Little Li chuckled: "Youāre overthinking it! Actually, I kind of hope my brother can make a good impression."
Little Fang was surprised: "No way, you really think this gathering is his matchmaking event?"
Little Li shook her head and smiled wryly: "As for my brother, how should I put it, he likes to chase beauties. The problem is, the beauties arenāt interested in him. But heād rather be single than settle, and now heās over thirty, which is causing our family to worry. I heard he made a little money this New Year, so maybe, hopefully, he can try his luck. Gaming girls are quite simple. "
Little Fang laughed: "Simple my ass! Am I simple? But itās true, Bloodrose Studio is full of beautiful women. At least in terms of looks, theyāre more reliable than any matchmaking agency. Itās all about fate, after all. Who cares about those green tea [conniving] bitches! "
Little Li laughed: "Iāve been completely fooled by you! The girls are actually very decent people! The Bloodrose Leader, Zhou Qing, is a real glamorous and wealthy beauty, going for a beauty superstar team-up route focused on sweet drinks. Thereās no way sheād let green teas ruin the guildās image!"
Little Fang huffed: "Who knows what theyāre like behind the scenes. But hey, if big bro could manage to snag Zhou Qing, hypothetically speaking, even if she were a green tea, it would be worth it!"
Little Li said annoyed: "Not possible! Even talented scions from rich families donāt stand a chance. So letās not make fun of my brother about that."
Little Fang said seriously: "Itās not completely out of the question! A rich second generation once said, āI donāt care if my friends have money; they certainly donāt have as much as I do!ā Similarly, I suspect Zhou Qing might think the same way. She may not care if her boyfriend has money. Rich scions may seem capable, but thatās mainly because they have wealthy and powerful families behind them, which doesnāt count as real capability. If someone without money or connections shows real skill, now that would be actual capability. So big bro isnāt entirely without a chance!"
Little Liās eyebrow twitched: "Do you think my brother is someone who could show real skill among the impoverished and underprivileged?"
Little Fang shook her head: "At least at tomorrow nightās tea party, big bro will be sitting next to the charismatic Mr. Lin. Theyāre the only two men at the tea party, and thereās bound to be a comparison. Big bro doesnāt have to outshine him; as long as he stands out and leaves a good impression on the ladies, it will be enough."
Little Li sighed deeply: "Iām really sorry that you are so worried about my brotherās affairs."
Little Fang laughed heartily: "What can I say? Since the day I entered university and first met you in the dorm, I saw your big bro busy helping out with moving things, and he was quite gracious to me. At that time, I really thought your big brother was a good person. Iāve observed him for three or four years, and I truly believe heās kind, considerate, and genuinely good. Iām really envious that you have such a brother who gives such a sense of security. "
Little Li laughed: "Itās okay, heās already self-appointed as your brother! His second question after calling me is always about how Little Fang is doing. "
Little Fang laughed heartily: "Yeah, having one sister makes him a āpseudo brotherā; having two makes him a ābig brotherā worthy of the title. Just because of that title, at least in the game, he can surely make a name for himself. Alright, let the two of us sisters help big bro, take down Zhou Qing, and thenā"
Little Li asked surprisingly: "And then?"
Little Fang laughed loudly: "Then itās time for some action haha! "
Little Li was exasperated: "Can we get serious here? Alright, alright, itās almost midnight; if you donāt sleep soon, weāll be pandas tomorrow... "
Midnight, a new day begins.
Da Fei, who had just slept for an hour, was awakened by the alarm sound. He quickly looked up and saw a cloud of red on the radar. Here it comes, the third battle is about to begin! Theyāre really making sure I donāt stop gaining experience until I reach level 50, arenāt they? Wahahaha!
Wait a minute! Da Fei suddenly realized something was wrong. The silver moon of the Nether Sea was gone, and the sky was full of dark clouds. The already gloomy Nether Sea was a pitch-black eerie scene, and strange, spectral screams could be heard in the darkness? What is this?
Then came the shout from Catherine on the sea: "Blood Hook Yarosso, the storm is about to come. Your rowing boats canāt withstand the waves, so itās better for you to surrender to our Commander Captain. His God-level Navigation and God-level Navigation Skills will guide you through the challenges!"
Blood Hook coldly responded: "A few sea demons can scare me into surrender? Dream on! I want to see how big a storm these sea demons can stir up! Brothers, gather and tie up the ships!"
A storm? No way!
Just then, Tamilia appeared: "Captain, youāre awake! Miss Catherine says the storm is about to appear! Actually, we should have encountered a sea monster that can summon storms. As you can see now, the pirates are bringing all their ships together, trying to tie them up to withstand the waves! But Catherine mentioned this method can only withstand medium-sized waves. But once the waves exceed expectations, the ships will crush against each other under the huge waves, causing more damage!"
Da Feiās heart skipped a beat! No way, I woke up to some high-level creature that can summon storms! Tying up ships is a method used in typhoon shelters, right? It should handle normal waves.
Da Fei hurriedly asked: "Can we evade the storm by continuing forward to outrun the sea monster?"
Tamilia shook her head: "Itās uncertain, but the pirate ship certainly canāt withstand it, so theyāve stopped advancing to tie up and face it head-on. If we donāt want to abandon them, we can face it with them. Of course, if we leave them as bait to attract the sea monsterās attention, it might safely cover our escape."
No way! Do I need others to cover my escape? Iām a God-level Navigator with inherent Storm Navigation talent and the Divine Artifact, Heart of the Ocean, destined to battle the heavens, the sea, and the gods! The Pirate Hero was rightāhow big a wave can a few sea demons possibly make? If theyāre unafraid, Iām even less afraid!
Da Fei waved his hand grandly: "Stay and face it with them! Use the Jade Dragon, installed with the Divine Artifact, Lightning Rod, as the core!"
Tamilia: "Understood, I will immediately order the entire fleet!"
Just after Da Feiās order was given, the teleportation array on the Flying lit up, and Selvia came by. She didnāt visit after celebrating the last victory, so this must involve something major.
Da Fei eagerly asked: "Selvia, whatās the question?"
Selvia pointed at the swirling dark clouds in the sky solemnly: "Captain, do you remember the storm we encountered in the Nether Sea last time?"
Da Feiās eyebrow jumped: "Of course, I remember!"
Selvia spoke seriously: "That storm was caused by the outpouring of accumulated Power of Misfortune above us, so when the storm formed, we were at its center, the Storm Eye. The same principle applies to these sea monsters. When they surround us and summon the storm, we are at the Storm Eye at the first moment!"
The Storm Eye! Such a familiar and unforgettable memory! Da Fei asked eagerly: "Then what?"
Selvia spoke seriously: "Then, Samael Angel demonstrated how to release a small counter-rotating storm within the storm eye to stop the storm by using small gears to drive large gears. Now, with my God-level Light Magic and the ample mana from the Sea Soul Staff, I want to give it a try!"
Ah, I see! I hereby approve!
Da Fei was overjoyed: "Great, now we have another method to counter the storm. Then prepare yourself, and Iāll send the main force to guard you!"
Selvia excitedly said: "Good, Iām heading back to the ship!" With that, she flashed away and returned to her ship.
Da Fei couldnāt help but laugh out loud! Excellent, letās see how powerful you high-level sea monsters really are! The stronger you are, the more nutritious youāll be for me; I just love a good challenge! Wahahaha!
(Sorry to book friends once again, it was another busy day of obligations. The ashtray is now, at least, the head of a family and is no longer a shut-in from a few years ago; many things just canāt be refused.)(To be continued.
