Chapter 464 Overlord Vs Black Monster !
The ebony monstrosity, a restless behemoth, had once reigned supreme in the Atlantic Ocean. It relentlessly terrorized fishing vessels and merchant ships and even claimed a United States Navy warship as its victim. Now, it had ventured into the vast expanse of the Pacific Ocean.
Qiu Yang, a stalwart figure on this maritime frontier, harbored deep concerns. "Boss, our presence in the Atlantic was sparse, but the Pacific is different. There's an incessant traffic of ships here."
Liu Yong, a seasoned leader known for his astute thinking, nodded in acknowledgment. After a thoughtful pause, he offered solace, "Don't fret too much, let me mull it over."
Qiu Yang had immense trust in Liu Yong's capabilities. If the boss said there was a solution, then undoubtedly, there was.
As Qiu Yang left, Liu Yong turned his attention to the interface displaying his array of aquatic companions. His gaze settled on the majestic Overlord.
Recently, the Overlord had staked its territory in the South Pacific waters. It hunted fiercely, targeting whales, great white sharks, and even creatures as peculiar as walruses and seals. It had ventured close to the Antarctic in a daring move, feasting on unsuspecting penguins. However, the Overlord found the penguins bland and the frigid waters unwelcoming.
"Overlord, that colossal black menace has surfaced once more," Liu Yong's voice resounded within the Overlord's consciousness, reinvigorating its alertness.
"Master, are you referring to that 300-meter-long black behemoth? I crossed paths with it in the past," the Overlord responded with newfound vigor.
"Yes, the very same. This creature is excessively savage and aggressive, with a penchant for assaulting vessels. I shudder at the thought of our own ships falling victim to its aggression."
"Master, where is it? I'll take care of it."
Liu Yong promptly disclosed the creature's location and cautioned, "Be vigilant. Engaging it head-on might not be prudent. We'll employ the same tactics as before – harassment."
"I understand, Master. You can count on me."
Liu Yong reiterated that their objective was to drive the colossal black beast back to the Atlantic without causing it harm.
The Overlord embarked on its mission, armed with its colossal spear, venturing to the sea region specified by Liu Yong. A few hours prior, the enormous black beast had savagely attacked a fishing vessel, leaving three fishermen missing.
The Overlord was stationed over a thousand nautical miles away, a suitable distance for its capabilities. With a speed surpassing 300 nautical miles per hour, it traversed the vast expanse quickly.
Upon arrival, the Overlord discovered only remnants of a shattered fishing vessel floating amidst the calm ocean. There were no signs of any ship or the colossal black entity.
Undeterred, the Overlord commenced an underwater search, combing the depths around the site where the fishing vessel had met its unfortunate fate.
"Hopefully, it hasn't ventured too far," the Overlord pondered as it scoured the ocean depths.
After approximately an hour of fruitless searching, the Overlord contemplated taking a brief respite and satisfying its hunger.
A majestic blue whale captured its attention. The Overlord approached stealthily, forgoing its sprinting abilities, instead relying on its innate speed to draw near.
This location lay nearly a hundred nautical miles from the attack site of the fishing vessel, suggesting that the colossal black beast likely hadn't strayed too far.
With a swift motion, the Overlord clamped its jaws around the massive blue whale, its bite landing precisely on its back. Despite the blue whale's desperate struggles, they proved futile against the Overlord's overwhelming might.
In strength and stature, the Overlord eclipsed the blue whale. It made for an unfortunate feast for the Overlord, a spectacle that drew the attention of nearby sharks.
Though drawn by the scent of blood, these carnivorous predators dared not approach. Not even the formidable great white sharks, typically apex predators, dared to contest the Overlord's dominance.
Unperturbed by external distractions, the Overlord savored its meal in serene solitude. In a matter of half an hour, the behemoth of the ocean, a more than 30-meter-long, nearly 200-ton blue whale, met its end in the Overlord's belly.
"Now, I'm halfway full. Should I hunt another or simply bask in the sun?" the Overlord contemplated.
The day graced them with splendid weather – calm waves and gentle sunlight. The Overlord, submerged only a few meters beneath the surface, relished the sun's warmth.
However, it refrained from fully emerging from the water. Liu Yong had cautioned against such behavior, warning of the risk of human detection. An appearance on the water's surface might attract unwanted attention from passing ships or satellites.
Thus, the Overlord contentedly basked, contemplating its next move while vigilant for any sign of the colossal black adversary.
After 30 to 40 minutes of reprieve, a sudden sense of foreboding gripped the Overlord.
This isn't good; danger lurks nearby!
In an instant, the Overlord was on high alert, leaping a thousand meters from its current location. The colossal black beast, spanning 300 meters in length, had initiated an ambush.
Unbelievable! It was attempting to ambush me, mimicking the tactics I once employed.
Maintaining a distance of at least five to six hundred meters between them, the two titanic beings faced off twenty to thirty meters beneath the surface.
After a brief standoff, the colossal black beast prepared to charge, but the Overlord deftly evaded.
It must have been infuriated.
It couldn't stand the thought of the Overlord eluding it. Thus, it gave chase, propelling itself with all its might. The spectacle unfolded with the Overlord leading the way and the colossal black beast pursuing relentlessly.
The black beast erupted in frustration as it lost track of the Overlord. In terms of speed, it fell significantly short of the Overlord's prowess. Catching up was an insurmountable challenge.
Was the Overlord truly gone?
No, it lingered merely two or three kilometers away. It faintly discerned the colossal black beast's form in the distance with its superhuman vision.
The Overlord exercised caution, meticulously selecting its direction in line with the ocean currents, ensuring that any scent it emitted would be swiftly carried away by the water's flow.
In the distance, it spotted an indistinct yet colossal black silhouette pulsating like a storm, and the Overlord breathed a sigh of relief.
Heh, you can't catch me.
Just wait and watch as I outsmart you.
If you dare, enter my Pacific domain, then brace yourself for my retribution. The Overlord was resolute in its intent.
