Chapter 148 Death of Duke Nova

Under the increasingly restless sea.

A shadow passed through the turbulent undercurrent, quietly approaching the bottom of the "Blood Duke" and its escort ship like a swimming fish.

It was Xia En who entered the [submersible] state.

In fact, compared to the [Mist of Hell] and the storm summoned by Joey.

This projected body is his real trump card and the basis for his victory over the [Blood Duke]!

At this time, Xia En was doing two things.

Sometimes the [Black Swan] on the sea launched harassing bombardments against the fleet, and sometimes it changed its position to attract the attention of the enemies on the [Blood Duke].

And his projected body approached the bottom of the [Blood Duke] at full speed.

The undercurrent around him not only did not bring a sense of blockage and stagnation, but actually became a faint boost to him.

There was also a soft call coming from the deep sea further below.

It seemed to be welcoming his arrival.

This smooth and brisk feeling made Xia En's mouth slightly raise.

Although his combat power on the island is not weak, of course he will not forget that the world under the sea is his home court!

It didn't take long.

The dark red hull of the [Blood Duke] is already in sight.

It has to be said that the size of this ship is indeed one of the largest ships that Shane has ever seen.

Only the [Viper] can compete with it.

Especially when looking up from the sea, the shadow it casts is quite spectacular, like a mountain floating on the sea.

But now, what Xia En wants to do is to destroy this mountain!

"It must be fun to dismantle such a big ship, right?"

At this time, Xia En inexplicably remembered the first time he met pirates.

Facing the "Blood Wolf", he, who was not yet a Mystic, was forced to use ship-breaking tactics, dragging the pirates on the ship into the sea and hunting them one by one.

This moment is just like that moment.

However, both the enemies he faced and Xia En himself were completely different from those days.

"[Blood Wolf], [Blood Duke]... Fate is really a wonderful thing."

"But it's time to end this."

Xia En held the [Giant Wristwheel] on his wrist and said to himself very calmly.

"Transformation."

Boom boom boom boom!

A terrifying roar erupted from Xia En's body.

With the influx of the secret power of [Giant Wristwheel], an unprecedented tsunami seemed to have occurred inside this projected body!

The violent secret power bursts out with heat like magma, rushing endlessly in the body!

Non-existent, illusory flesh and blood, bones, blood vessels, organs... expanded at an incredible speed.

And unlike the previous transformations, this time the secret power was stimulated as if it had broken through some kind of restriction.

Xian's body shape became taller than before.

Three meters, five meters, eight meters...

His height continued to skyrocket, all the way exceeding the previous limit of ten meters, and finally settled at...

Fifteen meters!

"The potential of the forbidden relic [Giant Wristwheel] is actually affected by my own physique and cannot be fully unleashed."

"Now that I have been promoted to the third level, I have broken through the original limitations."

Xia En realized something in his heart: "Fifteen meters is still not the limit of [Giant Wristwheel], but the limit of my body!"

He couldn't help but think of the corpse of the King of Giants, which was more than thirty meters high.

One day, he can reach that level?

Or, higher?

These distracting thoughts flashed away in his mind, and Xia En felt the huge power filling his body, and an emotion that was about to be released surged in his chest.

Roar!

He let out a low roar and jerked his right fist back.

While the body was stretching and accumulating power, banging and banging sounds erupted, constantly accumulating terrifying power.

It was like a siege crossbow stretched to its limit.

next moment.

With a loud bang, the fist like a mountain fell directly on the solid hull of the [Blood Duke].

The terrifying power spread from the bottom of the ship and quickly spread to the entire ship, causing the [Blood Duke] to tilt to one side uncontrollably.

Boom——

Amidst the muffled sound, everyone on the ship felt the deck beneath their feet shake violently.

Several sailors were unable to stand and were almost thrown off the deck.

The butler Bruno quickly grabbed the mast next to him, looking a little flustered: "What happened?"

There was no figure of the [Black Swan] on the sea, and its shelling still fell on the escort ship from time to time.

Since it wasn't the [Black Swan], what could it be that attacked them?

"Quick, look! In the sea..."

A sailor's exclamation attracted everyone's attention.

People quickly looked towards the surrounding sea.

They saw a huge shadow emerging from the surface of the sea as the waves gradually became larger, darkening the nearby water like ink.

Due to the shroud of fog and the distortion of the sea water, it is difficult for people to see the true appearance of the shadow.

You can only vaguely see the opponent's huge size and the weird feeling of oppression coming from the deep sea.

