Chapter 774 - The Sea’s SS Rank Monster Awakens

The Thailand and Taiwan national team has scoured the sea area for monsters as they are more adept at combat in that type of habitat. Especially the Taiwan national team as their two ace members are real aquatic combatants.

Renyu with her aquatic spells and Nishui with his quick attacks when inside a watery domain is not something that any person could easily deal with. Even the monsters that inhabit the area of the east side of the map are easily dealt.

The Taiwanese national team even dealt with one of the S rank monsters present in the sea area of the map called the Scaled Armored Octopus. It might have eight tentacles, but its main attacking type is that of mind blasts. The Scaled Armored Octopus is basically an armored mage that cannot move as much but can deal long range psychic spells.

If the Renyu is not a merfolk, then she might have not carried her team to victory. The Scaled Armored octopus is one of the most prominent monsters in the merfolk-controlled ocean and seas in Pandemonium. She already knew that there is a soft part of the armor just behind its head.

She ordered Nishui to dispatch the Scaled Armored Octopus as she used her spells to divert its attention. In the end, she had to use one of her best spells called Ocean's Trident that dealt high damage to the target and even pierces their armor.

A huge spout of water exploded in the area of the battle as the Scaled Armored Octopus used a large telekinetic wave before it got killed. Nishui suffered large damage and two of her team members were killed but they got the points needed for killing an S rank monster.

Because of the explosion, the sea receded a bit and they discovered some sort of ruins deep in the water. Renyu and Nishui had to investigate while their remaining member waited for the others to revive and also serve as a lookout. If the other teams get near, then they would utilize the item called Sea Calling Shell to give information to Renyu.

The Thailand national team also encountered one of the S rank monsters called the Spear Head Squid. It is the exact opposite of the Scaled Armored Octopus as it is a monster that relies heavily on its speed and sharp fin to launch itself deep in the ocean towards the surface.

It is reminiscent to a real spear when launched due to its body shape and is an also a great menace when it comes to sailors or any other sea travelers. Although they are only located in the depths of the seas and oceans, they usually come up when there is not enough food.

Despite the Spear Head Squid being a monster that has high speed and attack, its defensive capabilities are mediocre or average at best. All Xinthri needed to do is combo the Spear Head Squid when it is in the air. He literally did not make the Spear Head Squid go back down to the seas.

Ngu also supported him with this as she would launch her spear to keep the Spear Head Squid airborne. The S rank monster did not stand a chance as it became like a toy ball that continuously got flung mid-air. It died without much resistance as it cannot survive without water for too long.

When Xinthri landed the killing blow on the Spear Head Squid, a beam of light suddenly erupted in an area farther out into the sea. He knew that the area where the beam of light is occurring is actually where the Taiwan national team were fighting. He did not know what they did, or it might just be an effect of a skill, but he learned that is actually from the SS rank monster.

[The Overlord of the Sea has awakened from its deep sleep inside of the depths of the sea.]

The beam of light suddenly started to form a large figure that even dwarfed the island that Xinthri's group is currently standing on. The Overlord of the Sea is none other than one of the strongest monsters that the deep could produce. A monster that even the merfolk evades when they encounter as it will take significant sacrifice to just kill one.

The Overlord of the Sea is none other than the monster of the deep called King Whale. A monster that is said to be one of the biggest and strongest in the oceans and seas of Pandemonium. A monster that is large enough to devour coastal cities with its mouth.

The King Whale dropped to the sea and a large tsunami is created with just its own weight slamming to the surface of water. The players in the islands had to find shelter in order to escape from the effect of the tsunami that is created.

Meanwhile, Renyu and Nishui escaped the ruins that they came from. They thought that the item emanating powerful energy is a weapon, but it was actually an item that was sealed by the sage that also sealed the Blood Hungry Crimson Tiger. When Nishui touched the seal, it immediately shattered as the King Whale used some of Nishui's energy to free itself from the seal.

Nishui almost died but Renyu came to save him, but they already released the King Whale. Renyu knew that even with five of them, they have a low chance of winning because the King Whale has high health that even put tank type monsters to shame.

The good thing is that the King Whale does not have much attack capabilities. Although it has mastery over the water element. It will not be easily harmed by spells that use the water element. The Taiwan national team needs to compromise with the only team that could help them kill the King Whale as the other sea monsters feared it and has gone into hiding.. The King Whale is one of the glutinous monsters in the ocean depths.
