106: Chapter 106 The Frozen House

For a moment, he even suspected that his skill had malfunctioned.

But then he shook his head.

The Gorge skill had been with him for a very long time, and it had never had any issues.

So, the problem could only lie with Xin.

He looked up, his eyes gradually turning ferocious.

Just as he raised his hands high, preparing to release Gorge for the second time, a low voice rang out.

"Return!"

In an instant, Divine Ox, with his hands raised high, vanished from where he stood.

Along with him vanished Pudge, who was standing on the shoal, and Kadel, who had just flown within five hundred meters of the warship.

Thanks to Divine Ox's brief control, Kadel had been hooked within the recall range.

As for the few Crew Members on the ship, they had been recalled at the very first moment.

"Guardian Shield!"

"Advanced Shield!"

Watching the red shadow flying out, Chen Fan felt his scalp tingle.

He rolled to the side, tumbling and scrambling into the cabin.

Just as he rolled to the bottom of the stairs, all the hair on his body stood on end, as if a thousand needles were pricking his skin.

A sharp "hiss" sound also came from the air.

Having heard it countless times, Chen Fan understood that it was the sound of Shadowless Fist.

This move from Xin was blocked by the double shields and did not land on Chen Fan.

Just as he breathed a sigh of relief, a low Explosion sounded.

"Bang—"

Then, the world returned to peace.

Chen Fan held his breath and pricked up his ears to listen for any movement outside.

After a few minutes, there was still no sound.

Chen Fan suppressed his wildly beating heart and panted a few times.

Once his breathing calmed down, he opened the system interface.

The exterior of the warship was equipped with its own surveillance.

After turning on the surveillance, Chen Fan was stunned.

Outside, not to mention people, there wasn't even a ghost in sight.

The Five Women, who had been ordered not to leave the cabin, looked highly nervous, and group chat messages were constantly flashing.

After a moment of contemplation, Chen Fan told them to stay calm, then summoned a group of Sailors.

Another wave of the suicide squad disembarked and walked towards the frozen building.

On Chen Fan's side, he was reviewing the video recorded by the warship's surveillance.

It started from the moment Kadel fired his gun.

The bullet cut through the night sky, flying toward the shadow ahead.

Immediately, a fiery shadow flew out from the darkness and landed behind Kadel.

Like a homing missile, the bullet flew back from the shadows.

Just as it was about to hit Xin, his figure turned ethereal for a moment.

It was as if a stream of red energy had drifted away.

The bullet passed through Xin's figure and flew toward the warship.

The next moment, after the "hiss" sound, the ethereal figure materialized again.

The bullet heading toward the warship turned around and hit Xin.

Instantly, the bullet exploded.

Xin's fiery red figure turned into a burst of red energy and dissipated into the air.

"Dead?"

Chen Fan widened his eyes, whispering in disbelief.

He glanced at the system interface.

The two shields had lost 60% and 80% of their energy, respectively.

In other words, without the damage reduction from the Guardian Shield, Xin's Shadowless Fist could have directly shattered the destroyer's Advanced Shield!

Chen Fan swallowed his saliva and wiped the sweat from his forehead in lingering fear.

"Repair!"

[Consumed 400,000 gold coins. Repair complete.]

[Consumed 4,000 energy focusing crystals. Repair complete.]

Seeing the two shields return to normal, Chen Fan breathed a sigh of relief.

The Sailors who went out to scout had also reached the door of the frozen house without any obstruction.

There, it was completely empty.

After pondering for a moment, Chen Fan let the Crew Members out.

"Kadel, if he had been hit by that shot of yours, what would have happened?"

Kadel snorted coldly, "He would die."

"Really?" Chen Fan expressed doubt.

Kadel, as if insulted, jumped up and wanted to kick Chen Fan in the knee.

"Short Lord's charged assassination, never mind an energy form, even if the actual Ember Spirit came, he would die if he took a shot!!!"