From its surface, there seemed to be some wriggling and growing dark things extending out.

As its body swayed, the seawater was constantly stirred, forming waves that were stronger than the previous ones, causing the hull of the "Blood Duke" to sway slightly.

"Oh my god, what the hell is that?"

"Is it a monster in the deep sea?"

"Goddess above, please protect me and wait..."

Seeing such a scene, the sailors were all panicked and caused a commotion.

Although the previous shelling and ramming attacks by the [Black Swan] were powerful, they were still within the scope of normal naval battles, and the sailors had experienced them many times.

However, the appearance of this "sea monster" now exceeded their expectations, and they didn't even know what it was.

The unknown is the source of fear!

Duke Nova's expression became a little ugly again.

She didn't think it would be such a coincidence. Just when they were fighting the Black Swan, they were attacked by a sea monster.

"This must have been done by the captain!"

"But what exactly is this..."

Boom!

Before Duke Nova could figure out the origin of the giant thing in the sea, another muffled sound came from the bottom of the boat.

At the same time, the hull of the [Blood Duke] shook violently again.

And this is just the beginning!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The third time, the fourth time, the fifth time...

Even with the strength of the [Blood Duke], it would be difficult to withstand such a ferocious and violent attack.

The deck was creaking, the crew was swaying, and debris was rolling around as the ship tilted.

The worst thing is that the ocean has been stirred up by invisible forces, and the celestial phenomena in the nearby sea areas have changed as a result.

The storm is coming!

Bad news always comes.

"Your Majesty, the cabin, the cabin is leaking!"

The exclamations from the sailors below the cabin made Duke Nova's heart sink again.

But she is worthy of being a strong person who has been in charge of Duke Island for so many years. After a brief panic, she made the most correct choice.

"Raise the sails and move forward at full speed!"

"Second-level Mystics and above, go to the cabin with me and deal with that guy!"

"Either get rid of it or kill it!"

After saying that, Duke Nova led his men and walked towards the lower level of the cabin.

At this time, the sailors in the cabin were busy repairing the cracked hull, and a layer of water had accumulated on the ground.

But fortunately, the [Blood Duke] is big enough.

Even if the cabin leaks, the incoming seawater cannot fill all the cabins in a short time.

However, the situation is still worse than Duke Nova thought.

In just a short time, seven or eight holes appeared on the boat, and many cracks were spread throughout the hull.

Boom!

At this moment, a muffled sound suddenly came from not far away.

Duke Nova's eyes narrowed, his fat body turned into a blood shadow, and he rushed to the scene at an extremely fast speed.

Nearby, several crew members were looking at the wall in front of them in fear.

Terrifying spider web-like cracks are emerging on it.

boom!

The next second, the wooden board was penetrated by a black shadow, and then exploded into countless fragments.

The dark sea water immediately rushed into it along the hollow.

An unlucky crew member couldn't dodge and was hit by the impact of the black shadow. His whole body exploded like fireworks under the huge force, dyeing the sea water blood-colored.

At this time, the secret traveler who came first was able to see clearly——

That black shadow was a huge fist!

"fist?"

The crewmen's eyes widened in astonishment, not knowing whether to doubt their own eyes or their own cognition.

Doesn't this mean that the monster outside the [Blood Duke] under the sea is actually a human being?

His fist alone is so big, so how huge should his body... be?

That's when.

Those dark, gloomy hands suddenly grabbed both sides of the hollow board and tore outwards.

Squeak—squeak—

The sound of the overwhelmed wooden planks was mixed with the roaring sea water.

The Secret Pathers saw the giant's purpose. He wanted to use this big hole to open a bigger wound on the "Blood Duke"!

A second-level Mystic Pathfinder with Sea Clan bloodline rushed to the scene first.

He roared angrily, and his body continued to expand under the wash of sea water, reaching a height of about three meters.

Sharp teeth, smooth scales, and gills appeared on his body.

Such a strong man is enough to serve as the captain of a pirate ship, and also makes the sailors next to him look in awe.

However, he had just activated the power of his bloodline.

In the sea water, a fist came with huge force and hit him hard.

boom!

Under the squeezing force of the huge force, the Mystic of the Sea Tribe twisted and deformed, and exploded into a cloud of blood mist.

Immediately afterwards, it shot out with a loud bang from this punch.

As the wooden planks and seawater collapsed, the Mystic Pathfinder of the Sea Clan crashed through the wall of the cabin and directly hit the hull on the other side of the ship, quickly making no sound.

