But his energy consumption is also faster. It takes two hours to drop an anchor. If a battle breaks out, God knows how fast the energy consumption will be.

"Puhaha - after all, I am still a native land creature. Normal breathing is happiness." After enjoying the feeling of normal breathing for a few times, Blazer immediately felt as happy as if he was reborn.

However, being able to breathe normally does not mean that underwater combat will be convenient. Every move will consume double the physical strength.

The Sirens rushed in front of them, and the deconstructed filter of the enchanting half-human, half-fish was shattered. They were not in the enchanting posture that tempted sailors on the reef, but were between the state of fish-man in estrus and the state of seductive mermaid on the reef.

This is the first time that the Siren's underwater state when not in estrus has been revealed.

The human upper body structure is covered with dark blue fish scales that blend in with the environment, and the shaking breasts that the sailors talked about with relish are naturally gone.

This thing that increases resistance in water is probably some kind of mimicry.

The Siren's attack method is very simple and crude. In addition to using singing to lure prey into drowning in the water, it uses sharp claws to tear the prey into pieces. Occasionally, it will use tough kelp as a whip to whip the enemy.

The individuals that Blaze and Dali Feizhuan encountered would rush forward and tear their prey apart with their bare hands.

The Sirens surrounded them from all directions. Their faces covered with iron-blue fish scales looked extremely hideous, and their fangs when they opened their mouths were terrifying.

Even with this honor, some sailors still insist that if they get a Siren's kiss, they will be able to breathe underwater. Even if the Siren really comes to kiss the sailors, it is estimated that they will start by eating their tongues.

Only Sirens in mating season would make kissing gestures, but at that time the Sirens' heads were fish heads, and the sailors would only cry for their parents when they saw them.

Blaze kept his body relaxed, in a defenseless posture, trying to conserve air as much as possible.

The moment Siren pounced, Blaze made a lightning-fast move and grabbed Siren's neck, and the tip of [Armor·Living]'s sharp fingers pierced Siren's neck.

【Fatal execution】

Just a small hole was opened, and Siren's body instantly stiffened, and light-colored blood gushed out.

During the entire process, the only loss was the air consumed by strangling the Siren's neck.

Occasionally, Blaze would feel a little guilty about his passive skill [Fatal Execution]. He had fought too many battles at too high a level. Not to mention [Fatal Execution], even [Lion Skin] and [Gungnir] were useless, let alone [Fatal Execution].

As for the places where [Fatal Execution] was usually useful, he honed his skills and awareness in order not to rely on his skills, guarding against them like a thief.

As a result, he now used [Fatal Execution] to end the battle without hesitation.

Compared to using [Fatal Execution] to kill the Siren at high speed and lightly, the method of using the powerful flying brick was much more violent. He also took an unguarded posture, took out a huge cannon the moment the Siren rushed over, and blew the Siren down with a close-range shot.

But Siren is a LV120 monster after all, not a small fry. Even if all its potential is focused on [Siren Song], the basic data of LV120 is still here, and one shot can only cause some superficial injuries.

After the Sirens' attack failed, they immediately swam quickly around the two people, causing the sea water to flow rapidly.

When the Sirens found that they could not use their songs to seduce sailors and sink ships, they would create underwater whirlpools, sometimes even tornadoes.

If you get caught in it, you're basically doomed, and the Sirens are creating underwater tornadoes around them.

"There's no point in fighting if you keep going like this." Blaze gave up the fight neatly. He originally wanted to gain some experience in underwater combat, but with the Sirens coming like this, he could only admit that he was not ready yet.

"You should find an enemy who is also good at fighting underwater."

The Siren, swimming at high speed, suddenly froze. Darkness enveloped them, and an even more terrifying and huge black shadow submerged them.

It was a huge black dragon, and the tiny figures of the Sirens were reflected in its cold eyes.

The sky is the territory of Vidoflnir, the bird of the sky, while everything outside the sky is the domain of the poisonous dragon Nidhogg. The birds and snakes have clear divisions of labor.

