After repeated attempts by Guan Liyuan, he finally got some information about the survival of the sea creatures in the Sea Emperor plane from the old conch man...
Why was it "repeated" attempts?
In short, when the other party noticed something was wrong, Guan Liyuan would use illusion to forcibly delete the memory of the previous sentence...
Anyway, this is just an ordinary small tribe in one of the Sea Emperor's planes, and no one should check whether their memory has been tampered with!
Because the Sea Emperor's territory has hundreds of planes, and the planes inside are naturally connected by plane channels to the greatest extent, even the patriarch of this small tribe knows about the situation in other "sea areas" - in their eyes, different planes are different sea areas.
At first, Guan Liyuan thought that "sea area" refers to a sub-area within a plane, until he understood the area of the sea area and that to go to different sea areas, he needed to pass through the "dimensional ocean current", Guan Liyuan was sure that the so-called "sea area" in the Sea Emperor's territory refers to different planes!
How many sea areas there are is beyond the knowledge of the old conch man. He has only heard the names of several sea areas around him...
On the whole, the sea tribe in the Sea Emperor's territory is not very civilized and still maintains the "tribe" as the basic level. Except for a few large cities that can be described as "prosperous", the way of survival of the sea tribe is still very simple.
And in the sea tribe civilization, "sea monsters" can be said to be an important part that must be mentioned!
Although there are practitioners in the sea tribe, because of the existence of sea monsters, contracting sea monsters is the guarantee of the survival of tribes and small towns!
It is much easier to reach a contract with a sea monster than to give birth to a sea warrior of the same level.
According to the classification of the sea tribe, the weakest creature that can be called a sea monster is also a "Kraken". The "Tearer" that Guan Liyuan saw before is the lowest level Kraken sea monster. The "Tear Spirit" of 70 to 80 meters contracted by the old conch man is still in the growth stage. The real adult Kraken is a huge existence of hundreds of meters or even hundreds of meters, and its strength is comparable to that of a "sea general".
At first, Guan Liyuan didn't understand what kind of unit of measurement "Sea General" was, until later he pried out the name of a more powerful sea monster from the old conch - Jörmungandr.
With a body of kilometers, the body can counter the "power of the small world"...
Guan Liyuan can understand this "scientific name". The power of the small world is the power of the "world realm" that gave birth to the small world!
In this way, the weaker Kraken level should be equivalent to high-level and super-level sea monsters, and the Jörmungandr level represents the world realm sea monster.
As for the stronger sea monster, it is listed as "Behemoth", with a body length of 10,000 meters, the real foundation of the country. How strong is it, the old conch doesn't know, but Guan Liyuan speculates... It should be the turn of the extraordinary existence!
In addition, the old conch has heard in legends that the strongest sea monster is called "Leviathan", but it only exists in other more powerful "seas".
What Guan Liyuan was even more concerned about was that when Guan Liyuan tried to ask if the more powerful sea monsters were also like the "Spirit of Tearing" and did not seem to have high intelligence... the old conch was very horrified and instantly saw through the fact that Guan Liyuan was "not a member of the sea clan".
Guan Liyuan had no choice but to clear his memory again and use illusion to guide him, and then he understood... It turned out
that just like the monsters in the Yasgu plane, the sea monsters in the ocean plane, no matter how strong they were, had no brains!
Even in the sea clan civilization, there is such a well-known "rumor" - sea monsters with intelligence are the symbol of the source of all disasters, meaning destruction and doomsday, and once discovered, they must be reported to the empire immediately.
Of course, as for how the empire will deal with it, it is not something the old conch can know!
They are both not very intelligent, and they grow bigger as they get stronger...
Guan Liyuan used his brain a little to figure out the reason for the similarities between sea monsters and alien beasts - the Yasgu plane was originally a fragment of the Holy Court Colosseum, and the Sea King was once one of the four generals of the Holy Court...
He has some training systems similar to the Colosseum, so it is normal for anyone to refer to whom!
And unlike the alien beasts in the Yasgu plane, which completely represent "chaos", although sea monsters have extremely low intelligence, they have the possibility of "contract" - they cannot understand communication in the general logical sense, but at least... they can form simple communication with them at other levels through certain rituals.
At least in the Yasgu plane, alien beasts are either completely tamed or attack humans for no reason, and they will not leave after offering two children... There is no such methodical behavior!
And stronger sea monsters also have more needs, not necessarily eating sea people, because of different species, they may also need some specific tributes.
Generally, only Kraken-level sea monsters in their growth stage need to be sacrificed alive by the sea tribe. Although adult sea monsters are huge in size, their food intake is actually very small unless they are in the promotion stage...
It's just that Krakens in their growth stage are the easiest to satisfy - they only need to offer living sacrifices regularly and after calling them.
Therefore, among the lower-level tribes, half of them have contracts with Krakens in their growth stage.
The other half are attached to large tribes or cities, regularly handing over large amounts of tributes, and also enjoying their protection - these large tribes and cities generally have adult Krakens or Jörmungandr!
To a certain extent, sea monsters are the "first productive force" among the sea tribes. If you can contract an adult Kraken, you have the capital to exploit the lower-level tribes...
At the same time, what Guan Liyuan is a little concerned about is the legend of "intelligent sea monsters" - and they also emphasize reporting to the empire... It doesn't sound like a simple rural "strange talk"!
After leaving the conch tribe, Guan Liyuan deliberately looked for sea monsters.
The old conch man told Guan Liyuan that Krakens, especially adults, usually live more in the deep sea. For example, when he called the Ripper before, he woke it up from the bottom of the sea.
Although the water pressure in the deep sea area of the ocean plane is high, it has a richer spiritual energy.
After Guan Liyuan set his sights on the sea monster, he specially dived into the deep sea waters...
Under the 360-degree, long-distance, and highly sensitive white eye vision, the dark seabed can't hide these huge guys!
It didn't take long for Guan Liyuan to find it. It was a colorful guy with a body like a mantis shrimp, but it was more than 300 meters long.
"Is this supposed to be... an adult Kraken-level sea monster? Sure enough, there is no sign of brain development... By the way, can we ask Shirahoshi to try?"
Guan Liyuan suddenly had an idea...