In his rage, his flying kick was about to land on Chen Fan's knee.

However, Lairuilei snorted coldly, and her whip kick lashed out like lightning, kicking Kadel flying.

"Ouch, Short Lord is in pain!"

Kadel rubbed his butt, glaring at Lairuilei with fury.

Lairuilei was not to be outdone, staring back at him with cold eyes.

After staring at each other for a moment, Kadel snorted and looked away.

"Short Lord won't lower himself to the level of a woman."

"Pfft..."

Chris couldn't help it and laughed out loud.

Seeing Kadel's angry gaze, he straightened his expression.

"If that energy form was really hit, you wouldn't need to worry; he would definitely die."

Kadel nodded in satisfaction, snorted, and continued drinking.

Chen Fan nodded and opened the recording for everyone to watch.

After confirming, the Crew Members were all certain that Xin was dead.

Chen Fan finally breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at Divine Ox.

"Can your Gorge also be adjusted in thickness and length at will?"

Divine Ox scratched his forehead and smiled honestly, "Yes, it can be adjusted between 10 meters and 1000 meters."

"A very useful skill."

Chen Fan patted his shoulder and cast his gaze toward Kadel.

Such a powerful Xin, was he killed instantly by his shot?

The footage recorded by the surveillance was very clear; to dodge the bullet, Xin shifted his position twice in a row.

But the bullet seemed to have a radar; no matter how Xin dodged, he couldn't escape it.

Kadel was very satisfied with Chen Fan's gaze; he put his hands behind his back, snorted softly, raised his head, and jumped off the warship.

After receiving the news, The Five Women also cheered and got off the ship.

Immediately, they chirped and asked about what had just happened.

Chen Fan got a headache from the noise and just tossed the recording over, letting them watch it.

Soon, the group stopped at the door of the frozen house.

"Is this house what Xin relied on to continuously release skills?"

After observing for a long time, they couldn't figure anything out.

Chen Fan waved his hand, "Open the door!"

Kuka took out his long saber and stepped forward, accepting the order.

Last time he couldn't cut the unicorn savage, which made him lose a lot of face.

Encountering such a good opportunity this time, he was determined to show his skills no matter what.

Walking to the door, Kuka gripped his long saber tightly with both hands, aimed for a moment, and slashed down fiercely.

"Ding—"

The long saber was deflected, sparking a flame that was quickly extinguished by the ice and snow.

Looking at the lock again, apart from a shallow white mark, it was completely undamaged.

The air seemed to freeze, and strange looks fell upon Kuka.

"Ahem... I didn't use any strength just now, let's go again!"

He gritted his teeth, used all his strength, and slashed down again at the white mark he had just made.

A harsher clashing sound rang out.

However, other than creating a larger spark, there was no result.

Without Chen Fan needing to stop him, Kuka's hands trembled.

Carrying his long saber, he walked consciously to the corner and went to face the wall to reflect on his mistakes.

"Pfft..."

Lairuilei covered her mouth and giggled.

Kadel even mocked him loudly without any restraint.

Chen Fan shook his head helplessly, took out a long saber, and swung it gently.

Under the strike of the long saber, the hard lock was instantly cut in two.

The sound of metal hitting the ground made Kuka shudder.

Immediately, he turned his head and looked resentfully at the lock that had been cut into two pieces.

Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, he continued to lower his head and draw circles on the ground with his long saber.

A breeze blew, and the tightly closed door slowly opened.

Lairuilei silently shifted a step sideways, blocking in front of Chen Fan.

Chen Fan shook his head and reached out, wanting to pull her aside.

Just at this moment, a bone-chilling cold emanated from inside the room.

Lairuilei's hair stood on end, and the clear wind bow instantly condensed.

Just as she was preparing to shoot an energy arrow, a soft, sweet voice came from inside the room.

"This scent... is it you? Sister Lairuilei!"
