Chapter 287 Alger
On the western border of the Wuhun Empire, beside the vast sea, a majestic city stands.
Hanhai City, this sea-breathed city, was once the outpost of Wuhun Palace's defense against Poseidon Island. However, after Amon rose and became the number one threat to Wuhun Palace, the attention it received decreased greatly.
Compared with the sea soul master who hangs alone overseas and never participates in land battles, the ambitious and cunning Amon obviously needs to be more guarded against.
A young man wearing a blue-black military uniform, dark blue hair, and blue eyes walked to the city gate and looked at the majestic city without saying a word.
After watching for a long time, he finally lifted his legs and continued walking forward.
"Stop! Foreigner, are you a soul master?" Larov, who was wearing regular clothes but with a guard sword on his waist, walked over.
"Is something wrong?" Lei Yin asked calmly.
Larov said: "Now all mainland soul masters entering the city need to report to the Poseidon branch and receive their identity cards...
"There is a law enforcement team composed of sea soul masters patrolling the road. If you are asked to show your identity card, you must cooperate.
“If you cannot show it, you may be considered an enemy and attacked.”
Lei Yin raised an eyebrow: "Poseidon branch hall? Identity tag? As far as I know, this should be the territory of Wuhun Hall. Did they abandon this place?"
Larov's expression changed, and he reminded in a low voice: "Don't mention the name of that continental force here. Vast Sea City is now ruled by sea soul masters.
"Also, be careful of thieves... In Hanhai City, it is normal for your wallet to be stolen. If you encounter it, you can only consider yourself unlucky."
"Thief?" Lei Yin's eyes narrowed slightly.
Larov said with a gloomy look: "Thieves are very rampant here. My wallet was stolen again yesterday."
He nodded: "Thank you for the reminder."
Lei Yin was led by a guard to the Poseidon Branch Hall located near the city gate.
"A soul master from the mainland?" The deacon of the Poseidon Branch Temple could smell the temperament of Lei Yin that was different from that of a sea soul master at a glance.
"Tell me about the recent situation in the interior. Don't hide anything. If we find you talking nonsense, we will treat you like a spy."
The deacon is a soul sect, and he is exuding soul power at this moment, faintly pressing towards Lei Yin.
What about the situation inland... It seems that the sea spirit masters can't sit still anymore. The civil war in Douluo Continent also makes them feel uneasy.
But would it be a bit passive to just take control of Hanhai City and then understand the situation through inquiring soul masters from the mainland? How dependent are you on the sea? Not even willing to send someone to find out the news... Lei Yin thought to himself.
Lei Yin said some things that ordinary soul masters can know. Then he saw the soul sect deacon looking confused.
What? The Spirit Empire counterattacks?
The Tudor Empire is suffering from internal and external troubles, could it collapse at any time?
The last version I heard was that the Tuduo Empire was almost going to annex the Wuhun Empire!
The executioner nodded calmly:
"Very good, the information you mentioned is valuable, I will report it."
Then, he took out an identity card: "This is your identity card. Remember not to lose it, otherwise you will be in trouble. These are extraordinary times, so Hanhai City has strict control over mainland soul masters."
Lei Yin glanced at the identity tag in his hand. It was made of some kind of sea plant and had a fishy smell. He has a clear smile and a sign with a unique smell that can often be traced through some means.
But he didn't care about this and asked: "If I want to go to sea, who would be more suitable to go to?"
The soul sect's deacon's face darkened and he warned seriously: "Going to sea? You can't go to sea! Hanhai City explicitly prohibits anyone from assisting mainland soul masters to go to sea. Otherwise, they will be listed as apostates by Poseidon Island and be punished."
Lei Yin's face gradually darkened. His temper has not been so good recently.
Just when he was about to have an attack, the sea soul master deacon suddenly looked around, then lowered his voice and said quietly:
"This is what the regulations say. I must warn you. This is my duty. But you can go to Alger. He was once a subordinate of Captain Klein who made his fortune by going to sea.
“Later, after Captain Klein was unfortunately killed on a voyage, he bought a boat of his own and started ocean fishing.
"Everyone says that he is the man who is most familiar with the sea. He will help you find what you want. By the way, remember to say that I introduced you when you go to him...he will give me an introduction fee."
Leiyin found Captain Alger in a tavern. This is a middle-aged man with ocean-blue hair like himself. His face is resolute and his eyes are as deep as the sea.
"Hello...are you Captain Alger?" Lei Yin stepped forward to say hello.
"Mainland soul master? Are you here to hunt soul beasts?" Before Lei Yin could tell his purpose, Alger made it clear.
Seeing this situation, Lei Yin smiled: "It seems you are very experienced."
Alger took a sip of cider and said: "Yes, many mainland soul masters have approached me. I heard that there is something wrong with the Star Dou Forest. The cost of my voyage is not low. It depends on the year of the soul beast you want to hunt. Variety.
"You can wait for some time and join a group with others, which can bring a lot of discounts. Of course, if you are not short of money, you can also charter the boat yourself."
