Chapter 189



Gou Fugui followed the orca and traveled straight towards the western Indian Ocean for three days.

In order to make the journey faster over the next three days, Fugui Yuanyuan took out his stored food and shared it with his little orca brother, which reduced the time his little orca brother had to dive into the sea to find food.

Therefore, the orca younger brother, who previously took six days to reach their ocean destination, only took three days to reach it thanks to the feeding of their older brother, Fugui.

When the orca under him finally stopped moving forward and started circling in place on the surface of the sea, Gou Fugui knew that this was the place the orca wanted to take him to.

However, as he sat on the back of the orca and looked around, he did not see anything special about the ocean.

All around here is the monotonous, deep blue sea that can become dull and monotonous after a while. There are no islands or reefs visible on the surface. If it weren't for the orca bringing us here, no human passing by would have given this place a second glance.

But since the orca stopped, it means there must be something special about this place.

If there are no abnormalities on the surface of the sea, then the abnormality must lie in the seawater.

Thinking of this, Gou Fugui pondered for a moment, squeezed his wrist, and then completely transformed into a giant orca, even larger than the half-grown orca he was riding.

The little orca was incredibly excited to see its boss look like an orca. It not only jumped around and spun in the water next to the boss, but also tried to rub its big head against the boss and whimper.

However, in the end, the impatient whale swatted it aside with its fin.

"Waaaaah!"

"Shut up, you whining sister! Waaah!"

Jinggui twitched the corner of his mouth and began to dive into the seawater below.

When Gou Fugui transformed into the orca Fugui, he knew that orcas could dive to a depth of about 200 to 300 meters, and that the dive would last for about 5 to 20 minutes.

However, due to the gradual improvement in his physical attributes from saving several worlds and the increasing bloodline physique bonus as he unlocks more animals, his orca is now probably the king of whales and can easily dive to a depth of over 500 meters and hold its breath for an hour.

Therefore, the orca Fugui dives down very quickly and easily.

His orca brother naturally followed him down the dive. He originally thought that since this little brother was not yet fully grown, he probably couldn't keep up with his speed and diving depth, so he was prepared to communicate with him using ultrasound and let him stay in the shallow water. However, after being frozen for more than ten hours and still alive, the life-or-death crisis stimulated its physical potential. This little orca brother actually followed him down the dive for more than twenty minutes, to a depth of nearly 350 meters, without showing any sign of falling behind.

Indeed, all evolution is for survival.

When the orca Fugui led his orca brother down to a depth of 300 meters, he finally sensed something unusual.

Although Fugui, the orca he transformed into, was relatively more tolerant of the icy seawater caused by the cold current due to his enhanced physique, he still couldn't help but shiver a few times when his skin was surrounded by seawater. He only felt less cold after swimming around in the seawater a few times and starting to dive.

However, at some point, the seawater around him began to warm up.

At first, he thought it was because the seawater around the livestock was almost at a constant temperature and unaffected by the cold air at the surface that made him feel warmer as he went deeper. But now, the seawater surrounding him could no longer be described as "warm."

That wasn't his imagination; he actually felt that the seawater temperature seemed to have become a little...hot?

Seawater, scalding?

The orca, Fugui, abruptly stopped its descent, and because the braking was so sudden, it even spun around in place.

The orca following behind him noticed its leader had finally stopped, and began wagging its tail and emitting ultrasonic waves in the water, meaning:

[Waaaaah, I need to eat! I can find lots of food here!]

The area more than 300 meters deep in the ocean is completely dark, with no sunlight able to penetrate the deep sea.

But marine life doesn't need sunlight; it can "see" everything by relying on the flow of water and its own unique methods of exploration and perception.

The same applies to the wealth and status of orcas.

He didn't try to search the darkness with his eyes; he simply paused for a moment, and then ultrasonic waves, inaudible to humans, spread out from him, quickly covering the entire underwater area.

When using ultrasound, the orca Fugui kept his eyes closed. However, when he "saw" the true appearance of the deep sea with ultrasound, he was still shocked by what he "saw" and suddenly opened his eyes wide.

