Chapter 175 The Chase, the Mysterious Traveling Whale! An Encounter, the Overlords of This Era!

Chapter 175 The Chase, the Mysterious Traveling Whale! An Encounter, the Overlords of This Era!

"Captain, stop nagging, you're scaring our new recruit."

A sharp yet pleasant voice rang out, and the pirates, who had been laughing and joking, immediately fell silent.

Even the captain, who looked like a giant bear but was extremely talkative, suddenly stopped talking, stretched out his thick fingers, scratched his spiky red hair, and turned around with an embarrassed smile, saying, "I'm just happy, it's been a long time since I've seen a newcomer."

Xia Fa finally escaped from his steel-like shoulders, and as soon as he turned his head, he saw a woman.

She was an extremely hot beauty, standing at least 1.7 meters tall, with a slender waist and long, beautiful legs. She was wearing a daring crop top and blue and white striped beach shorts that perfectly showcased her long legs.

She had short orange hair, bright blue eyes, and flip-flops on her feet, which were also delicate and alluring.

On this sunny beach, she strides along with her long, snow-white legs, her black flip-flops gliding on the fine sand, her slender, beautiful legs dazzling onlookers.

However, not a single pirate dared to look at her. Even if they managed to steal a glance, they would immediately look away, seemingly terrified of the woman.

Xia Fa didn't need to ask; he immediately understood why.

Because this woman with a pair of long, fair, and delicate legs is actually a demigod!

Two demigods on a ship?

Xia Fa realized that he seemed to have underestimated the ship's capabilities.

The burly but talkative captain seemed somewhat afraid of the woman, and involuntarily took two steps back as she approached.

"Dagnie, you need to control your temper, or you'll scare the newcomer away."

Dagney narrowed her eyes, revealing her pearly white teeth. Although she was smiling, it gave the impression of a threat: "What do you mean? Are you saying I have a bad temper, Captain Red Pufferfish?"

Red Porcupine immediately shook its head: "No, no, that's fine then. You should have a good chat with the newcomer, and we'll go and prepare a room for him."

After saying this, the captain ran off in a flash, and the pirates rushed onto the ship. The once lively beach was suddenly left with only Degney, who had a pair of proud, long, snow-white legs, and Xia Fa.

Xia Fa was unaware that although Degney was beautiful and had a hot body that seemed to stir the deepest desires of one's soul, she was, firstly, the strongest person on the Red Porcupine, and secondly, she had a fiery temper, like a little chili pepper that would explode at the slightest provocation.

Therefore, even though she had been at sea for several years, no man had ever dared to pursue her. They all had the desire but not the courage, and were almost all overwhelmed by her imposing presence.

"Hey, newbie, I heard you're from the Augustus family, why isn't your hair blonde?"

Daigni looked Xiafa up and down, then smiled and said, "Well, you do have a great figure, and a strong waist, right?"

Xia Fa was somewhat surprised. Are all women at sea so passionate and unrestrained?

Upon meeting him, she actually started flirting with him first, even before he had said a word.

However, while the other pirates on the ship might be afraid of this woman, Xia Fa was not.

In this world, strength is what matters. He can kill demigods and fight angels, so why should he be afraid of a demigod?

"I was recruited into the Augustus family. Didn't your leader tell you that?"

No, not at all.

Dagney giggled and suddenly wrapped her arm around his shoulder, her smooth, delicate arm pressing against Xia Fa's neck, feeling cool to the touch.

"You're quite handsome, young man. Call me 'sister,' and you'll be following me in the Wanxing Pirate Crew. I'll protect you."

Although she couldn't discern Xia Fa's rank, she noticed that Xia Fa didn't possess the aura characteristic of a demigod, so she naturally guessed that Xia Fa wasn't a demigod.

Xia Fa laughed: "How about this, you acknowledge me as your boss, and I'll protect you at sea from now on."

Dagney raised an eyebrow: "Oh, I didn't realize you had such a personality. I like it, sister. Come on, let's get on the boat first."

She released Xia Fa, turned around first, and left Xia Fa with a sexy back view that aroused the imagination, especially her long legs, which were dazzlingly white from the top of her thighs to her calves under the sunlight.