Lei Yin threw the soul guide ring, which was filled with various gems and gold coins. It was roughly estimated to be more than 100,000 gold soul coins.
"This is just a deposit."
Alger swallowed his saliva, as if dazzled by the huge wealth. After a long time, he said with some difficulty:
"Deposit... deposit? What kind of soul beast do you need to hunt?"
"Thunder attribute more than 200,000 years." Lei Yin answered calmly.
Alger's expression changed, and then he showed a bitter smile: "You are buying your life..."
He held the soul guide ring, struggled for a moment, and gritted his teeth and said:
"Done! But we will only send you to a specific sea area, and then stay away, and agree on a time... two days, or three days to pick you up."
"You don't need to pick me up, just put me in the sea area where the target soul beast often appears, and then I will give you the balance and give you an hour to leave." Lei Yin responded.
"Okay." Alger's face showed joy, "Give me a day to gather the crew, if that's all, it will be much safer."
The next day, the sky in the east just turned white, and the golden light shone on the sea. Lei Yin boarded Alger's sailboat.
Although it is a sailing ship, a soul guide propeller is installed at the stern. If necessary, the mast can be cut off and the soul guide can be used for fast sailing.
Before leaving, Alger confirmed again: "Are you really looking for a beast that is more than 200,000 years old? You mainland soul masters should know better than us how terrifying that thing is. It was only after the beast tide in the Star Dou Great Forest threatened you that we discovered that there was such a terrifying existence above the 100,000-year soul beast.
"I can't be sure that the soul beast I'm taking you to find this time is more than 200,000 years old. I only know that it is a very terrifying soul beast, which is definitely not comparable to ordinary 100,000-year soul beasts.
"Of course, I can't guarantee the authenticity of the news, nor can I guarantee that I can find the soul beast. I have only heard many related rumors. After all, few people who have seen that ghost thing can survive.
"If we don't find it, or if we find it, it doesn't meet your requirements, we can take you to other seas to find other rumored soul beasts."
Lei Yin nodded: "This is reasonable. "
Alger said in a low voice: "Then let me tell you about our first target. This is a sea monster called 'Steel Sea Dragon'. It is a special individual of the Emperor Sea Dragon.
"It has an indestructible body like steel and the power to summon thunder. According to rumors, it can turn the entire sea into a thunder field. When it is angry, the sky is covered with dark clouds and thunderclouds roll.
"If the rumors do not exaggerate its power, then this should meet your requirements. "
"Well, you arrange the itinerary and tell me after arriving at the target sea area." Lei Yin walked towards the cabin.
A sailor ran to Alger and asked: "Captain, is this really okay? Judging from his appearance, he may be in his twenties? He went to hunt that kind of monster alone? The sea area where the Steel Sea Dragon lives is one of the absolute forbidden areas on the sea!"
Alger waved his hand indifferently: "What does it matter? The rumored ‘Blood Emperor’ who stirred up the storm on the mainland is not very old…
“More importantly, the money he gave is enough. With this money, all of us on the ship can retire and live a stable life for the rest of our lives. Isn’t that good?”
The sailor smiled, “That’s true.”
Men who make a living on the sea are never afraid of gambling, because every time they go out to sea, they are risking their lives.
…………
Seagod Island, Seagod Temple.
Tang San walked to the Seagod Platform in the center and grasped the long handle of the Seagod Trident that was inserted upside down in the center, like a black stick.
At this moment, he felt as if he was holding the entire Seagod Mountain and the entire sea.
An indescribable sense of terrifying pressure filled his heart. He only felt that his arms were so heavy. He wanted to pull out the trident, as if he was pulling up the entire mountain.
The long handle was warm, as if blood was flowing. The divine pattern on Tang San’s brows bloomed with brilliance, and a hot power flowed through his body.
A faint golden color began to spread from the place where he was holding, and soon, the entire long handle exposed outside the Sea God Platform was dyed golden.
Tang San felt like he was holding a piece of iron, and waves of burning pain came from his palm. But he gritted his teeth and didn't let go. He had a hunch that if he let go at this time, he would never be qualified to hold it again.
A trace of blood overflowed from his palm and flowed onto the long handle.
Tang San had already released his martial soul body, and his soul power as high as the Titled Douluo level was fully erupted, and his bones creaked.
On the side, Ning Rongrong released the Nine Treasures Glazed Tower body, trying her best to add all the gains that could be added to Tang San.
Tang San injected his mental power into the trident brand on his forehead, and the Sea God Trident on the platform finally showed a slight shake.
The trident slowly lifted up, and the more it was pulled up, the heavier it seemed.
Tang San saw the part of the trident exposed above the ground, with a diamond-shaped hole, as if something was missing.
A thought exploded in his mind, and he remembered what Gehrman had said to him, "The Vast Sea Universe Cover is the key to the Sea God's inheritance"!
The missing part is the Vast Sea Universe Cover!
A blue triangle flew out from Tang San's brows, shot into the Sea God Trident, and embedded in the hole, just filling it up.
He suddenly exerted force, accompanied by a harsh friction sound and a burst of surging power, Tang San pulled out the entire trident.
