"Mr. Leopold, do you want to reconsider?
The Curse of Poseidon can only be used three times, and its deterrence value is greater than its actual effect. If we use it now, we will be at a disadvantage compared with other cities and races when those adventurers become more powerful! "
Regarding the Curse of Poseidon, Beckmillo had to raise his own objection.
The Curse of Poseidon was unique to the Royal Family of the Heaven-sea City, but similar means existed in other cities and races.
Twelve years ago, under the order of that mysterious person, the war between races was forced to stop. Only when adventurers entered this world could the war be resumed.
As a reward for stopping the war between races, all races and cities received some special means to deal with adventurers from that person.
The effect of the Curse of Poseidon was that in the next month, every time an adventurer who was killed by the Curse of Poseidon was killed by an adventurer who had accepted the mission to kill him, the adventurer who was cursed by the Curse of Poseidon would directly drop one level!
Therefore, the effect of the Curse of Poseidon was more powerful for adventurers. It was too wasteful to use it now.
"No!
I've made up my mind!
Now we use the Curse of Poseidon to let those adventurers know that we natives have special means to deal with them. At least they won't dare to mess around in the Heaven-sea City in the future! "Leopold said fiercely.
He had been dissatisfied with those adventurers for a long time, and now was the time to let them know how powerful he was.
"Okay, I'll arrange it right away." Beckmillo heard Leopold's words and knew it was useless to say anything more.

"Brother, 20 gold coins for your wooden boat, are you willing to sell it?"
At six o 'clock in the morning, when the sun had just risen in the game, a team was preparing to go out to sea on a boat at a seaside in the Heaven-sea City. Suddenly, a player walked up to them and offered to buy their boat at a high price.
"Sell!" The team agreed without hesitation.
Wooden boats could be bought everywhere in the Heaven-sea City. If they bought their boat from an NPC, it would only cost them 5 gold coins. Now they could earn 15 gold coins by selling it, so they were very happy.
Soon, many teams of players would appear around them. If they didn't sell, this player would definitely find others.
After trading the boat with the player, Chen Mo jumped onto the wooden boat alone and sailed towards the west of Sky Sea City.
Since they were already in Sky Sea City, Chen Mo decided to go to the place where Hai Ruo and Haiweila lived. He wanted to find Hai Ruo and bring her to East Sea City to find Joanna to remove the negative effects of Darkness Corrosion.
If he went back and came back again, it would take at least two more days. Chen Mo didn't have enough time now, so of course, he would save as much as he could.
Hai Ruoou had chosen to live in seclusion on a small neutral island called Starsand Island. There were no major powers on the island, only a few scattered NPC residents. The island was practically self-sufficient in terms of resources. It was a small place that no major powers would target. Aside from the fact that she knew people there, the main reason Hai Ruoou had chosen to live in seclusion on Starsand Island was that no major powers would target the island.
With the speed of Chen Mo's wooden boat, it would take him an entire day to travel from Sky Sea City to Starsand Island. Chen Mo was rowing the boat by himself, but he couldn't log off. If he logged off, the boat would be stored away and wouldn't be able to move.
Left with no choice, Chen Mo could only obediently stay on the wooden boat and row.
Fortunately, he was using the Hibernation Chamber. With his current physique, he wouldn't have any problems staying online for two or three days.
Along the way, Chen Mo saw many Seafolk players leveling up on the sea. At first, Chen Mo was very curious about these players who came to the sea on wooden boats.
However, after seeing them a few times, he had a rough idea of what they were up to.
Riding a wooden boat to level up on the sea was undoubtedly a very dangerous thing to do. However, even though it was dangerous, the experience gained from killing monsters on the sea was very high. The chances of obtaining equipment and tools were also much higher.
Hence, the level gap between the Seafolk players, as well as the level gap between high-level and low-level players, was much higher than that of the human race.
Roughly 20 hours later, Chen Mo saw an island in the distance.
This island was flat. Looking from afar, there weren't any tall mountains, only large patches of coconut trees.
"I'm finally here!"
After confirming the coordinates, Chen Mo breathed out a sigh of relief.
"Find someone!"
Chen Mo dragged the wooden boat ashore and tossed it aside. He wasn't afraid that someone would steal it. This item belonged to someone else, and no one else could use it.
…
"An A-rank quest with an extremely high reward has been refreshed in the Quest Hall!"
"What kind of quest is it?"
"A killing quest!
As long as you kill a player, you'll receive 200 gold coins for every kill! "
"Is this for real?"
At the same time that Chen Mo landed on Starsand Island, a shocking piece of news broke out among the players of Sky Sea City.
An A-rank quest had suddenly been refreshed in Sky Sea City's Quest Hall. This was something that had never happened before in Sky Sea City!
It wasn't that no one had accepted an A-rank quest before, but it had never appeared in the Quest Hall before. This was because if it appeared in the Quest Hall, it meant that anyone could accept it. There were no restrictions.
