The cool sensation traveled through the wound to Xiaobai's mind, like touching a piece of metal at just the right temperature.
The blue flames in the crystal beast's mouth flickered twice, but this time, the saber did not harm the one who touched it.
Xiao Bai took a breath, but didn't stop what she was doing.
Xiao Bai opened his palm, grasped the hilt of the military knife, and then gently exerted force. With a hiss, blue flames surged from the mouth of the crystal beast head, and Xiao Bai easily pulled the military knife out of the beast's mouth. The whole movement was smooth and effortless, without any hindrance.
The full view of the saber was finally revealed to Xiaobai.
This is a very standard white military knife, with a simple metallic sheen all over its body. The style of the handle is exactly the same as the Deep Sea Killer in Xiaobai's memory. The blade is long and narrow, and even when it is held still, a faint whistling sound echoes from time to time.
That was the sound of the sea breeze being sliced by a sharp blade.
"As expected..." Xiaobai murmured.
"How did you do that?" The voice of the Deep Sea Will appeared behind Xiaobai.
Xiao Bai turned around and saw the Deep Sea Will, now in spiritual form, standing with its arms crossed, staring in astonishment at the military knife in its hand. Clusters of deep-sea energy swirled around it.
Just as Xiaobai attempted to touch the military knife, the Deep Sea Will, sensing Xiaobai's thoughts, secretly appeared behind Xiaobai. She did not stop Xiaobai, but at the same time, she prepared for the worst, wanting to use her Deep Sea Aura to remedy the situation the moment the military knife harmed Xiaobai.
"What did you just do to make this military knife completely lose its offensive capability against you?" Deep Sea Will asked.
“I didn’t do anything,” Xiaobai then shook her head.
"Didn't do it?" The Will of the Deep Sea frowned.
"Yes, I didn't do anything," Xiaobai repeated, gently pointing the blade of his military knife downwards and looking down at it.
"Then why did you dare to reach out your hand?" There was a hint of resentment in the voice of the Deep Sea Will.
"After all, there's no other way now..." Xiaobai gave a wry smile, then blinked and slowly said, "Also, I suddenly remembered something..."
"what's up?"
"Hmm... I suddenly remembered what the guild leader told me a few days ago." Xiaobai lightly touched the sharp blade with her finger, tracing a line across it, her gaze complex. "The guild leader said that the Deep Sea Killer knife was left to me by my brother. I chewed on the blade of the Deep Sea Killer, which in a sense meant I became one with it. So, logically speaking, since this knife has reappeared here, I should be considered its master... Even if it's disobedient, it should still be reasonable, so I guess... it probably won't harm its master."
After Xiaobai finished speaking, he handed the finger that had just been pressed on the blade to the Deep Sea Will.
As it turns out, Xiaobai made the right bet.
Even when Xiaobai's fingers pressed directly against the blade of the military knife, there was no wound. In Xiaobai's hands, this unruly military knife was as docile and harmless as a toy model on the street.
The Will of the Deep Sea stared at Little White's fingers with a strange look in its eyes.
The Will of the Deep Sea remained silent, gently reaching towards the saber.
The Deep Sea Will is now a spiritual entity, and theoretically only Xiaobai can perceive it. However, when the Deep Sea Will's hand approached the military knife, the harmless knife suddenly began to emit a loud crackling sound, as if warning the Deep Sea Will not to come closer.
Surprisingly, although Sabre expressed strong dissatisfaction with the Deep Sea Will's desire to contact it and a dangerous aura emanated from him, Xiaobai, who was holding Sabre in his hand, was not affected at all. It was as if the aura was sentient and could bypass Xiaobai's hand.
Seeing this, the Will of the Deep Sea withdrew its hand.
"I understand." The Will of the Deep Sea nodded and said to Little White, "In simpler terms, it's what's called a weapon recognizing its master?"
"That seems to be the idea..." Xiaobai replied.
"..." Deep Sea Will crossed his arms and silently looked at the military knife in Xiaobai's hand. After a while, he asked, "Is this knife heavy?"
Xiao Bai was taken aback. She subconsciously raised her military knife and waved it twice.
The military knife felt as light as plastic in Xiaobai's hands, yet she wielded it with such force that the air around her seemed to gleam with its light.
"It doesn't seem to be sinking." The Will of the Deep Sea watched Little White's movements and answered in a low voice.
