Chapter 647
Although Gehrman Sparrow didn’t show it on his face, Cattleya seemed to notice the surprise in him . She simply explained, “It’s a kind of flight that makes it impossible for the Death Announcer to continue its pursuit . ”

Just as she said that, she discovered that Gehrman Sparrow had completely changed his attire . He wore a round neck shirt, a brown jacket, pantaloons with a dark-colored cap . He didn’t look like an adventurer and instead resembled a native of the City of Generosity, Bayam .
According to Nina, his clothes were drenched by a huge wave last night… Does he only have one set of decent clothes? Cattleya recalled and found the reason .
She wasn’t surprised by this . She even felt that it matched Gehrman Sparrow’s insanity . He only had one set of decent clothes, spending the rest of his money on mystical items, Beyonder weapons, spirituality charms—with the sole goal of raising his strength .
It’s no wonder the King of Immortality gave up . All he did was attack passing ships . There wasn’t enough hatred to drive him to pursue us the entire way… Yes, in front of the Four Kings, senior pirate admirals still have a chance to escape to a certain degree…
Almost arriving… Man, I haven’t completed my digestion…
However, acting as the crazy adventurer yesterday seemed rather effective . The crew of the Future gave a very spontaneous and warm response towards it . I should completely digest it in two to three days . And even if we entered the dangerous waters, finding mermaids wouldn’t be that simple . I should have enough time… Klein nodded and suppressed his urge to ask . He planned on passing by Admiral of Stars and head to his usual spot to have breakfast .
At this moment, he saw a pirate who was carrying a blue fish which was alive and kicking rush in . He went straight for a corner .
Seated there was the second mate of the Future, Heath Doyle . His face was nearly transparent from the paleness, and his nose bridge was rather unharmonious .
Pa!
The fish which was nearly a meter long was placed in front of Bloodless .
Heath Doyle extended his hands and pressed down on the fish . He bent his body bit by bit as he inched his head downwards, plastering his face to the scales as though he was kissing it .
Suddenly, the fish stiffened and, like wax meeting fire, melted rapidly and turned into a disgusting pool of flesh and blood .
The flesh and blood surged into Heath Doyle’s mouth like liquid as they covered his skin .
Amidst the horrendous sight of the squirming, the fish and all the bones, flesh, and blood vanished . Nothing was left behind as Heath Doyle’s face appeared very clean . All that was left was the bright red color on his lips like a blooming rose .

Rose Bishop… The name of the Sequence surfaced in Klein’s mind .
Cattleya, who was beside him, also saw the scene as she nudged her glasses .
“Every Rose Bishop needs to replenish themselves with enough blood and flesh . That way, they can fully showcase their Beyonder powers and not lose control after being injured as a result of an intense battle .
Her lips curled slightly as she added, “However, the lunatics from the Aurora Order have an inclination towards human flesh and blood . Actually, substitutes would work fine . ”
From the looks of it, this Bloodless with a bounty of 7,600 pounds is really lucky . On the one hand, he’s lucky to achieve Sequence 6 at once without any abnormalities or losing control . On the other hand, joining Admiral of Stars’s pirate crew is another . Without the secret knowledge that this lady who is being pursued by knowledge possesses, he might’ve turned into a monster that desires human flesh and blood sooner or later, even if he didn’t listen to the True Creator’s voice… Klein sighed silently .
He was increasingly convinced that the Secrets Suppliant pathway, which was also the Shepherd pathway, was the Beyonder pathway which was the easiest to lose control and turn mad . Nothing came close; even the Abyss pathway, which represented evil, was slightly lacking .
Klein retracted his gaze, and just as he was about to take a step forward, the entire ship jolted .
In an instant, the scene ahead of the Future naturally surfaced in Klein’s mind .
The blue sea was being separated by a gigantic crack as infinite amounts of seawater plummeted down into bottomless darkness like a waterfall!
This scene was magnificent and mystical . It made one suspect if they weren’t on Earth .
Whoosh!
The Future wasn’t able to stop in time as it rushed to the edge and quickly plummeted .
Bang! Bang! Bang!
All the pirates in the dining hall flew up and slammed into the ceiling . Toast, white bread, butter, margarine, beer, and roasted fish flew around at random without settling down .

