Chapter 115
As the Kraken dived deeper and deeper, the view around Ye Bai became increasingly darker until it became pitch black.
The magic light shield protecting the area of more than ten meters under the feet became the only light source nearby. The real fear of the deep sea was more terrifying than the dark night, especially when you could see the occasional very sloppy-looking deep-sea fish flash by.
Of course, all these deep-sea fish that flashed by eventually ended up in the Kraken's stomach without exception.
Standing on the Kraken, the largest and most terrifying overlord in the deep sea, Ye Bai crossed the dark deep sea and headed for the unknown realm in this terrifying atmosphere, but upon closer thought, there seemed to be nothing to be afraid of.
During the journey in the darkness and depth, time seemed to be stretched out. There were a few moments when Ye Bai felt as if he had returned to the real universe. However, this thought only flashed through his mind, because there were shining stars in the universe, so it would not be so dark.
The Kraken was incredibly fast, and no one in the deep sea could possibly match it. Even so, it took a full game day before Ye Bai noticed a change in the scene in front of him.
The view brightened up again, and the sea water changed from dark black to dark blue and finally returned to light blue.
After passing through the deep sea, we did not reach any strange place underground, but instead arrived at another sea surface.
Ye Bai was briefly distracted for a moment, and then he suddenly realized: the deep sea was "moved" here and placed between the layers of Purgatory. Naturally, there is no seabed. It can be regarded as a huge body of water floating in a vacuum.
However, in this not very 'scientific' magical world, there is a certain gravity at the core of the deep sea, which 'binds' the sea level at the edge, allowing it to maintain the normal shape of the ocean, and there is no situation where the seawater splashes out and cannot come back.
The Kraken was moving very fast and soon approached the sea surface. At this time, Ye Bai's eyes focused and fell on a certain place on the sea surface.
Unlike the empty sea area before, in this sea area, Ye Bai saw a bright "sun" in the sky, emitting a unique red glow.
Kraken's target is also that 'sun'.
“Crash…”
Ye Bai emerged from the water along with Kraken's head, and then he could clearly see where the light came from.
It was a space crack that appeared in mid-air, about four meters long and two meters wide.
Even though they were some distance apart, Ye Bai could still feel the breath of the scorching lava on the opposite side through the cracks in space.
The space crack leading to Purgatory is the most obvious and easiest to distinguish among all space cracks. Because Purgatory is very dangerous, it is also a disguised warning to players.
"Small……"
However, at this time, Kraken looked at the space crack, pursed his lips, and showed an extremely disappointed expression. Even the large tentacles under the water looked a lot wilted.
Ye Bai was slightly stunned, and then he immediately understood: "This spatial crack is too small, you can't get through it?"
"Hungry!" Kraken nodded with tears in his eyes.
Ye Bai laughed in silence and took a look at Kraken's current level. He was currently level 74, not yet at the demigod level of level 80. He was unable to use space magic, so it was no wonder that he could not pass through this space crack.
Aside from the very few special creatures like the 'Chosen Ones' players, demigods above level 80, and demons, other creatures in the universe are restricted in their ability to pass through space cracks. Unlike summoning arrays, crossing natural space cracks requires a large enough body size, and secondly, it takes a certain amount of strength to pass through space cracks.
Even for the creatures of Purgatory who are good at summoning spells, this natural space crack is extremely unstable. They don't know how long the crack will exist and the situation of the opposite space. Generally, they will not easily cross the crack unless it is necessary.
Although the Kraken has upgraded quickly and has reached level 74, its size and level still do not meet the requirements for passing through this crack.
As for the spiritual body, Ye Bai has never seen the Kraken's spiritual body have any intention of leaving the main body and acting alone. It is estimated that it cannot be too far away from the physical body, let alone separate the two spaces.
Kraken remembered his mission and hurriedly followed the breath of purgatory here, forgetting about his level and size.
Ye Bai could well imagine Kraken's mood at that moment. It must be like standing in line for food with an empty stomach, and when it was finally his turn, the merchant told him that the food was sold out.
