The uncrowned king and sea monster located in the true depths of the Barents Sea
…
The video chat continued for another ten minutes. When Ke Ji saw that the little boy on the other end of the video was rubbing his eyes, he looked at Lu Liran and asked in a low voice: “Is the little guy sleepy?”
Lu Liran responded, he turned to Jin Fei and said: “It’s almost Zai-Zai’s bedtime. Let’s take him to bed first. We’ll talk about other things when I get back.”
“Okay, young master.”
After hanging up the video call, Lu Liran and Ke Ji chatted quietly for a while.
For some unknown reason, the deck was very lively and noisy, as if fireworks were being set off. The waves outside the cabin window became colorful and swaying.
“Going for a walk? Let’s eat something while we’re at it.” Ke Ji looked at Lu Liran and extended an invitation.
Lu Liran nodded, and he and Ke Ji walked out of the cabin and walked to the deck.
It’s probably someone’s birthday.
Lu Liran and Ke Ji stood in the corner of the deck and saw a young and beautiful boy surrounded by a crowd, probably surrounded by his friends, waving fireworks sticks in their hands, laughing and making noise, almost lifting the deck of the ship into the sky.
Lu Liran avoided the crowd and went around to the end of the deck. That place was a little quieter, and they also found a group of people who also went to hide here to flee for peace and quiet.
“Looking at the Barents Sea right now, it looks nothing like what we have experienced.” Lu Liran leaned on the railing, looking at the deep but calm sea water in front of him, and said slowly, “It is this peaceful and calm appearance that is most deceptive, making people feel that this sea is not threatening at all.”
Ke Ji turned to look at Lu Liran. He was suddenly curious: “Have you ever been to the Barents Sea before this?”
“Once. Following a team of bounty hunters in the sea.” Lu Liran responded.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he was recalling something: “But that time was also very tragic. A team of six people, each of whom was the most experienced and expected hunter in the sea area. In the end, one died, three were disabled, and one was missing and was probably dead as well.”
Ke Ji took a deep breath: “What about you?”
Lu Liran lifted up his clothes, revealing his strong waist and abdomen. There was a long side scar spanning the front and back of his chest that was extremely hideous. He pointed it out to Ke Ji: “It left me this.”
He grinned when Ke Ji stretched out his hand to touch the scar, it was somewhat ticklish and he dodged, then said with a smile: “It doesn’t hurt anymore.”
“But that time we really lost blood. The ship was gone and the people were gone.” Lu Liran sighed softly.
He still remembered the first night they set out. Everyone drank a shot of twenty-year-old liquor in the narrow cabin. The captain, who said he would wash his hands in a gold basin and go back to hug his granddaughter after finishing this job, was crushed by a tentacle the next day.
“Although we caught a megalodon in the end, the compensation is really nothing compared to the people we lost.” Lu Liran twitched the corner of his mouth and sneered.
It was only after that time that he realized that most of the sea hunters were actually working for the Desolate Star’s organization, and the organization paid for everything they hunted.
The reward for that order was nine million. Excluding the losses of the destroyed ships, which were three million, the remaining six million, including those who were dead and missing, was given to the family members, and each person got a hundred.
After Lu Liran came back that time, he rested for three months before setting off again.

A real loss of blood.

The Blue Hole is also among them, but because of its unique and mysterious submarine circular canyon landform, the Blue Hole attracts many tourists to check in for sightseeing, and there were few accidents. Therefore, its reputation as a popular tourist attraction was much louder than its name of the dangerous uninhabited deep sea.
——But it’s not like nothing has happened. Four or five years ago, a luxury cruise ship was sightseeing in the waters near the Blue Hole. It sank suddenly, leaving only a dozen survivors among the three hundred crew and passengers. They all said they saw a huge sea monster they had never seen before.
Unfortunately, when sea survey experts came to inspect the area afterwards, they found no traces of the activity of giant creatures.
A few months later, the sunken cruise ship suddenly reappeared a few hundred nautical miles away, crumpled into a ball like a tin toy, which no one would have recognized if not for the “Elisir” still visible on the hull.
Since then, the Blue Hole has become even more popular.
