Chapter 641: Conversation with the Half-Mermaid
They had been deploying arrays from late night to the next day.
Outside the killing array, the spirit gathering array was covered with the defense array that was also covered with a concealment array…
The four arrays overlapped each other, which was the largest array combination Han Fei could work out now. Without the help of the Hexagon Starfish, these arrays couldn’t be fixed at all.
Seeing that he seemed to be unable to leave, the Hexagon Starfish suggested setting up another concealment array outside Han Fei’s concealment array. In this way, no one would discover them.
But Han Fei didn’t take his suggestion. He knew that the Hexagon Starfish didn’t believe in the effect of his concealment array. But it didn’t matter, although his concealment array didn’t seem to be so perfect.
But what he wanted was exactly this imperfection. Otherwise, if he perfectly hid it, how could he get the fish to the bait?
After making sure the arrays could be activated at his command, he came out of the arrays.
As soon as Han Fei came out, he perceived that Cao Qiu was flying in the sky 2,000 meters away.
Han Fei jumped out of the water, saying to him via voice transmission, Why are you still here?
Cao Qiu looked at Han Fei strangely. I thought maybe I could give you a hand if you were going to be killed by the Red Demon…
Han Fei rolled his eyes. Well you’re just in time. Back off 5,000 meters more and don’t let anyone get close to this area.
Cao Qiu wondered, Then what about you? Where are you going?
Han Fei grinned. I’m luring the enemy in deep. I have been here for so long, but I haven’t been out to sea.
In Cao Qiu’s view, Han Fei was a lunatic. Didn’t he know how dangerous the surrounding area of the Scattered Stars Island was? Didn’t he see so many Hanging Fishers only dare to patrol on the coast? How dare he, a peak-level Dangling Fisher who had just gotten a four-star ranking, go deep into the ocean!
Han Fei suddenly figured it out last night.
First of all, he was sure that yesterday’s attack was only a test.
He hadn’t been out to sea very much recently. The most recent time was when he went to the Path of Giants during the tide of Red Ghosts. Besides that, he made the breakthrough in the sea.
He must have been spotted by those Inferior Man-Fish who escaped. That was why the Red Demon came to investigate him.
But what could the Inferior Man-Fish see from him? Why did the Red Demon bother to drive a group of Inferior Man-Fish and Blue-Patterned Armored Shrimp here to see him?
Han Fei wasn’t sure. He guessed that something in him must have caught the Inferior Man-Fish’s attention during the breakthrough. This meant that there was something in him that attracted the Red Demon.
In this case, the appearance of the mermaid wasn’t accidental but was planned. This showed that the other party might really want to talk to him about something.
Han Fei thought this matter was weird, but couldn’t help being curious, so he took the Hexagon Starfish here to set up this killing array.
At this moment, Han Fei went 500 kilometers into the sea, during which an exotic Meteorite Conch jumped away from him.
Han Fei certainly wouldn’t let it go! He went deep into the sea to use himself as bait. So, at the very beginning, Little Gold had already attached to him.
So had Little Fatty. Although the Meteorite Conch’s speed was not fast, Han Fei wanted to use it as the sealed spirit of his ultra-quality battle suit.
A fight broke out in the water.
Meteorite Conchs devoured meteorite iron and had very strong defense.
More importantly, it was good at escaping by casting off its shell. When it was in danger, it would abandon its shell and escape into the sand.
After fighting for more than ten minutes, Han Fei caught this exotic Meteorite Conch.
Then he threw it into the Demon Purification Pot, and it only took less than three minutes to seal it in his battle suit.
This was a happy surprise, although it was the first time Han Fei used an exotic creature as a weapon spirit. At this moment, his ultra-quality suit was shining with a dazzling gleam.
Huh? Why haven’t the Inferior Man-Fish come over? Is it because the noise I made is not big enough?
Han Fei frowned slightly. This was beyond his expectation!
If he was targeted by the sea monster, there should be a lot of Inferior Man-Fish lurking near the Skeleton Shore at this moment.
Could it be that I’ve guessed wrong?
Han Fei wasn’t quite sure and simply began to practice the 108 Desolate God Body under the water.
And he set up a spirit gathering array when he was practicing the 108 Desolate God Body.
Under the dual call of spiritual energy and energy, maybe the Inferior Man-Fish would be attracted over soon.
