Chapter 246 Helping Negotiate

The item Wang Zhifan took out from his personal space was the Excellent Holy Grail of Filth. When he found that the sea monster he controlled had no intelligence, he decided to use this prop to give it a good transformation.

He was seen holding the Holy Grail, and without any delay he began to curse the frozen sea monster in front of him, intending to corrupt it into a monster under his control, and then use it to carry out subsequent work.

The process of casting the curse was not complicated, and since the target of the curse was right in front of him, the curse went smoothly. The Holy Grail locked onto the sea monster in an instant and started the process of corruption.

The only problem was that the corruption process was so slow that Wang Zhifan was a little speechless. He stared at the sea monster in front of him for a while and it still showed no obvious changes, so he decided not to waste time here and let this big unlucky guy go. Enjoy it slowly where you are.

"The last time I used the Holy Grail to curse the gangster, it seemed that the corruption was completed in a second. This time, it seems that the curse will not be successful in a few hours. It may even take a day... I'd better hurry up first."

Wang Zhifan thought that this stupid sea monster should not be able to lift the curse on its own, and it would not have much impact if it turned into a monster under his control later. He quickly ordered the crew of the Dogfish to control it and set off again to the Sea of ​​Storms.

These NPCs on the ship had just seen Wang Zhifan's mysterious power to subdue a huge sea monster in the blink of an eye. They were already in awe of him and their expressions became even more reverent. They all got busy when they heard what he said, not daring to say anything. slack off.

In this way, the crisis when the Dogfish encountered a sea monster was easily resolved, and they had a relatively peaceful journey for several days.

A few days later, the Dogfish had entered the scope of the Sea of ​​Storms, and Wang Zhifan officially began the critical stage of searching for Forbidden Fruit Island.

Huge waves and constant storms were Wang Zhifan's biggest impression of the Stormy Sea in recent days, but these obstacles in the natural environment did not bother him much. After all, his ship had a solid structure and had been strengthened by craftsmen. There is no shortage of Poseidon's blessings. Even though it is shaking violently in this stormy sea, nothing will happen easily. What really makes him unhappy is that finding the Forbidden Fruit Island is too difficult, and it is no different from finding a needle in a haystack in a literal sense.

"What a rip-off... what kind of rubbish dungeon mission is this? If I were asked to find an island in such a big sea, would I be able to find it? Even a fish might not be able to find an island in this sea!"

At this moment, Wang Zhifan was fuming in the captain's room that was shaking violently. For the first time, he felt angry about the task set in the dungeon, because this task was too difficult, and it was a troublesome task that was deliberately designed to disgust players.

"This bullshit sea monster is also useless. He's so big and can't see well. I can't control it to communicate with other sea creatures. It can't help me much at all!"

He then complained about the big sea monster that he had corrupted with the Filthy Holy Grail. That guy had completed the corruption a few days ago and became a monster under his control. He also spent a lot of time controlling it to come to this stormy sea. He helped search for the Forbidden Fruit Island, but the results were very unsatisfactory. He put in a lot of energy but couldn't find even a trace of the Forbidden Fruit Island.

"Calm down...calm down...there should be a way..."

After his mentality exploded, Wang Zhifan quickly realized that he was in a bad emotional state, and he forced himself to think deeply on the ship that was rocking like a seesaw.

Needless to say, as soon as he thought about it, he realized that there was a force that he had ignored in the past few days, and he suddenly felt a little enlightened.

A few minutes later, inside the ship, a cabin near the statue of Poseidon.

"Old Crocodile, I want to hire your tribe to help me find Forbidden Fruit Island. The price is satisfactory to you, so you can help lead the way."

Wang Zhifan found the giant crocodile man at this moment. He insisted on keeping this guy because he was a native of the Storm Sea. Although he claimed to have never heard of the Forbidden Fruit Island, if his tribe could help in this matter , the efficiency is definitely far better than Wang Zhifan's effort alone.

"Captain, I can help you...but I have been away from my hometown for many years. I am not sure whether my tribe will listen to my advice."

The giant crocodile man thought for a moment and then answered Wang Zhifan, saying that he was not sure whether he had the face to impress those tribesmen now.

