We Agreed to Set Sail, but You Became the Ruler of the Deep Sea?

Xia En would regard [Rusted Waste City] and [Siren Islands] as the planned exploration location, not out of nowhere, but premeditated.

As everyone knows.

[Rusty Wasteland] contains a large number of steam creations from the past era and possesses a very high level of steam technology.

In the past, Xia En might not have been able to make good use of these inheritances.

But now that Feiya, who is both a priest and a mechanic, is on board, there is no doubt that the [Black Swan] can complete further transformation.

The current hull of the [Black Swan] is mainly made of sea crystal wood.

Although the keel has been strengthened and the wood can be said to be tough and excellent, there is still a big gap compared with real steel and metal.

In fact, the reason why Xia En piloted the "Black Swan" to escape from Silver Moon Island was not to confront the "Viper" head-on.

It's because the performance of the two ships is still not at the same level.

The huge size and the hull covered with steel...all give the [Viper] a higher fault tolerance rate.

To put it simply, [The Viper] has a thicker health bar and higher defense!

Even if it stood still and allowed the [Black Swan] to bombard it, it would probably not be able to sink it even if it ran out of ammunition.

Xia En is naturally a little envious of this kind of defense.

His next goal is to modify the [Black Swan] into a steel battleship similar to the [Viper]!

Since the body shape is difficult to change, use faster speed, harder armor, and more powerful artillery to make up for it!

The best place to obtain metal materials is [Rust Waste City].

As for the [Siren Islands]...

This also talks about the azure blue scale Alyssa gave to Shane at that time.

【Siren's Scale】

[Quality: Rare]

[Type: Material]

[Description: A piece of tail scale of the sea monster contains some mysterious power. 】

[Those who hold this scale will be inspired by the "Siren Islands". 】

[The "Siren Islands" are not fixed islands in the sea. They are hidden in patches of thick fog, wandering along the seven seas with the thick fog. 】

[Often unfortunate ships stray into the fog and are seduced by the siren's song, and remain there forever. 】

It was precisely because of the existence of these scales that Xia En wanted to visit the [Siren Islands].

On the one hand, it is for Joey's long-cherished wish.

On the other hand, it was pure curiosity.

After calming down his complicated thoughts, Xia En began to count the gains from this trip to the [Blood Moon Secret Realm].

"Not only has the ship's spirit level been raised to LV3, he has taken up the second-level hidden profession [Deep Sea Beloved], and he has also gained a new crew member."

"This trip is really worth it!"

The corners of Xia En's mouth raised slightly, feeling happy and relaxed.

"Oh, by the way, I almost forgot about this..."

His consciousness fell on the space ring, where a deep red, plump and magnificent fruit was lying quietly there.

【Crimson Reality (Special)】

[Quality: Epic]

[Type: Material]

[Description: The fruit condensed from the "Crimson Ancient Tree" is also its reward and gift to you. 】

[The fruit contains a large amount of life essence and the special secret power of blood. 】

[After taking it, it can heal injuries, enhance vitality, and improve the quality of "Blood Power". It can also replace "Sea Clam Blood" as a potion material for promotion to the third level. 】

[The seeds under the pulp contain part of the soul and will of the "Crimson Ancient Tree". 】

[Buried in soil rich in vitality, maybe similar but different creatures can sprout, right? 】

Purple epic!

From this point of view alone, this fruit is already a trophy of the same level as [Ancient Dragon Egg].

And its description surprised Xia En even more.

Needless to say, its own effect is in line with Xia En's imagination of this fruit.

The key is that it can replace a magic potion needed for the promotion of [Deep Sea Beloved].

——In the state of [Call of the Deep Sea], not only the [Fitness] is marked, but also several required potion materials are given.

There are three main materials, namely [Nether Sea Clam Blood], [Celestial Star Sea Star] and [Black Stone Essence].

There are still several scattered auxiliary materials left.

But to be honest, except for the [Black Stone Essence], Xia En has heard about it before.

Not to mention that he knew the other potion ingredients, he had never even heard of them!

Right now, it is undoubtedly good news that [Crimson Reality] can replace one of the rare materials.

"However, in this case, the restrictions on potion materials may not be so strict."

"As long as it has some similar characteristics and secret power, maybe it can be replaced?"

Xia En's thoughts diverged for a moment and fell back on [Crimson Reality].

He was vaguely aware that there was a weak, ancient, sleeping consciousness in the seeds deep inside the fruit.