In the pitch-black depths of the Indian Ocean, 300 meters below the surface, there exists life as vibrant as that found in the shallower waters.

Fish that disappeared in the shallow sea area due to the sudden drop in temperature gather here, and seaweed plants that died in the shallow sea area grow nearby.

Suddenly, the water around them rippled, and the orca, Fugui, acted on instinct and bit down.

It was a big fish, and although it was a bit slippery, once its prey was in its mouth, there was no chance of it escaping!

There's still room even if your mouth can't react in time!

The giant sea leopard was directly put into the spatial pocket of the orca Fugui.

Then Orca Fugui understood exactly how his orca brother had caught the fish—

In this warm, thriving land unaffected by the icy sea, fish and shrimp gather everywhere to survive; how could one not catch fish?

only……

Suddenly, the orca Fugui turned around and used its large tail to fling away a humpback whale that was trying to ambush it. Then, it led its orca underling, who had already caught another fish, to the surface of the sea.

This warm ocean is abundant with food, but also fraught with danger.

Splash!

Two enormous orcas surfaced, and the younger orca was eager to offer the big fish it was holding in its mouth to its leader.

Orca Fugui still refused.

"You just stay here and float around in this sea, don't wander off, cough, I need to go down there and take a look, sob sob."

He recalled some information he had researched when he was learning to scuba dive, and he roughly understood why the deep sea in this area became warm.

However, he still needs to investigate and see if it is as he suspects.

If his guess is correct...

So perhaps he has found the key to solving this apocalypse.

Although the little orca didn't understand why its boss had to go down again, as a smart, lucky, and obedient little brother, it very sensibly nodded its big head, swam around on the surface of the sea, and then lay slightly back to expose its head and began to look up at the sky.

After giving instructions, the orca Fugui reverted to human form. After consuming some high-calorie food on the surface of the sea, he slapped his left wrist again, and his long, black ponytail transformed into a dazzling, seven-colored ponytail.

He twisted his wrist, clenched his fist, and punched forward, sending a jet of water soaring into the sea.

Orca Brother: Waaaaaah? ? ?

Why does the boss suddenly smell a bit delicious? And how did it create that water jet? It wants to play too!!

Unfortunately, the colorful mantis shrimp Fugui had no time to pay attention to the half-grown killer whale at this moment. Seeing it having a great time splashing on the surface of the water, Fugui simply dove into the seawater and swam directly to deeper waters, where it could breathe without needing to snorkel.

Transforming directly into a mantis shrimp is dangerous in this sea area, since even if an individual is strong, its size is still a factor.

With his human form and the added advantages of mantis shrimp bloodline and innate skills, even though many clueless octopuses, sharks, humpback whales, and ferocious schools of fish attacked him on his way down, he basically knocked them down with a single punch or a set of punches, turning them into his food supply.

When the Seven-Colored Fortune submerged to a depth of 500 meters, the seawater temperature had already risen to 22℃.

As he continued to descend, reaching a depth of one thousand meters, he felt the intense pressure of the seawater pressing in from all directions and saw the red number on his wristwatch displaying 28°C.

At this point, continuing downwards was becoming increasingly difficult for him to bear.

But we are far from reaching our limit.

He reached out and patted his face, which was starting to turn red from the heat, rested for a moment, and then continued downwards.

He figured it was a life-or-death experience, and he was determined to go to the bottom of the sea to find out what was going on.

Forty minutes later, Qicai Fugui finally stepped onto a relatively firm rocky ground.

He immediately checked his watch and found that he had already descended to a depth of 1,680 meters.

At this time, the temperature of the seawater around him also reached 40℃, which is equivalent to the temperature of a hot spring.

This was the highest temperature Gou Fugui had ever experienced since he came into this world.

Being surrounded by warm, even slightly hot, seawater that made him dizzy from beginning to end, inexplicably reminded Gou Fugui of that world under the scorching sun.

He can't go any further, or he'll probably really be "cooked" inside and out.

Fortunately, this seems to be the bottom of this sea area.

