Captain Mantis Shrimp's fatal punch failed to kill, and he was slapped to the ground by a human adventurer whom he did not take seriously at all. He was in disbelief and doubted his life.
He turned around and looked angrily at the human who slapped him to the ground, wanting to use his mantis shrimp eyes to give the human a heartbreaking glare and increase his psychological pressure.
However, when the strange-colored eyes of the Mantis Shrimp Captain met those of Lin Yuan, the whole shrimp was stunned.
His body was stiff, and he couldn't help but want to curl up and shrink himself into a shrimp ball. What kind of eyes are these!
To look into those eyes was like staring into an abyss.
The weird captain of the Pipi Shrimp: "..."
Not only is the way of punching wrong, even the way of opening the eyes is probably not right.
After failing to win in a fist fight and getting hit by glaring, the weird captain of the mantis shrimp was finally reluctantly invited to the conch where Wu Xiangwang and his companions lived.
But before that, when Pi Da learned that the two humans who had invited him were also going to invite the giant shark, the Pi Pi Shrimp Weird Captain's expression changed slightly: "Why are you still going to find the giant shark? Isn't it enough to invite me, a big weirdo?"
Wu Xiangwang looked at Pi Da and smiled: "Since you want to treat us to tea, of course we should treat them together. It would be too much trouble to pay for each one individually. Let's have a tea party."
"After all, this involves ocean gems and some potentially important information, so it's always better to be safe."
The weird captain of the Mantis shrimp stopped talking. He looked at the two humans with deep eyes, and his ferocious mouth with long whiskers curved upwards.
"As expected of a wanted poster, I'm a little more sympathetic to you now."
They are a strange sea creature and are very tolerant of the strong.
In fact, all the weirdness is also true for the strong.
Since this human has already noticed something, let him go and look for it. After all, there are some things that this human can do but they, as the guardians of the Ocean City, cannot do.
Then Captain Pi Daweiyi took the initiative to lead Wu Xiang and Lin Yuan to find the giant shark Weiyi who was hunting in the ocean hunting ground. Of course, the giant shark Weiyi was unwilling to follow these two inexplicable humans directly, but when he was knocked over several times by Wu Xiangwang's punch, he twitched his mouth and looked at the shrimp Weiyi with shining eyes next to him.
Could this human be a relative of your unfortunate shrimp?! The power of his punch wasn't much different from that of the mantis shrimp.
Pipi Shrimp understood the strange look in the giant shark's eyes and grinned. "If he were a cute and beautiful monster, I would really like to take him as my brother. Unfortunately, he is a human."
People of different races cannot be recognized as relatives.
Wu Xiangwang curled his lips slightly. Really not. He didn't think it was a good thing to have a weird mantis shrimp as a brother. After all, he would have to return to Earth eventually. If he had a mantis shrimp as a brother, how would he face all the delicious mantis shrimp when he returned to Earth?!
He was unwilling to give up any of the three choices: salt and pepper, pickled raw, or stir-fried in a typhoon shelter.
However, the giant shark Guiyi finally followed Wu Xiangwang and the others. These two humans had the strength to fight against him and Pi Da, so no matter what they did, at least they would not easily become a dead fish.
There are some things they have been thinking about for a long time, and it’s time to make some progress.
So the tea party began.
When Pi Da and Jusha saw the cursing Red Heart Octopus, Double Claw Crab and Bald Tail Oarfish tied up in the house, their guesses became more accurate and they were more certain about what these humans had discovered.
The three sea creatures who were originally cursing stopped cursing abruptly when they saw that the mantis shrimp and the giant shark were both caught.
Their expressions instantly turned to shock. "Oh my god, Old Man and Giant Shark! Were you two captured as well?! When did these humans become so arrogant and powerful?!"
Captain Weird Mantis Shrimp and Captain Weird Shark rolled their eyes at the crab who was asking the question at the same time: "Shut up."
"Look, it's the five of us who were invited here. Don't you know what's going on?!"
The big crab with two claws looked left and right, then quickly let out a cry and closed its mouth.
"Well, since you've invited us here, let's just say whatever we want to say and don't waste time."
Wu Xiangwang smiled and nodded: "Then I will ask directly, do you have any suspicions about who stole the ocean gem?"
The five weirdos in the room all twitched their lips at once. This was a very direct question.
However, they had no intention of hiding it. This human had actually asked them a question. They looked at each other and then spoke directly.
"About a month and a half ago, the leader received an invitation from the royal capital to attend a banquet." The one who spoke was the weird captain of the Pipi Shrimp. He was a straightforward person and didn't bother to hide anything.
"The leader attends banquets in the capital quite often, at least three or four times a year. After all, the treacherous and cunning Prince of Wisdom is actually not as strong as our leader in terms of combat power. If he wants to rule the ten major cities, he must have the support of our leader and the Lord of the Sky in Sky City."
