Chapter 65 Jellyfish Illusion
The muscles in his back were tense, and all his attention was focused on the tip of the axe.
With a single swing of the axe, her strength of 102 was fully unleashed!
WoWo's turtle shell was slammed into the ground and then bounced away!
The ocean dwellers in the stands held their breath!
The tortoise shell spun wildly on the ground before finally coming to a stop.
The referee went over to check and found that it had been spun around until it was dizzy.
The referee declared Mingzhao the winner.
Thunderous applause erupted from the audience.
Mingzhao's sanity had dwindled to just over thirty percent when the turtle referee came over and asked her if she wanted to continue.
She hesitated for a moment, then, thinking of the Rejuvenation Pill in her spatial storage, she nodded.
Back in the waiting area, this time, Mingzhao used the high-level healing potion that Lu Chanyi had given her.
Ordinary healing potions can no longer restore much of her health.
Back on the battlefield, Mingzhao's sanity had recovered to 40%.
For some reason, the audience was completely silent this time.
The white sand beach in front of me has changed at some point.
The clear, transparent seawater, as smooth as jelly, gently washed over her feet.
Mingzhao's shoes had disappeared without her noticing, and her black combat uniform had silently transformed into a soft, white cotton halter dress.
She didn't sense anything was wrong at all.
In this paradise-like resort, this is the normal way to dress.
The sunlight warmed her all over, and a gentle breeze carried the scent of the sea.
Everything seemed just right.
She should have been here, enjoying a comfortable vacation, not thinking about anything, and simply living happily ever after.
However, she always felt as if she had forgotten something.
Something big is about to happen, but what is it?
A voice in her mind advised her not to think about it or to get to the bottom of it.
Isn't the good life we have now good enough? Why dwell on those painful things?
But she couldn't stop herself from thinking about it.
Because she has always been someone who likes to get to the bottom of things, and someone who will definitely do what she has in mind once she has an idea.
Yes, she had to figure out what that thing she had to do was.
She wanted to live consciously, even if reality was despairing and painful, rather than living her life in a daze.
Once a decision was made, the previously calm and uneventful scene began to violently shake.
The holiday cottages behind us and the soft white sand beach beneath our feet began to shake violently.
A tsunami rose from the ground and was about to crash towards her.
Mingzhao had remembered everything. She took out real eye drops from her bosom and dripped them into her eyes.
The familiar arena came into view, and the surrounding stands reappeared, the clamor reaching her ears.
The moment she stepped out of the waiting area, she had already entered the enemy's illusion trap.
There was no tsunami in front of us, but rather a group of glowing jellyfish forming a tower shaped like a tsunami.
Together with the bioluminescent jellyfish in the seawater above, they created a magnificent illusion of light and shadow.
Mingzhao's face darkened, and he took out the Rainstorm Pear Blossom Needles from his spatial storage.
It activated its own protective shield and immediately launched the Rain of Pear Blossom Needles!
The overwhelming barrage of poisonous needles instantly turned the jellyfish on both sides in front of them into sieves.
Several of the bioluminescent jellyfish, which served as lights around their heads, were also hit by the poisonous stingers.
The arena hall darkened considerably in an instant.
Mingzhao sneered and spoke loudly to the muscular walrus standing at the entrance.
"Captain Elephant, is this how you treat VIPs from Ocean City? I didn't know that any arena allows outside creatures to interfere with the competition!"
The marine life on the platform began to whisper among themselves, and the maritime trade groups on Mingzhao's panel clamored for justice for her.
Captain Muscle Walrus was sweating profusely as he made a phone call on a walkie-talkie.
After waiting for a long time, it wiped the sweat from its forehead with a white cloth and directed its seals to take away the bioluminescent jellyfish that were paralyzed on the ground and could no longer glow.
"Distinguished guest, I am so sorry, I just got a severe scolding from the mayor and Boss Hai. You finally made the trip to our place, and this happened. I really can't afford to pay for this even if I had ten lives..."
Mingzhao raised his hand. "Stop! Enough with the nonsense. What exactly is going on?"
Captain Elephant: "Hey, I just contacted the embassy over there with the bioluminescent jellyfish. They said these reactionaries have been missing for a long time. Who would have thought that the most dangerous place is the safest place? They've been using this place as a lighting tool all this time."
“The marine inhabitants have seen these lighting tools so many times that they didn’t notice anything different about them.”
"The Minister of Foreign Affairs of the bioluminescent jellyfish hopes that we can convey his sincerest apologies to you and give this to you as an apology, saying that you are welcome to visit the bioluminescent jellyfish's territory at any time, and that they will surely change your opinion of this species."
As it spoke, it took out a transparent card from its pocket and handed it to Mingzhao.
This cartoon-style image is blue, clear and transparent, as if seawater is flowing within it.
A tiny, bioluminescent jellyfish, preserved as a specimen, floats among them, emitting a faint glow.
[Entry Ticket: Lighthouse of Immortality. An immortal, glowing jellyfish race awaits the salvation of outsiders, willing to trade immortality for the lifting of their curse. Beneath the lighthouse lies a life-altering secret; are you prepared to bear the curse of eternal life?]
The description of this instance sent chills down Mingzhao's spine; the curse of eternal life didn't sound like a good thing.
The territory of the glowing jellyfish, the Immortal Lighthouse, sounds like a sinister place. It's best not to go there until she gains some mental enhancement skills.
Mingzhao: "Fine, I've received the apology from the bioluminescent jellyfish swarm. But what about you? Isn't your negligence in oversight a contributing factor to all of this?"
Captain Elephant's fat face was full of ingratiation.
"Look at you, of course we've prepared an apology gift for you. You won four matches in this competition, earning a total of 100 points. We've doubled that to 200 points. You can go to the points shop and see if there's anything you want."
"This 500 Ocean Coin gift card is our apology gift to you. You can use it at the souvenir shop."
"And this black card is a teleportation ticket to the arena. You can come whenever you want, whether to watch the match or participate in it."
Mingzhao nodded. The Ocean Arena was indeed as wealthy and powerful as she remembered, and her anger had long since dissipated.
The boss, Xiang, respectfully led her to the points store.
As soon as he entered, Mingzhao was blinded by a glittering narwhal covered in gold leaf, which was placed in the very center.
[The only swift narwhal in the entire Ocean City! Originally priced at 9999 points, now on sale for 7999! A steal!]
