Chapter 185 An Extremely Dangerous Entity—The Tourist Ship from Which There Is No Escape! (End of Volume)
The name "the sightseeing boat from which there is no escape" immediately came to mind for everyone.
The reason why everyone called the entity "Glutton" was because when they first saw this incredibly powerful and mysterious entity, he was feasting at the Bald family's dining table.
The only witnesses were Baldr Jr. and his son, and Major General Ellis, but since that's how it was called, the title stuck.
In fact, other entities are the same; they never reveal their own names directly, but rather they are all names that people summarize based on the characteristics of the entity.
Food critics always push food carts, selling what are said to be the most delicious food in the universe, but the price of ordering is a bit high.
The storyteller, needless to say, the combination of "story" and "question and answer" perfectly summarizes the characteristics of this entity, as well as the bard, the chief of all poisons, the fanatical tomb raider, and so on.
Therefore, this ship, which drifts on the sea and is actually made up of a group of seemingly innocent college students but is in fact all solid objects, was naturally named "The Sightseeing Ship from Which There Is No Escape".
"What should we do?" The first mate asked the captain of the Red Pufferfish, trembling.
Although everyone usually doesn't respect the captain because he's talkative and unpretentious, the pirates all understand that when it comes to crucial moments, they still have to rely on the captain.
Captain Red Pufferfish is also very reliable in critical moments.
This time, however, the captain of the Red Porcupine did not act on his own initiative. Instead, he looked at Prince Justinian and Avalon with a questioning gaze.
Prince Justinian is experienced, Avalon is extremely intelligent, and given their status and strength as angelic overlords, it's natural to listen to their opinions first in this life-or-death crisis.
boom!
Boom!
Suddenly, countless explosions rang out in the surrounding sea, accompanied by intense flames and thick black smoke.
Prince Justinian's face darkened, and he shook his head almost imperceptibly.
They could vaguely see that amidst the flames and black smoke, there were pumpkin carriages loaded with bombs, which were blasted to pieces in the explosion.
In Avalonna's pure, lake-blue eyes, a look of "I knew it" appeared. She withdrew her gaze and looked up at Prince Justinian.
"All the secret abilities have been inexplicably neutralized?"
Prince Justinian nodded solemnly:
"Hmm, only the bomb in the Pumpkin Carriage remains, but that's not my Secret Bond ability, so it was detonated directly."
Xia Fa was pleased to hear this. The bomb in the pumpkin carriage in the fairy tale world didn't actually come from the Secret Contract ability?
At this point, he naturally couldn't ask any more questions. He could only guess that it might be some kind of extraordinary bomb, which was so powerful that Prince Justinian used it in conjunction with the secret ability of the Pumpkin Carriage.
The pirates' hearts sank.
Everyone could see that the moment this "inescapable sightseeing boat" appeared, Prince Justinian, this angelic overlord, had already reacted.
He must have used many secret contract abilities, especially the secret contract ability in the overlord-level secret contract of the fairy tale world.
But to my surprise, it was all canceled out!
The sightseeing boat was clearly about 100 meters away from everyone, yet it directly neutralized the secret contract ability of an angel-level overlord.
At this moment, everyone had only one thought in their minds.
Faced with the physical form, Avalon, who truly had no way to resist, seemed to have no other option either. He shook his head slightly and stopped speaking.
Captain Red Porcupine seemed to have a plan, but seeing that Prince Justinian's secret abilities had been completely neutralized, he could only sigh and say nothing more.
The sightseeing boat is approaching.
The male and female college students standing behind the railings on the boat became even more enthusiastic, waving their arms wildly, their passionate and innocent voices faintly audible.
"Hey! Hey! Can you see us?!"
"It's amazing to meet other people at sea!"
"Hey guys on the other boat, come join us! We've brought lots of delicious snacks and drinks!"
"Yes, yes, we'd love to hear your fascinating tales from the sea!"
"They all seem like a very nice group of people."
Hearing the sound coming from the wind, Xia Fa and the others on the ship finally understood why other ships had been tricked into boarding this tourist boat from which there was no escape, resulting in the total annihilation of the entire fleet.
Because it's so easy to be fooled if you don't know beforehand that it's a physical object!
