Chapter 128 Holy Son

The shallow ocean is rich and colorful. Corals grow vigorously under the sunlight, and large schools of fish swim among the coral reefs. It is no different from any other ocean I have ever seen, except that now there are crystal spots of light in my field of vision, scattered among the waves to form light bands.

The ocean is far more beautiful than what the human eye can see.

Those creatures and colors hidden in the water that humans cannot see, for a moment I seemed to be able to see the direction of the ocean currents, and there was a feeling that the real-life map of the German map had become mysterious.

[…There’s no need for such a realistic description.]

"Uncle Liu and the others haven't arrived yet." Yang Muqi was floating near me, but at a distance from me. It was obvious that my current face had an impact on them.

"They seem to be trapped by something. Let's go over and take a look." He took a dashboard-like object and looked at it carefully. I made an OK gesture, and he sprayed water forward, almost splashing it on my face.

Sorry, I forgot that octopuses swim by jets.

Silently paddling over to them.

Human lungs contain a large amount of air, so it is difficult to dive as long as there is air in the lungs. However, due to alienation, we have started to breathe through gills. I don’t know if there have been any changes in our internal organs, but now it is extremely easy to control ascent and descent.

In every sense, it has nothing to do with humans.

And she's not some singing little mermaid from a fairy tale. My hands can probably pry open the skull easily now.

I was able to defeat a group of monsters in the last dungeon with my bare hands.

In the ocean, the more beautiful something is, the more dangerous it is.

I followed Yang Muqi and swam forward. We rode the ocean current and swam very smoothly. We passed three coral reefs and underwater reefs. We should have all come out from the white house, but our locations in the sea were very far apart, as if we were randomly dropped in - maybe this is also the mystery of the white house.

Uncle Liu, Sister Yu and Xiao Zhang were together, surrounded by several other contestants.

One of them was mutated and looked like a jellyfish. Its transparent tentacles were longer than my fish tail and flashed with bioluminescence. It looked particularly colorful in my sight. I could tell at a glance that it was highly poisonous, and Sister Yu seemed to have been poisoned.

She's almost flipping over!

I subconsciously accelerated and was in front of Sister Yu in an instant, without thinking about how unreasonable my speed was.

He pulled off the jellyfish tentacles wrapped around Yu Jie's body with his bare hands, tore them apart roughly, and then tied them into a bow.

“Hmm—”

The bow tentacles float in the water like some kind of oden ingredient.

It looked delicious, so I thought about it and resisted the urge to put it in my mouth.

Shi Sang, you just turned into a fish, not a real fish, you can't eat it, this is a human transformation!!!

The long tentacles came towards me. The nails on my hands were not vegetarian at all. I didn't even need to take out the bone spurs to easily cut off the tentacles. Its poison had no effect on me. My skin was still pale and looked bloodless. I felt that I was suitable for trimming the tentacles of jellyfish. After all, for most jellyfish, if they were tied into a knot, it would be impossible to untie it.

"So - why did you attack my teammates?" Yang Muqi followed closely and checked Sister Yu's injuries. He looked at the jellyfish in front of him and the scallops, squid, and lionfish behind him.

...This description really feels like watching some ocean documentary.

I am a beautiful little mermaid sandwiched between them and the style of painting is wrong. Theirs is a documentary style, and mine is a fantasy style.

"Have you forgotten the rule that humans can't kill each other?"

The color of Yang Muqi's body kept changing because of his anger. Octopuses are creatures that have mimicry, and he didn't seem to be an ordinary octopus. As he became more angry, circles flashing with deep blue light gradually appeared on his body.

Blue-ringed octopus.

Why does he have a second form???

"But we are not human beings now..." The scallop opened a crack, and a human face appeared inside. His face had been so distorted that it no longer looked human. A row of more than a dozen round eyes had grown in the place of his eyes, occupying half of his face.

I:……

This is so ugly I'm going to file for work-related injury. The last time I saw something this ugly was when I saw the real bodies of those evil gods!!!

This will definitely drop san, right?

"From the perspective of the food chain, it is normal for us to hunt prey." The jellyfish man jumped, and his colorful umbrella-shaped body swayed beautifully in the water.

