Gu Shen looked at that tall, skinny white-haired middle-aged man. The most conspicuous among the crowd was [Living Fish], because his Source Armor helmet was special, filled with liquid, and gills had actually grown on both sides of his cheeks. This guy’s eyes were pitch black, making him appear indifferent and emotionless. His voice sounded a bit creepy when he spoke, but these traits were likely due to the awakening of Extraordinary Ability. His words, rather than being cold, were somewhat gentle. He was the only one among this group who took the initiative to greet him.
"Gu Shen... I’ve heard your name."
Fisher said in a ghostly tone: "I heard that [Undead] have also appeared on the East Continent. Is that your friend?"
[Undead] are extremely rare Extraordinary Mutations.
Currently, the Five Continents have not yet discerned the pattern of [Undead] emergence. They seem to be the "lucky ones" among Transcendents, possessing incredibly tenacious life force and extraordinary healing abilities. Theoretically, as long as they haven’t died and can be resurrected, their power will continue to grow.
However, all things in the world are fair.
The life of [Undead] also has an end. Due to their "immortal" nature, they go through many tribulations, and each revival means a shortening of life. Notable [Undead] in the Federation haven’t lived too long. They burn out everything, burst forth with brilliant radiance, and then greet the desolate finale as if it were their fate.
Those who burn too early must repay the remaining light.
"When we meet again, you can tell that man named Song Ci not to rely too much on this power..." Fisher said with profound meaning, "If there are any needs, feel free to come to Deep Scale Fortress to find me."
In the North Continent, his appearance was always respected and feared.
Delivering messages rashly would certainly be disliked.
But Gu Shen’s Chi Huo could feel Fisher’s goodwill. Despite his horrific appearance, he had a good heart.
"Thank you for the reminder, I will certainly pass it on."
He exchanged contact information with Fisher. After doing so, the head soaked in the fish tank gave a "friendly" smile, which, aided by the gills and pitch-black pupils, appeared both deep and dark.
It is said that [Living Fish]’s photos... in the North Continent Fortress, can stop children’s nighttime cries.
Even Gu Shen, as the Netherworld King, was briefly intimidated by this smile, hesitated for a second before reciprocating with a smile.
"Is this considered an ’Extraordinary Mutation’? Why is his head like that?"
"It’s a type of ’Extraordinary Mutation,’ and the North Continent Army hasn’t hidden Fisher’s information in this regard." Chu Ling said, "He was born in a coastal village of the Central Continent. When he first awakened Extraordinary Power, it was solely ’Water type.’ However, later on, physical changes began to occur, and Fisher started evolving towards a ’shark.’
The term didn’t seem quite accurate.
"Yes, evolving." Chu Ling stated firmly, "Compared to humans, sharks have much longer lifespans and millions of times stronger cellular activity. In this aspect, they are definitely more perfect ’evolvers.’ In one mission, Fisher suffered a ’certain death’ injury, but due to his extreme cell activity, not only did he not die, he also recovered from his injuries in just half a month."
"So that’s the origin of the nickname ’Living Fish’..."
"The downside is that he needs to wear special Source Armor for most of his time." Chu Ling said softly, "It’s worth mentioning that this is a specially made ’Seventh-Order Source Armor’ by the North Continent Army. Fisher isn’t even a Titled Transcendent, but due to his unique ability, he enjoys Source Armor resources two levels higher. This treatment is unique in the North Continent."
Be aware that crafting Seventh-Order Source Armor requires enormous resources!
This is equipment reserved for "top Transcendents!"
After Fifth-Order, Source Armor couldn’t be mass-produced... The North Continent possesses the Five Continents’ strongest combat powers and Transcendents, but among them, those who can truly cultivate to the Deep Sea Tenth Layer are rare.
Hence, the rarity and distinctiveness of [Undead].
