The Ocean Lord Is Unusually Powerful

PS: Gan! The title is wrong and cannot be changed! Should be: Ghost Pirates and Trials.

Dusty stone gates, dilapidated houses, slightly weathered stone buildings, and a slightly damp smell.

The scene in front of me was a bit strange.

If this is really Edward's lair, it would have been at least hundreds of years ago.

And they should be the first guests to come here, and they are also the ones who are about to find the treasure.

Ji Chen first came to the dilapidated house, stretched out his hand and gently opened the door.

Boom——

As soon as the fingers touched, the rotten wooden door fell down, stirring up a cloud of dust.

He took a few steps back and waited until the dust settled before walking in.

Most of the furniture in the house has been severely decayed, and only a few pieces of stone furniture are still intact. There are large holes in the eaves, and vines and weeds hang down from the holes.

He immediately saw the emitting crystals placed on a stone table.

But before he could get closer, the crystal suddenly emitted light and projected a figure in front of the stone table.

The figure is wearing a pirate costume, with a black eyepatch covering his right eye. The remaining eye reveals cruelty and cunning. Even if it is just a projection, you can still feel a bit of the aura of life.

Ji Chen squinted his eyes. If his guess was correct, this person should be the pirate Edward.

I saw this illusory projection looking straight ahead, speaking in an arrogant and unruly tone, as if ignoring everything.

"If someone finds this place, congratulations, you are only one step away from finding the treasure buried by Edward, the great pirate of the Western Mediterranean."

"I traveled across the Western Mediterranean for more than ten years and plundered countless ships, merchant ships, warships, and even the kingdom's warships. I dared to rob them!"

"The entire Western Mediterranean is trembling under my 'Whitebeard', and no one dares to disobey."

Hearing this, Ji Chen shrugged. He said it so powerfully, but in the end, he was seriously injured and returned here in despair?

Why do you think you want to rob the kingdom's ships?

Isn't it good to bully merchant ships? He insisted on seeking death.

After all, no matter how powerful a ship is, it cannot fight against an entire fleet.

Edward's projection showed a hint of resentment, "If there hadn't been a traitor who betrayed me and revealed my whereabouts to the enemy, how could I have been surrounded?"

"Although I escaped the encirclement and suppression in the end, I also received incurable injuries, which made my body weaker day by day."

"When I knew that my time had come, I returned here with all my wealth and the Whitebeard, and ordered my men to bury all my wealth and my body in the tomb after my death."

"I have also drawn several treasure maps in advance. If the lucky ones who pick them up can find this place, they can take away all the wealth I have plundered in my life!"

As he spoke, Edward showed a look of encouragement on his face, "If you are also a pirate, then I have another treasure to give you - my 'Whitebeard'."

Speaking of this, Ji Chen's eyes showed some interest.

"The Whitebeard is the most powerful warship in the Western Mediterranean. Obtaining it means you have the capital to dominate the ocean!"

"I hid it in a very secret place. No one can find it, but I can tell you that the clues to it are in my tomb, so go find it."

As soon as he finished speaking, Edward's projection suddenly disappeared.

Kara——

The crystal became dull and fell apart, leaving a group of pirates looking at each other.

Ji Chen touched his chin, digesting the information.

It looks exactly like what the pirates said.

At that time, the pirate Edward was seriously injured during the siege and fled back here with all his wealth and buried it all in the tomb.

But what he didn't expect was that besides these wealth.

Edward's flagship, the Whitebeard, also survived.

To be able to escape from the encirclement and suppression of a main fleet, it should be a very powerful battleship, at least much more powerful than the Crescent.

He was determined to get this ship.

Ji Chen looked at the crystal.

After the crystal was broken, a large metal key fell out of it, which should be used to open the stone door.

Because it was wrapped, it didn't seem to be rusty and was in perfect condition.

Without wasting any time, he walked out of the house and came to the stone door.

Soon I found a low stone pillar next to the portal with a jack on the top.

Insert the key and twist firmly.

With a rumbling friction sound, the stone door slowly opened, revealing a downward step.

The passage is so dark that the bottom cannot be seen clearly with the naked eye.

