#207 - Chapter 207: Sea of Despair, Poseidon (Part 2)
"Do you have any information?" Jiang Han asked.
"Of course."
Perhaps out of boredom, or perhaps because he unexpectedly found this blockhead agreeable, the scarred-face youth patiently said, "Leaving aside the fact that the Isle of Divine Grace is inherently dangerous, the chances of a level sixty individual like yourself surviving alone are slim."
"Recently, the Isle of Divine Grace has been experiencing frequent riots, with bizarre creatures appearing in swarms, acting as if they've gone mad."
"This poses a significant threat not only to you but also to us."
"Gone mad? And in swarms?"
Jiang Han's eyes lit up.
If you're going to talk about this, then I'm all ears!
"Yes."
The scarred-face youth nodded, "Anyway, the situation on the island is very complex, and it can't be explained in a few words. You just need to know that a level sixty individual like yourself will definitely not return if you encounter these terrifying creatures."
"Moreover…"
As he spoke, his tone turned grave, "Even the creatures in the nearby waters have been affected, greatly increasing the risk of being attacked on the way."
"So, you're saying that both the Isle of Divine Grace and the surrounding creatures seem to have undergone some kind of mutation?" Jiang Han continued to ask, "How long has this been going on?"
The scarred-face youth pondered for a moment and said, "Not long, judging from the news, probably less than half a month, or even shorter."
"Half a month?"
Jiang Han was thoughtful.
The change in the creatures' behavior originally made him think it might be related to the inter-realm battlefield, but now it seems that's not the case.
The timing doesn't match up.
And the only major event within the past half-month seems to be the gray fog near Water Moon City.
Could it be related to this?
Or is it just a coincidence, and the source is still on the Isle of Divine Grace?
"Don't worry, it's not as mysterious as it sounds. After all, the Sea God is a warship from ancient times, very sturdy."
Seeing Jiang Han's silence, the scarred-face youth thought he was frightened by the news and comforted him, "What you need to consider is the danger of the Isle of Divine Grace."
"However, I still advise you to get off the ship as soon as possible; that's the best way out."
"It's good for young people to be ambitious. I wasn't afraid of anything back then either, so I rashly landed on the island, and the result…"
A trace of recollection and fear flashed in his eyes, "I almost died on the island. If I hadn't been lucky, I wouldn't have the chance to stand here and talk to you now."
"The waters here are deep; you can't handle it."
"Thanks," Jiang Han just smiled faintly, "I'll consider it."
"Do it as soon as possible. In at most an hour, the Sea God will set sail, and then you won't be able to get off the ship even if you want to," the scarred-face youth said, "By the way, I'm Enzo. If there's anything you don't understand, feel free to ask me."
"What about you? What's your name?"
Jiang Han smiled faintly: "Ye Han."
"…"
The air suddenly became silent.
Only the seagulls circling in the sky occasionally made cries.
"Ye… Ye Han?"
The fatty was obviously the most impatient, stuttering, "Are… Are you the Ye Han I'm thinking of? Viscount Ye Han?"
"It's me. Thank you for the information."
"See you again if fate wills it."
Jiang Han smiled, then turned and walked towards the resting area.
Leaving the three members of the Sea Snail Mercenary Corps staring at each other, stunned in place.
"This, this, this…"
The scarred-face youth was completely dumbfounded, his mind buzzing.
He never imagined that the "blockhead" he was painstakingly educating was actually Ye Han?
That ruthless person who single-handedly collapsed the inter-realm battlefield?
"Damn! No wonder he dared to go to the Isle of Divine Grace alone; it turns out he's the real big shot."
The scarred-face youth smiled wryly. Recalling his earlier lectures, he was so embarrassed that his toes were digging out a three-bedroom apartment on the ground, wishing he could find a crack to jump into.
"There's going to be a good show on the Isle of Divine Grace this time."
The tall, thin youth, who hadn't spoken all along, couldn't help but sigh.
The events on the inter-realm battlefield have now spread like wildfire throughout the Dragon Phoenix Empire, from high-ranking officials to common vendors, everyone is treating it as after-dinner gossip.
Many details have also been revealed.
For example, Viscount Ye Han possesses two incredibly powerful pets, one of which is a Divine Phoenix, controlling golden divine fire. Its group attack ability is simply ridiculously overpowered, even surpassing Divine-level experts.
The collapse of the inter-realm battlefield was also related to this.
And now, such a divine figure is going to the Isle of Divine Grace.
The current Isle of Divine Grace.
Bizarre creatures are going mad in swarms.
Hmm…
In swarms.
Wouldn't they be burned into skewers?
"Damn, damn! This is too big! Maybe we can also pick up some scraps behind the big shot!"
Immediately, the scarred-face youth realized something, his face full of excitement.
He had heard that when the inter-realm battlefield collapsed, there were dark gold equipment everywhere. Many people made a fortune because of it, not only did their strength increase rapidly, but selling the equipment also made them rich.
And now, the opportunity has come!
If they could replicate that miracle once, who would bother collecting wood spirit crystals!
"Let's go, let's go! Following behind the big shot, even if we can't build a good relationship, as long as we can follow him from afar, maybe we can get enough soup to burst!"
The scarred-face youth was extremely decisive, directly leading the other two to quickly catch up with Jiang Han.
"Lord Ye Han! Please stop!"
Soon, the three hurriedly caught up with Jiang Han.
"What's the matter?" Jiang Han paused.
"It's like this…"
The scarred-face youth quickly explained his intentions.
"Following me is fine, but after arriving at the Isle of Divine Grace, you can't."
Jiang Han didn't refuse; he indeed knew little about the Isle of Divine Grace.
He had originally planned to find the official personnel in charge of operating the Sea God to inquire about information, but since Enzo and the others took the initiative to volunteer, it saved him the trouble.
Anyway, it doesn't matter who provides the information, does it?
Jiang Han didn't care.
Moreover, he actually had a decent impression of Enzo and the others; after all, they had kindly given him advice the first time they met, which was rare.
"Okay, we understand."
Enzo and the fatty exchanged glances, able to see the excitement in each other's eyes.
This heaven-sent wealth can be considered grasped!
After that, the few casually found a place to chat, mainly discussing information about the Isle of Divine Grace.
Such as which indigenous people are on the island, which special areas, etc.
Jiang Han also gained a lot.
At least he could exclude several places that he originally thought were in line with the guidance of [Supreme Gift].
……
Time passed.
The journey was unexpectedly long, another five days passed.
The Sea God maintained high speed on the sea.
The originally calm sea, the front suddenly became dim.
Finally, close to the Despair Sea.
