It turns out I'm a second-generation demon.

Chapter 750 Dorgon Arrives (4000 words)

Why is the Black Dragon in the sea? It doesn't make sense. Why didn't it come out earlier? It's been out there fighting wits with Baoze's patrol fleet for so long.

We've fallen for their trap!

Aquaman Angie Charles immediately understood that the reason the black dragon hadn't appeared was because he was afraid of alerting the enemy, making him afraid to go into the water, or that the dragon would escape first.

In fact, after discovering the three-no traces, the Sea King did observe for a while, teetering on the edge of death, before he was certain that there was no trace of another ancient demon powerhouse in the seabed before he continued his activities.

According to the Superpower Association, it would be reasonable for a helper like Black Dragon to be sent to the Pantheon to provide assistance.

After all, that's the main battlefield, the key to victory or defeat.

Aquaman was full of inner monologues, but the reality was somewhat different from what he thought. The reason the black dragon entered the scene now was because it had gone to make a meal.

It only gets half full every day at Baoze, its stomach is never satisfied. Now that it's finally gone to sea, it's time to fully enjoy the taste of abalone.

Black Dragon is like a naughty child. The three no's have limited control over it. The sea is its domain, but once it's in the sea, it doesn't care about your orders.

This human female is not Li Xianyu.

Fortunately, it was quite loyal and knew there was important business waiting for it, so it came over immediately after eating and drinking its fill.

In just a few seconds, the black dragon had approached "Aquaman" Angie Charles, stopping a hundred meters away, suspended on the cold, dark seabed.

During this process, Angie Charles had already thrown the flare hanging on her waist, the bright light illuminating the dark sea like a star in the dark universe.

The flare slowly descended.

Angie Charles thus got a clear look at the black dragon; its head was as big as an attack helicopter, with protruding facial bones covered in shield-shaped scales. A thick mane floated smoothly in the seawater.

The long mouth shape reveals faint fangs.

Its shape is quite similar to the "dragon" in Chinese mythology, but there are subtle differences.

The flare only illuminated its head, while its body remained hidden in the dark seawater.

In the dark waters hundreds of meters deep, silently confronting such a monster would likely cause an ordinary human, or even someone of ordinary bloodline, to suffer a heart attack on the spot.

Aquaman was seeing the legendary Black Dragon for the first time, the only creature currently existing in the world in the form of an ancient demon.

Despite being enemies, at this moment, he still marveled at the wonder of creation and the wonder of nature.

Only nature could give birth to such a terrifying creature that combines perfection and grotesqueness.

"You are very strong, extremely strong." The black dragon vibrated its throat and spoke in human language.

Sound travels through water, and ordinary people certainly wouldn't be able to hear it clearly, but with Aquaman's hearing, he could still hear it clearly.

However, he doesn't understand Chinese.

Seeing that he didn't speak, the black dragon's scarlet pupils suddenly became more wary.

Experience from movies and TV shows tells it that silent enemies possess extremely high status and should be treated with caution.

"Do you dare come with me into the water...?" Black Dragon habitually blurted out a polite line, then suddenly realized he was already in the water and changed his lines on the spot: "Will we keep fighting?"

Having said that, the black dragon slightly raised its head and looked down at the human powerhouse with its pupils, which were as big as hula hoops, as a sign of provocation.

Aquaman felt a chill. Although he couldn't understand what the dragon was saying, its demeanor and eyes revealed the arrogance of a high-ranking being in the evolutionary chain, looking down on him, a human descendant, with disdain and contempt.

The oppressive aura of a superior being was overwhelming, making one feel as if they were falling into an abyss.

Even a master like him was somewhat affected.

Is it announcing my defeat as a victor... or is it trying to negotiate with me... or is it asking me something? But I don't speak Chinese, so we can't communicate at all.

Angie Charles was tense, as if facing a formidable enemy.

The Sea King's silence made the Black Dragon increasingly wary. It swam rapidly around the human who was halfway to the Ultimate Realm, its enormous shadow sometimes on the left and sometimes on the right.

The dragon's body stirred up chaotic undercurrents, and in the pitch-black seabed, the flares had long since sunk into the deeper waters and disappeared without a trace.

Aquaman took a deep breath, expanding his superpowers to their maximum extent, while closing his eyes to amplify his hearing and sense of touch.

The two sides faced off in the dark sea. After a moment, in the Sea King's perception, a torrent shot out from the side.

