Chapter 246 Where is the Captain?
Lin Qiye spoke weakly, but was ignored by everyone. Ling Yunxiao had already awakened Garuda King with the word "healing".
The group boarded Garuda King's back and headed towards the Bermuda Triangle.
Ling Yunxiao sat there bored and opened the Book of Life and Death.
"Saving Fengdu City consumes 3500 million points of Reincarnation Power."
Saving the impoverished people of the Fire Mystic Realm consumes 100 million points of Reincarnation Power.
Battle Consumption of Reincarnation Power: 60 points

Kill the Hanuman lineage, eradicate Cthulhu's corruption, and obtain 2000 million Reincarnation Power.
Kill the Mogara clan and gain 240 million points of Reincarnation Power.
Defeat Varuna, the water god of the Ganges, and gain 300 million points of Reincarnation Power.
Remaining Reincarnation Power: 170 million points of Reincarnation Power.
Ling Yunxiao blinked. In other words, all his busy work during this period had only resulted in barely enough to make ends meet, with his actual balance remaining almost unchanged.
"Hey... could you cut back a bit? Before, the deductions were accurate to the individual, then it was a few hundred or a few thousand, which was tolerable. But now you're deducting handling fees in the hundreds of thousands? Isn't that outrageous...?"
Ling Yunxiao silently complained in his heart. The Judge's Pen remained quiet, as if it couldn't hear anything at all. The Book of Life and Death was also motionless, as if it were just an ordinary book without any sentience.
As Garuda King flew steadily, Wang Ye took out some food from his bag. After the group received their food, they began to chat.
"Seven Nights, that 'Top Ten Unsolved Mysteries' you mentioned earlier, is it science fiction?"
"That's right! What our teacher said about the unsolved mysteries of the world is actually similar to folk legends. They all start with various rumors, add all sorts of conjecture and fabrication, and finally come up with some high-end place names so that people can see them at a glance, as if they have heard of them, but have never been there, and most likely would never have been there."
"Is that so? I thought since they'd all been published as books, they were probably true!"
"Heh... Aren't there plenty of novels being published these days? This is just science fiction disguised as popular science, which is a bit far-fetched. I've even seen people disguise a diary entry as a collection of poems, making it mandatory for people to buy it!"
Ling Yunxiao suddenly remembered something, smiled and took over the sentence. The others had all read it and asked him to explain in detail.
Ling Yunxiao tilted his head and thought for a while, then casually recited a few lines of that "master's" prose poems.
The group exchanged bewildered glances, and indeed, they were thinking, "That's it? I could write that too!"
"If this thing is printed, the publisher won't lose money..."
"bump……"
As the group was chatting, Garuda King was once again caught off guard and crashed hard into a transparent light barrier. Garuda King closed his eyes and fell directly into the sea.
The fiery wheels flew out instantly, transforming into a fire phoenix that circled in the air before catching everyone on its back.
"Captain, you..."
Ling Yunxiao had grabbed the King's arm the moment Garuda King fell, and now he suddenly felt a stinging pain in his fingers. He asked a question and turned to look at the King beside him.
Beside him, there was no sign of Wang Mian; instead, he was tightly gripping a piece of withered wood covered in sharp thorns.
Ling Yunxiao frowned, but did not let go of his hand.
He looked up at Nezha, about to say something, when a gust of wind blew by, and the huge fire phoenix began to sway precariously.
"Let's go down! There does seem to be something wrong with the void here."
As Wang Ye spoke, a dark chain appeared in his hand. The chain hung on his wrist and quickly wrapped around everyone's waists. Nezha then retracted his Wind Fire Wheels, and the group landed simultaneously, landing right on Garuda King's back.
Ling Yunxiao casually waved his hand, reviving Garuda King.
"Holy crap, where's the captain?!"
After calming down, the group looked at Ling Yunxiao at the same time. Wang Ye even shouted out loud. He had seen how scary Ling Yunxiao was when the captain was not around, and he didn't want to see him again.
Ling Yunxiao raised his arm, displaying the piece of dead wood covered in sharp thorns to everyone.
"This is most likely the cursed captain, but it could also be the mysterious figure who abducted the captain..."
