Devil's Son-in-Law

Chapter 601: Sea Sacrifice

Chen Rui wore the blue charm shackles and was taken to a dungeon by 2 naga warriors. To his surprise, in addition to the sandmen, water elementals, and some sea tribes, the dungeon actually also had dark elementals. Obviously, they were all the ‘sacrifice’ for tomorrow’s sea sacrifice.

I remember that the Water Elemental King once said that the Dark Elemental King Hegel sent the dark elementals to explore the Black Sea several times, but all of them disappeared and never survived. Therefore, they chose the air route in the end. I didn’t expect they were actually imprisoned by the nagas in the Thunder Snake Island.

Chen Rui didn’t break free from the shackles, but he just thought quietly. If it is just Strena and Adeline, I still have some ideas to handle them, but I can’t do anything when facing Queen Naga Modesty who could even abandon her biological daughter. This is the Thunder Snake Island which is the base camp of nagas that is tightly guarded. There are plenty of powerhouses. Unless I give up this exploration and escape back to the Deep Blue Island, otherwise I can only adapt to the sea sacrifice tomorrow.

The night gradually became deep. There was an indistinct harp sound. Soon afterward, everything became silent. Only the whimpering sea breeze could be heard.

Early morning the next day, all the dungeon captives were taken out to the shore of the Thunder Snake Island.

10 large ships were moored by the sea. Chen Rui and others were escorted to the ship. This time there were a lot of captives. 4 ships were needed to ferry them. Each ship had a strict nagas guard to monitor the captives.

Queen Naga Modesty wore a golden crown on her head and embarked on the largest ship, followed by Adeline with a harp in her arms, and a group of naga warriors. With an order, they set sail.

The sail today was smooth. The ship was very fast. The huge sea snakes that appeared along the way strangely did not attack these ships as if they did not see them.

About 7 or 8 hours later, the nagas’ ship proficiently passed through an area covered with reefs and entered a new sea area. There was a lot of mist on the sea surface. It was almost impossible to see things. With Chen Rui’s eyesight, he could barely see the scenery within 500 meters. For the endless sea, this was already a very low visibility situation.

The 10 ships stopped. Modesty took out a translucent crystal ball with a small golden ship inside. As she threw the ball into the water, the golden sail ship suddenly appeared on the sea.

After a long silence, Modesty’s command sounded, “Return!”

This voice was unprecedentedly hoarse.

On the golden ship, Chen Rui looked at the naga girl who was holding the harp and crying bitterly. He sighed and comforted a few words.

Adeline wiped her tears and glanced at Chen Rui. Even though those dim eyes had no expression at all, Chen Rui felt a sense of being seen through inexplicably.

“Thank you, Sir Captain. But what makes me wonder is why I can’t feel the fear and helplessness of other people in your mind? This may be what you said, even if life is taken away, you will not give up hope?”

Chen Rui was extremely surprised, “Can you feel my heart?”

“Perhaps because my eyes can’t see, so my spirit sensing is slightly better than others. Furthermore, it is only in a special state that I can sense some mental fluctuations, which is useless.”

This is not a “slightly better” or “useless” ability! Chen Rui had a different expression. My current strength is the peak stage of the Demon Emperor on the surface, and my spirit power has reached the S-level of the Demon Overlord level. Even the peak stage of the Demon Overlord powerhouse can’t see through my mood swings. Let alone this kind of spirit sensing!

This naga girl, who has no combat power and was regarded as abandoned by the tribe, actually has such a special talent!

Adeline explained guiltily, “Sir Captain, please forgive me, I didn’t mean to spy on your heart.”

“It’s okay, just call me Aguile.” Chen Rui shook his head, “Ms. Adeline, I want to ask, where is the legendary Hidden Misty Island?”

“Hidden Misty Island is the core of the Hidden Misty Sea. Its location is a mystery in this sea area. However, as far as I know, the Hidden Misty Island is actually mobile in a certain large area. It will appear in a certain location for a fixed period of time. It usually changes once a year. Our current direction is the only way to go to Hidden Misty Island which is said to have many magic items with special effects. When I was a child, my sister had secretly taken me to the sea and wanted to use my spirit sensing ability to find the Hidden Misty Island, but unfortunately, we came back in vain...”

