Chapter 183 - - 183 Maybe I am your dad_1

—————✧✧✧✧—————

The ice spikes fell from the sky in relentless succession, imprisoning Duge in their midst, his oxygen depleting rapidly due to the vigorous exertion, making his movements slow and sluggish.

Finally.

A massive ice spike struck his shoulder with a heavy thud.

An excruciating pain shot through him, and he instantly lost sensation in one of his arms; the Sword of the Giant Dragon nearly slipped into the water.

Seeing no way to dodge, Duge could only clench his teeth and dive deeper into the water, frantically touching the panicked fish around him to heal his injuries as he went.

He would never give up until the last moment.

Sea God Scepter.

The Sea God Scepter was his only chance at a turnaround.

As the second ice spike hit Duge, a flash of golden light suddenly appeared in his field of vision.

The tentacle of the Sea Beast Enke held a golden magic wand, swimming straight towards him, and at the moment when Duge’s lungs felt scorched, the Sea God Scepter was delivered into his hands.

And with a flick of its tentacle, helped clear away the falling ice spikes.

…

Duge took the Sea God Scepter and tried to swing it, but nothing around him changed.

Feeling an increasing tightness in his lungs, he couldn’t help but panic.

Wasn’t it said?

Mortals can use the scepter by expending life force, right?

But why couldn’t he use it?

After pondering for a moment.

Duge turned the Sword of the Giant Dragon in his hand and, with all his strength, carved the character for “fish” onto the Sea God Scepter.

At the same time, his other hand stroked the scepter up and down.

The next second.

His constricted lungs suddenly felt clear, and the surrounding seawater seemed more welcoming, as if he was born to live underwater.

Duge tried to stir the currents with the scepter.

Sure enough.

A huge vortex formed in the sea, and his tireless body began to feel a hint of fatigue.

Was it true that mortals used the scepter at the cost of their life force?

Duge laughed at himself mockingly.

At this point, what did life force matter?

It’s not like the body was his own anyway.

If he could just beat everyone else, even by a breath, he would still be first.

Touching a shark swimming by to regain some strength, Duge raised the scepter in his hand and a surge of water sprouted upward, dispersing all the ice spikes falling from above.

Immediately after.

The sea lifted Duge from the depths to the surface.

Seeing Paul, like a god, lifted by the waves, everyone’s faces changed. Jannie waved her hands forcefully, trying to pierce Duge with ice spikes, but all her efforts were pushed aside by the massive wave that Duge created with his scepter.

Duge glanced at Jannie, then at Jon Ludi behind her, and with a slight smile, he swung the scepter hard: “Let’s liven things up!”

As soon as the words were spoken.

A vortex that seemed to link the heavens formed on the sea, drawing not only Jannie’s fleet towards it but also Jon Ludi’s pirate gang behind them.

By then, Duge could hardly care about the consequences. As he used the Sea God Scepter, his vigorous strength was rapidly waning; if he didn’t take this chance to eliminate all of the competitors, leaving even one would mean his own defeat.

Jon Ludi’s battleship couldn’t withstand the might of the heavens and the earth, and what’s more, entwined within the vortex were the ice spikes that Jannie had recently conjured, which turned the whirlpool into a meat grinder, pulverizing his fleet along with the pirates inside.

The Watcher, bearing the Feather of the Sea God, was unafraid of wind and wave, but couldn’t withstand the barrage of ice spikes and the wreckage of Jon Ludi’s hundreds of pirate ships in the vortex, and soon, their ship was also smashed.

One by one, the names on the personal leaderboard for the top ten disappeared, others took their place, and then, they too were gone…

As the top candidates were gradually taken out, Duge inherited their attributes, and the life force depleted by the Sea God Scepter was replenished.

Duge was ecstatic—using the opponent’s attributes against them, the rules of the simulation field for killing and inheriting attributes were damn sensible; initially, when he began using the Sea God Scepter, he was worried he wouldn’t make it!

