Chapter 279 - 259: Return Voyage of the Nether Sea

Chapter 279: Chapter 259: Return Voyage of the Nether Sea

Sometimes, the answer was very simple, but the process of obtaining it was extremely difficult.

Now with the Divine Artifact, the breakthrough scar, and the firepower of Invincible Luck, it seemed that all the conditions for escaping were fully in place. If we still couldn’t escape, there would be nothing to do. The first thing Da Fei would do was take a private jet to the Imperial Capital and smash the windows of the China Hero Agent Corporation.

Now, all the sailors were on board, each in their positions, and the fleet was stationed at the giant mouth scar, ready to aim and fire. Da Fei began to check the special skill attributes of the Divine Artifact,

—Vortex Space Gate: Can create a vortex space gate on the sea that leads to another world. Can only be used at sea.

I see. Equipment that can open a space gate is definitely top-notch, worthy of being called a Divine Artifact. There’s nothing left to say, let’s break through!

The fleet’s crossbow cannons roared in unison, and the gigantic echo reverberated in the hollow once again!

"Ah... it hurts!" The moaning of the Sea Demon resounded, "Alright, mortal, you win!"

Da Fei was ecstatic to hear this, so awesome! I really was about to escape another calamity! Wahahaha!

The Sea Demon continued, "You have written a perfect ending for my script. You truly are the second person to be cursed by the Sea God, after Odyssey. Last time Odyssey left, something was left behind. I don’t need it, so I’ll give it to you!"

—System Prompt: You have obtained the "Odyssey’s Navigation Experience Golden Sheepskin Scroll"!

They gave me something? This Sea Demon is righteous! Da Fei was overjoyed to find a glowing golden scroll in his bag!

—Odyssey’s Navigation Experience Golden Sheepskin Scroll: A scroll recording Odyssey’s ten years of sea drifting experience, increases Navigator Level cap by +1 when used.

Da Fei was astonished! Level cap +1? Can it directly rush to God-level? No way, right? In the Pool of Radiance, that book of destruction I got from Siriel only gave information on God-level skills!

The Sea Demon laughed, "I don’t know what level Odyssey’s Sailing Skill is considered in this era, even in his time there was no concept of Sailing Skill or navigators, but in his era of backward ships, he did things that modern people find difficult to do. In my view, it should be God-level, right? So, mortal, cherish this scroll! It will surely save you, a mortal with limited life, decades of detours!"

Da Fei was stunned! It really can rush to God-level! That’s amazing! But the premise is I must reach Master-level Navigator first!

"Alright, stop hitting! The drama has ended!"

The water surface started to shake violently. The Sea Demon slightly opened a crack in its giant mouth, and the deep sea water roared in as if it were instantly vacuuming the air inside the giant mouth, creating a suffocating pressure like death upon everyone’s chest, making it impossible to speak and difficult to breathe! This was the feeling of being deep at sea!!

Da Fei’s face turned deathly pale in terror! It turned out that destroying me was just a mouthful effort for him! This was the power of a demigod! Unlike the clone Skira I encountered, this Vortex Sea Demon must be the original! This was an existence that mortals simply could not defeat! In front of it, I could only play the role of a dramatic actor!

Da Fei tightly grasped the Crystal Ball, immediately activating the skill!

In that instant, the Crystal Ball exploded with dazzling light, illuminating the fleshy cavity of the giant mouth, and the water around the fleet formed a rapidly spinning, huge vortex!

"As a final word, you will be sent by the Vortex Crystal to the Netherworld Sea, which is not actually controlled by the Nether God nor the Sea God. I won’t tell you that I simply don’t know who governs that place, or how to return to the surface world from there—may Odyssey’s epic guide you to the path home!"

What the hell! Is it that treacherous?

—Boom! With a massive boom amidst the enormous shock, the scene changed! Another massive crash sound followed, and a gray world appeared before Da Fei!

A silver moon hung in the sky! Nether Sea, I’ve finally returned!

—System Prompt: You have successfully passed Demigod Calubidis’s test, gaining 5 million Experience! Your Navigator Level upgraded to Expert Level! Expert-level navigators get 1 free attribute point bonus for every 2 levels, you receive 6 attribute points from the Expert-level Navigator bonus! (Note: Advanced Navigators gain 1 point for every 3 levels, Da Fei was 34th level, already gained 11 points, now it should be 17 points, gaining the missing 6 points)

—System Prompt: Coltner successfully passed Demigod Calubidis’s test, Coltner’s Navigator Level upgraded to intermediate!

—System Prompt: Congratulations! Your Vice Hero Alicia successfully completed the navigator’s test mission, officially promoted to Junior Navigator!

—System Prompt: You defeated Demigod Calubidis, achieving "Dancing with Gods," your life +50, all Vice Hero life +50, your Command Power +50, all Vice Hero Command Power +50, troop morale +1, troop life +1.

—System Prompt: You successfully defeated a demigod. Would you like to publicly announce this on the World Channel? Publicly announcing will gain 1000 world reputation points!

...

Staring at a long list of system information scrolling by, Da Fei was dumbfounded for a long time! Life truly felt like a dream!

Is this the reward for defeating a demigod? Besides getting the sheepskin scroll, the Navigators upgraded collectively! Even Alicia, who was supposed to complete the navigator test mission certified by Makar, did it! Then, the whole family gets more health, Command Power boost all-around! Including the Divine Artifact, nearly 300 units of deep sea specialties, countless ancient relics of unknown value, and the unexpected additional role of Treasure Appraiser—this return trip’s harvest was unimaginable! If gathering boat materials at the North Pole, then here it’s definitely making crazy money! This is the advance reward brought by completing an advance mission!

The entire fleet’s sailors exploded with cheers of victory, awakening the dazed Da Fei from his stupor!

Damn, what cheering, from the tiger’s den into the dragon’s pond! My return journey isn’t over! This lawless area is the real treacherous place, alright!

Should I announce it publicly? This time, I won’t make it public! I’ve already scared the whole world into wetting their pants yesterday, probably forcing the big teams to unite against me. If down goes a demigod, likely all world’s players would protest in front of the White House to delete my account? For the $1 million championship prize, this time I shall participate quietly, don’t fire the shot!

Da Fei once again examined the Vortex Crystal in hand, +10 Magic Power, +10 Knowledge.

Damn! What about the special skill? Gone! Is it really a one-time item? Or an exhausted long cooldown? Meaning it’s impossible to go back with the crystal in the short term!

Just then, the flag officer came over, "Captain, the flagship requests, where should we go?"

Where to go? Gazing at the boundless dark sea, Da Fei’s heart sank!

Although this was Da Fei’s third visit, without a Sea Chart, a sextant to fix the position of the stars, or even any knowledge about this world, where should I go? Right, where’s Old Man Riel? Can he wake up?

Suddenly, Da Fei remembered his Anemone King! Da Fei urgently checked his territory panel—it’s lit up! The Anemone King is lit! It still exists! Turns out, indeed, it requires returning to the same world to use?

At that moment, it felt like a lighthouse for returning home was ignited far away in the sky. In his confusion, Da Fei’s first reaction was: "Target, Netherworld Miracle Island!"

(Er, this Chapter contains quite a lot of data, I once again ask Mortal Mi to help me count based on Chapter 244 statistics) (To be continued.
