Ryan smiled, not irritated by Monica’s teasing, and instead looked at Lin Xian.
"Captain Lin, if I told you that reaching Destruction Level using Level 4 Blood Essence for Crystal Grid Cultivation has at least a 90% success rate, would you take the risk?"
"No." Lin Xian’s face was indifferent. "If the plan is just that, then it’s downright stupid. But I feel it’s definitely not that simple, right?"
Vanessa and the others remained calm, confirming Lin Xian’s suspicion was correct. Ryan took a deep breath and then said,
"Yes, Level 4 Blood Essence is now an extrely valuable material for both the interstellar army and the Phoenix Society. For us survivors in the Sea Group, handling Special Level is definitely Hell-level difficulty, not to ntion possibly a whole bunch."
As he spoke, he switched the screen’s image, showing a three-dinsional hologram of an underwater continent. Ryan pointed to a special area northeast of Sea Rock Island, where the terrain was very peculiar, resembling a cone. Lin Xian reacted imdiately upon seeing it and said solemnly,
"Underwater volcano?"
"Galan Volcano, located southwest of the Pacific Ocean Deep Ridge in the Galan Trench, 96 nautical miles in a straight line from Sea Rock Island. It’s a volcano that’s been active for over two thousand years, albeit with low-frequency activity. But the last eruption caused a tsunami over 490 ters high, splitting Sea Rock Island into 14 pieces..."
Lin Xian frowned, "Does this have anything to do with the Abnormal Body?"
"No, it’s related to sothing on Sea Rock Island," Ryan revealed shockingly.
"What? Volcano and sothing related?" KIKI looked puzzled, "What are you talking about?"
"It’s a Taboo Item."
Gedi turned to face Lin Xian and the others, candidly saying, "When we got this information, we had the sa expression as you."
Lin Xian was quite shocked, "A Taboo Item could control an underwater volcano, so you’re planning to use this to hunt the Abnormal Body?"
Ryan shook his head, looked at Lin Xian, and sincerely said,
"Lin, don’t you understand? The current situation is that we are being hunted."
At this point, Vanessa stepped forward and said to Lin Xian, "Level 4 Blood Essence is precious, but what we care about most is not this. It’s how to safely leave this sea area under the premise of being surrounded by these dayti Special Level Abnormal Bodies and the abnormal activity of Galan Volcano."
Ryan nodded and added, "It’s indeed very risky. Besides us, people from Holy City are also on Sea Rock Island looking for this thing, so we’re considering ourselves too. Blood Essence... is actually the last thing in our plan."
Lin Xian’s gaze swept over the large ships around the Neptune. If the fleet wanted to leave, it could only go north around the Pacific Ocean Deep Ridge. However, this aircraft carrier would struggle to move around a large bay relying only on dayti hours. So Lin Xian imdiately understood the aning of Ryan’s words.
At the sa ti, he felt heavy-hearted, not expecting the situation on Sea Rock Island to be so complicated. According to Ryan’s information, the surrounding Special Level Abnormal Bodies were likely attracted by either the Taboo Item or the disturbances of Galan Volcano, while Sea Rock Island was the epicenter affected.
Fortunately, before entering the ocean, he had considered the possibility of orbiting fractures or storms. The Infinity has underwater propulsion and a military-grade subrsion capability exceeding 500 ters. In the event of a desperate situation, even with the risk of encountering S-Class atmospheric creatures, he could pilot the Sky Do for trans-ocean flying towards the Republican Islands, so it wasn’t a dead end for Lin Xian.
But seeing the aerial photos of the deep sea below, he really didn’t want to dive unless absolutely necessary, and he didn’t want to fly with the mory of Qingluan Sky City still fresh in his mind. Lin Xian realized that Ryan’s plan seed primarily aid at not getting involved in the so-called hunt, so he was curious about the plan’s masterminds and the full details of the plan’s purpose.
"I’m curious, if the volcano really erupts, whether it can solve the Abnormal Body is one thing, but how will you survive?" Monica’s thoughts aligned with Lin Xian’s, directly addressing the critical point.
"We actually don’t want the volcano to erupt, which is why we’re searching for this Taboo Item. If it falls into the hands of Holy City, that would be the worst outco."
Vanessa said at this point, "Our information is that this Taboo Item might have the power to influence volcanic thermal activity. It can use this to attract those dayti Abnormal Bodies and carry out proactive attacks during the day."
Monica contemplated, "So you’re still directly hunting Special Level Abnormal Bodies?"
"Yes." Ryan nodded, "And we believe dayti is the best ti."
"Why?" KIKI asked in confusion.
"Three reasons," Vanessa explained.
"First, adaptability." She raised one finger, "We’ve encountered them; the Evil Demons that have just adapted to dayti have evolved Biological Force Fields, but their lifespan and Life Force are exceptionally poor. This is probably the price of breaking through the night, and this is precisely our advantage; dayti is our human territory."
"Second, Crystal Grid Power." Gedi picked up the conversation, showing the Crystal Grid engravings on his arm, "Our Dark Energy is stronger during the day; we don’t need to worry about Dark Marks."
"Third, Monster Tide." Ryan added last, "There won’t be a massive Monster Tide outbreak during the day. We only need to deal with targets within range, rather than endless tide reinforcents."
"Wow." KIKI said with interest, "You’ve thought this through, but have you considered that if the attracted Special Level entities exceed one, such as that Abnormal Nest, who knows how many Abnormal Bodies are above?"
Lin Xian’s expression was complex as he looked at Ryan and everyone else, saying to KIKI,
"If I’m not mistaken, they intend to initiate the aircraft carrier’s nuclear power reactor to relocate at full speed while hunting."
"And Sea Rock Island and Galan Volcano are simply massive..." Lin Xian looked at Ryan and the others, saying word by word,
"Luring Agent!"
