I'm not just human!

Discovered?

Xia Fa was startled. Whether it was his own disguise, that of his cousin and Princess Shark, they all came from that incomplete mysterious treasure, "Dancing King's Mask." How could they be discovered right away?

It's impossible for their operation plan to have been leaked, since it was just a few of them discussing it, and it happened in the subspace.

But Xia Fa immediately realized that the fat pirate had no intention of killing him, so he calmed down and instead went to meet the fat pirate.

The fat pirate, carrying a wine jug and with wine dripping from his mouth, was clearly drunk. He ran over, laughing as he said:

"Wolffish, shift's over. I'm going to take a nap. I almost thought you were going to pretend to be sick and not come again."

The fat pirate walked over in a few steps, put his arm around Xia Fa's shoulder, and casually shoved a mechanical remote control into his hand.

Immediately, he patted him hard on the shoulder, as if telling him to do a good job, and then turned and went into the underwater tunnel.

Xia Fa was a little confused. Was the security here so lax that they didn't even verify identities?

Following closely behind, two more pirates approached, this time heading towards the Father of Ten Thousand Stars and the Princess of the Sharks, respectively.

Just like the fat pirate, they immediately switched shifts, each handing one of the two men a mechanical remote control.

The mechanical remote control looked brand new, clearly commissioned to be made by some extraordinary individuals specializing in mechanical secrets. It was rectangular in shape, made of brass, and had dozens of buttons on it, each a different color, and even different sizes and shapes.

Some are round, some are triangular, and some are square, and they are all different colors.

What... is this supposed to be?

Xia Fa and the other two were somewhat bewildered as they held the mechanical remote control.

In particular, when the Father of Ten Thousand Stars and Princess Shark were searching for the Roaring Emperor's lair, they didn't dare to capture any of the Bone Spike Pirates' pirates to extract their memories for fear of being discovered by the Roaring Emperor.

Because, at the level of the Roaring Emperor, who has signed fifteen secret contracts, anyone who tries to track His tracks using such methods can be immediately detected by Him with just a simple divination or glimpse.

Even without divination or prying into secrets, His spiritual intuition might still give Him a hint!

The Father of Ten Thousand Stars did not kill the three pirates they were impersonating, nor did he ask for any relevant information; he simply imprisoned the three pirates, for the same reason.

If they were killed, or if intelligence was obtained through questioning, even if it only had a slight connection to the Roaring Emperor, the Roaring Emperor would likely have a way of finding out.

Fortunately, whether it was the Father of Ten Thousand Stars, Princess Shark, or Xia Fa himself, they all possessed the strength of an extraordinary monarch and were determined to adapt to changing circumstances.

In fact, the real, and only, key to this operation was to prevent the Roaring Emperor from noticing anything, from being even slightly wary.

This way, a fatal blow can be delivered during the sneak attack, greatly weakening the Roaring Emperor's strength and making it easier to carry out a subsequent encirclement and kill.

As for the rest, it doesn't matter. They're here to kill the Roaring Emperor, not to infiltrate and cause any damage or steal anything.

So, now that they've arrived at the Roaring Emperor's lair, this underwater cave, and are holding mechanical remote controls, the three of them are somewhat bewildered.

Looking out, one can see that this underwater cave is extremely large, covering an area of ​​tens of thousands of acres, like a hollowed-out mountain.

Not far ahead was a lava pool, covering almost a thousand acres, where scalding hot lava churned and occasionally bubbled.

A heat wave swept in, and the orange-red firelight illuminated the entire cave.

However, the roaring emperor was nowhere to be seen.

"Damn it, you three bastards, did you go out drinking and get your brains shut? Get to work!"

Suddenly, a loud shout rang out, filled with extreme impatience, coming from above the three people.

Xia Fa looked up and saw that it was a small, arched hole carved out of the rock wall of an underwater cave, in which sat a rather burly pirate.

That pirate was clearly of high status; unlike other pirates who wore turbans with bone spikes and skulls, he wore a black captain's hat with bone spikes and skulls painted on it.

