Chapter 840 - 200: The Rain Has Stopped
"Become a BOSS unit of the Water Planet?"
The scene returned to that stormy night at Saint-Teres Port.
Upon hearing Han Zhan’s wish, the astonishment on Jian Beifang’s face was unmistakable.
According to the rules of wishing, one cannot make a wish beyond its capability.
Strictly speaking, Han Zhan’s wish wasn’t difficult to fulfill.
"But why do you want to become a BOSS unit of the Water Planet?" Jian Beifang asked puzzled.
Han Zhan shook his head.
"Not the kind of NPC role BOSS you imagine."
"What I want to become is similar to the series of sea BOSSes like the Swallowing Whale and the Vulture that we saw before, or in gaming terms, the ’World BOSS’."
"World BOSS?" Jian Beifang still didn’t quite understand.
Han Zhan didn’t explain further.
In fact, what he really wanted to do was to obtain the "BOSS panel" in the Water Planet virtual game world.
What’s the difference between the BOSS panel and the adventurer panel?
As an adventurer, one must adhere to the rules of the Water Planet, using "ships" as combat units to engage in naval battles.
However, the world BOSS on the Water Planet is not only less constrained by the planet’s rules but also not bound to ships, allowing them to display their individual talent abilities.
This is the real reason why Han Zhan wants to become a BOSS unit!
Finally, under Jian Beifang’s wishing, he successfully obtained the item he desired.
It was a golden game coin.
"Item Name: GM’s Destiny Coin"
"Item Function: Can be used on a designated target to change its underlying module in the Water Planet, with currently changeable options including (Adventurer Module, NPC Module, World BOSS Module)."
"Note 1: This item can only change the underlying module, with no other alterations."
"Note 2: This is a one-time use item, which will be destroyed immediately upon use."
"Note 3: The module change by this item only lasts 2 hours, after which, the module reverts to its original state."
"Item Introduction: Can it really change destiny?"
From the destiny coin’s introduction, using the item can change identity, but it can’t change the user’s actual strength.
Changing into a world BOSS does not mean being able to slaughter like a world BOSS; talent remains personal talent, level remains personal level, none of these will change.
Moreover, the coin obtained through wishing is a one-time-use item, usable only once.
Changing the underlying module is not permanent, having only a two-hour duration.
Jian Beifang handed this golden game coin to Han Zhan, asking the same as the item introduction.
"Can it really change destiny?"
Han Zhan remained silent for a while, giving his response:
"Destiny will always be in one’s own hands."
...
End of flashback, switch to reality.
As Han Zhan walked towards the bow of the "Garuda,"
he extended his right hand and gently flicked his thumb.
A golden game coin was flicked into the air.
At the moment the golden game coin disappeared,
Han Zhan’s personal panel suddenly changed.
"Captain of Garuda · Han Zhan (Sea Tyrant · Great Xia Leader · Divine Weapon Contractor · Unique)"
"Level 99."
The talent introduction of the adventurer module disappeared.
Replaced by a world BOSS introduction identical to Jormungandr!
This meant that the rules of the Water Planet virtual game world had changed for him.
At this moment,
Han Zhan gently closed his eyes.
He extended his arms, feeling the rich spiritual power of the world.
Like an insatiable abyss, his body frantically devoured the spiritual power, which gathered densely around him, making the air grow thick.
Han Zhan’s momentum soared.
The long-lost talent, the long-lost power, was reviving within him!
Jormungandr raised its head, shattering the overcast sky as it once again rushed towards the "Garuda"!
A terrifying whooshing sound echoed.
The gaping bloody maw overshadowed the entire sky.
Compared to it,
the "Garuda" looked more like an insignificant peanut, ready to be crushed!
At this critical moment,
a dazzlingly bright sword light erupted brilliantly in the Water Planet World!
A golden blade, the size of Jormungandr’s head, cleaved upward, slashing fiercely at Jormungandr’s head.
Instantly, the scales covering the snake head, thicker than a planet’s crust, were blown off in all directions.
The shocking golden blade cut into the flesh, hacking off a piece of meat!
The blood of the Dust World Serpent splashed across the sea surface.
In an instant, the entire sea turned an ominous black-purple color.
The severed mass of flesh heavily hit the water, causing towering waves to surge from the point of impact.
The "Garuda" rose and fell amidst the giant waves, as the eyes of the contracted spirit girls locked onto the silhouette in the sky, their emotions mirroring its rise and fall.
That silhouette standing between the "Garuda" and Jormungandr.
That was Han Zhan, the Great Xia Spirit Contract Master at his peak!
Jormungandr, struck by the unexpected sword slash, had disbelief in its eyes.
It seemed unable to believe that the previous slash was caused by this tiny human.
In pain, it let out an enraged, frantic roar.
The roar echoed like doomsday thunder across the Water Planet.
In furious madness, Jormungandr wrangled its enormous body around the Water Planet, which it now vigorously twisted.
The terrifying power of the snake body burst forth instantly.
The underwater terrain of the Water Planet suddenly split into numerous ravines.
In each ravine, red-hot core magma flowed, spewing forth endlessly.
The entire Water Planet, like a toy, was on the brink of being crushed by Jormungandr!
Facing the raging Dust World Serpent Jormungandr, there was no fear in Han Zhan’s eyes.
He had seen the Primordial True Insect [Silence]; a Dust World Serpent weakened below the divine is far from awe-inspiring.
"The experience lasts for only two hours," Han Zhan murmured, "then I’ll slay you within these two hours."
As he finished speaking, golden divine flames flared in his eyes.
When Jormungandr saw those two flames, its colossal body, akin to a world, trembled uncontrollably twice.
It was afraid.
It foresaw its own demise.
This absurd feeling seemed like humiliation, causing it to lift its head high again, diving into the clouds, and accelerating downward.
It was determined to crush and devour this human!
Facing the gigantic snake shadow that enveloped the sky, Han Zhan stood aloft, a golden sun dial pattern forming beneath his feet.
As the sun dial spun, everything within the frame became exceedingly slow.
Seven ancient divine soldiers transformed into different lights, converging into the sword in his hand.
The entire universe, for that moment, fell into silence.
Only Han Zhan’s voice echoed in the ears of every living being on the Water Planet.
"Sword Skill, Severed Realm!"
In the next second,
The dawn broke, the overcast clouds dispersed.
The dim Water Planet World gained a different hue.
For the rain had stopped.