Xia Fa clicked his tongue in amazement. She truly lived up to her reputation as a pirate woman; she was incredibly aggressive and almost overwhelmed him right from the start.

But Xia Fa didn't know that Dagney was once a bounty hunter. She later offended a powerful figure and went to sea to become a pirate. However, due to her strong strength and fiery personality, she had never even been in a relationship.

The main problem is that nobody dares to pursue them.

As for why she was so flirtatious and started teasing Xia Fa right away, that's normal. After all, she grew up among bounty hunters and pirates, and being around such people naturally influenced her.

Xia Fa was walking behind her, and no matter how hard he tried not to look, he couldn't help but see her alluring slender waist and proud long legs. In particular, he saw a bead of sweat sliding down her slender waist and about to fall onto her thigh. Just as they were about to board the ship, Dagney suddenly turned around.

A smirk played on her lips, her sea-blue eyes brimming with teasing: "Why are you staring at my legs? What, want to touch them?"

Xia Fa was both amused and exasperated, and could only reply, "How did you know I was watching when your back was to me?"

A sly glint flashed in Dagney's eyes: "I guessed, so just tell me if I guessed right or wrong."

Before Xia Fa could respond, she waved her hand generously: "Alright, I'm not teasing you anymore. Come on board with me. If they haven't prepared a room for you yet, you can sleep here with me tonight."

Xiafa: ————

"Women at sea are terrifying—"

He murmured to himself, feeling a little embarrassed after being teased three times in a row.

This ship is no less impressive than Greenbeard's, and may even be larger.

As soon as he boarded the ship, Xia Fa sensed the difference.

On the Bluebeard, there was a strict class system with a clear distinction between the strong and the weak, and the whole ship was filled with a serious and cruel atmosphere.

Especially the pirates, who were completely used as tools by Greenbeard.

But the Red Porcupine was filled with a joyful and free atmosphere from the moment it boarded.

Many pirates were sitting on the deck, raising their glasses in a toast, drinking the expensive beer brewed from "golden wheat".

Although this wheat is an ordinary food and not an extraordinary plant, it is famous for its rich wheat aroma. The Golden Wheat Beer brewed from it is very famous and popular in the Star Coin Continent.

Some pirates were fishing on the deck, seemingly using special fishing rods. After all, the ship was too tall, over 300 meters high, making it like a giant ship at sea. Ordinary fishing rods wouldn't have such long fishing lines.

Occasionally, when pirates caught something, they would vigorously turn the pulley and pull up a large, lively fish—either a tuna, a grouper, or a sea bream—a wide variety of species, with everything imaginable.

Then, a pirate who was drinking immediately put down his glass, ran over excitedly, and caught the fish with flames in his hands, quickly roasting it until the tempting aroma of grilled fish filled the air.

The pirates then gathered around, sharing the large fish, stuffing steaming, milky-white chunks into their mouths, raising their glasses in celebration, gulping down beer—it was as pleasant as could be.

Besides these, there were also groups of people playing cards, rolling dice, fighting over comic books, and so on.

What surprised Xia Fa the most was that in a corner of the deck, a pirate was holding a book on mysticism and reading it clearly. A group of pirates sat in front of him, listening attentively, as serious as students.

"How's our ship? Pretty good, right? Come on, let's go to the captain's cabin first. That Red Porcupine guy is waiting for you."

Degren immediately took Xiafa's arm and pulled him toward the captain's cabin.

Many pirates couldn't help but look over, but their gazes toward Xia Fa were full of pity, as if they didn't envy him at all for being able to have such intimate physical contact with Dagney, even though they had never enjoyed such treatment.

In the captain's cabin, the burly, bear-like captain of the Red Porcupine was waiting for Xia Fa's arrival, with the first mate, second mate, navigator, and others standing beside him.

As Xia Fa entered, everyone took turns shaking hands with him, exchanging greetings, and then warmly put their arms around his back, leading him to a round table in the captain's cabin.

On the round table, there was a nautical chart spread out, with various circles and crosses drawn on it in carbon ink, some in red and some in black.

Captain Red Pufferfish looked up at Xia Fa and grinned, but before he could speak, the first and second officers immediately looked distressed, and even Dagney sighed softly.

But the Red Pufferfish Captain's voice still rang out in the captain's cabin, crackling like firecrackers, speaking at an extremely fast pace.

