Chapter 225 Tidal Water Ghost
"All you do is eat, has your magic power fully recovered?" Mu Nujiao reached out and tapped Ai Tutu's forehead.
Ai Tutu took a bite of the beef skewer and said with a grin, "I've almost recovered. But I must say, Jiang Han's barbecue skills are really good. I wish we could go out for barbecue every day."
"You still want to come out for barbecues every day? This island is full of dangers, be careful you don't lose your life here," Mu Nujiao said.
After smelling the aroma of beef and mutton skewers, Xue Ling came to Jiang Han's feet and kept rubbing against them. Even Xiao Shi, who hadn't appeared for a long time, came out of the system space. One of the two little guys was floating in front of the barbecue grill with glistening drool, while the other was lying at Jiang Han's feet, staring intently at the meat on the barbecue grill.
"You two are such little gluttons." Jiang Han said, taking out two skewers of grilled meat and handing them to the two little ones.
After Xiao Shi and Xue Ling took the skewers, they began to feast. By the time Jiang Han finished grilling the beef and mutton skewers and other ingredients and started eating, Xiao Shi, Xue Ling, and Ai Tu Tu were already full.
"This feels so good." Ai Tutu sat in front of the fire with Xue Ling in her arms, looking completely content.
Jiang Han sat leisurely on the fire, eating barbecue and drinking beverages, while Mu Nujiao had already returned to her tent to cultivate. Only Ai Tutu, with her carefree nature, would sit on the fire and play around with Xue Ling.
The island wasn't very quiet at night. Apart from the chirping of insects, there were the strange cries of sea monsters. If you were a light sleeper, you probably wouldn't be able to fall asleep. Perhaps because he was too tired from the day's battle, Jiang Han fell asleep not long after lying down in his tent.
·······
In the middle of the night, the rocky beach near the island was submerged by the suddenly rising sea. A chilling and eerie mist appeared near the rocky beach as the sea rose, and then a strange creature covered in gray hair emerged from the eerie mist.
This strange creature was similar in size and appearance to the sea monkey monster, but unlike the sea monkey monster, it was not weak in combat and did not have the backbone to become a servant of a powerful demon clan. Its deep blue eyes were full of savagery.
These strange creatures are the Tide Ghosts that appear with the rising tide, and the adult Tide Ghosts are no less powerful than the Crimson Demon.
At high tide, the tide ghosts would come to the island with the rising seawater and attack various creatures. Temporary hunters or sea monsters living there would be their prey. When the tide receded, they would take the various creatures they captured into the seawater as food. Therefore, the other sea monsters living on the island hated the tide ghosts very much.
Whenever the Tide Ghosts arrive on the island with the rising tide, the sea monsters living at the forefront of the island, such as the Azure Scaled Sea Monster, the Shallow Water Giant Crab, and the Sea Monkey Monster, will be the first to engage in a great battle with the Tide Ghosts. Only when the Azure Scaled Sea Monster, the Shallow Water Giant Crab, and the Sea Monkey Monster are unable to withstand the attack will the Crimson Ling Demon join the fray and engage in a final battle with the Tide Ghosts who have arrived on the island.
However, during the daytime, most of the sea monsters living at the forefront of the island, such as the Azure Scale Sea Monster, the Shallow Water Giant Crab, and the Sea Monkey Monster, were slaughtered by Jiang Han. The remaining sea monsters did not last long before they fell and became cold corpses under the attack of hundreds of tidal water ghosts.
Perhaps sensing the arrival of the tidal water ghosts, the Crimson Demons living on the island began to roar angrily.
"Gagaga gagaga~~~~~~"
In the camp, Ai Tutu, who was sleeping soundly, rubbed his eyes and came out of the tent while holding Xue Ling. He asked in confusion, "Hmm~, what are the sirens yelling about? Don't they know that this is really affecting my beauty sleep?"
With a loud bang, the ice-based defensive fortifications Jiang Han had constructed were breached by a six- or seven-meter-long sea monster covered in crimson scales, its claws tearing open a gap in the structure. Ai Tutu also instantly regained consciousness amidst the loud noise.
Ai Tutu stared in shock at the six- or seven-meter-long sea monster covered in crimson scales and exclaimed, "Holy crap, it's a Crimson Ling Demon!!!"
