God Simulator

Chapter 91: Maritime invasion

Lu Yao figured out Jimmy’s situation through detailed exploration and questioning.

He was a hero born from the snowmen. Just as Jimmy himself said, he did something that other snowmen had never done before and successfully angered the Dark God.

Although the reason was slightly different from what Lu Yao had expected, the snowman was still worth it.

In terms of combat positioning, the snowman leaned towards being a spellcasting mage, mastering two active long-range skills: Snowball and Blizzard.

However, in Lu Yao’s eyes, its core value was still the "Thieving Hand of Fire".

This exclusive ability of Jimmy’s had a high level and its effectiveness was linked to speed and the level of the ability. The snowman was able to successfully steal from the Dark God’s temple, demonstrating its proficiency and strength.

Lu Yao equipped the "Ghost White Horse" to the snowman to increase its speed and sent it into the "Black Abyss - Level One" to steal.

Target: Ghouls and Corpse Hunters.

For safety reasons, Lu Yao had the snowman stay away from the area where the Tyrant, a demigod, was located, and instead start with the peripheral monsters.

Lu Yao looked down from a god’s perspective.

Jimmy moved stealthily in the abyss, searching for targets.

A ghoul crawled up from the ground ahead. It slowly stood up and walked on the ground, as if stretching its muscles.

The snowman activated!

Jimmy followed behind it, gradually synchronizing his footsteps with the ghoul, appearing as if he was its shadow. The ghoul had no idea that it was being watched.

Then, the snowman raised its branch arm.

The red-gloved end of the branch gently pulled to the left and right, creating an opening in the shadow behind the ghoul.

The snowman reached into the opening and quickly withdrew its hand.

It seemed like it gained nothing.

Jimmy quietly retreated, searching for the next target.

Soon, the snowman targeted another ghoul.

However, this ghoul had an astonishingly high level, reaching LV55, even stronger than the several Corpse Hunters that the Blood Knight had killed before.

Jimmy opened his hands again, cutting open the shadow behind the ghoul and reaching inside.

A exclamation mark suddenly appeared above its head.

"Successful theft!"

The snowman slowly took something out.

It was a blue-bordered white cloth that looked like a handkerchief.

...

[Count’s Handkerchief LV2]: Damage +1, Defense +1.

The personal belonging of the Withered Count.

...

Lu Yao’s eyes gleamed as he watched.

There really was a reward!

In that case... steal fiercely for me!

From this point on, Lu Yao changed his grand strategy for the abyss.

Previously, the strategy was to aggressively attack the instance and violently seize the spoils.

Now, everyone would serve the snowman’s ability! The snowman was the absolute core in the abyss, and everyone had to assist its actions.

The more Lu Yao looked at the snowman, the more pleasing it became to his eyes.

Jimmy, well done, well done.

The "Thieving Hand of Fire" consumed 500 mana each time it was used, so even in perfect condition, the snowman could only steal three times.

It didn’t always yield results, and failure was always the norm for this high-risk ability.

Fortunately, with the "Ghost White Horse," the snowman’s safety was guaranteed and it was difficult to be discovered.

In addition, mana naturally recovered very slowly and required a lot of time.

To let the snowman steal throughout the first level of the abyss required patience and long-term work. For the snowman’s safety, there was no need to rush.

After arranging Jimmy, Lu Yao shifted his attention back to outside the abyss.

...

Isabella brought good news to Lu Yao.

"Sir, after recent battles and comprehension, I have become more proficient in using the ’Sword of the Forest’ and have made some improvements."

Lu Yao clicked on Isabella’s temple avatar.

With the blessing of the "Sword of the Forest," her panel had improved again.

...

[Apostle Lv26] Sword of the Forest · Isabella

Health: 325/325

Mana: 615/615

Damage: 44

Defense: 42

Speed: 19

...

Most importantly, the "Sword of the Forest" had reached LV2, with overall increases in values: damage +20, defense +20, and speed +4.

Lu Yao had always had high hopes for the growth of the holy sword.

However, he was a little worried about Isabella’s health panel.

The Blood Knight had nearly 4000+ health, and the Deep Sea Lord had over 3000+ health. In comparison, Isabella was too fragile.

While her defense and speed were good, if she encountered special faith-based attacks, she could easily be in danger.

For example.

If she was hit by a miracle from a divine player, theoretically, it would only take 9 "Lightning" spells to kill Isabella. The cost could be as low as 180 faith.

