Chapter 690: Snow Bird Harbor Battle – The Young Man’s Changes
The dragonman youngster teleported over, prepared for the worst battle possible, but the result was smooth winds and currents, with no twists and turns.
No one noticed their teleportation.
The dragonman youngster was also familiar with the place the big guy was locked up in.
He had once gone deep into the city government palace’s underground dungeon.
After getting out, he and Hun Tong immediately came to the port to observe the battlefield.
He didn’t act directly, instead he chose to do something else.
That bizarre and sudden alarm was caused by him.
But because he used a deception divine spell, no one present noticed where this alarm was coming from.
From this, it could be seen that when facing first class opponents like the Snow Bird Harbor City Lord and Tan Mo, Charming Blue divine spells still possessed an extremely powerful practical nature. As for the Li Jian Clan noticing Zi Di’s shenanigans, it was not them seeing through Deceptive Disguise, rather it was them relying on their monitoring ability, where they noticed the flaws between the two “Long Fus”.
In military affairs, the dragonman youngster naturally couldn’t compare to Zong Ge, but through many large scale battles, he had practical experience.
The dragonman youngster watched on the sidelines, gratified to find that his mercenaries’ military qualities had obviously improved since his departure.
Of course, the regular navy had higher military accomplishments, and this led to the dragonman youngster’s advance warning not doing much.
But on the other hand, he did gain something,
Through divine spells and constant magical observation, he saw many hidden traitors and spies laid bare.
He also deployed an alchemy item to record these scenes, so that after this battle finished, he could settle accounts.
“Our ships were repaired in Snow Bird Harbor’s docks. Since Snow Bird Harbor City Lord is an imperial secret spy, he must have secretly infiltrated them and then instigated them.”
“Our new recruits are all suspicious, and those we recruited before might be incited into rebellion.”
“Weren’t two of the Bayonet Gang’s ringleaders not Snow Bird Harbor City Lord’s arrangements? The Imperial Secret Spy Agency is the largest intelligence organization on the Main Plane.”
The dragonman youngster understood that this was an exceptionally good opportunity that wouldn’t be easy to come across.
He decided to exploit this rare opportunity to see who would stand out.
“No matter how it is, I will handle them!” The dragonman youngster had already determined his answer.
Of course, the dragonman youngster always gave the other survivors the greatest level of trust.
But he couldn’t rule out the chance some of the survivors had been bought off or deserted.
The dragonman youngster was constantly changing.
On Mystifying Monster Island, he used the Bloodcore to turn into different lifeforms. After leaving Mystifying Monster Island, he turned into a dragonman and then into a fishman.
His changes were not just limited to his appearance.
All kinds of experiences constantly molded his wisdom, evolved his worldview, values, life outlook, touched his spirit, and enlarged his horizons.
In the depths of the seafloor, he and Cang Xu helped each other, constantly investigated things, and he absorbed Cang Xu’s benefits.
He duped Charming Blue Goddess and then utilized Charming Blue divine spells to deceive the Main Earth Elemental God and Teacher Si Ling to save the big guy and to steal death divinity. All kinds of personal experience gave him ample appreciation and comprehension for the power of deception!
Afterwards, he discovered Snow Bird Harbor City Lord was a secret spy and found that Tan Mo and Snow Bird Harbor City Lord were scheming against the Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps and that stirred the fishman youngster’s thoughts even more – I deceived others, while others simultaneously deceived me! I have to always be careful because the world outside of Mystifying Monster Island is the same, filled with the cruel competition of survival.
In fact, the competition outside of that island was even more complicated and was a mix of countless conspiracies and plots. Superficial friends were in fact enemies (Snow Bird Harbor City Lord), or the relationship between enemy and friend was ever shifting (Hun Tong).
“Powerful beings can be schemed against too. Like the Main Earth Elemental God and Teacher Si Ling.”
“Besides, Snow Bird Harbor City Lord is not a weak person, he has formidable strength!”
The dragonman youngster was quite prudent.
Carrying all kinds of stirred emotions, he left for the capital and after observing for a time, he decided to act. It yielded excellent results, and he deceived the Li Jian Clan. Although the results haven’t appeared yet, his main goal had already been achieved.
This reinforcement of the Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps branch was the same.
The present.
The dragonman youngster observing at the edge of the battlefield was not just the warrior from Mystifying Monster Island, the inspirational speaker from Snake Rat Island, or the valiant military leader that charged ahead on Two Eyes Island, rather he was a tactical master who gradually learned how to plan before acting.
The dragonman youngster had returned!
Not only had he returned with all new powers but also elevated wisdom.
He also returned to Snow Bird Harbor with Ku Feng, Qi Ling, Xiao Wang Zi, and Lady Sea Snake.
That’s right, Lang Xiao was Ku Feng.
Tripleblade did not recognize them because these people had many deception spells on them.
As for Lang Xiao’s dauntless bravery and fearless fighting style, the reason was that he was undead, and many mortal injuries were minor injuries to the undead.
Ku Feng, Xiao Wang Zi, Lady Sea Snake, and Qi Ling were teleported into Ocean Monster Nest’s blood sacrifice then taken captive by the fishman youngster.
During the fishman youngster’s blasphemous prayer, his understanding of memory modification increased by a lot.
After Cang Xu’s cautious and rigorous investigation, the fishman youngster began to modify the memories of his prisoners.
The survivors had a memory crystal making device, one of the important inheritances from War Merchant.
The fishman youngster also knew many deceptive divine spells, and it went without saying, both brought the best out of each other in a perfect match!
The Memory Concealment spell suppressed their original memories and hid them away.
The Memory Switch spell was an ingenious method in the fishman youngster’s hands that blocked these memories.
Although the new memories were inadequate and not detailed enough, it was enough to make these captives willing to die for the dragonman youngster!
Then adding on a lot of equipment, they immediately possessed great combat strength.
What?
The source of their equipment?
Silver level equipment was widely circulated in the market, and the Ice Sculpture Kingdom’s armor prohibition only restricted equipment of the gold level and higher.
Money could be used to purchase it.
And nowadays the survivors…
Had money!
Zi Di’s arduously executed business plan had reaped extreme gains. Her immense contribution not only gave the survivors an abundant cash flow but also made their entire financial situation very healthy.
However, the equipment Ku Feng and the others was not things the dragonman youngster hastily purchased from the market after his return.
Rather, after the Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps had landed on the island, they had always been buying equipment.
Once prior, because of a lack of funds, Tripleblade, the secret decision maker of the Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps branch, wanted to stop this purchasing plan.
Now, the benefits had shown themselves.
