Chapter 141: The Water God Hunt (1) (2)

Anytng continued with the operation.

The Start Hunting button at the bottom of the screen was flashing white.

[Master, would you like to start the next mission?]

[Yes (Select) / No]

[Ding.]

[Moving on to the next stage!]

[Now Loading.]

[Building the field.]

Splash!

Suddenly, the ship shook violently.

The waves had grown taller.

Its started.

We can do it. Lets all return alive.

Of course.

As the waves slowly pushed the non-aerial ship into the deeper part of the sea,

I touched the space behind the ship.

My hand was gently pushed back. A transparent wall was surrounding the field.

Katiio.

Ill take the helm for now.

Katiio entered the cockpit.

[Water Dragon Ktaart Lv.64]

Kwooooooo!

From afar, the water dragon with red eyes roared.

[Water Dragon Ktaart roars!]

Kwoong!

The sea churned, and the water rose several meters high as if a wall had been erected in the sky.

With towering waves, it started to approach.

[Warning! Warning! Warning!]

[Floor 35.]

[Mission Type Plunder]

[Objective ???]

[Special Objective NPC Priasis Al Ragnas survival]

I quickly scanned the mission window and shouted.

Everyone, to your positions!

Velkist ran to the left side of the deck.

A rapid-fire ballista was installed on the left railing.

I ran to the right.

The same device was there. I grabbed the aiming device and placed my hand on the trigger.

It was already loaded.

Kwooooooo!

[Merman Lv.37] X 42

[Baby Water Dragon Lv.34] X 35

[Grown Water Dragon Lv.39] X 17

Within the waves, countless shadows flickered.

Vroom!

The non-aerial ship half rose from the water.

Hold tight!

Then it began to climb the waves.

I braced my feet on the railing to maintain balance.

Kraaaaa!

I pulled the trigger.

A giant arrow lodged into the torso of a merman.

Avoid them as much as possible. We need to find the statue first!

You dont even have to say it!

The ship slid on the tidal waves.

The angle of the deck steeply tilted.

Jenna fixed her feet in the grooves of the deck.

Pulling the bowstring, an arrow lodged into the forehead of a water dragon.

Dont bother with the mermen. Take down the water dragons first.

That was the plan.

Velkist began firing.

With each shot, gears moved, automatically loading the next arrow.

A large figure leaped from beside the wave.

It opened its mouth. A water cannon. A pattern I had seen several times before.

Katiio quickly turned the steering wheel. The water cannon shot past us.

Eloka is.

Holding the railing tightly, she watched over us.

She was conserving her magic for when she needed to attack.

Thwack!

The ballista tore through both a water dragon and mermen at the same time.

Reload. Fire again. And reload once more. I held the aiming device and continuously pulled the trigger.

Wheres the object?

This mission wouldnt stand without the goddess statue.

While pulling the trigger, I diligently scanned the sea.

Capitalism sailed around the water dragon, climbing against the waves.

A few mermen that clung to the side of the ship fell as the ship changed direction.

Were good so far!

Ping! Ping! Ping! Ping!

I was on the right, Velkist on the left.

Jenna covered any gaps.

The ship crested the wave and descended on the other side.

Boom!

A water cannon grazed over the ship.

Hes such a whiner.

Oppa, over there!

As we descended to the surface, Jenna pointed upwards.

I followed her finger with my gaze. Something was shining at the end of the receding wave.

It seems to be at the top?

Seriously.

Should we turn the ship?

No need for that. Itll come back on its own.

The wave at the edge of the field suddenly began to return in the opposite direction, easily ignoring the flow of water.

It really did.

Katiio, get ready.

I let go of the aiming device.

Arrows were limited. There was no need to waste them in a preliminary skirmish.

The ship again rode the waves upwards.

[Merman Lv.37] X 57

[Baby Water Dragon Lv.34] X 42

[Grown Water Dragon Lv.39] X 25

The number has actually increased.

Despite having dealt with so many.

I rested my hand on the hilt of my sword.

Katiio came out onto the deck.

[Master, 1st Party leader, Han() proposes manual control. Will you accept?]

[Yes (Select) / No]

Anytng had watched us several times.

He knew what needed to be done.

The ship began to slowly slide on the wave.

Be careful.

I will.

Katiio waved his hand.

Magic threads spewed from his fingertips, gently wrapping around my entire body.

A strange sensation of floating enveloped my body.

Just draw its attention and break away. Ill retrieve the goddess statue.

Ill cover you as much as I can.

No need.

I chuckled and leaped over the railing.

Ripples spread from my toes, and my body rose above the water.

Kraaaaa!

Mermen immediately sprang forth.

I lowered my posture and moved my hand.

Swish.

The water split and the mermans neck burst with blood.

Another one. I swung my sword. A water dragon carrying mermen was split in two, spewing blood and entrails.

What are you looking at?! Go the other way!

Ah, got it!

Capitalism began to distance itself.

I dashed across the water.

I just need to be careful of attacks from below.

I leaped high over the waves.

The jaws of a water dragon, filled with serrated teeth, snapped at where I had been.

Landing, I slashed behind me. The dragon was split apart with the waves.

Bang!

With each swing of my sword, water columns erupted, and blood and flesh fluttered in the wind.

Nearby, the corpses of monsters surfaced. They would soon be swallowed by the flow of the waves and sink.

I surged against the waves, accelerating.

A goddess statue in a swimsuit, wearing a round tube, was bobbing on the waves.

Are you kidding me?

A surge of irritation rose, but I suppressed it.

The statue was glowing blue. It was clearly an important object.

I tore through every monster in my path.

Krak, mon, monster.

Crack.

I planted my sword into the forehead of a merman, half torn apart, floundering.

And then I embraced the modest-sized goddess statue.

On vacation, are we?

[This is a placeable object.]

[Insert it at a suitable location.]