"That will of the deep sea..."
“Yes, I know.” The Will of the Deep Sea nodded. “Now only you can use this sword. You will have to fight Frederick the Great on your own in the battle to come.”
"Okay." Xiaobai tightened his grip on the military knife, his gaze resolute. "Leave it to me!"
The will of the deep sea looked silently at Little White, then suddenly closed its eyes.
I thought you would be very scared.
"what?"
“It’s nothing.” The Will of the Deep Sea shook its head and floated behind Little White. “However, I still have to remind you that our situation is still not optimistic. Compared to missiles with a long range and a very high hit rate, cold weapons have far too many disadvantages. If we had other options, I would never have suggested that you use this saber to fight Frederick the Great.”
"Mm." Xiaobai gripped the military knife tightly and nodded.
“There’s one more thing.” The Will of the Deep Sea extended its finger.
"What?" Xiaobai looked at the Will of the Deep Sea.
"Deepsea Yamato and the others can't hold on much longer." The Deepsea Will pointed to one side.
"Huh?" Xiaobai was stunned. She subconsciously looked in the direction the will of the deep sea was pointing.
Boom! ! !
Just as Xiaobai looked over, a huge explosion rang out on the battlefield amidst the flying bullets. A purple mechanical whale was blasted into the air by a pure black cannonball, howling in agony.
The enormous whale roared as it plummeted from mid-air, crashing into the sea with a deafening roar, creating huge waves.
Frederick the Great appeared riding the waves. Without the purple whale's threat, her survival pressure was greatly reduced. She dodged the dense attacks from the sky while frantically firing at the sea.
A large number of black shells burst out from Frederick the Great's ship rigging, each one seemingly aimed at a blind spot, fired from almost perfect angles. With a series of booming explosions, the Abyssal Commander team of the newbie naval base was blasted into a chaotic mess, with shouts and curses from the Abyssal Commanders echoing across the sea.
"What the hell is this thing? It's like an eel, I just can't hit it!"
"Ship equipment damaged—"
"She's run to the three o'clock position!"
"Fight back! We must fight back!"
"Wait until I organize the carrier-based aircraft..."
……
Amidst the flying artillery fire, the Deep Sea Deans' offensive was no longer as effective as before.
"Looks like there's no time for you to familiarize yourself with this saber." Deep Sea Will said, waving his hand lightly. The surrounding deep-sea aura slowly lifted the land-based ship equipment to the surface of the water. "Go quickly."
"Okay!" Xiaobai nodded emphatically, then activated the land-based ship equipment and headed towards the center of the battlefield.
"Yamato-neechan!" Shiro called out to Yamato as they raced along.
"Little White? You're back!" Deep Sea Yamato was still taming the white whale, her face full of confusion. Upon hearing Little White's voice, she immediately put down the reins and looked excitedly toward Little White.
"Yamato-neechan, help me!" Shiro called out briefly, brandishing her military knife in the air.
"Huh?" Yamato was stunned. She looked at the military knife in Shiro's hand with a puzzled expression, not understanding what Shiro meant for a moment, but she nodded quickly, "Okay! How can I help!"
"Hit me!"
"what?"
"Go all out, hit me!" Little White, carrying a military knife, bounced around on the land-based ship's equipment.
"..." Yamato was stunned, but after a few seconds, he came to his senses and nodded seriously, "Alright! All out, right—"
Deep Sea Yamato slammed its fist on the head of the white whale beneath it. The white whale stopped in its tracks, opened its massive jaws, and extended its laser cannon.
The icy blue light condensed in an instant.
The slender laser cannon erupted instantly, shooting straight towards Xiaobai.
"I'm giving it my all!!!" Yamato shouted.
The laser cannon traversed thousands of miles in an instant and arrived in front of Xiaobai.
With a light leap, Xiaobai shielded the land-based ship behind it.
Sizzle s ...
The laser cannon hit Xiaobai's land-based ship equipment perfectly. In an instant, the air around the land-based ship equipment dropped to freezing point, and a thick layer of ice crystals formed on the entire ship equipment. At the same time, a huge impact force also appeared behind Xiaobai, propelling Xiaobai and the ship equipment together, straight towards Frederick the Great in the center of the battlefield at a speed far exceeding that of the ship.
It happened almost in the blink of an eye.
As the laser cannon propelled Xiaobai, it rushed to Frederick the Great's side.