"In this world, once you begin to transform and enter the ocean, you become part of the ocean's ecosystem. Everything is based on the ocean's ecological cycle. This is the rule set by the Sea God." The jellyfish man wanted to float in front of Yang Muqi, but when he saw me, he probably thought of his broken tentacle and silently floated back. "Don't you know this rule?"

Yang Muqi fell silent. At the same time, I noticed that the nearby water flow became turbulent, and the fluorescent spots wrapped in the ocean began to rotate irregularly.

——Something is approaching.

"Do you know who is the overlord of the shallow sea ecosystem?"

A shadow loomed overhead, and I looked up to see a massive creature.

A seven-meter-long black and white fish tail, dark skin, a body several sizes larger than me, a baby face but with sharp nails and teeth, and red eyes.

Killer whale mermaid.

He is particularly pleasing to the eye compared to those alienated and deformed people.

Yang Muqi is even worse than him.

No wonder they are so confident. If they really have such powerful teammates, they can certainly stop or even kill people from other teams - for these veteran players in high-end fields, every contestant of the same level is a competitor.

These are all obstacles for them to win the championship this season.

If it weren't for the "no killing each other" rule in overlapping spaces, they might have gone crazy killing each other. Now that they have this opportunity, they certainly won't let it go.

And judging from their appearance, they must have already tried it.

——After all, we are not the first team to enter the sea.

I felt a sense of peace as I watched the killer whale mermaid.

Maybe it's like this: although it looks scary, but... in the ocean, I am the fish at the top of the food chain.

[Human, host, it’s a human!!!]

Can mermaids and mermen be the same?!

"Captain Yang... do you want to fight?"

I turned to look at Yang Muqi, and I was surprised by the uncontrollable excitement in my voice.

"We don't want to fight them, and they don't seem to want to let us go either." He said slowly, "How far can you go?"

I grinned, and the person opposite me seemed to be confused for a moment, but then quickly recovered his expression and frowned, looking at me with a more complicated look. "I - can kill him."

I pointed my finger towards the top of my head and said this in front of everyone. Then, the moment I finished speaking, my tail moved, and in the blink of an eye, my right hand, holding a still-beating heart, returned to its original position. Only the sudden appearance of bubbles and the turbulence of the water flow proved that I had just moved. The heart was almost as big as my head, and it was all fixed in place by my fingernails.

Blue blood spread in the water, and everyone tasted a fishy smell.

It smells so good.

It's kind of delicious.

I really want to eat it.

I really want to swallow it.

…

No, the little mermaid can't eat this kind of thing!!!

[Host, you can't eat this kind of thing! ! ! ]

…

Everyone was stunned for a moment. The huge monster that had just appeared was floating above their heads with its eyes open and dead before they could even open their mouths.

Blood from his chest floated along the ocean current, attracting the surrounding fish.

The culprit looked at Yang Muqi with an innocent look on his face while holding a huge heart.

His pearly white hair floated in the water, his extremely charming face had a hint of a smile, his golden eyes had a sacred and solemn solemnity, the blue-purple scales under his eyes were like gems, and his long fish tail was gorgeous and powerful.

Beautiful, sparkling, and seductive.

No one could tell what kind of creature he had transformed into.

He is like a real siren, but also like an innocent child who knows nothing.

Even holding a heart in your hand feels like holding something sacred.

Ah, he is so beautiful—

It's so dangerous——

Not even dirty blood can stain him in the slightest.

…

wrong.

Yang Muqi slapped his face hard and came to his senses.

Shi Sang was still looking at him, but they were definitely bewitched by him just now - and it was not Shi Sang's intention, but more like it was something he had naturally.

And the fighting power he displayed...was it his own, or was it brought about by alienation?

"...Great, but what are you going to do with this heart?"

He forced himself to calm down. Shi Sang's high fighting ability was not a bad thing for them. It was just that he was a little confused about Shi Sang now. The feeling he just gave him was too dangerous.

That's the feeling of a real beast.

“…Throw it away and feed it to the fish.”

I said with some regret.

It smells really good, but eating people is still too advanced, and I'm not a Hanba.

Looking at the school of fish attracted by the smell of blood, even a person this big can eat the fish quickly.

