Chapter 903: Chapter 273: Hurry and Ask Miss Aleister!_3

Therefore, the sea monster took the dripping mooring line magic potion for the ship’s body fluid or excrement… Now, just like it preys on other sea monsters, it shakes the potion intending to pour out the body fluid… or to “terrify the ship”, hoping to excrete even more waste.

And sea monsters cannot be communicated with; they are truly monstrous—this is the trouble.

Their strength, once transformed into the Path of Dusk, is like Transcendents from the bygone Path of Strength, downgraded by half a level, far weaker than other Transcendents of the same energy level…

Yet the only possible explanation for the near-Fourth Power Level peak pressure faced by Professor Laximi is one situation.

— This seemingly younger sea monster is actually a powerful Fifth Power Level enemy!

Even if its strength was halved, this is still not an opponent Professor Laximi can handle…

On this ship, there can only be one… or rather, a group of Fifth Power Level Transcendents.

That would be “Aleister”, and her butler.

All we can hope for now is her willingness to take action… If she doesn’t, this ship might just fall apart!

Let’s not talk about how many people the unsatiated and enraged sea monster will devour—at the rate that even if they were lucky to survive its jaws, they would still need the whole night to reach Star Antimony!

Swimming while clinging to driftwood for about eight hours… and that’s if they don’t get lost and take the shortest route. Only Third Level Transcendents could possibly do this.

At this moment, something else suddenly protruded from the sea.

— It was the “head” of the sea monster.

It looked like a colossal piece of coral, with a beautiful young girl dressed in a “white wetted gauze dress” standing on it.

Her hands joined together as if in prayer, and once she rose above water, she began to sing a melodious song.

Professor Laximi finally recognized the species of this sea monster—

— It is a “Sea Bride”!

It appears as a girl trapped within the sea, but this is merely its predatory stance of camouflage. Its real head is actually underneath the “coral”, which is in fact just its “hat”.

If anyone is enticed by the beauty or gets curious about the song and approaches, they would be instantly shredded by tentacles lurking below the surface!

It’s universally known that sea monsters prey on souls, regarding Transcendents and other superhuman lives as their proper diet. Ordinary fish might fill their stomachs, but can’t soothe their restless souls.

If a hero is killed by a sea monster, they cannot go to the Dream Realm to become an Angel Envoy… although this doesn’t really concern most people.

Because in reality, most souls are merely recycled and reused, the material for new souls. However, many still believe in “reincarnation” and crave the eternal life of the Dream Realm, thus people also fear these sea monsters. Even heroes who make a living hunting monsters seldom venture into the deep sea to hunt.

And when Professor Laximi heard that song, he sensed trouble.

Almost instantly, he was overwhelmed by a great drowsiness. This was only because the Path of Dusk has abnormal resistance to mental attacks, otherwise, he would have fallen asleep just like those sailors.

In an instant, only two people remained awake on the deck.

One was him, and the other was the captain, who was struggling to persevere. The captain tried to block his ears, only to find it useless as he gradually knelt down, curling up into a ball.

“This is a power corrupted from the Path of Beauty—”

Professor Laximi couldn’t help but say: “This is a song that acts directly on the soul… no use trying to block it.”

“— Is that so.”

At this moment, an aloof and childish voice spoke: “I think not necessarily.”

The next moment, the singing sea monster suddenly let out a sharp scream.

As if seeing something terrifying, it quickly released its tentacles entangled around the ship… and made a clumsy attempt to flee!

And in an instant, scorching flames erupted from the ground—

The night turned into day in a flash.

Massive flames lit up the sky!

Several beams of light instantly sliced the sea monster into segments!

But at this time, strangely… the sea monster suddenly stopped fearing, angrily turned back to retaliate.

Following that, an immensely large column of fire coalesced and struck down—hitting the sea monster directly on its head!