More importantly, His entire being exuded an undisguised and powerful aura of angelic authority.

"The leader is coming soon. If today's strange events aren't fully resolved, you'll be the ones who die! I'll just stand by and watch the show."

The pirate rebuked them mercilessly, then suddenly took a swig of wine and stretched his neck downwards to drink it down:

"Press it! The button is right in your hands, don't you know how to press it? Are your hands broken?"

The situation suddenly became a dilemma. If they didn't comply, it was very likely that their efforts would be exposed and all their previous efforts would be in vain.

However, if you press the wrong button, it will be exposed.

Even if this pirate with the angelic rank were killed, the Roaring Emperor might become aware of it and perhaps turn around and lay a trap for him.

At this critical moment, Xia Fa suddenly took a deep breath and, with a resolute air, pressed the red button on the mechanical remote control with his thumb.

That was the largest red button, located in the center of the mechanical remote control.

Seeing him press the button with a "click," the pirate became even more enraged, but this time he roared at the pirates disguised as the Father of Ten Thousand Stars and the Princess of the Sharks.

"What are you two doing? Have your brains rusted? Get back to work!"

Upon seeing this, both Father of Stars and Princess Shark feigned fear and immediately pressed the red buttons on their respective mechanical remote controls.

Suddenly, the surface of the huge lava lake ahead began to tremble, rumbling and booming, causing a lot of lava to overflow and quickly cool, darken, and solidify on the ground.

Immediately afterwards, a huge mechanical disc, thousands of meters in diameter, rose from the magma.

The mechanical disc was filled with all sorts of bizarre corpses.

There are the most common giant jaw beasts, human-headed crocodiles, and so on, as well as eerie creatures with a status close to the Dominator, such as the Eerie Eye Monster and the Dark Flame Wanderer, and even extremely rare eerie creatures such as the Vampire Tree and the Mighty Rock Ball.

Hundreds of bizarre corpses were piled up on that huge mechanical disc.

Whether it was Xia Fa, the Father of Ten Thousand Stars, or Princess Shark, they all noticed with sharp eyes that on the other side of the mechanical disc, the side facing the magma, there was a black glass sphere embedded in the center, with dense darkness churning inside.

These bizarre corpses were scalded in the lava, their skin curled up and their bones charred. Of course, some of the bizarre creatures that were close to the level of the Sovereign had only slightly blackened skin.

However, the moment they rose from the magma, black smoke emanated from their bodies and gathered towards the black glass sphere.

That mechanical disc also seemed to be quite extraordinary, with extremely complex magical circuits etched on it, emitting a sky-blue light that constantly flickered between light and dark, as if it were also forcing out the black energy within those strange bodies.

"What...is this going on?"

Although Xia Fa made the right gamble and avoided being exposed, he also saved the Father of Ten Thousand Stars and Princess Shark from the risk of exposure.

However, upon seeing this extremely bizarre and terrifying scene, he was genuinely puzzled and felt a chill run down his spine.

The black energy forced out from so many strange bodies gathered in that black glass sphere... It looked incredibly eerie.

Of course, it can be confirmed in any case that this Crimson Agent indeed has grand ambitions.

Because among these bizarre corpses, there are not only those that are close to the Sovereign rank, but there are even two that are directly Sovereign rank!

One of them was a monster, its entire body pitch black, as if wrapped in a layer of black flame. It was bloated and obese, and at first glance it looked like a walrus, but it was covered with fleshy tumors. Inside the tumors were tiny, baby-like hands, which were now hanging limply.

Because it is already dead.

Xia Fa didn't see the other strange being of the Overlord position, probably because it was submerged among these strange corpses.

One could only vaguely sense an aura of dominance completely different from that of the strange walrus-like creature.

Now, without the pirate overseeing the work from above shouting anymore, Xia Fa and his companions understood what needed to be done.

Without a doubt, once the black aura on these strange creatures is completely absorbed by the black glass sphere, all that's needed is to press the red button on each of their mechanical remote controls, and the mechanical disc will likely descend and re-enter the magma.

