Runeland: I really know a little bit about everything

Most of these ships come from Bilgewater Harbor, and they also go out to hunt those giant sea beasts.

Zuo Chi did not hesitate any longer. He paddled the boat and headed forward.

However, Zuo Chi did not notice that when he was rowing his boat on the sea off Bilgewater, an extremely huge shadow appeared below him!

Zuo Chi seemed to have forgotten that in some places, one has to pay taxes when going out to sea!

Chapter 23 If you don’t pay the tithe, the sea will boil and the mountains will shake!

On the sea off the coast of Bilgewater, the surging waves splashed dark green waves into the air.

The sky was gradually getting dark, and all the ships that were originally coming and going on the sea disappeared at this time!

This also made Zuo Chi very confused. Logically speaking, the ships from the Bilgewater Islands would go out to sea day or night.

Why is he the only one on the open sea today?

Zuo Chi took a small boat and approached the southern islands of Bilgewater little by little.

It was also at this time that a light blue light curtain slowly emerged in front of Zuo Chi!

[The host helped Taliyah realize her dream successfully! Dream fulfillment level: A! ]

【Please choose one of the following four rewards! 】

Looking at the two lines of words in front of him, Zuo Chi couldn't help but get a little excited.

Looking quickly forward, four boxes appeared in front of Zuo Chi!

[Magic Power Reserve: After learning, you can increase the recovery speed of magic power in your body. 】

[Rock Manipulation: Gain the ability to manipulate rocks! The degree of manipulation depends on personal magic power and qualifications. ]

[Low-level swordsmanship: Low-level swordsmanship from the Gale Sword School! ]

[Sandstorm warning: can instinctively warn of natural disasters such as sandstorms! ]

Zuo Chi looked at the four abilities in front of him with an extremely strong look of joy in his eyes.

He knew that Taliyah would definitely take her people to the City of the Sun, and Azir would definitely settle them properly.

And he successfully fulfilled Talia's wish!

Now is the time to reap the fruits of victory.

Zuo Chi looked at the four options in front of him and chose the second one without any hesitation.

The ability to control rocks like Talia, this is what Zuo Chi wants most now!

Although the other three are pretty good, they can't compare to rock control.

After making his choice, the light blue curtain in front of Zuo Chi slowly disappeared, and a rich mixed yellow light began to light up in his hands, and a very ancient magic flooded into his mind.

Zuo Chi suddenly had a very strange feeling in his heart. It seemed that he could now control all the rocks around him with ease!

Zuo Chi slowly stood up from the boat and stretched himself.

Then he spread the sail of the boat and prepared to head forward.

However, the moment Zuo Chi's hand reached out to the sail in front, his eyes suddenly moved!

Just below his boat, a huge shadow was approaching rapidly, heading straight for his boat!

In a flash, the power of ascension in Zuo Chi's body suddenly erupted, and he instantly left the boat and leaped into the air.

The next moment, an extremely thick anchor rushed out from under the sea and smashed Zuo Chi’s boat into pieces!

"!!!"

Zuo Chi's heart skipped a beat and his body fell uncontrollably.

Zuo Chi still doesn’t know why he was suddenly attacked!

Is it a sea monster? But why is it an anchor?

In this vast ocean, he had almost nothing to leverage on except that small boat.

After the anchor smashed Zuo Chi’s boat, it changed direction again and headed straight for Zuo Chi!

Looking at this rusty anchor, Zuo Chi always felt an extremely familiar feeling.

But the owner of the anchor would not give Zuo Chi a chance to hesitate. Since he had already taken action, it meant that Zuo Chi would definitely be dragged into the water today!

The huge anchor, nearly five meters long, was pulled by an iron chain and suddenly pulled towards Zuo Chi's body.

Zuo Chi's body was covered in a rich golden light. He stomped his feet hard on the water and his hands, filled with the power of ascension, rushed towards the giant anchor.

"boom!!"

The next moment, Zuo Chi’s hands collided heavily with the anchor.

The violent impact caused the entire sea surface to churn, and waves rolled around one after another.

Zuo Chi blocked the huge anchor, but he only blocked it.

On the violently turbulent sea, Zuo Chi couldn't keep his body steady at all.

Above this vast ocean, his power of ascension and ability to manipulate rocks were greatly restricted.

The huge anchor pierced the sea surface again, and this time, the anchor was almost sticking to Zuo Chi's shoulder!

