Doomsday Train, I went crazy by hoarding billions of items.

Chapter 125: Chasing!
Jiang Ran still felt a sense of unreality when she thought about this.

She subconsciously opened the map, looked at the still gray coordinates, and suddenly wanted to sigh.

I was so focused on absorbing energy that I should have paid more attention to my surroundings.

I don't know if the other coordinates still point to the same Paro Island as before.

Fortunately, the new map is not restricted, and Jiang Ran plans to explore one of the coordinates today.

This also serves as a good opportunity to avoid the limelight of that giant octopus.

I just hope it doesn't teleport directly to that guard Ryan's face...

After quickly finishing breakfast, Jiang Ran glanced at the group chat messages before setting off.

Perhaps because they hadn't gotten any results after asking "Who is Jiang Ran?" for a long time, everyone's enthusiasm quickly dissipated, and they started discussing other things instead.

The most discussed topic, however, was the sudden and violent turbulence in some sea areas.

After the daily fog appeared on the sea, what bothered players the most were the unpredictable reefs that appeared on the sea surface along with the night fog.

In particular, the marine life seems to have a certain learning ability. After discovering that it is easy to "find" fresh flesh and blood near the reef, they spontaneously gather around the reef.

The good news is that for some boats with bright lights, the gathering of fish can actually be a warning to players of nearby reefs. The bolder ones can even take the opportunity to catch some small fish, which, as long as they aren't too mutated, can barely fill their stomachs.

The bad news is that the fish learned incredibly quickly and changed their tactics, choosing to hide in the center of a more concealed group of reefs.

In this way, by the time players realize something is wrong, they are caught between reefs in front and schools of fish behind, leaving them in a dilemma.

If a ship is not sturdy enough and hits a reef, there will be no chance of leaving.

Not to mention the pirate ghost ships that patrol the fog from time to time.

Those ghost ships often blend into the thick fog, like phantoms, moving fast and difficult to detect in advance.

Furthermore, once they spot a player's boat, they will drive the player towards the reefs.

Players have to escape, guard against pirate attacks, and watch out for reefs in the sea, which is exhausting.

So much so that some people can't help but tremble when they see the sun setting and thick fog spreading.

Some people tried to simply stay still when the fog appeared, but they soon discovered that the Black Sea did not remain still in the fog as before.

If players choose to stay in place, they will soon be completely surrounded by the black sea.

The marine life in the Black Sea is not like that in the azure seas, where most of the fish are mild-mannered and have low mutation rates.

Many fish have even mutated to have sharp and pointed horns or fins. One or two fish might not be able to harm a reinforced ship, but when there are many of them, it is only a matter of time before they destroy the ship.

Later, someone discovered that the only solution seemed to be to seize an island. After obtaining the runestone, the island's access would be fully open to the player—provided that the pirates stationed there were dealt with.

In short, the dangers of the ocean may not be as direct as those of snow-capped mountains or volcanoes, but they do instill a sense of unease and fear that nowhere is safe.

And this feeling reached its peak this morning.

"Why did a tsunami suddenly appear today? Although it wasn't very big, it started with zero frames. I don't think there have been any storms or anything like that in the last couple of days." "Speaking of which, did any of you notice that huge dark shadow under the sea? I was absolutely terrified when I first saw it. It was so incredibly huge! I rowed the boat as hard as I could, but I couldn't escape that shadow at all! Even though it was just lurking on the seabed, the pressure was absolutely explosive, who knows?"

"So, I saw it too... I thought it was just a large creature like a whale."

"Even if it's a mutated whale, isn't this size a bit exaggerated?"

"The key point isn't just the size, right? Does anyone remember that different sea areas don't actually overlap? They only briefly overlap when landing on an island."

"Holy crap!! That makes it even scarier. What on earth is this?! Could it be the next dungeon crisis? Don't mess with this, even the biggest ship can't withstand this kind of construction."

"I know, it must be the sea god!"

"Here we go again. If there are gods in this game, why would they let so many people suffer? Enough already. It's better to rely on yourself than on gods. I'm wondering if the appearance of this shadowy figure is meant to urge players not to be complacent and to continue evolving their ships."

……

When a group of people came forward saying that they had also seen the huge black shadow, and some had even been almost swept away by the huge vortex, Jiang Ran frowned.

She still didn't know what this so-called sea god wanted to do.

If it's trying to "feed," all we've seen so far is that extremely imposing black shadow. Apart from a few people who nearly drove into the suddenly appearing giant vortex, no one has lost their life yet.

At least no SOS messages appeared in the chat lobby.

Based on years of experience gained from movies and books, Jiang Ran couldn't help but guess that the giant octopus might have been asleep or sealed away for some reason.

He was awakened by Majik and Jing Lian using some method obtained from the notes.

Having slept for so long, do the gods also feel weak?

So, could it replenish its energy in the following way...?

Thinking of this, Xiao Bai, who had been quietly standing beside her waiting for her to finish her meal and clear the table, suddenly looked out of the ship's side, her voice filled with uncertainty and tension: "Master! Something is..."

Jiang Ran had already sensed it herself without Xiaobai reminding her.

Under that suffocating, immense pressure, the alarm in her mind had already sounded a sharp, explosive blast!

Jiang Ran had no time to think; the teleportation talisman was already in her palm.

She had already set the coordinates in advance when she decided to explore the new map.

But she was soon horrified to discover that her teleportation talisman was unusable!
Is it a restriction imposed by the evil god's domain? But there was clearly no restriction when I used the teleportation talisman yesterday!
Is it... that its power has been restored?

Jiang Ran didn't know anything else; all she knew was that if she couldn't escape this attack, she would die here today!
The ship's violent rocking indicated that the thing was getting closer and closer. Based on the size of the shadow and the thickness of its tentacles seen earlier, Jiang Ran would have no chance of escaping unless she could teleport away from this area.

But in any case, sitting idly by and waiting for death is not Jiang Ran's style.

She used the jump without hesitation!
Thank goodness, Squidward's current area of ​​effect seems to only target teleportation items and doesn't completely restrict skills.

Perhaps because the sea inside the instance is flat, even when separated by nearly a hundred kilometers, Jiang Ran could still see the countless giant tentacles rising into the sky!