As Adeline said, her eyes suddenly turned red and lowered her head. Chen Rui shook his head, “Ms. Adeline, don’t be sad. Although you don’t have a good mother. You have a good sister. You should feel fortunate.”

“You’re wrong,” Adeline shook her head, “She is a good mother, but this good mother belongs to all nagas. Because of this, so...”

Chen Rui looked at the naga girl who had spirit sensing ability and was considerate in surprise. An urge to protect her suddenly surged in his heart.

Adeline didn’t say much on this topic. She plucked the harp string, “The golden ship is about to enter the Sea God area. We are running out of time. Let me listen to your “Castle in the Sky” again, okay?”

“Of course...” Chen Rui’s mind shifted, “One last question, what exactly is Black Sea God?”

“It is the ruler of the Black Sea who has enslaved the naga tribe for many years. It controls the survival of the phantom coral. It generally lurks in the deep sea and appears every 10 years. At this time, the naga tribe will hold a sea sacrifice and give a large number of creatures with corresponding life levels as sacrifices. Otherwise, even if Sea God does not punish the naga tribe, the naga tribe will face extinction if it just cuts off the vitality of the phantom coral.”

So that’s the case! Chen Rui felt astonished. If it is able to enslave the powerful naga tribe, the strength of this ruler is likely to exceed the level of an ordinary high-level powerhouse and is probably invincible. Just now Adeline said that this direction is the only way to the Hidden Misty Island. It seems that I can only take a risk.

While Chen Rui was thinking, there were already changes in the waters in front. An unusual undulation appeared in the mist, rushing in the direction of the 5 ships with the sacrifices.

Thunder Snake Island.

After the sea sacrifice ended, the 6 ships sailed back to the shore.

Queen Naga Modesty slowly got down from the big ship. During the return journey, the nearby naga elite guards could feel a certain strong emotion suppressed in the queen’s heart. No one dared to say a word.

However, as soon as Modesty went ashore, he saw a 6-armed elite naga reported in a panic, “Bad news! Chief. The magic cage that imprisoned the young tribe chief was broken, and the whereabouts of the young chief is unknown! According to the guard who was knockout, it should have happened in the morning!”

“What?” Modesty was taken aback. She was unable to maintain her usual calmness, and she suddenly let out an extremely furious roar.

At the same time, before the sacrificial ship, those undulating waves were getting closer and closer. A strange shape of sea beast appeared. Its dorsal fin was out of the water while the rest of the body was in the water. Its traveling speed was very fast which was kind of like sharks. There were tens of thousands of them like a dense ocean tide.

These demonic sharks began to attack the sacrifice ships. One of the weakest defensive ships began to flood under the fierce attack and gradually sank. Under the attack of the demonic sharks, the corpse disappeared. The sea water was quickly stained and became the color of blood red.

This scene made the rest of the people panic. Some struggled to control the ship, but the ship still uncontrollably followed the golden main sacrifice ship to sail forward.

The main sacrifice ship was also violently attacked. Adeline hugged the harp tightly, and her body trembled. Chen Rui turned his hand, and the blue charm shackles instantly turned into powder and disappeared, then he quickly released the shackles of the water elementals and the sandmen, but this main sacrifice ship did not have any weapon facilities. Under the influence of the main sacrifice imprint, it kept sailing forward, unable to turn around and escape.

As Chen Rui extended a hand, several huge white light balls blasted out and burst into the water which instantly killed several demonic sharks. The ferocity of these demonic sharks was even above the sea snakes. They quickly devoured the corpses of their companions and began to attack more violently. In the blink of an eye, 2 more ships sunk, and none of the sacrifice creatures on the ship survived.

At this moment, a roar sounded. A figure jumped up high from a ship behind and fell into the group of demon sharks in the sea. They could only see scimitar lights all over. The corpses of the demon sharks surrounding the golden ship were torn away by the scimitars. The road was cleared in the blink of an eye.

This familiar roar made Adeline’s body tremble, and she blurted out, “Sister!”
