306: Chapter 306 Recovering the Demon Dragon Crystal Core

Chen Fan took a deep breath, running through the plan in his mind once more.

After finding no omissions, he gave a low shout.

"Begin!"

"Thin Burial."

"Spirit Realm Walking."

With a low shout, Chen Fan's figure gradually faded away.

A second later, he appeared beneath the crystal core.

Raising his right hand high, he reached out to touch the crystal core.

The moment he made contact, Chen Fan deactivated Spirit Realm Walking.

Terrifying water pressure arrived in an instant.

If it weren't for the protection of Thin Burial, he would have been crushed to death in that split second.

"heart of the demon dragon."

Chen Fan endured the agonizing pain and roared.

"Immediately!"

After a low response, a red light shot from Chen Fan's right hand into the crystal core.

The entire crystal core trembled for a moment, then vanished from the spot.

"Teleport."

"Go!"

As soon as he entered the annihilation ship, Chen Fan urged Chris on.

"Yes, Master."

Chris exerted all his effort, pushing the annihilation ship's speed to its limit. Combined with Chen Fan's short-range teleports, they sped away.

Screeech—

A piercing explosion rang out.

The originally calm base of the tentacles began to tremble violently.

The entire sea region began to howl along with it.

"Speed up! It's going into a frenzy!"

Chen Fan's voice was solemn. He took a deep breath and continuously used Blink.

As the annihilation ship gradually rose, the distance of his Blinks also began to increase.

"Don't panic. Without the crystal core, it's not worth mentioning."

The heart of the demon dragon's tone grew increasingly elated as it felt its long-lost energy constantly returning.

The frequency of its heartbeat also became faster and faster.

Hearing this, Chen Fan nodded slightly, his gaze sweeping toward the Crew Member space.

At this moment, the heart of the demon dragon was no longer pure red. Its outer wall was encased in a layer of pale blue crystal.

"With the crystal, can you generate energy on your own now?"

Chen Fan asked with a smile.

The heart of the demon dragon immediately responded: "Mm. The energy I recovered earlier is useless to me now, I'll give you a portion."

[Ding!]

[Obtained magic dragon crystal core energy: 1 million.]

Holy crap?

Chen Fan rubbed his eyes, confirming he hadn't misread it.

"One million? That much!"

"Is it a lot? Heh."

The heart of the demon dragon was clearly very excited, its tone much more lively.

"Once I completely fuse with the magic dragon crystal core, I can produce this much every day."

*Hiss...*

Chen Fan sucked in a breath of cold air.

One million a day?

Wouldn't that mean all his Crew Members could reach SSS-rank within two days?

Thinking of this, Chen Fan's eyes flashed brilliantly.

Perhaps proving the heart of the demon dragon's words true...

After losing the crystal, the giant tentacle with a diameter of 150,000 meters began to shrink rapidly.

The Tentacle Monster, which had already developed some intelligence, felt its power constantly vanishing. It understood that someone had stolen its crystal core.

Thus, it abandoned its entanglement with Meat Mountain. Its still-massive tentacles smashed down repeatedly, turning the surrounding sea upside down.

Meat Mountain, whose flesh had been torn open, watched in confusion.

With its level of intelligence, it couldn't see why this tentacle had gone mad. But the other party's shrinking size truly made it breathe a sigh of relief.

Splash, splash—

Every time the massive tentacle smashed into the sea, it split the water in two.

It attempted to use this method to drag out the little thief who stole its crystal core.

But precisely because the tentacle was too massive, its perception of the tiny annihilation ship was weak.

Even though it struck the annihilation ship several times, it failed to pinpoint its location.

As for the Meat Mountain Great Demon King, it cleverly dodged away, watching the tentacle's madness from a distance.

"Luckily we entered the fortress's protection range, otherwise we'd really be in trouble."

Chen Fan patted his chest.

Those few times they were hit by the tentacle earlier, even with the fortress's damage transfer, they were nearly smashed to pieces.

After all, an annihilation ship with all its Talent points in attack had no energy shield.

However, with endless resources as a backup, as long as it wasn't killed in one hit, it could be instantly repaired.

Once they entered the shallow sea area, Chen Fan's teleportation returned to a distance of several thousand meters per jump.

After a series of teleports, the annihilation ship returned to the side of the aircraft carrier.

Chen Fan let out a long breath, looking up at the still-raging tentacle.

"After losing its crystal core, how many meters will it shrink to?"

"I'm not sure, but it will be at least several tens of thousands of meters."

"Mm, how do we kill it?" Chen Fan nodded.

The heart of the demon dragon pondered for a moment and said uncertainly: "Its outer wall is incredibly hard. To kill it, we have to work from the inside."

"Is that so?"

Chen Fan nodded and looked at the nuclear armored vehicle in its warship form nearby.

"Is it deployed? How many nuclear missiles are there?"

Ruituocuipu replied: "One each from ten thousand to fifty thousand, and three of one hundred thousand. There are no million-yield ones."

Chen Fan nodded.

Three 100,000-ton yield nuclear missiles should be enough to deal with it, right?

Chen Fan was somewhat uncertain, but currently, his highest combat power was the nuclear missiles.

"Fall back, the further the better."

"Yes, Master."

Several captains responded simultaneously, and the fleet began to retreat.

Chen Fan didn't stop until they were far outside the tentacle's attack range.

He didn't know the power of a 100,000-ton yield nuclear missile.

But judging from the previous 1,000-ton yield's power, retreating further certainly wouldn't hurt.

The tentacle continued to shrink.

After more than half an hour, its diameter had shrunk to less than five thousand meters.

Although it was still a colossus that reached from the heavens to the earth...

Compared to before, it had become a 'mini' version.

"It's about time."

The heart of the demon dragon reminded him.

Chen Fan nodded slightly and gave Ruituocuipu a look.

Ruituocuipu narrowed his eyes and nodded forcefully.

"Fire!"

After a few minutes of preparation...

Three 100,000-ton yield nuclear missiles took off one after another.

The roar even triggered waves of tsunamis that swept across the sea region.

The tentacle in the distance instantly understood that the little thief who stole its crystal core was over here.

It let out another shrill shriek and moved toward Chen Fan's location.

"Heh, too late."

Chen Fan shook his head with a smile.

Given the flight speed of nuclear missiles, at this distance, they could be said to arrive instantaneously.

"It's over, big whip."

"Void Tear!"

The first nuclear missile smashed into the tentacle.

But unexpectedly, it made no sound upon impact. Instead, it passed through the outer skin and reached the interior.

A few seconds later.

Boom—

A muffled, massive explosion echoed from inside the tentacle.

The tentacle let out a wail, twitching frantically in agony.

But it wasn't over yet. Soon, the second nuclear missile arrived.

"Void Tear!"

Chen Fan said coldly.

Boom—

The second explosion blew directly through the tentacle's interior.

Countless tiny cracks appeared on the tentacle's outer wall.

"Void Tear!"

The third nuclear missile penetrated the tentacle and reached the inside.

An even louder explosion followed.

The Tentacle Monster was blown into countless fragments.

The entire sky was shrouded in gray mist.

Within the gray mist...

A golden light flickered indistinctly.

"Sea Gods Power?"

The heart of the demon dragon cried out in surprise, "Snatch it!"

Chen Fan was stunned for a moment, just as he was about to give the order.

At his chest, red and blue energy quickly surged out.

The Death God turned into a streak of light, rushing toward that golden light like crazy.

"Whoa!"
