In the end, Grumpy Little Rabbit had no choice but to accept reality.
After all, saving the sea elves was the main mission. Every day that the sea elves weren’t liberated, he wouldn’t be able to break through the level limit and would stay at level 5 forever.
What’s more, there were merfolk NPCs in the clan. They were very good to him. If he could rescue them, he would suffer a bit again…
Grumpy Little Rabbit pouted.
He couldn’t help feeling numb when he thought about the past two months, alone in the deep sea, experiencing death and resurrection again and again.
He had only been ashore for a week. Did he have to go back to look for abuse so soon?
Perhaps she sensed the child’s mood, but Qing Yan patted his shoulder with a smile and said, “Don’t worry. We are here. We won’t let you die so many times this time.”
Qing Yan was naturally among the top ten on the rankings.
However, she wasn’t the team leader this time. The captain was Lin Mu, who ranked first.
Thinking of this, she couldn’t help glancing at the other party, still a bit angry in her heart.
If she hadn’t been busy changing her profession to a card master these days, her ranking wouldn’t have dropped and Lin Mu wouldn’t have taken first place.
“Lin, you have to command well this time. It won’t be a good sight if we die too many times.”
Lin Mu ignored her strange anger. He glanced at Grumpy Little Rabbit and whispered, “Among us, you have the lowest level and are in the most danger. However, you are also the most important.”
“Without you, we won’t be able to find the sea elf clan. We also probably wouldn’t be able to get in even if we found it.”
“So after entering the water, don’t leave our protective circle.”
Then he took out a communicator from his backpack and said, “Put this on.”
“Starry Sky Age isn’t as convenient as other games where there is a ready-made map to see the location of the team members. But the communicator can be used as a substitute.”
After knowing that Grumpy Little Rabbit had been active in the sea and didn’t know a lot of common sense, Lin Mu patiently explained it to him.
“Wear this communicator. If we accidentally get separated, we can find you through this location.”
At this time, Qing Yan frowned. “There is no signal under the sea, right?”
“Yes.”
Lin Mu nodded. Then he took out five round magnet-like things. “This is a small signal instrument that I exchanged for in the faction warehouse. It can transmit signals.”
“As long as it is installed on the communicator, two communicators can be connected within a certain range, even if the signal of the base station can’t be connected.”
Due to the limited number, he only gave it to Grumpy Little Rabbit and the top five players.
There were no more in the faction warehouse.
Qing Yan couldn’t help curling her lips when she heard this.
She knew about the small signal device, but as soon as it came online in the faction warehouse, she didn’t know who snatched it away. She hadn’t expected it to be Lin Mu!
Lin Mu had already continued talking.
“We have the team voice channel, so we don’t need to use the communicator normally. We only need to use it when the team is separated.”
“Once that time comes, those who can’t be located should die and return to the city on their own. Those who can locate others should find a way to gather up. Of course, the most important thing is to find Grumpy Little Rabbit and protect him.”
“He is the key to the success of our mission!”
Grumpy Little Rabbit’s face turned red as he listened to the captain’s words. At the same time, he felt warm in his heart.
It seemed he was back to the bottom of the sea this time…
It was definitely different from when he went to land.
“I… I will try my best to protect myself and not hold back my brothers and sisters!” The young man carefully put on the communicator and promised a bit shyly.
Qing Yan couldn’t help grinning. She reached out and rubbed his head. Ah, this kid was really well-behaved.
“Okay, just listen to Leader Lin.”
She heard Lin Mu’s words and knew that he had done his homework. She had nothing to say and there was nothing she could do except actively cooperate.
After all, there could only be one leader in the team. She knew this better than anyone else.
Seeing that the biggest thorn was willing to cooperate, Lin Mu couldn’t help sighing with relief. It wasn’t in vain that he spent so much.
Next, he went on to make other arrangements.
Once everyone remembered it, he finally commanded the team to go to sea.
Chamo and Sea Song had been watching them from the side.
As they spoke, they used the team voice channel so only their mouths opening and closing could be seen. Chamo and Sea Song couldn’t hear the specific content.
Chamo’s eyes fell on Grumpy Little Rabbit again. His eyes flickered slightly.
But…
As long as the sea elves could be saved and Sea Song could find his family, what did it matter if something was wrong with this boy?
At least he wouldn’t really die if he encountered danger after going into the water… this way, he could feel more at ease.
Before leaving, the black-haired boy turned to look at them, waved and even showed a smile.
Obviously, he was so frightened that his face paled just now. It wasn’t known how he regained his courage.
Sea Song also waved at him and shouted in a cute voice that he must come back safely. Grumpy Little Rabbit’s eyes turned red and he looked like he was about to cry.
“Wu wu wu, will Little Rabbit come back?”
The little child asked sadly as he watched them gradually get closer to the sea.
