We Agreed to Set Sail, but You Became the Ruler of the Deep Sea?

"Take it, this is my last gift."

As he spoke, Hanno raised his finger slightly and tapped Shane's brow.

A faint cold force entered Shane's body and lurked there.

A prompt suddenly flashed before Shane's eyes.

[You have received the gift of Hanno's residual soul. ]

[You have a preliminary understanding of the law of death. ]

Hmm?

[Law of Death]?

Seeing the prompt, Shane's eyes flashed with shock.

But before he could say anything, Hanno's body in front of him quickly shattered like porcelain.

Turned into a pale ashes.

Seeing this, An Bing, who was not far away, opened her beautiful eyes again.

Captain Shane... won?

Shane actually defeated the legendary undead Hanno in a head-on battle and killed him completely! ?

In the Seven Seas, there has never been a case of a non-legendary secret pather defeating a legend.

Not even once.

And now, Shane has accomplished this unprecedented feat.

How could this not surprise An Bing?

However, An Bing was also very clear about the urgency of the current situation.

She immediately came to Xia An: "Captain Xia En, are you okay?"

"Ahem... I'm fine."

Xia En coughed up a mouthful of blood, his face was a little sluggish, but he was not worried about his life.

At the critical moment just now.

He and Hanno chose to trade injuries for lives.

Hanno's reliance was the immortality of the undead.

But Xia En relied on the modified [Black Flame Robe] on his body.

As Moritz said, this robe does have the defensive power to withstand an attack from a legendary strongman.

This allowed him to take Hanno's attack head-on.

However, this robe was also damaged, and the secret power on it was greatly weakened.

Moreover, Xia En, who was hit hard, was not unscathed. The secret power in his body was running rampant, causing serious hidden injuries.

However, with Xia En's self-healing ability, this was not a big problem.

Although he was quite curious about the words flashing in the [Peeping Eyes], Shane knew that now was not the time to delve into this.

After a short breath.

The two immediately ran towards the direction of the cabin door.

Thanks to Hanno's big move, most of the nearby undead were eliminated.

The two arrived not far from the cabin door without any obstacles.

But at this moment.

The surrounding air seemed to be suddenly frozen, becoming sticky and heavy.

Then.

Several breaths that were not much weaker than Hanno suddenly descended near Shane and the others.

"Damn it!"

Suddenly, Shane's face became extremely ugly.

He raised his head, and the figures of those legendary undead had already appeared in his field of vision.

The breath of each figure was extremely terrifying.

It was like a mountain pressing down on the two people's positions, like a real pressure, making it difficult for their bodies to move forward half a step.

At this time, the distance between Xia En and the other person and the door was less than ten meters.

But these ten meters were like a natural moat blocking them.

It made people feel desperate.

"How could this happen?"

An Bing's mood could not help but fall to the bottom.

They had successfully sneaked into the Great Yan Palace, destroyed the node of "Xin Wang", and even defeated Hanno, a legendary undead.

But they were stopped here.

They were only one step away from leaving safely.

This situation really made her feel unwilling.

At this time, the legendary undead had no intention of communicating with them, and directly launched a fatal attack on the two.

They either attacked directly like ghosts.

Or they slapped the two people from a distance, and terrible air waves rolled in.

What made Xia En most horrified was the black light shot out from the eyes of one of the undead.

The black light carried a dangerous aura of extinction.

Let alone the injured Xia En, even if he was in his prime, he might not be able to safely take on this black light.

And the target of the black light was An Bing beside Xia En!

Just when Xia En couldn't help but feel a little desperate.

Suddenly.

The [Fire Seed] in An Bing's hand once again bloomed with bright and dazzling brilliance.

The blazing flames rose up, expanding and changing.

In a blink of an eye, it formed the appearance of a fire giant, standing in front of Xia En and the others.

The face of the giant was the Fire King who was absorbed by the [Fire Seed] before!

"Fire?"

An Bing called out his name in surprise.