The sightseeing boat, made of steel, is clearly only affordable for the wealthy and powerful.
On the boat, there was a group of college students who were so enthusiastic they were almost foolish, and they were all handsome men and beautiful women. What bad intentions could they possibly have?
On the other hand, every spring and summer, the three academies of the Augu Royal Palace, the five academies of the Wave Moon Empire, and the Cloth Bag Academy of the Cloth Bag Dynasty would send out sightseeing ships to allow their students to broaden their horizons at sea.
Of course, these sightseeing boats will only sail to the territorial waters of the two pirate emperors, the Father of Ten Thousand Stars and the Princess of the Sharks.
After all, only these two pirate emperors could restrain the pirates under their rule, never allowing them to burn, kill, plunder, or rob any passing merchant or civilian ships.
Therefore, the reason why some ships have been tricked into boarding these sightseeing boats with no way to escape these past few days is because they subconsciously mistook them for sightseeing boats at universities in various countries.
Women are rarely seen at sea, and this sightseeing boat is now being enthusiastically invited by a lively and energetic female college student—it's easy to imagine how irresistible this would be to pirates.
No one could have predicted that once they got on the ship, they wouldn't be able to get off.
At that moment, the inescapable sightseeing boat drew ever closer and closer.
For some reason, everyone felt immense pressure, the kind of pressure that felt like facing a life-or-death crisis.
This pressure is not fake. Before anyone can figure out the rules of the special entities on these ships, the slightest carelessness, a single action or word could violate their rules and lead to the annihilation of the entire group!
Moreover, it is completely unstoppable; even if a ruler or an extraordinary monarch were to arrive, they would be annihilated without being able to resist!
"Since boarding the ship is unavoidable, then board it first, and then follow my lead."
Avalon spoke calmly, his tone unusually unwavering even at this moment.
After saying that, Avalon suddenly took out a pair of sunglasses and put them on.
Everyone:
Prince Justinian: —
Xiafa:
Even at a time like this, he still has the mind to tease everyone?
How am I supposed to read your mind while wearing sunglasses?!
Avalon removed his sunglasses, looked at Prince Justinian, and once again revealed a smile that was rarely seen on his face:
"You always say I'm as cold as ice and as wooden as a block of wood. Since I might die anyway, I've decided to show my humorous side and shatter your prejudiced impression."
Prince Justinian didn't know whether to laugh or cry, or feel sad, so he could only sigh and shake his head.
Only now did he realize that this old rival seemed to be someone he could be friends with.
Unfortunately, the chance is gone.
The Red Porcupinefish was already immobilized, as if frozen to the surface of the sea, only able to helplessly allow the inescapable tourist boat to approach.
Many pirates eventually succumbed to the pressure and collapsed.
Some buried their faces in their hands and wept bitterly, pleading that they didn't want to die.
Some had blank expressions and swayed as if they were about to fall.
Some even rushed to the barbecue grill, ignoring the heat, and grabbed the thick, fat meat of the freshly grilled whale to eat, while chugging down fine wine, as if they wanted to enjoy it one last time before they died, to indulge in the beauty of the world one last time.
All sorts of terrifying rumors about the physical world that they had heard since childhood surfaced uncontrollably in their minds under these circumstances. As the sightseeing boat, from which there was no escape, drew closer, more and more people broke down.
Only Xiafa, Prince Justinian, Avalon, Captain Red Boar, and Dagny could barely maintain their sanity.
On that sightseeing boat from which there was no escape, the voices of the university students could already be clearly heard.
"Closer, closer!"
Wow, there are so many handsome guys on board!
"That handsome guy who's 1.9 meters tall is mine now, and you're not allowed to take him from me!"
"Hehe, who's going to take it from you? Shameless."
"Quickly, go and get out the good food to treat them!"
Both male and female college students became increasingly enthusiastic and delighted, giving the impression that they were truly college students and genuinely happy to have encountered other ships at sea.
But the people on board the Red Porcupine became increasingly terrified upon seeing it.
Because, in everyone's perception, the college students on this sightseeing ship from which they could not escape were not delighted to have met people, but rather delighted to have met living people!
The sightseeing boat, which looked like it was made of steel, finally stopped not far from the Red Porcupine.