"Shafa, you've arrived. To be honest, we're here on the leader's orders. First, we're here to pick you up outside Rum City, and second, we're also here to keep an eye on the recently spotted pod of migrating whales."

"You've heard of a traveling whale, right? Even if you haven't, you've surely seen a traveling slime, haven't you?"

"To be honest, based on numerous follow-up investigations conducted over a century by scholars from various churches, there is conclusive evidence that traveling slimes—are actually mutated from the eggs of traveling whales!"

"Never mind, you probably wouldn't understand if I just explained it to you. Let me explain it to you anyway."

"The Traveling Whale is a type of Mystic that can roam between the Protoss Realm and our real world at the same time, and is also known as one of the most mysterious and unique beings among the Mystic Realms."

"They're similar to traveling slimes, but in some ways, they're quite different."

"In short, whether it's a traveling whale or a traveling slime, they all love to devour treasures, sealed artifacts, contracts, metals, plants, supernatural creatures, and the like in the Protoss Realm and the real world."

"But the things that traveling whales can devour, whether in terms of grade or rarity, are far superior to those of traveling slimes."

"

"After all, strictly speaking, the Traveling Slime is just a mutation of its egg, inheriting less than one percent of its talent."

"By the way, have you played the game 'The Bizarre Adventure of a Slime in the Dames district of Augustus'?"

"If you've ever played with it, you'll have a deep impression of it. That's right, the habits of the traveling whale and that subspecies of traveling slime are quite similar."

Captain Red Pufferfish spoke non-stop until the first and second mates looked pained, almost covering their ears.

On Dagney's bright and beautiful face, veins bulged on her forehead. She closed her eyes, gritted her teeth, and clenched her small fists.

"Haha, of course, that doesn't mean that traveling whales are a hundred times better than traveling slimes. They swallow both good and bad things, and sometimes they even swallow ocean garbage, like that time—"

Boom! ! !

"Dagnie, why did you hit me!"

A large bump appeared on the Red Pufferfish Captain's head. He covered his head in grievance and took two steps back: "I've been very restrained. I didn't say a word this time."

The first mate and second mate, however, wore expressions of relief, as if saying, "Thank goodness this guy is finally done." They both wanted to puncture their eardrums if they heard the red pufferfish ship continue talking.

Xia Fa listened with great interest. Others might find Captain Red Pufferfish long-winded, but he didn't think so at all.

He enjoys reading, especially books related to the occult. Even though Captain Red Porcupine speaks very quickly, it is still talking, which is much slower than his reading speed.

However, it must be said that Captain Red Pufferfish's words finally gave Xia Fa some understanding of the "traveling whale".

He had heard before that there was a very grand and solemn event at sea related to traveling whales.

Even the division of the sea areas for the five pirate emperors was partly based on the habitats of traveling whales.

But most of the people he had met before had never been to sea, so they couldn't explain it clearly.

Now Xia Fa understood. Judging from this, could it be like the game "The Bizarre Adventure of a Traveling Slime," where you search for various extraordinary items swallowed by traveling whales from their bellies?

However, according to Captain Red Pufferfish, the treasures inside the belly of the traveling whale could be a hundred times better than those in the traveling slime!

"To be honest, from what I've heard, over the past tens of thousands of years, people have found overlord-level secret contracts inside the bellies of traveling whales more than once! Of course, although the total number hasn't exceeded five, it still means that they are possible to find them, right?"

Seeing that Xia Fa not only showed no impatience with his chatter but was listening with great interest, Captain Red Pufferfish ignored the pain in his head and continued his introduction: "This time we are chasing a group of traveling whales. If we can successfully catch them, hehe, that would be great. Then we can teach you how to tell which traveling whales have good stuff inside."

Is it really possible to extract a top-tier secret contract from the belly of a traveling whale?

Xia Fa's interest was completely piqued. You see, what he needed most right now was a top-level secret contract, especially one that hadn't been signed before; he would accept any offer.

After all, one day, I might sign a top-level secret agreement that I've never signed before. If I could get my hands on it in advance, wouldn't that be preparing for the future?

Especially now that the Crimson Proxy is watching him closely, he is even more eager to improve his strength.