It was still swimming, not coming any closer to me; this was a test...

Aquaman waved his hand, unleashing a torrent of water in return. The two forces collided, and the icy seawater instantly boiled.

Amidst the raging undercurrents, the black dragon opened its massive fangs and lunged at Angie Charles.

Undercurrents surged forth, overwhelming everything.

With a powerful leap, Aquaman Angie Charles used the undercurrent to create a near-perfect arc, grazing the black dragon's mane and skillfully avoiding its attack.

The human body is not designed to avoid such attacks, but the ocean is also Charles's domain.

At the same time, he drew his military knife from his waist and plunged it into the black dragon's back. Clang... a blinding spark flew, and then the knife pierced the black dragon's body, creating a wound tens of meters long due to the opposing movements of the two.

Crimson blood gushed out, spreading like smoke in the seawater.

Angie Charles felt excruciating pain all over her body, and then realized with a start that she had been scratched by the bristling scales, leaving her bloody and mangled.

The two sides confronted each other again, but this time, the situation was different.

"Aquaman" Angie Charles is becoming increasingly wary.

The black dragon realized that it was stronger than this human.

"I am an ancient demon. Humans are lowly creatures. Why should I be afraid of him? He can't kill me, but if I hit him a few times, he'll be finished..."

Having gone without fighting for some time, it almost forgot that it was a miracle of creation, a favorite of heaven and earth (as Dorgon said).

The wound on the back was insignificant; it healed in an instant. In contrast, the wound on this human descendant had only just stopped bleeding. The cells were struggling to divide, but were powerless to heal the wound in a short time.

Like a child suddenly realizing something, the black dragon excitedly turned its head and pounced, launching another attack.

The speed of "Sea King" is not slow, and its movement ability in water is even stronger than on land. The Black Dragon, on the other hand, is not flexible enough due to its large size. Both of them are half-step extreme water-based abilities.

Thousands upon thousands of tons of water equal thousands upon thousands of tons of power.

They can easily unleash power at the extreme level in the water, which is why Black Dragon used "Dare to fight me in the water?" as his catchphrase.

And once Aquaman Angie Charles is in the water, even Baker Richardson can't do anything to him.

Muda muda muda... Ora ora ora... constantly splashing against each other in the water.

For a time, the fight was fierce and evenly matched.

A dozen minutes later, "Aquaman" Angie Charles began to consider quitting.

Having reached his level, he now has a clear understanding of the difference in strength and whether he has a chance of winning.

He has no chance of winning.

First of all, both of them have water-based abilities, and it must be admitted that the Black Dragon's ability to control water is stronger than his.

Secondly, he was merely a human being with limited physical strength, while his opponent was hundreds of meters tall, enormous in size, and possessed inexhaustible stamina.

Finally, this guy's self-healing ability is simply insane.

Without any unexpected strategies to defeat his enemy, he had no chance of winning.

Rumble!

A muffled thunderous sound came from the black dragon spewing water.

"Aquaman" Angie Charles fights against the water, battling against tsunami-like waves.

At the same time, he sensed a surging undercurrent beside him, which was the black dragon's tail sweeping towards him.

Aquaman pushed off with both feet and shot straight up from the water like a missile, just barely avoiding the dragon's tail swing.

But the distance was too close, and the energy it carried grazed his lower body, causing his legs to immediately lose sensation. The next second, intense pain surged through him.

Both legs were already a bloody mess, with comminuted fractures, even after he had applied water armor to himself beforehand.

In a battle between experts, it's impossible to avoid getting injured. But if the opponent has a healing buff while you have none, then it's impossible to fight.

"We need to leave quickly and return to international waters. I don't believe Baoze would dare attack our ships on the high seas." Angie Charles was determined to leave. He lifted hundreds of tons of seawater with both hands and hurled it at the black dragon.

The black dragon smashed through the overwhelming undercurrents with a single headbutt, and using this boiling current, Angie Charles dived away, like an underwater fish.

"If you're so capable, fight me for three hundred rounds!"

Black Dragon was overjoyed, feeling that he was indeed a miracle of creation. He had suffered at Li Xianyu's hands before, not because God didn't love him, but because Li Xianyu was too abnormal.

......

Sanwu stood atop the patrol ship, gazing down at the churning sea in the distance.

There, the water elements were completely disordered, and the battle on the seabed stirred up wave after wave, each ten meters high, with huge amounts of bubbles rising to the surface.

