1618 Fighting the Demon Snake on the Ocean (1/2)

Edited by Aelryinth

Mo Fan jumped to the top of the currently unneeded sail on the boat and looked behind them.

The yacht was moving quickly, driven by a looping Water Spell that Zhao Manyan had cast. Waves were extending to the side like white curtains on the surface of the sea; behind them was a long shadow. It was still a certain distance from the surface, but it was obvious because of how clear the water was. It was extremely sinister to see!

When did the creature start following the yacht?

Mo Fan had assumed they would not stumble into demon snakes again after leaving the deserts in Egypt. To his surprise, there was such a deadly creature in the Mediterranean Sea!

”Its level isn't low, be careful!” Mo Fan warned the others.

Luckily, his missing arm had grown fully back. Otherwise, he would have struggled to wield his full strength. Mo Fan glanced at Apas, who looked back at him helplessly.

If Apas had not used the Curse on Ethan, she would have no problem dealing with the Cruel Ocean Serpent. However, her mental energy had dried out. She could not lend a hand, since she mainly relied on her Spiritual Magic!

”Holy crap, which god did we end up provoking this time? Why do we always find ourselves in dangerous situations like this? Why did we have to stumble into a thing like this while we are enjoying ourselves!?” Zhao Manyan grumbled.

It was fine if some random serpent or monster showed up while they were traveling across the Mediterranean Sea. They could easily just take them out, so why would such a deadly Ruler-level creature show up out of nowhere? Were Ruler-level creatures so common nowadays? How were average Mages going to survive?

”It's coming,” Mo Fan frowned. He was trying to figure out a way to deal with the Cruel Ocean Serpent.

Any creature that had come for Apas' head was at least a Ruler-level creature. The Cruel Ocean Serpent was only a little weaker than the Dark Swordmaster!

If they were on land, with Mo Fan's current strength and the help of his teammates, he might have had a chance against the Ruler-inferior creature, but if he was fighting on the sea...

First, the sea greatly limited Mo Fan's Fire Magic. His powerful Fire Magic and the fighting capacity he had when Possessed by Little Flame Belle was his best trump card when fighting a Ruler-level creature. Without it, a Ruler-inferior creature could easily kill him.

Second, the Beast Tide spell was completely useless, too. The Moon-Devouring White Wolves, Enormous White Wolves, and White-Marked Wolves were all landlubbers. If they were Summoned onto the sea, they would end up like dumplings in boiling water. Last but not least, his enemy could move freely in the water, while his movement was greatly restricted!

”Are we fighting?” Mu Bai asked.

”Mu Bai, how long will it take you to freeze the surface of the sea?” Mo Fan said.

”An area this size? It least ten minutes,” Mu Bai replied.

”...” Mo Fan was left speechless.

Ten minutes was enough for the creature to digest them into poop. If only Mu Ningxue was here, it would only take her a few minutes to freeze the surface. That would significantly lift the restrictions that Mo Fan was under!

Mo Fan was giving Mu Bai a how-useless-are-you look when Heidi, who was eavesdropping on their conversation, blurted out as a thought crossed her mind, ”There's an island behind the mist ahead. Let's fight it there!”

”Great idea!”

”I'm only worried if this shitty yacht will make it that far.”

”What did you say? I spent so much money on the yacht. I gave it the name Le Grand Amour! Damn it, if that thing dares to destroy my yacht, I'm going to skin it and use it to cover my deck!” Zhao Manyan yelled.

”Enough talk, hurry up and set up a defense around the ship. Otherwise, it can smash your yacht into pieces with a single wave of its tail!” Mo Fan told him.

The Cruel Ocean Serpent did not attack right away. It was obviously probing the strength of the extra people on the yacht. Its long body undulated slowly as it drew closer to the yacht!

It quickly finished probing their strength. It was on the move!

The Cruel Ocean Serpent was massive. Its head reached the right side of the yacht and drew a huge arc under the water. Its long body was curling around the area that the boat was in!

It felt like the yacht had reached a dead end, surrounded by black reefs. The white yacht was like a leaf that was going to sink at any second. Its size was a great contrast to the Cruel Ocean Serpent's massive body.
