"The first clue in [Shimen Clues 1] is to cross a sea..."
Yiye Zhiqiu took out the "Fragment" of the sea and walked to the edge of darkness to use it. Suddenly an endless sea appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
"As long as we cross this sea, we can follow the second prompt and enter the grassland." Moonlight Bunny looked excited. She felt that she was one step closer to her father.
"This map is the best!" the irritable Dragon King said with a smile: "We can fly forward on the Dark Dragon King until we reach the end of the sea."
"Yes, we are flying in the sky, even if there are monsters in the sea, it will not affect us." The giant god also nodded: "We can easily enter the next map."
So, everyone sat on the Dark Dragon King and soared in the wind on the sea.
Blowing the sea breeze and looking at the vast sea, everyone felt very comfortable.
However, more than three hours later, they realized that something seemed wrong.
"It's been more than three hours, why haven't you flown out of this sea yet?" Yiye Zhiqiu frowned and asked strangely: "According to the flying speed of the Dark Dragon King, it has exceeded thousands of nautical miles. Why haven't you seen the edge of the map yet? "
Yao Guang was a little nervous: "Are we lost?"
"It shouldn't be." Zhang Ze also felt strange. He had been controlling the Dark Dragon King to fly forward without changing direction midway, so he shouldn't have gotten lost.
"Is it possible that the direction we are heading in has always been wrong?" Xiaoniao Yiren interjected: "Would you like to try changing the direction?"
"I think it's best not to." He looked around calmly and said, "The maps of this level of the Demon Realm are all square, so as long as we move in a fixed direction, we will reach the end sooner or later... I think, There’s something wrong with this sea!”
Everyone looked at him, and the giant god asked in confusion: "What's the problem? There is nothing here except sea water."
"I wonder if you have ever heard of Devil's Sea?"
"It is a triangular sea area. It is said that ships and planes will disappear when they enter this sea area. Even birds are not immune. Some people speculate that a strong magnetic field may be at work."
Zhang Ze pondered: "You mean, the sea we are in now is also the devil's sea?"
"The possibility is very high." Shandao Bubu analyzed emotionally: "The magnetic field affects the brain of living creatures, so they will become disoriented."
He patted the Dark Dragon King under him and said, "Maybe your Dark Dragon King has also been affected."
After thinking about it, Zhang Ze said to the giant god: "Boss giant god, is the guidance scarecrow we synthesized before still there? Take it out and try it."
The giant god immediately took out the guidance scarecrow from the system backpack: "Fortunately I didn't lose it."
He placed the guiding scarecrow on the back of the Dark Dragon King and asked: "Scarecrow, where is the end of this sea?"
Swish, brush, brush!
In the astonished eyes of everyone, the guiding scarecrow started to spin crazily on the spot, like a top, non-stop!
"What's going on?" Hangzui's eyes widened and he asked in surprise, "Why can't it stop?"
"This shows that the guiding scarecrow has also been affected and cannot discern the direction." Zhang Ze sighed and said, "It seems that Rang Fuqing was right. There is something wrong with this sea!"
"Damn, I thought this map would be the best, but I didn't expect it to be the opposite!" The irritable Dragon King angrily punched the Dark Dragon King on the back, eliciting a roar from the Dragon King.
"There's no point in getting angry. We have to find a way to get out of here quickly." Zhang Ze looked around. There was nothing but sea water here. There were no clouds in the sky, and there was only a big sun above their heads.
"There are no clues in the sky. We can still go to the sea and have a look."
Zhang Ze stood up and prepared to jump into the sea.
"Brother Rakshasa, what do you want to do?" Moonlight Rabbit asked in surprise.
"I'll go to the sea to check the situation. Maybe I can find a way."
Seeing the worried expressions on the faces of Moonlight Bunny and others, Zhang Ze comforted him: "Don't worry, I have the [Dragon Girl's Kiss] BUFF on me and I can breathe underwater. I'll be fine."
"Then be careful." Tian Tian's melancholy reminded: "Come up when you encounter danger, and we will go to pick you up."
Zhang Ze nodded: "Don't worry."
After that, he jumped into the sea from a height of tens of meters. The sea surface rippled in circles, and the man sank into the sea.
"..." Liu Yueying looked at the sea, a look of worry flashed in her eyes, but in the end she pursed her lips and remained silent.
Sunlight passes through the sea water and is projected into the tranquil sea. The light is colorful, as if the light spectrum is bent and emitted.
Zhang Ze did not sink into the deep sea immediately at first. He first stayed at a position of more than ten meters for ten minutes. He felt that [Dragon Girl's Kiss] could indeed ensure that he could breathe underwater, and then dived towards the deep sea.