After about half an hour, the Inferior Man-Fish hadn’t been attracted over yet but many other creatures nearby were. Han Fei even saw two exotic creatures among them.
A jellyfish with dazzling light.
A razor clam passed by.
However, neither of these stayed.
Han Fei was about to chase them, but the razor clam bounced away and disappeared.
The jellyfish was almost caught up by Han Fei, but just when Han Fei saw clearly that it was a lighthouse jellyfish, it suddenly burst into a dazzling glare and then disappeared after turning into a shadow.
“Heh! Pretty smart…”
Han Fei was preparing to continue practicing the 108 Desolate God Body when he perceived that a Half-Mermaid had appeared on a submarine reef about 5,000 meters away at some time.
Han Fei’s heart skipped a beat. Here it is! I didn’t guess wrong. The sea monster is targeting me.
Han Fei perceived around to see if there was a Red Demon around. However, this time he didn’t find any Red Demons.
In his perception, only this Half-Mermaid was looking in his direction.
I brought no one.
Han Fei’s eyelids twitched. This mermaid was still 5,000 meters away, but it was already able to transmit a message into his ears?
Such a long sound transmission distance was not uncommon, but such a large perception range was really uncommon.
Han Fei was confident, even peak-level Hanging Fishers’ range of perception wouldn’t be larger than his.
Han Fei responded, Are you waiting for me?
Yes!
The Half-Mermaid seemed unable to speak as fluently as humans. After all, their physiology was different from that of humans, so their voices seemed to come from the chest, echoing.
However, this Half-Mermaid spoke more fluently than those Han Fei had seen before.
Han Fei asked coldly, Why me? What do you want?
The Half-Mermaid replied, You… Have… A demon weapon on you.
Han Fei laughed. Nonsense, I’m a pure-blooded human. How can I have a demon weapon?
The Half-Mermaid said, You do. You have the breath of a demon, as well as a precious demon weapon.
A precious demon weapon?
Han Fei was stunned for a moment. You mean the sea monster’s weapon?
Han Fei suddenly thought of the book that he got from the Big Red Trunk.
At that time, Yang Ruoyun wanted to grab it, but he got the upper hand and won it.
But that thing was really weird. The book seemed to be able to hurt his brain. It could hurt him as long as it was open. So Han Fei didn’t dare to try opening it again.
Although he didn’t know how the mermaid discovered it, Han Fei would not admit it. Where would I get a sea monster’s weapon from? Are you mistaken?
The mermaid had already swum towards Han Fei, and Han Fei immediately backed away. Don’t come over. Just stay there. I can hear you.
The mermaid stopped and replied in the distance, You have… Used it before, so there is… A residual breath of it on you.
Han Fei’s eyes narrowed. He only flipped through the book once and ended up being injured by it. Was it because of that? But why didn’t he notice it at all?
Even Old Bai and the teachers didn’t notice it. Otherwise, they would have told him already.
The Half-Mermaid said with a ferocious look, Exchange.
Exchange?
Han Fei was amused. Do you mean you want to make a deal with me?
Han Fei thought to himself, This is funny! You’re a sea monster, but you still want to trade with me, a human, for this thing. This book must be very precious!
But Han Fei didn’t show any signs on his face. He just said indifferently, Even if I have the so-called sea monster’s weapon, what would you give me in exchange for this?
Spirit Awakening Fluid.
The mermaid bared his teeth and said in the sea, with his long hair dancing with the waves, which made Han Fei feel an illusion that he was communicating with a person.
Han Fei calmed down. Spirit Awakening Fluid, how much have you got?
It replied, 3,000 catties.
Han Fei’s body shook. He certainly knew what 3,000 catties of Spirit Awakening Fluid meant!
The price of a catty of Spirit Awakening Fluid had reached 5,000 high-quality pearls. Besides, the demand exceeded the supply.
As far as he knew, it was not easy to exchange high-quality pearls for Spirit Awakening Fluid. People usually gave out their credits in exchange for it.
5,000 credits for one catty. Now, he could only trade for more than 200 catties with all the credits he had got.
But the mermaid said 3,000 catties! He was damn rich!
Han Fei certainly didn’t want to make the exchange. He hadn’t taken out the book yet and the other party had already bid 3,000 catties for it. If he took it out, the mermaid might offer 10,000 catties.
However, this mermaid was so rich. How could he squeeze all the Spirit Awakening Fluid out of it?