When the right environment is met, it should be able to sprout and take on new vitality.

After realizing that he could not defeat the Scarlet Lord in the [Blood Moon Secret Realm], [Crimson Ancient Tree] adopted another method to escape from that dark prison.

Xia En secretly promised in his heart: "I will help you find a good growing environment and let you regain your life and freedom."

…

…

Not long after.

After a welcome dinner.

Fei Ya came to the cabin assigned to him by Xia En.

The room was very empty, so empty that it was a bit simple and shabby, with only a bed and a small cupboard.

Compared with the luxurious decoration in the castle, I don't know how far behind it is.

But Fei Ya didn't dislike it at all, but felt a long-lost peace of mind.

Buzz——

Milly and Dutch made a slight buzzing sound, as if they were whispering something to him.

"Well, that's right, from now on, this is our new home."

Fei Ya smiled and responded to the doubts of the two steam cores.

"Huh? You guys said there is a scary guy deep in the cabin. Do you want me to be careful?"

"That's not true, is it?"

Fei Ya was just about to deny it, but she couldn't help but think of the abnormal characteristics of this ship, and her expression was a little strange.

This ship was different from any other ship he knew. It was like a living giant beast!

When she thought that she would serve as a steam mechanic or repairman on this ship in the future, Fei Ya suddenly felt a lot of pressure.

"Oh, and that fruit..."

Fei Ya took out the [Crimson Reality] from the space ring.

This fruit is slightly different from Xia En's. The color is a little lighter and there are no seeds inside.

But for Fei Ya, it also has a very strong attraction.

It was as if... the blood in his body was strongly craving for it.

"That ancient tree should be the enemy of the Scarlet Lord."

"Does it give this fruit to me because it believes that I will avenge it, or is it because of the special blood in my body?"

Fei Ya still has many doubts in her heart.

But at the same time, he instinctively felt that this fruit was harmless to him.

After thinking for a short time, Fei Ya decisively chose to eat [Crimson Reality].

Immediately, a miraculous change occurred in his body.

From the broken parts of his right arm and left leg, white bones spread out, and many small granules were entangled together to form solid muscle fibers, with delicate skin attached to them.

Soon, the original mechanical prosthesis fell off and was replaced by a living and intact limb!

Feiya was stunned.

He felt that his bloodline was undergoing a new transformation.

No need to drink blood, he also has a sound and vigorous body, even... more perfect than those vampires!

…

…

In the blink of an eye, several days passed.

Feiya has gradually adapted to life on the Black Swan.

At the same time, his changes were not hidden from Xia En's eyes.

Feiya took off the steam prosthetic limbs, but did not abandon the two steam cores. Instead, she modified them into a pair of huge metal gloves.

On the other hand, his aura is getting stronger day by day.

The change of race on the panel also proves this point.

"Holy Blood Seed..."

Xia En had some guesses in his mind.

Perhaps the earliest creature born on the [Crimson Mother Tree] should be this kind of creature with sacred blood.

It's just that the [Scarlet Lord] embarked on another blasphemous path, grabbing the blood of others to obtain more powerful power.

Since then, the race "Vampire" was born.

They are intoxicated with the sweetness of blood, but they don't know that this sweet gift has a price tag on its back.

——The pollution hidden deep in the blood is destined to make them increasingly crazy and twisted.

Feiya, who has some special characteristics and has never drank blood, was not contaminated by the pollution in the blood. Instead, under the influence of [Crimson Reality], she completed a transformation similar to returning to her ancestors.

Feiya has become stronger, and Xia En is of course happy for him - although it has not been bound yet, as long as [Captain's Majesty] exists, the stronger the crew, the stronger the captain.

This income cannot be escaped.

"However, after this transformation, why does this boy become more and more beautiful?"

Looking at Fei Ya not far away, Xia En had a strange expression.

At this time, the boy's complexion was as fair as snow, and his crimson pupils were as bright as gems.

The male and female features are becoming more and more delicate and beautiful, reminiscent of a black cat or rabbit, combined with his petite figure...

"Brother, brother..."

Xia En's mouth twitched and he thought to himself: "You should be taller!"

Suppressing the distracting thoughts in his mind, he looked around at the sea.

The sea is calm, the waves are sparkling, and the warm sea breeze makes people feel very comfortable.

This is already the sea area of ​​[Coral City], but Xia En is in no hurry to go diving in the sea.

only because……

Not far away, a hunting boat with a federal logo was approaching quickly!
