Sheyan released a long sigh to Brother Paul\'s incomparably excited queries. After a long while of silence, he replied with a troubled tone.
"Where I\'m at is a completely different dimension from the caribbean sea. For you to reach me, you must directly participate in a summoning rite. Yet if Davy Jones knows of this, he will abhor our deeds undoubtedly."
The ecstatic Paul answered hurriedly.
"He is presently sailing towards the west, don\'t worry about him knowing I was summoned here."
Sheyan continued resistantly.
"My friend, your indomitable might incites all of our envy. However, that exact might will become the biggest hurdle during the summoning process. To summon you absolutely isn\'t a simple matter!"
If it was another creature, it would certainly be at a loss to Sheyan\'s explanation. Instead, Kraken Paul was a heaven-defying monster. He was first an experiment of dark magic from Davy Jones and possessed exceptional abilities. Next, through a fortuitous encounter, the curse brought about by the contestants then had ultimately transformed him into a wise and farsighted colossus.
That was also because Paul suffered only half the effects of the curse due to Sheyan\'s disruption then. Hence, he was actually a semi-ghost-semi-physical creature; possessing certain characteristics of ghostly monstrosity. Still he retained a personal thirst for indulgence of his feelings. Most crucially, Kraken Paul was initially a summoned creature of Davy Jones and naturally possessed extensive experience and knowledge with regards to summons.
"I have a way, Seaman Yan!" "The sperm-driven Paul roared out anxiously.
"Just that magic transportation array you employed just now would be sufficient. The greatest mistake you committed, is discussing the mighty Paul in the same frequency as other pathetic creatures."
"……" Sheyan speechlessly replied. "Alright, Elder Desirese Roots, any questions?"
Desirese Roots bowed humbly and said.
"Respected Sir Protector, as long as it is maintaining the intensity of the transportation array, I will be fine even with two times the time with the assistance of those high-level magic artifacts."
The same event occurred as previously. Except, for a normal summoning, when a summoning bridge is established between two dimensions, even the lowest tier of summoned creatures would be arrogantly pampered. They would calmly allow the summoner to drag them to the summoner\'s dimension, thereby displaying their exceptional status. Instead, the tier-9 legendary Brother Paul was aloof and indifferent. Facing the terribly slow summoning speed, his tentacles flew into a dance without hesitation as he frantically climbed towards Sheyan\'s dimension……
"Sir Protector, is this your unrivalled ally?"
When the summoning rite concluded, the elves starred with utter astoundment…their gazes congregated towards Sheyan\'s left palm.
On his palm, was a miniature octopus with tentacles coiled around Sheyan\'s fingers, who swung around from time to time…
Following that, this miniature octopus appeared to be dissatisfied with the elves\' expressions, as it widened its eyes menacingly before blatantly shooting out two thin water pillars.
The honest and thick-headed Segimli couldn\'t resist the urge to tease.
"My friend, are you sure you wish to challenge that monster of legends with this? The nightmare of the mines of Moria, predator of all adventurers, the raptor of the Misty Mountains, Oceanfreak Moria? If you really mean it, then this is such a cruel tragedy. Where is your conscience? Hais…"
The miniature Paul was finally enraged. He jetted out a shot of black ink into the face of Segimli.
Sheyan smiled wryly and replied.
"Segimli, you will regret infuriating my ally Paul. Once he recovers his strength, you best stay as far away as you can."
As it turns out, Paul facilitate the ease of summoning by spontaneously sealing his strength and shrinking his physique, which was an innate ability gifted by Davy Jones. It was primarily to store the kraken inside a fishbowl and nurture it. Yet Paul unexpectedly utilized this ability to facilitate his summoning, but at the cost of temporarily losing its strength.
Sheyan lifted his hand as he observed the mobile and miniature Paul crawling around his fingers. He suddenly thought of wasabi, soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, and the incredibly chewy taste in one\'s mouth……
Sheyan hastily discarded that thought and coughed, dispelling away such dangerous evil from his mind.
