Chapter 829 - 189: Entering the Central Sea Area
"Garuda."
Han Zhan continued using this name.
Because he felt that this name perfectly matched his vision for an Overlord Level unit.
That’s right, "Garuda" would be an existence surpassing sea legends, becoming the unique Sea Tyrant!
It was destined to leave a bold and magnificent mark in Water Planet’s history.
Han Zhan’s confidence arose from the introduction of "Garuda’s" attributes:
"Garuda (Warship · Special Modification · Sea Fortress · Unique)"
"A sea fortress crafted from Thousand-Year Holy Heart Oak, possessing special abilities unimaginable to other warships."
"Ability One: Sacred Heart. The crew of ’Garuda’ will never worry about low Spiritual Value, as being on ’Garuda’ restores 5 Spiritual Value per second. When Spiritual Value drops to zero, it will additionally restore all Spiritual Value once."
"Ability Two: Golden Phase. ’Garuda’s’ hull is entirely made from Thousand-Year Holy Heart Oak, greatly enhancing intrinsic durability, increasing defense by 500%, reducing damage by 80%, and increasing dodge effects against Special Shells by 50%."
"Ability Three: Flesh Body. ’Garuda’ is immune to the first three attacks received and can slowly self-repair damaged areas of the hull."
"Ability Four: Nirvana. When ’Garuda’ is completely destroyed, it can trigger a Nirvana effect, restoring to its peak state."
"Ability Five: Zh Nu. The cannons fired from ’Garuda’ have a 500% power increase, with a 10% chance to trigger a 1000% increase effect for 10 seconds."
"Ability Six: Immovable. When ’Garuda’ is stationary on the sea, it can generate a ’Resurrection Radiance’ effect, restoring 10 Health Value per second to friendly units within a 1,000-meter range."
"Ability Seven: Divine Bird. When ’Garuda’ sails at sea, its speed is increased by 500%, and sea waves are reduced by 50%. If the Wind Element exists in the sea area, the effect doubles."
A total of seven abilities!
Simply put, it’s absurd.
When Jian Beifang saw these seven abilities, his mouth gaped wide, so shocked he could swallow an elephant.
This wasn’t a game bug, nor was it number inflation, but rather the result of the rules.
The Thousand-Year Holy Heart Oak, as the unique Divine Level material on Water Planet, inevitably creates extraordinary warships.
And under Shang Siteng’s Heaven’s Origin Power replication, it consumed materials equivalent to a hundred times the original Thousand-Year Holy Heart Oak.
The effects brought by such material consumption are naturally terrifying.
With these seven abilities, "Garuda’s" title as a sea Overlord Level unit is utterly well-deserved.
Even in the Central Sea Area, it can move unimpeded.
But, did you think that’s it?
"You must have seen those sixty-nine cannon ports when you were by the shore, right?" Han Zhan said as he led Jian Beifang to "Garuda’s" cannon room.
"Garuda’s" cannon room was meticulously considered, designed, and crafted by Shang Siteng.
The number 69 also carries special significance.
Sixty-nine enormous cannons [Imperial Dawn], were placed in the cannon room.
On "Garuda," there are only twenty-three Unparalleled Cannon Princesses, so theoretically, only twenty-three cannons would be needed.
However, because [Imperial Dawn] has a forced cooldown, meaning a 30s silent period.
To smoothly transition through this period, Shang Siteng designed this cannon room.
The cannon room is divided into upper, middle, and lower layers. After firing in each layer, the device under the Unparalleled Cannon Princesses automatically moves them to the second layer, then to the third layer...
Along with the time to reload, it’s just right to smooth over this 30s forced cooldown period and complete the cycle!
After Han Zhan’s introduction, when Jian Beifang saw the enormous cannons [Imperial Dawn], renowned for bankrupting a faction just to build one, there were a full sixty-nine on "Garuda."
He was completely stunned.
Suddenly, Jian Beifang had this thought.
If he didn’t go to devour those Elemental Cores, nor needed to restore his strength to peak state, he just needed Han Zhan to pilot his "Garuda," to take a spin around the Central Sea Area.
Surely... there wouldn’t be any resistance, would there?
Who could possibly be his opponent?!
Then, Han Zhan proceeded to show Jian Beifang various rare and special Ballast Stones, and those Treasure Sword and Armor items found in garbage heaps.
Jian Beifang had always known of their existence.
But he never had the ability to purify Evil Curses before, so in the end, he could only let the pearls remain in the dust.
Only someone as extraordinarily absurd as Han Zhan could one hundred percent purify Evil Curses, which again is a bug-level ability.
When all the bugs gather together, shock eventually turns into numbness.
After viewing Han Zhan’s "Garuda," returning to his own "Gray Sparrow," Jian Beifang suddenly felt that it was no longer appealing.
Back to the point.
Han Zhan had completed the construction and combat enhancement of "Garuda," and Jian Beifang also regained ninety percent of his peak strength.
Their extraordinary encounters within the Turtle’s body were coming to an end.
The young boy Ji Mu emerged from the house, glanced at Han Zhan, then spoke to Jian Beifang:
"Half a day remains."
"As per your request, the Turtle will deliver you to the Central Sea Area."
"Once you enter the Central Sea Area, the main quest of Water Planet will immediately activate upon the four kings assembling."
"Are you prepared?"
As Ji Mu spoke, his gaze flickered over to the sea fortress quietly anchored at sea, resembling a giant whale, and he felt his eyelids twitch.
He felt like he had asked too much.
"If you clear it this time, will you return?"
Ji Mu paused, then looked back at Jian Beifang, asking.
Jian Beifang didn’t speak, only removed his black broad-brimmed hat and gently placed it on the boy’s head.
The broad-brimmed hat obscured Ji Mu’s vision.
By the time he raised his head again, Jian Beifang’s figure had vanished from the "Gray Sparrow."
Leaving behind only a promise.
"If I clear it this time, I won’t leave."
Hearing Jian Beifang’s promise, Ji Mu finally smiled.
...
Under the sea on the Water Planet.
The Turtle was swiftly weaving through the depths of the ocean.
Finally, at a certain point in time, it crashed into an invisible air wall.
Here, the ocean’s color deepened significantly, torrential rain poured down relentlessly, never stopping or letting up.
Countless bones, ship fragments, broken swords, and items lay buried in the depths, shrouded in black-green seaweed.
The Turtle began to ascend.
Half an hour later, it finally saw the ever-rising sea surface, opened its mouth, and expelled a torrent of water.
Along with the ejected water came a ship, and a massive fortress-like sea behemoth.
Entering, Central Sea Area!