Although I can barely escape the pursuit of the Crimson Agent by relying on the burning sensation that surges through my body when I am in danger, plus the secret ability of the Gate of Stars, wouldn't it be better to sign one or two more overlord-level secret contracts and become stronger so that I don't even need to run away anymore?

However, at least for now, at sea, Xia Fa is not too afraid that the Crimson Agents will suddenly attack.

Because without a doubt, this extraordinary monarch who signed the agreement for eternity has now been "the Roaring Emperor".

He and Marshal Gaius were both on his radar at the same time.

He probably won't dare to show himself easily until some time has passed and he has avoided the limelight enough.

Moreover, the mysterious emperor still resides in the Baron Ocean.

Aside from the five pirate emperors who were already at sea, any other ruler or extraordinary monarch who dared to appear would have to think twice before attracting the attention of that mysterious emperor, and the Crimson Agent was no exception.

In fact, this was one of the reasons why he dared to kill Pompey directly in the Augustus family's palace.

Xia Fa understood that it was not advisable for the Crimson Agent to appear now, which gave him an opportunity to advance his understanding of the secret contract and sign the next overlord-level secret contract.

In particular, his next secret contract is the [Mystic Singularity], a supreme-level secret contract that no one has ever seen before.

"Are these migrating whales difficult to catch?"

Xia Fa asked curiously, looking up at the captain of the Red Porcupine.

He really wanted to see this legendary traveling whale for himself, and especially wanted to try and see if he could get anything good out of its belly.

Captain Red Pufferfish chuckled and was about to speak.

At this moment, the short and stout first mate chimed in, "That depends on the opportunity. Sometimes it's difficult, sometimes it's easy. If they have signed either a 'Spirit Contractor' or a 'Spirit Servant,' they'll be a little easier to capture."

He seemed afraid that the captain would ramble on and on, so he quickly gave a brief summary.

Although interrupted, Captain Red Porcupine quickly added, "If someone has signed the supreme-level contract of 'Protoss Mage,' capturing them will be even easier, and we can use the contract abilities within 'Protoss Mage' for tracking!"

Xia Fa asked doubtfully, "So, wouldn't the overlords who have signed with the Star Spirit Master be more likely to discover which traveling whales have good stuff inside?"

Captain Red Pufferfish chuckled: "Pretty much, but the Celestial Spirit Master's covenant is a top-tier secret agreement, how easy is it to sign one? I've been at sea for almost thirty years, and I've only ever seen one."

He immediately added after he finished speaking: "Moreover, the signatories of the Celestial Spirit Master are just more likely to sense the good things inside the traveling whale's belly than others, but they are not necessarily able to find them accurately."

"To succeed in this line of work, you still need experience and accumulation, as well as some closely guarded skills."

"The reason is quite simple. After all, the traveling whale is a mysterious spirit. Its skin and thick blubber have long been tainted by the chaotic information flow in the Protoss Realm, which can naturally isolate it from spiritual intuition and most other means of detection."

"You know about divination by interference, right? It's the same principle. The skin and blubber of a traveling whale can simultaneously act like iron filings, disrupting the flow of time and interfering with the curvature of space."

"The signer of the Celestial Spirit Master is more skilled at contracting Celestial Spirits and various other spirits. Of course, they wouldn't have the special ability to probe the treasures inside the belly of a traveling whale through its skin and fat."

"But don't worry, once we catch a migratory whale, I'll teach you how to tell which migratory whales have good stuff inside, hahaha!"

Before they knew it, the captain of the Red Pufferfish had launched into a long tirade, leaving the first and second officers utterly exasperated.

Dagney, feeling somewhat exhausted, shook her head: "Captain, you should stop torturing Xia Fa. If this continues, his ears will get calluses just like ours."

Captain Red Pufferfish scratched his head again and chuckled, "I think Brother Xiafa really enjoys listening to me talk, don't you think so?"

Seeing that Xia Fa was the only person on the ship willing to listen to him seriously, Captain Red Pufferfish immediately became friendly with him and started calling him brother.

Xia Fa smiled slightly: "Actually, although Captain Red Pufferfish seems to talk a lot, it actually shows that he has a warm heart, so I think he's alright."

Upon hearing this, both the first mate and the second mate were stunned.

This Xia Fa—isn't he the young master of the Augustus family? How come he has such high emotional intelligence?

