Chapter 849: Chapter 637: Undead Master
Cang Xu’s encounter with the ship ghost was an accident, not an intentional search for him.
Therefore, the place where he and the ship ghost t was no longer the place where the ship ghost was held captive.
The reason for the rescue was that the ship ghost had imnse value, giving Cang Xu great imagination.
Consistent with Cang Xu’s perception, the ship ghost behaved just like an ordinary person, without any combat power.
This was because he had been personally sealed by Zhou Zhang, unable to use his extraordinary power.
However, after rescuing him, the ship ghost’s behavior left Cang Xu quite puzzled.
The ship ghost was as weak as an ordinary person, and at this mont, instead of trying to escape, he wanted to enter the Ocean Nest, wasn’t this looking for death?
Based on the ship ghost’s previous behavior, he definitely wasn’t soone with an adventurous spirit!
“So, what’s going on?” Cang Xu asked himself silently.
He used to be a noble housekeeper. In this position, he worked for many years. He ca into contact with both higher and lower classes, witnessed the scheming of the upper class, and realized the cunning of the lower class.
This gradually made him develop the habit of thinking towards conspiracy.
Why, at this dangerous mont, did the ship ghost want to go to the Ocean Nest?
He was afraid of death, but at this very mont, he was actively seeking it.
He must have his own plans and purposes!
In his view, the possibility of dying is much lower compared to how I, an outsider, see it!
Could it be that the two Holy Domains who ca to attack were summoned by him?
No, not very likely.
These two Holy Domains are of the Human Race, not undead mages, without a trace of undead aura.
Cang Xu had just been controlling the Deep Sea Monster Fish, and through the Tower Spirit, he had even investigated the identities of Qian Xing and Da Han.
Thanks to the War rchant, even though his database was incomplete, it was enough for the survivors!
It was very practical!
In his database, he recorded transcendents from across the world.
Of course, those who could be recorded by him were certainly the renowned or the special ones.
Qian Xing and Da Han were among them.
They were both Holy Domain Level, and just this alone was enough to qualify them to be collected as intelligence by the War rchant.
Cang Xu couldn’t see the specific situation of the two battle groups, but the reconnaissance ability of the Deep Sea Monster Fish was far stronger than his.
“They are Qian Xing and Da Han, both from the Firebeard pirate group!”
“The probability of them working with an undead mage is very low.”
“Could it be, just like in the battle on the Nether River, did the undead orthodoxy secretly send reinforcents?”
“Was it contacted through the ship ghost?”
This was a natural guess for Cang Xu.
Because he knew, this was very possible.
Because the connection between souls is very mystical, Zhou Zhang sealed the ship ghost but did not stop this layer of connection. Of course, it would weaken the degree of this connection.
But it could not prohibit it.
So, even under Zhou Zhang’s watchful eyes, the ship ghost and other undead mages could perform small actions, extensively engaging in mory forgery activities.
Inferring from this, if the ship ghost utilized the soul connection to find powerful reinforcents, it was entirely possible.
“Perhaps, the undead orthodoxy has also developed specialized thods…”
Another piece of evidence of the powerful soul connection is the divine art [Perception of believers].
Cang Xu understood: although his squad leader was blessed by the Divine Country, even without it, the young squad leader could still perceive the big guy, Lan Zao, and others.
Such a significant sensory distance has completely surpassed the conventional aning of a spell!
As a mage, Cang Xu had his understanding of this: “The range of the divine art [Perception of believers] is not exaggerated because the deity itself has an exaggerated sensory range. The squad leader is not a deity; he only has the Golden Level, yet he still has such an exaggerated perception range.”
“The connection on a soul level cannot be described using conventional distances.”
“Or rather, the distance between souls is distinct from conventional concepts, but rather a concept in mysticism.”
“Why is the perception range of believers so exaggerated?”
“It’s because faith and divine power have transford the believers. It has made the essence of their souls continually approach and beco alike, so the distance on a soul level becos very close.”