With one punch, he instantly killed a second-level Mystic Pathfinder!

Seeing such a scene, the nearby crew members could not help but look frightened, and fled in a panic to the cabin that was not flooded by sea water.

At this time, Duke Nova arrived here with other men.

She looked into the depths of the water that was dyed red.

Coincidentally, in the big hole, she saw a pair of indifferent, cold eyes.

At this moment, even Duke Nova could not help but tremble in his heart, feeling unspeakable fear.

But soon, she took out a bloody scepter and pointed it directly at the huge shadow in the sea.

"No matter who you are, die!"

In the surrounding sea water, blood-colored threads were woven into the shape of a sharp blade.

Then, the bloody blade cut straight towards the giant's body.

The seawater it touched also spread out blood-colored lines, and the bodies of the crew members who had died from the squeeze quickly melted in the blood-colored lines.

This is the unique innate ability of Duke Nova——

【The melting of blood! 】

She can melt any flesh that comes into contact with the power of her blood, and can even integrate it into her own body.

And with the blessing of the third-level secret power, this melting power can be described as extremely domineering.

However, it was only in the blink of an eye.

The giant shadow that was still outside the big cave disappeared before. It easily dodged the attack of the blood blade and was not affected by any blood lines.

"So fast..."

Duke Nova felt awe-inspiring.

It was only then that she realized that the giant in the sea was not only incredibly powerful, but also had terrifying speed!

boom!

Sea water poured into the cabin, and another hole exploded behind Duke Nova.

At the same time, a big hand grabbed her fat body.

A shield with a bloody halo appeared around Duke Nova, blocking the attack.

However, her body was still swept out of the cabin by the sea water and came into the dark sea.

This is exactly Xia En's purpose.

He wants to kill this third-level secret traveler on his home court!

Suddenly being swept into the sea water, Duke Nova did not panic. Instead, a coldness flashed in his eyes.

A consul like her would naturally not lack the means to temporarily move freely in the sea.

The moment she came into contact with the giant's palm was when she used her killing move!

Many blood blades and blood patterns turned into a terrifying bloody storm, attacking Xia En's arm, trying to cut through his skin and penetrate deep into his body.

clang! clang! clang!

The bloody blade collided with the giant's skin, but it made a dull sound like gold and stone colliding.

Duke Nova watched helplessly as cracks appeared on the bloody blade and then shattered on its own. He couldn't help but his eyelids twitching slightly.

“This guy’s skin is so hard?”

But what made her happy was that the blood lines with the power of [Dissolution] had spread upwards along the giant's arm.

"As long as the blood pattern reaches his heart, no matter how strong his body is, he will definitely die!"

"Moreover, if I absorb the blood of this giant, my strength will definitely soar again!"

Duke Nova looked at Xia En greedily.

In her eyes, the other party was like a prey caught in a spider's web and entangled again and again, with nowhere to escape.

At the same time, Xia En's movements did not pause at all, punching Duke Nova's shield one punch after another.

Under this terrifying power, the shield continued to ripple, and fine cracks appeared vaguely.

The surrounding seawater surged and undulated, almost forming a whirlpool in the sea, making the "Blood Duke" and the escort ships teetered, as if they would be swallowed by the sea and storm at any time.

Finally, he saw blood streaks spreading to the giant's chest.

Duke Nova raised his scepter with a devilish smile on his lips: "Farewell..."

Many bloody lines emerged from her body, echoing the blood lines on the giant's body, lighting up with a scarlet halo.

However, the expected feeling of influx of power did not appear.

What she felt on the other side of the blood pattern was just...

nothingness!

It was as if what the blood streaks covered was not the giant's body at all, but just a mass of air or sea water.

"……How can it be?"

Duke Nova was shocked and felt extremely ridiculous.

This giant in the sea is clearly standing in front of him alive, but why is it "nothingness"?

Suddenly, Duke Nova remembered the legend about the "Faceless Shadow" spread by the Vampires.

"The Faceless Shadow...Silver Moon Island...Black Swan..."

"Could it be..."

She vaguely guessed the truth of this incident, but at the same time, a heavy punch like a cannonball fell on the protective shield again.

Click!

With a crisp sound, the shield collapsed into countless blood-colored light spots.

Obviously, no matter what the truth is, she has to kill the giant first!

Duke Nova's eyes were solemn and gloomy, and he murmured: "You forced me to do this..."