“He will.”
Chamo rubbed his head and said, “You have to believe in His Majesty. His decision… definitely won’t be wrong.”
The mood of the players wasn’t heavy at all. Those who stayed on shore and couldn’t go together were extremely envious. The ten-person team who went on the mission was also inexplicably excited.
“Fly!”
At this time, Lin Mu whispered in the channel.
The two wind elementalists responded. They used their wind elemental skills on their teammates.
Now that their strength had increased to three and a half stars, they could control the flight of five to six people at a time. They were completely comfortable.
Grumpy Little Rabbit felt his body get lighter as his feet slowly lifted off the ground.
He was mentally prepared after hearing the order but an incredible look still appeared on his face when he actually took off.
“I’m really flying!”
The boy couldn’t help dancing. “Sister Qing Yan, look!”
Every human being probably had a dream of flying since childhood.
There was almost no child who hadn’t dreamed of flying when he was a child. Some people even said that they dreamed of flying due to their bodies growing taller.
Grumpy Little Rabbit was excited, but the technical content of flying was very demanding. The first time they made contact, he couldn’t keep his balance in the air, let alone fly smoothly.
Seeing how embarrassed he was stumbling around, Qing Yan had no choice but to grab his collar and take him with her.
The other nine people spontaneously protected the two of them.
“Set off!”
At Lin Mu’s command, the team of 11 players flew into the sky and officially headed toward the vast sea.
Even Chamo hadn’t expected that they would choose to fly over and wait until they were at a close location before entering the water.
He had to say that this was indeed a smart approach.
The sky above the sea might be densely populated by flying interstellar beasts, but the danger factor was undoubtedly much lower than the sea.
Chamo watched them from a distance before suddenly smiling.
He originally had no confidence in this trip, but suddenly, he couldn’t help looking forward to what type of miracle these braves could create.
“Little Rabbit, turn on the concealment device,” Lin Mu commanded in the voice channel again.
“Yes!”
Little Rabbit took out the necklace that Chamo had given him, pondered for a moment and released a dark blue transparent halo.
He looked at the system notification and said in the channel:
“As long as we are within this halo, we will become invisible in the eyes of the interstellar beasts. But our physical form is still there. If we touch the beast, we will still be discovered.”
Lin Mu’s expression sank when he heard the explanation.
It wasn’t because there was something wrong with what he said, but due to a group of small interstellar beasts appearing in front of them.
They flew in from the distant sky, presumably attracted by the onlookers on the shore who were watching them go out to sea. They came to look for food.
The flying beasts were so dense that there were no gaps at all for them to pass through.
Could it be that this expedition was going to fail so soon? Lin Mu was about to order everyone to disperse but…
A transparent knife suddenly appeared in the sky in front of them, cutting the space into pieces.
It looked ordinary, but the flying beasts couldn’t even scream when cut by the space. Blood spilled into the water.
This scene looked so shocking.
Lin Mu was stunned for a moment. He turned around suddenly and saw a man with short, gray-haired hair on the beach raising a hand in their direction.
Powerful energy surged around his body and his hair and robes flew up.
Chamo was so strong!
As he was in daze, a voice suddenly sounded in his ears, “Brother, Chamo said to keep flying forward. He will give you a ride.”
“Come on, brothers and sisters!”
The little child’s voice was so cute that it reminded Lin Mu of his sister when she was little.
He took a deep breath, adjusted his emotions, explained something in the team channel and gave an order again.
It was only then that everyone realized Chamo had taken action.
He had taken action once before on the elf land, but he didn’t appear much after that. Everyone gradually forgot about this hidden powerhouse.
He made another move today and instantly made the audience watching the live broadcast excited.
This trick was so cool! It wasn’t known what profession Chamo had. Could they get a profession change mission from him?
There was a lot of talk while the 11 person team once again gathered in the halo of light and flew over the sea.
Grumpy Little Rabbit also calmed down from his initial excitement. He held the leaf of the Tree of Life given to him by the elf queen and felt it carefully.
They didn’t go into the water, but since they were close to the sea and the water vapor was thick, he could vaguely feel abnormal fluctuations.
[Ding~ You seem to sense something through the leaf of the Tree of Life. Please continue to follow the direction you sensed!]
Then in the void in front of him, an arrow appeared and pointed him in a direction.
Wow, this was so much more convenient!
He quickly provided direction to the team.
After leaving the range of the flying interstellar beasts, the number of flying interstellar beasts on the sea gradually decreased. They just had to be careful and wouldn’t be in danger for the time being.
They flew for an unknown amount of time and everything was going smoothly.
However, at this moment, Grumpy Little Rabbit suddenly screamed.
“Ah, it is time for the gaming addiction prevention!”
Then he disappeared in front of everyone.
