Chapter 752: 239. Underwater Body Forging_3

At the end of the letter, Selena asked Noland Lee if he had any thoughts about joining the Deep Sea Branch’s fleet and going to provide support together.

If Noland Lee planned to do so, then he should immediately head to the Core Circle after receiving the letter. The support fleet would set off 10 minutes later.

The underwater support fleet would be able to reach the scene in approximately 1 hour.

Noland Lee read the letter carefully, making sure he didn’t read anything wrong.

The support fleet truly would arrive at the scene within 1 hour.

“Oh…so, the Deep Sea Branch really is proficient in the field of the deep sea. They somehow managed to master a way to move underwater at a speed of 200 kilometers per hour.”

Noland Lee pondered:

“The consumption of deep-sea magic energy for this method must be huge. The stranded oceanic fleet probably paid a hefty price to get the Deep Sea Branch to use this underwater movement method.”

“Setting off with the support fleet from the Deep Sea Branch would save me the trouble of rushing, but it would also hinder my sweep of the enemies, and take away the spoils of war that I could fully intercept on my own. Moreover, it feels like I’m working for the Deep Sea Branch.”

“If I want to take in a huge haul, leave effortlessly, or gather information about pirates, then I must arrive at the scene faster than the support fleet. Do I have any spells or items on hand that could allow me to travel quickly underwater?”

Noland Lee opened his magic list to check.

Unbelievably, there was one.

Or, to be precise, there were two.

These two were:

“Sea Monster Transformation Technique” and “Water Walking Technique.”

Activate the “Sea Monster Transformation Technique” to enter the sea monster form.

Cast “Deep Sea Swimming” without any consumption, reducing the resistance in the sea water.

Paired with a flexible snake tail, one could swim at high speed underwater.

The actual speed would depend on how fast Noland Lee could move his waist and snake tail after transforming into a sea monster.

“Water Walking Technique” is the deep-sea “Flight Spell,” applicable to both freshwater and seawater environments. It is a deep-sea spell and also a water spell.

Similar to flight spells, its upgraded effect is to improve movement speed.

The only difference is that the “Water Walking Technique” can only be used in water.

Noland Lee estimated his underwater movement speed and upgrading cost.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, sensing an opportunity.

Perhaps he could use the 100-level “Water Walking Technique” to arrive at the scene ahead of time.

However, the problem is, how to explain his ability to travel quickly underwater in the deep sea if he gets recognized later?

If Selena found out he had learned the deep-sea spell, Noland Lee would have to wrack his brain to explain the source of the spell blueprint.

Noland Lee pondered for a moment.

He suddenly raised an eyebrow and snapped his fingers.

“Ah~right~I don’t really have to worry about that. I can just make a magic ring enchanted with the ‘Water Walking Technique’ to cover up the fact that I’ve mastered the spell. If Selena asks, I can just blame it on the magic ring.”

Noland Lee decided in his heart, put away the magic fog device, dispersed the fog, and cast “Death Flight” to fly towards the nearest magic ocean current.

The gathering of offerings by the Sirens Kingdom was a dangerous event fraught with violence and instability for ordinary wizard forces.

But Noland Lee saw it as a great opportunity to collect soul fragments, gold coins, and Energy Points.

He was determined to take advantage of the excitement tonight.
