Chapter 1924: Chapter 1922: Heading to the Dead Sea

Trapped within the forbidden technique, Han Dong maintains his sword-wielding stance, his arm steady despite the constant pressure from the Dead Sea’s seal.

At this moment.

Something starts to stir within Han Dong’s body.

Origin Tentacles exuding thick Grey aura sprout from the area of his back and the rear of his head.

The ‘wing pattern’ branded on the surface of his back skin emits a bluish glow symbolizing the ocean.

“Deep Imitation”

While studying the structure, the devoured flesh of Boss K comes into play.

The 100% mimicking ability from the Faceless Myth, augmented by the Book of Dead Spirit’s body modification,

perfectly simulates a pair of Bat Wings, symbolizing the identity of the Enchanted, even more closely resembling Boss K’s wings than other Enchanted.

Swish!

With wings that perfectly fit his body ratio expanding,

Hyde’s Sphere of imprisonment built through forbidden technique bursts open forcefully, Black Water spraying everywhere… Over fifty Black Water nails used for sealing shoot outward, quickly digested by Boss K’s body cavity.

Han Dong closes his eyes, savoring the special sensation brought by these wings, “Wow! This feels so comfortable… These wings allow me to adapt to various sea environments, including the so-called Dead Sea.”

Hyde, pointed at by the sword, is completely astonished by Han Dong’s posture.

To be precise, he is stunned by these wings.

The perfection, containing Grey attributes… equates to the fusion of two supreme traits, managing to break the strongest forbidden technique he cast open.

What kind of power is this?

Of course,

what’s most terrifying is the “Truth Demon Sword” hovering before him.

Under the gaze of the Eye of the sword, Hyde doesn’t dare make any moves… he feels the sword’s awareness, seeming to suggest that the slightest movement will leave his head on the floor.

No memory exists of Han Dong using this magic sword in Hyde’s mind, so he curiously asks, “Is this sword the final reward from that Ladybug Game?”

“Exactly.”

Han Dong doesn’t intend to trouble Hyde, and with a flick of his hand.

The magic sword is absorbed into the black whirlpool at the palm, completing its Return to Sheath.

“Magnificent!”

At this moment, applause comes from Boss K at the side.

Clearly satisfied with their duel,

there is no ire or dissatisfaction with Hyde’s defeat; surely, such an outcome was foreseen from the beginning.

“The wings you mimic are remarkably lifelike, sharing a 1% similarity with mine, higher purity than many Enchanted.”

Han Dong sheepishly scratches his head, as mimicking in front of Boss K is overt disrespect.

“Sorry to make a fool of myself~ The forbidden technique cast by Hyde was really tough to break free from.

While pondering how to dispel the Dead Sea’s technique, my body instinctively adapts to mimic Boss K’s wing structure; indeed, such wings can conquer any ocean-related substances.”

“To automatically filter out the optimal solution? Your affinity with the Grey is indeed high.”

Boss K slowly turns his gaze toward Hyde, who immediately kneels upon sensing the overlord’s stare.

“To completely assimilate and harness the ‘Dead Sea’ attributes through a duel, very impressive… after brief recovery, proceed directly to the Dead Sea; embark on your final journey to kingship.”

“Yes.”

Boss K gently raises his hand.

A special bubble forms around Hyde’s body, carrying him back to Laleye’s Main Temple.

Before departing, Hyde sincerely thanks Han Dong… in his heart, he even considers Han Dong his ‘good friend’, second only to Pope.

As soon as Hyde leaves ~ Gurgle Gurgle!

A familiar sensation surfaces from the back; a series of slick, soft Octopus Tentacles once again envelop Han Dong’s head.

Boss K is already behind him.

Not sure if it’s some kind of quirk, this is the second time the facial tentacles cover Han Dong’s head.

Lips beneath the tentacles brush against the rear of his head.

The picture seems quite odd.

“Nicholas, you didn’t exert all your strength during the duel, did you?”

“Speaking of dueling, being forced to wield the magic sword was already ‘all out’… yet, in a battle for life, I indeed did not utilize full power.

Hyde is really strong.”

“Strong, but only within the Deep Sea realm.

Your [Strong] has escalated to the world, even higher dimensions… truly exceptional; now you should be capable of battling the [King].

I’m eager to see your performance in the upcoming runaway game… looking forward to joining forces in the same high dimension.”

“You’re overestimating me, Boss K, better focus on becoming a king first.”

“As agreed, once the little octopus in you hatches, you can embark on the journey to [Dreamlands]… then I’ll provide some guidance to save considerable time.”

“Thank you, Boss K.”

“What’s your next move? Want to roam around [My Dreamland], or explore Laleye, experience underwater life?”

“Uh… if you don’t mind, Boss K, could I make a trip to the [Dead Sea]?”

This proposal halts the tentacles moving on Han Dong’s cheek; seems Boss K anticipated something.

“The ‘gap’ in you, requires the Dead Sea to fill, doesn’t it?”

“Yes, after hearing Hyde’s description, I might gain insight from it, getting closer to kingship.”

“Perfect, you can go with Hyde.”

“No need, Hyde should be just one step away from completion… my presence might affect him.

Let me venture alone; won’t push myself, will leave early if unable to submerge or if Danger appears.”

“Alright.”

The decision was made during the duel by Han Dong.

Currently, only one mythical puzzle piece remains incomplete… any opportunity related to death won’t be missed, especially one concerning deep sea origins, filled with Death’s essence.

As Han Dong is about to depart, he boldly proposes a condition.

“Oh! Boss K, one small request.

May I borrow Mr. Starfish who handles my Dream Time Card? My manor coincidentally lacks a ‘sharp-eyed’ deep sea personnel.”

Boss K blinks, “Done.”

“Thank you, Boss K.”

Upon returning to Laleye, Han Dong immediately throws Mr. Starfish into [Prison World], letting Togu give him a good briefing.

Since no inmates are present yet, there’s no duty, just indulging daily.

Having no intention to rest, Han Dong sets off for the Dead Sea’s entrance, not far from Laleye.

A spiral-structured seabed cave meets his gaze, Black Water continuously seeping out, with no deep-sea life active nearby.

As Han Dong nears the entrance, the left arm sends a signal.

Mummy bandages symbolizing Death emerge automatically, parts of the skin forming into a sandy texture, causing a resonance within his body’s death origin.

“Indeed, my instincts were right… the place is perfect!”

Mad Laugh hangs on his face, accompanied by a constant deep laughter.

This Laughter is not fatal, but exerts a frightening mental influence, sparing Han Dong much trouble.

No intention of slowly and cautiously exploring further.

Spreads his arms,

Black Sand flows over the entire body,

Bandages grow between his skin,

embracing Death as the core attribute, transforming into the figure of an “Immortal Pharaoh”, leaping into the Dead Sea.

Mad Laugh drives away ancient Deep-sea Divers within the Dead Sea, moving rapidly towards the deepest part.
