Bai Ming said, "You're looking at Drake's wine glass because it's the Holy Grail, aren't you?"
"Huh? The Holy Grail?"
"Ah, while this pure gold wine glass has terrible taste, the wine in it is inexhaustible. If you put it on the table, fish, meat, and fruit will appear non-stop... In short, I found it by chance."
Drake rambled on. It seemed she was already a bit disoriented from drinking from day to dusk, "There's no treasure more pleasing than this gem!"
"You didn't find this by chance at all, did you?"
One of the pirates attending the banquet shouted, "Respected guest! This cup was obtained by Big Sister through a grand legendary adventure at sea!"
Then, the pirate recounted how Drake single-handedly killed Poseidon, one of the Olympian Gods, in the Atlantis that appeared during seven eternal nights without dawn and a destructive great whirlpool. Afterward, she sank the entire Atlantis back to the seabed.
"Ah..." Mash looked at Bai Ming. Bai Ming ignored the gaze of the little eggplant and said, "You're a god-slayer too! You killed a genuine sea god from Greek mythology, hahaha, let's have a drink!"
"Alright! Refreshing! I'm liking you more and more, man!"
Drake and Bai Ming clinked their glasses again. Mash wanted to retort but didn't know where to start. The pirate beside them, however, played the role of the tsukkomi: "Big Sister will definitely be single forever! Big Sister is actually a man!"
"Hiyah~" Drake cheered, "This is so fun~ But soon, Bombei, I'll stuff you into a barrel and play a diving game!"
"Don't say something so terrifying with a smile!" Mash retorted, but she quickly remembered what Bai Ming had said during the day about either drowning someone or stripping them and feeding their pants to the fish.
"Seriously... Senior, you must have been a pirate before, right? And why aren't you surprised at all that humans can kill gods!"
"Is it that surprising? With thoroughly honed martial arts, even gods will die under my Thunderbolt Severance!"
"What nonexistent thing is that now!"
Midway through their drinking, the Holy Grail burrowed into Drake's body again. Drake said with a displeased look, "While this thing provides endless food and drink, and allows me to inflict substantial damage on those superhumans, the mere fact that it enters and exits my body makes me feel uncomfortable."
"Because you're the Star Pioneer chosen by the Holy Grail! Hey, Drake, that's my wine glass. Do you want to fight me?"
After Bai Ming discovered Drake had snatched his wine glass, the pirates on the other side also started arguing, "Hey, damn it, what are you doing!"
Bai Ming walked over with a grim expression and knocked out two pirates with a couple of punches, "What the hell are you shouting about! If you want to challenge me, come at me all at once, you bunch of pigs!"
Seeing Bai Ming causing a ruckus fueled by alcohol, Drake herself became excited, "Oh! Let's fight!"
The scene then descended into chaos. Mash, holding her shield, stared at the chaotic scene, her mind ceasing to function.
Chapter 62: Erik Bloodaxe remains silent, only letting out a continuous GAAAAAAA!
At night, Mash peacefully let Bai Ming rest his head on her lap, while Drake lay panting on the ground on the other side.
"My, this man is truly strong! He dodged all my attacks and came at me with inhuman movements. If I hadn't run fast enough, and if he hadn't been holding back, I would have been killed by him. Speaking of which, you want this cup, right?"
Just as Mash was about to agree, Bai Ming opened his eyes and poked the large, purple-covered lamp that obscured his vision with his finger.
Mash's body immediately tensed, and she exclaimed, "Senior, what are you doing!"
Bai Ming said, "I don't want yours. That cup belongs to you. We want a different cup."
"Huh? Is that so?"
Mash is Mash. A serious matter immediately shifted the girl's attention from groping to the Holy Grail.
"Trust me."
Bai Ming got up, "Thanks for the lap pillow, Mash. According to the captain's plan, we should set sail first thing tomorrow morning, right?"
"That's right! Considering the situation, let's drink a little less tonight!" Drake's seriousness lasted only a few seconds before she started drinking with Bai Ming again. However, Mash's attitude this time was surprisingly firm, "Senior, you can't drink anymore! Although I agree with the relaxation and enjoyment you mentioned, you're just too relaxed right now!"
"I can't help it, fine, I won't drink anymore."
As Bai Ming spoke, he lay down on Mash's lap and released Olga Marie, "See you tomorrow, everyone. Olga Marie, who doesn't need to sleep, come out and keep watch."
Olga Marie: "?"
"Director... do you want some food? Senior has been in this state of self-indulgence since arriving at sea..."
"Sigh." Olga Marie sighed, thinking her existence was dragging Bai Ming's mental state down. She said, "No, I'm currently sustained entirely by Bai Ming's mental energy. If he doesn't relax excessively like this, his condition will be very bad."
