Chapter 128 Huang Bo's Support for the Younger Generation: A Contrast Between Before and After
After leaving the Hunter's Alliance, Jiang Han traveled by car to a post station near West Bay. Many post stations had been built along the coast to guard against the invasion of sea monsters, and this one in West Bay was called Haiyan Post Station, one of the earliest post stations built along the coastline. Haiyan Post Station consisted of five sea towers, ten residences for the Guardian Mages, and a simple trading street; it was far less grand and imposing than the post stations inland.
Upon entering the post station, they encountered many hunter mages buying supplies and patrolling guard mages. Their strength was generally at the initial or intermediate level, and there were very few high-level mages, all of whom were high-ranking guard mages.
"Brother, have you heard? Things have been a bit unsettled in West Bay lately. Two monster-hunting teams have already gone missing."
"Hmm, it seems there are reports of a commander-level Lan Hai Black Dolphin appearing near Xihai Bay. I wonder if it's true or not."
"Leaving aside whether there are any commander-level sea monsters, there have been quite a few more warrior-level sea monsters lately."
"What's there to be afraid of? Anyway, if something happens, there's a tall guy to take the blame."
"·······"
Jiang Han did not linger at the post station. He registered his information with Master Wei and then left Anjie's cordon.
Not long after crossing the security perimeter, we came to the beach. The air was filled with the salty and fishy smell of the sea. On the sunny beach, there were no bikini-clad beauties like in my previous life, nor were there any sunbathing. There were only a few scattered siren-like creatures wandering on the beach.
Just as Jiang Han was gazing at the beautiful beach scenery from his past life, a voice came from behind him.
"Hey, you over there, wait a minute."
Jiang Han turned around and saw a demon-hunting team, four men and two women. The leader was a middle-aged man, and the other four were about the same age as Jiang Han. It was probably the middle-aged man leading the younger ones on an adventure.
"What is it?" Jiang Han asked indifferently.
What he needed to do was to investigate whether there were any commander-level Lan Hai Black Dolphins in Xihai Bay. He might plant detectors and demon-gathering devices later. Demons were extremely annoyed by the sound waves emitted by the demon-gathering devices. He would use the demon-gathering devices to force out the demons hiding in various places, and then use the detectors to investigate the distribution of demons in the vicinity. If you didn't have some strength, you might really be surrounded and killed by demons when using the demon-gathering devices.
Jiang Han's attitude angered the four young people. One of the girls pointed at Jiang Han and scolded, "Hey, Uncle Huang wanted to invite you to join our team because he saw that you were training alone outside the safety barrier. What kind of attitude is this?"
"I don't need it. If there's nothing else, I'll leave," Jiang Han said calmly.
Jiang Han refused to join the team, but the middle-aged man named Uncle Huang was not angry. Instead, he took out a communication device from his backpack and handed it to Jiang Han, saying, "This is a communication device unique to our team. If you encounter any demons that you can't deal with, you can contact us, and we will come to your aid as soon as possible."
Jiang Han took the communication device from Uncle Huang and said, "Thank you, I have to go now."
Jiang Han didn't sense any malice from Uncle Huang. On the contrary, he seemed to be mentoring a younger generation. He probably invited him to join the team because he was afraid that Uncle Huang would die in the clutches of the sea monster. It has to be said that good people like Uncle Huang were as rare as pandas in his previous life.
"He actually refused to join our team. He'll be crying when he encounters the siren." A young man said coldly as soon as Jiang Han left.
Uncle Huang said calmly, "Let's go, it's time for us to hunt down the Azure Scaled Sea Monster."
After Jiang Han and Huang Bo's demon-hunting team separated, they randomly found a place to set up the demon-gathering device and detector. After the demon-gathering device was turned on, the sound waves began to spread in all directions, and soon the sea began to churn, accompanied by various strange noises.
Gradually, sea monsters with fish-headed, scaled skin began to crawl out of the sea along the coastline, their dense numbers dazzling the eyes.