"Old Crocodile, I'm not forcing your people, but I'm going to hire them. The Golden Orchid Coin will definitely be enough. If you have the money, you can't move them?"

Wang Zhifan feels that this guy's considerations are quite redundant. Judging from his experience in this dungeon world so far, the large amount of gold coins brought by his status as a VIP player can be said to be unfavorable and has helped him solve many problems easily.

"Captain, the gold orchid coin is indeed very attractive... but my people are different from you humans. Although they also like property, they value other things more... I will take you there and you will know, but I can't guarantee that I can convince you. My people help you.”

The giant crocodile man didn't make it clear at this point, but he had already promised to help Wang Zhifan.

"Okay, then please give the navigator some directions. We have to give it a try no matter what."

Knowing that there might be some obstacles ahead, Wang Zhifan did not hesitate at all. Trouble is something that people should find ways to solve, as long as it is not something deliberately disgusting like looking for the Forbidden Fruit Island on the sea.

"Okay, Captain."

The giant crocodile man was quite stable and reliable. As soon as he agreed to Wang Zhifan's promise, he got up and went to the deck to find the poor navigator without even discussing the hiring price with Wang Zhifan.

"Although this guy is a foreigner, I feel he is more reliable than many humans after contacting him during this period. I hope he won't do anything like the old man."

There are undoubtedly some risks in sending ships directly to the Crocodile People's territory, but Wang Zhifan decided to do so. On the one hand, he felt that there should not be a particularly powerful presence on the Crocodile People's side, otherwise they would not be able to nest in the Sea of ​​Storms. This was a tragedy. On the other hand, he was really tired of this dungeon mission and couldn't pretend not to see such a big help.

So, in the next period of the journey, the Great Dogfish headed for the Crocodile Man's territory, which was not very close to the sea area where they were currently located. It took four or five days to reach it even as the ship accelerated.

On this day, when the giant crocodile man came to the captain's cabin to inform Wang Zhifan that he was about to arrive, Wang Zhifan woke up from practicing in his dream and followed him to the deck to look out.

"Captain, starting from the island in front is the territory of our crocodile people. My people should appear soon."

As the giant crocodile man spoke, he pointed to the rough sea ahead, where he could see a black island looming in the waves.

"Okay, you can help communicate with them later."

Wang Zhifan nodded, wondering why the island pointed out by the other party was so small and did not look like it could be inhabited. However, he also saw that this sea area was a little different from other places in the Storm Sea, that is, the wind and waves were slightly smaller, and the islands The like is also relatively dense.

Not long after, Wang Zhifan chatted with the giant crocodile man, and some unusual movements appeared on the sea around the Dogfish. They were humanoid figures covered with dark brown scales. They were long and thick, But without catching a ray, they broke through the waves one by one like big fish and arrived near the ship. At the same time, they showed off various weapons in their hands, such as axes, spears, and scimitars, but they were mainly long-handled weapons. .

"How dare any human dare to intrude into our crocodile-men's territory?! Warriors! Let us kill them all! Then drink all their blood! Eat all their flesh!"

The largest crocodile man was the first to swim close to the Dogfish. This guy's vicious vertical eyes first spotted Wang Zhifan and several other sailors standing on the side of the ship. His mood suddenly became excited, and he opened his eyes full of excitement. shouted the sharp-toothed mouth.

"Roar!"

"Roar!"

"Roar!" The other crocodile men in the water also became very excited when they heard his move. They responded to him with thunderous roars, just like the horn before charging on the battlefield.

"Guguza! Stop! It's me!"

The giant crocodile man standing on the deck saw this and quickly spoke to stop him. He took off the steel helmet on his head, revealing the same ferocious face as the naked crocodile men in the sea below.

When these ferocious species in the sea heard the voices of their own species, they immediately raised their heads and looked at them, and then their yellow-brown vertical pupils flashed with surprise.

"Gugucha! It's you, the traitor! How dare you come back!"

The big crocodile man, who was called Guguza by the giant crocodile man, glanced at him who had taken off his helmet, and immediately yelled, with obvious anger in his tone.

"Guguza! Don't frame me! I have never betrayed my people!"

