Chapter 649 Capture and Persuasion to Surrender

Yin Jiuyue said, "Captain Wu, I just checked. The enemy hasn't retreated; they're just guarding outside. They're trying to trap us."

Wu Ying, however, was not worried and said, "The other party was frightened by Shadow Dragon, so it seems they dare not come in easily."

"As for holding out against us, that would be a waste of effort."

"With a few of us dark-attribute ability users here, we don't need to go to the riverbed to leave. We can just choose any direction and leave the mouth of the dark abyss."

"Alright, Jiuyue, I'm giving you a task. Break out from another direction immediately and send a message to Yangshan. Be sure to tell Mr. Liang about the situation here."

"I will describe Gu Jianye's special ability in the letter, especially his special ability."

Wu Ying quickly came up with a way to break the deadlock; the only option now was to ask Yang Shan for help.

Yin Jiuyue nodded and said, "Yes, Captain!"

Han Xiangman immediately said, "Gu Jianye's ability to use words is really strange. Could he have some means of detecting when we leave the island?"

Upon hearing this, Luo Hongmian chimed in, "That's right. If he were to say that no one could leave this floating island without my knowledge, wouldn't that be equivalent to a detection method?"

"This can actually work?" Chen Guangming couldn't help but ask.

Everyone's expressions turned serious. Wu Ying said, "I'm afraid it really can work. This person's ability is too strange. When he entered the island and fought against Shadow Dragon, I saw with my own eyes that he repelled all the dark attribute energy around him, making it impossible for Shadow Dragon to get close to him."

"This ability is simply too incredible."

"Captain, no matter what, we have to try to find out," Yin Jiuyue said.

Wu Ying frowned, and Han Xiangman suddenly said, "I have an idea, but I don't know if it will work."

"Captain Han, please tell me quickly." Wu Ying looked up and asked hurriedly.

Han Xiangman whispered, "We can't go on the surface, so maybe we can try going underwater."

"Now that the floodwaters are frozen, the underwater world is pitch black, which is like another kind of Dark Abyss."

"In the underwater world, wouldn't it be easier for you to leave if you entered shadow mode?"

"The key is that in the underwater world, there are landmarks and buildings as reference points, so you won't get lost."

Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up, and they showed delight.

"How could I not have thought of that!" Wu Ying slapped her thigh and stood up excitedly.

He immediately said to Yin Jiuyue, "Jiuyue, you... no, Captain Han, I will handle this personally."

"Captain, I can do it," Yin Jiuyue said quickly.

Wu Ying shook her head: "The underwater world is complicated, there are too many mutated beasts, and your main attribute is still too low. I'm not at ease."

"Captain Han, after I leave, you will be in charge of everything on this island. You must remain patient and not go out no matter what happens outside."

“You’ll be safe here on the island, protected by the Shadow Dragon. But if you go outside, things will get complicated.”

Han Xiangman nodded and said, "Don't worry, I understand."

Wu Ying immediately bid farewell to everyone, and Han Xiangman and Yin Jiuyue accompanied him to the canyon.

Below that canyon, there used to be a rushing river, but now that winter has arrived, it has long been frozen and covered with a thick layer of white snow.

The group followed the canyon all the way to near the edge of the Dark Abyss, and then began to break the ice.

Before long, they smashed open an opening more than a meter wide. Wu Ying said, "That's enough for now. I'll go out first, get around them, and then find a way to send a message. Don't worry."

Han Xiangman asked, "There's no air underwater, how will you breathe?"

"With the water-repelling talisman, it's enough to support me for a long distance."

"That's good. Take care on your journey."

After saying goodbye, Wu Ying jumped into the lake without saying a word and disappeared quickly.

The floodwaters were icy cold, so Wu Ying quickly took out a water-repelling talisman, activated it, and then sped underwater.

Fortunately, he is a dark-attribute ability user, capable of seeing in the dark, so he doesn't have to worry about being ambushed by underwater mutated creatures.

Following the canyon, we rushed out of the floating island at the mouth of the dark abyss.

He looked up and saw that the ice was frozen dozens of feet deep, and the snow covered the surface so tightly that there was almost no light underwater.

This place is almost indistinguishable from the Maw of Darkness, the only difference being that the lack of light here is not due to the pervasive presence of dark energy.

Wu Ying swam rapidly underwater, looking down, the darkness unable to obscure his vision.

He could see buildings covered in seaweed and shells of marine life, still standing in the underwater world.

They were silent and still, like cold corpses gazing at themselves in the abyss.

Wu Ying felt a chill run down her spine, always feeling that a terrifying monster might emerge from those buildings at any moment.

He quickly swam to a nearby overpass, where cars covered in mud were submerged by algae, and skeletons could be seen inside.

Wu Ying looked at the nearby road sign; much of the text on it had been corroded and was no longer legible.

He continued swimming forward, and soon saw a sign on a building ahead that read "Lu Zhi Grand Hotel".

Luzhi is a small town in the Linjiang City Industrial Park. Wu Ying immediately discerned her exact location.

Following the direction I remembered, I continued swimming forward.

He continued on his way, and before long, his expression suddenly changed. He quickly entered shadow form and concealed himself.

Just as he took cover, he saw a group of people swimming quickly past in front of him.

In shadow form, Wu Ying stared wide-eyed at the team before him in disbelief!

In this team, everyone has the appearance of a mermaid and wields weapons such as bone harpoons.

Moreover, the teams were neatly arranged, and the members would occasionally chat with each other.

This is actually a merman patrol team!

"How could a patrol team of merfolk appear in this deep sea?"

Are they human mutants?