In reality, Bai Ming could casually refine the mental energy of a Japanese deity to feed Olga Marie for centuries, so Bai Ming was merely making an excuse to enjoy Mash's lap pillow.
"Suddenly there's an extra person! Judging by the accent, she's from London."
"Mm... I am indeed from London. You don't need to investigate my situation too thoroughly. After all, I am a deceased person, only temporarily filling in."
Olga Marie had no intention of continuing the conversation. She quietly took the fruit handed to her by Mash and fell silent.
◇ The Next Day
When Bai Ming woke up, the Golden Hind had already set sail.
"Senior, look, the sea! And seagulls! And a strange pirate ship..."
Mash, sailing at sea for the first time, was filled with excitement but soon realized something was wrong. Where did this strange pirate ship come from?
Bai Ming remained silent, merely smiling at Mash. Mash closed her eyes, her face filled with shyness, and said with a hint of annoyance, "Senior!"
"I understand, but there's no possibility of these copy-paste pirates dropping any magecraft materials, so kill them all. Also, head northeast by east. There's an island over there with someone I want to beat up."
"Huh?"
After Mash dealt with a wave of pirates generated entirely from magic, the Golden Hind sailed towards the island Bai Ming mentioned.
"No need for exploration, kill anyone we see. Let's go."
Bai Ming leaped directly from the ship's railing. Drake looked surprised. "That's a human, right?"
"I... suppose so?"
Mash wasn't sure if her senior still fell within the human category. Compared to humans, Mash felt her senior was more like a handsome gorilla.
There was no need to explore this island.
After all, Mash and Drake had been attacked as soon as they landed. Drake had immediately fired several shots, completely shattering Mash's idea of proceeding cautiously.
So, Mash and Drake began to charge recklessly across the island, searching for Bai Ming's location.
Meanwhile, Bai Ming had already confronted Erik Bloodaxe head-on.
The bare-chested, powerfully built Viking man's eyes flashed red. In his hand, he wielded a pitch-black great axe with ominous red markings. Upon seeing Bai Ming, he roared:
"Gaaaaaaah! I! AM! ERIK! The great Erik! Those who stand in my way shall die! All of them! Kill them all!"
Bai Ming, however, was even more excited than the Erik Bloodaxe before him. "Heeheeheeheehee, Erik the Red of the Berserkers? Then let me, Bai Ming, see what you're made of! Wield your weapon to your heart's content and entertain me!"
Bai Ming immediately drew his halberd and slammed it fiercely against Erik's great axe. Bai Ming's immense strength sent Erik Bloodaxe staggering back a considerable distance.
Bai Ming swung his halberd a couple of times. "My hands have been bored stiff for the past two days. Come on, horned bull, again, again!"
"GAAAAAA!"
Despite lacking much rationality, Erik Bloodaxe could still discern that the man before him was provoking him. He roared and charged forward with his battle axe.
"You think you're the only one who can shout? I can too! Receive the war cry of the beastmen!"
Bai Ming also charged at Erik. "Waaaaagh!!!"
The commotion caused by the collision of Bai Ming and Erik was immense. Coupled with Bai Ming's loud battle cries during the fight, it was easy for Mash and Drake to locate Bai Ming, who was currently dominating Erik.
Erik swung his axe with great force, and Bai Ming did the same.
The halberd and axe clashed incessantly, sending sparks flying. Erik roared continuously, while Bai Ming's face was filled with excitement. "Useless, useless, useless, useless! All your moves are useless! How dare someone so weak talk about killing everyone in front of me!"
"GAAAAAAA!"
Erik Bloodaxe remained silent, only roaring and swinging his axe.
The weapons clanged against each other. Even without reason, Erik Bloodaxe could instinctively sense the danger Bai Ming posed.
Bai Ming's smile was utterly unrestrained. "If this is all you've got, then die—"
In an instant, Bai Ming stopped toying with Erik Bloodaxe. His halberd, imbued with the power of stars and mana, flew from his hand, hurled at Erik Bloodaxe. Under immense force, Erik Bloodaxe's axe was knocked away along with Bai Ming's halberd. Bai Ming then landed three consecutive punches, killing Erik Bloodaxe and letting out a victor's cry. "Wryyyyyy! There has only ever been one victor, and that is me, Bai Ming!"
"Senpai... has gone completely mad again..."
Mash covered her face. Just as she was about to say something, Drake shouted, "I smell treasure!" and disappeared into the jungle.
"Or maybe... next time, Senpai should just fix the singularity himself?"
The moment this thought arose, Mash immediately killed it. If she wasn't there, her senior might just slaughter his way through the entire singularity. Absolutely not!