Chapter 1527 Fair Competition

With the help of the dragon-shaped snake, the remaining three anchors were successfully fixed on the reef forest, and Drifting Island No. 1 was officially fixed.

With the help of the auxiliary frame provided by the stranger, the offshore teleportation tower was successfully built, and the first teleportation tower of the [F-22] network was officially launched, opening the passage to the Golden Apple Tree Sea.

Unfortunately, the bearing capacity of the Drifting Island is not enough to support the super-large teleportation tower, so it can only pass through the sea of ​​golden apple trees in front of the teleportation tower of the Drifting Island, and then use the super-large teleportation tower in the sea of ​​golden apple trees to go to other areas.

It is worth mentioning that the offshore transmission tower on Drifting Island No. 50 uses kilograms of [Ika Black Stone] as its core.

The rest of the salvaged [Ika Black Stone] was also provided to the Eternal Kingdom to repair the teleportation tower according to the contract. In addition to the Eternal Kingdom, the Giant Kingdom Alliance and the Holy Cross Kingdom also had needs, and the [Ika Black Stone] salvaged in the past few days was not enough.

Fortunately, other drifting islands will arrive one after another, and large-scale salvage can begin soon, and the speed of collecting the [Ica Black Stone] will be accelerated.

After the transmission towers in various kingdoms are repaired, he will officially start hoarding the [Ika Black Stone] in order to obtain the rights of the King of Atlantis.

Cyrene sat in a landmark building in the sea of ​​golden apple trees, tapping the map with her fingers with a sad face. Many of the kingdom's towns on the map were circled in red.

The teleportation tower networks in those areas have been invaded, and the tycoons who hoarded the [Ika Black Stone] took advantage of the damage to the teleportation tower network of [Hermes's Traveling Hat] and took over their own.

According to the rules of the Age of Gods, at this time he should severely curse those who dared to steal from his house, turning them into small animals, and letting them bear the wrath of the gods for generations.

But, he couldn't do that.

Kullene took out a crest and knocked it on the map. It was not just out of conscience, but because he didn't want to admit defeat.

Using the power of God to solve all problems, isn't that saying that without the power of God, problems cannot be solved?

【Wisdom】 is the real power, 【Wisdom】 is the real fair duel. Even if the opponent uses 【Power】, you must respond with 【Wisdom】, only in this way can you get incredible satisfaction.

But not wanting to admit defeat is one thing, and the anxiety in front of you is another.

Kullene is used to thinking of everything in the worst possible direction, and then considering the pros and cons of the worst-case scenario.

The invasion of the teleportation tower network is not a bad thing. The [Hermes's Traveling Hat], which controls all the teleportation tower networks, has become an invisible empire without territory, and it is an empire that controls the economic key points of all kingdoms.

Sometimes, no matter how upright a person is, his huge body itself will bring shadow, and the shadow will make people feel scared.

This is just like Blaze always walks on the earth in a human way. Human Blaze is a hero with reputation in various kingdoms, but once Blaze goes one step further and becomes a god, humans will instinctively wonder where this god is from.

It is beneficial to appropriately abandon part of the transmission tower network, actively weaken [Hermes's Travel Cap], and make the image of the Invisible Empire disappear.

Even if part of the teleportation tower network is controlled by the chaebols, there is no need to worry about it being used for illegal purposes. The lords and kings will be doubly on guard against the chaebols just as they are on guard against the [Hermes' Traveling Hat].

The question is, is this the worst-case scenario?

No, the intelligence network of [Hermes' Traveling Hat] is not just for show. The city where [Azazel]'s headquarters is located also has a branch of [Hermes' Traveling Hat]. The abnormal behavior of killing foreigners was noticed by the people in the branch.

To be honest, the murderous strangers who spoke without restraint were very tight-lipped this time and did not reveal any information, but it was strange that they became normal.