Very close.
We're very close now.
Xiao Bai looked up and saw Frederick the Great standing in front of him, less than a few meters away.
Frederick the Great was dodging the barrage of bullets when she noticed the approaching Little White. Her red eyes were filled with only confusion.
Xiao Bai, stepping on the ice-crystal-covered hull of the land-based ship, picked up his saber and lightly jumped up.
Little White hopped in front of Frederick the Great, ignoring the dense barrage of bullets behind her, and slashed Frederick the Great's body with her saber.
In the blink of an eye.
The blade flashed across Frederick the Great's body.
The sharp blade even cleaved a crack several meters long in the sea behind Frederick the Great.
Chapter 2174 Judgment
The fierce battlefield fell into an eerie silence in that instant.
The saber felt like it was striking Frederick the Great without any real impact; Xiaobai's swing of the sword seemed to cut through thin air.
Did you cut it all?
There should be none.
Xiao Bai remained in a sword-wielding posture, floating in mid-air, gazing at Frederick the Great, who was so close at hand.
Xiao Bai clearly watched as his saber slashed into Frederick the Great's left shoulder, the blade cutting straight through her ship's rigging, severing her body, and then smoothly exiting from her right thigh. He could see it all clearly.
This military knife is so sharp that the cutting sensation is even more exaggerated than the so-called "cutting iron like mud" or "slicing tofu with a knife".
Huff
The Deep Sea Yamato's laser cannon completed its manned mission. After Shiro jumped away, it whooshed past Frederick the Great. Even though the laser cannon did not hit any target, the extreme low temperature instantly froze all the ice in its trajectory.
Xiao Bai, holding a military knife, slammed it onto the ice with a thud.
Along with Xiaobai, Frederick the Great's body and ship equipment fell silently.
As the saber swung, Frederick the Great's body remained motionless until Xiaobai fell. Only then did the ship's rigging behind Frederick the Great slowly shift, splitting into two halves—upper left and lower right—along with her body, silently falling onto the ice as if cut by a mirror.
boom--
Just as Frederick the Great's body split in two and fell, a raging storm of deep-sea energy swept across the entire sea. As if drawn by a black hole, the deep-sea energy surged toward Frederick the Great's body, overwhelming and relentless.
This is a phenomenon where the deep-sea atmosphere sensed that Frederick the Great had suffered a great injury and spontaneously surged from all directions in an attempt to heal her wounds.
But just a few seconds later, the storm of deep-sea energy that had been rushing towards them disappeared.
Along with the disappearance of the storm, the surrounding light also changed. The sea in front of everyone was now clear and blue, the air was fresh, white clouds floated in the sky, and one or two seagulls would occasionally glide by. Not to mention the thick black fog that had been hovering over the sea, even within the visible range of several thousand meters, there was not a trace of deep-sea aura.
Amidst the battlefield, Yamato lowered his head, gently pinched the air in front of him with his fingers, and looked at the sea with a strange gaze.
As the most senior Dean of the Deep Sea, Yamato Deep Sea knew very well what this phenomenon meant—the rich deep-sea aura surrounding them had been completely and utterly exhausted in that instant.
Frederick the Great's injuries were so severe that he absorbed all the deep-sea energy around him in one breath.
Deep Sea Yamato cast a surprised and suspicious gaze at the distant ice surface.
On the ice, Xiaobai's figure slowly rose.
Xiao Bai, carrying his military knife, first glanced at the suddenly transformed environment, now filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers, then turned his head to search for Frederick the Great.
"Cough cough cough, cough cough————"
A painful cough caught Xiaobai's attention.
Following the sound, Xiao Bai saw Frederick the Great, his mouth full of black blood, lying motionless amidst fragments of his ship's rigging on the ice not far from him.
Frederick the Great did not die.
But her current condition seems to be almost as bad as death.
At the moment Xiaobai slashed him down, Frederick the Great's body was completely split in two.
This was a fatal wound.
If this had happened to any of the Deep Sea Deans present, it would have been a serious injury enough to kill them a dozen times over.
However, Frederick the Great's situation was slightly different. First, she possessed a vitality that was unmatched by ordinary deep-sea deans. Second, due to her long-term rule over the sea, the abundant deep-sea energy in the area served as her support. Therefore, even if her body was split in two by Xiaobai, she could heal her fatal injuries in an instant.
—But that's about it.
