Chapter 611: Section 398: Snow Pear Octopus… Slice

A pure slaughter gradually ended before the eyes of the Fishman youth.

The group of Sharp Clawed Water Monkeys collapsed and fled, dying as they fled, and eventually, all fell prey to the Holy Domain sea beast.

The blood dyed the Ocean Nest a pale red, filling the vision of the Fishman youth.

The Holy Domain sea beast opened its huge mouth and sucked in water forcefully.

The blood was sucked in and the water expelled was colorless again.

“This sea beast didn’t even spare their blood…” The Fishman youth once again felt the brutal ferocity of the Holy Domain sea beast from this detail.

The Holy Domain sea beast finished its hunt and shrank back as before. Just as the Fishman youth had seen earlier, it formed into something resembling a snow mountain.

Soon after, the water in the Ocean Nest calmed down, as if the bloody slaughter had been an illusion, as if nothing had happened.

The Fishman youth felt a chill in his heart.

He realized a truth—the Holy Domain sea beast sharing the same space with him was not a naive, mentally pure, curiously adorable creature but a cunning and ruthless hunter at the top of the food chain.

“It could be said to be the owner of this Ocean Nest.”

“No matter what the cause of the teleportation mechanism is, this Holy Domain sea beast has completely adapted to this environment.”

“It was nurtured here, grew up here, fought here and was repeatedly tested here; in the end, only it survived.”

“Perhaps… it, like me, was also teleported here?”

The Fishman youth thought for a moment and once again risked using the extraordinary ability, Spiritual Vision, on the Holy Domain sea beast.

Through the round porthole, he saw the spiritual landscape of the Holy Domain sea beast again.

It was still the shape of a volcano, except now the crater was erupting a vast amount of lava.

Originally, the base of the volcano harbored a lot of black, which had almost entirely turned to deep red.

And in the upper part of the crater, the deep red had turned to light red.

Near the crater, the once red had even shifted to a bit of yellow.

Seeing such a spiritual landscape, the Fishman youth also felt the mood of the Holy Domain sea beast at that moment.

It was a slight joy and relief after venting the accumulated hatred and anger from a brutal slaughter.

And an insatiable craving that had not been completely satisfied!

“This Holy Domain sea beast is absolutely ferocious and brutal!”

“The Ocean Nest can provide it with ample nutrition for growth, but it is not satisfied with just that.”

“Having tasted the deliciousness of fresh blood, how could it possibly settle for something bland?”

“Usually, it curls up into a ball, falls into a deep sleep, waiting for the teleportation mechanism to activate. Once a living creature is teleported in, it attacks immediately, indulging its appetite while venting its brutal anger and other negative emotions.”

Having confirmed the nature of the Holy Domain sea beast, the Fishman youth completely dismissed the idea of taming it.

It was impossible to tame.

The Fishman youth was only at the Silver Level, not even reaching the Gold Level. Though the Deep Sea Monster Fish was a Gold Level demon energy ship, its strongest ability was stealth and submersion. If it really came to combat, and this demon energy ship had to face a Holy Domain sea beast, its combat strength would be insufficient.

When the Fishman youth first received the extraordinary talent of Familiarity Aura, he felt a bit stealthily joyful.

Because this ability could also be applied to the Holy Domain sea beast, enhancing the Fishman youth’s chances of taming it.

Now it seemed impossible.

For such a creature, one must resort to a severe beating, making it submit through sheer force.

That would only be submission on the surface, still leaving many risks.

Merely expressing closeness, or tempting with benefits, was almost certainly doomed to fail.

Of course, if there were a Magic Master by the Fishman youth’s side, employing potions, arrays, and other methods, the possibility of taming it could not be excluded.

Unfortunately, the only mage by the Fishian youth’s side now was Zhongyong. And Zhongyong was just a Fishman, merely a Silver Level Alchemist.

“We must leave here as soon as possible!” the Fishman youth sighed inwardly, acutely aware of the danger of this Ocean Nest.

At present, he had not figured out the teleportation mechanism, but he could be sure that once a teleportation occurred, battle would likely erupt in the nest.

Although the Deep Sea Monster Fish was well disguised and had not been discovered by the Holy Domain sea beast, space in the Ocean Nest was limited.

If a fierce battle occurred, it would likely affect the Deep Sea Monster Fish.

If this demon energy ship were destroyed, the Fishman youth would have nowhere to cry.

“For safety’s sake, the appearance of the Deep Sea Monster Fish needs to be altered through Deception and Disguise Skill.”

To an uninformed observer, the Deep Sea Monster Fish would appear as an unremarkable stone on the seabed.

But in the current environment, a seabed stone among thousands of surrounding pearls was extremely conspicuous.

Despite temporarily concealing it from the Holy Domain sea beast, it was not secure.

What if, one day, the Holy Domain sea beast, out of sheer boredom, decided to play with the stone?

The Fishman youth had another worry—what if, after the teleportation mechanism was activated again, some intelligent transcendent beings were teleported in, and they might notice something odd about the seabed stone and thereby uncover a corner of the truth?

“If disguised as pearls, it could not be a single large or gigantic pearl, but rather a cluster of small pearls,” the Fishman youth thought.

This teleportation and massacre had truly startled him.

However, it was not without gain.

The Holy Domain sea beast had shown its true nature, and soon the Fishman youth obtained information about it from the Tower Spirit.

