203: Chapter 203 The councilor kneels, the ferry bares its fangs

Buzz—!

An invisible Shockwave centered on Wang Zhen expanded outward frantically in a ring.

The air was compressed into an ear-piercing shriek, and visible ripples spread out.

[S-Rank Talent: Shockwave]!

This deeply hidden Sleepless City councilman finally revealed his last trump card at the critical moment of life and death.

He clenched his fists and smashed them hard against the void in front of him.

The space within a hundred meters ahead let out a dull thud, and the seawater was instantly cleared by the terrifying resonance frequency.

A vacuum zone a hundred meters wide and bottomless was forcibly split open on the black ocean surface.

Several rotten meat tentacles as thick as water vats had just lunged in front of him when they were hit head-on by this Shockwave force.

There was no stalemate, no dispersion of force.

The tentacles shattered inch by inch!

Turning into a sky full of foul-smelling blood rain, they pelted down onto the deck!

"Huff... huff..."

Wang Zhen gasped for air, his clothes soaked through with cold sweat.

That strike just now had drained most of his stamina.

Turning his head, he looked at the young man still leisurely standing on the shadow walkway and roared hoarsely:

"Chen Du! Is my sincerity enough yet?!"

"As long as you save me and bring me aboard today, I'll give you half of the entire Sleepless City's supply warehouse! It'll all be yours!"

Half of Sleepless City's supplies?

Any other survivor would have rushed forward with bloodshot eyes by now.

But Chen Du didn't.

His fingers gently peeled a mint candy and tossed it into his mouth.

He crunched it with a snap.

"Nuonuo."

He tilted his head slightly. "Turn the wind down a bit; it's messing up my hair."

"Oh, oh, okay, Great Captain!"

An Nuonuo quickly adjusted the output frequency of the air compression gauntlet, sending out a gentle breeze.

Wang Zhen watched this scene, his eyes nearly bulging out with blood.

Is this a freaking negotiation?

I'm fighting for my life, and you're over there enjoying the breeze and eating candy?!

There was simply no time for him to be angry.

The Abyssal Great Demon let out a deafening roar.

The recovery power of an Overlord Rank evil creature was perverse; those shattered tentacles regrew in the blink of an eye.

The sarcoma on the demon's chest writhed violently.

Over a dozen tentacles with barbs and slime flanked from all directions, once again locking onto the flagship, the judgment.

A bloody wind blew in their faces as the shadow of death descended once more.

"Protect the Councilman!"

Beside Wang Zhen, the last two A-Rank Awakened Ones exchanged a glance and rushed forward, gritting their teeth.

The burly man on the left crossed his arms and roared: [Titan Heavy Armor]!

Grayish-white diamond patterns covered his entire body as he swelled into a three-meter-tall diamond man.

The thin man on the right quickly formed hand seals: [Pyroblast]!

Two ultra-high-temperature fireballs emitting blinding white light smashed hard toward the tentacles in mid-air.

Fire and diamonds were the epitome of human Awakened Ones struggling in the apocalypse.

But in front of the hundred-meter-tall Abyssal Great Demon, they were not worth mentioning.

Pfft!

Corpse water poured down like a waterfall!

The two fireballs were extinguished without even making a splash.

Immediately after.

Several tentacles whipped down with the speed of lightning.

Crack!

The supposedly indestructible diamond heavy armor was as brittle as a cracker before the tentacles.

The diamond man was directly swept up by a tentacle.

Bang! Bang!

The two A-Rank powerhouses were crushed to death in mid-air.

Broken bones and internal organs mixed with blood splattered right at Wang Zhen's feet.

A deathly silence.

The councilman looked at the bloody mess at his feet, his legs beginning to shake uncontrollably.

The Four Great Vajras he was so proud of were completely wiped out.

Even the S-Rank Talent he took pride in was nothing more than an ant trying to stop a carriage before this monster.

On his shoulder.

His monstrous son, who had completely mutated and grown six spider legs, was laughing foolishly.

"Daddy... meat... I want to eat meat..."

Wang Zhen's psychological defense completely collapsed at this moment.

What dignity, what pride.

In the face of absolute death, they were worth less than dog shit!