It stopped in a very strange way. It was traveling at a speed of over 100 knots just before, but when it got close to the Red Porcupinefish, it stopped abruptly without any momentum, stopping not far from the Red Porcupinefish.
It was as if an invisible hand had suddenly stopped it.
On the sightseeing boat from which there was no escape, a gray-black steel gangplank extended out, cutting through the railings of the Red Porcupine, creating a "bridge" between the two ships.
"Come here! Come here! We've got all the snacks ready!"
A tall female college student waved enthusiastically to the people on the Red Porcupine.
This female college student has long, smooth platinum blonde hair and is wearing a white dress with jasmine patterns, making her look both pure and beautiful.
Normally, the pirates would never have been able to resist such an invitation, but now, they were so scared they felt like wetting themselves.
Seeing that no pirates stepped onto the steel plank, Shafa, Prince Justinian, and Avalon also held back for the time being, and the female college student seemed to be getting a little anxious.
"Come on over here, or we're not inviting you anymore, hmph!"
Bang!!!!!
As soon as he finished speaking, the bodies of more than a dozen pirates suddenly exploded!
Blood splattered on the faces of countless people, and many pirates stared wide-eyed in horror.
Having spent their lives at sea, the pirates were naturally adept at adapting to changing circumstances, and they immediately realized what was happening upon seeing the situation.
Putting everything else aside, the first rule regarding this "sightseeing boat from which there is no escape" is that only university students on board should be allowed to pass.
We absolutely have to get there, otherwise there will be a bang!!!
Another deafening explosion followed, this time shattering the bodies of over fifty pirates on board, ranging from fungus-class to wolf-class and whale-class.
Without warning, and there was no way to resist!
The pirates finally panicked and rushed onto the steel ramp.
Many pirates, due to the crowding, were accidentally pushed off the steel gangplank and were about to fall into the sea.
But just then, the pirates who were about to fall into the sea suddenly appeared on the steel sightseeing ship!
Many pirates finally boarded the sightseeing ship via the steel gangplank, and no more pirate bodies exploded on the Red Porcupine.
However, everyone on the ship was filled with despair.
Just like the name of this sightseeing boat, it's a sightseeing boat from which there is no escape. Once you get on, there's no way to escape, and your fate is unknown.
At least in the past few days, none of the people who boarded the ship, whether pirates, merchants, or ordinary people, have escaped or reappeared at sea!
However, even if you don't board this tourist ship from which there is no escape, you will still die. The sixty-odd pirates whose bodies exploded earlier are the best and most tragic example.
Prince Justinian and Avalon exchanged a glance, then looked at Shafa. All three shook their heads, remained silent, and stepped onto the steel plank.
Since getting on this sightseeing boat from which there is no escape will immediately cause my body to explode, I have no choice but to board the boat and take a look.
Getting on the ship might offer a sliver of hope for survival.
Just now, the other pirates might not have felt it, but Prince Justinian and the two angels, Avalon, clearly felt that the bodies of those sixty-odd pirates had exploded under the influence of some kind of "rule".
It was an invisible yet powerful rule, impossible to fathom and impossible to resist.
Just like the "rules" of entities such as gourmets, storytellers, and avid tomb raiders, violating them will result in immediate death.
After all, those are "rules," how can people resist rules?
Prince Justinian was the first to step onto the deck of the steel sightseeing ship, followed by Avalon, and then Shafa.
Strangely, on the sightseeing boat from which there was no escape, the seemingly innocent and foolish male and female college students still stood by the railing, waving enthusiastically to the remaining people on the Red Porcupine, completely ignoring those who had already boarded the sightseeing boat.
It was as if they weren't living people, but rather strange beings that could only perform mechanical actions.
Based on this alone, Xia Fa was even more certain that this was indeed a group of entities.
Because he had seen this kind of "mechanization" in storytellers and gourmets as well.
Only by meeting their rules, such as ordering and finishing the food from the gourmet restaurant, or correctly answering the questions in the storyteller's story, can their "mechanization" be broken.
At that time, they will become like normal people again, and even their expressions will become lively and vivid.
"So, why are these entities insisting on getting us on board?"
Xia Fa frowned and began to think, while simultaneously searching for a solution.
But then, something completely unexpected happened!
