Chapter 1418: Chapter 1280: The Girl Determined to Protect to the Death Chapter 1418: Chapter 1280: The Girl Determined to Protect to the Death Dark Sea Pirates had suffered a major blow more than ten years ago, almost disappearing from sight, but in recent years, they have risen again, with their development speed being quite astonishing and bounties soaring from a few hundred Xuan originally to nearly ten thousand, and now to tens of thousands of Xuan.
The main task of the Wupan Navy was to resist the invasion of foreign enemies and at the same time wage war on various coastal nations, but like lions struggling to kill mice, the Wupan Navy truly had no effective means to deal with this group of pirates, which had already caused dissatisfaction among the people.
After talking with Great Leader Xu Kuang for a moment, Leader Hai Que had already prepared all kinds of information.
After bidding farewell to Great Leader Xu Kuang, everyone returned to the courtyards and began discussing how to deal with that group of pirates.
On the seventh day, all members of the New Moon Navy had assembled.
To avoid being discovered by the spies of the Dark Sea Pirates, the New Moon Navy kept a low profile, coming here for a routine visit of a week before returning to the New Moon Land.
The silver warship, flying a homeward-bound flag, sailed towards the Dark Sea. White waves were parted, and thirty warships sped through the blue ocean; not long ago they were still in the seaport, but soon after, they had disappeared at the place where the sea meets the sky.
The ship surged forward at full speed, and the young team leader, Zeng Bangyang, seemed very excited, as if ready to demonstrate his skills.
And Leader Hai Que, who was accompanying them on this trip, seemed somewhat oddly emotional.
These days, Hai Que had been standing on the deck, her gaze fixed on the turbulent ocean, her thoughts drifting like the sea breeze.
Everyone knew she was preoccupied and did not disturb her.
…
At night, dark clouds covered the sky, obscuring the moonlight and stars, plunging the whole world into darkness; only the sound of the ocean waves told the sailors that they were still at sea.
“Chu Mu?” A pleasant voice drifted over; in the Center of Darkness, a pair of light blue eyes faintly twinkled.
The darkness almost became Chu Mu’s backdrop, as Chu Mu turned his head, his fingertips twirling a ball of white flame, slightly illuminating the shadow of the stern.
The silver flame revealed the speaker, and Chu Mu saw that it was Hai Que, who had been looking quite melancholic recently.
Hai Que usually liked to wear short leather jackets, emanating the sexiness and flair of a seaport woman.
Chu Mu looked at her and gave a faint smile, saying, “Is it you? Can’t sleep?”
Chu Mu now differed slightly from ordinary humans; possessing Dark Attributes, he did not necessarily need sleep to replenish his energy at night. Considering that enhancing Soul Sense was key to improving strength, Chu Mu would not waste a day’s time on meditative cultivation.
“You seem a bit different from us normal people? I heard that there are Abnormal Humans in this world… are you one of them?” Hai Que, looking at the small flame jumping atop Chu Mu’s palm, curiously began.
Chu Mu controlled the flame, flicking it into mid-air with his fingertip, turning it into a floating white fire lamp.
“Seems so,” Chu Mu nodded.
“So are you, Abnormal Humans, offspring of Soul Pets and humans… uh, I mean no offense.” Hai Que realized her words were quite inappropriate and quickly apologized.
“…” Chu Mu’s mouth twitched slightly; Hai Que really had some wild imagination, what did she mean by offspring of Soul Pets and humans.
Most different races and species could not reproduce, and those with mixed blood were at least from the same major clan.
“Your ideas are really bizarre. Actually, Abnormal Humans are all humans, just that they unintentionally coexist with the life of a certain Soul Pet, allowing Soul Pet Masters to directly use the power of Soul Pets…” Chu Mu had to correct Hai Que’s notion, or else he’d turn into a monster!
“So that’s it, it seems like you know a lot about the Abnormal series. Have you seen other Abnormal Humans?” Hai Que asked apologetically with a smile.
“Including myself, we have three in Our New Moon Land, one of whom is like me, a half-demon, whose experiences are much more complicated than mine, and another…” Chu Mu said.
“Is the other one that Ghost Princess who is always following you?” Hai Que asked.
Chu Mu shook his head and said, “She doesn’t count. She is because her body died and her soul revived, and once we find a way to revive her, she will still be a normal person.”
“Who is the other one, also a half-demon?” The Sea Maiden asked with a keen interest in the Abnormal Human type.
Chu Mu shook his head and said, “She is a Flower Girl, sharing a body with the soul of the Ancestor of Good and Evil.”
“A Flower Girl? So, there really are Flower Girls in this world?” the Sea Maiden said in astonishment.
“She’s like us two half-demons, originally human, but due to certain factors, ended up with dual spirits in one body. Of course, her situation is more complicated than ours,” Chu Mu explained.