Although the Kraken ate a lot along the way, compared to when he was specifically hunting, the amount he ate on the road was just enough to fill his stomach.
“Hungry…”
Crystal drops fell from the corners of Kraken's mouth and eyes at the same time, and his gaze began to search around, as if he was hunting for prey. He was really aggrieved and really hungry.
Seeing this, Ye Bai reached out and wiped her face, saying:
"I'll bring you Fireball. Can you wait here?"
"Hmm..." Kraken sniffed and nodded seriously.
Seeing her like this, Ye Bai fed her two servings of fish soup from his backpack and, worriedly, warned her, "Even if you're really hungry and want to hunt, don't stray from here... as far as your longest tentacle can stretch. Wait for me to bring you something delicious, okay?"
Kraken seemed to have heard it, and patted his chest to assure: "Yes!"
This was the first time Ye Bai had made an agreement with Kraken. He wondered if his role as a "master" could allow Kraken to endure hunger.
But now that he was in front of the crack, Ye Bai couldn't give up this opportunity and had to explore it no matter what.
Soon, Ye Bai and Ottophis stepped onto one of the Kraken's tentacles.
The red tentacles were very soft and slippery, but because they were so large, even though they were slippery, Ye Bai and Ottophis could stand steadily on them without worrying about falling.
The tentacles stretched out from the sea surface, like an aerial boom, and easily sent Ye Bai to the side of the space crack.
[You discovered a spatial crack, and the area it leads to seems to have the scent of lava. Do you want to enter?]
This was the special hint of the Purgatory Rift. Ye Bai did not delay and jumped in with Ottophis.
There was a brief feeling of traveling through time, followed by a familiar burning sensation, and Ye Bai knew that he had returned to purgatory.
As soon as he stepped on the black stone in Purgatory, a series of voices that Ye Bai could not understand came from the side.
“&#%¥#…”
The sound came from a horned demon twenty meters away.
There are many kinds of creatures in Purgatory, and different races have different languages. Of course, it's all a bunch of gibberish to players, unless they find an opportunity to join the Purgatory camp and then find the relevant NPC to learn the language, otherwise it will all sound like gibberish.
Moreover, horned demons have their own language, imps have their own language, and hellhounds have their own language. Purgatory can be said to be a "gathering place for small languages." However, these languages are easy to learn because the intelligence of Purgatory creatures who do not know Demonic language is not high, and the language content is only a few basic ones.
On the contrary, Demon Language is a language related to the soul. It is like direct mental communication and can be understood by any creature. At the same time, being able to speak Demon Language is also a symbol of a high-level demon with wisdom.
Because of the mask, the horned demon regarded Ye Bai as a fellow tribesman. However, this was just a prop effect. If Ye Bai really faced the other party's questions, he naturally could not answer them.
Without answering, Ye Bai quickly scanned the surrounding environment.
Not far ahead stood five or six horned demons, to the left were three or four three-headed hellhounds, to the right were a neighing infernal warhorses, and further away, in a pool of lava, there seemed to be several fire elemental spirits soaking...
There is only one possibility for so many hellish creatures of different races to gather together peacefully without fighting. It means that these hellish creatures are subordinates of the Hell Lord, and it is very likely that the Hell Lord's fortress is nearby.
Only under the suppression of a Purgatory Lord can the chaotic Purgatory creatures suppress their desire to fight each other.
What...good luck!
Ye Bai was not surprised but happy. He took a few steps forward again, which immediately attracted suspicious glances from the nearby hellish creatures.
Even though their IQ was not high, seeing a hellish creature emerge from the space crack they were ordered to guard without saying a word, all the hellish creatures nearby noticed something was wrong.
The originally leisurely creatures of Purgatory all stood up, and the horned demon closest to Ye Bai began to approach her.
At this time, in Ye Bai's field of vision, the health bars of these purgatory creatures had already expanded.
However, Ye Bai was not in a hurry at all. She just felt that there were not enough monsters and she was afraid that she could not feed the Kraken enough.
After sweeping away the monsters guarding nearby, Ye Bai soon saw a fortress rising from the lava about one or two hundred meters away.
