Chapter 976

On the map, two of the twelve white skulls had turned into black 'X's.

Gu Ding closed the map and could not help but grin. "Biggie isn't slow either!"

"Biggie's strength is not inferior to yours. I'm not surprised that he can kill a Saint level demon beast." Melissa smiled at Gu Ding. "What I want to know is, other than the two of you, who else in your crew has the strength to kill a Saint."

"It's hard to say. Neptune's combat effectiveness is already at Saint level. Phaser, Béka, Huck, and Elsa are all at the peak of the Three Star Holy Disciple realm, only one step away from becoming a Holy Disciple. If they go all out, they should be able to fight a Holy Disciple demon beast. " Gu Ding's lips curled up when he heard the question. However, he was not sure of the answer to the question.

"You should have an answer to your question in the next few days," Robert suddenly said.

"That's true. Based on Phaser and the others' tempers, after seeing Biggie and I kill Saint-level demonic beasts, they'll definitely be upset if they don't challenge the Saint-level demonic beasts." Gu Ding nodded with a smile. He knew the members of his pirate crew very well.

"However, it's not so easy to deal with demons and beasts that have reached the Holy Disciple level. Even if they are all Saint level, there is a big difference in combat effectiveness. Especially demons, they are much stronger than the demon beasts. If it's just an ultra beast like the one you encountered before, Phaser and the others might have a chance of winning. If it's a demon, their chances of winning are too low. "Melissa expressed her concern.

"Is there a big difference between demons and exotic beasts?" Gu Ding asked, puzzled.

"The difference is huge!" Melissa nodded seriously. "Exotic beasts are like humans. They are all flesh and blood. Most of them are good at close combat and have strong physical defense. Demons, on the other hand, are much stranger. Demons are dark life forms from the Devil Plane or Purgatory Plane. There are many kinds of them, and they have all kinds of attack methods and talents. Moreover, their intelligence is not lower than humans. They are very difficult to deal with. In actual combat, a fiendish demon of the same combat strength is comparable to three or more exotic beasts of the same level working together. "

"If that's the case, if Phaser and the others were to encounter a Saint-level demon, their chances of winning would be very slim?!" Gu Ding frowned slightly.

"It's not that the odds are small, they will be killed …." Melissa shook her head: "The demons are extremely bloodthirsty, especially the flesh and blood of experts. Once Phaser and the rest are defeated, they will be devoured cleanly by the demons, not even their bones will be left."

"That's why we need to get rid of more holy demons as soon as possible to reduce the chances of Phaser and the others encountering them," Robert suggested.

"That is also a good idea." Melissa who was at the side nodded after listening to him.

"Since that's the case, Melissa, let's split up. Help us plan a new route. We will rush to the nearest three red zones as fast as possible! "

"But they might not choose the three red regions that we arrived at." Melissa felt that it was useless.

"I know, but we can only rely on luck now!" Gu Ding said helplessly.

"I understand. After all, there are four of them (Neptune's Saint-level combat strength does not count). There are still ten red zones left. If we occupy three red zones, the chances of encountering them are not low. "Melissa immediately understood what Gu Ding meant.

After understanding Gu Ding's plan, Melissa began to plan a new route. She used her finger to draw out the detailed route on the map.

While Gu Ding was still memorizing the route, Robert had already handed him a metal piece the size of a fingernail.

"I've already recorded the route for the three of us in here. Once you input the God Source, it will automatically project a projection. This thing will also record your current location."

Gu Ding took the metal piece, and after playing with it for a while, he was satisfied and kept it in the Inventory.

"Robert, you're the slowest. You'll take the first route. Gu Ding, you'll take the second route. I'll take the third route. "Melissa quickly arranged the route.

Gu Ding and Robert had no objections, and the three of them quickly went their separate ways according to the route.

On the second day after the three of them had planned their route, Neptune was the third to arrive at the red zone. He had purposely chosen a red zone that was slightly further away because he knew that Gu Ding and Biggie would definitely choose the two points that were closer to them. Moreover, he also knew that Phaser and the others would most likely try to challenge the Saint-level demon ultra beasts, so he avoided them.

Because of that, he arrived at the red zone a day later than Biggie.

As soon as he stepped into the red zone, Neptune felt a strange sense of surveillance. The feeling of surveillance did not come from one direction, but from all directions.

This feeling made him feel very strange.

"This strange feeling of being watched, and the cold killing intent brought about by this feeling of being watched. The opponent this time should be a Fiendish Demon." Neptune quickly made a judgment. Exotic beasts usually appeared directly and collided head-on.

"It's still hard to tell what type of demon it is, what it's good at, and what its weaknesses are …" Before the battle began, Neptune had already started all kinds of analysis before the battle began.

In the void, a black light shot out of nowhere and headed straight for Neptune.

Just as Neptune was about to make a move, a second black light shot out from another direction.

Then, a third, a fourth, a fifth …

Hundreds of black lights with the power to tear through space poured toward Neptune like a torrential rain.

Each black light appeared at a different time, distance, and angle, making it impossible to dodge.

In that instant, the entire space where the Ocean Emperor was located was like a piece of white paper that had been cut by a knife. It was torn beyond recognition.

Neptune's lips curled up slightly when he saw this. He moved his feet slightly, and with a slight sidestep, he dodged the first black light. Then, he bent his body slightly and dodged the second black light. Then, he took a step forward and dodged the third black light. Then, he tilted his head and dodged the fourth black light …

Amidst the storm-like attacks, Neptune's lips curled up. His movements were light and concise, as if he could do it easily. But it was this series of movements that completely dodged the storm-like attacks. Not even the hem of his clothes was touched.

The attack happened in an instant, and the dodging also happened in an instant.

When the cloud of dust caused by the explosion of the black light gradually dissipated, a thin and small figure walked out from within. It was the Sea Emperor. Even his clothes were spotless. Obviously, the terrifying attack just now did not affect him at all.

"Come out. If this is all you can do to hide in the dark, it will be useless against me even if you use it ten thousand times." Neptune's voice spread in all directions.

"What a cunning human. He actually disguised himself as a child. I almost misjudged him." A huge black shadow slowly revealed itself from the void …
