Chapter 165: Breaking into the Shell (Two-in-One Mega Chapter) _2
Immediately following, he leapt into the air again like a large bird and flew toward the stern of the three-masted sailboat "The Wreck."
At this moment, the beautiful Navy Major Mary, with her cherry lips wide open enough to fit an apple, stared with wide eyes, unable to recover her wits for a long time.
It was as if her expression was frozen in that moment forever.
It wasn't until Rein was flying straight from the dock to the stern of "The Wreck" that she came back to her senses, muttering, "He has this... this kind of strength, why doesn't he join the others... And what is he planning to do?"
"The stern..."
Evelyn, the redhead girl, also widened her eyes quickly, watching Rein's figure as he soared toward the stern of "The Wreck." However, her mind was rapidly trying to grasp Rein's intentions.
The few maneuvers he just executed had already demonstrated that Rein was undoubtedly an expert not inferior to her.
But she was still somewhat perplexed as to why Rein was doing this!
Why not take the common approach and board "The Wreck" using the gangplank?
At this moment, the gangplank of "The Wreck" had not been removed and was still connected to the dock; with his strength, it should have been a breeze for him to barge in.
Running to the stern...
Could it be, he thought there would be fewer people if he boarded from the stern?
It seemed that was the only explanation!
The redhead girl nodded to herself, thinking in secret.
And the Navy officer standing next to Major Mary, whose strength had reached that of a Peak Knight, was also looking at Rein with a face full of surprise. A thought instantly crossed his mind.
That was that this young man could very likely create an explosive scene for them.
Additionally, he murmured softly, "This is definitely not just a knight who has stepped into the Transcendent realm for the first time; not even a seasoned knight's muscle changes can be this exaggerated, could he be...."
A bit farther away, a Navy Rear Admiral and the middle-aged man from the examination group both raised their eyebrows, their eyes clearly revealing surprise.
"Could it be he wants to directly attack the captain's cabin?"
"But the hull thickness of a three-masted sailboat is a full thirty centimeters at least," said the middle-aged man with a mustache, seemingly discerning Rein's goal, speaking quietly.
"That should be the case," the Navy Rear Admiral nodded, agreeing with the opinion of the mustachioed middle-aged nobleman.
Just as everyone on shore was watching to see what Rein would do next,
Rein, while descending, perfectly landed both feet and stood firmly on the Glimmering Greatsword wedged into the hull.
Due to his body weight and the force of his high leap, the sword body, which was exceptionally flexible because it was mixed with stardust iron, immediately bent about thirty degrees, like a tightly pulled bow.
At that moment, Rein bent his knees in preparation for a jump.
Rein's bent knees suddenly straightened with force, combining with the upward elasticity of the sword body. Rein, holding the Massive Hammer, shot up more than four meters high.
"Strength Burst!"
Simultaneously, his already bulging muscles swelled even more as he swung the Massive Hammer heavily—using "Unbreakable Strength," from bottom to top, spinning 360 degrees with a rotating force, he fiercely hammered toward the location of the small round window in the hefty hull.
For there was the captain's resting chamber of "The Wreck!"
"Rising Dragon Hammer!"
At this time, inside the captain's resting chamber of "The Wreck,"
En was biting into his own finger, dripping blood drop by drop onto a slender water grass.
Suddenly, he seemed to catch a fleeting glimpse of a dark shadow passing by the small window at the side of the captain's room.
As he looked intently with confusion,

Suddenly!
"Boom!"
The thick wooden hull, thirty centimeters in front of his desk, burst apart with a loud bang!
Countless tiny wooden splinters, under the impact of a tremendous force, scattered in all directions!
These pieces of wood of varying sizes and bizarre shapes, with extremely sharp edges, scattered like a storm of high-speed bullets, overwhelming En and the other two people in the room!
If it was just the shards of the hull, it wouldn't be too much of a concern, as all three were at a Transcendent level and would only sustain minor external injuries at most.
But as the three of them raised their hands to block the splinters attacking their eyes, something happened that terrified En to the core!
Through the gaps between his fingers, he saw a massive, gleaming dark metallic hammer, along with the flying storm of wood shavings, coming down from above, fiercely targeting his forehead.
"Earth-splitting Hammer!"
At that very moment, the Wizard Apprentice instinct within En overwhelmed the Knight instinct. His immediate reaction wasn't to roll and dodge, but to use spiritual power to trigger the life-saving amulet on his chest.
This amulet was a one-time instantaneous witchcraft tool that En was loath to use unless it was a critical moment.
Just like the sudden storm of wood shavings that had just occurred, he had not been willing to use it.
"Ah!!!"
With a scream from En, the amulet on his chest burst open, and at the same time, a water-blue film instantly enveloped him.
With the protection of this shield-like film, En no longer panicked at the incoming hammer, his terrified expression calming down a lot.
"Sss!"
The sharp end of the black Massive Hammer, full of dense black spikes, hit the water-blue film forcefully, immediately denting it significantly.
Then, to En's disbelief, the longest and thickest of those spikes actually pierced straight through his "water film shield."