The giant crocodile man didn't show any weakness after hearing this, and immediately suppressed him with a louder roar.

"No! Gugucha! You are a traitor! You have put on the thin skin of a weak human! You still live on their rotten wood! You are a shame to our great crocodile family! I will challenge you to a duel of dignity!"

The big crocodile man named Guguza roared in response and proposed a duel with the giant crocodile man on the deck. He seemed to have forgotten that he had just proposed to bloodbath the ship.

"Guguza! I am not coming back this time to kill you! I am bringing great benefits to the clan! Let the clan leader speak out!"

The giant crocodile man on the side of the ship spoke with great disdain when faced with the challenge, and at the same time stated his purpose.

"Hahaha! Gugucha! Is this the result of you mixing with humans! Stop hiding your cowardice! If you are a warrior, come down and duel with me!"

Guguza began to laugh loudly at the giant crocodile man, trying to provoke him into a so-called battle.

Seeing that these rounds of communication were not going well, Wang Zhifan, who had been standing next to the crocodile-man giant Gu Gucha without saying a word, felt that he could no longer remain silent, otherwise the crocodile-man giant would fall into an unfavorable situation, and future cooperation would be impossible. Facilitated by law.

So he intervened at this time and shouted to the big crocodile man Guguza in the sea below:

"Down below, I'll duel with you, okay?"

As soon as he spoke, the crocodiles in the water below were stunned, and then laughed together.

"Haha! How dare a weak human challenge a duel to the strongest Guguza! This is really ridiculous!"

"Guguza! Your food is going to duel with you! Hahaha!"

……

Amid the laughter, Gu Guza, who had been keeping his gaze on the giant crocodile man Gu Guza, slowly turned his vertical pupils to the side and scrutinized this human who suddenly made outrageous demands.

As a crocodile warrior who has experienced hundreds of battles, he is naturally very confident in his own strength, but he is not a fool who doesn't understand anything. He knows that although humans are generally weak, there are also some very scary strong ones, so he At this time, carefully examine the person who challenges you to determine the threat level of the other party.

In an instant, a sense of terror like a giant beast under the sea rushed into the crocodile man's spirit, making his hard body that was not afraid of the cold feel a bone-chilling chill, and his vertical pupils couldn't help but shrink.

"Are you going to reply? Do you accept a duel with me?"

Wang Zhifan noticed the fear that suddenly flashed in the eyes of the crocodile man, but this did not make him underestimate the crocodile man warrior, because being able to correctly judge the opponent's strength is a very important ability, and not everyone can possess it.

"Guguza! What are you hesitating about?"

"Guguza! Answer him quickly!"

"Guguza! Don't let us down!"

……

Discovering that the warrior among their tribe had suddenly become mute, the crocodile people in the nearby seawater suddenly became unhappy and collectively put pressure on the big crocodile man Guguza.

Under this pressure, everyone's focus finally responded:

"I...Guguza, I don't know how to duel with food! Guguza! If you are a warrior, come down and fight me! This is the only chance to prove that you are not a traitor!"

This guy seemed reckless and brutal, but he was very shrewd. He rejected Wang Zhifan because he was not qualified, and insisted on dueling with the giant crocodile man who had a chance of winning.

However, the giant crocodile man was not a fool. He also noticed the fear Guguza showed just now and immediately exposed him mercilessly.

"Guguza! I can duel with you! But I ask you to solve the food you mentioned first! Otherwise, I have reason to suspect that you are afraid! You are afraid of a human being whom you despise the most! You are not worthy of being a warrior of our clan!"

The giant crocodile man Gu Guza roared, causing Gu Guza below to face another problem.

"Is this a push of a ball? Is it over?"

When Wang Zhifan saw this, he couldn't stand it any longer. He simply stopped arguing. With a little step, he crossed the side of the ship and landed on the rough sea, standing on the surface of the ocean.

The reason why he can stand on the sea is naturally because he activated the source of ice to form solid ice under his feet. This is only the most basic use of this power.

"Guguza, I'm already down. I'll let you take action first."

Standing on the solid ice at his feet, Wang Zhifan then looked at the shocked crocodile man in the sea ahead and said.
