Lords of Hegemony: Conquer from the Mermaids

Chapter 12 Black Iron Treasure Chest
To deal with the mere white-browed crab, Cangyue only used a little hypnotic singing and did not use his full strength.

There may be many more battles to come, and there is no need to put so much effort into dealing with this group of little crabs.

But even with a slight move, he hypnotized more than fifty white-browed crabs, causing them to kill each other. In an instant, they fought to the death, and the entire colony was on the verge of extinction.

The battle was nearing its end, and the controlled white-browed crabs were almost wiped out. These white-browed crabs, which could be easily charmed by Cangyue, were relatively weak in strength and willpower among the entire crab community. Under the joint attack of several huge crabs that were two meters long, many of them were torn to pieces in a few strokes.

However, under the fearless attack of the Charming Crab, most of them had their shells broken, their limbs mutilated, and their fighting power was almost gone.

Cangyue casually condensed a few water balls and directly destroyed the crab colony.

After killing all the crabs, Cangyue clapped her hands gracefully, swam back to Meng Zheng, and came to him in a sweet and innocent manner, her eyes curved as she said, "Chief, I have killed all the big crabs!"

During these two days of getting along, Meng Zheng also discovered that the beautiful silver-tailed mermaid in front of him had a very simple personality and liked to show off in front of him and get him to praise her.

So every time Meng Zheng would flatter her and satisfy her little thoughts, and this time was no exception: "Well done, Cangyue, you are so relaxed and carefree. Keep up the good work in the next battle and eliminate more enemies together."

Cangyue was very pleased with Meng Zheng's praise and said with a happy smile: "Don't worry, clan leader, Cangyue will fight hard against the monsters next time and wipe them all out!"

"Let's go and see if there are any good things in the monster community here!" Looking at the crab corpses all over the ground, Meng Zheng asked the four gray-tailed mermaids to go and see if there was anything.

In theory, there are certain treasures in each monster group. This is set by the system and given to lords as rewards for destroying monsters.

These treasures are generally related to monster groups. They can either promote their growth or are things on the monster groups. What they are depends on the monster groups you kill.

The four gray-tailed mermaids scattered out and searched everywhere in the rocky forest, while the five patrolling sea yakshas surrounded the entire monster group to guard against the risk of sudden attacks.

This was the first group of monsters that Meng Zheng had wiped out. Naturally, he would not let go of any corner and must search thoroughly.

You know what, I really found a lot of things.

First of all, there are a lot of aquatic mushrooms in the middle of the rocky forest. These should be food for the crabs. They have a certain amount of spiritual energy, and long-term consumption can increase a small amount of spiritual energy.

Meng Zheng swam over and counted them. There were almost a hundred mushrooms growing out of the cracks in the rocks. Their round caps looked extremely plump.

It seems that the territory has added another type of food.

Then, a male merman found Meng Zheng and said that he had found a black treasure chest.

This couldn't help but attract Meng Zheng's attention again: "Come on, take me to see it!"

In the eternal world, there are a large number of treasure chests scattered in different places. Some may be placed on the roadside waiting for you to open them, while others require you to defeat the guardians and go through some twists and turns before you can get anything.

These treasure chests are divided into eight levels: black iron, bronze, silver, gold, diamond, legendary, epic, and mythical.

It seems that the reward for destroying this group of white-browed crabs is this treasure chest.

Meng Zheng quickly asked the male mermaid to take him there. After a while, he saw a black box with some twinkling stars and the frame was sealed with iron bars.

【Unlocked Treasure Chest】

[Level]: Black Iron
Introduction: An unlocked treasure chest. If you are lucky, you can get some good things in it.

The simple introduction doesn't tell what's inside.

However, according to the introduction, treasure chests are divided into locked and unlocked ones. So if you encounter a locked treasure chest in the future, you can only stare at it without a key.

Without thinking too much, Meng Zheng opened the box directly.

"Ding~ Congratulations on opening the black iron treasure chest and obtaining resources: Water Spirit Stone*20, Three-pronged Fork*10" Water Spirit Stone: A stone containing water elements, which can improve the personal cultivation progress of water practitioners, or provide energy for water-based formations.