Then, more and more bloody lines extended from her face, limbs, and palms, forming a rose flower pattern.

Her thick skin split open like a flower, revealing the candle-like, semi-solidified, semi-fluid flesh and blood inside...

…

…

at the same time.

On the Blood Duke and its escort ship, the sailors looked uneasily at the blurry figures in the sea.

"The Duke is so strong, he will definitely win, right?"

Originally, everyone firmly believed in this point.

But after seeing the shadow of the giant, their thoughts changed subtly.

"That giant is simply a monster..."

"Could it be related to the [Black Swan]?"

"impossible?"

Just as the crew members were whispering, suddenly Bruno on the deck let out a scream.

"ah!!!"

"What’s wrong with you?"

Everyone looked at him in confusion.

"It hurts, it hurts..."

"Your Majesty, why are you?"

While wailing, a rose made of blood lines appeared on Bruno's face.

Immediately, his body quickly melted and turned into a pool of flesh and blood that looked like a candle that had not yet solidified.

This sight stunned everyone on the boat.

But soon, some secret travelers in the crowd began to scream and began to melt.

"This is the brand of the Duke! Duke Nova is extracting their power..."

As this person said, all those who appeared on the secret path with rose blood patterns were turned into melted flesh and blood in a few breaths, and flowed along the hull of the ship into the deep sea.

It didn't take long.

A scarlet, deformed "flesh candle" appeared on the sea.

At this time, the Duke of Nova was already over ten meters tall, and the wriggling flesh and blood continued to merge into it, making him become more bloated and obese.

The face at the top looked so grotesque and out of place.

"Hahahaha, the real battle has just begun now!"

Opposite her, the giant spoke amid the rolling waves.

"Start? No, it will be over soon."

"Now, in my name, judge your sins!"

Xia En's voice was rumbling and majestic like a god.

[Double ship soul! 】

【The power of storm! 】

As he moved his thoughts, huge and surging power was crazily poured into the giant's body.

Waves stronger than ever surged around him, chaotic winds wrapped around his body, and thick clouds rotated around him.

At this moment, he seemed to be the master of this sea area!

Even if this was not a natural storm, Xia En could still feel that he was blessed by it.

Rumble——

Dark thunder was generated in Xia En's hands and quickly transformed into the shape of a spear.

This is the dark thunder storm plundered from the promotion ritual. Although it can only be used once, it has become a real killing move at this time.

At this moment, Duke Nova felt an extremely strong sense of crisis in his heart.

What's going on with this storm?

What is that dark thunder?

Why did his aura suddenly soar again?

But at this time, Xia En, who had accumulated his momentum to the extreme, had already thrown the spear in his hand!

The dazzling blackness, mixed with deep blue and blood, bloomed together.

In the blink of an eye, the pitch-black spear carried the sword intent of the [Sword of Judgment], cutting through the sky and the waves, heading towards Duke Nova's face.

The dark thunder spear was reflected in his pupils, and Duke Nova's eyes showed a complex look of confusion, shock and fear.

She roared unwillingly, and her flesh and blood turned into countless weapons in an attempt to stop him.

However, the power of this spear far exceeded her expectations.

The spear pierced the bloated body, pierced the heart hidden under the flesh, and left a terrifying ravine hundreds of meters long on the sea surface.

The dark thunder turned into dark flames, spreading from top to bottom, greedily devouring Duke Nova's flesh and blood.

Then, the dark candles suddenly lit up, and the extremely high temperature quickly evaporated the surrounding seawater, making the sea surface and clouds appear pitch black.

Aren’t candles just for burning?

"No, how is that possible?"

"How could I die here..."

Amid the burning sound of the black flames, Duke Nova's unwilling roar could be vaguely heard.

But no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't stop the flames from burning and the flow of life, and she could only dissolve into the candlelight in despair.

The survivors on the [Blood Duke] fleet all looked at this scene blankly, unable to even say a word.

"finally……"

Looking at the gradually melting Duke Nova, Xia En's mood was rarely complicated.

His grudge with Duke Nova probably dates back to the old butler at the beginning of time travel.

Later, Duke Nova was like a mountain weighing on Sean's heart, bringing him great pressure.

To this day, with the death of Duke Nova, the past grudges have been resolved.

Soon, Xia En gathered his thoughts and looked at the sinking [Blood Duke], a look of anticipation flashing in his eyes.

The enemy has been dealt with.

Next, it’s time for happy bag licking!