The patrol boat was like a withered leaf floating on the sea, bobbing up and down.

We cannot get any closer, or the patrol boat will be in danger of capsizing.

Sanwu did not rashly join the battle. As a former assassin, his ability to judge the situation was ingrained in his bones.

Although they are both at the half-step extreme level, the other is a water-based ability user, while she is not good at swimming. Going there would just be sending her to her death.

Forcing someone to give something away for free is not in line with the style of a top-tier assassin.

The patrol ship's commander was equally astute, refraining from launching torpedoes unnecessarily. The reason was simple: given the Black Dragon's size, dodging the shockwave of an explosion would be far more difficult than with the Sea King.

Attacking teammates to protect the enemy is not the style of Baoze employees.

At that moment, in the command center, an employee staggered off the deck, trying to steady himself as he shouted to the motionless figure on the deck roof, "Headquarters message!"

Sanwu lightly leaped down, his bangs disheveled in the sea breeze, his clear, empty eyes, like glass, staring at the employee.

Her eyes were very beautiful, but they lacked spirit and gave off an aura like a doll.

The employee handed over the communicator he was holding.

With a blank expression, Sanwu took it and held it to his ear.

"Sanwu, how's the battle going?" Thunder King's voice came, tinged with urgency.

"They're fighting." Sanwu's answer was concise and to the point.

"No need to fight anymore. Now, immediately take the Black Dragon and return to headquarters by helicopter. Don't take the waterway." After saying this, the Thunder King added, "If it disobeys, tell it that Dorgon is here."

"Okay." Sanwu nodded.

Actually, if we had waited a little longer and given the Black Dragon some more time, it might have been able to kill the Superpower Association's Aquaman. But that's just how Sanwu is; she only accepts orders and doesn't think too much about the battlefield or ask why.

Hanging up the communicator, Sanwu pulled a walkie-talkie from the wallet tucked into his belt: "Black Dragon, retreat!"

The walkie-talkie crackled with the sound of an explosion, and the slightly distorted roar of the black dragon.

At that moment, the black dragon, who was chasing Angie Charles, heard the voice coming from the underwater walkie-talkie implanted in his ear canal.

I'm about to kill him... I'm not leaving... I won't get any credit, and Li Xianyu will definitely laugh at me... So it ignored Sanwu and continued its pursuit.

That's how kids are; they always want to do something, to get praise from their parents, and to see people around them give them a thumbs up.

They stood tall amidst the praise.

"I must kill this human descendant today, no matter what..." the black dragon thought to himself.

Just then, a calm, emotionless voice came through the walkie-talkie: "Dorgon is here!"

(?Д?#)

Leave quietly!

The black dragon made a 360° turn underwater and swam back the way it came.

As Aquaman Angie Charles sensed the enemy behind him had left, the fear that felt like death was chasing him vanished instantly, and the pressure disappeared.

You're not going to kill me?

Why?

He was both happy and bewildered.

On the other side, Black Dragon returned to the vicinity of the patrol ship at a speed that broke his own life record. Its size rapidly shrank, turning into a one-meter-long sea serpent, and it manipulated the water currents to send itself onto the deck.

Its paws on its belly pressed against the deck, its head held high, its tail slapping against the deck with a "smack, smack," just like Cuihua liked to slap a table with her paws: "D-Dorgon...won?"

His voice trembled.

It was terrified of Dorgon, like a son fears his father. Dorgon and the Black Dragon shared the same origin, but Dorgon was stronger and naturally exuded an aura of power.

Most importantly, it possessed inner dignity. During the more than one hundred years it was kept in the well, it was frequently trained by Dorgon, much like a beast tamer training a wild animal.

Upon hearing the name Dorgon, the Black Dragon reacted with fear as a conditioned reflex.

The outcome of the battle in the Pantheon was unknown to Sanwu, so he did not answer it.

"A helicopter will pick us up later," Sanwu calmly explained, without trying to soothe Heilong's emotions.

About twenty minutes later, the sound of propellers churning the air came from the sky, and an armed helicopter sped over.

But just then, the black dragon suddenly bristled—no, its scales bristled.

The fine scales unfurled, the dragon's body taut and straight, and it cried out sharply, "Dorgon is here! He's here! I can smell his scent!"

Its emotions exploded instantly, and the entire dragon was dominated by fear.