Just as the anchor passed over Zuo Chi's head, the chain pulled the anchor back into the sea rapidly, and the barb of the anchor instantly brought Zuo Chi into the sea.

But this time, when the anchor carried Zuo Chi into the sea, he did not use the power of ascension to block the anchor.

Instead, he let it carry him into the sea!

With both hands grabbing the anchor, Zuo Chi was swept towards the endless abyss.

Just when it became pitch black in front of Zuo Chi, a pair of lights like underwater searchlights broke through the darkness and shone onto Zuo Chi's face!

Immediately afterwards, the huge shadow under the small boat approached Zuo Chi rapidly.

At this time, Zuo Chi finally confirmed his guess.

The anchor did not come from some giant sea monster, but from an iron giant that was nearly ten meters tall!

Deep Sea Titan - Nautilus!

Carried by the anchor, Zuo Chi has arrived in front of Nautilus.

To be precise, Zuo Chi was right in the center of Nautilus's bright eyes, and was completely covered by Nautilus's huge shadow.

"Buzz!"

Deep under the sea, Nautilus' anchor cut through the water and swung towards Zuo Chi's body again.

Ever since Nautilus's companions refused to pay a tithe to the sea and abandoned him in the deep sea wearing his heavy diving armor.

Nautilus already has his own goal: to punish anyone who goes out to sea without paying a tithe to the sea!

This is Nautilus' obsession, and also the mission given to him by Hu's mother!

Obviously, Zuo Chi, who had just left Shurima and was penniless, could not possibly pay a tenth of a ton to the sea.

If you don't pay one tenth, you will naturally be punished by the sea!

Now, the punishment has fallen upon Zuo Chi.

The huge anchor of Nautilus once again came in front of Zuo Chi, but at this moment, his body shook violently!

Zuo Chi seemed to have completely transformed into a bright and scorching sun, and the extremely terrifying power of ascension was unrestrainedly venting out from his body.

He suddenly grasped Nautilus's anchor with both hands, and an extremely terrifying force burst out from his arms, and he suddenly tightened his arms.

Zuo Chi actually wanted to pull Nautilus to his side!

Under Zuo Chi's terrifying power, Nautilus was pulled by the chains and fell towards Zuo Chi.

The moment he arrived in front of Zuo Chi, Zuo Chi's fist, which was filled with blazing golden light, slammed into Nautilus' head.

However, just as Zuo Chi's fist was about to hit Nautilus's armor, a layer of grayish-white light film suddenly appeared on the surface of his body.

"boom!"

Zuo Chi’s fist hit the light film, and a dull roar sounded in the deep sea.

Although Zuo Chi's punch did not hurt Nautilus, it caused his nearly ten-meter-tall body to crash backwards.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zuo Chi immediately turned around and swam above the water.

After forcibly stabilizing his body, Nautilus stomped his feet hard on the seabed and grabbed Zuo Chi's legs with his big hands.

However, as Nautilus's big hands got closer and closer to Zuo Chi's legs, he saw the ochre light in Zuo Chi's hands!

The sea water began to roll violently, and the seabed under the deep sea was shaking violently.

Then, countless rock spikes rose from the bottom of the sea and rushed straight towards Nautilus!

Chapter 24: The Source of Belief in Hong Kong! Soul-Devouring Night!

Under the traction of Zuo Chi, giant rock spikes with a diameter of several meters rushed towards Nautilus above!

Although Nautilus' body was rising rapidly, the rock spikes were rising several times faster.

Just when Nautilus's big hands were about to grab Zuo Chi's legs, the rock spikes rising from various places on the seabed also came in front of Nautilus!

"Puff puff!"

There were bursts of muffled sounds, and the gray-white light film on Nautilus' body surface was instantly pierced. The rock spikes trapped him tightly in the middle of the sea.

Zuo Chi turned his head to look at Nautilus below, then quickly floated up and swam towards a piece of small boat debris.

After floating on the surface, Zuo Chi held on to a large piece of wreckage and paddled forward with all his strength without any reservation.

Before leaving, Zuo Chi did not forget to search his entire body.

After searching for a while, he found a piece of leftover dried meat from his clothes and threw it into the sea.

"We got gold coins, please give Dahai some dried meat."

The moment Zuo Chi recognized Nautilus, he understood why he was pulled to the bottom of the sea.

Now that I have finally escaped from the water, I naturally have to make up for the tenth of the money I owed.