As expected, this not-so-small crack appeared near the fortress of a Purgatory Lord, causing the Purgatory Lord to send his men to guard it, possibly for the purpose of investigation.
The next moment, the horned demon opened its mouth and spit out a fireball with black smoke towards Ye Bai.
Ye Bai dodged to the side, but not completely, and suffered deflection damage.
'-247'
Despite the high magic resistance, the horned demon could only cause more than 200 damage to Ye Bai.
At the same time, a [Purgatory Fireball] has been stored in Ye Bai's [Disintegration Return] fire spell slot.
"boom!"
Without stopping, Ye Bai threw the infernal fireball at the three-headed hellhound that was watching the excitement from a distance.
'-584'
"Roar!" The Hell Cerberus roared, and was caught off guard by the Hell Fireball, and a large piece of its skull was dissolved.
After launching the attack, Ye Bai's disguise failed. The surrounding hellish creatures were all startled. They all discovered her as an invading surface creature and immediately sounded the alarm.
The highest level monsters here are the Fire Elves of level 55 to 56, followed by the Horned Demons of level 45 to 55. Ye Bai is now experienced enough to deal with monsters below level three without even taking out his blood bottle, and he starts to skillfully "lure the monsters".
He absorbed all the long-range magic attacks and then released them immediately. At the same time, he ran all the way and used the ice bullet technique, which consumed the least mana and was instantaneous, to attack every purgatory creature he saw. Ye Bai circled around the space crack and attacked all the monsters he could reach.
During this process, Ye Bai even saw some piles of firethorn vines nearby, as well as a half-woven "fishing net" made of firethorn vines next to it.
It seems that the Purgatory Lord on this level, like the Lord on the level where Asilio was before, has already explored the other side of the crack, knows that it is the deep sea, and is thinking about fishing.
It's just now...
After a siege, Ye Bai, who had leveled up twice before, deliberately did not level up and rushed into the space crack with low health. Ottophis was faster than her and entered the crack first.
"@#%¥&!"
The warlike blood of the hellish creatures chasing Ye Bai was aroused, and without any hesitation, they angrily squeezed into the crack one after another.
Ye Bai, who passed through the space crack first, felt the breath of sea water coming, and then he fell towards the blue sea.
Ye Bai was still preparing to cast the Light Feather Technique on herself, when the next moment, there was a "splash" of breaking water, and white waves rolled below. From them, a familiar red tentacle emerged and held her steadily.
Good girls are still reliable!
Ye Bai slid down the red tentacles like a slide towards the Kraken's head. At the same time, she pointed at the space crack and shouted, "I brought you food!"
"Fireball!"
Kraken's eyes immediately lit up with green light.
After Ye Bai landed on her head, he was once again protected by the green light shield, and then turned and tilted along with Kraken's head.
Afterwards, Ye Bai felt that the Kraken's body seemed to be moving sideways on the water surface, and its huge tentacles circled towards the space crack.
After being stunned for a moment, Ye Bai realized that the Kraken had put its mouth close to the space crack!
At this moment, the first fire spirit had just exhausted some of its strength and came chasing after it from the space crack.
However, the expected ocean did not appear, and in front of him was a black hole that exuded the salty smell of sea water.
How can there be a hole?
As soon as this question arose, a terrifying suction force came from the cave, sucking the first fire elf into the depths of darkness.
But this was just the beginning. Next came the second, the third... and finally all the creatures that approached the crack, even those on the other side of the crack, were also subjected to this terrible suction, as if they were stuck to the crack in space, and were pulled in one after another.
[Your pet 'Kraken' is higher level than you, you gain 28,000 shared experience points]
[Your pet 'Kraken' is higher level than you, you gain 31,000 shared experience points]
【your……】
At the same time, the experience in Ye Bai's experience pool began to soar. This included not only the shared experience points of the pets, but also the experience points counted as [assisted kills] from previous attacks on these purgatory creatures!
Gaining two experiences from one thing can be described as a standard "win-win" situation. This was the purpose of Ye Bai's effort to "lure the monster" just now.
