Chapter 175 The Listening Sea Beast: Wait for me to go back and pack my luggage!
"Alright, I've got this all sorted out." Old Tree's voice carried a hint of relief, as if he had accomplished something great.
"Little one, get ready, we're about to set off."
"Set off?" A hint of confusion flickered in the Listening Sea Beast's mind, followed by a deep longing and reluctance: "Shall we leave now?"
It has been sleeping in this sea for far too long; this is its home.
Although this home is cold, dark, and we are hungry, it is still home.
The old tree seemed to read its mind, its voice tinged with a hint of teasing: "What? You can't bear to part with this hole in your body?"
"Could it be that you have a lot of shiny treasures hidden in your cave that you didn't bring with you?"
"!!!" That one sentence instantly made the Listening Sea Beast lose its emo mood.
"That's right! My treasures!" The Listening Sea Beast instantly became excited! It remembered! Before it fell asleep, although it had hidden away the best treasures, there were still many treasures in the cave! It couldn't lose them!
"Wait! Wait for me!"
The Sea Beast grew anxious: "I...I'll go back and pack! I'll be right back!"
Before the words were even finished, the sea, which had been calming down, was once again blasted open with a huge splash!
The enormous figure of the Listening Sea Beast suddenly turned around and plunged into the deep sea, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye, leaving only huge ripples to prove that it had indeed been there.
On the deck, everyone stared in disbelief at the scene before them.
They're... gone?
Where are the ancient ferocious beasts we were promised? Where are the world-destroying beasts we were promised? It feels like a tenant rushing home to pack their bags when they hear their landlord calling for rent.
Hmm! A bit easy to fool (not in a derogatory sense)!
"call……"
Cheng Gan breathed a long sigh of relief, and her whole body relaxed. Only then did she realize that her back was already soaked with cold sweat.
Zhou Jue turned to Cheng Gan: "Sister Cheng Gan, send a message to Staff Officer Chen."
"Tell him that the research team doesn't need to come; the matter here has been resolved."
"I will give you a detailed report when I get back."
"Yes!" Cheng Gan replied in a loud voice, and immediately turned to the communications room to contact headquarters.
The atmosphere on the deck relaxed slightly.
Just then, the old tree's voice rang in Zhou Jue's mind again.
"Xiao Jue, let's post some water."
"Okay!" Zhou Jue replied, and immediately instructed the system to guide water into the space along with him.
Endless seawater surged wildly into that parched basin! The water level began to rise rapidly!
One hundred meters!
500 meters!
One kilometer!
...
“Senior, I’m planning to go down there. Would you like to come with me?” Zhou Jue asked the old tree.
"Um?"
“I can’t just let its huge body float to the surface and then be brought back in, can I? That would be too terrifying,” Zhou Jue explained. “I’ll dive down and wait for it in the sea, and by the way…”
A slight smile played on her lips: "And while you're at it, add some furniture to its new home."
Old Tree instantly understood what she meant: "Hehe, you little girl are quite thoughtful, let's go, together."
Zhou Jue gave a brief instruction to the soldiers who remained on the deck, telling them to stay put and not to panic.
Then, he walked to the edge of the deck and, with a "plop," jumped into the icy seawater.
The moment she entered the seawater, the system's protective shield automatically extended, enveloping her entire body. This not only insulated her from the icy seawater and immense water pressure but also provided oxygen, allowing her to breathe freely underwater.
Zhou Jue began to descend, and the deeper he went, the more mysterious and magnificent it became.
Countless strange creatures, rarely seen on the sea, began to appear around her.
The glowing fish resembled a flowing galaxy.
A giant jellyfish, its dreamlike umbrella unfurled, drifted by leisurely.
There are also all sorts of strangely shaped corals and seaweeds swaying in the underwater currents.
This is the world of the deep sea.
"Brother Tongzi, pack up all the plants and animals you can collect, centered around me, and move them to the artificial sea in the space," Zhou Jue instructed in his mind.
[Host received. Initiating indiscriminate ecosystem migration...]
The next second, Zhou Jue saw that wherever he went, large areas of seaweed and coral reefs, along with the mud and sand at their roots, were all "shoveled" away!
Before the schools of deep-sea fish and shrimp could even react to what was happening, they found themselves in a completely different environment!
As Zhou Jue descended, he frantically made "zero-yuan purchases".
Wherever it goes, nothing grows... no, it's an ecological shift.
When she descended to a depth of about seven or eight hundred meters.
An immense aura surged up from the depths!
It's here! Zhou Jue stopped her descent and hovered in the water. Soon, a huge creature appeared in her field of vision.
Its body has a translucent texture, as if it were carved from crystal. You can even see tiny specks of starlight slowly flowing inside. Its shape is neither whale nor dragon, ancient, elegant, yet full of indescribable majesty.
This is the Listening Sea Beast.
The Listening Sea Beast also spotted Zhou Jue. Its upward momentum slowed significantly, and it cautiously swam around Zhou Jue once before bringing its massive head closer.
"Drywood, is everything ready?" its thoughts transmitted to him.
"Alright," the old tree's voice rang out. "And you? Have you brought all your belongings?"
"All of them are here!" The Sea Listener's voice carried a hint of pride.
Zhou Jue looked at it and suddenly asked curiously, "Senior, what do you like to eat? I'll catch some more for you later and keep it in your new home so you won't have to worry about food in the future."
To everyone's surprise, the Sea Beast's tone became even more smug, even a little boastful: "No need."
"I stored the food on my way home."
"Once we get to our new home, I'll just regurgitate it and raise it."
"Although they don't have much spiritual energy left, they're still enough to satisfy my cravings and indulge my taste buds."
Zhou Jue: "???"
Pack?
Spit it out?
What kind of operation is this?
"Ahem..." The old tree explained to her at the right time: "This little child's racial talent is that their bodies form a huge space that can store inanimate objects and also raise living things."
"Their favorite thing to do is to stuff all the delicious food and shiny treasures into their bodies."
"Just now, I was probably so angry that I thought I was going to die, so I didn't bother to pack my luggage."
Zhou Jue understood.
Goodness.
Isn't this just a mobile, portable warehouse combined with a live animal preservation cold storage?
This talent is amazing!
"Now that everything is ready, let's begin," Zhou Jue said.
"Okay!" The Listening Sea Beast was filled with anticipation and trepidation.
Zhou Jue looked at the enormous thing in front of him and took a deep breath.
"Senior, please relax and do not resist."