Everything in the seawater was normal. Zhang Ze didn't notice anything. It wasn't until he reached the bottom of the sea and saw the seabed that he discovered that there was an undersea palace here!
The palace was dilapidated and its architectural style could not be seen. Zhang Ze was not sure whether it was the Dragon Palace of the Dragon King in Eastern legends or the palace of the Western god Poseidon.
"Huh? This seems to be a huge magic circle!"
Zhang Ze opened his eyes wide and saw a huge circular array appearing on the foundation of the collapsed palace. It was emitting a faint green light and looked particularly eye-catching on the dark seabed.
"Could it be that this thing affected the magnetic field and caused us to get lost?"
Zhang Ze swam toward the magic circle. He tried to destroy the magic circle, but found that the magic circle could not be destroyed.
At this moment, a large group of black shadows quickly came towards Zhang Ze from all directions!
They are extremely fast, have a spindle-shaped body, gill slits on both sides of their heads, sharp teeth, and erect triangular fins on their backs.
Yes, they are sharks!
Zhang Ze keenly felt something approaching him. He immediately turned around and found that he was surrounded by thousands of sharks!
"Oops!"
Zhang Ze immediately entered combat mode and prepared to summon the clown and vampire count.
But to be fair, the clown and vampire count's combat effectiveness in the sea must be compromised. They cannot persist for too long in the deep sea without oxygen.
It's okay for the vampire count to say that the clown is still in a human body after all and can easily drown.
Therefore, Zhang Ze did not plan to get entangled with these sharks, but prepared to break out of the encirclement and return to the sea.
He waited for a while and found that the sharks did not attack him, but began to circle around him.
"What are you doing? Playing games with me?"
Zhang Ze looked surprised.
Then he remembered the effect 2 of [Dragon Girl's Kiss]: the sea tribe's favorability increased by 100%.
"Could it be that these sharks have a crush on me?"
Zhang Ze tried to get closer to one of the sharks, but the shark just slowly wandered in the sea, letting Zhang Ze get closer.
After touching the shark's smooth body and seeing that it had no reaction, Zhang Ze was now sure that [Dragon Girl's Kiss] was effective on these sharks!
"Suddenly I realized that the kiss Dragon Girl gave me was quite effective!" Zhang Ze laughed in his heart.
"Well, can we let these sharks help us lead the way?" Zhang Ze looked at the swarms of sharks in front of him and thought to himself: "This circle seems to only have an interference effect on foreign creatures, but it should also have an interference effect on creatures in the sea. It doesn’t work, but give it a try.”
"But I have to make these sharks listen to me first."
Zhang Ze looked into the eyes of one of the sharks and said silently: "Shark, be good and come to me."
Hululu.
The shark immediately turned its head and swam toward him, wagging its tail.
"Really obedient!" Zhang Ze was overjoyed. Just as he was about to continue ordering the shark, a man suddenly rushed down from above, drew a knife with his right hand, and slashed hard at the shark with a [Blade Attack]!
The shark was attacked and in pain, it immediately ran away wagging its tail.
"Moon Shadow!?"
Zhang Ze was stunned when he saw Liu Yueying carrying a submersible on her back and approaching him rapidly.
Unable to speak underwater, she could only send messages: "These sharks didn't hurt you, did they?"
"No..." Zhang Ze replied to Liu Yueying, "Why did you come down suddenly? Where did this submersible come from?"
"You haven't come up for a long time. Everyone was worried about you, so they sent me down to take a look!"
"This submersible is a fragment obtained previously..."
Liu Yueying said what she said insincerely. In fact, she took the initiative to go to the sea to find Zhang Ze. However, she was very stubborn and did not want to admit it in front of Zhang Ze.
Looking at the group of sharks around him, Liu Yueying took a deep breath and sent a message to Zhang Ze: "You will call the clowns out later and cover the two of us to rush out!"
"No need." Zhang Ze patted Liu Yueying's shoulder in fear, "These sharks are friends with me."
"?"
Liu Yueying's beautiful eyes widened in surprise, "Are you friends with sharks?"
"Let's go back to the sea first. I'll tell you slowly." Zhang Ze took Liu Yueying's hand and at the same time passed the order to the sharks around him: "Send us to the sea."
Wow!
Suddenly, countless sharks surrounded Zhang Ze and the two of them. Liu Yueying was so frightened that her face turned pale. If she was attacked by sharks, all her bones would be eaten away!
The sharks held Zhang Ze and Liu Yueying's bodies with their heads and moved rapidly towards the sea surface, several times faster than when Liu Yueying dived.
Liu Yueying breathed a long sigh of relief when she saw that the shark did not attack the two of them. When she looked up, she found Zhang Ze looking down at her with a playful smile on his face.
