Chapter 765: Gold-tier Lifeform! The Ambitions of Yu Yuan and Xiao Xi

"Tallow... how is that possible!"

Inside the Black-Sail Fleet.

Mary I couldn't believe it as she tried to contact Tallow again.

Dropped into the ocean, no response.

She finally confirmed that something had really happened to Tallow.

"So soon..."

Mary I understood that with Tallow's failure, her situation would only get worse.

More and more giant marine creatures gathered around, launching suicide attacks against her fleet.

Her fleet had over a hundred ships, but the berserk marine creatures numbered far more than just thousands upon thousands.

Previously, Tallow had helped share the pressure.

Understanding she had reached the most critical moment, she hesitated.

Looking at the mothership hull radiating a faint red glow, she finally made her decision.

"This time is also an opportunity for me. The Mary has been stuck at its bottleneck for too long. I must seize this chance."

She then pulled out a small bottle from her bosom.

The bottle's surface flickered intermittently with golden runes, representing sealing and suppression.

Inside the bottle was a short tentacle, like an octopus tentacle.

Writhing slowly.

Mary I's gaze carried both wariness and greed.

She quickly arrived at the deck.

The ship pitched and rolled, surrounded by white mist walls that blocked all vision.

The sounds of battle were everywhere.

A massive shark underwater suddenly accelerated and leaped out of the water, appearing above the ship.

But it was instantly killed by a death ray fired from the Mary cruise ship's high tower.

The giant shark burst in midair, black-red blood scattered everywhere.

But the next moment, the blood was absorbed by the deck and vanished.

This was the special ability of Mary I's core mothership.

It was also the ability she had gained after joining the Bloodlands.

The ship could recover consumed energy by absorbing biological blood, and slowly raise the mothership's quality.

This was why she was reluctant to leave this place.

The current ocean battlefield was a rare opportunity for her.

The marine creatures had been strengthened by an unknown power. As long as she could kill all these marine creatures and drain their blood...

She might be able to obtain that unknown power.

Especially those four turtles that had fused with ancient sea beasts' giant turtles, she absolutely had to get them.

"This is my chance to advance to Gold-tier."

The voice of the Blood Duke surfaced in her mind.

"Mary, this is an opportunity. Whether you can seize it is up to you. If your luck is good enough, perhaps you might even advance to Gold-tier."

Thinking of this, Mary I no longer hesitated, and immediately opened the bottle and swallowed the tentacle.

Then she jumped into the seawater that had long been dyed red with blood.

The mutation began.

Yu Yuan had just left Tallow's mothership when he sensed something was wrong.

He heard the frightened voices of the four little ones.

He immediately rode Mie Mie and flew toward the Black-Sail Fleet.

As soon as he approached the Black-Sail Fleet, a powerful death crisis surfaced in Yu Yuan's mind.

Before he could speak, Mie Mie's flight direction made a ninety-degree sharp turn.

Flying to the side.

Looking back, he saw a massive tentacle with a diameter of seven or eight meters appear within the thick white mist.

Countless tiny tentacles covered it, constantly twisting and writhing.

There were even mouth-like cracks, filled with sharp teeth, chewing shredded meat.

"What the hell is this thing."

This was what had terrified the four little ones.

Mie Mie continued flying toward the Black-Sail Fleet, occasionally changing direction to dodge these suddenly appearing tentacles.

He followed the sensing to find the location of the four little ones.

He saw that the Cangjia Rock Turtle had already been wrapped by a tentacle and was being dragged into the air, with a deep-sea vortex below.

That was a mouth, preparing to devour the Cangjia Rock Turtle.

The other three little ones were attacking that black shadow with all their strength.

What greeted them were another three giant tentacles.

They could only watch helplessly as the tentacle loosened, and the Cangjia Rock Turtle fell toward that giant maw.

Chirp...

The Cangjia Rock Turtle let out a mournful cry. Even though it had awakened the bloodline of an ancient sea beast, facing this terrifying existence, it was still powerless.

"Hehe, little one, scared already!"

Yu Yuan's voice sounded in the Cangjia Rock Turtle's ear.

The next moment, the Cangjia Rock Turtle had disappeared.

Chirp...

Chi...

ROOOAR...

The other three little ones showed expressions of excitement upon seeing this.

But the Cloud-Tide Flying Turtle was caught by a tentacle due to distraction.

—【Diagnosis: Epilepsy】

At the critical moment, Psychic Ability struck.

That tentacle trembled, then began to shudder violently.

And taking advantage of this moment, Yu Yuan had already arrived beside the Cloud-Tide Flying Turtle, and amid its excited cheers, collected it as well.

Then came the other two little ones.

With their departure, this Ancient War Sea began to collapse and disintegrate.

The white mist walls dispersed, and the sea area returned to its previous appearance.

The strengthening power on the marine creatures dissipated.

Yu Yuan saw the Black-Sail Fleet, and sensed several Silver-tier auras upon it.

Those were Mary I's subordinates.

ROOOAR—

A low, deep voice carrying immense pressure sounded across the sea area.

The black shadow beneath the water rose, and Yu Yuan finally saw the full form of the other party.

Hiss...

Yu Yuan's eyelid twitched slightly.

"This is..."

Looking at the massive humanoid octopus figure, Yu Yuan's heart pounded madly.

"Damn, buddy, you've come to the wrong channel!"

An indescribable existence instantly surfaced in Yu Yuan's mind, Cthulhu.

But very quickly, Yu Yuan realized he was overthinking it.

Although this figure also had a humanoid octopus appearance, and its tentacles were quite terrifying.

It was far from reaching the level of above Gold.

Nor did it have that threat of driving people mad to death.

"Damn, scared me to death!"

It wasn't Yu Yuan's fault for being nervous. That one's image was simply too deeply ingrained in people's hearts.

If this world really had some connection to that world, Yu Yuan would truly be in trouble.

Even so, the energy level of this humanoid octopus brought tremendous pressure to Yu Yuan.

This kind of energy level was definitely not something a Silver-tier lifeform could emit.

Yu Yuan's eyes flickered.

Higher than Silver-tier, yet not reaching the level of above Gold.

Then wouldn't that mean...

It was Gold-tier!

"It must be!"

His heart pounded wildly. He hadn't expected to encounter a Gold-tier lifeform under such circumstances.

He couldn't miss it!

Absolutely couldn't miss it.

He followed the sense to find the location of the four little ones.

It was Xiao Xi.

She suddenly appeared in midair, falling downward, but as bat wings emerged, she quickly returned to Yu Yuan's side.

"Leader, where's the enemy..." Her voice stopped.

Xiao Xi's gaze turned to that massive figure, and the life energy on it that belonged uniquely to Gold-tier. She seemed to have thought of something.

She immediately turned her head to look at Yu Yuan, her gaze containing inquiry, surprise, and confirmation.

But what she saw were two balls of flame.

Burning ambitions, flames of ambition.

Her own guess confirmed, Xiao Xi's emotions surged.

"Xiao Xi, your chance to advance to Gold-tier has come!" Yu Yuan's voice was low yet carried a demonic allure.

"We take it down?"

Sensing the restraint and ambition in Yu Yuan's words, Xiao Xi's body instantly became exhilarated. She licked her lips, her eyes also igniting with the fire of ambition.

Her voice trembled:

"We... take it down!"
