Chapter 640: A Large-scale Performance, Disturbance in the Sea's Aura

The next day.

Cuiyun War Zone.

The series of chain reactions caused by the "pebble" Cheng Han dropped on the lake finally reached the pier where he was.

Originally, he planned to use his connections as a steward to infiltrate a flight heading to Rong Island as a temporary staff member.

But now...

There was no need for that at all.

Due to the sudden increase in personnel heading to Rong Island, the pier had temporarily doubled the number of flights and added extra staff for each flight.

Cheng Han was selected and became a temporary worker.

Early in the morning, when he arrived at the pier...

Cheng Han found that Pier No. 6 was completely crowded, with a large group of black-robed Xuan Shi guarding a Xuan Formation, preparing for inspection. There were even figures of Xuan Shi.

He watched this scene and his mouth curled slightly. "Relying on a mole to develop more moles won't work anymore. Madam Snake can only take action herself."

Jiang Xiaoguang walked over and sighed softly, "It's been a long time since I've seen such a big scene at the pier. I'm afraid something big is about to happen."

Cheng Han nodded in agreement. "Yes."

Jiang Xiaoguang continued with some gossip, "Everyone is saying that a new type of weapon will be tested on Rong Island today."

Cheng Han chuckled inwardly and replied, "I heard that there is a large army of sea creatures gathered in the sea area four thousand kilometers east of the war zone. This test is probably aimed at them."

He chuckled inwardly, feeling more and more confident that this time it would be a success.

Even ordinary people think so, so Madam Snake must have the same idea, which means her avatar will probably take action.

Otherwise, if Madam Snake released so many avatars at once, would it just be for show?

Furthermore...

Madam Snake is currently in a state of being dependent on others and is not well-regarded by many sea gods.

If she hears some key information but fails to understand it, the sea gods will become even more hostile towards her.

Therefore...

The pressure from within will force this avatar to take action.

This is the ultimate goal of this fishing expedition - to lure out the avatar of the Snake God near Lian Island.

In short - to lure the snake out of its hole.

After two hours of waiting...

Cheng Han and his colleague Jiang Xiaoguang, as temporary crew members, boarded a wooden raft.

A large group of people dressed as craftsmen began to line up to board the ship.

Cheng Han watched this scene and nodded approvingly in his heart. "The efficiency of the main commander in the Cuiyun War Zone is quite high."

Gathering so many craftsmen in the courtyard was just to cooperate with the performance.

Only the main commander knew the situation, and everyone else treated it as a real event, fully devoting themselves to the performing arts.

Jiang Xiaoguang couldn't figure out the situation and sighed again, "There must be at least three thousand craftsmen here at the pier, the war zone is planning to make a big move!"

Cheng Han agreed again, "It will be big, not small!"

Madam Snake would never have expected that one day she would encounter such a grand scene of "the entire war zone acting together."

Jiang Xiaoguang glanced at the craftsmen a few more times and sounded a bit puzzled, "Why do I feel like the discipline of these craftsmen is comparable to that of soldiers?"

Cheng Han casually made up a story, "Maybe they have received military training in their daily lives."

Jiang Xiaoguang nodded, "That's possible."

One minute later.

"Ding Ling~"

The bell rang.

"Prepare to set sail!"

Cheng Han swiftly untied the rope and called out, "Xiaoguang, pull!"

Jiang Xiaoguang stood on the deck and shouted, "Alright," as he helped pull the rope back.

Not far away,

A middle-aged man dressed as a craftsman stared at Cheng Han's figure, his face full of astonishment.

This person was so shocked, as if he had witnessed something incredibly unbelievable.

Jiang Xiaoguang turned his head and glanced at the middle-aged man, reminding him, "Sir, the wooden boat will be quite bumpy after leaving the port. For safety reasons, please return to the cabin."

The middle-aged man ignored him.

Jiang Xiaoguang repeated, "Sir..."