As Cang Xu thought of this, only a mont had passed in the outside world.
He imdiately said to the ship ghost: “How can we enter the Ocean Nest now?”
“Lord Ship Ghost, you rightly praise the curiosity that is indeed one of the excellent qualities of a mage. But we also need to assess the situation.”
“The risk is too great if we proceed now. You have not yet broken the seal! If Lord Zhou Zhang is defeated, and the enemy Holy Domain attacks, they will undoubtedly kill us if they see us in the nest. If Lord Zhou Zhang succeeds, and sees you in the nest upon returning, she will certainly not let you go.”
“After all, you are not , and you are not a believer of i Lan.”
The ship ghost laughed and waved his hand, “Then you should leave.”
Cang Xu hesitated for a mont, then slowly shook his head, his expression grave: “No.”
“You saved . Since I have encountered you, I cannot leave you to die.”
With that said, Cang Xu forcibly used the spell Mage’s Hand to lift the ship ghost.
The ship ghost glared, angrily shouting, “Stop, stop, stop!”
“Xu Jia, this is my personal choice.”
“Don’t ddle with .”
Cang Xu shook his head, “Don’t forget, I myself am also a believer of i Lan. I won’t watch an outsider enter the Ocean Nest.”
“A believer?”
The ship ghost sneered, “Co now. You’ve always turned a blind eye to our forged mories without reporting, your level of faith isn’t much!”
Cang Xu sighed and spoke honestly, “Even if what you say is true, I can’t let you go to your death. You have significant ties with the undead orthodoxy and the saints. In the future, I still hope you lead , to communicate more with the orthodox forces.”
“Fin Spirit, Little Prince, they are all dead already. If you die here too, and after the fact, the undead orthodoxy investigates, only I survive. How am I supposed to explain that? If your undead orthodoxy misconstrues my actions, I have no way of clarifying.”
“So, to be safe, I’ll still take you away.”
The ship ghost was speechless.
Under normal circumstances, he would surely be angry, furious, even develop hatred.
But his relationship with Cang Xu was not normal.
However, don’t forget one thing.
The ship ghost had control over Cang Xu, and he had previously tampered with Cang Xu, making the latter’s life hang by the ship ghost’s whim.
In fact, Cang Xu had already successfully lifted these setups through the Fishman youth’s divine arts.
Moreover, the Fishman youth had used divine arts, bestowing special deceptive camouflage on Cang Xu.
Earlier, the youth was not confident in resolving the dark gate on Cang Xu, he was unsure.
But as he beca a divine traveler surrogate and acquired quite a few advanced divine skills, after contacting several tis, his confidence soared.
Eventually, he successfully resolved the hidden dangers for Cang Xu.
The ship ghost was unaware of this. In his perception, Cang Xu’s dark gate still existed.
This point gave him a significant psychological advantage.
He always felt that Cang Xu was just a pawn for him, under his control.
Furthermore, Cang Xu wasn’t malicious; he made the ship ghost feel that – Xu Jia genuinely wanted to keep him alive.
Whether out of gratitude, repaying a favor, or based on future interests, wanting to connect with the undead orthodoxy, all these were reasonable and made sense to the ship ghost.
Even the ship ghost felt the straightforward Cang Xu’s way of doing things was quite admirable.
Anger, frustration, goodwill, a sense of control, these feelings mixed together, forming an overwhelming feeling of wanting to cry and laugh at the sa ti.
Just then, a mysterious person suddenly appeared beside them.
The ship ghost was stunned.
He never expected him to reveal himself so easily!
Cang Xu also did a double-take as he gazed at him.
This extraordinary person, appearing like an elder, had only a Bronze Level aura, yet was full of life, without a trace of undead aura.
He nodded slightly, observing Cang Xu with interest: “You know ?”
His appearance was ordinary, human in shape, with a gentle deanor, like an old scholar living secluded in a mage tower.