Countless people went there and found it both novel and exciting. Even if the Desolate Star government listed the sea area near the Blue Hole as a danger warning area and put up a metal net, it could not resist the enthusiasm of adventure enthusiasts.
There are even special boats that will pick up tourists, as long as they sign a waiver.
Lu Liran heard all this in the wine shop on the first night of that trip. Seasoned sea hunters sneered at this, saying that there must be some king squid-like lord living in the canyon of the Blue Hole who would not leave the mountain for eight hundred years, and will have a big meal when it came out. Those few hundred people four or five years ago were regarded as sacrifices, and there would be peace for the next six or seven years.
The place Lu Liran and the others went that time was deeper and further than the Blue Hole.
Lu Liran closed his eyes, retracted his thoughts, and finally said: “Whether it is the Barents Sea itself or the monsters in the Barents Sea, they are existences that human beings cannot fight against.”
Ke Ji raised his hand and rubbed Lu Liran’s neck, and gently plucked the ends of Lu Liran’s natural curly hair with his fingers. He nodded and said: “En, reverence, equality, and not interfering with each other is the only way to live in harmony with them.”
Lu Liran’s body became a little weak as Ke Ji ruffled the back of his neck, and he couldn’t help but turn around, feeling hot on his face.
He raised his eyes and faced a huge screen at the back of the deck. The screen originally showed a photo of the birthday boy. Maybe it was because the reservation time was over, but the screen turned back to the usual entertainment channel.
At this moment, the entertainment channel was broadcasting a piece of news about a group of poachers being arrested at sea.
“What’s so good about this? Let’s change it.” Many people in the crowd were shouting. They were having a great time, so how could they want to watch this kind of news content.
“Change the channel!”
“Let’s have some music!”
The person holding the switch changed six or seven channels in a row, and all the channels were playing the same content. Only then did the crowd calm down and compromise.
“It’s strange. It’s not a major holiday or anniversary program. Why are all the channels showing this thing at the same time?”
“You’ll know if you take a look.”
“Hey, there’s actually a live video this time? That’s amazing.”
“I remember hearing in the past that filming and recording this kind of scene was not allowed.”
“The official must have a video recording of the scene, otherwise how can we review it if we have to archive the records after the incident is over? But until the case is over, these must be confidential.”
“The ones being released now are all those that can be released. I don’t think this is a poaching den. How come it looks like a deserted island?”
“Eh? Why are there two people dressed as tourists?”
“Shh! I want to hear what the news says! Be quiet!”
Lu Liran and Ke Ji looked at each other and leaned against the railing to watch the news with great interest.
Right from the news: “This time, with the help of two enthusiastic citizens, the authorities not only caught the leader of the poaching gang, but also seized rare animal products worth 283 million star coins and rescued 67 surviving endangered animals.”
“This is the highest amount of money and the largest team poaching gangs arrested and busted in the last decade. In the face of poaching, we will never tolerate poaching.”
The deputy captain’s voice appeared on the news, and Lu Liran recognized it as soon as he heard it. He took a breath, and the amount of money involved was completely beyond his imagination.
280 million star coins! What a concept!
“It’s not a pity for those people to die.” Lu Liran watched seriously, and suddenly felt that Big Eye Xu and Liu San died too lightly.
The leaked video showed Lu Liran and Ke Ji leading the Marine Police team to find the two corpses and the location where the poached goods were hidden. Although they only had side faces, they were still recognized.
“Is one of them that handsome guy?”
“It looks like it to me!”
“The other guy’s clothes are the same, but he has a scary scar on his face. He doesn’t look like the same person at all as the handsome guy next to him.”
“Holy cow, they couldn’t be the ones whom I bumped into, could they?”
“Didn’t the news say that when the Marine Police arrived, the two leaders were already dead? I just saw the censored live video! That bloody…”
“Yeah, yeah, yeah, my mom, the whole forest is censored. I felt like they were cut into pieces.”
“They’re not that vicious, right, those two handsome guys look quite……”
“Poaching 280 million, how many animals have to be killed, and surely they are all of the particularly precious kind. It’s not an exaggeration to think that such a person would be quartered by five horses.”
Lu Liran felt that the gazes around him were getting more and more intense, and he couldn’t help but frown and his face turned cold.
