Chapter 13

Deep Sea Treasure Chest: Another God-like Choice?

"Let's set off then, to find the treasure chest in the deep sea!"

Ye Fan spoke calmly, and then the entire fishing boat began to turn and head rapidly toward the coordinates that Jia Na had just mentioned, at a speed of 90 knots, and the wind direction at sea was not headwind.

It won't take long at all to reach our destination!

......

The Fisherman sped along, unstoppable, and arrived at the destination without any hindrance. As soon as he arrived, Ye Fan saw some ghost sharks circling around an island reef in the distance.

Ghost sharks are extraordinary creatures that live in the Origin Sea. Each one is eight meters long, much longer than any great white shark in nature.

Furthermore, their faces are grotesque, and their flesh is shriveled, making them look just like zombies.

The moment Ye Fan saw them, a detailed information panel about the Ghost Sharks popped up in front of him.

Ghost Shark

[Level: Extraordinary Level 1]

[Skills: Bloodlust (strength increases after consuming enough blood), Painlessness (they feel no pain and are always in peak condition.)]

[Four-dimensional attributes: Strength 36, Agility 54, Spirit 24, Constitution 43]

......

After reviewing the information panel, Ye Fan felt much more at ease. These ghost sharks were far inferior to Jia Na in terms of both their four-dimensional attributes and skills. Although there were more ghost sharks, quantity could not replace quality.

Jana is perfectly capable of handling these ghost sharks.

"Jiana, it's up to you now."

Ye Fan called out to Jia Na, who then jumped into the ocean. In the blink of an eye, they arrived at the gathering place of the ghost sharks. As soon as the two sides met, the ghost sharks launched an attack, all rushing over at once, their signature dorsal fins breaking through the seawater.

But just as they were about to approach Giana, they were all trapped in a water prison formed by the seawater.

No matter how hard they tried, they couldn't break through, and the battle entered a state of suppression from the very beginning.

Seeing this, Ye Fan couldn't help but realize just how vast the gap was between the extraordinary levels. He was trapped in just one exchange... How could he possibly fight like this?

As expected, all the ghost sharks in the water were killed, while Jia Na herself was not harmed at all. Seeing this result, Ye Fan was slightly surprised. Goodness, it seems that he had underestimated his opponent.

The battle was easier than he had expected and didn't last long at all.

"Captain, this is the deep-sea treasure chest I found. I discovered it fifty meters underwater."

"How about that? I'm pretty good, aren't I?"

Not long after, the lively and agile Jia Na returned to the deck with the deep-sea treasure chest. The expression on her face seemed to be showing off her strength and wanting Ye Fan to praise her.

Seeing this, Ye Fan sighed and shook his head helplessly. He wasn't very good at praising people, but this time Jia Na really did a good job.

He wasn't worried at all from beginning to end.

"Well done, Jana."

"You are really amazing."

Ye Fan smiled as he accepted the deep-sea treasure chest, and a notification about the chest immediately popped up in front of his eyes.

[Deep Sea Treasure Chest]

[Upon opening: There is a chance to obtain deep-sea-grade equipment, supplies, or rare building blueprints.]

[Note: There is a 5% chance of obtaining a faction badge.]

.....

After reading the notification, a hint of joy flashed in Ye Fan's eyes. It was indeed a deep-sea level treasure chest. As long as he opened it, he could obtain deep-sea level supplies and equipment!

He was really looking forward to this. As for the Deep Sea level, it was a level specifically used in this world to classify the quality of weapons, equipment, and treasure chests.

The quality levels, from lowest to highest, are: Common, Relic, Deep Sea, Raging Wave, and Tsunami.

The deep-sea-level treasure chest is already of very good quality. You should know that most of the survivors who entered this world at the same time as you can't even collect the supply boxes drifting at sea... those things don't even have a grade.

Having obtained this deep-sea treasure chest, I've already surpassed the vast majority of people.

Hopefully, this treasure chest will contain some good stuff.

Upon opening the app with high hopes, a notification immediately appeared showing a large amount of supplies had been collected.

[Ding! You have opened a deep-sea treasure chest!]

[Obtained: Deep-sea class Murloc Horn, Deep-sea class Serrated Gun, Moonstone x1, Energy Core x20, Fish Oil Lamp Blueprint x1, Faction Badge: Papacy.]

[Ding! Congratulations on obtaining the rare item, Faction Badge: Papacy]

[Papal Emblem]

[Purpose: Once the four-dimensional attributes reach the standard for extraordinary individuals, possessing this badge will allow you to join the Preacher path and automatically join the Holy See's faction!]

[Note: Once you choose to join the Papacy's faction, you cannot change your faction.]

[Alternatively, you can choose to sacrifice this badge to gain a god-level choice opportunity.]

.....

Ye Fan glanced at the supplies he had just acquired and was quickly drawn to a silver badge that had been dropped among them. The item appeared to be made of mithril and had a benevolent image of the Virgin Mary engraved on its surface.

Moreover, it seems to have a magical power; looking at it for too long can even cause dizziness.

This made Ye Fan immediately abandon his preparation to continue examining the details. However, what interested him was... the last message box mentioned... that choosing to sacrifice this badge would grant him a god-level choice opportunity!

As for what benefits joining the Holy See would bring, and what kind of future prospects it would offer, Ye Fan didn't know, but he was clear about the rewards of being chosen by a god.

Rather than gambling on an unknown future, it's better to sacrifice this badge now... and get another god-like choice!

"Choose to sacrifice this badge."

Ye Fan spoke calmly, and then the mithril badge in his hand gradually dissipated, finally turning into wisps of white smoke and disappearing from his hand.

Then, another reward interface for the God-level Choice popped up in front of Ye Fan's eyes, and this time the reward really dazzled him.

[Ding! Successfully sacrificed your faction badge and received a God-tier choice reward]

[Option 1: Blessing of Immortality. The fisherman's boat receives the blessing of the gods, its hull becoming indestructible and impervious to the ravages of time, truly becoming eternal.]

[Option Two: A Weapon That Can Be Upgraded. The host receives a weapon or piece of equipment that can be upgraded indefinitely.]

[Option 3: 1 Level 3 Extraordinary Deep-Sea Race Recruitment Card. Using this card will allow you to recruit a powerful, extraordinary creature from the Deep-Sea race, who will be 100% loyal!]

......

Three golden reward options popped up in front of him, and Ye Fan was immediately overwhelmed by the choices. Good heavens... each of these three rewards was better than the last!

For a moment, he really couldn't make a decision!
