185 The scepter and crown

The appearance of two human cultivators in the vast ocean was not something to be taken for granted. Furthermore, the Flying Ship had just been attacked, and there was the bugle horn that was related to the ocean blue scepter.

These two people were definitely related to the attack, and there was a 90% chance that they were from the Husheng trading company.

Lu Qing immediately sent a message to Lu mingchao and asked her to rush over and take care of these two people.

At the same time, Lu Qing was following the two of them and giving Lu mingchao directions.

The two of them had no idea that an old ghost was following them around. They were still talking.

I previously guessed that Lu mingchao might be on this flying boat. But isn't Zhenzhen just in the initial enlightenment stage? It hasn't been a few years, right?

Yup, Another person carrying a horn on his back said, there are so many Sharkmen. Not only is the Sharkman leader at the peak of Tier 2, but he also has something like the deep sea scepter. I'm afraid that even Chairman yang would not be able to deal with him easily. I wonder how Lu mingchao managed to do it, Qianqian.

Lu Qing had heard the entire conversation between the two of them.

It was basically confirmed that these two people were from the Husheng trading company. Furthermore, one of them was a cultivator from the Qingfeng sect.

The Husheng trading company was one of the Qingfeng sect's businesses. Yang Xiang, the chairman of the Husheng trading company, was also an initial enlightenment cultivator under the Qingfeng sect's sect leader. It was normal for the trading company to have cultivators from the sect.

Since that was the case, Lu Qing had an idea.

Lu Qing sent another message to mingchao and pointed her in the right direction. He even mentioned, When you come over, don't kill anyone if you can. Just capture them alive.

If they captured him alive, Husheng trading company would definitely get into a lot of trouble, and the Qingfeng sect would not be able to cover it up.

It would have been fine if it only involved the Lu family, but the gong Sun family was also involved.

[ 3-star Conquest event: Sharkman attack ]

[ reward: 889 karma, sea crown (Tier 3) ]

[ sea crown (three-star): with the crown, the wearer will possess the aura of the King of the Deep sea. The wearer will be able to control the corresponding sacred weapons like the extraordinary creatures in the deep sea. ]

Not long after, Lu mingchao caught up with the two cultivators who had escaped.

Capturing the two of them alive was not a problem at all. On the contrary, it was even more troublesome to bring them back to catch up with the swift Boat that had already left.

After capturing the other party alive, Lu Qing finally received a belated system message in the system. The crusade had finally been resolved.

As expected, Crusades all had conditions and goals to complete. They didn't necessarily have to kill all the opponents, but only needed to complete the established goal.

The goal of this attack was to escape and find the real instigator.

As for the reward, he had nearly 900 karma. The standard for this reward was a three-star event. Although no 3rd rank monsters had appeared during the Sharkmen's attack, there were simply too many of them. There were eight to nine 2nd rank Sharkmen, and the deep sea scepter was clearly an extraordinary sacred weapon. Hence, it was normal for the event to be considered a 3-star Crusade.

Lu Qing was quite happy that he had gained so many karma. However, he was more concerned about the extra reward.

Lu Qing had noticed the scepter that the Sharkman leader had been holding earlier. This thing was so special that it was impossible to not notice it.

In the beginning, Lu Qing had only thought that the scepter was a high-grade magic weapon. However, he was surprised that it could not be placed in a storage bag.

Not everything could be put in the storage bag. Living things and a few very special things could not be put in.

Lu Qing also had something like that. His Dragon Jade could not be placed in his storage bag, even when he had just obtained it and had not cultivated a Dragon Soul.

However, after Lu mingchao received the scepter, she tried to use it. She realized that there was no effect at all when she inserted her spiritual energy into it. Instead, there was a faint sense of rejection.

Previously, they had thought that it might be a problem with the nature of the spiritual energy. Some magic tools indeed required a specific attribute of spiritual power or a cultivator or creature with a specific spiritual root to control and use.

But now, it seemed that this was not the case.

From the bits and pieces of information revealed in the system message, Lu Qing noticed the term sacred object of the sea'.

Perhaps this scepter required a specific bloodline or race to be used?

The system was very considerate. After the crusade was over, it rewarded him with a sea crown'. As long as he wore the sea crown, he should be able to skip this restriction and directly use the deep sea scepter', right?

He could try.

Lu Qing immediately conjured this item from his consciousness. He was still cautious. Lu mingchao still had two captives with her. It would not be good to expose the matter of him conjuring them directly.

Hence, he did not directly materialize it next to Lu mingchao. Instead, he materialized it in the sea in front of him and sent a voice transmission to mingchao to get her to retrieve it.

In the eyes of the two captives, they were being held hostage and flying north. As they flew, Lu mingchao suddenly stopped and rushed into the sea below. Then, she fished out a metal crown that glowed with a cold, orchid-like light.

The two of them were dumbfounded. One look and they knew that this thing was not an ordinary item.

You can pick up things on the vast ocean?

However, this was not the most shocking thing.

They saw Lu mingchao putting the crown-like item on her head. Then, she took out the item wrapped in cloth that she had been carrying on her back all this time.

As he lifted the cloth, the pupils of the two people beside him constricted.

Back then, they had noticed from afar that Lu mingchao had finished off the shark man and had already expected that this item would end up in her hands. However, after seeing it with their own eyes, they still felt rather complicated.

Those who knew about it would understand that it was not ordinary.

Moreover, it would be a big problem if it fell into the hands of the humans. The people in the sea would not let it go.

More importantly, this thing had an extraordinary significance to the many races in the ocean. At the same time, it also symbolized great power. However, it was useless in the hands of human cultivators. This was the sacred item of the sea. Only the Children of the Sea could use the power within this scepter.

However, it was still very meaningful to obtain it. It could be used as a token to trade with a race in the sea.

But then, they saw an unbelievable scene-

Lu mingchao, who was wearing a crown, raised the deep sea scepter high. The round blue Pearl at the top of the scepter emitted a brilliant sapphire blue light. The ocean danced and rose, forming twenty to thirty flood Dragons formed by the ocean's spiritual power!

The flood Dragons circled Lu mingchao, dancing and roaring as if they were protecting a Queen!
