The Second-Level Black Magician Saine still kept in mind, the Giant Turtle Bixi, seemed to have forgotten about. →

If it weren't for Saine's warning from the side, the Giant Turtle would probably have just casually discarded the other's remains on the seabed.

This is the fortune of a Second-Level Black Magician...

The Giant Turtle didn't want it, but Saine did!

Furthermore, what Saine valued was not the Magic Coin and material wealth possessed by Second-Level Black Magician, but rather the wealth of knowledge this Mage possessed.

Whether it's methods of soul science, knowledge related to alchemy, or any Magic Notebook left behind by this Mage, Saine is interested in them all!

When the Giant Turtle pulled the Second-Level Black Magician from the seabed, the Black Magician's body had already returned to human form, but his skin was cracked and chapped, making him look extremely horrifying.

This was crushed by sheer force; even on the surface of the opponent's body, Saine observed that the Dark Element particles, which were not low in concentration, were still in a disordered state.

This level -Second-Level Black Magician died a truly pathetic death!

Saine could tell that when the Second-Level Black Magician broke out of the Green Cage, he was in a state of explosive power, and his strength was almost double that of before.

Furthermore, as a Black Magician who has dominated the Black Domain Zongheng a long time, the other party must possess other methods.

But this powerful Level-2 Creature, which was in a state of explosive power and likely had other unused trump cards, was simply killed by the Giant Turtle Bixi with a casual slap.

The Bixi's powerful properties amazed Saine, and its approachable attitude also won him favor.

Bixi didn't even glance at the Spoils of War contributed by the Second-Level Black Magician, completely leaving them to Saine's disposal.

The heavy Dragon Breath emanating from the creature confirmed to Saine that this turtle with its strange horns must be a dragon-type creature.

But it seems this giant tortoise doesn't value wealth much. After a brief encounter, Saine learned a rather speechless result—this giant tortoise seems to prefer sleeping to wealth.

However, having slept for over a thousand years, this giant tortoise is still in pretty good spirits.

The enormous body swam continuously in the surrounding sea, and with Saine on its back, he had an extra means of transportation for free.

The Second-Level Black Magician left behind a considerable legacy. Although his body was cracked and bleeding, his magical artifacts and other items did not seem to have suffered any significant damage.

The Giant Turtle Bixi's attacks were almost entirely focused on his flesh and blood. As for why it didn't destroy the magical items as well, that was beyond Saine's knowledge.

Could it be that this seemingly simple and strong big guy is actually incredibly skilled in the field of power control?

Although the Giant Turtle Bixi swam around on the sea, Saine felt very safe on its back.

Furthermore, Bixi seems to enjoy sunbathing; it did not submerge itself in the ocean, thus preventing Saine from getting wet.

At this moment Owl Little Qi was flying near the Bixi's huge head. Perhaps because they were both "monsters", Little Seven also showed great affection for the Giant Turtle.

Of course, the main reason why Little Seven was so close to Bixi was that the Giant Turtle had just shot out a jet of water from its mouth, which healed Little Seven's torn wings in the blink of an eye.

This treatment method exceeded Saine's previous understanding of healing magic.

Saine judged that this was a water-based healing method, but it felt somewhat different.

Bixi helped Little Seven voluntarily; Saine didn't ask for anything in return.

However, seeing that Little Seven and the Giant Turtle got along well, Saine felt much more at ease.

Continuing to peruse the legacy of the Second-Level Black Magician, the first thing Saine picked up was a string of deep blue Crystal Necklace.

The Space Element emanating from the Crystal Necklace stirred Saine's interest, and he immediately tried to activate the Space Necklace with his Mental Strength.

This Crystal Necklace did not appear to have been sealed by the Black Magician; Saine's Mental Strength easily activated the magic circle inside.

After a flash of blue light, a huge fish tank appeared, and the first thing that caught Saine's eye was a pink fish tail.

"Splash!" Water splashed, clearly indicating that this Mermaid was not a weakling who could be easily slaughtered.

Although her Life Level has not yet reached level one, with her innate supernatural powers and outstanding water control abilities, she can easily fight against level one creatures in the short term.

The spray of water had no real impact on Saine.

Because at the very moment the Mermaid leaped up, Yuli, standing beside Saine, used her steel body to block the splashing water.

The water splashed onto Yuli's Flame Mark Constructed Magic Puppet, producing a piercing metallic clang.

Clearly, these water droplets were quite powerful, even strong enough to injure someone.

With the Giant Turtle Bixi beneath his feet, Saine certainly didn't want to have any conflict with this Mermaid.

Furthermore, considering that they were both "marine creatures," Bixi might feel some sympathy for her, so Saine did not treat her as a slave creature.

But not treating her as a slave doesn't mean that Saine should indulge her.

The powerful Mental Strength of Level-1 Magician, amplified by the Azure Fire Heart Magic Staff, swept towards the Mermaid in the fish tank before him.

After the Mermaid became completely docile, Saine said in a deep voice, "The Second-Level Black Magician imprisoned you is dead. You are now free."

Perhaps it was the word "freedom" that moved the mermaid, or perhaps it was the news of the death of the second-level dark magician Van Basten that caused the pink-tailed mermaid to freeze in place for a moment.

The Bixi, which was frolicking with its head submerged in the seawater, heard the slight noise on its back. It raised its head and looked back.

The enormous turtle head and those two sinewy dragon horns made the Pink-Tailed Mermaid's eyes widen in surprise.

As royalty in the ocean, the Mermaid naturally recognized what this Giant Turtle was.

She said in a slightly trembling voice, "Lord Sea God?"

This Mermaid has a beautiful voice; at least, Saine thinks she would be very moving if she sang.

I've heard that among the sea creatures, there's a mid-level race called the Sea Siren, who have been at odds with the Naga Clan for years.

The Sea Siren's song is widely known throughout the Wizard World, and it is even said to be the progenitor of Sound Wave Magic explored by Mage.

I wonder how the voice of the legendary Sea Siren compares to that of this Mermaid.

However, Saine overestimated this Mermaid. In fact, she mistook her for someone else, or rather, she mistook her for a turtle.

"No, the ' Sea God ' you're referring to could be my father, or it could be my eldest or Second Brother, but it definitely isn't me."

"I have only recently come from the Western Islands and am still a young turtle that has hatched less than five thousand years ago."

"And I haven't had much contact with you sea creatures before," the Giant Turtle Bixi, answered honestly.
