Only some potholed dirt roads remained, but after the renovation by the [Modo Holy Church], some thatched huts and low tiled houses were restored and scattered haphazardly in this port city.
night.
In front of the port guard post.
Two dark-skinned guards, each holding a spear.
One of them, with slightly curly hair, looked at the seemingly calm sea and couldn't help but doze off: "I'm so sleepy... I'm going to sleep for a while. You keep an eye on things for me and call me if anything happens."
"Still dare to sleep? Have you forgotten what Lord Modo said?"
His companion frowned and said, "A few days ago, that octopus patrol attacked the outpost and stole a metal ring that Master Avaro had forged, which enraged Lord Modo on the spot... He killed the guards at the outpost, and you still dare to sleep?"
Curly said nonchalantly, "But that was a few days ago. Even if we were to raid outposts, how could it be this frequent? Nothing's wrong at all... I'm going to sleep now. Just call me if anything happens. Nothing will go wrong."
"All right."
His companions didn't say anything either.
Curly quickly fell asleep, and soon snoring could be heard.

The sea surface continued to churn.
One by one, dark red octopuses suddenly leaped out.
Behind them followed a group of humans, who strolled over at a leisurely pace.
With a loud bang!
Carlos, the leader, suddenly lashed out a long tentacle from dozens of meters away, strangling one of the guards by the neck. With a snap, he easily broke the neck.
"Someone's attacking?!"
Curly was about to blow the whistle to warn them.
But in an instant, his neck was gripped by tentacles, his face turned red, and he felt a suffocating sensation. Looking at the unfamiliar Asian faces of the men in trench coats behind him, he could only manage to utter fearful and hoarse sounds.
"Who...are you people?"
"Our Holy Church of Modo seems to have no enmity with you, so why are you joining forces with these octopuses to attack us?"