"The Naga warriors are leading the way, and the sea elves are ready to assist."

"Sparrow, you take half the pirates and half the murlocs to guard the door to guard against possible enemies."

Sparrow nodded seriously, "I will definitely pay more attention."

After Sparrow became a green hero, his combat effectiveness increased greatly, and he couldn't be more assured of having him guard the back road.

Ji Chen nodded slightly, signaling the other pirates to light the torches.

The torch lit successfully, which meant that there was air inside the tomb.

Seeing this, he felt relieved and started to move downwards with the rest of the army.

The flames dispersed the darkness and illuminated the steps leading down.

I don't know if it was his imagination, but it felt darker and darker the further down I went, and there was a chilly feeling on my skin.

But I didn’t care too much.

This is Edward's tomb after all. Since it is a tomb, it is quite normal for it to be eerie.

The tall body of the Naga warrior is like a shield, giving a heavy sense of security.

Sea elves were also flying nearby. No one would have thought that these cute little creatures, who looked harmless, possessed terrifying destructive power.

The shallow sea murlocs are crowding around, and their dull appearance will not remind anyone of them. Their tridents can penetrate gold and crack rocks.

It seems that only pirates are as fierce as they appear.

At this time, the pirates were all excited.

They are very interested in the treasure of the legendary great pirate Edward, who is also a pirate.

Pirates love nothing more than money.

The wealth that Edward had plundered in the Western Mediterranean for more than ten years was enough to make the dragon tempted.

Unexpectedly, the steps were very long. Ji Chen estimated that they had walked down dozens of meters.

There were cracks in the rough rock walls on both sides, and water seeped out of them. Streams of water flowed down the steps, making the passage even more humid.

Obviously, Edward did not build this place hastily before his death, but had already started building a tomb for himself.

But Edward may not have thought that he would die so quickly.

"My lord, we are almost at the bottom," Alice said softly.

Ji Chen took a closer look and saw that the steps had reached the end and came to a platform.

What comes into view is an underground space of several thousand square meters. It is more like an underground pool than an underground space.

Except for the high platform in the center and the platform at the foot, the other places are filled with water.

There is an exquisite sarcophagus on the high platform.

It probably contained Edward's bones.

Ji Chen looked left and right, but didn't find the so-called treasure there.

Could it be in the water?

Thinking of this possibility, he waved a few shallow-sea fishmen to jump into the pool to explore.

Wow——

The fishmen in the shallow sea jumped into the water one after another, with water splashing everywhere, and their posture when entering the water was zero.

But soon, they surfaced and started shaking their heads.

Two fishmen took out a few bones from the water and held them above their heads to claim credit.

Ji Chen couldn't help but be slightly startled.

At this time, the pool suddenly shook violently, and the water rippled as if there was an earthquake.

At the same time, dense red dots appeared on the all-seeing map.

He quickly reacted - the enemy was in the pool!

"Everyone is on alert! Stay away from the pool and be careful of enemies in the water!"

Whether it was the pirates or the Naga warriors, they all retreated a distance without hesitation after hearing the order.

A series of green and white figures suddenly rushed out of the water, suspended above the water as if they were defying gravity.

Although their bodies are a little unreal, you can still see that these figures are dressed like pirates.

Pirate costume. Ji Chen had some guesses in his mind.

Take a random look to see their panel information.

【Ghost Pirate】

[Race]: Undead

[Level]: 13

[Level]: Level 3, 2 stars

[Skill]: Soul attack (blue skill, capable of causing soul damage)

Soul Prisoner (blue skill, the soul cannot leave the underground space)

Swiftness (green skill, movement speed increased by 30%)

[Unit Characteristics]: Ghost Body (Immune to physical damage and mental control)

[The pirate who was killed and buried by Edward was disturbed by outsiders, and he was full of resentment at this time]

Soul attack!

Immune to physical damage and mind control!

Ji Chen narrowed his eyes.

This is the first time I have encountered such a monster. Alice's singing should not be effective against them. It seems that I need to be careful when dealing with them.

Just now, two funny fishmen took out a few bones from the water. It was probably because of this that they alerted these undead.