The rainbow mantis shrimp cannot emit ultrasonic waves, but it possesses a "fourth vision" that surpasses all other creatures on Earth.

Color, light, ultraviolet light, and infrared light are all visible to it. Therefore, when its innate skill is activated, the pitch-black underwater world appears completely different in the eyes of the Seven-Colored Rich and Noble.

Against a black background, flickering red lights and gray mud drifted across the deep sea.

The strong smell of sulfur in the seawater was emanating from the flickering red light.

If you look closely through the murky mud floating in the sea, you'll see that patch of red.

You will then be able to witness the wonders and marvels of nature.

In the murky, dark depths of the sea, there was a mountain.

A mountain that is billowing thick smoke, with flickering cracks, and spewing out crimson magma!

The moment the magma was ejected, it reacted violently with the surrounding seawater, and hot mud and smoke enveloped the entire seabed around the mountain.

From where he stood, the massive underwater volcano looked like a giant sea monster lurking in the deep sea, ready to roar and erupt at any moment!

He was standing at another high point of this underwater volcano. However, the mountain beneath his feet did not have the abyssal fissures spewing lava, while the volcano not far in front of him was constantly erupting.

This underwater volcano is the reason for the rising ocean temperatures in this area.

Even from where Gou Fugui stands, he can see extremely heat-resistant shrimp, crabs, and shellfish roaming and living near the crater of the underwater volcano.

Only when you see the true face of the seabed can you truly feel the tenacity of life and the insignificance of humankind.

Rumble.

Another dull, faint vibration emanated from the underwater volcano.

Gou Fugui even felt the vibrations of the seabed rocks beneath his feet.

He pursed his thin lips slightly, his mind a jumble of thoughts—

Is this underwater volcano at the heart of the world?

If so, how would he fix it?

Should we risk being roasted alive and go up to fight to the death to retrieve it?

When the thought of "reclaiming the core" appeared in my mind, it began to grow uncontrollably.

Actually, taking back the core of the world would be the simplest and safest course of action, right?

The survivors in the equatorial region are now in dire straits, lacking both food and heating energy.

Every day, people die in their sleep from hunger and cold, never to wake up again.

He had absolutely no way of finding a way to repair the core of the world, even though he felt that this underwater volcano must be related to the core of the world and the apocalypse. But how could he repair it?

If he were to reclaim the core of the world at this moment, although life in this world would return to chaos, and perhaps new life would not be born for several days or tens of thousands of years, at least the doomsday gate of this world would not collapse, and the disaster here would not be able to spread to his world.

This is the last Doomsday Gate in Washington State.

Perhaps by the time they leave, their world will have returned to peace.

His sister can finally stop worrying about his every journey, and their country's soldiers, researchers, doctors... every one of the heroes who went against the tide in this disaster can finally rest.

If they fail to repair the core of this last and largest doomsday gate in Huazhou, and since the core is very likely this underwater volcano, he will be unable to come down and reclaim it at the last moment...

When it collapses, all the efforts of him, Xie Tianlang, and everyone else who entered the Gate of Doom will be in vain.

His own world will also face immeasurable disaster due to the collapse of this largest doomsday gate located in the Qinghai-Tibet snow mountain.

The long-haired young man stood quietly on the edge of the cliff at the bottom of the sea.

In the darkness, his eyes, gleaming with faint light, swirled with complex and intense emotions.

It's unclear how much time passed—perhaps a long time or perhaps just a moment—but the long-haired youth slowly lifted his foot and stepped forward.

Then, he suddenly heard the waves of life and calls coming down from the sea above him, layer by layer.

"..."

The long-haired youth withdrew his foot.

They stood once again on the cliffs at the bottom of the sea.

Then, he took a deep look at the giant object in the sea, turned around, and floated to the surface.

As the finish line approaches, all joys and sorrows are magnified.

But if it were just for an ending, he wouldn't have come this far.

What he wanted was never just an "end".

In every life-or-death situation, he fought for a life without regrets and for a complete fulfillment.

The world is beautiful, and life is precious.

I never distinguish between this place and my hometown.

My beloved place is my hometown.