Lava alone is hardly enough to harm even demigods, even if they are reduced to corpses.

Therefore, Xia Fa speculated that this was probably using the power of the seabed veins, combined with the heat energy of magma, to force out the black energy from the strange body through that mechanical disc.

As for what the black aura was, Xia Fa really didn't know. His knowledge of occultism was actually quite high, but he still couldn't recognize it.

Not only did he not recognize it, but the Father of Ten Thousand Stars and Princess Shark also stared at the black glass ball with some doubt, not knowing what it was either, and probably not recognizing the black energy either.

However, all three of them vaguely sensed that what the Crimson Agent had done seemed to be far beyond what ordinary people could imagine.

It even exceeded the comprehension of ordinary, extraordinary monarchs...

"Press it! I really want to shoot you three beasts dead. The black energy is almost completely absorbed and you still won't press it. Are you waiting to see those bizarre resurrections of the Sovereigns kill us all?"

Suddenly, another loud shout rang out, also coming from the pirate overseer above the three of them.

Xia Fa and the other two immediately pressed the red button on their mechanical remote controls. At the same time, Princess Shark's gaze turned cold, Father of Ten Thousand Stars' eyes were filled with anger, and Xia Fa raised an eyebrow.

The overseer pirate probably didn't realize that he had just completely enraged three people—three beings with the strength of extraordinary monarchs…

As the three red buttons were pressed, the mechanical disc carrying hundreds of bizarre corpses slowly sank into the lava once again.

But just then, not far ahead, on the open ground separated from the lava lake,

boom--!!!

The void was kicked open with extreme rage, and then a bald man covered in large and small bone spurs walked out.

The man was shirtless, revealing extremely strong muscles that bulged like rocks, but countless bone spurs pierced through those muscles.

As soon as He appeared, the entire underwater cave was filled with heavy breathing sounds, like broken bellows, which sent chills down one's spine.

This was coming from Him, who was wearing a respirator that resembled a black mask, covering most of His face except for His fierce, triangular eyes.

It was... one of the five pirate emperors of the sea... the Roaring Emperor!

"Damn it, they treat me like a dog. If it weren't for the fact that I could become a veteran transcendent monarch..."

As soon as the Roaring Emperor appeared from the spatial rift that He had kicked apart, he couldn't help but curse under his breath. However, the content of his words startled Xia Fa and the other two.

In such a short time, the Roaring Emperor had already become an extraordinary monarch who had signed fifteen secret contracts, but judging from this, he could still sign up to twenty more.

The term "veteran transcendental monarch" specifically refers to those transcendental monarchs who have signed twenty secret contracts.

Those who can achieve this have generally spent at least several hundred or even several thousand years in the position of extraordinary monarchs, hence the title.

In fact, Speaker Arthur, Director Edioson, Emperor Nahoron, and even Fuzairen and the old man with one half a flaming skull and the other half a withered old man, were all veteran extraordinary monarchs.

However, Xia Fa and the other two never expected that the Roaring Emperor, just because he was helping the Crimson Agent... would soon become a veteran transcendental monarch?

If this is true, once the eternal certificate is born, the struggle ends, and all forces return to their original positions, the Roaring Emperor will likely become a dominant force in the Baron Ocean, standing shoulder to shoulder with Speaker Arthur and others!

Before they could think any further, the Roaring Emperor had already turned around, his cold gaze sweeping over the three of them as if they were three ants.

"Are you out of your minds? Hurry up and raise the Mechanical Plunder Disc. I need to go to the Protoss Realm after I get the Plunder Orb."

Mechanical Plunder Disk?

Stealing the Sacred Orb?

Although they guessed that the Plunder Disc was the giant mechanical disc and the Plunder Holy Sphere was the black glass sphere, this only made Xia Fa and the other two more confused.

Because, within their realm of occult knowledge, they had indeed never heard of these two things.

However, this did not delay the next action. Xia Fa and the other two pressed the mechanical remote control in their hands in perfect unison, while putting on an extremely fearful expression.

The Roaring Emperor didn't even glance at the three of them, and headed straight for the lava lake.