His expression changed, and all those who looked at him secretly looked away, but those whispers that he thought were quiet reached his ears word for word.
“Oh my God, that handsome guy is too fierce?! He stared at me and scared me out of my wits!”
“Now I believe it. Those two handsome guys must have done it. People should not be judged by their appearance.”
“It must be the shorter one. I think he has murderous intent.”
“That’s right, that’s right.”
Lu Liran: “…”
He looked at Ke Ji. In terms of murderous intent, could he still compare to the commander?
These people really have no vision at all.
Ke Ji noticed Lu Liran’s gaze, he smiled softly, then tilted his head and said in Lu Liran’s ear: “Low-key.”
Lu Liran: “…”
The news wasn’t finished yet. In the video, in addition to the previous one on a deserted island, there was also a video of them raising the poaching gang’s lair on land. A poaching gang of about 30 to 40 people was taken over in one go, and there were gun battles and pursuits. The camera was extremely shaken, but there was a sense of excitement from a first-person perspective, and everyone who watched it could not help but feel nervous.
The deck became lively again, and this time everyone was discussing the news just now. Some people were not even afraid of Lu Liran’s cold face, gossip and curiosity took over, and slowly approached Lu Liran.
Lu Liran frowned, and just when he was about to avoid them, the sound of an engine suddenly came from above his head from far to near.
Everyone looked up subconsciously and saw an all-black rare metal airship docking slowly above them.
“What a handsome airship! Is this outer armor the legendary black kryptonite?”
“All black kryptonite armor! How much does it cost!”
“You can’t get it even if you have money!”
“Whose family is so rich?”
The cabin of the ship was opened, Qi Feng was wearing a black coat covering his tall figure, and her cold and competent temperament in a crowd of eating and drinking atmosphere is particularly noticeable.
They saw her striding towards Ke ji and Lu Liran, and said: “Co-…Mr. Lu, Mr. Ke, I’m sorry I’m late. Please get on board.”
Ke Ji nodded lightly and turned to Lu Liran: “Send you back first?”
Lu Liran responded, he looked at the crowd full of gossip and entertainment spirit, and said without any hesitation: “Let’s go.”
If he didn’t leave, he was afraid that he wouldn’t be able to withstand the gossip attacks of that group of people.
Watching Ke Ji and Lu Liran board the airship, the tourists on the deck all sighed:
“I fucking knew it was these two people’s ship!”
“So, rich people like to take risks without thinking. If they hadn’t been rescued by our ship, there would have been one less top rich man in Desolate Star.”
“That’s not right. How come I haven’t heard of such a person? A top rich man of this level has such a good-looking face. There’s no reason why I don’t remember him!”
“Are they from Desolate Star?”
Some people on the top hollow floor looked at the low-profiled airship outside through the cabin window, then exchanged glances with each other, and whispered:
“Those who don’t know the stuff will just think it’s just a layer of black paint, but a knowledgeable person will know at a glance that this thing must at least have something to do with the federal army to get it, right?”
“Black kryptonite can isolate and counter-isolate theft and transmission of information and data, and it is also S-class bulletproof…in my opinion, this kind of airship accommodates at least a person of the level of federal chief of staff.”
“Hiss, didn’t you say before that the Federal Commander-in-Chief is in our Desolate Star? It can’t be true, right?”
“If the commander comes to Desolate Star, how can we not receive news? Besides, the Desolate Star monitors aren’t vegetarians. The commander’s Alpha energy fluctuations are so obvious, it must have been discovered.”
“Also, I’ve heard that the Commander never shows his face, so he must not be very good looking, for fear that if he does, his popularity is going to plummet.”
“It makes sense.”
As Lu Liran listened, he almost turned around and went back to fight with those people.
😆😆😆😆😆
Thanks for the chapter!
Hehehe, so the poacher operation went well. All these third person reactions are fun to see, ending with a final face slapping with Qi Feng coming to pick them up.
Thanks for the update 🤣❤️🤣❤️🤣

Go LuLu defend your hubby!!!
I thought all scars were healed/removed? I mean, it says that even his tanned skin(?) goes back to original color (something like that).
Well, he was in the sun for a while after his skin healed, so it makes sense he’s tanned, if not a lot, then a little bit.
