Capítulo 837: Chapter 706: Red Crab
Tang Qi’s figure appeared in the corridor, and in the shadows beside him, the playful Gluttony, Night Beast, and Elf simultaneously threw those low-level Transcendents who attacked ordinary humans into the sea, then accompanied Tang Qi, curiously looking far ahead.
At this mont, Tang Qi, after seeing the calm sea surface and feeling the normal air temperature, imdiately realized sothing was wrong.
“Hmm? Sothing’s off. Even though the Siren is sailing fast, it’s only been at sea for at most an hour. It should be several days away from the nearest Ice Mountain Area. Even if there were so drifting icebergs, it’s impossible to encounter one this soon.”
Tom Ratch, who hurried over at this ti, made the sa judgnt as Tang Qi. He was disheveled, accompanied by his temporary girlfriend who had beco dependent on him.
Tom didn’t know what he had done to his girlfriend to make her completely ignore the conversation between the two of them.
“Master Tang, the Sword Holders have just sent a ssage. The iceberg ahead is real, a drifting iceberg that suddenly appeared in the Siren’s route. If the two collide, the Siren will definitely capsize.”
“Due to task restrictions, the Sword Holders cannot act for the ti being. Although the Siren has just set sail for an hour, there are already so dangerous signs in the current sea area. Once Extraordinary Power is used, whether to move the Siren, or to push away or destroy the iceberg, it might attract an unknown giant beast.”
“So, they’re asking if we have any other thods?”
By the ti he said the last sentence, Tom Ratch’s face was already showing a helpless expression.
At this mont, both of their eyes reflected the distant black shadow that was rapidly enlarging.
Initially, the shadow was about the size of an elephant.
But quickly, it began to enlarge dramatically; with the Extraordinary Vision of the two, they imdiately saw the full appearance of the iceberg even before the panicked ordinary passengers did.
It looked like a “snow-white giant beast” floating on the sea, directly blocking the course of the Eternal Siren. The icy cold air, blown by the sea breeze, seed to freeze everyone on the Siren in place.
From the sounds coming from various parts of the Siren’s hull, the captain and crew who maneuvered it were already trying their best to avoid collision, but with the Siren’s speed at the mont, collision seed almost inevitable.
Tang Qi did not imdiately answer Tom Ratch. He first glanced at the chaotic lower area. Although the Eternal Siren was lauded as a sea fortress and many nobles and wealthy individuals had purchased inaugural voyage tickets, the majority of passengers were still ordinary people.
So were traveling to go ho; so were visiting friends, while others hoped to survive or another reason. They originally thought this voyage was full of hope.
For ordinary people, taking the Eternal Siren could even beco one of the stories they would tell for a lifeti.
But now, that hope was shattered.
Tang Qi could even feel the pain and despair of these ordinary people from the myriad of curses, vibrations, and cries beneath his feet.
In contrast, the upper cabin area, though so ordinary wealthy individuals were panicked and had started snatching life jackets and lifeboats, so were still not the least bit flustered, leisurely appreciating the approach of that terrifying iceberg.
These people were either Transcendents themselves or were protected by Transcendents.
Although this sea area was already so distance from Eagle’s Nest City, stronger Transcendents could still return unscathed.
“The iceberg appeared too suddenly, though it might seem like an accident, there might be the intervention of Extraordinary Power behind it…”
As he spoke this sentence, Tang Qi seriously considered the thods.
The Sword Holders, who were full of thoughts of combat, though their power was strong, each action caused significant commotion. If it were him, whether it was using the “Illusion Spell” or “Truth Spell,” he could solve this huge problem quietly.
The only question was, should he act?
As the thought flickered, Tang Qi’s gaze focused entirely on the iceberg.
At the sa ti, he quietly activated All-Knowing.
“Hmm?”
Abruptly, an unexpected intense ghost light flowed in Tang Qi’s eyes.
A surprising Information Fragnt appeared in his mind.
