"What...what's going on?" someone asked in astonishment. "Why would sea monsters and deep-sea creatures save us?"

“Who would have thought that one day we would be rescued by the deep-sea creatures?” another survivor murmured to himself.

Someone said with a wry smile, "Yes, just like no one expected that we would cooperate with Gu Xi."

Li Ruoyang frowned and said in a deep voice, "Now is not the time to dwell on these things. We are at a critical moment for the survival of humanity, and past conflicts are insignificant in the face of such a crisis."

He paused, then continued, "I believe Gu Xi thinks the same way, which is why she accepts all those who are willing to help."

“But,” one survivor said worriedly, “there will surely be some organizations trying to gain fame and profit from this incident, won’t there?”

Li Ruoyang shook his head.

“I don’t deny the possibility. But discussing these things at this time is extremely unwise.”

He looked around and raised his voice, "Even the Black Heart Demon Alliance has put aside their prejudices and joined us in fighting the enemy. As for what happens next, we'll talk about that after we get through this difficult time."

He clenched his fist, his eyes gleaming with determination. "Now, all we need to do is unite and fight this disaster together. Everyone, prepare for battle! We must get to the main battlefield as soon as possible to support Gu Xi and the others!"

Under Li Ruoyang's call, the survivors rallied.

They quickly regrouped and followed the deep-sea creatures and sea monsters as they set off.

As Li Ruoyang led the survivor team forward, they soon caught up with the group of sea monsters and deep-sea creatures.

The deep-sea creatures noticed the human group and began to discuss it amongst themselves.

"Look over there, is that the Deep Sea Human Race?" a young Deep Sea race member asked curiously.

“That should be true,” another experienced deep-sea creature replied, “but judging from their appearance, they’re heading towards the battlefield. Let’s ignore them.”

“I didn’t expect them to be so weak,” commented one of the smaller deep-sea creatures, “yet they still dared to charge into battle.”

“You can’t say that,” said an older deep-sea creature slowly. “Although they may not be strong, their courage and determination are admirable.”

“Yes,” the other deep-sea creatures chimed in, “to dare to charge forward under such circumstances is truly courageous.”

Seeing the indomitable spirit of the deep-sea humans, the deep-sea people couldn't help but feel more favorably toward them.

Just as the deep-sea creatures were discussing, the leading tidal sea dragon made a declaration using its mental power.

"They're getting closer. I can sense the aura of an SSS-rank!"

Everyone—the deep-sea creatures, the sea beasts, and Li Ruoyang and his companions—held their breath. (This chapter has been read. Please click to continue reading the next chapter!)
