Chapter 350: Chapter 282: Development Area: Undead Strait Valley!_1

[The Stone Golem Empire once again passed through the Barrier Falls, launching a surprise attack on the Eastern Polar Island Group, with heavy casualties among the island residents.]

[In the Demigod Beylan Star World, S Level Transcendent Genius Folly Eyre, along with many geniuses from the academy, arrived at the Augus Twin Star Transcendent World to undergo transcendental marine training.]

[Alien Gate...]

Inside the Magic Cottage.

Tuck was holding the Ocean Origin Energy Steam Newspaper he had just received today, gradually browsing through the detailed content of each section.

Just as Dr. Stan Lee had said.

Above this ocean,

The Ocean Origin Energy Steam Newspaper issued by Padlin Star Voyage Island was indeed the only way to understand the outside world for those above the ocean voyages.

As he read through the newspaper, Tuck couldn’t help but let out a soft chuckle.

"The ocean is getting busier and busier, to the point that someone bought a section on the Ocean Origin Energy Steam Newspaper the day before yesterday and yesterday, openly declaring war on me."

"The two Forbidden Star Explosions at the Silver Star Fans Steam Neverfreeze Port seem to have really stirred up quite a commotion above the ocean, drawing attention to me from many..."

"Everyone is guessing that it might be the deed of a God’s Devotee."

"And on the ship..."

Thinking up to this point, Tuck couldn’t help but laugh.

"Everyone is speculating that it was Dr. Stan Lee’s doing."

"Now everyone looks at Dr. Stan Lee differently than before."

With this thought in mind, Tuck couldn’t help but smile again.

"Gaga..."

Just then, the Forbidden Crow, whose feathers were becoming increasingly blood-red and bright, hopped onto the coffee table and flapped its wings, opening its mouth wide to ask Tuck for food.

While rolling his thumb and forefinger to feed the Forbidden Crow with Life Pulse and fresh blood, Tuck also played with the little fellow.

If one put aside the Forbidden Crow’s "Forbidden Attribute," it was really just a crow chick that ate, slept, and did little else.

However, as Tuck continued to feed it, the little guy was also growing steadily.

Tuck and his crew had been navigating the Blood Demon Hand on the ocean for half a month now.

The nurturing progress of the Forbidden Crow had already reached the 10% mark.

In another half month, the Forbidden Crow would be able to reach the 20% threshold.

At that time, Tuck would be able to use the Forbidden Crow’s "True Word" ability.

It also meant that Tuck had initially tamed the Forbidden Crow, no longer worrying about the creature flying away.

The only thing that gave Tuck a headache was,

The Little Sniff Duck that Tuck had been nurturing before had become even more active since coming to the ocean.

On top of that, the ability to communicate with the Steam Magic House,

That fellow actually managed to get the Magic Cottage to secretly send it out and then sneak back in on its own.

Tuck had secretly followed the little guy for a while.

As it turned out... the speed at which this little guy swam in the water was incredibly fast.

In the blink of an eye, it was gone.

When the creature returned, Tuck took a glance.

It had been scouring the sea floor for things.

This magical creature, Little Sniff Duck, had a particular fondness for metals, gems, and the like, and possessed an exceptional Talent for sniffing them out.

Apart from that,

When Tuck meditated for cultivation, he also noticed,

Little Sniff Duck would also feed the Forbidden Crow.

All those little stones, small metals, the Forbidden Crow wouldn’t refuse any and gobbled them up one by one.

Even!

Little Sniff Duck had taken the Forbidden Crow to its own constructed magical little nest.

That was a nest the size of a desk that Little Sniff Duck had the Magic Cottage help it carve out.

When Tuck was almost finished feeding the Forbidden Crow,

"Bang, bang, bang..."

A soft, neither too heavy nor too light knocking sounded.

Tuck walked towards the Magic Cottage’s floor-to-ceiling window, and the Blood Shadow Wizard Robe enveloped him, shrouding him in a layer of shadowy mist.

Through the Soul Shadow was Tuck’s main mate’s cabin.

"Creak!" With that sound, Tuck pushed open the blood-red cabin door.

Just as he did so,

Whoosh...

The fresh sea breeze carrying the scent of the ocean hit his face, flooding into Tuck’s chest.

At the same time, the sound of the Sea Demon Ship cutting through the waves,

The calls of navy birds and deep-sea seagulls around the ship,

Plus the thunking of a large number of barnacle crew busily walking back and forth on the deck of the Blood Demon Hand, all wove into a grand net of sound, covering the entire advancing Blood Demon Hand.

The sky was clear, a vast blue with only a few wisps of clouds accentuating it.

The weather today was clear to an unbelievable extent.