It was a Snow Pear Octopus.

The creature was mild-mannered and lived by catching fish in the sea.

Regarding its bloodline, the Holy Domain Level wasn’t its limit. If the bloodline concentration reached a certain standard, it could even rise to become a Legendary extraordinary creature!

The Snow Pear Octopus had a Legendary bloodline. However, historically speaking, Legendary Snow Pear Octopuses were at least 1500 years old.

The one currently at the Ocean Nest, based on its size, was only about 60 years old.

According to the age of a Snow Pear Octopus, it was still just a child.

The hunting of the Snow Pear created significant turbulence. Amid the continuous shocks of the sea water, the hull of the Deep Sea Monster Fish also shook violently.

This interference forced Zhongyong to temporarily stop his alchemy.

The Fishman youth then took the opportunity to come to the Alchemy Cabin, and informed him of the latest situation.

Zhongyong was taken aback.

He was familiar with the Snow Pear as well.

Indeed, he was a well-informed Mage.

“Snow Pear Octopus is a rather rare marine life.”

“It is usually not recorded in common books.”

“The book I remember most vividly is ‘The Complete Guide to Raw Food Cooking,’ and the last few pages just happen to describe it.”

“The book records that Master Guoren once hunted a Snow Pear Octopus. He sliced the octopus’s tentacles into thin pieces that could be eaten directly. The Snow Pear Octopus slices are very tasty! They have a crisp texture with a hint of toughness, and the flavor is both the freshness of seafood and the refreshing, sweet taste of fruits.”

“Master Guoren directly rated it as a top-tier ingredient in the world.”

Listening to Zhongyong’s explanation, the Fishman youth was speechless.

“How did it get related to ingredients?”

Curious about Master Guoren, he inquired about his identity.

Zhongyong introduced him, “Master Guoren is the most famous Snow Elf Magic Chef in the history of the Ice Sculpture Kingdom. He is a Legendary figure known for his superb knife skills. His most famous battle took place at the Holy Domain Level where, in three seconds, he cut a peer of the same level into countless thin slices.”

“He loves peace and isn’t fond of killing, his favorite thing is to cook, and he has always identified himself as a Magic Chef. And his cooking ability is also top-tier in the world, especially skilled in making sashimi.”

The Fishman youth sighed: “The reason Snow Pear is used as an ingredient is because Master Guoren is a Legendary Magic Chef.”

“Here, however, we are the potential ingredients for the Snow Pear.”

Seeing the Fishman youth’s troubled expression, Zhongyong, not bearing to see him distressed, consoled, “I had previously reported to the squad leader about the Ocean Nest.”

“Now it seems, the actual situation greatly deviates from my earlier report.”

“This place is not safe, it’s not a place to stay for long!”

“We must break the nest as soon as possible and escape from here. That’s the wise thing to do.”

The youth frowned, “But breaking it will inevitably make noise and anger the Holy Domain sea creatures, making us their first target.”

“It’s not necessarily.” Zhongyong thoughtfully answered, “It depends on the results of the Dual-Ear Detection Puppets I’m refining.”

“If we discover that there are many powerful sea creatures living around the Ocean Nest.”

“Even if we break the nest, awaken, and anger the Holy Domain sea creatures, we still have a chance to escape.”

The Fishman youth’s eyes lit up.

Zhongyong’s method had a certain feasibility.

Using Deception and Disguise Skill and Anti-Intelligence Prophecy Skill, the Deep Sea Monster Fish could disguise itself. Then, the Fishman youth could control some Alchemy Puppets to perform explosive tasks.

The Snow Pear’s nature was cruel and brutal; once its nest was destroyed, it would definitely fly into a rage.

It would vent its emotions, and at that time, the peripheral sea creatures would be the most apparent targets.

As long as the two sides start fighting, the Deep Sea Monster Fish could then take the chance to escape.

“Now, let’s wait for the results of the scouting. Hopefully, there are many sea creatures inhabiting around this Ocean Nest,” the Fishman youth couldn’t help but hope silently.

The Fishman youth underwater was in a dilemma, and so was Feng Lian above water.

The Divine Wind Pirate Group had suffered a sudden attack by the Lijian family clan leader, resulting in heavy losses.

After a quick evacuation, Feng Lian immediately ordered a thorough investigation for a traitor.

However, after investigating everyone, including Lan Zao who was unconscious, no results were found.

The results showed that everyone was innocent.

Feng Lian pondered for a moment, summoned the Ice Eagle, and said directly, “The Lijian family’s clan leader, Mian licang, is cunning and ruthless, causing severe casualties to my squad.”

“This grudge, I will return it to him tenfold!”

“Hatred makes every second unbearable.”

“So, I’m not sending you to Flower Skirt Island next.”

“We’re not far from Flower Skirt Island; I’ll give you three landing crafts, which should be enough for you to get there.”

Ice Eagle, understanding Feng Lian’s implied meaning from his words.

Feng Lian still suspected that there was a traitor among the members of the Saber Gang!

But he didn’t say it outright.

Nor did he spend more energy on investigating.

On one hand, he couldn’t treat the members of the Saber Gang this way; on the other hand, he didn’t have much confidence that the investigations would yield any result.

The previous two thorough searches had seen the pirate group give it their all.

Thus, for Feng Lian, the most straightforward and easiest solution was to simply throw the Saber Gang members overboard!
