Chapter 291: Pursuit! Killing the Sea Heir Leader, the Black Orb (2)

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Following that period, she embarked on a solitary journey, living the life of a lone whale, until she eventually reached the Crown of the Ocean.

She had always kept these experiences hidden well but never forgotten the hatred that had acc.u.mulated in her heart. When she saw the leader of the Sea Heirs, it erupted like a bursting dam.

Her gaze was icy, and her intent to kill was palpable.

The leader of the Sea Heirs, who was frantically attempting to escape, also detected her presence. Without hesitation, dozens of Sea Heirs still beside it moved to intercept her, while it commanded a group of strong Sea Heirs to carry it and make a hasty retreat.

Seeing more than twenty Sea Heirs approaching, Anina’s expression tightened.

These Sea Heirs had acquired certain human-like physical traits. Some had grown legs, others had developed hands, and a few had even developed b.r.e.a.s.t.s. However, the Sea Heir leader hadn’t quite mastered the idea of human proportions and aesthetic appeal.

Could you picture a Sea Heir with tentacles coiled around its lower body, a head resembling a petal, and a grotesque ma.s.s on its body, roughly the size of two human heads?

Evidently, the Sea Heir leader had noticed that humans possessed this trait and had tried to develop it, perhaps to determine its practicality.

It had learned, but not fully.

Odd as it may sound, despite their unattractive appearance, these evolved Sea Heirs exhibited significantly enhanced combat capabilities. They were at least on par with White-tier heroes, and a few of those with more extensive evolutions even matched Green-tier heroes.

But Anina showed no fear, raising her sword.

The frigid blade gleamed brightly, emitting an extreme sense of sharpness.

She flicked her sword lightly, and dozens of silver sword auras shot out from the tip of her sword like a torrential rain of pear blossoms, spreading out in a fan-shaped pattern.

As if it had directly cleaved through the seawater.

Seeing this scene, the Sea Heirs instinctively dodged, but the sword aura was too fast. In just half a breath, it had reached the Sea Heir leader.

Dozens of Sea Heirs at the center of the attack were cut into pieces by the sword aura.

After the Dragon Slayer Great Sword had been fully repaired, its power had completely recovered, with an additional attached skill.

[Sword Aura Mastery (Able to unleash dozens of powerful sword aura, ignoring 30% armor, causing ma.s.sive damage to enemies, cooldown time: 10 minutes)]

With just one strike, over half of the evolved Sea Heirs perished on the spot.

They had taken a step on the path of evolution, but in the face of such a powerful attack, their rate of death was similar to that of ordinary Sea Heirs.

Seeing their companions in such a sorry state, the surviving evolved Sea Heirs did not hesitate and continued to advance.

Born out of their gestation, they had no emotions, and they were absolutely obedient to the Sea Heir leader’s commands.

However, the gap in strength was insurmountable.

In just a few minutes, they were slaughtered to the last.

Anina did not waste any time and chased after the fleeing Sea Heir leader.

Only by killing it could she end all of this.

Anina followed the sound emanating from the sea, and before long, she spotted the Sea Heir leader making a hasty escape with several Sea Heirs carrying a large, conspicuous fleshy ma.s.s – impossible to ignore.

The closer she got, the more excited she felt, and her hand gripping the greatsword trembled.

Just one step away from slaying it. Though this one wasn’t the same Sea Heir that had killed her mother, if she could kill it, at least she could secure her home – the Crown of the Ocean.

After wandering for so long, she had finally found a home. Anyone who dared to disrupt this peace would become her enemy!

“Meet your end…”

Anina’s gaze turned icy, and in her heart, she silently vowed. She surged forward like an arrow released from its bowstring.

However, at that moment, the Sea Heir leader came to a halt, its tentacles swaying slowly.

Anina was a bit perplexed when suddenly, her head was overwhelmed by excruciating pain. It was as if countless sharp thorns were piercing into her skull, and ferocious creatures with relentless mouths were tearing at her mind. Her soul was experiencing agony!

The sudden and intense pain made her involuntarily stop.

The veins on her forehead bulged, and her eyes were bloodshot.

The Sea Heir leader was attacking her with its psychic powers!

As a warrior who relied purely on physical combat, Anina’s psychic strength wasn’t formidable. Faced with the Sea Heir leader, who fed on psychic abilities, she was at a severe disadvantage.