Wu Ying was puzzled, but he had important matters to attend to and no time to investigate.

They immediately avoided the patrolling merfolk and swam rapidly towards Yangshan. Meanwhile, outside the Dark Abyss.

Gu Jianye, who had been guarding the perimeter, suddenly opened his eyes.

His gaze sharpened as he scanned the surroundings and said, "Someone's coming out!"

"Huh? No, we've been looking for ages and haven't seen anyone come out."

The group of subordinates quickly shook their heads, indicating that they hadn't seen it.

Gu Jianye ignored them, quickly stood up, and muttered, "I know where you are!"

The next moment, a sharp glint flashed in his eyes, and the threads of cause and effect flowed.

A scene appeared in his eyes.

Beneath the dark water, a figure swam rapidly underwater.

"Underwater!"

Gu Jianye suddenly realized, and immediately leaped up, following the causal line at lightning speed.

In just a few minutes, he had already run several kilometers and sensed Wu Ying on the other side of the causal line.

Looking at the thick snow, Gu Jianye sneered and suddenly punched the heavy snow!

"Boom!"

The snowflakes exploded, and the ice below shattered with a deafening roar.

Wu Ying, who was swimming rapidly underwater with her head down, was suddenly startled to see the ice above her head shatter with a crash!

As large amounts of snowflakes and ice blocks fell and sank with a crash, numerous bubbles gurgled and churned.

At the same time, a ray of light shone down, illuminating the cold, dark underwater world.

The mutated fish around were instantly attracted by the light and swam frantically toward the ice cave.

As Wu Ying was wondering what was going on, she suddenly felt her body being uncontrollably swept up by the school of fish, and she was swept backwards towards the ice cave.

"Depend on!"

Wu Ying was shocked and furious. She quickly activated her supernatural ability and transformed into a shadow to hide.

However, at that moment, a jellyfish with a dazzling light suddenly lit up among the fish.

This interrupted Wu Ying's Shadow Step ability, and he was immediately pushed out of the ice cave uncontrollably.

As soon as she got out of the water, Wu Ying shivered from the cold. Just as she was about to curse, someone grabbed her by the back of the neck.

"Heh, kid, you think you can escape my grasp just by escaping underwater?"

Wu Ying turned around and her expression immediately changed: "It's you!"

The one who did it was Gu Jianye!

Wu Ying didn't understand how the other party discovered her or how they pulled her out of the water.

He was about to take action without hesitation.

Gu Jianye shouted, "My body is a hundred feet tall; I cannot be transformed into elements!"

In an instant, Wu Ying's body trembled, and his body, which was about to disappear into the illusory image, immediately stiffened.

His ability to enter the shadows is, in a sense, elementalization.

At that moment, Gu Jianye gave a sharp shout, actually directly prohibiting elementalization.

This practically crippled all of Wu Ying's abilities!
His greatest strength is his ability to enter the shadow world and merge with the shadows.

Since they cannot transform into elements at this moment, they can no longer escape into the shadows.

His expression changed drastically in an instant: "You—"

Gu Jianye grabbed Wu Ying's neck with one hand, and the immense force made it almost impossible for Wu Ying to resist.

Gu Jianye stretched out his other hand, and a collar was about to be put around his neck.

"Dark attribute ability user, it seems you are in charge of the Dark Abyss Mouth. With you here, I no longer need to worry about not being able to enter this floating island, hehehe."

blah blah blah!

The collar was placed directly around Wu Ying's neck.

Wu Ying felt all her supernatural abilities freeze instantly, and she could no longer use them!
He exclaimed in shock and anger, "A sealing talisman?"

Gu Jianye raised an eyebrow: "Oh? I didn't expect you to know about this energy talisman? Heh, I thought only the Misty City had this kind of rune."

Wu Ying's face was grim. With his supernatural abilities sealed, he had no power to resist.

He took a deep breath, calmed himself, and said, "Mr. Gu, does it have to be this way? We don't have any deep-seated hatred between us, do we?"

"You probably don't know this, but Mr. Liang from Yangshan owns four floating islands. We have not only conquered the Yellow Earth Divine Plain and the Mi Yuan Rainforest, but also eliminated the Water God Cult, the Earth Mother Cult, and the Spirit Energy Cult. Now, Mr. Liang has already broken through the genetic recombination barrier."

"What's your motive for making an enemy of Yangshan?"

"What benefits did Chang Yuntao give you? Tell me, perhaps our Mr. Liang can give you the same, or even ten times more than Chang Yuntao gave you!"

Upon hearing this, Gu Jianye shook his head slightly: "Tsk tsk tsk, you're quite a talent. In this situation, instead of begging for mercy from me, you actually tried to persuade me to surrender?"

Wu Ying smiled: "Because I know that the person behind me is much stronger than the person behind you. Even if you catch me, your final fate won't be much better than mine."

Gu Jianye clicked his tongue and said, "Heh, why should I believe you? Do you know the Lord of Fog City? Are you so sure that the Mr. Liang behind you is definitely stronger than the Lord of Fog City?"

Wu Ying said, "Of course I'm certain that Chang Yuntao is now at the gene recombination level."

Gu Jianye smiled and said, "Of course, genetic recombination means they are no longer simply human. They have broken the limits of human biology and reached another level."

"Has the Mr. Liang you mentioned also reached that level?"

"good."

Gu Jianye shook his head and said, "I don't believe it. If he's really as powerful as you say, why didn't he kill Chang Yuntao after offending him? Why did he keep him alive to refine the Misty City?"

"Heh, it's not that he doesn't want to, it's that he can't do it, right?"