The daily routine of the murderous stranger [Azazel] is to hunt other strangers, steal the drops of other strangers, or steal the heads of BOSSes, etc. In short, he does not do good things.

After robbing everything, they always have things they don’t want, and those things they don’t want will not be given cheaply to other members of [Azazel]. There is no such thing as partners in the Murder Guild.

Those that are no longer needed will eventually be sold in the pawn shop, a branch of Hermes' Travel Hat.

Pawn shops are also one of the cultures brought by foreigners. People pawn their belongings in exchange for money. If the money is not repaid within the time limit, the belongings will become the property of the pawn shop and will be sold in the second-hand market.

This is the daily routine of the Killing Strangers, and it is also the main source of income for [Azazel]. In the past few days, some relatively normal regulars among the Killing Strangers have disappeared.

After ruling out the possibility of being caught, the only possibility left is being hired.

It is hard to say who would hire a killer stranger. There are many people who have reasons to hire a killer stranger, but at this particular time, Kullene has reason to believe that it is those tycoons with ulterior motives.

Some chaebols are eager for quick success and instant benefits, so they first occupy part of the transmission tower network. On the contrary, some chaebols have no ambitions and just want to eat into a part of the market of [Hermes' Travel Hat].

Some chaebols are patient and have bigger goals, they want to compete with [Hermes's Traveling Hat], so the moment when the transmission tower network collapses is the time for them to take action.

Were they planning to attack their Drifting Island, or the warehouse storing the Ika Black Stone, or...

They came here for the same purpose: the marine resources, or in other words, for the King of Atlantis.

The reason is not important. What is important is that this is the worst case scenario he can think of.

"Have you thought it through?" Blaze knocked on the window. Kullene had been stamping there for most of the day, and it was obvious that she was holding it in.

When others are being naughty, they are preparing to do something bad, but Culene is really being naughty and is holding back her badness.

"I've made up my mind, and I'm not going to do anything."

Cyrene stamped the map, leaving the symbol of "Hermes' Traveling Hat" on it.

"The other team didn't take the initiative to attack us, which only means that they are racing against us openly within the rules. All we can do is to follow the rules and compete with them."

"It sounds like if the other party is plotting something, you can just fight back."

“No~ Even if the other side cheats and tries to play dirty, I will just find a way to defeat them within the rules.” Kullene turned the seal in her hand with a confident smile on her face.

"I'm tired of playing for my own amusement and the feeling of breaking the rules to win. Only by following the rules and defeating an opponent who is willing to break the rules to win can the opponent accept the defeat sincerely and without any excuses."

Chapter 1528 People who break the rules

In the residence of the Abyssion Group, Naylan was walking on the corridor carrying a fishing rod and a fish bucket, admiring the murals on the corridor as he walked.

This was made by a clay painter he hired specially after he had acquired a lot of wealth.

It is his habit to read it every day and review what happened in the past twenty years.

He paused at the door to the deepest room in the mansion, his eyes fixed on the beautiful mermaid who had rescued the survivors.

"What a beautiful mermaid! As expected of a legendary creature called a mermaid."

Someone sighed, and Naylan's eyes shifted slightly, reflecting the sharp blade on his neck.

A tall dark figure stood behind him, admiring the murals on the corridor with him.

"Sure enough, it's here."

Naylan was not surprised. After knowing that there was a mermaid by his side, the chaebols' first reaction had confirmed this result. They would send people to rob her.

Originally, after he completed the negotiation with the murderous foreigner, he was no longer of much use to the chaebols. The chaebols were more experienced and knowledgeable than him in organizing activities.

It was only because of his lowly status, and it seemed that he had only obtained the Poseidon Akashi through some small stroke of luck, and because of his courage, that he was not considered a competitor.

But it was different when there was a merman by his side. His identity immediately changed from a foolish person who was ignorant of the world and wanted to take advantage of the chaebols to a chess player who could really use the chaebols as chess pieces.

It is easy to imagine what the outcome would be for an ordinary person without any background but holding the key to a huge treasure.