He had only said two words.

And he was interrupted.

Suddenly, another craftsman took a step forward, crossing a distance of over ten meters in an instant, and appeared in front of Jiang Xiaoguang.

Jiang Xiaoguang was startled, "You..."

He only said one word.

And was interrupted again.

The eyes of the craftsman were filled with an extremely imposing aura, "Shut up!"

Jiang Xiaoguang felt a buzzing sound in his head, and his mind immediately went blank.

After a second,

He regained his senses and took a fearful step back, no longer daring to speak.

At this moment,

Jiang Xiaoguang finally realized that this craftsman and the middle-aged man were definitely not ordinary craftsmen, but rather people with great influence.

He immediately saw "Xiaosun," who had just joined the dock, quickly stepping onto the deck.

The middle-aged man suddenly took a step forward and respectfully saluted, "Greetings, General Commander!"

Jiang Xiaoguang was momentarily confused.

What General Commander?

The next moment,

Jiang Xiaoguang saw Xiaosun smiling and responding, "General Li, everything is well!"

His mind was suddenly enlightened, and he understood everything in an instant.

Oh my god!

Could it be that Xiaosun is the General Commander?

Could it be that the middle-aged man is General Li from this theater of war?

Jiang Xiaoguang couldn't believe it.

But everything he had just experienced, especially the performance of that craftsman, seemed to prove that it wasn't an illusion.

On the other side,

General Li Zongbai had never felt so emotional before.

He witnessed with his own eyes the General Commander, actually chatting with an ordinary dock employee and personally tidying up the ropes of the wooden boat.

Honestly speaking,

At the moment when he saw the General Commander smiling and untying the ropes, General Li Zongbai felt as if his worldview had been shattered.

At this moment,

Li Zongbai took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and put on a gesture of apology, "I apologize for not welcoming you, General Commander."

This was just a polite remark.

After all, the General Commander had come to this theater of war, and not being able to greet him immediately was somewhat lacking in etiquette.

Cheng Han waved his hand indifferently and spoke frankly, "It's alright, I'm just here for a secret investigation this time."

Upon hearing the words "secret investigation," Li Zongbai couldn't help but feel a sense of nervousness, as if he were a student facing a teacher.

Cheng Han quietly changed the topic, "If I hadn't discovered the traces of the Snake God's avatar, I wouldn't have shown up at all."

Li Zongbai didn't know how to respond. He racked his brains for a moment before finally squeezing out a compliment, "General Cheng's strategies are brilliant, and the Snake God's avatar will definitely fall into your trap."

Cheng Han smiled faintly, "I hope so."

He glanced at the Starry Sky Projection Chart from the corner of his eye and suddenly noticed that the position of the snake shadow had changed.

This meant that the Snake God's avatar had moved.

In other words, the plan was starting to work.

Meanwhile, Jiang Xiaoguang was taken away by another craftsman and led into a small cabin.

The craftsman waved his right hand, and a silver-threaded black robe appeared on his body.

This was the standard attire of a Xuan Master.

Jiang Xiaoguang was taken aback for a moment and quickly saluted, "Master Xuan!"

At this moment, he finally realized that Little Sun was indeed the general, and the middle-aged man was the commander.

Otherwise, how could a Xuan Master like him play the role of a gofer?

"You stay here. Until the matter is resolved, you are not allowed to step out of the door," the Xuan Master's voice sounded a bit indifferent.

Jiang Xiaoguang quickly replied, "I understand!"

He recalled his experiences of the past two days and felt a sense of wonder in his heart.

I actually worked at the same dock as the esteemed general and spent a whole day together.

It's truly unbelievable!

*

An hour passed in a hurry.

Just as the towering Tianhai Banyan Tree grew twice its size in their field of vision, Cheng Han suddenly looked towards the sea and his lips curved, "The God is about to make a move!"

Li Jiangzhu couldn't help but be stunned.