But the Fire Giant looked at her with shame and attachment, with inexplicable tenderness.

This look didn't seem to be the emotion that the Fire King in history would show.

An Bing also seemed to have suddenly realized something, staring at the Fire Giant with wide eyes, with an extremely complicated look on his face.

"Let me protect you once more."

After saying this, the fire giant turned around and faced the extinguished black light.

He raised his hand slightly, and the surging flames engulfed the fierce black light without causing any ripples in the body.

When looking at the legendary undead, the tenderness on the face of the giant fire king disappeared in an instant.

Instead, there was the majesty and intimidating demeanor of a king.

He shouted in a questioning tone.

"Since you see me coming, why don't you bow?"

Instantly.

Those powerful and invincible legendary undead could not help but show a look of fear and panic.

That was the awe and worship engraved in the depths of their souls.

Even if they had died long ago, this awe would not disappear.

The next moment.

The undead knelt on the ground one after another, their foreheads pressed against the ground, and they uttered indistinct sobs.

This was to express their repentance and submission.

Not only the undead nearby, but also the ordinary undead like waves in the distance.

They all knelt down in a black mass.

It can be said that the entire Fanyan City knelt down in front of the Fire King.

This scene was very spectacular and deeply shocked Xia En's heart.

It turned out that this was the demeanor that the Fire King should have.

This was the reason why he was called the king!

At the same time.

The terrible pressure lingering around Xia En and the others disappeared, allowing them to regain their ability to move.

Shane looked at An Bing beside him: "Ms. An Bing, we should go."

The appearance of the Fire King in [Spark] broke the dilemma in front of them.

However, the collapse of the entire memory space did not stop.

And soon, it would spread to the area where they were.

On the other hand.

This [Spark] is not the real Fire King after all.

Its power is actually still fading, and it is obviously limited by time.

If we don't leave now, it will be too late!

An Bing obviously realized this, and after looking deeply at the fire giant with his back to them.

An Bing and Shane walked into the wooden door standing in the original place.

With a "bang".

The door was closed.

The broken prosperous city and the undead were all locked outside the door.

Inside the door is still the dark and decayed cabin, but it looks very reassuring.

Until walking in here, Shane's hanging heart finally let go, and he said softly.

"We are safe, temporarily."

An Bing's expression was still very complicated.

She looked at the wooden box in her hand that originally contained the [Fire Seed].

At this time, the wooden box was empty, with only the residual temperature, proving that a [Fire Seed] had been placed in it.

An Bing couldn't help asking.

"Just now, what exactly was that..."

Xia En thought about it and guessed.

"These [Fire Seeds] are essentially equivalent to a wisp of incarnation of the Fire King, perhaps faintly connected to his body."

"Just now, that [Fire Seed] absorbed the secret power of the Fire King reappeared by the [Great Flame], so it can temporarily burst out such power, right?"

"As for its triggering conditions, I'm afraid it's because...you were in danger of your life at that time."

Hearing this, An Bing couldn't help but fall silent.

"To...protect me?"

She was obviously in a very complicated mood at the moment.

However, this is ultimately a relationship issue between the couple, and Xia En, an outsider, doesn't need to meddle in it.

He simply ignored the dark ice around him, and while healing his wounds, he opened the panel to check the gift from the undead Hanno before his death.

[Law of Death]

[Type: Power of Law]

[Quality: Primary]

[Description: Hanno gradually gained his own understanding of death in his battles. ]

[In order to bring death equally to his enemies, Hanno chose death as the law when he was promoted to Legend. ]

[Because you have glimpsed the essence of the law, coupled with the gift from the undead Hanno, you can use this power of law in a rough form. ]

[Death is the end of all life...]

After reading the description, Shane felt strange.

[Power of Law], is it something that can be given?

After thinking about it carefully, Shane felt that it was not that simple.

Strictly speaking, [Power of Law] itself is not a secret power, but more like a perception.