"Buzz~" The space trembled, and a transparent giant claw suddenly appeared, grabbed the Crimson Demon, and threw it away violently.
"If you had woken up any later, you probably wouldn't have seen this battle of the sea monsters," Jiang Han said calmly.
Ai Tutu then noticed that Jiang Han and Mu Nujiao had come out quite early. Two huge undead giant lizard pseudo-dragons were circling in mid-air. If the space hadn't been a bit small, Jiang Han would have wanted to summon all the undead lizard skull giants in the dimensional space.
However, the mere aura emanating from the two undead giant lizard pseudo-dragons was enough to keep the Crimson Demon and Tide Ghost from getting close. As for the Crimson Demon that Ai Tutu saw, it was simply being knocked away by the Tide Ghost.
"Isn't that a sea monkey monster? When did they become so bold as to attack the Crimson Demon?" Ai Tutu asked.
"Those aren't sea monkey monsters, but the tidal water ghosts Jiang Han mentioned. Although they resemble sea monkey monsters in appearance, their strength is in no way inferior to the Crimson Ling Demon," Mu Nujiao explained.
"Are you sleepy? If you are, go back to sleep first. I'll take care of things here," Jiang Han said.
Mu Nujiao did not refuse Jiang Han's suggestion, but as she turned to leave, she said, "Then I'll come out and relieve you later."
After saying that, Mu Nujiao pulled Ai Tutu back to the tent to rest. Although Ai Tutu was a little reluctant, he still carried Xue Ling back to his own tent to rest. After Ai Tutu and Mu Nujiao left, Jiang Han also turned his attention to the Tide Water Ghost and Chi Ling Yao fighting in the distance.
The Tide Ghoul is shrouded in a cold mist, making it almost impossible to spot without careful observation. Most importantly, the cold mist has a corrosive effect on other creatures, which may be why the Hunter Mage cannot provide the Hunter Alliance with detailed information about the Tide Ghoul. In addition, the sharpness of the Tide Ghoul's claws is in no way inferior to that of the Crimson Demon.
Under the cover of the cold mist, the Tide Water Ghost and the Crimson Ling Demon were evenly matched. If it weren't for the fear that killing the Tide Water Ghost and the Crimson Ling Demon would trigger two waves of sea monsters attacking them, Jiang Han would have gone to earn system points long ago.
The power of the undead giant lizard pseudo-dragon is enough to frighten the Tide Water Ghost and the Crimson Ling Demon, but the undead giant lizard pseudo-dragon is ultimately not the leader of their race. If Jiang Han goes too far, he will definitely be besieged, and it may even attract the leader-level creatures of the two races. If that happens, it will be troublesome.
Although no commander-level creatures appeared when the Demon Gathering Device was used during the day, who can guarantee that there are no commander-level creatures on this island?
Around six or seven in the morning, a strange cry came from the beach. After the cry ended, the Tide Ghosts, who were fighting the Crimson Demon, began to retreat towards the beach, carrying various corpses. The Crimson Demon took this opportunity to hunt down the Tide Ghosts.
"Gagagagaga~~~~" Hundreds of Crimson Demons followed behind the Tide Water Ghosts, roaring excitedly.
The slow-moving Tide Ghosts would be pounced on and surrounded by several Crimson Demons. By the time the Crimson Demons chased the Tide Ghosts to the sea, hundreds of Tide Ghosts had already died on the island, and the Crimson Demons were not much better off, with nearly a hundred of them also dead.
Just as Chi Lingyao was about to continue chasing the Tide Water Ghost, Jiang Han, who was standing on the back of the undead giant lizard pseudo-dragon in mid-air, saw a cloud of cold, bluish-purple mist suddenly appear on the sea surface. The mist seemed to have a spirit and drifted towards Chi Lingyao, who was chasing the Tide Water Ghost.
Upon seeing the approaching bluish-purple mist, the Crimson Demons immediately fled towards the island. Dozens of the slower demons were enveloped in the mist, and then a mournful cry rang out from within it.
After the bluish-purple mist dissipated, the dozens of Crimson Demons that had been shrouded in it turned into piles of white bones.
Standing atop the undead giant lizard pseudo-dragon, Jiang Han stared at the shadow hidden in the seawater below and said, "Could this be a leader-level creature from the Tide Ghoul clan?"
