Arc 2The Grotto and the Ghost Ship
Luo Yu expanded his institute’s research, trained Wang Ze’s students, and pursued a way to evolve July through the Ancient Evolution Stone. He joined Shui Wuyue’s voyage to Thousand Rock Island, where July’s fishing brought aboard an undercover investigator who warned that pirates planned to attack Mirror Moon Island.
- Luo Yu defeated Bing Liang’s Cold Mist Lizard with July, then accepted Wang Ze’s request to train Bing Liang, Mi Xiaoyu, and Zhuang Feng for the Mirror Moon Celebration.
- Luo Yu trained the students with special Honey Water Bee stings, and their strong results at the school assessment helped him secure funding and a bee farm.
- Luo Yu hired Yu Wan, Lin Li, and Chen Bo at his institute, bred Ink Fish for useful talents, and investigated the Ancient Grotto’s evolution stone after July failed to evolve.
- Luo Yu discovered that rock-type nutrients helped Waterfallen Chickens evolve, then sought to improve July’s rock affinity and requested wild Earth Penguins for research.
- Luo Yu contacted An Yao about the Ancient Grotto and agreed to travel to Thousand Rock Island with Yu Wan and Chen Bo aboard Shui Wuyue’s ghost ship, the Raging Blue.
- Shui Wuyue taught Luo Yu about Soul Contracts and ghost-ship piloting, while Luo Yu used soul liquid to leave his body and encountered the Raging Sea Ghost Shark.
- July fished an injured man onto the Raging Blue, and Investigator Handsome revealed that the Wailing Pirate Crew planned to attack Mirror Moon Island during the Tidal Corpse Transformation.
- Shui Wuyue promised to protect Handsome, and Luo Yu planned to test whether a monarch Water Devil Beast with Antivirus Master could destroy large numbers of zombies.