Klein also lost his balance as he couldn’t help but be thrown towards the ceiling .
He extended his palm in time and pressed upwards, quickly adjusting his posture like an acrobatic act, allowing him to look less pathetic .
Not far away, Nina showcased her stunning balance . With the help of the ceiling, she maintained her posture . Perhaps intentionally or unintentionally, she extended her feet and kicked Frank to send the Poison Expert flying diagonally to a beer barrel, drenching him with pale yellow liquid .
At this moment, the most casual and unfazed person was Cattleya . Stars swirled around her as the resplendence beneath her feet coagulated, causing her to float in midair . She wasn’t affected by the sudden dip .
Apart from her, Bloodless was the least pathetic . At some point in time, this Rose Bishop had blended into the shadows and disappeared .
With the Future about to plummet into the bottomless crevice, a plume of water surged up suddenly!
It held up the ship and threw it high into the air and towards the other edge .
After momentarily floating in the air, Klein believed that the Future had landed stably on the surface of the sea . Once again, the charm from the Sea God domain, which he held tightly in his right hand, wasn’t used .
At that moment, the sunlight outside the window shone inside, illuminating the mess inside the dining hall .
Klein, who had long regained his balance, briskly walked to the window and saw that the endless sea seemed to be burning with golden flames . It appeared to have been noon the entire time .
It was only morning moments ago!
Klein looked up and narrowed his eyes to see that the sky was filled with sunlight . There were no clouds nor the sun, just a swath of golden rays .
It’s no wonder Arrodes’s description of this place is that it’s no longer a real ocean, but a relic of a war between the gods .
As he swept his gaze, he discovered nearby ruins which were diagonally ahead .

The ruins were mostly covered by seawater . Protruding out from the surface was gray stones and stone columns that formed a peak . At the top was a dome-like object . From its angle, it was able to hold up quite a large area of space .
The ruins were definitely massive in the first place . Through the transparent waters, Klein saw that its base extended to the seabed without end .
“These are extremely dangerous waters . ” At some point in time, Cattleya came beside him .
Klein turned his head over and waited for her to continue .
Cattleya’s gaze was cast forward as she said somewhat wistfully, “I haven’t been here many times . Furthermore, all my visits happened a long time ago . ”
“My” and not “our”… That means that it wasn’t with the crew of the Future… Or was it back when she was a subordinate of Queen Mystic? Klein acutely noticed the terms which Admiral of Stars had used as he made a guess .
Cattleya didn’t turn her head as she looked at the sky and sea which were covered in golden flames .
“No one knows where the ends of these waters are . Nor does anyone know how wide it is .
“Do you know what’s most dangerous about this place?”
… I should’ve gotten Arrodes to give me a more detailed explanation… Klein honestly shook his head .
Previously, he had nearly been caught by a demigod of the True Creator . He had only survived thanks to the Die of Probability; therefore, in the past two months, he didn’t dare bring the radio transceiver back to the real world . He was afraid that the True Creator, who was closely watching the region, would sense it . Hence, he didn’t have an opportunity to contact Arrodes .
His original plan was to seek out Will Auceptin’s help through the paper crane once he approached the dangerous waters, and understand the corresponding dangers of the environment . To his surprise, they had encountered King of Immortality Agalito, and the Future didn’t give him any time before they arrived at their destination .
Behind the thick glasses, Cattleya’s black eyes with a purple hue glazed over for a moment .
“There are many ruins floating here . There are all kinds of mutated monsters . Among them include many demigods who have lost control or ancient evil creatures .
“This isn’t the most dangerous part . If it’s only because of this, these waters would’ve become a hunting ground for the seven Churches, a treasure trove for them to obtain High-Sequence ingredients or items . Of course, there are many monsters and evil creatures who have lost control here, but they might not be real . They can kill us, but they might not leave anything behind after they are killed . ”
Upon hearing this, Klein made the connection to the Dragon of Imagination, Ankewelt .
This dragon king could conjure anything through his imagination!
Could it be that these waters were where the ancient gods of the Second Epoch fought? Klein nearly frowned .
Cattleya said with an ethereal voice as she continued, “Here, you will never guess what dangers you will encounter next . Perhaps you will just melt while approaching a ruin, turning into a wax-like monster . Perhaps you might turn into a rock amidst the storms from slightly deviating from the explored sea routes and end up shattering to pieces .
“To Beyonders at our level, that is the greatest danger . ”
Klein turned his head slightly as he sharply asked, “What about Beyonders that surpass our levels?”
Cattleya sighed and smiled .
“The waters here are filled with a voice that shouldn’t be heard .
“The higher the Sequence, the easier it is to hear it . Therefore, most demigods who dare explore these waters have ended up with problems . They either went mad or lost control, ending up lost here forever . ”
It’s no wonder the seven Churches don’t send their experts here to reap the harvest… Most of them ended up with problems… Which means that there are a small number of demigods that can survive here? Enlightened, Klein looked out the window again .
At this moment, the Future had closed in on the ruins .
Suddenly, a loud and clear panting was heard by everyone!
