Ocean Lords: Start Harvesting Double from Dice Rolls-Chapter 463 - 253: A Bold Decision, Assassination Attempt Again_2
Right now, Wan He is very anxious and impatiently looking for a way to enter the treasure hall.
He knows that if he cannot get in, no matter who comes from any side later, they will attack him.
Wan He feels utterly perplexed and somewhat aggrieved, having no idea how he became a target that everyone wants to strike.
"Huh?"
At this moment, Wan He suddenly let out a light gasp, as if he saw a figure flash past inside the treasure hall, disappearing swiftly into the darkness of the hall.
It was as if it never appeared at all.
Wan He was stunned, filled with confusion in his heart.
"How could there be someone in the treasure hall? Did I see it wrong?"
...
Shortly after Wan He arrived in front of the treasure hall, others from the ranks of the Extraordinary Ship, and even from Duorong’s military forces, as well as the Divine Hall Alliance Army, also arrived at the hall’s entrance one after another.
Seeing this, Wan He quickly dodged and hid himself in the shadows, observing everything happening in front of the treasure hall.
No matter whether they were at Warship Level or Extraordinary Ship level, anyone who encountered the barrier in front of the treasure hall found themselves helpless, unable to move the barrier even with brute force.
Everyone stood in front of the treasure hall, staring at each other, their eyes shifting between the hall and their opponents with high vigilance.
The air was filled with a subtle hostility and caution, but neither side made the first move.
After all, no one knew if there were any dangers or tests inside the treasure hall. Exhausting their strength and then facing danger would leave them defenseless.
...
"They’ve all reached the treasure hall’s entrance..."
From a distance, Fang Yu could perceive, through the sensing of energies, the massive energy level fluctuations at the treasure hall’s entrance.
Obviously, everyone in the third phase had all reached the treasure hall’s entrance, and the atmosphere was tense, with tension between the sides ready to explode.
However...
Upon sensing this, Fang Yu showed a peculiar expression on his face.
He glanced at Wang Yuanwei behind him, suddenly having a bizarre thought.
Could it be...
Only when Mr. Wang fully comprehends the alchemy seal patterns on the barrier can the last stage of the treasure hall be opened?
The condition to pass the third phase is to comprehend the alchemy seal patterns on the barrier, and then use the understood knowledge to lift the barrier, allowing access into the treasure hall to obtain divine alchemy artifacts?
In other words...
Everyone is waiting for Mr. Wang to comprehend the alchemy seal patterns on the barrier, but only Fang Yu knows, while others are still foolishly searching for the breakthrough method.
...
Just then, Mr. Wang stretched and stood up, speaking delightfully, "Hey, so that’s how it is. This predecessor is truly a genius, being able to create such a new path."
At this moment, Wang Yuanwei looked clear-headed, brimming with vigor, exuding a unique aura after gaining significant insights this time.
Finally comprehended successfully?
Fang Yu was pleased and immediately pulled Mr. Wang over without a word, "Mr. Wang, did you comprehend it?"
"Comprehend? Not fully, but I should have grasped the basics..."
Wang Yuanwei stroked his chin and replied.
"No, I just want to know if you can break this barrier now?"
Fang Yu stared at him.
"Barrier..."
"Shouldn’t be a problem, do you need me to break it now?"
Wang Yuanwei was surprised.
"Wait!"
Surprisingly, Fang Yu shook his head, not letting Wang Yuanwei break the barrier immediately.
"Hmm?"
Seeing Fang Yu’s serious gaze at the distant Divine Hall Alliance Army, a flash of determination crossed his eyes before he spoke softly, "We need to take action now, or else the situation might become unfavorable soon."
When Wang Yuanwei was about to ask, he saw Fang Yu looking at him earnestly and said, "Mr. Wang, I need you to do something for me!"
...
"Whoosh!"
In the ocean depths, a figure dashed forward at high speed.
Upon closer inspection, it was none other than Fang Yu.
Fang Yu had left his sea vessel, venturing alone, utilizing his water-type extraordinary ability to swiftly navigate through the ocean.
In Fang Yu’s hand, he gripped a bullet laden with alchemy seal patterns.
