Chapter 262: Chapter 243: Leviathan’s Egg_2

Wait! Could I just air-drop down and grab the egg in a flash? The problem is, if I die, I’m bound to drop it! Could I bounce back up before the guards react?

Heck! I’m already here, so even if it means dying, I’ve got to give it a shot!

Da Fei took a deep breath and began to carefully calculate the cooldown interval for using the Cliff Walker. The Cliff Walker needs a short recharge after shooting the web before it can retract, so Da Fei had to start spraying mid-air, then grab the egg in the water and retract the line to fly up!

Ready! One, two, three! Jump!

A shadow plummeted straight down from the top of the cave! As it fell midway, a web shot out with a swoosh!

—Splash! The sound of water broke the silence of the instance as Da Fei fell into the lake!

—System Prompt: Your Stealth State has disappeared!

—System Prompt: Reconnaissance Skill warning! You have entered the warning range of a powerful enemy!

And just at this moment, all the fishmen on the shore and in the lake turned their heads towards the splash in unison!

Damn! Taking advantage of the accelerated descent, Da Fei desperately swam forward. It’s all or nothing!

Da Fei felt several giant shadows swimming towards him, and he gritted his teeth, disregarding everything! Closer! The golden egg was right in front of him! And just then, Da Fei noticed something strange underwater!

There’s an array under the egg! Beams of Demon Light were charging the array from all sides? A glance from the corner of Da Fei’s eye confirmed the fishmen waving bone wands at the lake’s bottom around the egg, powering an array that fed Demon Light into the center.

Damn! Could it be an array sealing the egg so it can’t be taken? Does that mean players have to destroy those arrays too? I knew high-level instances wouldn’t be this simple! Damn!

And just then, the golden egg was within reach!

—System Prompt: You have obtained the Leviathan’s Egg!

Da Fei was internally shocked! He got it! He could still take it! And just then, a large shadow loomed over Da Fei!

—Retract!!!

With a bang, Da Fei shot up like a rocket, and at that moment, he felt water pressure urges coming towards him! Da Fei closed his eyes! It’s make or break now!

—System Prompt: You successfully dodged the attack of the Elite Three-headed Snake Guardian!

Oh yeah!

—Splash! Da Fei burst out of the water and soared into the sky!

Bro, I’m out! Hahaha! But it’s not over yet!

At this moment, the shrill horn alarms of fishmen in the instance sounded, as countless fishmen swarmed out from who knows where, packing the lake surface and shores densely with thousands of them! Holy crap, so that means in normal circumstances players would have to fight all these fishmen to clear the instance! How many spellcasters would that take? Okay, I’ve got it now, let the future players worry about it.

Before my God-level Reconnaissance Technique, I can face a multitude without flinching!

Da Fei carefully climbed to the top of the cave, returned to the instance entrance, picked up his air tank again, and then stepped out of the instance without looking back! I succeeded? Did I just succeed like that?

It wasn’t until the scene changed, and the cold seawater pressed around him that Da Fei confirmed, he really had succeeded! Just then, a ding sounded!

—System Prompt: You have obtained the Leviathan’s Egg in an incomplete manner, receiving the task "Leviathan’s Anger"!

—Task Hint: The Leviathan Mother can sense the calls of the hatching young, and the angry Leviathan will search for the young!

What? A screwing task! What does "incomplete manner" mean? Damn it! So it means I should have destroyed that array normally? Damn, I knew it wasn’t this simple!

Of course, now’s not the time to think too much, it’s not over yet! While constantly losing health, Da Fei desperately swam to the surface of the water, and in an instant, the crowd cheered, "The warrior is out!"

Bato, Anlicia, Selvia, and a bunch of wives came up to comfort and heal him.

Bato laughed heartily: "Friend, you must have gained something, right?"

When in trouble, of course, you ask the NPC! Da Fei shivered, nodding, pulled a large half-human-sized golden egg from his bag, and said solemnly, "Leviathan’s Egg! But I’m in trouble, it seems this egg can connect with the mother!" At this moment, Da Fei noticed the egg had turned into a red-name status!

The crowd gasped in shock.

Bato was shocked, "Friend, you have indeed gotten yourself into big trouble, but—" Bato pressed his ear to the egg and listened, then chuckled, "But this egg is too young, not showing any signs of life yet. In any case, friend, you have time, and you will definitely find a way to tame it."

Da Fei exclaimed, "Tame?" of course, must! This egg’s a damned red name!

Bato frowned uncertainly, "It’s said that when a duck or swan hatches, it recognizes the first creature it sees as its mother. Maybe it’s like this, I believe your future is boundless and solving this egg issue is nothing for you."

Indeed! The reason I have time is probably that the game is progressing too far ahead, right? As the world’s number one solo egg-snatcher, I can’t handle one egg?

Da Fei’s confidence skyrocketed: "That’s right! There’s nothing I can’t handle!"

Bato laughed heartily: "Also, any high-level sea monster incubation pool requires ample nutrition, minerals, and magical power, which is why Leviathan chose a giant dragon carcass as the incubation pool. Ordinary seawater won’t do, so you must find a good place, preferably in an inland lake where the Leviathan Mother is unlikely to locate it."

I see! Don’t I have a good place? The Pool of Radiance! Full of resurrective Light Energy! And it’s underground, how could the Leviathan Mother ever find it? Damn, it’s destined for me to have a Divine Beast! I’m awesome!

Da Fei laughed heartily: "Thank you, General, for your guidance, I’ll definitely properly place this egg."

Bato laughed, "I’m rooting for you, friend!"

And just then, a dwarf soldier reported, "General, the floating barrels are ready!"

Bato laughed heartily and waved his hand, "Release the barrels!"

—"Release the barrels!" With the shouts from the salvage ships, water splashes churned the entire sea’s surface, instantly covering it with mud and sand!

—"Salvage successful!"

Bato exclaimed with excitement, "Hoist it up!"

As the mechanical arms of the salvage ships pulled, the massive bones of the giant dragon emerged from the sea surface, causing the entire fleet to roar in jubilation!

Bato laughed heartily, "Don’t celebrate too soon, haul it back!" (To be continued. If you enjoy this work, please visit Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please read on m.qidian.com.)