These words deeply moved the person on the red pufferfish boat. Tears immediately welled up in their buffalo-like eyes, and they rushed over to hug Xia Fa tightly: "Xia Fa, you understand me so well! Everyone else thinks I'm long-winded, but you're the first person to say that, sob sob sob."

Dagney had a look of mixed amusement and exasperation on her face. Seeing that Captain Red Pufferfish wouldn't let go of Xiafa, she could only sigh and shake her head.

Fortunately, Captain Red Porcupine finally realized his own imposing physique and didn't hold Xia Fa for too long, fearing he might suffocate. He quickly released him, only keeping his arms around Xia Fa's shoulders: "Good brother, I heard that this time, quite a few young overlords from our planet Caligi will be coming to the Baron Ocean. Don't worry, although I can't beat them, I definitely won't let them bully you! At worst, I'll take you with me!"

He clearly regarded Xia Fa as a young master who had come to the sea for adventure on a whim, but he had no problem with Xia Fa to begin with, and now he completely recognized Xia Fa's emotional intelligence.

In fact, because of Marshal Gaius's relationship with the Father of the Stars, the Stars Pirate Crew would occasionally receive a young master or lady from the Augustus family.

Among the young members of the Augustus family who went to sea, Frederick was the most outstanding and gained the recognition of the pirates.

It's not that other young people are lazy or lazy; in fact, they are all quite hardworking, have a good attitude, and even possess a noble demeanor. The problem is, they're not strong enough.

The Baron Ocean is home to pirates who cherish freedom and adventure, but for that reason, they need the strength to enjoy freedom and adventure to their heart's content.

Pirates under any pirate emperor always held the strongest in high regard.

The difference lies in the fact that the pirate emperors, the Roaring Emperor and the Thousand-Faced Prophet, command pirates who only respect the strong and may even bully the weak.

After all, the pirates under their command were synonymous with bloodshed and crime, and they would even rob the catch of poor fishermen, let alone the weak on the ship.

The other three pirate emperors tended to protect the weaker members of their own ship.

The first mate and the second mate exchanged glances. Putting everything else aside, although they couldn't discern the rank of this young master named Xia Fa, who was probably carrying some kind of secret treasure to conceal his aura, his emotional intelligence was truly high. He had won the captain's heart with just a few words.

Degren, however, was smiling as she looked at Xia Fa, seemingly lost in thought.

Seeing that Captain Red Pufferfish mentioned those young overlords, Xia Fa immediately seized the opportunity to ask, "How many overlords will be coming to the Baron Ocean this time?"

This question stumped Red Porcupine. He scratched the back of his head and hesitated before saying, "In the past, there might have been one or two each year, many of whom were familiar faces. Or rather, as long as they used their secret contract abilities, it was easy to tell from afar what kind of overlord-level secret contract they had signed. As for this time—there probably won't be more than ten, right?"

There are fewer than ten young overlords who have come from the entire planet of Caligia?

So, the total number is probably less than twenty, right?

Keep in mind that these are hundreds of countries in total, each with a population of hundreds of millions!

Xia Fa clicked his tongue in amazement. It seemed that he had underestimated the probability and difficulty of signing a hegemon-level secret agreement.

Dagney nodded in agreement, a rare occurrence. "This time the situation is different. With that Mysterious Emperor here, the rulers and even the extraordinary monarchs of the other twenty-one continents should not dare to show themselves. This way, many young overlords will not be afraid of being intercepted and killed by the rulers of hostile countries. So almost all of them will come, unlike in the past when there were only one or two. There may be more than ten, but not by much."

The first mate exclaimed, "This is truly an unprecedented event. If any overlord can stand out among these many young overlords, he will surely be remembered in history. His deeds will probably spread throughout the entire planet Calig.

Captain Red Pufferfish agreed, "Yes, our Barron's Ocean, with its abundance of migratory whales, along with its rare and mysterious realms and ruins, is already enough to attract those young overlords."

"Now, another top-tier secret contract is suspected to be about to be released."

"Oh right, there's also that thing the Mysterious Emperor is chasing—although we don't know what it is, it's probably the reason why many young overlords have come to this grand event. Although they certainly wouldn't dare to compete with the Mysterious Emperor for it, they probably all want to see it from afar."

