Chapter 499 - 321: Landing (Part 3)
Like a solid barrier, it kept the raging wind, giant waves, and monster attacks at bay.
...
The gigantic monsters crashed against the protective shield!
Yet could only leave temporary ripples on its surface.
The howling wind tried to break through the shield’s confines, to no avail.
The ship, under the protection of the shield, slowly approached the island.
Lin Lang watched the scene and nodded slightly, a hint of acknowledgment for Dean and Millian’s methods in his heart.
He quietly harnessed his own power, ready to deal with any unforeseen circumstances.
And other experts, like Tono Taro, Zou Zhiruo, and others!
Also stood vigilantly at the edge of the shield, watching the monsters outside with caution.
Should the shield show any weakness, they would strike without hesitation.
With everyone’s joint efforts!
The ship proceeded with difficulty through the perilous waters.
Step by step towards the mysterious island!
...
"We’re almost ashore!"
Seeing the rocky shore clearly visible, the dawn of victory seemed right in front of them!
Everyone felt a glimmer of hope, and their tense moods slightly relaxed.
But just at that moment!
A massive undercurrent suddenly surged beneath the calm sea!
Immediately afterwards!
A huge shadow slowly rose from the deep sea—
Accompanied by a thunderous roar!
An unprecedentedly terrifying monster broke the surface!
Its body was as enormous as a mountain, with dark purple skin covered in fierce scales!
Its huge eyes glimmered with a ghostly green light, as if they could see through one’s soul.
It opened its massive maw, revealing two rows of dagger-like sharp teeth, each over half a meter long!
The monster swung its gigantic claw, and with just one strike, it effortlessly shattered the ship’s protective shield.
As the shield shattered, radiance burst forth.
Immediately thereafter!
The monster’s claw struck heavily upon the ship again.
With a thunderous "boom"!
The ship was instantly torn apart, planks and debris flying everywhere!
...
At this critical moment!
Dean and several other masters reacted swiftly—
A powerful gust of air erupted around Dean, sweeping up Millian!
Clad in a billowing black robe, he soared skyward like an eagle taking flight!
The two of them spun in midair!
Then landed steadily on the rocky shore.
...
"Hurricane Blade!"
Tono Taro’s eyes were cold as he unsheathed the Samurai Sword in his hand, the blade glinting frostily!
He leaped into the air!
His form seemed to transform into a raging wind!
Breaking through the waves!
...
Zou Zhiruo and Wang Tiezhu collaborated—
Zou Zhiruo sprinted!
Stepping onto Wang Tiezhu’s palm, using it to propel herself, she leapt across the waves!
Then Wang Tiezhu stepped back a few paces, and after a sprint, took a giant leap across!
...
However!
Not everyone possessed such ability and luck—
Many were flung into the sea in panic as the ship shattered.
The turbulent waves quickly submerged them, their cries and pleas drowned by the roar of the sea.
Debris floated on the water’s surface, while some in the water frantically struggled, trying to grasp onto anything that might save them.
...
Yet at that moment!
Lin Lang’s gaze sharpened, his aura suddenly escalating—
He swung his arms forcefully, a powerful force surged through the seawater like a torrential undercurrent!
The chaotic waves seemed to be controlled by an invisible giant hand, instantly changing direction, forming a massive wave!
It swept towards those struggling in the sea—
The wave, like a gigantic arm, gently yet powerfully lifted those desperately floundering in the water, pushing them towards the island’s shore!
Under the influence of this power, people were swiftly carried to safety like leaves in the wind.
Lin Lang, accompanied by Xina and Natalia, flew onto the shore.
However, fate is always cruel—
In the midst of this chaos!
Some unlucky individuals were struck by the ship’s debris.
They let out a scream, but were mercilessly swept into the water, disappearing without a trace.
Yet Lin Lang only frowned slightly, not dwelling on it or giving it much thought—
This adventure was inherently fraught with unknown dangers.
Those who chose to board this ship and come to this place should have been aware of the risks involved.
Since they chose this dangerous path, even "running to their deaths," they needed to bear the corresponding consequences!
Lin Lang’s intervention just now was merely incidental, he had no intention of saving everyone.
In his view, their lives and deaths were not closely linked to him.
...
The group, narrowly escaping danger, gathered together on the shore, relieved, reflecting on the perilous moments just passed.
Some joined their hands in prayer, murmuring their gratitude for divine protection.
Others were pale, their legs still trembling slightly, clearly not fully recovered from the fear.
"Oh heavens, that was so close, almost buried at sea,"
A young man said with lingering fear, his voice still trembling slightly.
"Yes, luckily, a wave came out of nowhere,"
A woman beside him echoed, her eyes full of relief.
However!
At that moment!
A strange, purple-glowing, venomous insect suddenly burst out from the sand!
