Great Voyage: My Summoned Creatures Can Level Up While Idle

"hiss--!"

The swift lizard was paralyzed and stiffened by the electric current surging from Misha's body, its jaws loosened, and it could no longer bite Misha.

The next instant, Misha's bear paws, imbued with black iron magic, slammed repeatedly onto the lizard's head.

Under the relentless onslaught, the Swift Poison Lizard's head shattered, its health points were reduced to zero, and its massive body collapsed heavily into the swamp.

Having dealt with this troublesome elite monster, Misha raised her head and let out a triumphant roar.

Having gained a large amount of experience points, Misha was enveloped in a white light, and her level increased to 13.

Of course, there were also surprises.

A notification panel popped up in front of Roya's eyes:

Your mutated polar bear has learned a new skill: Thunder Armor!

I've learned a new skill, and it's an advanced and enhanced version of lightning-infused.

As the white light disappeared, Misha's injuries and accumulated toxins were completely healed, and she returned to her peak condition.

Misha activated her new skill, Thunder Armor, and layers of fine electric current surged around her, weaving into a shimmering lightning armor that firmly covered her entire body.

Luo Ya observed carefully and quickly figured out the characteristics of the Thunder Armor.

With Thunder Armor activated, Misha's strength, constitution, speed, and perception attributes are greatly enhanced, and she can also protect herself from the erosion of the swamp's poisonous fog, preventing her from continuously losing health.

However, the drawback of this skill is also obvious. Lightning Armor is a skill that consumes mana continuously, resulting in a huge drain on mana.

Misha had only advanced a hundred meters when her internal magic power became insufficient, and the lightning armor around her body vanished with a bang.

Without the protection of the Thunder Armor, the swamp mist mixed with deadly poison instantly invaded her body, and Misha was once again afflicted with the negative status of continuous poisoning.

The toxicity doubles again after penetrating a thousand meters into the swamp.

In the end, Misha fell to three level 13 ordinary poisonous lizard monsters.

The deeper you go into the swamp, the higher the level of the monsters you encounter, making the dungeon much more difficult.

Roya's consciousness left the instance and returned to reality.

Looking up, the sky was already bright, and a bright red sun was slowly rising from the sea, dyeing the entire sea surface red.

Sophia cooked today. After breakfast, Sophia asked, "Luo Ya, you didn't sleep well last night, do you want to take a nap?"

"No need, it's just one night without sleep, it's nothing to me." Luo Ya waved his hand.

After officially becoming a superhuman, Luo Ya was no longer an ordinary person. He could go three days and three nights without rest, let alone one night.

The Velvet set sail again, continuing its journey toward Gourmet Island.

Luo Ya once again multitasked, steering the ship while checking on Adai's progress in the dungeon.

Suddenly, he heard a clear seabird cry.

A large seagull gently landed on the railing of the ship not far from Roya. It had a small canvas backpack on its back and a black-edged badge with an oak pattern on its chest. Its bright eyes were fixed on Roya.

"Information bird?"

After thinking for a moment, Luo Ya quickly recognized the seagull.

The Intelligence Birds are a rather mysterious intelligence organization on this vast ocean, said to have been created by a group of druids.

Initially, the Intelligence Bird Organization was just an ordinary intelligence organization that tamed various seabirds and beasts to collect and sell maritime intelligence.

With the rise of the newspaper industry, the Intelligence Bird organization expanded its business accordingly, publishing newspapers on various islands and undertaking various bounty tasks, team promotions, and so on.

Many pirate groups and adventure groups would spend money to publish their names in newspapers and make a name for themselves.

Meanwhile, the Intelligence Bird organization grew larger and larger, becoming a leader in the intelligence industry.

Newspapers are priced differently: a single copy of the weekly newspaper for an ordinary island costs one silver coin, while the Kingdom Newspaper, which relates to the policies of the Thousand Islands Kingdom, costs one gold coin.

In addition, anyone can write a note, attach a deposit, and give it to the intelligence birds, who will then run errands, purchase items, or deliver letters on their behalf.

The rare books that Sophia had previously ordered were obtained in this way.

Roya bought a copy of the Island Weekly and the Kingdom Gazette.

Sophia quickly ran over and gently placed a pre-written envelope and a few gold coins into the seagull's backpack.

That letter was an apology she wrote to old Adam, specifically explaining why she left without saying goodbye and trying to appease her grandfather.

The seagull carrying the letter and the reward nodded to the two, then flapped its wings, soared into the sky, and gradually disappeared into the horizon.

Sophia stood there for a long time, gazing blankly in the direction the bird had flown away. Roya couldn't help but whisper to comfort her, "Don't worry, the intelligence bird never makes a mistake. The message will definitely be delivered to Old Adam safely."

"Mm." Sophia nodded gently, the worry in her eyes fading slightly.

……

More than ten nautical miles off the side and rear of the Velvet, a three-masted sailing ship flying a black flag was speeding through the waves.

The jet-black flag fluttered in the wind; it was the most feared symbol on the high seas—the pirate flag.

This is a pirate ship!

On the mast lookout tower, Buffalo Bill casually scanned the entire sea with his nautical telescope in hand.

Suddenly, a seagull carrying a backpack appeared in the field of view of the telescope, spreading its wings and taking flight.

Having been at sea for seven years, Buffalo Bill was very experienced. He recognized the seagull at a glance as the messenger seagull of the Intelligence Bird organization.

Where intelligence birds are spotted, there are bound to be ships operating nearby.

Buffalo Bill became serious, staring intently at the direction the seagulls were taking off, and finally spotted a two-masted sailing ship with a swan figurehead.

"Captain! A small two-masted sailing ship spotted at 11 o'clock, 12 nautical miles away!"

Buffalo Bill shouted loudly, his voice piercing the howling sea wind and clearly echoing throughout the entire deck.

The pirates, who were each doing their own work, suddenly stopped what they were doing, and the entire deck fell silent. A greedy glint appeared in everyone's eyes.

"Haha! Finally, I can eat meat!"

In the middle of the deck, a burly man with a muscular build grinned, missing a front tooth, and spoke with a slightly slurred and rough tone.

He is none other than Black Axe Black, captain of the Black Axe Pirate Crew, a true veteran of the Black Iron Warriors, infamous for his ferocity.

The pirates held their breath and waited quietly for instructions.

"Men, target the two-masted sailing ship at eleven o'clock! Full speed ahead!"

"Yes, Captain!"

All the pirates cheered and quickly began preparations.

Some adjusted their course, some loaded their guns, and some took out their scimitars and muskets. Their faces were filled with bloodlust and greed, eagerly anticipating the spoils of war that were about to be theirs.

On the other side, on the deck of the Velvet.

At first, Sophia did not notice the unusual movement behind her. It was not until the three-masted pirate ship approached within seven nautical miles that she finally caught sight of the rapidly approaching dark figure behind her, thanks to her extraordinary senses.

"Oh no! Roya, a pirate ship is chasing us!" Sophia's face tightened, and she hurriedly reminded them.

"Can we shake them off?" Roya, who was at the helm, asked loudly.

"We can't shake them off!" Sophia bit her lower lip, her tone grave. "Those are three-masted ocean-going sailing ships; their speed far surpasses ours!"

The Velvet's top speed was only 8 knots, while the pirate ships behind it had a speed of around 12 to 14 knots. The difference between the two was huge, and it was only a matter of time before it was overtaken.