You would know it was anything but clear for the past few days, with either hurricane waves or leaden skies hanging low.

Today, it was finally sunny.

"Huh..."

Taking a long breath, Tuck enjoyed the sea breeze brushing against his cheeks and the gentle sun from the depths of the ocean. He spread his arms wide, allowing the sunshine to drive away the damp, musty smell from his body.

In the Ashen Land,

One day and night were as long as a month.

Such sunny days were not available there.

But above the ocean, day and night were stable; every day was expected to be good.

"Hmm... truly delightful!"

Tuck stretched out his palm, trying to grasp the warm sunshine and the leisure of this afternoon within his hand.

But time and sunshine, like mischievous sprites, always slipped away silently when one least expected.

Even though he couldn’t grasp them now, Tuck wasn’t in a hurry.

As Tuck formally embarked on his transcendent journey, to eventually grasp the eternal.

He would be able to hold onto these beautiful moments forever.

Eternal!

It would freeze everything in time!

After feeling the warmth of the sun on his skin,

Tuck then turned his gaze to the figure beside him, bowing his head with blue short hair, the captain of Barnacle Crew No. 12, "Alex".

[Barnacle] These marine creatures attach themselves to whales, sea turtles, and ships to ensure their own survival.

Once they leave!

They easily die.

It was even more tragic for the "Barnacle crew" of the Sea Demon Ship.

The [Barnacle crew] of the Sea Demon Ship had their souls extracted and their transcendent ecology forcibly fused with that of the Sea Demon Ship.

The Barnacle crew was, in fact, part of the Sea Demon Ship.

If the ecology of the Sea Demon Ship died,

they would inevitably die as well.

If they departed far enough from the Sea Demon Ship, their transcendent ecology, lacking support from the Sea Demon Ship, would rapidly become distorted, go out of control, and ultimately, they would die swiftly.

The captain in charge of the "Barnacle crew" was the "Captain of Barnacle Crew".

Captain of Barnacle Crew No. 12! "Alex"

belonged to Tuck’s command, obeying Tuck’s orders as a member of the Barnacle crew.

"Alex" was level 36, originally a merchant.

During a voyage, he was captured by the Blood Demon Hand.

His soul was extracted, his Transcendent Sequence pried open, and he completed a fusion with the Blood Demon Hand Sea Demon Ship.

Having spent two years with the Blood Demon Hand, he was relatively a "senior" member of the Barnacle crew.

"What is it?"

Tuck asked indifferently and calmly.

"Boiling Blood Captain and the doctor invite you to the conference room to discuss important matters."

Alex immediately responded quickly.

"Hmm!"

Tuck nodded and headed towards the meeting room at the rear cabin.

Along the way, whether he encountered other Barnacle crew or members of the Boiling Blood Adventure Group, they all respectfully made way for Tuck.

After half a month of sailing upon the ocean,

everyone on the Blood Demon Hand knew

the Captain, the doctor, and Mr. Crow!

The standing of these three was unique.

The second mate and the chief mate might seem similar.

But in reality, there was a world of difference between their statuses.

On the way forward, Tuck opened the System’s search page.

Steam Three-Masted Sea Demon Ship! (Blood Demon Hand)

Origin Energy Experience: 4.5.

Talent Fragments: 1.6.

...

Looking at the 4.5 Origin Energy Experience, Tuck pondered.

Previously, when Tuck investigated the wrecked ship,

the Origin Energy Experience of the Blood Demon Hand was only 2.4, quite meager.

As soon as the Sea Demon Ship set sail on the second day, the Origin Energy Experience rapidly increased to 3.2.

In the following time,

as Steam World spurred the Origin Energy Steam Ecology and the Sea Demon Ship’s ecology to gradually integrate,

the Origin Energy Experience also rose with the tide.

Now, as Tuck and his companions piloted the Steam Sea Demon Ship "Blood Demon Hand," they had been sailing on the ocean for half a month.

Tuck had also witnessed firsthand how the Origin Energy Cycle of the Blood Demon Hand went from the initial 2.4 to the current 4.5.

4.5 was already quite a respectable Origin Energy Experience.

But for Tuck, who had come to the ocean specifically in search of a better development strategy, it was clearly not enough.

Earlier, Tuck, Dr. Stan Lee, and the Captain had discussed.

The three needed to first select a suitable target to reach.

And then to train there for some time.

The target had already been chosen.

It was the fearsome Undead Strait Valley in the Transcendent Ocean, which many people dreaded.

And today’s discussion,

was naturally about the numerous preparations for entering Strait Valley, and the initial attempts.

If the attempt succeeded,

then this would be the first development site Tuck would steadily expand into.