Three-pronged fork: Made mainly of coral and supplemented with water, rock and iron, it is extremely sharp and suitable for underwater combat.

nice one!
The Canghai tribe's water formation lacked a large number of spirit stones, and Meng Zheng was originally worried about where to get them!
Now it's out of the treasure chest.

Although the spring space can produce an indefinite amount of water spirit stones or sea spirit stones, Meng Zheng is not sure of the specific number. It is a great thing to be able to obtain a batch now.

Although it’s only twenty yuan, it’s a good start!
He picked up a piece of water spirit stone and played with it carefully in his hand. It was about the length of a finger and half the thickness of a finger, and the whole body was glowing with a lustrous light blue luster.

Holding it in the palm of his hand, Meng Zheng could clearly feel the pure water spirit inside.

As long as you attract the magic power, you can directly absorb it into your body and transform it into cultivation.

It really is worthy of being called Water Spirit Stone, it is indeed a good thing.

He took out another three-pronged fork, two meters long and black and gray in color. Holding the handle, one could clearly feel that it was made of coral.

The tips of the three prongs of the trident are very sharp, flashing with cold light, and look very powerful.

As a water lord, Meng Zheng's idea of ​​his future weapon was naturally the trident of Aquaman from the TV series he had seen in his previous life. Now he had obtained a three-pronged fork, which was not a halberd, but had a similar shape.

Meng Zheng brandished the three-pronged fork, slashing and stabbing continuously in the water, feeling very majestic.

As she danced to her heart's content, she couldn't help but ask Cangyue, "How about it, am I handsome, Chief?"

Cangyue and the other two had been following Meng Zheng the entire time and couldn't help but laugh, "Chief, that's a beautiful display, but the trident is a stabbing weapon, it can't be used to cut people!"

Hearing Cangyue's words, Meng Zheng couldn't help but pause and carefully observe the weapon in his hand.

Only then did I realize that this three-pronged fork only had three sharp points, as sharp as a needle tip.

But the sides are not sharp, and if you swing it, you will probably cut off the three forks.

Realizing this, Meng Zheng blushed a little, but didn't say much. He put away the three-pronged fork in his hand and waited to have time to practice slowly in the future.

"Go and gather all the tribesmen. We have to continue our journey and cannot delay here for too long." Let Cangyue call back the remaining two gray-tailed mermaids and continue to set off towards the location of the Hailingzhu.

There was no trouble along the way, and Meng Zheng deliberately avoided the monster groups on land. Today's destination was mainly to escort Cang Jing and four other gray-tailed mermaids, and he couldn't spend too much time on the road.

When they arrived fifty miles away from the Hailing Bamboo Forest, suddenly, a group of strange fish covered with thorns, scales and armor suddenly rushed towards Meng Zheng and others.

This group of strange fish were very fast. Meng Zheng had just seen them when they swam in front of Meng Zheng and others.

Meng Zheng did not react, but Cangyue and Cangjing were prepared. Cangyue pushed the spiritual power in his hand and created a ten-meter-high wave out of thin air in the water, which rushed towards the school of strange fish. While preventing the strange fish from approaching, it also rushed these guys into pieces and made them dizzy.

Cang Jing began to chant a spell, and a light gate appeared in front of her. Two mermaids wearing heavy armor and holding spears and shields walked out of the light gate.

These two mermaids are very tall. Meng Zheng, a black-tailed mermaid, is more than three meters tall including his tail, but the two mermaids in front of him are more than ten meters tall and look like giants.

The sturdy body was full of explosive power. With a shake of its tail, it instantly caught up with the strange fish that had already been washed away.

With a fierce blow of the shield, several strange fish were blown to pieces. The shredded fish meat and bright blood dyed the surrounding water red.

With a stabbing of the more than ten-meter-long spear, two or three strange fishes that were two or three meters long were strung together like candied haws. With a burst of magic power, the bodies of the strange fishes were torn into pieces.
