Beauty and the Bodyguard

If put in an actual combat, there would be a huge gap between heaven and earth. No matter how hard she tried her best, no matter how much she plotted, she would only be slapped to death in a real fight.

Even this may not be Lin Yi's full strength.

At first, Ning Wanjun still wanted to take advantage of the chaos to escape, but now, she has taken the initiative to kill such ridiculous thoughts.

Once Lin Yi's murderous intention is aroused, she really has only one way to die.

Her only thought now was to quickly fulfill the agreement and find twenty super sea beasts for Lin Yi. As for the rest, she didn't dare to think too much about it.

"This woman is quite smart."

Jiang Xiaoshang, who was watching the excitement in the sea of ​​consciousness, gave a pertinent comment, and then asked curiously: "When she helps you find twenty super sea beasts, will you really let her go like this?"

Lin Yi took it for granted: "That's natural, I'm a man of my word."

After a pause, he added faintly: "But if there is any danger and she needs my rescue, the price will have to be calculated separately."

"..."

Jiang Xiaoshang held it in for a long time before saying: "You are indeed an honest and reliable young man."

Lin Yi smiled nonchalantly. He had already passed the stage of following the rules now, especially when faced with a master like Ning Wanjun who was definitely not a good person. If he was too honest and kind, he would be the one who suffered.

At this moment, another voice suddenly sounded in his sea of ​​consciousness.

"Lin Yi, from now on, I can have one-way contact with you once every day, and I will provide you with real-time updated intelligence information."

Lin Yi was slightly startled. The owner of this voice was Hai Wutian who was guarding the ruins of the empire.

"There are a total of one hundred and sixteen people participating in the selection trial. Seventeen of them have been eliminated and lost contact. There are currently ninety-nine people left."

"Because the scope of the empire's ruins is too large, relying solely on your own luck may not yield results even if it takes ten or eight years. Therefore, Lord Poseidon will regularly issue oracle instructions to delineate the area where the Sea Crown is located for you."

"This is the map of the imperial ruins that I spent a lot of money to get. It has been marked. Please take a good look at it."

Along with the words, a huge map appeared out of thin air in Lin Yi's sea of ​​consciousness, with a range circled in it.

Lin Yi was secretly speechless.

In order to catch super sea beasts in the past two days, the area he traveled through was by no means small. However, when compared to this map, the area he explored was actually insignificant, not even one ten thousandth!

In comparison, the circled area was much larger.

As a rough estimate, if we really explore that area in detail, it would take at least a year and a half!

"You just head towards the designated area. After that, every time the oracle comes down, the area will continue to be narrowed. Of course, if someone is lucky enough to find the Sea Crown early, it will end early."

"I hope your luck isn't too bad."

Hai Wutian has full confidence in Lin Yi's strength, but unfortunately in this trial mechanism, luck obviously plays a large role.

It can even be said that luck will be the decisive factor before the delineated area is narrowed down to a certain range!

However, Lin Yi didn't think so.

Luck is certainly important in this mode, but the dominant factor is still strength.

At this time, Ning Wanjun had obviously received information from the outside world, and she suddenly took the initiative to ask: "Senior, you are so powerful, it would be a pity not to compete for the position of King of the Near Sea."

Lin Yi glanced at her with a half-smile: "This is different from what you said at the beginning."

Ning Wanjun shook her head and said: "If the Nu family only has the strength of the Nu family, the King of the Sea is naturally an extravagant hope. Even if he is lucky enough to get the Sea Crown, it will be a disaster rather than a blessing, but it is different for a master like you, senior.

We are in an unstable position, but with your strength, it is not a problem.

Once you can secure your position, the interests involved behind it will be astronomical. After all, you are the King of Offshore, a position of real power that ranks high in the world! "

Lin Yi said calmly: "The Sea Crown cannot be found by relying on strength. I have no confidence in my luck."

"It does require luck to a certain extent, but with your strength, senior, you can actually minimize the element of luck!"

Ning Wanjun lowered her voice and said: "As long as you kill the other trialists you meet along the way, then luck will not be so important. After all, if you are the only trialist left, then all luck is destined to be nothing but It's yours."

This is a devilish suggestion.

Lin Yi looked at her thoughtfully: "According to your wishes, should I kill you as well?"

Ning Wanjun said calmly: "The Nu family's strength does not pose any threat to you, not to mention that the Nu family still has some value to you."

As someone who is used to seeing people's sinister nature, and even being a part of it herself, she knows very well that Lin Yi will never let her go easily.

Even the best outcome would be to serve as Lin Yi's tool until the end of this selection trial.

If there was even the slightest glitch in the process, her human-shaped bait would most likely be discarded and buried in the mouth of a super sea beast.

Naturally, she was unwilling to suffer such a fate.

Since she couldn't escape in the chaos, the only way she could think of to save herself was to increase her value in Lin Yi's eyes as much as possible.

As a pretty woman, she considers herself to be of great value. Unfortunately, Lin Yi doesn't accept this trick at all, so she can only settle for the next best thing and become Lin Yi's dog-headed strategist.

She still has some confidence in her own resourcefulness.

In the end, Lin Yi was non-committal: "Do your job first and then talk about it."

Ning Wanjun suddenly felt like she had been hit by a ball of cotton. She thought that she had been pretending to be a good little woman for two days, so the other party should have let down some of their wariness about her.

Based on her past experience of playing tricks on men, Lin Yi would definitely be tempted even if he didn't take the bait, allowing her to take advantage of him.

I didn't expect such a result.

In the days that followed, Lin Yi headed towards the designated area given by Hai Wutian while continuing to catch various super sea beasts to increase his faith.

And as his control over the rules of the ocean continues to soar, his actions on the bottom of the sea are becoming more and more comfortable. Compared to what he does on land, not only is he not weakened at all, but he actually has a slight bonus.

In just one day, he reached nine points of Poseidon Belief, raising his control over the ocean rules to 25%!

"This feeling...is a bit exaggerated..."

Feeling the surging power of ocean rules in his body, Lin Yi couldn't help but become more and more fascinated by the next improvement.

Like the beast transformation rules, although the ocean rules are only second-level rules, their lethality is not inferior to some top-level rules, especially the ability to kill in large areas, which is simply unparalleled.