"So we didn't pay much attention to the banquet in the capital a month and a half ago. But after the boss came back, his expression became very serious. He kept frowning, looking worried. He even ate several tons less fish than before. We knew that the leader must be worried about something difficult."
"The two-clawed crab and the red-hearted octopus are both cooks who cook and hunt for the boss, the bald-tailed oarfish is the boss's mount, and the giant shark is the leader's bodyguard, so we are all very clear about the boss's changes."
"It's not uncommon for the boss to be worried, but it's not uncommon either. We didn't take it seriously at first. But after a dozen days, his expression grew increasingly grim, and along with Big Sister and the three Battle Kings, they all started behaving strangely. I started to think things might be dire."
"Just when I was looking for the giant shark to ask the boss what happened, the ocean gem was lost a month ago."
"When the golden dragon gradually lost its luster and turned bluish-black, no one reacted."
"I just subconsciously felt as if the whole sky had darkened a little, until a little weirdo pointed above my head and shouted: The dragon is not shining anymore."
Mantis shrimp's eyes suddenly darkened when he said this strangely: "It's not that the dragon doesn't shine, but the ocean gem is gone."
"So we immediately sealed off the entire city, digging deep underground, searching every house and every place, but we found nothing."
"Heart Octopus relied on his innate ability, risking being repelled, to sense the remaining energy around the dragon, but he sensed nothing. Just like you couldn't find any clues on the dragon."
"We searched for a month and found nothing."
"This is a huge disgrace."
At this time, the octopus with the red heart pattern on its tentacle rubbed its claws and said with a pout, "What's so shameful about this? At first, we didn't react and couldn't figure it out, but later we figured it out, right?"
"Nothing strange can escape my Red Heart Perception, except Madam."
"No one can steal the Ocean Gem without a sound, except the boss who already owns the Ocean Gem."
"In my opinion, there's no need to be so nervous. The boss and the big sister must have their own ideas and need to use the ocean gem temporarily. They will return the ocean gem after a period of time."
The Heart Octopus twisted its pink tentacles again. "You're the only ones who's worried enough to search the entire city for this thing and even send it out as a quest."
The giant shark immediately looked over with its sharp triangular eyes and said, "If you can contact the boss and find out where they are, I will withdraw the mission. If you can't contact him, use your tentacles to stuff your mouth and don't say a word! Otherwise, I will eat you directly."
The Red Heart Octopus stuffed its tentacle into its mouth without saying a word.
"We only came up with this guess after a long and thorough search. Ever since the Ocean Gem was lost, the City Lord and his wife haven't left the City Lord's Mansion. The Shark Eagle, Killer Whale, and Seaweed are also missing. Even though their followers said they were going into seclusion to advance, the truth is they haven't appeared in a month."
The strange captain of the Mantis Shrimp said in a deep voice at this time: "We can't be sure of anything else, but the fact that the five of them... disappeared along with the Ocean Gems is something we can basically be sure of."
Then Pi Da raised his eyes and looked at Wu Xiangwang: "This is what we know and guess. I have told you. The rest is for you to find out on your own."
"Don't ask us if we know where the leader and his wife are. We don't know either. The only answer we can give you is that they are in the City Lord's Mansion."
"We've turned the entire Ocean Knowledge City upside down. It's up to you to figure out where to find the lost gems and... "
What Pi Dayin took away were obviously the lost gems, the disappeared city lord, the city lord's wife and the three sea fighting kings.
Wu Xiangwang nodded, then he looked at Pipixia strangely: "Do you have a map of Ocean City and the nearby underwater area? We would like to see it."
The Ocean City has been thoroughly searched by Captain Mantis Shrimp and his guard team. There is a 90% chance that the lost ocean gem is not in the Ocean City.
They have to look outside the city.
The mantis shrimp looked at the giant shark strangely. The giant shark roared and threw out a crystal stone.
Then, a large map of the ocean city and its surrounding environment, manifested by energy, appeared in the sea in front of them.
Only then did Wu Xiangwang and the others get a direct view of the location of the Ocean City.
Looking at it this way, Wu Xiangwang suddenly discovered that the Ocean City was actually built at the pass of a huge underwater mountain?
Even the hundreds of meters long underwater tomb forest is on the edge of this huge sunken mountain pass.
With the Ocean City as the center, to the right is the underwater forest cemetery, to the left is a hill of minerals marked with high radiation dangerous energy, in front is a huge underwater lake, and behind is a deep bottomless black hole.
All these areas are actually located at the pass of a huge underwater mountain with no visible end.
Wu Xiangwang took a deep breath: "..."
This is fucking shit.
This location is absolutely perfect.