He said three sentences in a row, then looked at Xia Fa and patted him on the shoulder: "But good brother, don't be discouraged. Although you haven't signed a top-level secret contract, with your emotional intelligence, you might not do any worse than them in the future!"

Xia Fa chuckled inwardly. Judging from the situation, only the black-robed angel and the Father of Ten Thousand Stars probably knew that he had signed the Silver Throne, a supreme-level secret contract.

This is normal; the Augustus family is keeping this strictly confidential and naturally cannot disclose it to the outside world.

What comforted Xiafa was that, whether at yesterday's banquet or today's breakfast, the angels like Chalcos or the demigods like Axo, while wanting to keep the news a secret, had specifically instructed Xiafa that if he encountered danger, he should not hesitate to use the Silver Throne, as survival was the most important thing, no matter how many people were watching.

Xiafa guessed that they were probably just afraid of being recruited by the Selene royal family and becoming their son-in-law.

The captain of the Red Porcupine then pulled Xia Fa back to the round table and pointed to the nautical chart.

"This sea area is the territory of our Myriad Star Pirate Crew. It's huge, isn't it? It's almost the size of the Star Coin Continent."

"And all we need to do is cross this strait to meet the leader's 'Starship'."

"As for whether we'll encounter migrating whales along the way, that depends on luck. They usually appear in these few places: here, here, and this one."

boom!!!!!

A deafening roar came from a great distance, followed by a violent shaking of the earth. The entire Red Porcupine was rocked, and waves surged and rose into the air.

Fortunately, everyone was a superhuman, so there was no problem with them not being able to stand steadily. However, Captain Red Porcupine and Dagney immediately supported Xia Fa, one on each side.

Because Xia Fa was wearing the secret treasure suit that cost 50,000 gold pounds but for which he had only paid a little over 20,000 gold pounds, his aura of rank could be concealed—this was one of the best features of that suit.

Therefore, none of the people on the ship knew his rank, but they all politely refrained from asking and simply chose to protect him silently.

Xia Fa didn't explain for the time being. In any case, he had no intention of hiding his Silver Throne ability. When the time came, he would make his move, and everyone would naturally understand whether he was strong or weak.

"What happened?"

Degney's expression suddenly changed, and with a clench of her slender fingers, painted with bright red nail polish, a fiery red dagger instantly appeared in her hand.

Xia Fa then noticed that the color of her fingernail polish and toenail polish were both bright red, which made her look more radiant and elegant.

Especially her feet, with their snow-white skin and bright red toenails, were just as alluring as an Orff perfume.

However, Auf's feet were delicate and small, while Dagney's feet were alluring and enchanting, like those of a fairy.

Of course, Xia Fa didn't think too much about it. After all, he wasn't a pervert who liked to stare at people's feet. He rushed out of the captain's cabin and looked in the direction from which the loud noise came.

To his surprise, the pirates who had been resting and having fun on the deck were now on high alert, each drawing their scimitars or short swords, as if they were ready to fight at any moment.

Captain Red Pufferfish, along with Dagney and the others, rushed out of the captain's cabin and looked in the direction from which the loud noise had erupted.

But immediately, both they and the pirates on the ship showed expressions of extreme astonishment.

On the far horizon, a cloud with large, watery eyes was continuously showering down candy rain while simultaneously unleashing lightning strikes at a mobile armored vehicle tens of thousands of meters tall.

Furthermore, pumpkin carriages loaded with bombs moved across the sea as if it were flat ground, rushing towards the 10,000-meter-high motorized armor.

The mechanized armor was painted entirely in white, with an orange "V"-shaped decoration on its head. It carried a massive, mountain-like magic-powered mechanical cannon on its back, and each arm was equipped with a bright orange-red high-temperature cutting blade, which it was currently wielding to slash at the pumpkin carriages.

With a single swipe of its blade, all the pumpkin carriages snapped in two and exploded not far from it.

A circular light shield immediately appeared on its body. The light shield was a sky-blue color and was composed of diamond-shaped light membranes, which easily blocked all the explosions.

Whoosh—!

This 10,000-meter-tall mobile armor suddenly spewed out blazing blue-white flames from its back, shooting into the sky. Its six slender white mechanical wings spread out like wings, and its palms were raised, aiming at a certain empty spot on the sea surface.