Armor-Piercing Bullet!
Fang Yu had previously witnessed the Flesh and Blood Evil Beast ignoring shields under the alchemy enchantment, knowing that a master alchemist could engrave weapons powerful enough to bypass shields and directly threaten the sea vessels.
This armor-piercing bullet was precisely crafted by Mr. Wang at Fang Yu’s request, designed to easily pierce through the enchanted shields of sea vessels, rendering the shields ineffective against it.
The reason for Mr. Wang crafting this bullet was because Fang Yu was planning a significant operation:
Assassinate Meng Biao!
Meng Biao still possessed a trump card yet to be used.
Having seen the power of this trump card before, Fang Yu knew that Kong Huaao couldn’t withstand it if unleashed.
At this moment, Meng Biao was deeply concealed within the Divine Hall Alliance Army, lying in wait, already targeting Kong Huaao.
The reason he hadn’t acted was due to the presence of a unique barrier.
Once the barrier vanished, with no separation between the sides, Meng Biao would undoubtedly use his trump card to kill Kong Huaao first in the alchemical treasure tomb.
Mr. Kong can’t die.
He is a crucial member of this mission, and for Fang Yu, Kong Huaao is a significant military connection.
If Kong Huaao were to die, the treasure tomb expedition would likely crumble, resulting in Duorong’s military forces’ failure.
This war would ultimately culminate in Duorong’s defeat.
Fang Yu couldn’t allow this to happen, so he made a bold decision:
Similar to the assassination of the Lighthouse Association’s president before; within this ocean region, he aimed to assassinate Meng Biao.
The sea vessel was too large, too conspicuous, easily allowing Meng Biao to evade into the army, seeking shelter among the Divine Hall Alliance Army.
Thus, Fang Yu had to leave the sea vessel and move independently.
His form darted briskly through the ocean, while Fang Yu adjusted his aura to mimic a sleeping state.
Drawing closer, Fang Yu could almost smell the foul stench of the Flesh and Blood Warship and its unstable energy level.
Sensing this, Fang Yu descended a bit further into the depths.
The sea provided natural concealment, shrouding Fang Yu’s aura within the tumultuous currents at the seabed.
Fang Yu masked his presence, slightly raising his head, already spotting the Flesh and Blood Warship anchored above him.
However, he didn’t hurry; instead, he quietly released a shadowy doppelgänger, sending it off for use as an escape plan.
Meanwhile, Fang Yu’s senses extended out like a patient hunter, quietly probing for Meng Biao’s aura underwater.
After a while, Fang Yu’s eyes brightened, locking his gaze onto an inconspicuous sea vessel.
This sea vessel wasn’t the one Meng Biao originally boarded; this sly old fox had left the command ship to hide on an ordinary, unremarkable vessel to catch others off guard.
Who would expect such a nondescript vessel to harbor enough power to destroy an Extraordinary Ship tier force?
With this in mind, Fang Yu carefully adjusted his aura, withdrawing from his inventory an advanced sniper rifle purchased through Lu Kun.
As a custom-made military weapon for the Ocean World, this sniper rifle was designed with underwater sniping scenarios in mind.
The designer thoughtfully inscribed it with alchemy seal patterns to create a thrust that would push away surrounding seawater, ensuring the sniper rifle had a sufficiently dry firing environment.
Setting up the rifle, loading the armor-piercing bullet, and adjusting his breath.
Fang Yu closed his eyes slightly, having already locked onto Meng Biao’s position with his senses; opening his eyes would distort his aim due to the underwater and air light refraction. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮
At this moment, Fang Yu resembled a ghost in the ocean, still and breathless, emitting no aura.
The surrounding seawater enveloped him, swallowing the light around him, and plunging Fang Yu into darkness.
There was only one chance.
With a single shot, Meng Biao had to be taken down before he could fully react.
Otherwise, if Meng Biao reacted and triggered his crystal stone trump card, it would be the end for Fang Yu.
Yet Fang Yu wasn’t nervous; his mind was exceptionally calm, eyes closed as if in slumber.
After a moment...
"Bang!"