There were countless servant-level sea monsters, as well as several three-clawed, red-scaled sea monsters. The commander-level demons they were supposed to investigate hadn't appeared yet; if they had, Jiang Han would probably have already fled. Commander-level demons were far stronger than general-level demons, and being near the sea provided a significant amplification to their power.
Solo kill of a commander-level sea monster? Jiang Han didn't think he had that kind of strength; he should still back down.
The detector was covered with green dots, interspersed with a dozen or so red dots. The green dots represented slave-level demons, the red dots represented warrior-level demons, and the commander-level demons were represented by black dots.
After glancing at the detector, Jiang Han mentally connected the three magical artifacts. The dark-colored Snow Dragon Blade appeared in his hand, his left arm was covered by the Thunder Dragon Armguard, and his feet were covered by magical artifacts that exuded a dark aura. The Shadow Boots also gave Jiang Han a special shadow-type skill, Shadow Etherealization.
Jiang Han rushed towards the demon horde and began a massacre, each skill he unleashed killing several slave-level demons.
"Slay 3 slave-level demons, reward 15 system points."
"Slay 4 slave-level demons, reward 20 system points."
"·····"
"Slay 3 slave-level demons, reward 15 system points, and obtain one slave-level remnant soul."
The system notifications kept ringing, and Jiang Han had no choice but to have his assistant temporarily turn them off. As Jiang Han's kill system points began to increase rapidly, when he encountered a War General-level sea monster, he first used Thunder Seal Frenzy to paralyze the sea monster and then used Snow Condensation Dragon Blade to kill it in one fell swoop. The process was extremely smooth and the sea monster died without any pain.
Not everyone can kill slave-level demons as easily as Jiang Han. For example, in a certain reef area, Uncle Huang was fleeing in a sorry state with four young people, followed by forty or fifty crazed blue-scaled sea monsters, including a four-meter-long sea monster with purple scales.
"Zi Yuan, what did you just do? Why are the Azure Scaled Sea Monsters all rioting?" the crew-cut youth in the squad shouted as he ran.
Chen Ziyuan said weakly, "I didn't do anything. I just used fire to injure a young Azure Scale Sea Monster. It's impossible that I injured the big guy's child."
"What an incredibly unlucky day! We just left the safety barrier for our training and ran into a sirens riot," the crew-cut youth complained.
"Fierce Fist - Heaven-Shattering!!"
Red flames erupted from Huang Bo's body, gathering at his right fist before he turned and unleashed a powerful punch. The massive fiery fist instantly vaporized the dozen or so closest pursuers, and many of the Azure Scaled Sea Monsters following closely behind were also blasted away.
The four-meter-long siren, covered in purple scales, opened its blood-red maw, dripping foul-smelling slime onto the ground.
"Damn it, this Purple Scale Blood Demon is really troublesome. If things get too difficult, I'll cover your retreat. You all should try to escape to the safe zone as far as possible," Uncle Huang said solemnly.
Whether by chance or not, the direction they fled was exactly the direction Jiang Han was killing the demons. A few minutes later, they saw a silver-haired man frantically slaughtering among the dense horde of demons. Each time he released a spell, he could take the lives of several sea monsters.
"Who is this hunter mage? He's so powerful! Killing the servant demon is too easy for him!" exclaimed the girl in the team who had scolded Jiang Han earlier.
"Ning Rou, he seems to be the young man we met right after we left the safety barrier," Chen Ziyuan said.
"Enough talk, the rampaging Azure Scaled Sea Demons are catching up quickly, let's run towards them!" said the crew-cut youth.
"Fan Bin, Jia Le, Zi Yuan, the three of you lead the way and get closer to that young man's location. I'll hold off the Azure Scale Sea Demons behind us. Ning Rou, be ready with defensive magic at any time," Uncle Huang loudly ordered the four young men.