Suddenly, the six white mechanical wings lit up, followed by the light emanating from its palms, which then coalesced into a beam of light.

Beep beep beep beep beep—!

Extraordinary power converged, and two blue-white orbs with a diameter of a thousand meters were blasted out from its palms, whistling as they headed towards that place!

The sea surface was originally empty, but suddenly a sandcastle rose up.

boom!!!!!

Another loud bang, similar to the one before, shook the sand castle violently. The sand melted into a lava-like liquid that flowed down, but the sand castle actually withstood it!

However, almost the next moment, the sand castle cracked open, revealing one of the figures, which was also ten thousand meters tall.

The figure was clad in a crimson robe and platinum-gold armor, with a dragon breathing fire embossed on its chest. It had black hair and black eyes, but its pupils held a hint of eerie blue. It was none other than—

Prince Justinian!

Beside Prince Justinian, a mist-scaled dragon flew around him, constantly spewing mist in an attempt to interfere with the mobile armor that stood ten thousand meters tall.

Xia Fa was somewhat surprised, firstly because he did not expect that Prince Justinian, a prince of such high status, would also come to the sea to participate in this grand gathering of young overlords.

Secondly, I didn't expect that he would actually fight with another young overlord, and they were evenly matched!

Capable of creating mobile armor tens of thousands of meters tall, equipped with a mountain-sized, super-massive magical cannon, and possessing a high-temperature cutting blade that even Daponz's mother, the dean of the Magical Mechanics Department at the Royal Masinari Mechanical Academy, has reportedly failed to develop.

Without a doubt, this is a young overlord who has signed the "Forge of All Things" overlord-level secret contract!

Moreover, like Prince Justinian, he is also an angel!

The Forge of All Things—that's a supreme-level secret contract that every extraordinary being in the field of mechanical secret contracts dreams of!

Daponz, in particular, was constantly dreaming about the Forge of All Things. This was something his classmate had told Xiafa when they were gossiping about it at the Mist God Hunting Grounds.

Previously, Xia Fa didn't understand why the extraordinary individuals specializing in mechanical contracts were so obsessed with the All-Encompassing Forge, a supreme-level contract. Now, he finally understood.

A mobile armor towering ten thousand meters high—this is simply the dream of every extraordinary individual in the field of mechanical secrets!

Moreover, this is only an angelic rank, yet it can create such a gigantic mobile suit. What about a ruler rank? Wouldn't it be almost half the size of a planet?

"My goodness, two angelic overlords have started fighting!"

The captain of the Red Pufferfish clicked his tongue, finally recovering from the shock, when he suddenly waved his thick arm: "Men, move the ship closer!"

Should we move closer?

The pirates looked at their captain in surprise, wondering if he had lost his mind.

If they had gone that far, the aftershocks of the battle between the two angel-level overlords alone would have turned them and their ship into dust!

Facing the astonished looks of his crew, Captain Red Pufferfish couldn't help but smile wryly, "What I mean is, let's move the ship to that island on the other side, quickly, as far away from these two ancestors as possible!"

Xia Fa narrowed his eyes and silently observed the battle between the two angel-level overlords.

To be honest, he felt he could hold his own against them for a couple of moves, but that was about it; any more and he'd be outmatched.

After all, these weren't some critically injured, dying angel-level Black Abyss Worm; they were two human superhumans with angelic rank who had signed a supreme-level pact!

Among all beings of the angelic order, they are at the very top!

Xia Fa realized that although he could fight ordinary angels, he probably wouldn't be able to defeat an angel who had signed a supreme-level secret contract.

Of course, I think that once I fully understand the "Gate of the Stars," a secret contract of the historical overlords, and especially after I obtain the original secret technique, I will be able to fight them even without signing the "Mysterious Singularity."

Xia Fa still has this much confidence.

The two overlords fought at sea, and Yan was itching to join in.

"Prince Justinian not only subdued the Mist-Scaled Dragon, but also advanced the progress of the Secret Contract? Just now, when he stood up, even I couldn't sense his presence—this must be a new Secret Contract ability from the fairy tale world, right?"