By now, Sheyan\'s forces had expanded powerfully. Apart from the faithful faction of Melody\'s elves, he had thirty elite dwarven warriors protecting him. This force was practically as reliable as a fortified wall.
Sheyan distinctly remembered a saying that was engraved at the bottom of a sculpture in Rivendell.
An army of dwarf resembles a profoundly indomitable chain vest. Each warrior an unbreakable chain. Sharing duty, honor and loyalty that interlocked each other like a chain vest; once locked together, nothing can penetrate the vest.
Thus, after examining the time, Sheyan blatantly traversed the ruins of the orc metropolis, venturing deeper for that icy valley before arriving before the poisonous pine forest.
The elves were worthy of being the blessed children of nature. Upon arriving here, they sensed that something was amiss and glanced around vigilantly. After a quick inspection, one warned.
"Sir Protector. There exists an unknown treachery here. We mustn\'t stay here for long."
Sheyan glanced at Reef and smiled faintly.
"No worries. The sun has set, we will be safe at least before it rises tomorrow."
The group that travelled through the pine forest and arrived by the river edge. By now, Brother Paul\'s cooldown duration had concluded and had long regained his strength.
Sheyan then earnestly said.
"Go my friend. I can guarantee that beautiful valiant madam can be reached via this river. Right, I should mention this. This river is linked to other underground rivers and you should probe around."
The miniature Paul then hopped off Sheyan\'s palm, before striding across the sand like an eight-legged ballerina. Paul then exclaimed emotionally.
"Ah! How intoxicating, I can already smell her alluring fragrance!"
Following that, he gradually crawled into the river.
Segimli grumbled to Sheyan.
"This is murder my friend. I sincerely feel tht Mister Paul should be spending his childhood in a pond, not taking an immense risk by exploring a remote river and being all boastful about this."
Just before Segimli could add on, a frighteningly gigantuous tentacle pierced out from the dark river without any warning. The tentacle was at least 7-8 meters long and could be seen to hold incredibly dreadful might. Just from gazing at its squirming sucklers, one\'s soul would shiver from panic!!
The tentacle proceeded to meander past several individuals like a winding serpent, and pursued Segimli with lightning pace. The poor Segimli, though alive for a century, was still considered a youth. He screamed sorrowfully with the words \'Oh my Mahal\' before being forcefully dragged into the river!
Only when Segimli had been dragged into the river, did the elves and dwarves regain their senses. The thirty elite dwarves yelled frantically yet none of them dared to enter the water. To everyone\'s knowledge, the dwarves prided themselves as creations of impregnable rocks……hence, they would most likely drown in the water.
Yet soon after, the young dwarf emerged in everyone\'s sight again, yet not before he was hurled flying by the tentacle and landed.
The miserable Segimli coughed violently and lamented.
"Ahhhhh I rescind my earlier words, no ahhhhh!"
This soaking and tossing affair lasted for five times before Kraken Paul finished venting his anger, leaving the half-dead Segimli lying on the sand like a spineless scallion. Paul then finished with a wave slap of water, causing all elves and dwarves to appear like drowned rats.
Only after that, did Paul proceeded to search for the female octopus, Oceanfreak Moria.
The dry Sheyan and Reef released a dry cough and announced.
"It seems we forgot to mention……Mister Paul is one who loves keeping grudges, oh, wrong, a gentleman who separates gratitude and grievances very clearly!"
The river side was now a plain of silence, looking as though nothing abnormal was happening. The group constructed three large bonfires as they patiently awaited.
After half an hour, everyone felt a sudden tremor beneath their feet. This tremor felt similar to an earthquake.
Closely after, the river water started undulating intensely with massive tides. The waters churned turbulently and extinguished their bonfires. One could imagine how fierce the ongoing battle between two hegemons was!
At this moment, Elder Desirese Roots whispered to Sheyan.
"Respected Protector, I am not doubting your plans but…I feel that our main objective, should be placed on Lordess twilight elf\'s predicament. I acknowledge that Oceanfreak Moria of Misty Mountains is unparalleled in strength, but I can\'t see how slaying or convincing it can be of help to Lordless twilight elf."
