Chapter 831: Calm Amidst the Frenzy
Chapter 831: Calm Amidst the Frenzy
Although Huang Mao couldn’t gauge Lin Yi’s exact strength, he could sense from Lin Yi’s actions that Lin Yi was definitely a more terrifying existence than Xiyue.Playing with someone like him, isn’t that more terrifying than suicide?
"I..."
Before Huang Mao could speak, Lin Yi landed a heavy punch on his right shoulder. The pain surged through him, and blood spurted out, splashing onto the sea surface.
"I was wrong! Please, I was wrong! I shouldn’t have spoken recklessly. Please spare me! Whatever you want or wish to know, I’ll tell you! Please spare me!"
Huang Mao’s face was full of terror as he continuously begged for mercy, but Lin Yi was not one to be easily fooled.
Never mind that Lin Yi had already grasped the information about the Dark Rising Organization on Depp Planet, even if he hadn’t, he could entirely read the information he wanted through the means of the Touch of Reincarnation.
In such a scenario, there was no need for Lin Yi to hold back.
"Would you really give anything?"
Lin Yi looked at Huang Mao, who was trying hard to force a smile despite his pain, and asked seriously.
Upon hearing the other party’s desire for something, Huang Mao suddenly felt a glimmer of hope for survival and quickly perked up, displaying a fawning demeanor.
"Yes, everything, if you want something, anything, you ask for, I have, I’ll give you."
In Huang Mao’s eyes filled with expectancy, Lin Yi said something that made Huang Mao utterly despair.
"This thing, you really have it, and on the entire Depp Planet, only you can afford to give it."
Huang Mao’s expression eased quite a bit at that moment.
But Lin Yi’s next sentence made him completely panic.
"What I want is your life!"
Before Huang Mao could react, Lin Yi flicked his finger on his head.
Huang Mao only felt his soul pierced, and in the next instant, he completely lost consciousness.
The saying about troublemakers coming from desolate places turned out to be quite true.
Taunting a beauty upon sight, not dying would be odd.
"The location of the planet’s Dark Rising Organization is quite secretive; regular people wouldn’t find it or even venture that way. Let’s head straight over."
Plop.
The sound of Huang Mao’s corpse hitting the water marked the end of this little episode.
Afterward, Lin Yi took Xiyue and flew swiftly towards the geographical location provided by the ring.
Due to their fast flying speed, the survivors they encountered along the way acted more rationally; from their speed alone, it was evident that Lin Yi and Xiyue were no pushovers, so they didn’t dare provoke or attempt to block them for robbery.
As for those bold enough to think of robbing Xiyue and the supplies, Lin Yi and Xiyue’s speed left them completely unresponsive.
By the time they spoke up, Lin Yi and Xiyue were already out of sight.
Throughout the journey, Lin Yi witnessed much of this oceanic planet’s layout.
Since over 99% of the planet’s surface is ocean, mineral extraction becomes particularly difficult.
This environment has led to a closed loop emerging.
The people of Depp Planet are intelligent and capable, but their technology is not advanced.
This is because they lack sufficient resources to support their experiments and technological development.
Without sufficient technology, resource extraction becomes a significant challenge, and technology cannot advance, making the work of extraction even more difficult.
On his way, Lin Yi saw many survivors existing in personal or organizational forms, and their homes were uniformly run-down. It was even challenging to find a complete piece of sheet metal.
Living like this, Lin Yi couldn’t imagine how difficult and boring life must be.
Naturally, Lin Yi wouldn’t pity these folks.
How the planet’s people live has nothing to do with him.
Coming here personally is purely to find that Star Core Fragment and the heads of two individuals.
The further they flew, the darker the skies became. Given Lin Yi and Xiyue’s speed, it took about three minutes for daylight to transition to a sunset scene.
Of course, Lin Yi and Xiyue were already getting closer to their destination.
Due to the impact of the lighting, the boundless sea had turned from azure to pitch black, giving a sense of gloom and oppression.
Through the dim waters, Xiyue could see many deep-sea beasts lurking beneath the surface, their eyes emitting a faint green glow, staring unblinkingly at Lin Yi and Xiyue.
Making Xiyue feel that if the two of them stopped, these monsters would attack en masse, even though she knew the giant creatures in the sea were not a match for someone possessing the Power of the Primordial like herself, Xiyue still felt her scalp tingling from their gaze.
"The monsters here are indeed much stronger than those on Blue Star, but attempting to pose a threat to us is unrealistic."
Lin Yi saw through Xiyue’s thoughts and initiated the conversation.
While Xiyue’s face showed a look of relief.
It’s different from Blue Star.
On Depp Planet, every survivor is born for combat.
Why say so?
If they give up fighting and ruthlessness, they won’t survive on this planet.
Compared to the professionals of Blue Star, calling these survivors here wild beasts tearing flesh is not an exaggeration.
"I’m just a bit relieved."
"Relieved that our Blue Star didn’t encounter such a planet."
"The instinct to survive guides them to plunder by any means, but should this planet meet Blue Star and you weren’t there, it might be a disaster for Blue Star."
It’s not exaggerating to say the survivors here have a bloodthirsty instinct, and once they confront outsiders, they would be exceptionally united, knowing only to attack, their combat power would surely be overwhelming.
Upon hearing this, a hint of reminiscence flashed in Lin Yi’s eyes.
Blue Star hasn’t fully grown yet, and the untimely demise of Feng Sanyou is truly regrettable.
However, his sacrifice brought lasting peace to Blue Star.
"Don’t worry, the passive state won’t last for long."
"With this ring, our speed of finding materials will increase significantly, and killing just the two strongest won’t draw attention from All Celestial Divine Beings. I’ll get you a set of high-enhancement Mythical Equipment later as well."
As they spoke and laughed, Lin Yi and Xiyue had already reached the deep-sea center, a place akin to a Shura’s battlefield.
The raging sea, the roaring wind, the flashing lightning.
Occasionally, the lightning brightened the sea, revealing its original azure color.
Logically, such a harsh environment should be home to even more terrifying deep-sea monsters, yet surprisingly, after reaching this location, Xiyue couldn’t spot any monsters.
Hidden beneath the storm and Furious Thunder lies peace.
"We’ve arrived at the place."
"But according to the information provided by the ring, Depp Planet’s Dark Rising Headquarters is concealed beneath this Black Sea."
Intermittent lightning could illuminate tens of meters deep into the sea, clearly showing everything within.
But Xiyue was unable to detect any underwater structures.
This implies that Depp Planet’s Dark Rising Organization headquarters is likely hundreds of meters deep beneath the Black Sea, much more concealed compared to Yan Qiushui’s Dark Rising Headquarters.
