Chapter 628: Scattered Stars Two Poisoners
This Hidden Fisher had shockingly seven stars, which was even more than what Senior Brother Dashuai did! Han Fei couldn’t help but be awed to silence.
After such a long time, he had realized that a one-star gap could mean a huge difference in social status. Whoever had seven stars must be a big shot on the Scattered Stars Island.
Therefore, Han Fei chose to give in and looked at Cao Qiu.
Never had Han Fei expected to see Cao Qiu here. He thought that the man was too scared of death to ever go to a battlefield.
The Hidden Fisher simply said, “Huh, that explains why both of you like using poisons. I didn’t know that you knew each other.”
“Cough, cough!”
Han Fei realized that Cao Qiu must’ve been spraying poisons somewhere on the battlefield too until he caught the Hidden Fisher’s attention.
Han Fei was rather embarra.s.sed, as he didn’t know poisons at all, and all his poisons were developed by Cao Qiu.
Before Cao Qiu and Han Fei could talk, the Hidden Fisher said, “Go to the front line and release as much poison in the sea as possible.”
Cao Qiu was about to talk, when Han Fei interjected, “Senior, I invested a thousand kinds of poisonous gra.s.ses to make the poison. I would rather die than to give all my poison up. It will be too heavy a loss for me.”
Cao Qiu was speechless. Your loss? More like my loss! I was the one who made the poison king.
But he replied quickly, “Yeah, senior! To make this poison, I even tried it on myself and nearly got killed.”
Han Fei glanced at him, quite shocked by his shamelessness. You tried the poison on yourself? Even an idiot wouldn’t believe that.
The Hidden Fisher glanced at Han Fei and Cao Qiu. “You will be rewarded with points.”
Han Fei instantly patted his chest. “It’s my responsibility to protect the safety of my comrades.”
Seeing how immoral Han Fei was, Cao Qiu immediately said, “Fine! The poison is a little price to pay if we can win this battle! I can always try making more poison even though it may cost my life.”
The Hidden Fisher was so dazzled by their shamelessness that he almost whipped them into the sea.
Why weren’t you so generous when I didn’t promise you points?
However, the battle was still urgent, and the poisons that Han Fei and the fatty released were quite effective. They could probably be equivalent to the effectiveness of two hundred soul warriors!
The fifty kilometers was covered in the blink of an eye. Han Fei didn’t have much time to talk at all.
At this moment, Han Fei and Cao Qiu finally saw the front line of the battlefield.
On the first row of pillars, the four-star soul warriors were firing their bows nonstop. Each of their strikes raised a storm dozens of meters in diameter in the sea.
The sea was red for dozens of meters long. Han Fei even saw a red Inferior Man-Fish that was riding a fancy-looking giant fish in the distance.
Other Inferior Man-Fish could be vaguely seen in the tide of Red Ghosts. They were spurring the other sea creatures.
On the top of the red tide was a layer of worms that were a half meter long.
There was no telling how many creatures were down there in the water.
Occasionally, some Inferior Man-Fish darted their long spears at the soul warriors on the stone pillars from the tide.
The Hidden Fisher roared, “Release the poisons!”
Han Fei and Cao Qiu both sprayed about half a kilogram of the poison king into the water.
The Hidden Fisher was unsatisfied. “That’s too little. Use whatever you have.”
Cao Qiu replied, “It’s already enough. We can spray it elsewhere.”
“Huh?”
The Hidden Fisher was briefly stunned. He was rather suspicious that this little amount of poison was enough for such a vast sea.
However, the sea was boiling after only several seconds. Large areas of swarms were discharging red greasy fluids that were rather disgusting on the surface of the sea.
In the water, colorful fish and crabs were floating on the surface of the sea.
Those fish were attacking indiscriminately. As a result, the sea was seething like magma.
“Hiss!”
Seeing that, the Hidden Fisher instantly looked at Cao Qiu and Han Fei. “What poison is this?”
Cao Qiu declared proudly, “It doesn’t have a name; it’s just the poison king. It is the best of poisons and is good enough to kill saints…”
“Pa!”
The Hidden Fisher’s face was gloomy. “Don’t get c.o.c.ky.”
Cao Qiu had been speaking so proudly that he raised his head higher and higher.
He quickly shrank his head. “This poison can spread via the flesh and blood of the poisoned creatures, so it can cover a large area.”
“Is that so? Then throw all of it into the sea.”
The Hidden Fisher gave Cao Qiu a slap and then looked at Han Fei. “You’re next. Control the water and spray the poison on the sea as rainwater.”
Han Fei certainly couldn’t refuse the order, but there was no way that he was giving away all his poison king either.
He didn’t believe that this man would give him a lot of points. But he could offer half of his poison king. After all, Cao Qiu should have all the poison king they needed.