Group Number
I disbanded the previous group and created a new one. Don't ask why I disbanded it; it was just a joke with my friend, but my friend didn't realize how much pressure I was under.
So please don't blame my friend, as it will only make me feel worse. Thank you, everyone.

Chapter 63: Two Muscular Giants Collide
At this moment, Mash couldn't help but worry about Roman back at Chaldea.
After all, Bai Ming had killed such a robust Servant with just three punches after discarding his weapon. The doctor's... wait a minute?
Mash suddenly realized that Doctor Roman's identity was not simple. If Doctor Roman were just a doctor with a bit of fighting ability, why would her senior like to drag Roman along as a sparring partner?
Just as Mash was about to get an answer from Bai Ming, Drake burst out laughing again. "Fantastic, we're rich! Look what I found! A great ship built by Vikings in the ninth century! Hey, man, and Mash, come with me quickly!"
Mash and Bai Ming boarded the Viking's great ship. Seeing Drake excitedly pull out a book, Mash said, "What a disappointment, there's no legendary treasure!"
"What are you talking about? When Vikings sailed, they recorded all information from their departure point to their destination using pictures and text – the shape of the coast, the location of sandbanks, and the nature and direction of ocean currents. Nothing could be more valuable treasure than this!"
"Ah... so this is the legendary 'knowledge is wealth'?" Mash asked with surprise. "Tangible knowledge is comparable to vast treasures—"
"Stop the nonsense, Mash," Bai Ming said, patting Drake on the shoulder. "Golden Hind, set sail! Target the next island! We need to hurry back and see how that idiot Akuta Hinako messed up in the second singularity!"
"Yo, full of enthusiasm! Let me see, fresh ink. It does record nearby islands. Then, let's go!"
"Eh... wait!"
Mash, who had intended to sort out the current situation, was immediately sandwiched between Drake and Bai Ming and brought back to the Golden Hind.
As the pirate flag was raised once more, the Golden Hind set sail on the sea again.
◇
After navigating through a change in ocean currents and engaging in a battle with unknown pirates, the Golden Hind smoothly arrived beside a new island. Before Mash could say anything, Drake and Bai Ming rushed out together.
"They just charged onto this island without any information..."
Mash felt a sense of being the external brain for Drake and Bai Ming. Then, she shouted while running, "Ahhh! Senpai! Wait for me! There's a Leyline point here, aren't you going to set up a summoning circle?"
"Huh? What do you need that for?" Bai Ming retorted. "Do you expect to summon any sea battle specialists out here on the ocean? This is a time for courage and brute force to solve everything! As a knight, all you need to do is steel your resolve and charge with me!"
Bai Ming and Drake had only run a short distance when a massive earthquake struck.
"What a huge earthquake, get down!" Drake yelled.
"Get down for what! It's just a little earthquake, eat this Earth Soothing Spell!" Bai Ming chanted, forming hand seals and forcefully stopping the earthquake. He then continued to charge forward without looking back.
"Your Master..." Drake didn't know how to describe Bai Ming for a moment.
She could only say that Bai Ming was even more eccentric than she was.
"Senpai isn't usually like this, but when it comes to saving the world, he turns into 'I'm going to beat up all you troublesome guys'," Mashu said, looking at Drake with a strained expression. "Captain Drake, are you injured?"
"Who do you think I am? I'm not injured, I'm perfectly fine," Drake replied, glancing at Bai Ming who had already disappeared. "I was planning to return to the ship to make a new plan, but it looks like we'll just have to charge through like this."
However, when the two of them ran in the direction Bai Ming had charged, Bai Ming had already entered a very suspicious underground labyrinth.
Just as Mashu was about to proceed cautiously, Drake yelled, "It's a legendary underground palace! My pirate blood is boiling!" and rushed in.
Mashu took a deep breath and calmly followed him in.
◇ Inside the Underground Labyrinth
Bai Ming randomly darted through the labyrinth, discovering quite a few Dragon Tooth Warriors and Arm of Dawn. He immediately began hoarding them.
After clearing a few waves of minor enemies, Bai Ming made a decision: "Alright, after I wreck this labyrinth, I'll conjure a Water-Repelling Spell to catch some fish in the sea. I'll also ask Drake where Atlantis was earlier and go pick up Poseidon's corpse myself."
Moreover, Bai Ming's patience was limited in the labyrinth. If he kept running for a while longer without finding the BOSS or being able to destroy the labyrinth, he would ask the system for a map cheat.
Just as Bai Ming was about to continue exploring, he heard a powerful roar from deep within the underground palace.
"Powerful, so powerful!" Bai Ming exclaimed, his excitement akin to Tom Cat spotting a female cat. He immediately ran towards the direction of the roar.