Seeing that Prince Justinian was locked in fierce combat with the mobile armored vehicle that was tens of thousands of meters high, the waves generated by the battle alone were thousands of meters high and were about to reach the ship.

Suddenly, Prince Justinian turned his head and seemed to spot the ship.

Immediately, Jing Qiu suddenly raised his hand towards the massive, ten-thousand-meter-long mobile armor, making a ceasefire gesture.

The massive, 10,000-meter-long mobile armor suddenly paused, but then, surprisingly, it nodded.

The rear hatch of the mecha opened, and a handsome young man with brown curly hair, freckles, a baby face, and exceptionally clear eyes flew out.

The 10,000-meter-tall mobile armor then began to shrink, eventually transforming into a palm-sized mechanical sphere covered with intricate magical patterns and densely packed secret runes, which flew into Nian's sleeve.

Prince Justinian's figure also shrank instantly, and everything—from the sandcastle to the clouds with their large, watery eyes, and the pumpkin carriages loaded with bombs—disappeared immediately.

He turned and flew towards this side.

Captain Lan and his blind pirates' expressions changed instantly, but not out of fear, but out of awe, a deep-seated reverence and respect.

"Prince Justinian—as expected, he hates us. Is he coming to visit us on our ship?"

Captain Lan Cipollino murmured to himself, then immediately gestured to the first mate. The first mate promptly led some pirates who had signed secret pacts related to the fire element to the ship's galley to prepare a grand feast.

Prince Justinian flew directly onto the ship, and the clear-eyed, brown-haired prince landed on the deck as well.

"I'm sorry, I met Avalon at sea and we were just testing our skills. I didn't expect it to cause such a fuss and affect everyone."

.

Prince Justinian's face broke into a warm and gentle smile, which made everyone feel as if they were bathed in a spring breeze. Many of the trembling pirates were no longer afraid.

With clear eyes, Shi Nian simply nodded to everyone, as if to say that he had given his approval.

Beneath her brown curly hair, her slightly chubby face revealed no discernible expression, but her clear, innocent eyes, seemingly unaware of the ways of the world, possessed a captivating charm.

Xia Fachu was startled. Avalon?

Isn't that the legendary mechanical genius who defeated Prince Justinian ten years ago and successfully entered the Earth God Kingdom of the [Silver Universe]?

At the same time, he was also hailed as the greatest genius in the history of the Royal Academy of Mechanical Sciences in the past century!

Upon hearing this name, Xia Fa was completely certain that the 10,000-meter-tall mobile armor could only be created by someone who had signed the All-Encompassing Forge, a secret pact of historical overlord level.

Because Avalon hates the signatories of the Forge of All Things!

During the bonfire parties at the Mist God Hunting Grounds, Daponz and the students of the Masinari Mechanical Academy always spoke highly of Avalon, expressing both admiration and envy. As a result, Xia Fa had a very deep impression of the name.

Captain Lancitong bowed slightly, rubbed his hands together, and chuckled, "Prince Chastine, what are you saying? It didn't affect us at all. It's just that our ship accidentally passed through this sea area and disturbed your enjoyment."

"To be honest, I had heard of Prince Justinian's reputation and was eager to see the secret abilities of this overlord-level secret contract in the fairy tale world. Today, I have seen it and it has truly broadened my horizons."

"And this gentleman, since your name is Avalon, could it be that you're the legendary mechanical genius of the Augu Kingdom, appearing only once every hundred years? I—"

Just as the blind man was about to start his rambling again, Avalon nodded, his chubby face showing innocence, his voice as ethereal as a spring flowing through a secluded valley: "Qiu Wo, have you ever heard of my name?"

Fearing the captain's continued chatter might anger the two angelic overlords, the first mate quickly interjected, "We've heard of it, of course we've heard of it! For the past ten years, your name has been known throughout the entire Kingdom of Augu!"

Avalon nodded, his expression indifferent: "So clever—"

Prince Justinian smiled. Although he had once hated Avalon's defeated opponent, there was no embarrassment on his face. On the contrary, it gave people the impression that he had completely let go of the hatred and no longer cared.

Just as He was about to say something, Prince Justinian suddenly turned his gaze and spotted Xiafa in the crowd.

Prince Justinian's face immediately showed surprise, and he exclaimed, "Shafa? What are you doing here?"