“Which of you three is the strongest in terms of Abnormal Human strength?” the Sea Maiden immediately asked.
“The two of us half-demons have comparable strength, but the Flower Girl is stronger than us,” Chu Mu replied.
The Good and Evil Flower King’s race level was too high. Until now, that woman hadn’t even reached the Tenth Rank, so in similar circumstances, even if Chu Mu and Bai Yu teamed up and had Demon Flame to suppress the Flower type, they might not be able to handle the Good and Evil Queen.
“By the way, several years ago I saw a little girl, but I’m not sure if she was an Abnormal Human,” the Sea Maiden suddenly recalled, speaking hastily.
“Tell me about her,” Chu Mu prompted.
“She had a lot of Soul Pets around her. Normally, we Soul Pet Masters can only summon five Soul Pets to fight for us, but I saw her surrounded by dozens of powerful creatures, and all those different types of Soul Pets were protecting her. I heard that Abnormal Humans have the ability to communicate with Soul Pets…” the Sea Maiden explained.
Upon hearing this, Chu Mu was momentarily stunned.
There seemed to be only one person in this world capable of having such affinity.
“Could you roughly describe that little girl? I might know her,” Chu Mu said immediately.
“She looked about twelve or thirteen years old, her hair black and somewhat curly, and her eyes were a captivating purple…” the Sea Maiden said. “I only glimpsed her once, as there were many powerful creatures around her, and I didn’t dare get too close.”
Black curly hair, captivating eyes tinged with purple – those features alone were enough to confirm that the Sea Maiden was talking about Ning Man’er, as Chu Mu hadn’t seen anyone else with those specific eyes.
“The little girl you mentioned, I know her. She’s not an Abnormal Human; she just inherited some special power. Her name is Ning Man’er, and she should be in your Wupan Continent now. The reason I came to Wupan Continent was to find her,” Chu Mu explained.
When Chu Mu arrived at Crown City, he had asked Lan Rao about Ning Man’er, but Lan Rao had stated that she didn’t know anything about Ning Man’er and was merely acting on orders from He Cang, the man who had once eradicated the pirates.
“How did you encounter her?” Chu Mu asked.
Ning Man’er’s origin and the situation with the World Ancestor Tree were things Chu Mu still didn’t quite understand. Since he was specifically there to find her, Chu Mu needed to get a clear picture of her background and why she had fled to New Moon Land.
“It was many years ago,” the Sea Maiden fell into reminiscence and after a moment continued, “It was in my hometown, Wan City. I was paying respects to my family when I saw a group of powerful creatures rushing past us. I stood there, dare not move, since those creatures were much stronger than I.”
“Wan City is a human territory, so it was very strange to suddenly see so many wild, powerful creatures, and what surprised me even more was that all those creatures were protecting the little girl you mentioned.”
Ning Man’er had a special affinity for all wild Soul Pets, including the ferocious Nightmare Demons, and she could tame them. Moreover, most of those Soul Pets were probably guardian beasts of the World Monarch Tree.
“Chasing that little girl was a group of extremely powerful Soul Pet Masters, about a thousand in number, with varying strength. The strongest even reached the Immortal level, and the weaker were at the Emperor level. They pursued her, continuously slaughtering from the ruins of Wan City to Crown Sea. Massive, mountainous corpses fell in the heavy rain, countless Soul Pet bodies almost filled the ocean, and eventually, the entire area was stained red,” the Sea Maiden described.
That battle was the most frightful she had ever witnessed. Powerful Immortal level human Soul Pets clashed with wild Immortal level Soul Pets, shaking the earth and stirring the waters. It was the first time the Sea Maiden had seen true destructive power, as formidable creatures that she thought were unreachable were torn apart by those loyal guardians, with flesh and blood raining down furiously.
Over a thousand Soul Pet Masters, the weakest of whom were at the pinnacle of Soul Emperor, attacked the thirty or so Soul Pets defending the girl. They fought a retreating battle, and the seascape, filled with corpses and a thick scent of blood, gradually faded into the depths of the ocean.
Although that time was actually very brief and some years had passed, the memory remained vivid to the Sea Maiden, particularly the loyalty of those thirty-plus guardian Soul Pets. What kind of girl required so many top-level Soul Pets’ lives to protect her, and why was there such intense sacrifice to compete for her?
The Sea Maiden’s description was detailed, and Chu Mu could even imagine the brutal scene of that time.
Recalling every stormy night when the girl would crawl into his arms to feel secure enough to fall asleep, Chu Mu felt a profound sense of emotion.
She was still an immature girl, her past like a carefree butterfly that could live a lifetime simply by dancing joyously. Yet, she had to undergo such a harsh contrast of ugly human greed and fiercely loyal guardianship, which would indeed have a huge impact on a pure soul.
It was a relief that her disposition remained healthy and strong. Every time Chu Mu mentioned it, she stubbornly denied being afraid of the stormy nights.