"Wearing ’Seventh-Order Source Armor,’ most Titled powerhouses in the world cannot shatter the ’fish tank’ on his head." Chu Ling said seriously, "This guy has Undead Bloodline, extremely tough life force. With this Source Armor, he’s among the top three in the Third Legion’s many generals. Even if you reach the same realm with him in the future, it would be difficult to kill him."
Gu Shen looked at Fisher. This guy, wearing "Seventh-Order Source Armor," when fighting, was equivalent to having an S-grade sealed item advantage over his opponents.
"Wait a minute... [Living Fish] is top three among the Third Legion’s generals. Who’s ranked first?"
Gu Shen suddenly realized a problem.
At this moment, within the giant wall, numerous known generals made way.
A burly man, wearing special Source Armor, wielding a great sword, slowly approached.
He was blind in one eye, with a black cloth covering it, but around him was an aura of a strange atmosphere.
As if accompanied by a bright glow, once you took a glance, it was hard to look away.
This was the domain emanated by cultivating Spiritual to Great Success... This guy was not only Titled but also a powerhouse among the Titled. Gu Shen carefully observed the Source Armor this man was wearing. Seventh-Order Source Armor, enough to verify his previous speculation.
This man’s spiritual power was extremely immense, comparable in Gu Shen’s circle to only Uncle Gao.
"The one ranked first in the Third Legion is the person walking up to you now."
Chu Ling said gravely, "His name is Osmond, undoubtedly the first under the General in the Third Legion. His file is absolutely confidential, only known that his ability is called [Void Eyes], an extremely powerful Spiritual Extraordinary Ability. [Living Fish] Fisher was brought into the legion by him, and the Seventh-Order Source Armor was secured for him by Osmond."
"Also... do not meet his gaze; this person is called the ’Eye of the Third Legion’ and is very likely to become the next General. His spiritual power is unfathomable, not something you can handle at the moment!"
Even without Chu Ling’s reminder, Gu Shen had a strong sense of self-awareness. He merely glanced briefly and quickly looked away.
Yet even such a slight gaze... drew the attention of this "Eye of the Legion."
Osmond felt a strange sensation of being watched. Walking amidst layers of gazes, ordinary people’s eyes wouldn’t reach his awareness... yet this time, the "eyeball" under the eyepatch actually twitched.
Osmond instinctively looked towards Gu Shen, carefully scrutinizing.
This young man seemed enshrouded in layers of shadows.
Without activating his ability, he couldn’t see through.
An "S-grade" from the East Continent?
Osmond didn’t look for long. He merely gave a cursory glance and then retracted his gaze. At this moment, all present were keen-sensed powerhouses. As the Eye of the Legion, if he kept his eyes on Gu Shen... it would certainly bring this young man unexpected trouble.
"Besides Osmond, there’s another guy you need to watch out for."
Chu Ling’s voice was serious, "Duke Zhuxue’s most combative Transcendent, ’Heavenly Dog.’"
Gu Shen’s spiritual power tensed.
He noticed, walking alongside Osmond, was a masked young man in a black cloak. That youth wore an Evil Ghost Mask engraved with ferocious fangs, standing slightly behind as a sign of respect for Osmond, the highly esteemed senior in the legion.
This guy gave him an extremely dangerous feeling...
All other station-keepers restrained their spiritual power, especially someone like Osmond. However, the "Heavenly Dog" was an exception.
He almost seemed eager to show off all his sharp edges...
"Lord Osmond, welcome to Gu Castle."
This time, it was Lin Lin who took the initiative to step forward.
This time, it was Lin Lin who took the initiative to greet.
"Thank you for your support."
Osmond smiled gently.
Before the two had a chance for small talk.
The Heavenly Dog cut in with a cold, blade-like voice: "Quasi-General, why is the giant wall so lively today? Mustn’t you know the real reason in your heart?"
His voice was as cold as a knife: "If there’s anything you need, you can come to Deep Scale Fortress to find me."
