Chapter 104: Water Demon Wharf!
The Lord of the City He Denlong continued, "News from below says that the wharf in the west of the city has been restless recently, and it seems that the Demon Clan is causing trouble. There might be information about a Demon Clan stronghold there."
This is a clue.
Li Xiang immediately nodded, "City Lord, I will find and destroy the Demon Clan stronghold as soon as possible, and do my utmost to contribute to the peace of Wu Shuang City!"
He Denlong looked at Li Xiang with satisfaction, "Very good! I was right about You!"
【Ding! 「Wu Shuang City City Lord - He Denlong」 Favorability +10, current value: 20】
Seeing the prompt for increased favorability, Li Xiang smiled, walked out of the City Lord's Mansion, and headed straight for the wharf in the west of the city.
Half an hour later, Li Xiang arrived at the wharf.
「Ding! You have entered 'Water Demon Wharf'」
Seeing the words Water Demon Wharf, Li Xiang looked around, observing the wharf.
The wharf is not very large, just a small port with several ships docked, and NPCs moving back and forth on the ships and on land, transporting goods.
Li Xiang approached the wharf and saw an NPC who looked like a Captain standing on the deck of one of the cargo ships, smoking with a worried expression.
Li Xiang immediately walked over, "Hello, are You encountering some difficulty?"
The NPC Captain glanced at Li Xiang but did not respond.
Li Xiang immediately put on his Level 2 Imperial Guard Medal.
Instantly, the attitude of the NPC Captain changed by one hundred and eighty degrees.
"So it's the Royal Guard."
"Alas... You don't know, the Water Demons here have been very rampant recently. One of our cargo ships has already been destroyed. We don't have many ships in total, and the destruction of this one ship affects several families..."
Li Xiang waited for a moment and found that no quest was triggered.
His eyes flickered slightly, and Li Xiang immediately said, "Are the Water Demons here often like this?"
The NPC Captain shook his head, "It's not like this..."
"Since last year, the Water Demons here have started to riot. Before that, the Water Demons were always relatively docile, and we sailors would offer a large amount of livestock and poultry into the water every year to ensure our safe passage."
Since last year...
Li Xiang knew that this was the clue for his quest.
Next, Li Xiang continued to inquire, and obtained a definite piece of information from the mouth of the NPC Captain.
The river where the wharf is located is very long, and there is an island in the center. Before the Water Demon riot, the island did not appear.
In other words, the Water Demons only started to riot after that island appeared.
And that island is also quite strange. No matter which direction You enter from, You will get lost, and after walking for a long time, You will find that You are still outside the island and have not entered it.
"Captain, can You take me to that island?"
"Of course, Royal Guard. If You solve the problem of the Water Demon riot, all the boat people of Wu Shuang City will thank You."
After that, the NPC Captain personally drove the boat, taking Li Xiang towards the center of the river.
As the ship moved, Li Xiang saw the Monsters here.
A type of Monster that looks somewhat like a person, but has fins on both sides of its cheeks and is covered in scales.

【Comment: Steel Fork Water Demon, a type of Water Demon with very strong attack power. When angry, the gills on both sides will bulge. Do not get close at this time...】
Seeing the attributes of the Steel Fork Water Demon, Li Xiang thought of the Monster strength in the Hell difficulty dungeon again.
"As expected of Hell difficulty..."
As Li Xiang finished speaking, the NPC Captain looked at the increasing number of Steel Fork Water Demons on both sides in horror, and immediately brought a barrel of meat and poured it into the water.
The Steel Fork Water Demons immediately shared the meat, but after sharing, they all stared at Li Xiang and the NPC Captain on the deck with blood-red eyes.
At the same time, Li Xiang saw that their gills on both sides of their faces were all bulging...
This meant that they were angry...
The NPC Captain also knew the habits of the Steel Fork Water Demons. Seeing this scene, he slumped onto the deck, "It's over... It's over... They are angry, this ship will also be destroyed..."
As his words fell, these Steel Fork Water Demons immediately began to attack the cargo ship.
-1000
-1000
-1000
...
Each attack from the Steel Fork Water Demon forcibly took away 1000 HP from the cargo ship.
A long HP bar appeared on the cargo ship.
91000/100000
With only 100,000 HP, the cargo ship could not withstand the attacks of these Steel Fork Water Demons at all.
Li Xiang knew that he had to do something, otherwise if the ship was destroyed, he would drown before he could swim to the shore.
Raised the storm divine sword.
Sword Qi Slash!!!
A sword qi appeared directly, instantly hitting a Steel Fork Water Demon.
-42653
Immediately took away nearly half of this Water Demon's HP.
Demon Flame Slash!
The demon flame was directly swung out, hitting!
-71112
Kill!!!
「Ding! Over-leveled kill of Elite Monster 'Steel Fork Water Demon', gained experience x361196」
Seeing the high experience value of 360,000, Li Xiang's eyes lit up!
"Such high experience points!"
However, killing a Steel Fork Water Demon requires two ranged skills.
Li Xiang didn't have many ranged skills on him.
He glanced around, and there were more than ten Steel Fork Water Demons surrounding the cargo ship.
Li Xiang didn't dare to jump into the water either.
Let's fight first!
Falling Boulder!!!
Boom!!!
A huge rock condensed from the air, falling directly and hitting a Steel Fork Water Demon.
-112266!
Critical hit! Instantly killed!
「Ding! Over-leveled kill of Elite Monster 'Steel Fork Water Demon', gained experience x361196」
After two Steel Fork Water Demons were killed by Li Xiang, the remaining more than ten Steel Fork Water Demons all gathered towards the area where Li Xiang was.
Looking at them, they wanted to kill Li Xiang to vent their anger.
Seeing them gather, Li Xiang became excited.
"This is experience points delivered right to my doorstep!!"
Group Fire!!!
Flames rose directly on the water surface.
More than ten Steel Fork Water Demons were all within the range of the flames.
-44324
-43981
-44173
...
Large amounts of damage values appeared.
Group Fire lasts for 12 seconds, with over 40,000 damage per second. After three seconds, all the Steel Fork Water Demons were dead...
「Ding! Over-leveled kill of Elite Monster 'Steel Fork Water Demon', gained experience x361196」
「Ding! Over-leveled kill of Elite Monster 'Steel Fork Water Demon', gained experience x361196」
「Ding! Over-leveled kill of Elite Monster 'Steel Fork Water Demon', gained experience x361196」
...
Nearly five million experience points were added to the account.
As for the items dropped by the Steel Fork Water Demons, they all sank into the river.
They can only benefit the god of the river...
The NPC Captain saw that the danger was resolved and stood on the deck, constantly praying to the god, which made Li Xiang speechless.
Praying to the god is not as good as saying a few good words to me, and I can keep You safe.
The rest was relatively smooth. With Li Xiang as a super combat force, all the blocking Water Demons encountered were eliminated, becoming nourishment on Li Xiang's leveling path.
Half an hour later, the shape of an island appeared in Li Xiang's sight.