“Extraordinary Artifact: Activated Iceberg, one of the toys of an unknown giant sea beast, having been toyed with by this giant beast for a long ti. The iceberg has now acquired a certain level of intelligence, it almost never lts, it can move freely…”
Tom Ratch naturally didn’t know that Tang Qi had activated a Special Ability, but at that mont, he could also see a hint of surprise on Tang Qi’s face.
Then suddenly, Tang Qi turned his head and directly looked at the calm sea surface in front.
“It’s coming!”
“What is coming…?”
Just as Tom Ratch uttered his confusion, an unforeseen mutation occurred.
The originally peaceful sea surface rippled without warning, as if the entire sea area was boiled, with countless bubbles and sound waves visible to the naked eye emanating upwards, engulfing the entire sea area, including those on the Siren, in the blink of an eye.
Bang!
The first to react was Tom Ratch’s temporary girlfriend. That classically elegant beauty collapsed in an inelegant manner.
As if it were a signal, the once noisy and chaotic Siren began a crescendo of “bang bang bang” sounds.
All ordinary humans and so low-level Transcendents were powerless against the sound waves and fell into a deep coma almost instantly.
anwhile, higher-level Transcendents, including Tom Ratch, found themselves in an equally unenviable situation.
They did not scream or struggle.
But at this mont, it was as if they had encountered so hypnotic power and entered a state of daze.
As one of the few exceptions, Tang Qi didn’t react strongly right away. At this mont, he even sent a thought to the leader of the Sword Holders.
“Do not act recklessly!”
Perhaps out of trust in Tang Qi, introduced personally by the Chairman as “Eagle Scholar,” the power that was about to erupt returned to calmness after he transmitted his ssage.
Tang Qi didn’t have ti to rejoice as his gaze remained fixed on the sea surface.
Even though he didn’t sense obvious malice, right now, in the Atlant Ocean, he had every reason to remain cautious.
Another ironclad rule of the Mysterious Side: the most dangerous places, second only to the boundless mysteries, are the major oceans.
Just as this thought crossed Tang Qi’s mind.
Bop!
A slight strange sound suddenly ca from the seabed. The boiling sea surface was split apart by an invisible powerful force, revealing an enormous, crystal-clear bubble rising from the seabed.
Then, under the astonished gaze of Tang Qi and other conscious Transcendents, this bubble, illuminated by moonlight and reflecting a rainbow of colors, began to slowly envelop the entire Eternal Siren.
Before Tang Qi could activate his Special Ability on the bubble, a more horrifying change occurred.
Boom! Boom!
A genuinely thunderous explosion erupted before the Eternal Siren.
An enormous black shadow erged from the depths of the sea, following the ergence of an iceberg resembling a “snow-white giant beast.” Bright, fierce red colors imdiately filled the eyes of Tang Qi and other Transcendents.
When its full form appeared, even Tang Qi could no longer remain calm.
“Hiss…”
Accompanied by the sound of sucking in cold air, silhouettes began appearing beside Tang Qi.
Even at this ti, the Sword Holders from the Holy Eagle Nest Society did not forget their task procedure. They quickly cleared the scene, incapacitating so Transcendents who retained their reason under the strange soundwave hypnosis, swiftly imrsing them in a deeper sleep.
Soon, Tang Qi was surrounded by formidable “colleagues.”
But at this mont, Tang Qi had no ti to observe the powerful figures around him.
His gaze was completely focused on the surface of the sea, on the giant beast wearing a “snow-white hat,” which tread the sea as if it was land.
It had a body many tis larger than the iceberg, covered with vibrant, striking red shells. It had claws that seed as though they could crush mountains and many joints writhing with tentacle-like organs.
On its head, a pair of enormous eyes looked at everyone, at the Eternal Siren, with a childlike innocence and curiosity.
…
If they hadn’t felt the aura emanating from it that seed capable of destroying everything, everyone would likely have thought they were in a dream, witnessing an absurd and incomprehensible scene.
A giant red crab, much larger than an iceberg, intending to envelop the Eternal Siren in a bubble?
“Have we been collectively hypnotized?”
Beside Tang Qi, Tom Ratch fell into a daze, murmuring the question.
