Chapter 452: Chapter 277: Entering the Evil Spirit Sea Area_3

But this time, it should be actual pirates.

Rather than make a hasty choice, Mu You first teleported back to Foggy Mountain, placed the Heart of the Fog, then went to Phoenix City, fetched the panda man and returned back to the Ghost Ship.

On the upcoming voyage within the Evil Spirit Sea Area, encounters with pirates would likely increase. The Ghost Ship needed to keep moving forward while he wouldn’t be able to always be on watch, so he asked the panda man to help guard the ship for him.

[You invite the panda man, Zhou You, to help you repel the enemy.]

[The panda man, staring at the approaching pirate ship, promises to keep watch of the Ghost Ship for you, as if it were a piece of cake. However, afterwards, you must treat him to premium liquor!]

[You agreed to the panda man’s request, promising, once on Naxx Island, to treat him to as much liquor as he can drink.]

[The panda man let out a loud laugh, jumped off the ship, trod on the water as if it were solid ground, and with ease, closed in on the oncoming ship...]

[His stick hit the deck of the pirate ship, causing a cloud of alcohol fog to rise into the air. The panda man spat out a great flame and in an instant, the deck was engulfed in a raging fire...]

[The Ghost Ship quickly closed in, directly ramming the other vessel.]

[Three hundred ghost ship crewmembers possessed their respective skeletons, assuming the form of skeleton soldiers, rushed onto the pirate ship and started to battle with the pirates.]

[At the same time, it seemed as if the underbelly of the pirate ship had been attacked by some kind of marine creature. Several holes appeared on the bottom of the ship, with water crazily gushing in like fountains...]

[The pirate ship was sinking...]

[You defeated the opposing pirate ship, the pirates scrambling over each other to abandon ship and escape.]

[You ordered your ghost ship crew to scour the pirate ship, obtaining pirate rum barrels*3, two cannon ports, multiple sailing tools, and loads of timber...]

In the aftermath of the battle, various spoils were collected. The panda man gleefully accepted the rum, while all other items were confiscated as assets of the Ghost Ship.

Mu You hadn’t participated in the battle, he just wanted to see how effective the Ghost Ship’s combat power was without him.

The result was very satisfying. The panda man’s area damage was incredible, the combat power of the ghost ship crew was not inferior to humans, and the most important part was their fearlessness in battle, which makes them exceptionally fierce. In addition to this, there was the mermaid causing havoc underwater. In total, their combined combat power was impressive and would be more than enough for travel in this sea area.

After confirming this, Mu You finally logged off the game and took a short rest.

But he didn’t sleep for long, waking up just an hour later to the dawn of a new day.

At six o’clock in the morning, Little Ya and Lin Xue arrived at the pet shop early, bringing with them lots of children’s clothes and daily necessities.

All these things were prepared for the little girl, Mu You was roused from a half-awake state to open up the backpack entrance for them.

"Boss, you should rest today, and we’ll take care of the shop!" Having noticed the dark circles beneath his eyes, Little Ya knew that it had been a few days since he had last slept.

"No need, I’ll just sit for a bit..." Mu You waved his hand.

Now that he had been woken up, he felt no sleepiness at all. Besides, after raising his intelligence attribute, his need for sleep had greatly reduced. So, even though he often stayed up late, it didn’t have much of an effect on his body. Merely meditating a bit was enough to restore his energy.

The little house that had been prepared for the little girl inside the space had been modified suitably. Not only did the living space increase, but it had also been changed into a two-story structure. Inside, the storage room, bedroom, bathroom, and other spaces had been rationally divided, making it look like a delicate little western-style house.

As Lin Xue was setting up the bed and organizing the clothes for the little girl inside, Little Ya went to bathe the animals with the Evolution Light.

After wandering the inside of the backpack aimlessly for a while, Mu You was suddenly called over by Little Ya.

"Boss, it seems that the Little Spider is about to evolve!"

"Oh?"

Mu You hastily followed Little Ya over for a look.

As expected, the Little Spider’s eight legs were curled up into a ball, and its body again was covered by a layer of crystal-like material, evolving into its eggshell form, just like the last time it evolved.

By the time Mu You got over there, tiny cracks had formed on the crystal shell, with the spider inside was trembling slightly, seemingly attempting to break out of its constraints.

After several more minutes under the Evolution Light, the crystal shell finally let out a crisp sound, a crack formed on the top of the shell. Then, after successive snapping sounds, the shell cracked open.

Simultaneously, the body of the spider inside the shell split open from the back, like a zipper, leaving a gap. A moment after, a slightly smaller spider struggled to crawl out from its shed skin, from the head, to the body, and then to each of its legs.

It wasn’t until it had completely exited its molt that it left behind an empty translucent exoskeleton while the Little Spider weakly lay on its side. Seeing Mu You, it struggled again to lift its eight legs and stumbled towards him, seemingly wanting to climb up his hand again.

Mu You quickly picked it up and returned it to the Evolution Light.

The Little Spider, having just shed its skin, felt extremely soft to the touch, even its back plate felt as soft as a sponge. It would need some time to harden again.

Mu You placed the Little Spider back under the Evolution Light to continue its recovery and used the Omniscient Crystal to check its attributes.

[Gluttonous Demon Spider (11th level) (Jump enhancement, Webbing enhancement): an evolution form of the Gluttonous Demon Spider that has enhanced jumping and web-spinning abilities. Attack power 99-120, HP 10000, Magic 3000. Abilities: Spider Web, Deadly Bite, Devour, Jumping Charge, Web-Spinning.]

Before, the spider had been stuck evolving at 10th level and had finally completed its evolution, advancing to the 11th level. Its attributes had significantly improved and it had even gained a new ability.

[Web-Spinning: uses energy to quickly spin a transparent spider web in the vicinity. The Gluttonous Demon Spider can freely teleport within the realm of its web, with a cooldown of 0.5 seconds and greatly increased life and magic recovery speed.]

The new Web-Spinning ability would allow the Little Spider to teleport at will within its own web with a half-second cooldown time. Not only this, but its stamina would also greatly increase. As long as it remained within its web, its combat ability would increase multiple folds.

As for just how effective it would be and how large a web it could spin, they would need to wait for the Little Spider to recover and conduct tests to be sure.

So, next, Mu You stayed with Little Spider as it recovered.

And perhaps good things come in pairs, just as the time was about to end for the day under the Evolution Light, the Phoenix Egg that had just been brought back by Mu You a few days ago, unexpectedly let out a cracking sound and formed a crack on top of it.

"Chirp!"

Accompanied by a loud chirping sound, a massive source of fire energy suddenly gushed out from the top of the Egg. It was like a small volcano erupting, instantly turning the surrounding grass into ashes. The animals all around that were idly enjoying the scene had their fur singed and they scattered away into the distance, scampering in panic.