I don't know how many pirates were killed and buried with Edward, but there was a steady stream of ghost pirates rushing out of the water in front of them, staring at Ji Chen and the others with their white eyes.

"I hate it so much. Edward. Why should we be buried with him?"

"Why disturb us? Stay here with us."

"Give me the bones quickly."

These ghost pirates chanted intermittently, and then rushed over like a blue wave.

Ji Chen's eyes narrowed and he raised his hands.

The water in the pool hung upside down and condensed into hundreds of water blades in the air.

Press your palms down slightly.

The water blade was thrown towards the charging ghost pirates, silently but full of murderous intent.

"ah--"

Hereby——

Like the sound of water falling into an oil pan, a burst of white smoke rose up as soon as the water blade came into contact with the ghost pirate's body.

They let out sharp and painful howls, as if they were in great pain.

Seeing this, Ji Chen's eyes showed a hint of joy.

Spell attacks work wonders against these things.

"Sea Elf, shoot them hard!"

Upon hearing the order, the little cuties flapped their wings on their backs, their round faces became serious, and they waved their staffs.

call out--

boom--

Water arrows filled with violent energy shot out and exploded violently on the ghost pirate's body.

The sound of hundreds of water arrows exploding simultaneously caused the entire underground space to shake.

But it was like hitting a hornet's nest, and more ghost pirates emerged from the pool.

There was no fear on Ji Chen's face. He moved his hands together, and countless water blades condensed and shot out one after another.

Three or four water blades can destroy one.

Forced by the rain of water blades, these ghost pirates could hardly move forward.

The power of the Tide Lord profession was clearly revealed at this moment.

In the small underground space, there were violent explosions and ghostly screams.

Nearly half an hour of fighting.

When the last ghost pirate was eliminated, a system prompt came to his ears.

"Ding~ Gain 35800 experience points, your level has been improved (11→12)."

Ji Chen took a breath and smiled slightly.

This gave him a lot of experience points, which directly allowed him to level up.

In addition to him, the levels of other arms have also been increased.

Except for the sea elves, who are only at level 10, the rest have reached levels 11 to 12.

Alice has reached level 13 and is at the top of all arms.

Seeing that no ghost pirates emerged from the water, Ji Chen looked at the high platform in the center.

In the entire underground space, this is the only place that has not been searched.

Although it was unethical to open someone else's coffin, Edward didn't leave the treasure in a conspicuous place, so we can't blame him for opening the coffin to take a look.

A floating bridge formed on the water surface, and Ji Chen walked across it and stepped onto the high platform.

He signaled to the four Naga warriors to pry up the coffin lid.

Crunch——

The heavy coffin lid was slowly pried up and pulled away, rubbing against the coffin body harshly.

Ji Chen stared at the sarcophagus and couldn't help but be stunned.

There were no corpses in the sarcophagus, only a crystal and a parchment map.

Just when he was stunned.

The crystal glowed, casting Edward's shadow.

I saw him laughing.

"Unknown treasure hunter, when you see this projection, it means that you have passed the little test I left and are qualified to get my treasure."

"Cowards and weaklings are not worthy of my treasure,"

"I won't say anything more. The map in the sarcophagus can find the hiding place of the White Beard. I hope you can treat it well and let their reputation become famous all over the world again!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the crystal shattered cleanly, and Edward's projection disappeared.

Ji Chen and Alice stared at each other and fell into silence.

so.

Where is your treasure?

Suddenly, as if a mechanism had been triggered, the surrounding pool swayed slightly, and the water level dropped rapidly, gradually revealing the dense white bones underneath.

Layers of bones and silt completely covered the bottom of the pool.

These bones should be those pirates who were buried with them. They were killed by Edward and left here. Because of their resentment, they survived in the form of undead and became a test.

Ji Chen touched his chin and had an idea flash in his head.

"Sea Elf, fire a water arrow at the bottom of the pool!"

The water arrow shot out and exploded among the bones.

Broken bones flew and mud spread.

Seeing what was below, everyone's heart beat suddenly and violently.

Below, there is a layer of shiny gold coins!