"You are a killer sent by a chaebol, right? I won't ask which chaebol sent you. In reality, there shouldn't be a killer who is so proud of himself that he would reveal the name of his employer."

"That's right. Although I will grind you to dust and scatter your bones after killing you, and then put a few crosses on you, I still have to be prepared. What if you have a strong grudge and I kill you, and you become an undead that I can't deal with?"

The killer slid the cold blade across Naylan's neck. He did not directly cut Naylan's neck to complete the assassination, not because he had a bad taste, but because he was more cautious.

After all, mermaids are legendary creatures, and Naylan is the only person who has had contact with mermaids, so he can be used as a hostage.

"No one turns into a ghost immediately after death."

"Of course. People like you who are ambitious and courageous tend to be very obsessed. Victory was right in front of you, but it was destroyed by this unreasonable force. How could you not go crazy after failing?"

The killer shrugged, looking quite relaxed, and still had the leisure to chat with Naylan.

"You are so stupid. You actually plan to do business with the chaebols. Even those chaebols who have accumulated wealth for hundreds of years cannot change their violent nature."

"That's right. They only follow the rules when it benefits them and when they want to. Once they find that they can no longer play with and control the rules, they will break the rules." Naylan looked at the cold blade, and his equally cold self was reflected on the blade.

"The chaebols are truly a [happy] existence. They can bring happiness when they are the masters of the rules, and they can also bring happiness when they break the rules."

"You really understand. You became a chaebol just to have this kind of happiness. How enviable. Even if I do this kind of dirty work for another 20 years, I still won't be able to become a chaebol. There was some profit to be made, but killing foreigners squeezes the market."

The killer was still blabbering on and on, as if he had gotten a rare job and couldn't help complaining to his target about how difficult life was.

He was so resentful that he was only wary of the mysterious mermaid and did not notice the change in Naylan's expression after she knew from his words that he was not a stranger.

"Honestly, if you have the chance in your next life, you should go find Hermes's Traveling Hat. Those guys are really good people. To develop the ocean world, they will definitely be willing to support you free of charge and cooperate with you."

"That might just be a lie. Even good people can turn evil in the face of the ocean's nearly unlimited wealth."

"You are about to die, can't you be more open-minded? If you do this, I will mix some coarse salt and holy water in your ashes."

The killer was joking, but this joke was like holding a knife and patting the pigs and sheep that were about to be slaughtered, hoping that the pigs and sheep would be in a good mood and not affect the quality of the meat.

"If Hermes's Traveling Hat keeps telling this lie for his whole life, it will be the truth. As long as he keeps telling this lie when faced with your proposal, it will be the truth to you."

"In fact, you were sent by Hermes's Traveling Hat, and you wanted to use this method to force me to surrender to Hermes's Traveling Hat."

"It would be nice if it were true~ Unfortunately, I'm a shady guy, and the [Hermes's Traveling Hat] doesn't want someone like me." The killer tapped Naylan's neck with the blade.

"It's my habit, actually. Chatting more and gossiping more can help you relieve your resentment before you die. I don't want you to look for my employer after you die, nor do I want you to look for me."

"But many people think that this is just my bad taste before killing someone, and think that I am a pervert. This is really a misunderstanding."

"I won't die." After seeing himself on the blade, Naylan looked away and looked at the door in front of him.

"I died a long time ago."

"Oh, you said your family encountered a shipwreck?" Shazhan glanced at the mud painting on the wall, "You are really unlucky to be dragged down by your own father."

"I don't know if there is an afterlife, but when you get there, remember to seek revenge on this guy."

"Enough of the small talk," Naylan interrupted the killer's endless chatter, took a step forward, stretched out his hand and pushed the door, the blade sinking directly into the skin.

The killer then moved the blade to ensure it was always just sunk into the skin.

Considering that the hostages might prefer to die rather than be a drag and would commit suicide at the critical moment, the killer is always on the lookout.
