Chapter 42 Picking Up the Lost Items of Boss Hai
Achen and Xi'er were somewhat disappointed at failing to capture the Endless Lord.
Despite the high priest's repeated warnings not to pursue the fleeing enemy, fearing that the Endless Lord might make a desperate struggle and injure them, they still refused to rest and instead wandered around the outer sea.
The guards on the outer sea are now quite familiar with Xi'er and Achen, especially Xi'er, who is the High Priest's precious darling.
Seeing Xi'er wandering around nearby, the guards couldn't help but remind her, "Goddess Bai Xi, you should go back and rest early. Tonight is not peaceful. If you encounter any fleeing rebels, it would be bad if you got hurt."
"Don't worry, big brother guard, I can protect myself." Xi'er's sweet, childlike voice melted the hearts of the guards.
If the little girl wanted to wander around, then so be it. However, the guards were on high alert, remaining vigilant at all times, for fear that a traitor might suddenly appear and frighten her.
Xi'er and Achen refused to go to rest, and Xiaobao, Lingdeng, Fusheng, and Ruomeng naturally followed suit.
Bo Yiyan, Matt, and Mina would certainly not abandon them; they would be heartbroken if anything happened to these two little darlings.
After wandering around for a while, they still found nothing unusual; the Endless Lord had disappeared somewhere.
The sea is different from the land. There are many hidden reefs and deep ravines where one can hide. Even if he is dyed and has a fluorescent color, it will be difficult to find his whereabouts in a short time.
As night deepened, Xi'er yawned, and everyone couldn't help but urge her to go to sleep.
But Xi'er stubbornly refused to go to sleep.
Suddenly, Matt's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly, "There's movement, about ten miles from the open sea."
"Has the traitor's reinforcements arrived?" Ah Chen asked hurriedly.
“It’s a group of sea creatures, about two hundred of them. They make quite a commotion when they move, which is why my mental network detected them,” Matt said.
Living in this world with scarce spiritual energy, the sensitivity of the five senses is reduced, and one can only sense the movements within a radius of ten miles.
If it were in the Misty Heaven Realm, with Matt's current abilities, he could sense a range of at least a hundred miles.
Upon hearing that he was talking about sea monsters, the spirit lamp became anxious.
Although she didn't get along with many of the sea creatures in the Lost Sea before she left, they were still neighbors after all.
It's normal for sea creatures to fight tooth and nail for resources, but after leaving the Sea of Relics, she often thinks of them.
Upon hearing that they were rushing towards the Great Abyss Sea, she immediately understood the sinister intentions of those traitors.
They were on the verge of defeat, but they were still unwilling to give up, so they wanted to send these sea monsters to risk their lives to rescue their great leader.
But if they want to save people, they should do it themselves. Why should her neighbors come and die?
Thinking of this, Lingdeng borrowed Achen's short-range teleportation talisman and rushed over to intercept them immediately.
Led by eighteen blue demons, the sea beasts, who were hurrying along, suddenly sensed a familiar and powerful pressure.
As native inhabitants of the Lost Sea, they are naturally familiar with the scent of the most powerful jellyfish in the entire sea.
Many of them had suffered at her hands; some had been beaten by her, while others were so frightened by her that they dared not approach her territory.
At that moment, their instinctive fear made them all kneel down on the ground, not daring to take another step forward.
Before the Blue Demons, who were leading the team, could figure out what was going on, they felt a sharp pain in their heads.
The Spirit Lamp had already launched its strongest mental attack against them, which was her most proficient attack method.
Of course, her mental attacks avoided the sea monsters crawling on the ground.
She used the sea creatures' unique language to convey a message to them: "If you want to live, return to the Lost Sea as soon as possible, or you will die!"
In fact, these sea creatures began to regret their actions just a few days after leaving the Lost Sea.
The distance between the Lost Sea and the Great Abyss Sea is far, and since they are all sea beasts, they will become weaker and weaker as they are away from the sea for a long time, and their combat power will be greatly reduced.
Unlike amphibious hybrids like the Fairy Demons, marine mammals need to replenish their water and nutrients in the seawater regularly.
The seawater they carried in their personal space was not enough to last long, and they endured hunger and thirst throughout the journey.
They were simply brainwashed by the purple demons leading the group, who promised them that once they arrived at the Great Abyss Sea, they would be able to enjoy a vast and pristine sea area, as well as endless resources.
Therefore, they could only endure and persevere, hoping to conquer the Great Abyss Sea as soon as possible so they could enjoy themselves to the fullest.
But now their leader, the Thousand-Thread Jellyfish, suddenly appears and warns them that continuing forward will lead to certain death, and they immediately waver.
Compared to the purple demons leading the teams, they naturally trusted their leader from the Lost Sea more, even if he was a different kind, since they were all sea beasts.
And so, the Blue Demons, whose souls had been attacked by the Spirit Lamp, could only watch helplessly as the sea beasts they led turned and ran in the opposite direction.
They couldn't stop them, and they had no power to stop the more than two hundred frantically fleeing sea monsters.
By the time the eighteen purple demons realized something was wrong, the sea beasts had already scattered and fled, making it difficult to catch them again.
The cannon fodder they sent out had all run away, so the eighteen purple demons discussed it and decided to run away too.
Almost two hours have passed, and the Great Leader still hasn't escaped, nor has he issued any new orders. It seems he has perished in the Great Abyss Sea.
In fact, it wasn't that the Endless Lord didn't want to issue commands anymore, but rather that issuing commands would cause fluctuations in spiritual energy, making it easier for the enforcement team to sense his hiding place.
For his own safety, he could only hide in the deep sea and wait quietly, and then take advantage of the chaos to escape once there was a big commotion.
Unfortunately, he never got to witness any major developments.