Wow, I didn’t feel hungry at all in the white house before.

I grabbed a fish swimming nearby as a vent for my anger, threw away the heart in my hand, washed my hands with sea water, then used my fingernails to gut the fish and pick out the belly meat.

Kill and eat immediately, the main feature is fresh sashimi, a different kind of enjoyment.

That’s great. Sea water has its own salty taste. It would be nice if there was some lemon juice or wasabi to enhance the flavor.

Yang Muqi: ...

[It feels like Yang Muqi wants to complain again.]

After eating two pieces of fish belly, they looked at the four people, jellyfish, scallops, squid and lionfish, who were still standing there. They finally reacted and turned around to run, but Yang Muqi was faster than them.

His tentacles had already wrapped around the slowest lionfish and jellyfish, while Uncle Liu and Xiao Zhang went straight for the scallops, and Wenwen bit the squid in one bite.

Slaughtered on site.

The blue-ringed octopus's venom is still slightly better, and the bone spur on Xiao Zhang's head is simply amazing for prying shells.

Squid is already on the catshark's diet.

From this point of view, we are still better when it comes to the food chain.

——Sister Chunchun Yu is in trouble.

The paralyzing poison in her body had not completely disappeared, so she could only get close to me.

"Captain Yang, is it okay to kill them?"

Xiao Zhang pried open the scallop. The scallop man inside was already half dead. He looked at Yang Muqi with concern. Yang Muqi nodded. He had already peeled off the umbrella of the jellyfish. "They didn't receive any warning, and the props have been moved. They must have killed a few people before, so they dared to attack us."

After hearing what Yang Muqi said, the others acted decisively.

There was no time to even listen to the plea for mercy.

"It seems there are more people going into the sea than we thought. I wonder if anyone has already gone into the deep sea." After dealing with a few people, we gathered together. Yang Muqi adjusted the instrument panel in his hand, "Let's go from the continental shelf to the deep sea. We are still dozens of kilometers away from the location of the Sea God."

Therefore, they cannot see the bright spots of ocean currents in the water.

Use props to confirm direction.

…

I looked at the clear navigation next to me. Although I didn't know where it led to, I felt more special.

After detoxifying Sister Yu, he waved and walked ahead, "Let's go."

——————————

The water depth of the continental shelf does not exceed two hundred meters, and in some sea areas it is only a dozen meters. Most of the time, sunlight can penetrate, so when the sea gradually brightens, we all realize that it is daybreak.

This means that we are still a long way from the deep sea, but I have seen many traces of civilization on these oceans and lands. I don’t know whether they are current civilizations or past civilizations.

But there must be civilization under the sea.

And there is also race - of course this is Yang Muqi's speculation.

I won't make any comments. After all, I am sure that the legendary sea goddess Arinea still exists and is one of the protagonist slices.

It is difficult to say whether he, a god, can be considered a civilization.

So when we finally dived two thousand meters into the deep sea and found "people", even I was shocked.

It was at this moment that I suddenly realized what the red circle on the nautical chart was.

——Are there really people in your sea?

I stared in amazement at the church-like building in front of me. Even though it was in the sea, the walls of the church were not covered with algae. Instead, they were made of pure white stone and had not been eroded by the sea water.

This place looks a bit like a white house, and in front of the church there is an open space with various entertainment facilities - the entertainment facilities in our common sense.

Swings, slides, trampolines, parallel bars and parallel bars.

There are also children swimming around with the fish in this open space and running around on various recreational equipment.

...Even if these children have some fish characteristics to a greater or lesser extent, they are still children.

"Captain Yang, am I seeing things right?"

"You're not mistaken." Yang Muqi's voice was calm. "They should be the indigenous people living in the sea."

Then a male mermaid in a black robe and with a long black fishtail noticed us. He assumed an attacking posture for a moment, and then seemed stunned.

It swam in front of us at an extremely fast speed. Yang Muqi and the others immediately became alert and prepared to attack.

“…&￥#$#@”

...an obscure language came out of the male mermaid's mouth.

They may not have understood, but I did.

“…Lord Holy Son!”

…

Who are you calling the Holy Son? !
