Lei Luo flew to the hunting area overnight. The scale in his hand was already engraved with words, and it recorded half of [Characteristic Synthesis] cultivation method.
The words on the scales glowed a faint green in the night.
If one observed carefully, they would discover that these words were slowly dissipating, as if they could not be recorded.
Lei Luo looked around in surprise and quickly looked for high-leveled sea beasts.
Not long after, a Level-5 Indigo Jellyfish appeared.
"I choose you." Lei Luo's lips curled up as he tossed the scale forward. At the same time, he controlled the flow of water and made the scale stop just in front of the Indigo Jellyfish.
The words on the scale quickly dissipated after leaving Lei Luo's side, but the Indigo Jellyfish still saw some of the records.
The river of time seemed to stop for a moment.
Then, in Lei Luo's eyes, the Indigo Jellyfish, which originally had a strong life force, suddenly shattered and dissipated, as if it had never appeared.
There were no energy fluctuations. It was simply a silent display of great terror.
The scale that had been thrown out also dissipated.
Lei Luo swallowed and took two involuntary steps back.
He finally understood a little bit about the power of his Ancestor. This was definitely the tip of the iceberg. After all, the origin power of his Ancestor was poison, yet he didn't display it earlier.
"This is what happens when you read half of the records. What if one looks deeper into my memory?"
"The image of the Ancestor is in my memory. In that case, it shouldn't be a problem for the Ancestor to defeat a Demigod, right?"
"The only difficult part is luring them to view my memories. Also, I can't be killed when we meet. I have to plan this carefully."
Lei Luo's eyes flickered as many thoughts came to mind.
Using his memories as a sword to kill his enemies was a passive form of defense. After all, he still had to wait for someone to come knocking on his door. If he could directly release his memories, then he would truly have the initiative.
The method to release his memories seemed to have been recorded in his inherited memories, but he didn't notice it last time.
Lei Luo recalled seriously and quickly remembered. In his inherited memories, there was a method to release his memories. However, he could only use it twice in a year. If he used it more than twice, it would easily cause damage to his brain and decrease his intelligence.
If the damage was serious, it would cause his brain to shrink. Then, he would enter a vegetative state.
"This is good stuff. Could it be that my ancestors have thought of the same method as me and specially developed it?"
Lei Luo wagged his tail excitedly and began to learn how to release his memories.
The techniques recorded in the inherited memories all had a summary of his precedessors's experiences. According to their experience, if one wasn't too stupid, they would learn this technique very quickly.
After getting the results he wanted, Lei Luo decided not to go back. Instead, he started researching underwater.
Three days later, after a few failed attempts, Lei Luo finally released his memories regarding [Characteristic Synthesis].
The sea within a range of 100 kilometers froze for a moment before returning to normal.
If a Legendary expert was here, they would discover that there were no longer any living creatures in the 100-kilometer area, including microorganisms in the water.
After projecting his memories, Lei Luo's face paled slightly, but he looked happier.
This was his last resort and also his strongest attack.
"After this, I'll join them and go in. I wonder what happened in the depths of the sea over the past few days."
Then, Lei Luo turned back to his island.
…
"Sharbao, where do you think the Lord Poison Dragon went? He hasn't returned for three days. Could he have already gone to the depths of the sea?"
"The human experts are brutal."
"How would I know? We'll wait for half a month. If the Lord Poison Dragon still hasn't returned, we'll ask the human merchants for information."
"Many stakeholders have been implicated this time. Furthermore, many experts have been dispatched. The Lord Poison Dragon should be hesitating."
"If something unexpected happens…"
Sharbao glared at Shardin, causing Shardin to swallow the latter half of his sentence. "It's only been three days. What nonsense are you talking about?"
Just as he was about to reprimand him further, Sharbao's gaze shifted to a rock on the left.
That rock seemed to have moved a little.
Shardin looked over as well, puzzled. "Why are you looking at that rock? Such rocks can be found all over the island. It's not unusual."
"It's nothing. Maybe I'm seeing things." Sharbao shook his head.
A few hours later, the rock disappeared and Lei Luo flew back from the distance.
He did not want Sharbao and the rest to know about his abilities, but the two of them could be his test subjects to see how good he was at the Camouflage Spell.
He had tested it once before, and this was the second time. His rock disguise could come to an end and he could practice other disguises.
"If I disguise myself as a rock, I can use it when I'm running for my life. Next, in order to participate in the operation in the depths of the sea, I need to have an identity."
"The Merman Race isn't bad. I should familiarize myself with them as soon as possible."
Lei Luo landed on the island with many thoughts running through his mind.
Shardin and Shardin were still resting on the island. When they saw Lei Luo, they hurried forward to welcome him. "Lord Poison Dragon, you're back."
"Yes." Lei Luo nodded slightly. "I will conduct the test on Shardin in a few days. If everything is fine, you are allowed to return to the Merman Race for a period of time. Shardin, repeat the information you collected."
Shardin waved his arms excitedly and retreated to the side while Sharbao repeated the information.
Lei Luo was simply patronizing them. He was more focused on observing their appearances.
The Camouflage Spell could change his appearance and aura, but this change was based on one's knowledge.
What did the Merman Race look like? What kind of aura did they have? The Camouflage Spell would transform him into what he thought the Merman Race was. If the deviation was too great, outsiders would be able to tell at a glance that something was wrong. Once they checked his identity, Lei Luo would be exposed.
It was difficult to imagine things out of thin air, but it was much easier to have a live merman in front of him.
…
Five days later, Lei Luo summoned Shardin and Sharbao to the island in the morning and announced that he would be testing Shardin. Meanwhile, Sharbao stayed behind.
Lei Luo used the memory extraction spell and didn't discover any intentions from Shardin. Thus, he released Shardin from the island.
As he watched Shardin disappear from sight, Lei Luo turned to Sharbao and said, "I'll be gone for a while. If I don't return within a month, you can go back to the Merman Race on your own."
With that said, he soared into the sky and pretended to head towards the sea where he usually hunted. In reality, he circled around and followed behind Shardin.
As they swam under the sea, Lei Luo began to cast his Camouflage Spell.
There was a huge difference between the size of the mermen and the dragons. Thus, it would take longer to cast the spell. However, with Shardin as a comparison object, there would be no mistake.
Shardin swam ahead, oblivious to the presence of a Poison Dragon casting spells behind him.
Originally, it would have taken him four days to return to the sea region of the Merman Race. However, since he was in a hurry to return, it only took him two days.
When he reached the sea region of the Merman Race, Shardin was shocked.
The surface of the sea was filled with human ships that covered the entire sea area. There were also three large ships that were 100 meters long around the island above the Merman Race. Each of the ships had a flag at their highest point.
Sardin only recognized two of the flags. One of them was a magic flag representing the Mage Union, while the other was a cross between two swords of the Mercenary Guild.
The remaining flag depicted a ferocious-looking dagger.
Shardin did not recognize it, but Lei Luo did.
The hunting flag that represented the Assassin Alliance was usually raised when hunting powerful creatures. Typically, the Assassin Alliance would keep a low profile so that ordinary people would not be able to come into contact with them.
The three great factions of the human world must have found something behind the scenes.
