Soon, a block of ice appeared on the frozen surface.
Luo Feng looked at the perfectly transparent ice block and smiled, saying, "This ability of yours seems quite impressive. It's still completely transparent even now. No wonder others can't kill you pirates. Today, I shall deliver justice on behalf of heaven."
The people on Black Tortoise's back watched curiously as Luo Feng spoke to a block of ice like this. Had Wang Haifei already turned into ice?
Su Yunxi found this transformation strangely familiar. Her Talent allowed her to morph into any form, though the cost was significant. Currently, she could only transform into living creatures with life essence. Substances like water were still beyond her current capabilities. But once her level was high enough, she could theoretically become any object.
Without hesitation, Luo Feng swung the Heaven Splitting Axe, cleaving the ice block into several pieces. When the fragments shattered, the sight that followed startled the surrounding women. The broken ice had transformed into human body parts—a head, arms, internal organs, legs, and more.
Seeing that Wang Haifei's head remained intact, Luo Feng nodded in satisfaction. "This head is worth ten thousand Ocean Coins—definitely worth the price. With abilities like Wang Haifei's, getting killed is no easy feat. And this is just one of the four deputy captains of the Hurricane Pirate Crew."
Luo Feng collected only Wang Haifei's head and any valuable items on his person before moving on. As for the Hurricane Pirate Ship, he didn't immediately store it in his space ring. Instead, his gaze shifted to the three Golden Treasure Chests.
During the battle, these chests hadn't fled. They had lingered in the distance, almost as if watching the spectacle unfold. Luo Feng had been observing them the entire time. While fighting, his main focus had actually been on these Golden Treasure Chests. The pirates could be spared, but the chests? Those were non-negotiable.
Among the three chests, one had already been snagged by the Legendary Grappling Hook and was secured on Black Tortoise's back. Luo Feng moved toward it first—better to secure the easier target before dealing with the remaining two.
Even though the chest was hooked, it still resisted. After several minutes, Luo Feng finally managed to claim it. Staring at the Golden Treasure Chest in his hands, his face lit up with excitement and joy. This was a higher-tier chest—who knew what treasures lay inside?
His curiosity was mirrored by the three beauties beside him. Tang Xuewei and Su Yunxi, both players who had crossed over, were very familiar with such chests. They knew well the kind of rewards these containers could yield, especially since this was a Golden Treasure Chest—making it all the more enticing.
Without wasting another moment, Luo Feng prepared to open it. When you had a Golden Treasure Chest in hand, there was no point in waiting. Good things were meant to be used immediately.
Luo Feng extended his right hand with practiced ease to open the Golden Treasure Chest.
The Golden Treasure Chest was opened.
A brilliant golden light emerged from within.
Yet, the familiar chime of the system notification did not sound.
Instead, the Golden Treasure Chest in his hand vanished into thin air.
This scene not only left Luo Feng utterly bewildered but also stunned the onlookers who had been waiting for a spectacle.
Could this be an empty Golden Treasure Chest?
That defied all logic.
Even a Wooden Treasure Chest wouldn't be completely empty—it should at least contain a piece of lumber or a palm leaf as a token reward.
Luo Feng's brows furrowed deeply. Could he really be this unlucky? After all the effort to obtain a Golden Treasure Chest, had it just disappeared like this?
He quickly shifted his gaze to the distance, where the other two Golden Treasure Chests remained.
Since this one had yielded nothing, he couldn't afford to let the other two slip away.
Otherwise, this would be a massive loss.
The others also turned their attention to the two remaining Golden Treasure Chests in the distance.
But when they looked over, what they witnessed next struck them with overwhelming shock.
Their faces twisted in disbelief and horror.
Because, in the distance, they saw not two—but three Golden Treasure Chests.
No, their eyes weren't deceiving them. There were indeed three Golden Treasure Chests standing there.
Exactly as they had been before.
Su Yunxi rubbed her eyes and looked again—still three. She wasn't hallucinating.
This only deepened her incredulity.
Luo Feng's expression darkened as he observed the distant scene, his brows knitting tightly in thought. What was going on?
One Golden Treasure Chest had already been hooked and retrieved—so why were there still three?
Could this be some special ability of these Golden Treasure Chests?
Silently, Luo Feng activated his Clairvoyance Charm, but the result was the same as before—the charm couldn't penetrate the treasure chests.
Based on his recent experience, a bold speculation formed in Luo Feng's mind: Could it be that opening just one Golden Treasure Chest yielded nothing?
Did all three need to be opened simultaneously?
Whether this guess was correct or not, Luo Feng was determined to secure all three Golden Treasure Chests.
These chests were far too unusual.
Whatever lay inside was definitely no ordinary prize.
With this thought, Luo Feng spoke in a low voice, "Get ready. This time, we must secure these Golden Treasure Chests at all costs."
He continued, "From now on, we're going all out."
Hearing his words, the group responded in unison, "Understood. We're ready."
Even the women among them had noticed the peculiar nature of these Golden Treasure Chests.
Their expressions turned grave.
The Black Tortoise beneath Luo Feng surged forward at an incredible speed, charging toward the three Golden Treasure Chests.
The chests, sensing their approach, immediately began to flee.
This time, the Black Tortoise pursued them at its maximum speed.
Its swiftness far surpassed that of the Golden Treasure Chests.
The distance between them rapidly shrank.
Luo Feng noticed the situation and couldn't help but smile. After all, a treasure chest was still a treasure chest.
Could it possibly outsmart him?
Luo Feng took out his Legendary Grappling Hook again. He only needed to wait until he was within a hundred meters of the Golden Treasure Chests to make his move.
This time, after obtaining a Golden Treasure Chest, Luo Feng wouldn't open it immediately.
The distance between him and the three Golden Treasure Chests was getting closer and closer.
Just as they were about to reach the hundred-meter mark, something unexpected suddenly began to happen.