Thump.

His knees smashed heavily onto the deck.

Wang Zhen lowered his head, his forehead pressed firmly against the steel deck.

"I submit..."

"Save me... As long as you let me live, I'll be your dog! The entire Sleepless City will be yours!"

On the shadow walkway.

A hint of mockery flashed in Chen Du's eyes.

To deal with an old fox like this, you had to crush his bones inch by inch before he would truly be obedient.

"Wouldn't it have been better if you were this straightforward from the start?"

Chen Du pulled his hand out of his pocket and snapped his fingers toward his back.

"Yaozhi, come over and put a collar on him."

Tap, tap, tap.

The sound of high heels stepping on the shadow walkway was crisp and pleasant.

Li Yaozhi pushed up the black-framed glasses on the bridge of her nose and stepped forward with her long legs wrapped in black stockings.

She walked to Chen Du's side and looked down at the kneeling Wang Zhen from a height.

Between two fingers of her right hand, she held a simple, ancient silver coin.

Ting—

With a flick of her thumb, the silver coin flew high into the air.

It tumbled in mid-air, reflecting a cold metallic luster.

Li Yaozhi put her slender finger into her mouth, and her pearly teeth bit down hard.

A drop of scarlet blood seeped from her fingertip.

She ignored the gale and blood rain before her, her red lips parting slightly.

Obscure, ancient syllables spilled from her mouth.

"With blood as the medium, the Word Spirit forms a contract..."

Buzz!

The drop of blood suddenly dispersed in the air, transforming into an eerie, twisted blood-colored rune.

The rune expanded rapidly in the wind, emitting an aura even colder than the surrounding corpse water.

"Fall."

Li Yaozhi pointed her finger.

The blood-colored rune pierced through the void and imprinted itself directly onto the bone of Wang Zhen's forehead!

"Ah—!!!"

Wang Zhen jerked his head back and let out a scream.

His hands clawed at his scalp, his fingernails digging bloody furrows into his forehead.

He felt as if his soul was being forcibly torn open.

Something forced its way in and took root in the deepest part.

If he dared to harbor even a single thought of disobeying the man before him, his soul would be annihilated.

Death Contract Curse!

Li Yaozhi withdrew her hand, her face turning slightly pale, her chest heaving a few times.

Casting a curse of this level beyond her rank was extremely draining for her.

Just then, a large hand wrapped around her slender waist.

Chen Du pulled her into his arms, his fingers gently caressing the soft flesh of her waist.

"Well done. I'll give you an extra meal tonight."

Hearing this, a blush immediately flared on Li Yaozhi's face.

She gave a soft "Mm."

This submissive appearance, as if ready to be taken at his whim, dazed the soldiers on the other ships.

Was this the witch who had just casually planted a terrifying curse?

Before this man, she was actually as docile as a cat!

Chen Du let go of Li Yaozhi.

The laziness on his face vanished, and two blinding flames erupted from the depths of his golden eyes.

An extremely domineering pressure swept across the entire scene along with his gaze.

The Abyssal Great Demon seemed to sense something.

Its water-vat-sized scarlet eyes suddenly locked onto Chen Du's direction.

Its giant mouth split open, letting out a deafening roar.

"Why are you roaring so loud?"

Chen Du picked his ear. "Do you really think you're the one in charge of this sea?"

He turned around and spread his arms.

The black trench coat on his back billowed wildly in the gale.

"Girls, the show begins!"

"Let these bumpkins see..."

"What real combat looks like!"

Just as he finished speaking.

From the sea hundreds of meters away, a mechanical roar that could pierce clouds and shatter rocks rang out!

ferry no. 0819 completely bared its fangs.

The camouflage plates at the bow slid down.

That hideously shaped electromagnetic rapid-fire cannon slowly turned its muzzle amidst the ear-piercing sound of grinding gears.

The eerie blue coils around the barrel lit up layer by layer, emitting a tooth-aching charging hum.

The blue light grew stronger and stronger.

Even the surrounding mist was dyed an eerie fluorescent blue.

This time.

The pitch-black muzzle was dead-locked onto that hill-like, disgusting head!