Therefore, on the cruel battlefield on the Path of Giants, a storm followed a boat all the way in the sky.
On the frontier of the Path of Giants, the sea was boiling wherever the storm reached.
The army of worms that had been charging forward fearlessly lost their momentum at this moment.
It was not like they didn’t want to charge, but they simply couldn’t do so anymore after they vomited all their internal organs out.
The soul warriors who were shooting crazily from the pillars were dumbfounded. What’s going on? What’s in the storm? The red tide is much less powerful and fast since being hit by the storm! Many of the enemies even attacked one another before they reached the pillar.
Someone asked in shock, “Is it poison?”
“Dear lord, I didn’t know that there was any poison that could suppress the Red Ghosts.”
“They’re attacking poison with poison?”
“Who are the two young men that are spreading poisons? They’ve made great contributions.”
“Look at the Inferior Man-Fish. He’s vomiting so hard that he can’t even hold his harpoon steadily.”
“Brothers, work harder. Victory is right near at hand!”
…
The soul warriors at the front row fought even harder.
However, even though they were dropping poisons generously, Han Fei had used up the poison king that he planned after only covering one third of the area.
Cao Qiu didn’t seem to have much more poison either. He used up his a hundred seconds after Han Fei did.
Watching the boiling sea, the Hidden Fisher had complicated feelings. He wondered if he should submit a proposal on poison research. If they could make a lot more poison as lethal as the poison king, the Red Ghosts wouldn’t be a problem anymore, and the number of casualties would be significantly reduced.
“Unfortunately, you don’t have enough poison.”
While the Hidden Fisher had complicated feelings, he sensed something and soared to the sky, before he threw out a spear that hit a dark harpoon as quick as lightning.
BAM!
The Hidden Fisher stepped back and looked at the red Inferior Man-Fish. Han Fei even saw a Half-Mermaid behind the Inferior Man-Fish.
The Hidden Fisher laughed hard. “Get lost, you cowards!”
Multiple Inferior Man-Fish surfaced behind them and looked at the scene from a distance.
Han Fei detected the fury in their eyes. Those creatures seemed yearning to eat him and Cao Qiu alive.
The Half-Mermaid, in particular, was still gazing at Han Fei and Cao Qiu.
Cao Qiu couldn’t help but lower his head. “I know that mermaids are intelligent. Do they know that we did this?”
Han Fei heaved a long sigh. “Definitely. We must be extra careful when we ever set sail in the future.”
“Hahaha!”
The Hidden Fisher stood on one side of the boat. “Those sea demons are as intelligent as human beings. They’ve indeed got their eyes on you. But it’s not a problem. Where can they find you on the vast sea?”
Han Fei shuddered. “What if they have some sort of wanted list?”
The Hidden Fisher laughed. “If they do, so be it! Why should the elites of human beings be scared of those hideous fish demons? Okay, this battle is almost over. You will come with me to receive your rewards later.”
Because the red tide couldn’t push on anymore, no more enemies could go to the battlefield in the rear. As a result, the battle in the rear was soon finished!
Some people were asked to clear the battlefield, but most already started to retreat.
At this moment, two boats came close from the sky, and Han Fei asked in shock, “Commander?”
Zong Han looked at Han Fei. “Not bad.”
Then, Zong Han cupped his hands at the Hidden Fisher next to Han Fei. “Lord Yang, this man is the captain of the 37th squad of the Eighth Battalion that defends the Skeleton Sh.o.r.e… I wonder…”
On the other hand, another Hanging Fisher came close. She looked at Cao Qiu and then cupped her hands. “Lord Yang, Cao Qiu is the second son of the Cao Family front the Thousand Star City. He should not go to the battlefield easily. My lord, please let me take him away.”
This Lord Yang next to Han Fei narrowed his eyes and said, “Oh? He’s from the Cao family in the Thousand Star City? Interesting… However, those two should be rewarded, and they will come with me.”
“My lord!”
“My lord!”
“Get lost…”
The most intimidating and brutal pressure was released. The air was shaking, and the spiritual energy was disordered.
When infuriated, the brutality that the Hidden Fisher released made Cao Qiu and Han Fei giddy.
They had never sensed such pressure at all.
Cao Qiu acted as if nothing happened, but Han Fei’s body trembled as if a mountain just fell on his back. He couldn’t help but shudder.
Zong Han and the female Hanging Fisher looked at each other and gnashed his teeth. “Yes, sir.”
“What’s going on?”
Han Fei and Cao Qiu communicated with eye contact without any telepathic talk, because telepathic talk was barely secretive in front of a Hidden Fisher, which was a lesson that they had learned too many times.
The Yang-surnamed Hidden Fisher said casually, “Attention, everybody! Don’t relax just yet! Hanging Fishers, organize your teams. You will be rewarded according to your contribution after the battlefield is cleared.”
