causing a strong blinding and stun effect (similar to a flashbang) on ordinary creatures and players. Duration and strength of the effect are affected by energy output and title level.]
[Title Alias (Players can set it themselves or accept the system recommendation): Blind Your Eyes (System Recommendation, 98% Compatibility)]
Lu Ye looked at the new title that was glittering with gold and full of special effects, as well as the recommended nickname in the brackets at the end, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch violently.
"Light of Tomorrow"…
It sounds quite serious and glorious, so why is the nickname recommended by the system so... down-to-earth?
Blind your eyes? Although... it seems there is nothing wrong with it.
Okay, that's it! Pretty straightforward!
With a thought, he accepted the nickname recommended by the system.
At this moment, it was almost dusk and the light on the sea was gradually dimming.
Although the ink began to spread under the influence of the ocean current, it still formed a dark area around the Breakers.
"It's a good time to try out new toys!" Lu Ye's eyes flashed with excitement as he gave an order into the communicator.
"Old Bear, Shenhebei, turn on all the lights on the boat! Turn them up to maximum power! Engineering, connect the backup energy source and charge it as hard as you can!"
"receive!"
"Okay, Brother Lu!"
As the order was given, the level 5 warship, the Breaking Waves, seemed like a giant steel beast that had awakened in an instant!
All over the ship, searchlights, deck lights, and even some internal strong light sources, driven by the full power of the energy core, burst out with unprecedented light!
Immediately afterwards, Lu Ye activated his title skill - "Holy Light Shining"!
Buzz——!
In an instant, with the Breaking Waves as the center, a pure and extremely bright white light suddenly burst out!
This light was no ordinary light. It had a strange penetrating power and... "texture" that instantly pierced through the twilight, illuminating the surrounding sea area for hundreds of meters or even further as if it were daytime!
The light was so strong that even the players in the distance subconsciously closed their eyes, feeling a stinging pain in their eyeballs!
"Ah! My eyes!"
"What the hell?! The searchlight has become a spirit?!"
"This light... is so blinding! What the hell is going on with the Breaker?!"
And in the core area of the light, the originally dim sea of ink is nowhere to be hidden!
“Squeak, squeak, squeak—!”
“Hiss—!”
Under the strong light, the "thieves" who had been hiding in the ink and trying to secretly gnaw and drag away the five huge corpses of deep-sea ghost octopuses were instantly exposed!
They were some strange sea creatures, including strange fish with sharp teeth, sea snake-like creatures, and even a few sneaky, smaller squid-like creatures!
They screamed sharply under the strong light, and were obviously not used to this "holy light bath". They looked extremely panicked and painful.
"Huh, still want to steal food?"
Lu Ye sneered and conveyed his thoughts to his "little brothers" underwater again.
"Sabertooth fish, get to work! Throw these uninvited 'guests' up here!"
The deep-sea saber-toothed fish that received the order suddenly accelerated like hounds that received a signal, and used their strong tails and mouths full of sharp teeth to accurately throw those "stowaways" who had nowhere to escape under the strong light one after another onto the deck of the Breaking Wave!
Bang! Snap! Boom!
For a moment, the deck was like a "seafood rain", with all kinds of struggling and twisting sea fish, sea snakes, and small squids falling to the ground. The scene was quite spectacular.