Hanno's original intention may just be to pass this perception to Shane.

It is a bit similar to the inheritance in fairy tales.

It was only because Xia En had the special ability of [Peering into Secrets] and had even witnessed the existence of [Great Law], which directly solidified this understanding into [Power of Law], so that he could use it directly.

However, it was also clearly stated on the panel that Xia En was only using this law superficially.

To truly exert the power of the Law of Death, in-depth research or understanding is still needed.

Even so.

Being able to master a [Power of Law] at the sixth level is something that many secret pathers dare not even think about.

Perhaps in this operation, this ability can still play a miraculous role.

After a short rest.

Xia En's injuries were basically healed, and An Bing's mood stabilized again.

"I don't know what the situation of others is."

Xia En sighed lightly.

Although he eliminated a node of [Great Flame], he did not relax much.

Not to mention that there are still four nodes left.

Just solving this node put them in danger several times.

Finally, if it weren't for the remnant will of the Fire King in [Fire Seed], they would have been in great danger.

Even Shane and the other two were in such danger.

Not to mention the other members of the operation.

Shane was most worried about the people he knew well.

Even Carlales and Jane could die at any time in [Great Flame].

However, in this scattered situation, worrying was useless.

All Xia En can do is to eliminate the remaining nodes as quickly as possible and destroy the undead [Great Flame].

"Beep...beep!"

Suddenly this time.

The communicator in Xia En's hand suddenly responded.

However, the communicator displayed an unfamiliar communication frequency band.

Xia En hesitated for a moment and then connected the communication.

"Ahem...hey, is anyone listening?"

The voice coming out of the communicator was equally unfamiliar. It was the voice of a middle-aged man.

Xia En's expression suddenly changed slightly. Even though he was not familiar with the remaining members of the operation, he had at least heard their voices.

It was natural to tell that the man making the call was not a member of the action team.

So, inside this undead [Great Flame], who can talk to them with the help of a communicator?

As if sensing Xia En's vigilance, the man's explanation quickly came from the communicator.

"I am the captain of the [King], Gord."

"I just suddenly received the communicator frequency band from the military, so I took the liberty to connect it."

"Excuse me, who are you?

[King] Captain Gord?

Upon hearing this, Xia En was suddenly shocked.

I didn't expect that the man who accessed the communication band would be him!

And this also confirmed Carles and Moritz's conjecture.

Gord actually persisted in [Great Flame] for such a long time!

Xia En has truly sensed the danger inside [Great Flame].

And the fact that Gord can do this cannot be explained by luck.

Thinking of this, Xia En didn't hesitate and spoke immediately.

"We are infiltration members sent by the federal military, and we are here to eliminate [Great Flame]."

"Infiltrate operation?"

Gord murmured: "It is indeed a wise choice."

"It is almost impossible to confront [Great Flame] head-on."

"It seems... the information I delivered last time has worked."

Shane asked again.

"Colonel Gold, how is the situation over there?"

Hearing this, Gord's slightly weak wry smile came from the communicator.

"Our situation is naturally not very good."

"The entire crew of the [King] is down to ten. Even if we carry a space device to store supplies, food and drinking water are almost running out."

"Compared to these, the worst thing is actually the morale of the soldiers."

"Many soldiers feel that the federal military has given up on us."

"Without rescue and the inability to escape from the body of the undead [Great Flame], morale is extremely low, and there have even been several suicides."

"However, your arrival is undoubtedly good news, and I will inform them of this."

"By the way, how many members of your infiltration operation...are there in total?

Xia En hesitated for a moment and then said.

"There are only ten people in total."

"Ten people."

Colonel Gold seemed a little stunned and said after a moment of silence.

"That's right. Without arousing [Da Yan]'s vigilance, this is already the upper limit of the number of people, right?"

Shane explained.

"Although there are only ten people, those who participated in the operation are all the elites of the [Far North Expeditionary Force]."

"Your daughter Carles is among them."
