God Simulator

Chapter 92: Arrest on the spot

Since we are in the water, the Lord of the Deep Sea is the main force in this operation.

Lu Yao switched to manual mode and clicked on the "Dive" ability with the mouse.

The island-shaped Guer slowly submerged into the water, and its speed doubled, becoming visibly swift.

Under Lu Yao’s control, the Lord of the Deep Sea headed west, continuously advancing in the blue and white pixelated ocean.

Not long after leaving the western continent, it quickly encountered bone fish.

These fish made up of skeletons swarmed up from the deep sea, crazily crashing into Guer.

However, their attacks were too weak. As the speed of the Lord of the Deep Sea increased, "miss" continuously appeared above its head, and occasionally, when it was hit, it showed as -0.

This reminded Lu Yao of a time when he went to broaden his horizons with his classmates.

In a foot bath shop in the city, he experienced fish therapy for the first time. A group of toothless small fish nibbled on the dead skin on his feet in the water, giving a tingling sensation.

Guer was like a huge and heavy icebreaker under the sea. It passed through the numerous bone fish, waving its huge tentacles and crushing all the bone fish along the way, advancing westward unimpeded...

In the depths of the western sea, a small landmass appeared on the surface of the water.

This continent was entirely made up of bones - or rather, the bone fish were connected to form it, like numerous small building blocks. The size of the floating island continued to grow, with more bones growing from the edges.

From Lu Yao’s perspective, the bone island looked like a large patch of white seaweed on the sea surface.

As the Lord of the Deep Sea approached, the entire bone island suddenly boiled.

Its body slowly transformed, growing large dorsal and pectoral fins, and its robust tail swayed slowly, revealing a leaf-shaped caudal fin underneath.

The entire bone island turned into a gigantic creature, even larger than the Lord of the Deep Sea.

Its name appeared above its head: "Skeleton Overlord Whale."

Lu Yao clicked on its panel.

...

Compared to the Lord of the Deep Sea, the Skeleton Overlord Whale was on a completely different level according to the data panel.

However, its unique ability, "Whale Fall," made Lu Yao cautious.

This was an escape skill.

With a little carelessness, the Skeleton Overlord Whale could quickly disintegrate and escape.

It was a troublesome matter.

In order not to scare away the Skeleton Overlord Whale, Lu Yao controlled the Lord of the Deep Sea to maneuver and pretend to have a back-and-forth stance.

The Skeleton Overlord Whale unleashed the "Deep Sea Impact," causing layers of tsunami waves, trapping Guer within and continuously inflicting -5 damage on its head. From the scene, it seemed to be the attacking side.

Suddenly, a dialogue box popped up above the whale’s head.

"Unknown sea monster, the Skeleton God has descended upon this shattered world, and it is time to recruit followers."

"I acknowledge your strength. As long as you are willing to submit to the divine will, I will request the great Skeleton God to allow you to become a glorious apostle and join the great cause of the divine."

Lu Yao was a little surprised.

He didn’t expect this turn of events.

The Skeleton God, a god who crossed over from another domain?

Lu Yao became extremely cautious.

At the same time, he felt puzzled.

According to the information provided by Song Shiyi, the Fragmented World was a random place where novice gods were placed. Could external gods also sneak into the newbie village?

Lu Yao immediately regarded the danger of the Skeleton God as the highest.

Regardless of how he entered, the most urgent matter was to consider how to quickly kill this invader.

Lu Yao was a bit headache-inducing.

The Lord of the Deep Sea was just a monster. It couldn’t type on its head or communicate verbally, so he could only manually control it.

That Skeleton God should not have noticed this yet. Otherwise, he would definitely see the "Loyalty to God Yao" on Guer’s head, and there would be no need for the persuasion of the Skeleton Overlord Whale.

Lu Yao temporarily instructed the Lord of the Deep Sea to stay still and observe the situation, while he pondered for a solution.

Seeing no response from the other side, the Skeleton Overlord Whale slowly opened the bones on its back. A skull emerged between the bones, and two ghostly flames flickered in the eye sockets of the skull.

A new name appeared above the skull: "Apostle LV22 Phileas."

...

...The Apostle named Phileas spoke again, "It seems you lack basic communication skills, what a pity."

"But with your strength, you should be able to understand my meaning."

"Among the Apostles under the Skeleton God, I am merely the least significant. It would be easy for me to take over this fragmented world."

"If you are willing to submit to the Skeleton God, follow behind me."

"If you want to fight, then I will continue to accompany you."

After Phileas finished speaking, he retreated back into his bones, steering the skeletal whale slowly towards the west.

Lu Yao immediately operated Gul to follow behind it.

He had understood.

Apostle Phileas had used "Bone Manufacturing" to create the skeletal whale. The whale, like a floating island on the sea, was just a bone weapon controlled by Phileas. The "Symbiotic" characteristic allowed him to merge with the whale.

The bone fish in the sea were also Phileas’s creations.

Lu Yao silently digested this information.

His previous distress had turned into current relief.

Fortunately, it was the Deep Sea Lord who came. It was neither a hero nor an apostle, but a monster unit summoned with a special item. With Phileas’s apostle ability, he could not identify the operator behind Gul.

This once again confirmed Lu Yao’s belief: maintaining group diversity is indeed necessary.

Sometimes, the identities of apostles and heroes can be inconvenient.

He continued to monitor the simulator.

Phileas steered the whale across a large sea area and arrived at the edge of a solitary island.

Lu Yao saw at a glance that a gray statue stood on the island. The statue’s face was blurred, like some kind of upright amphibian.

Found you!

Lu Yao quickly selected "Miracle".

He might only have this one chance to act.

This was also the best time.

Lu Yao gritted his teeth and directly unleashed 250 "Lightning" attacks in one go.

A group of lightning bolts, created by 5000 faith points, thunderously fell from the sky!

The gray statue was hit by the sudden chain lightning, immediately triggering a defensive layer of white light. But the resistance didn’t last long, and the light layer was quickly shattered.

The statue began to peel off, looking shaky.

This scene shocked Phileas, who was standing by, and he became furious, "Despicable heretic! Damn it, damn it!"

Lu Yao felt a bit regretful. He had underestimated the faith reserve of the Skeleton God.

However, from his experience, the opponent’s statue was close to collapse, and there was not much faith left.

Phileas controlled the whale to extend its bone tongue, grabbed the statue into the skeletal creature’s body, and dived into the sea to escape.

At the same time, the Deep Sea Lord tightly entangled the whale, and the two fought in the sea. Both sides moved quickly under the sea, making it difficult for Lu Yao to accurately lock on with the mouse, and the operation became very difficult.

Although Phileas was much weaker, it would still take some time for Gul to completely defeat him.

To avoid any changes, Lu Yao opened the item bar.

He selected the cross star of the "Mirror of Fire", locking onto this sea area.

In the northern forest of the Western Continent, the volcanic wonder "Aegir’s Fire" erupted again, spewing a column of clouds into the sky.

A few seconds later, a group of burning meteorites fell from the sky, launching a concentrated bombardment on Phileas!

The sea surface was bombed into a white fog, with thick smoke rolling.

A clear and huge damage value emerged from the water: -2365

The term "Skeletal Whale" completely disappeared.

The shattered statue slowly floated to the sea surface, bobbing with the waves.