On the Starry Sky Projection Chart.

The snake shadow had already left its hiding place and was about thirty kilometers away from Lotus Island.

It was lurking at a depth of ten kilometers underwater, heading towards the route between Lotus Island and Rong Island.

It was obvious.

This snake avatar had finally taken the bait and intended to personally go to Rong Island to investigate the situation.

And this was a safe distance.

The aftermath of the battle between the God and it would not affect Lotus Island.

In the next second.

The vast sky above suddenly turned fiery red.

A terrifying and awe-inspiring wave suddenly descended from the sky.

Li Zongbai looked up and blurted out, "Under the command of the Candle Melt God."

Originally, the commander had been skeptical about whether they could lure out the Snake God's avatar, but now he fully believed it.

On the Starry Sky Projection Chart.

The snake shadow sensed danger and swiftly rushed towards the sea surface, heading directly towards a raft.

But it wasn't the boat where Cheng Han was.

It was another raft.

It was clear.

This avatar realized that it couldn't escape and decided to drag a boatload of people to their deaths.

However.

This snake had made a wrong move.

"Ka-da!"

The sound of the rotating virtual pointer resounded.

A hazy shadow of a celestial disc appeared out of thin air, precisely enveloping the floating wooden boat.

The Starry Divine General made a move.

At the same time.

A strand of incredibly brilliant crimson light descended from the high sky and instantly submerged into the sea.

In a moment.

"Boom!"

A thunderous sound.

A giant water column rose from the sea, instantly reaching a height of ten kilometers.

Li Zongbai suddenly witnessed this scene and couldn't help but show a look of astonishment.

Cheng Han, who had seen many divine battles, showed no change in expression.

He glanced at the Celestial Chart and smiled with satisfaction.

The snake shadow had disappeared without a trace.

This also meant that this clone had been killed by the divine general in one strike.

Cheng Han blinked his eyes and silently recited, "Calculation."

Stars appeared.

Halo flashed.

The center of the picture flashed, fully displaying the process of the snake shadow's death:

A crimson spear shadow descended from the sky and pierced through the vast sea in the blink of an eye, accurately hitting the snake shadow.

The snake shadow was instantly ignited, and its physical body and soul rapidly turned into ashes.

Cheng Han suddenly exclaimed, his expression becoming somewhat confused.

Because he faintly sensed the breath of the sea, as if there had been a brief connection with the clone.

After the clone died, the connection was immediately severed.

Cheng Han quickly conducted an analysis and his expression became even more strange. "This seems to be the active behavior of the breath of the sea, how strange."

In the previous battle in the Huizhou war zone, when hunting down the snake god's clone, this situation did not occur.

He muttered to himself, "Madam Snake is also considered an outsider, the breath of the sea would never actively approach her."

"But why did the breath of the sea actively intervene when this clone died?"

This is a very rare phenomenon.

And it is an illogical situation.

Because as the will of the world, the breath of the sea usually remains neutral and always plays the role of a "spectator."

Cheng Han couldn't help but think of the Mother of the Sea, vaguely feeling that there seemed to be some kind of connection between the two.

Li Zongbai noticed the slight frown of the Grand Marshal and curiously asked, "Sir, what's wrong with you?"

Cheng Han didn't answer, he just said, "The matter is over, I should leave!"

Originally, he planned to stay for a while and have a good chat with General Li.

But the discovery just now made him change his mind.

Before his words could finish.

Cheng Han's figure suddenly became blurry.

Li Zongbai only had time to bow and say, "Farewell, Grand Marshal."

Before he could finish his sentence.

Cheng Han had completely disappeared.

Li Zongbai looked at the empty deck, his expression filled with a hint of horror. "Why does this seem a bit like the rule of turning the real into the virtual?"

He gulped down a mouthful of saliva fiercely. "The Grand Marshal isn't even a Profound Marshal, yet he actually touched the rules?"