It turned out that she was too nervous just now and hugged Zhang Ze's body tightly with both hands, as if she was afraid of losing him.
Her cheeks turned red and she hurriedly let go, but Zhang Ze grabbed her little hand and sent a message with a smile: "Thank you for coming down to save me."
In fact, Zhang Ze already knew that what Liu Yueying just told was a lie. With so many men above, no one could let Liu Yueying come down and take risks as a woman.
"...Hmph!" Liu Yueying turned her face away again, but her hands were tightly held with Zhang Ze's.
Soon, the two of them were sent to the sea by the sharks.
With a crash, the inertia of the sharks directly pushed the two of them out of the sea.
Like a performance in an aquarium, they drew an arc in the air and fell into the sea with strings of water drops.
"They're out!"
The shouts of the giant gods and others came from overhead. Zhang Ze hugged Liu Yueying, smiled and waved to everyone.
The Dark Dragon King landed, and the furious Dragon King and Xiaoniaoyi stretched out their hands and pulled Zhang Ze up.
"It's strange, why didn't these sharks attack you?" Little Princess Money asked with a surprised look on her face: "I've seen all the sharks in the movie eat people!"
"Don't confuse movies with reality." Shan Knife said emotionally: "Generally speaking, as long as sharks are not provoked, they will not attack humans casually."
Zhang Ze told everyone that [Dragon Girl's Kiss] could control these sharks, and everyone looked surprised.
"Wow, this is amazing!" Yao Guang said excitedly: "No monsters will attack you in the sea from now on."
"It's hard to say." Zhang Ze shook his head and said: "[Dragon Girl's Kiss] Effect 2 says that the favorability of the Sea Clan is increased by 100%, but what is the scope of the Sea Clan? Monsters in the sea like the Jinghe Dragon King are considered Not counting the Sea Clan, I don’t even know.”
"However, for now, we can rely on these sharks to lead us out of this devilish sea."
Zhang Ze looked at the dorsal fins gliding across the sea, and said to himself: "Shark, be good and lead us to the end of the sea."
After hearing Zhang Ze's order, the sharks immediately took action. They moved quickly in one direction.
"Follow them!"
Zhang Ze controlled the Dark Dragon King to follow the group of sharks in the sky. About half an hour later, everyone saw a black barrier appearing in the distance.
"Found it! The edge of the map!" Moonlight Bunny shouted excitedly.
"Hahaha! Rakshasa, your baby shark is so awesome!" The grumpy Dragon King laughed heartily.
Hangzui also smiled and said, "I think it was Dragon Girl's kiss that was so powerful... Uh, sorry, I said the wrong thing."
Liu Yueying just glanced at him and said nothing more.
Zhang Feng asked Zhang Ze quietly: "Brother, have you and your sister-in-law reconciled?"
"Absolutely." Zhang Ze smiled slightly and said, "At least she won't ignore me now."
"Zhang Ze, just go and be happy! My sister is a typical sharp-tongued person. As soon as she realized that you were in danger, she jumped into the sea without saying a word. We couldn't stop her!" Xiaoniao Yiren curled her lips and said: " From now on, you have to be nice to my sister!"
"Of course!" Zhang Ze looked at Liu Yueying's pretty back and said seriously: "I will always protect her!"
The giant god took out the grassland [Fragment], and after using it, the scene of the next map was displayed in front of everyone.
There is the vast ocean on one side and the green grassland on the other, which gives everyone a huge contrast.
"Phew, I finally have my feet on the ground." The melancholy of the sky jumped to the ground, stepped on the green grass under his feet, smelled the fragrance of the grass, and sighed: "I still like the feeling of land."
"The second prompt of [Shimen Clue 1] requires us to pass through 3 grasslands and kill 10 grassland werewolves..." Yiye Zhiqiu looked around and said: "We only have 2 grassland [fragments]. There are no Steppe Werewolves either. Let’s search this map and see if you can find any useful fragments.”
Zhang Ze touched the big head of the Dark Dragon King and said: "My Dragon King is a little tired after flying on the sea for several hours. Let him rest. Let's go on foot to look for clues."
"In this case, we will work separately to improve efficiency."
The giant god said: "How about a team of two? If necessary, you can send a message in the team channel."
Soon, everyone was divided into six teams. Because there was one more person, Zhang Ze took Zhang Feng and Liu Yueying to form a team.
"It would be great if you could tame that big unicorn, then we could ride it on the grassland." Xiaoniao Yiren looked regretful.
Then each team set off in different directions, and everyone agreed to report safety on the team channel every half hour.
Half an hour later, each team sent messages to the channel one after another, reporting their own situations.
However, no news came yet about the team of the irritable Dragon King and Little Princess Money, and everyone's hearts suddenly sank.
Something must have happened to them!
