Endless Ocean: Escape Starting from a Canoe

Chapter 213 One Slash to Cleave! Obtain the Lamp of Wishes!

Suddenly, Shi Ming felt a familiar sensation arise spontaneously.

A misty vapor spread through the air, seemingly forming a dreamlike illusion. This vapor and illusion were very subtle, nourishing everything silently. It appeared to be just ordinary fog, but the danger within it could not escape Shi Ming's perception.

A-level skill, Mirage Realm.

"Ok?"

"It can't be such a coincidence!"

"Is it that Art, the one who was commissioned by the lighthouse to hunt down ordinary drifting ships, and who disappeared into thin air just when he was about to kill one last time?"

His eyes narrowed.

The mirage began to thicken, like the fog that normally rises at sea, attempting to gradually seep into the cabins of the Great Transport ship.

"interesting."

There is a road to heaven but you don't take it.
Hell has no gates, yet you barge in.

"Captain, that drifting ship is slowly approaching, already within 2 nautical miles. Is it trying to make a deal, or does it have other intentions? Should we drive it away or try to contact it?"

Shidun kept an eye on the other party's movements.

"No need, he's an old acquaintance, he's already started testing the waters."

The A-rank skill, Mirage Realm, is extremely well-concealed and can deceive even most A-rank Awakened individuals.

"Captain, how about I take charge this time?"

"No need."

Although Shi Dun had been bathed in the blood of the A-level sea beast, the White Dragon Whale, and acquired the A-level skill Whale Burst, Shi Ming knew that the "prince" possessed a rare item ranked extremely high, called the "Wish Lamp."

You can make three wishes with the Wishing Lamp.

When Shi Ming first arrived at the Yellow Sand Sea, Prince Na'at used his skills to create a mirage on the sea as bait to lure drifting ships to him and attempt to hunt and destroy them in order to obtain navigation crystals. When Shi Ming saw through his plan, just as he was about to be killed, he used the power of the Wish Lamp to magically disappear before his eyes with a golden ship.

When dealing with someone who has a trump card, you can't give them time to use it.

It must be a fatal blow.

Otherwise, it's a small matter if the person runs away, but if the treasure runs away, then it would be a huge loss.

He used his mental power to lock onto the approaching ship.

Two nautical miles, one nautical mile, half a nautical mile.

Nearly.

Shi Ming raised an eyebrow and leaped directly out of the cabin.

The sun-shooting arrow, accompanied by a whooshing sound as it cut through the air, flew wildly and arrogantly. Shi Ming's right hand swept across his left arm, and suddenly a long sword as bright as frost and snow was drawn from his body. With a whooshing sound, it slashed at the enemy ship that was now almost within reach.

The Third Law: Great Cold!
Click!

Where the blade flashed, the air seemed to freeze.

The bronze-level drifting ship was directly fixed in the seawater, and then it suddenly split open. Prince Art, an A-level awakener, was just thinking about how to plunder when he saw a clear longsword that could freeze his mind right in front of him. He realized that something was wrong and took out his wishing lamp, but he didn't even have time to make a wish!

Then I saw that my vision and mind were completely blank.

Extremely pale.

Art's body and mind froze together, becoming eternal in an instant.

The wishing lamp in his hand snapped shut and then fell to the ground with a dull thud, along with his body.

The Great Cold arrives, and the animals are sheathed.

Prince Art, like a tiger tally, split open.

If you stand by the river long enough, you're bound to get your shoes wet. Last time, At escaped because of the Wish Lamp, but this time, he didn't even get a chance to make a wish.

Shi Ming retrieved the dilapidated "Wish Lamp," which resembled an ashtray, from Art's hands.

[The lamp of wishes, now polluted.]

[Level 9] [A wishing star that fell from the sky transformed into a wondrous power and merged into an oil lamp, forming this Wish Lamp, ranked 41st on the list of rare artifacts. It could grant its holder three wishes. Unfortunately, in less than a century, the worldly desires of mortals completely corrupted the pure power of wishes. Now, it grants wishes in a very distorted way and demands compensation under the pretext of equivalent exchange.]

Upgrade Required: 300 grams of Purification Essence.

He won't use items that have side effects.

Unless absolutely necessary.

Looking at the contrast between its previous arrogance and its current dilapidated state, the "help" of the wishing lamp is probably indispensable.

Although the drifting ship was broken in two, it did not sink. Instead, it was dragged along by the ice formed by the flashing blades, firmly embedded in the sea. The crew of the Dayun had already boarded the ship and began to search for spoils. This prince, entrusted by the lighthouse, became the Black Glove. Over the years, he had set up various traps, hunting down and damaging dozens of low-class drifting ships. I wonder if he ever thought he would end up like this.

The fake map of the Scorpion King Pyramid was one of the traps he set.

However, Shi Ming possessed a creative mind and saw the error, thus completing the true map.

"Captain, we've found it."

Lin Hai carried a box to the deck, which was half overturned at a 25-degree angle.

Open the box.

Approximately 30 light blue and aquamarine crystals were placed inside, and later, in the prince's luxurious room, a treasured azure "Heart of the Voyager" was found! This is an energy core that only the Golden Drifter Ship possesses, and it is also one of the important materials for upgrading the General-class Drifter Ship.

"It's like getting exactly what you need."

……

……

……

Captain's cabin.

Shi Ming looked at the wishing lamp placed on the table.

"The Eyes of the Mortal World, to Gather Intelligence."

The upgrade information was relatively brief. The intelligence obtained proactively from the Eye of the Mortal World might be more detailed, allowing Shi Ming to gain a deeper understanding of the lamp's usage.

[Beep~ Beep~]

[Intelligence being compiled...]

[Searching. Confirming detailed coordinates... Search successful, intelligence summary in progress... Intelligence generated.]

[The Lamp of Wishes.]

The wishing star, wandering the night sky, merged into an ordinary oil lamp. Originally, it could use its wondrous star spirit power to help humans fulfill their wishes. However, over the centuries, human desires have become monotonous, and the starlight has inevitably been tainted with the colors of desire, greed, killing, curiosity, and hatred.

[Ability: Making a Wish]

[Light the lamp, rub the lamp body, and say, "Pure star spirit from the depths of the starry sky, my wish is:..." to make your wish.]

[Note 1: Making a wish upon a polluted wishing lamp will 100% result in a highly distorted outcome, for which you will pay the price of an "equivalent exchange."]

[Note 2: Even after purification, the outcome may still be distorted if the wish is extremely absurd.]

[Note 3: Protoss was once a species, but is now merely a component of Wraiths.]

[Note 4: In past wish data keywords, wealth, women/men, power, immortality, more wishes, and growing longer appeared very frequently. Most of these wishes were fulfilled in very distorted ways, especially "more wishes," "growing longer," and "immortality." It is recommended that you do not try these.]

[Note 5: The Wishing Lamp is not omnipotent. Among the 1886 recorded wishes, there was one wish that, no matter how it was twisted, could not be fulfilled.]

……

There are quite a few notes here. Is there only one case where the wish was not fulfilled?

A 99.95% achievement rate is already very high.

You can think about what you want to wish for first. When you get news about the purification essence, you can purify and upgrade this wish lamp. At that time, you can make a wish without any side effects. No, the Eye of the Mortal World also has a note: even if you get purified, you can't make very outrageous or absurd wishes.

The degree of this requires one to figure out and grasp it for oneself.

After all, it is only ranked 41st among the rare items, not 1st.
