Chapter 176 - 176 Doing As Snakes Do
A mission? Right now?
He ignored the first mission option. The reward was insignificant, even if he had to do nothing.
Wang Mang was also hesitant about the second mission option to help the human cruise ship. It did not have the highest reward, furthermore, he would have to go against the Octopus King.
Of course, Wang Mang did not immediately reject the second mission.
The main reason was because this cruise ship was too big!
It was so big that it was extremely difficult for the Octopus King to capsize it. However, at the same time, there was no way for the cruise ship to escape the Octopus King.
Thinking this, Wang Mang decided to observe the situation for a while before making a decision.
Thus, Wang Mang quietly approached the surface of the sea and carefully checked things out.
At this moment, aboard the cruise ship, many passengers of different skin colors and luxurious clothes were in a panicked state on the vast ship deck.
They had not expected to encounter such a situation when they sailed out to international waters to hold a gambling gathering.
All kinds of noises and screams of horror could be heard from the ship deck.
A blue-eyed, golden-haired woman screamed in horror, “Heavens! We’ve encountered a sea monster. We’re done for!”
“F*ck! Stop shouting! We’ve already contacted the navy!”
“We’ll be fine!”
“Why am I so unlucky? I actually encountered such a catastrophe during my first trip out!”
“Damn it! I didn’t win the lottery, I didn’t win at cards, nor at roulette. And now I’ve encountered a sea monster? My bad luck never ends! F*ck my life!”
“The motherf*cking cruise ship is being dragged down by a sea monster. Just how big is this damn monster?”
“Don’t worry, we’ll definitely be fine…”
“Oh God, please spare my life! My father is about to die, and I still have to go back and inherit the property!”
At this moment, everyone was panicking, and for good reason too.
At the same time, Wang Mang had gotten the information he wanted.
This cruise ship did not belong to the Red Empire, and it only seemed to be carrying rich people and partygoers.
Furthermore, as a cruise ship, it was not armed despite its size. This cruise ship was called the Freedom, and estimated to be more than 200 meters long, and dozens of meters wide.
Wang Mang had boarded a luxury cruise ship of this level with his father once before, so he knew that it could probably accommodate one to two thousand people.
Of course, this was not what Wang Mang cared about.
Wang Mang was concerned about whether he could capsize this cruise ship. In any case, he was going to cause havoc in the White Empire soon, so he really did not have scruples about killing people.
Perhaps his nature as a snake was helping with this.
Moreover, once the mission was completed.
Wang Mang would soon be able to evolve again.
Thus, Wang Mang did not want to miss out on this opportunity to earn evolution value, as well as an Advanced Gacha.
At this thought, Wang Mang steeled his heart and made his choice.
” System, I choose Mission 3!”
[Ding! The host has successfully selected his mission option! Please complete the mission as soon as possible to obtain the reward!]
Wang Mang secretly heaved a sigh of relief. He glanced at the huge cruise ship with some sympathy.
“Sigh, the system offered me too many benefits to pass up, so I can only send you all off with my apologies.”
Wang Mang quietly hid underwater, diving down about a thousand meters, before transforming into his massive true form.
Then, Wang Mang once again swam up toward the huge cruise ship.
Of course, before Wang Mang made his move.
He had to inform the Octopus King of his intentions.
After all, he was here to help. At the very least, he could earn a favor by doing so.
Soon, when Wang Mang approached, the Octopus King noticed him and asked, “Are you a friend? What are you doing?”
Wang Mang sized up the gigantic Octopus King and hurriedly replied, “Do you need any help?”
The Octopus King was astonished to hear this, and asked hesitantly, “Are you willing to help me?”
“Of course! We demons are family,” Wang Mang said righteously.
Hearing this, the Octopus King said happily, “Great! Help me capsize this cruise ship and I will owe you a favor.”
Wang Mang immediately smiled and replied, “Alright. Just focus on pulling the cruise ship to one side later. I’ll help you tip it over.”
“Thank you, Brother Python. We’ll be friends after this.”
“You’re too polite, Brother Octopus. This is just a small favor.”
“Brother Python, prepare yourself. When I exert my full strength, you and I will capsize this cruise ship together.”
Wang Mang nodded and put some distance between them.
The plan was for the Octopus King to tilt the ship to one side, after which Wang Mang would burst forth from the sea and hit the ship from the other side, using the force of the impact to overturn it.
To be honest, just envisioning the epic scene made Wang Mang’s blood boil. He would be like one of those epic monsters from the movies!
Soon, Wang Mang was several thousand meters away, and was ready to charge forward to deal a devastating blow.
...
At the same time, Wang Mang sent a mental transmission to the Octopus King, saying “I’m ready!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Mang witnessed a shocking scene.
The huge cruise ship, which was wrapped up by the Octopus King’s tentacles, began to shake violently, and started to tilt to one side.
This Octopus King was so strong!
Wang Mang also knew that it was his turn now, and his massive body began to surge with strength.
His role was to deal the finishing blow!