Her body became weak, and she couldn’t even hold onto her greatsword. It sank into the mud, and she could only half-kneel on a rock, clutching her head in agony.

When a Sea Heir leader, capable of controlling tens of thousands of Sea Heirs, unleashed its full psychic a.s.sault…

The souls seemed to tremble and lament.

As if seeing that she had no more resistance left, the Sea Heir leader allowed the Sea Heirs carrying it to set it down and deal with her first.

Witnessing this scene, Anina’s heart blazed with boundless anger.

It was just like back then when that Sea Heir leader had used its psychic powers to attack her mother, preventing her from unleas.h.i.+ng her full strength. Otherwise, with her mother’s immense physical prowess, how could she have been killed by Sea Heirs?

And now, they wanted to do the same thing to her!

Despite her reluctance, Anina’s awareness gradually faded, and her surroundings grew dim.

Is this the end?

Anina wondered in a daze.

Some images seemed to appear before her.

First, there were scenes from her childhood, living alongside her mother. Then, it was the time she wandered the oceans after her mother’s death, starving and sleeping on desolate islands.

The images s.h.i.+fted, and she arrived at the Crown of the Ocean, seeing the friendly residents, the delicious food on the table, the soft beds, Alice’s cold face, and many soldiers.

Finally, the face of her Lord appeared, gentle and caring.

“Anina! Anina!!”

Huh? Why did she hear her Lord’s voice?

It must be a mistake, after all, having some hallucinations before death wasn’t unusual.

But despite this, Anina struggled to open her eyes, even if it was just a hallucination.

In a daze, she saw her Lord swimming towards her, and then she heard a clicking sound from her body, and everything went black.

Ji Chen watched Anina lose consciousness, burning with anger.

Observing the Sea Heirs who had previously surrounded them now in disarray, scattering in all directions, he understood that Anina must have achieved her goal.

The Sea Heir leader must have faced a life-threatening situation and couldn’t continue battling for control over the Sea Heirs.

After briefly instructing the hunt for the remaining non-threatening Sea Heirs, he rushed here with Alice, riding the Tyrant Azure Dragon at high speed. But what he saw was the scene of Anina kneeling on a rock.

He picked her up and quickly checked the Lord’s panel.

[Hero]: …Anina (unconscious, transformation)

Unconscious.

Transformation?

Although not knowing the reason, Ji Chen knew that Anina wasn’t in mortal danger, and he couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Then, with burning anger in his eyes, he looked at the Sea Heir leader who had already been subdued by Alice.

Today, if I don’t beat you to a pulp, 1’11 write my name backward!

“Tyrant Azure Dragon, get rid of it for me!”

The three-headed Tyrant Azure Dragon, circling around them, suddenly exhaled a ma.s.sive icy breath, instantly freezing the remaining Sea Heirs and the Sea Heir leader who was fighting Alice.

In the endless cold freeze, even the Sea Heir leader, with its tough demeanor, couldn’t hold on for too long and gradually lost all vitality.

Several tens of seconds later, a system notification sounded.

“Ding- Tyrant Azure Dragon has killed the Sea Heir leader (Red-Legacy Tier), and you have gained…”

“Ding- You have gained 420,000 experience points, and your level has increased (Level 35->37).”

The Sea Heir leader, responsible for numerous troubles and commanding multiple attacks against the Crown of the Ocean, had met its demise.

Even in death, Ji Chen appeared unsatisfied. He collected hundreds of water blades and unleashed them all at once.

Crack—

The ice was cut open by the water blades, tearing the flesh inside into hundreds of pieces.

The Sea Heir leader’s corpse had been torn apart, and there was no chance of him coming back to life.

But at this moment, he suddenly saw a small black bead inconspicuously stuck among the frozen flesh.

Did this bead burst out from the Sea Heir leader’s body?

Ji Chen realized that this was somewhat unusual.

With a wave of his hand, a stream of seawater removed the bead and suspended it in front of him.

The bead was the size of a thumb, crystal clear, and radiated an extremely profound color.

Nonetheless, he wasn’t inclined to investigate it at this moment. Instead, he had the Tyrant Azure Dragon release another frigid breath onto the remains, ensuring there was no possibility of revival. Afterward, he picked up Anina and Alice and departed from the scene, heading back to the Crown of the Ocean..