Of course, this was under the premise of being accurately targeted by the player. If Isabella maintained high-speed movement, it would be difficult for the divine player’s miracle to hit her.

Lu Yao expressed his concerns to Isabella.

"I’m very sorry, sir, for adding to your worries with my weakness."

Isabella knelt on one knee. "Please rest assured, I will focus on improving my vitality in the future and strive to comprehend corresponding abilities."After her explanation, Lu Yao finally understood.

It turned out that during the continuous upgrading process, Isabella had been focusing on the ability of "Wisdom". Therefore, her "Wisdom" was on par with her personal level, reaching an astonishing level 26.

Lu Yao was a bit puzzled, could Apostles freely allocate points when leveling up?

He asked the Blood Knight and the Snowman.

However, both of them said that the way they grow cannot be decided by themselves, it is innate.

Only Isabella could do it.

She had some kind of speciality.

But Isabella was his own Apostle, connected by the flame of faith, and was trustworthy.

Lu Yao didn’t mind.

He had already stopped working on the "Golden Plains" and turned to sneak into the "Black Abyss". Even if the Forest God had left any tricks, there was no chance of mischief.

After adjusting the growth direction, as long as she leveled up further, Isabella’s life would also grow rapidly, and she wouldn’t always be as fragile as her current health bar.

At this time, a disturbance occurred in Salt City.

The pixelated people were all talking at once, expressions of fear and unease floating above their heads.

"The killer fish in the sea are too terrifying."

"Three paddle sailboats have already been sunk by the killer fish, they’ve eaten dozens of people, we can’t go to the deep sea in the west anymore, sigh..."

"Damn it, the sea monsters of the East Sea Clan can’t fight them, and arrows are useless, we need stronger weapons! We are too weak!"

"For now, everyone should avoid going to the west, safety is important."

Everyone in the city was talking about the same thing.

Lu Yao asked Isabella to further investigate the situation. Soon, she had a clear understanding of the entire incident.

"Master, according to Mayor Fisherman, an unidentified school of fish suddenly appeared in the sea not long ago."

"These fish have sharp horns and are ferocious. When they encounter fishermen’s paddle sailboats, they immediately attack, can gather in a very short time, and become a very powerful force."

"After sinking the ship, they eat humans. These fish not only attack humans, but also attack all creatures hunting in the sea."

"The fishermen say that there are no natural enemies of these fish in the ocean. They mostly lurk in the deep sea, but they can keenly detect ships on the sea and then launch rapid attacks."

"The sea monsters of the East Sea Clan have fought these fish, but they were also killed."

"Because these fish have the nature of hunting humans, the fishermen of Salt City call them killer fish."

"The number of killer fish is rapidly increasing, and the deep-sea area of the West Continent has become their territory. The school of fish is now expanding towards the east and north."

"At present, Salt City has no way to deal with the killer fish. After discussing with the merchants, Fisherman decided to temporarily close the sea. They paid a huge price, captured a few killer fish, and are studying ways to deal with these fish..."

Lu Yao carefully read Isabella’s report.

He found that the pixelated people had grown.

In the tribal era, the little people would definitely pray in front of the temple, begging their god to take action. Not only ordinary people, but prophets as well.

With the development and progress of civilization, the intelligence of the little people improved, and their cognitive abilities also increased day by day.

After experiencing many difficulties and storms, a new generation of heroes like Fisherman began to lead the crowd. They have learned to use knowledge to solve problems, and their ability to be independent far exceeds their predecessors.

As a guardian, Lu Yao felt relieved as if he was watching a baby learning to crawl.

Although the little people did not ask for the god, Lu Yao realized that this matter was not simple. The sudden appearance of such a powerful species in the sea must have a reason behind it.

He moved his perspective and found a small pool piled up by the sea, as Isabella had said.

There were two small white fish in the pool.

They looked a bit like swordfish, with long sword bones on their heads, and their bodies were completely made of white bones. The two fish were fiercely hitting the stone mill that built the pool, trying to rush out of the pool.

Lu Yao double-clicked on the killer fish.

...

【Bone Fish LV2】

Health: 33/33

Mana: 12/12

Damage: 4

Defense: 2

Speed: 5

【Submerge】

Dive underwater, doubling the movement speed.

【Bone Creature】

A creature made of bones, its strength is related to the number of bones and the level of the bones before death.

...

Sure enough, there was something fishy.

Lu Yao rolled up his sleeves, his eyes becoming sharp.

Let me see, who is causing trouble under the water.
