Worldwide Survival: Begins As An Island Owner - Chapter 89

89 A Pod of Mermen

“Leader, we have already checked. There are no powerful sea creatures or any of those damned predators nearby. In addition, the food resources here are very abundant.”

After the elite merman on the throne asked, the two patrolling mermen before him immediately replied.

“Very good, you may leave. Tell everyone to remain cautious, don’t let down their guard.” When he heard that there was no nearby threat to the pod, the elite merman on the throne heaved a sigh of relief.

As a member of humanoid sea creature species, their intelligence was not much different from ordinary humans.

!!
Under normal circumstances, a mere Black Iron Rank elite merman could not become the leader of a small merman pod.

But they were in the novice sea area. Therefore this pod of mermen, which only had twenty or so mermen, had an elite merman as their leader.

Then, as the merman sat on the stone throne, he fell into deep thought when he saw his subordinates leave the hall.

As the leader of the pod, there were many things Jiao Gang had to consider. First of all, he had to consider the survival of the pod. Then, there was the matter of the reproduction and growth of the pod, as well as food and enemies. These all needed to be considered.

However, Jiao Gang did not know that he probably did not need to think about these matters later. This was because an uninvited guest was approaching at an extremely fast speed.

At this moment, Su Yu was completely relying on his feelings. He completely depended on luck.

As Su Yu got closer and closer to the small pod, the feeling in Su Yu’s heart became stronger and stronger. It was as if a small opportunity was waiting for him.

Su Yu swam towards the merman pod at full speed.

When the first lucky card’s strength was exhausted, some simple stone houses appeared in front of Su Yu.

Physique: 6

“Is this a pod of mermen?” Looking at the few mermen outside the nearby stone architecture, Su Yu could not help but feel surprised.

Originally, Su Yu thought that he would encounter some special-type black iron treasure chest. He did not expect to encounter a small pod of mermen.

After taking a few casual glances, Su Yu sped up and swam over.

As Su Yu approached rapidly, the two mermen in charge of patrolling also noticed him.

Immediately, the two patrolling mermen sent out a special warning signal in the water to warn the other mermen in the pod.

As for Jiao Gang, it was still sitting on the throne in the hall. It could not help but tremble when it heard the warning signal.

Jiao Gang did not expect that a warning would be sounded.

“What’s going on now? Didn’t they just say that there are no powerful sea creatures or predators that can threaten the pod?”

At this moment, Jiao Gang did not have time to think. He swam out of the hall at an extremely fast speed and towards the direction of the warning signal.

Su Yu stopped near this pod of mermen curiously. He did not barge in directly…

To Su Yu, these ordinary mermen were not dangerous at all.

Su Yu had already cultivated the Black Iron Body of the Indestructible Golden Body Technique to perfection. His physique and strength had increased greatly.

Even if he stood on the spot and let the group of mermen charge at him with their stone spears, it wouldn’t affect him at all. The other party’s attack would not be able to break through Su Yu’s defense at all.

The ordinary mermen in charge of patrolling looked at Su Yu nervously.

Then, mermen of all sizes – including their leader Jiao Gang – appeared in front of Su Yu.

The moment Jiao Gang saw Su Yu, he could not help but feel a chill in his heart.

This was because in Jiao Gang’s memories, a human who could be so relaxed in the water was not an existence that a small pod like theirs could contend with!

It had to be said that the first thing an intelligent lifeform would do when they encountered such a situation was not to rush forward and fight to the death with the other party. Instead, they would first think about whether they could defeat the other party.

“Lord Human, may I know why you have come to visit us?”

Seeing that the other party had no intention of attacking directly, Jiao Gang tactfully used its spiritual power to ask this question respectfully.

[Black Iron Elite Merman]

Strength: 20

Physique: 23

Spirit: 19

Weapons: Refined Iron Spear

Skill:

Ordinary Merman’s Howl (A merman who is in danger can let out an ear-piercing scream to attack the enemy).

Black Iron Spear Throw (Elite mermen can muster up their strength to throw spears rapidly to attack the enemy.)

Overall Combat Rating: Black Iron Rank 2 – Black Iron Rank 4.

“This guy seems to know something.” Su Yu glanced at the stats of the elite merman. He was almost twice the size of the other nearby mermen. Hearing the thoughts that the other party sent to him, Su Yu had some guesses.

While Su Yu was thinking, Jiao Gang was holding the refined iron spear in his hand tightly. His eyes were fixed on Su Yu. He did not dare to let his guard down at all.

Before their leader gave the order, the group of ordinary mermen following behind Jiao Gang also did not dare to act rashly.

“Forget it. We’ll know after invading his mental space.”

When this thought appeared in Su Yu’s mind, he acted quickly.

In an instant, extremely powerful illusory power and terrifying spiritual power invaded the mermen’s spiritual thoughts.

Ordinary mermen had no chance of resisting this strength, Su Yu directly gained insight on their fragmented memories.

On the other hand, Jiao Gang’s resistance was much stronger. However, Su Yu’s power was incomparably domineering. If Jiao Gang’s spiritual power was much weaker than Su Yu’s, resisting would only cause him more suffering. It would be completely useless.

At this moment, in Jiao Gang’s spiritual world, he was tied to an iron pillar. There were all kinds of torture tools beside him.

Su Yu used the power of the Illusion God Eye with much creativity. Not only did he refer to the illusion techniques that he had seen in anime, but he also referred to the 18 levels of hell.