Losing Dyson to help her transform her magic power, Jannie could barely sustain such powerful magic with only the small amount of magic power leaking from the loosened seal. Her face carried a hint of unwillingness as her body was quickly torn apart by various fragments!

The moment Jannie’s body was shredded.

A hand suddenly appeared beside Duge, gripping the Sea God Scepter at the same time as him.

Immediately afterward.

An arm appeared, a shoulder appeared… a completely naked and brand-new Jannie coalesced from the air bit by bit, as holy as an Angel.

She held the Sea God Scepter, but the next second, she frowned: “Why can’t I mobilize the Divine Power within it?”

Private property—how could you simply use it as you please?

On the personal panel, among the top ten rankings, Jannie’s name had already disappeared, replaced by a strange name.

So.

This one is the real Jannie!

Restoring her Sea God’s Power, the simulation field concluded!

Duge looked at the Jannie in front of him and smiled, “Because it’s the Fish Era! Jannie, add the name of a sea fish after yours, let me touch it once more, and you will be able to wield the Sea God Scepter.”

“Do you have a death wish? I am not that worthless exam candidate…” Jannie said angrily.

“All right, suit yourself; you can even kill me. If you can use the Sea God Scepter, then I lose,” Duge said with a smile, letting go of the Sea God Scepter. His hair had almost turned completely white, and he looked utterly exhausted. Continuing to use the Sea God Scepter would probably drain him dry.

Luckily, his spirits were still good.

Perhaps because the commotion was too great, the simulation field awarded him an additional 200 spiritual power.

Without the influence of the Sea God Scepter, the surface of the sea became calm again.

The wave buoying Duge sank, and he fell onto the ocean surface, Enke ran over and propped him up in time. He simply lay on Enke’s back, quietly admiring the enchanting goddess in the sky.

It must be said.

From this angle, Jannie’s figure was quite impressive, a pity that her legs were pressed too tightly together.

If Duge weren’t a gentleman, at this moment he would have whistled without fail.

Finally.

Jannie, who had been contending with the Sea God Scepter in the sky for a long time, descended. She looked at Duge with a dark face: “Do I have to change my name?”

“Yes,” Duge replied, nodding with a smile, “It’s the Fish Era! Haven’t you seen the fish character on the Scepter? That’s the symbol of the Fish Era…”

“Jannie Butterflyfish,” Jannie’s face suddenly flushed red, she closed her eyes and revealed her new name, and then, she extended her arm, “Touch it!”

Duge smiled, ran his hand over Jannie’s arm, “I authorize you to use my Sea God Scepter.”

The next second.

The Sea God Scepter radiated a golden glow, and Jannie was bathed in the golden light.

Not just Jannie, the once-aged Duge was rapidly regaining his strength under the golden light; soon his physical condition surpassed what it had been when he first used the Sea God Scepter, and even his soul felt much more consolidated, as if some mysterious force had emerged within him.

Jannie saw the change in Duge and widened her eyes in surprise, “Why, why can you also receive the infusion of the Sea God’s Power?”

Muddy Water Touch Fish!

The greatest beneficiary?

But the simulation field is ending, what use is Divine Power for me now…

Duge quickly understood the reason. He looked at Jannie and shrugged with a smile, “I don’t know, maybe I truly am the reincarnation of the Sea God!”

“Father?” Jannie’s eyes widened in disbelief, the next second, her body was enveloped in a layer of sky-blue dress, covering her up tightly, and a blush inexplicably flitted across her face.

About five minutes later, the golden light faded.

Jannie looked at Duge with a complex expression.

At this moment, Duge felt almost fused with the ocean, as if he could stir up giant waves with a mere gesture. If he had such Divine Power from the beginning, who could have been his rival?

He never expected that in the end, he would become a Sea God just like Jannie!

Alas!

It was too late.

Duge sighed and looked at the flickering personal panel, stretching out his hand to click: “Assessment concluded, simulation field closing, current candidate, rank first.”