In the past, B-rank quests appearing in the Quest Hall were the highest. Moreover, it was only a week ago when the quest to find two NPCs appeared. This time, when the A-rank quest appeared, it instantly attracted the attention of countless players in Sky Sea City.
"The quest is to kill a human player called Silent Disaster. Every kill is worth 200 gold coins. You can kill him 10 times at most!"
"Damn, if you can kill him 10 times, won't you get 2,000 gold coins as a reward?"
Hearing the quest reward, many players exclaimed in surprise.
200 gold coins, if converted to Chinese currency in the real world, would be equivalent to 200,000 Chinese currency. Killing someone in the game once would earn 200,000 Chinese currency. This reward was simply unbelievable.
If you could kill him 10 times, you would instantly become a millionaire!
"This guy called Silent Disaster, why does his name sound so familiar?"
Hearing the target's name, some of the players in Sky Sea City felt that it sounded familiar.
Soon after, some of them remembered. Wasn't this person the extremely famous person in Serene Sea City?
Serene Sea City was the main city in the war against East Sea City, so the name Silent Disaster was very famous. Who knew how many people in Serene Sea City ran away when they saw this guy?
Thinking up to this point, although some of the players saw that the reward was abnormally good, and many of them were tempted by the reward and accepted the quest, they still hesitated.
…
"Excuse me, is Hai Ruo Ou here?"
After arriving at Star Sand Island, there were players and NPCs on the island. Chen Mo asked a few NPCs and found out that Hai Ruo Ou was currently living in the home of an NPC called Pei Sha.
Pei Sha should be Hai Ruo Ou's friend. After Chen Mo asked for Pei Sha's location, he directly went to find her.
After knocking on the door, a beautiful young NPC in her twenties opened it. Chen Mo went to inquire.
"Hai Ruo Ou?
I don't have anyone with this name here! "Pei Sha said coldly as she came out and looked at Chen Mo.
"Don't worry, my name is Silent Disaster. I'm an adventurer friend of Hai Ruo Ou and Hai Ruo Ou," Chen Mo hurriedly said.
"You are Silent Disaster?"
After confirming Chen Mo's identity, Pei Sha let out a sigh of relief, "So it's you. I've heard Hai Ruo Ou mention you before. Hai Ruo Ou and Hai Ruo Ou are currently collecting seashells at the edge of the island. You can find them there."
"Are there other adventurers besides me looking for them?"
Recalling Pei Sha's expression, Chen Mo could not help but ask.
Pei Sha nodded, "Yes, especially in the past few days. Many adventurers have come looking for them on the island, but none of them were able to find them and left in the end."
There were people looking for them in this place?
Did this mean that their whereabouts had been exposed?
Not many players knew Hai Ruo Ou and Hai Ruo Ou. The players who came looking for them must have accepted Leopold's quest.
It seemed that Hai Ruo Ou and Hai Ruo Ou could not stay here any longer. Fortunately, he had rushed over early. If he had come a little later, Leopold might have beaten him to it.
Thinking up to this point, Chen Mo hurriedly bid farewell and ran towards the west of the island.
"Sister, the seashells we collected today are pretty good. We can sell them for a good price!"
At the west of Star Sand Island, Hai Ruo Ou and Hai Ruo Ou walked out of the sea. Hai Ruo Ou looked at the seashells she had collected and said happily.
"Yeah, today's harvest is pretty good.
It's getting dark, so let's stop here for today. Let's go back first, "Hai Ruo Ou nodded.
The two of them collected the seashells they had collected and returned along the way.
However, just as the two of them entered the coconut grove by the coast, a team suddenly jumped out.
"That's right, it's the two of them!"
This team surrounded Hai Ruo Ou and Hai Ruo Ou and used a Detection skill on them. After confirming that the two's names were correct, one of them shouted excitedly.
"If we catch one, we'll get two pieces of Level 40 Purple equipment. If we catch two, we'll get five pieces of Purple equipment. We're rich!"
Thinking of the mission reward this time, the few of them were incomparably excited.
"Hai Ruo Ou, I'll hold them back later. You jump into the sea and escape by yourself!
Escape to a human city and find that person. Don't come back here! "
Hai Ruo Ou's face turned pale when she saw these people appear. However, she calmly said to Hai Ruo Ou.
She had expected this scene to happen a long time ago. A month ago, her strength was still above the players. However, now that the players had gone through their Second Job Advancement at Level 40, their strength had completely surpassed hers. It was absolutely impossible for her to escape with Hai Ruo Ou.
However, Hai Ruo Ou was confident that she could stall for time and buy time for Hai Ruo Ou to escape.
"No, I want to be with you, Sister!" Hai Ruo Ou shook her head fiercely.
"To avoid any more trouble, let's capture them first!"
The leader of the opposing team suppressed the joy in his heart and shouted loudly.
However, before they could do anything, a figure suddenly flashed out of the coconut grove and appeared in front of them, blocking their path.
…
The first one was even worse.
