Boiling Sea

For now, Xiao Yu is unlikely to shake off the title of the weakest Elemental Lords in history. He needs to level up slowly, and the leveling speed becomes extremely slow after level 30. Even with a group of minions helping him fight monsters, leveling up one or two levels a day is the limit. It will only get slower after level 40. Who knows when he will reach the maximum level? Moreover, Xiao Yu doesn't have the time to focus on leveling up. He can only improve slowly on the journey.

I hope to encounter another large-scale war in the future, and take the opportunity to level up a few times.

Gaining reputation points isn't easy either; it takes over two thousand reputation points to reach level 1 Skull, so it'll have to be done gradually.

However, if you lack strength, you can make up for it with your appearance. Although you can't improve your hard power for the time being, you can start with your soft power. First, give yourself a unique appearance, at least to boost your aura. Right now, apart from being bigger, his appearance is similar to that of an ordinary Water Elemental, so it is very necessary to improve it.

Many monsters, once they reach a certain level of strength, can gain the ability to transform their appearance. For example, when Dragon Clan reach the Ancient Dragon level, they can transform into humanoid creatures. While Elemental Lords cannot transform into humanoid creatures, they can make their appearance more humanoid and can also use some equipment. However, the equipment used by elemental creatures is completely different from that used by ordinary humanoid creatures, such as the Balrog Lord's Hammer of the Balrog.

Open the skin interface; Xiao Yu currently has five skins to choose from, the first being the default skin.

Azathoth, the Water Elemental Lord (Classic) – He looks much like any other Water Elemental Lord, with a swirling lower body and a humanoid upper body, except that his chest area faintly emits a red glow.

In addition to these, there are several other paid skins that can be purchased with in-game currency.

Raging Torrent Azathoth - With water constantly flowing around him, he looks like a dynamic version of Water Elemental Lord, which is alright. Price: 1000 points.

Scourge of the Sea Azathoth – looks somewhat like a sea Elemental Lords, covered in seaweed, with Xiao Yu swimming inside him, and even half a sunken ship stuck to his body; the design is truly bizarre. Priced at 2000 points.

Tranquil Water Azathoth – A blue-toned Water Elemental Lord. The vortex below his body is no longer surging; the entire Water Elemental looks very calm, which is quite beautiful, but he doesn't look powerful at all. Price: 2000 Points.

Boiling Sea Azathoth (Exclusive) - A figure entirely red, radiating scorching steam, occasionally spewing out a stream of steam from its body. It looks somewhat like a hybrid of a fire demon lord and Water Elemental Lord, quite stylish indeed. 2000 points.

A Song of Ice and Fire Azathoth (Epic Exclusive) – A figure made of ice, encased in flames, whose appearance is simply indescribable, looking extremely bizarre. Xiao Yu seriously doubted whether the current game engine would neutralize itself, and the price of 5900 points left Xiao Yu speechless.

To become the strongest BOSS, you can't do without a cool look. Despite not being rich, Xiao Yu gritted his teeth and bought an exclusive skin for the Boiling Sea.

The bizarre three-headed figure that was originally like that of an ordinary Water Elemental instantly became tall and robust, with an upper body that resembled a human's, and you could even see clearly defined muscles (of course, made of water). Its face also became like a human's, and it even looked kind of handsome.

After changing his appearance, Xiao Yu logged out of the game and sent an email to Liu Xiaoyu from the login screen, telling him the location and route to Hydra City. Then he returned to the game.

There was quite a distance between the Mermaid Kingdom and Hydra City, and it also involved crossing the Naga territory. With no idea when the Naga would arrive, Xiao Yu strolled around the city, admiring the city he ruled and showing off his new look.

This look is indeed eye-catching; as he walks by, the other players all turn their heads to look at him.

Just as he was feeling smug, Wotkud came looking for him.

Water Elemental Wotkud: "Lord Azathoth, there's something I need to ask you. Should we demolish those fish farms?"

The Fishman's Workshop is where the Naga craft equipment. Xiao Yu hesitated for a moment, thinking it was theoretically useless, but since he had nothing better to do, he decided to go and take a look.

So he turned and headed towards the fish farm.

The fish workshops are located below Hydra City, near the underwater plains. There are four of them, and each workshop can accommodate fifty fishman artisans. They are mainly responsible for crafting weapons and equipment for the Naga. Although the Naga have a strange appearance, they are strictly speaking humanoid creatures and are also capable of using weapons and armor.

Upon seeing Xiao Yu's arrival, the fishman elders in charge of managing the fish workshop immediately surrounded him and bowed respectfully to Xiao Yu.

Xiao Yu ignored them and looked at some weapons and armor that had already been made in the workshop.

Azathoth (Water Elemental Lord): "Is this the equipment you forged?"

"Yes, Lord Azathoth, these are all made according to blueprints. We have the best craftsmen who can forge excellent equipment."

Xiao Yu picked up a few pieces of equipment and checked their attributes.

Tideslasher's Blade (Fine - Two-handed Sword), Wavebreaker Spear (Fine - Polearm), Tidal Bulwark (Excellent - Shield), Tidecaller's Staff (Excellent - Staff).

Xiao Yu examined each piece of equipment. Most of them were level 30 or higher, with some even reaching level 40. This was already the mainstream level in the game. He couldn't help but sigh, "There are quite a few good items here." If he were to sell these for money—well, probably not much. These blue and green quality equipment were basically only at the level of quest reward equipment, still a bit inferior to the top-tier equipment dropped in dungeons.

Selling it for gold coins at the auction house is okay, but if you're selling it for in-game currency, you're lucky if you can get a few dozen dollars for one item.

(But wait, this is!) Xiao Yu suddenly noticed a rather unusual weapon. It was a longsword with a curved shape, made of a very peculiar material, neither iron nor stone, but gleaming like obsidian.

[Name: Fang of Sgelari) ]

[Category: Weapons - One-Handed Sword]

[Quality: Epic - Requires Level 40]

[Function: Attack 37-60]

[Equipment Effect (Passive): Demigod's Bite (Poison): Upon hitting a target, there is a chance to poison the target, dealing 1785 Nature damage over 30 seconds.]

[Note: The longsword, forged from the shed teeth of the Hydra demigod Sgelari, is not only exceptionally sharp but also imbued with Sgelari's special abilities.]
