Poseidon
This was one of the major events that Xu Shi and his group learned about after they came into contact with Silver Pine Island.
After all, they have now discovered that the people of Silver Pine Island, or rather, those who radiate throughout the entire Hualan Empire, all have faith in God. Just look at how Pan Cheng keeps talking about "the Lord God" – that's a small example of the bigger picture.
Including their understanding of "ascension ability," they called "rust mist" "divine breath," believing it to be a gift from some god. It can only be said that such ethereal things have long been deeply rooted in their hearts.
In this situation, anyone who can be associated with the word "god" is definitely not an ordinary person.
Even if this "sea god" is probably not a positive character... otherwise why would we want to fight against him? But to be given such a name is anything but simple.
"Look."
He pulled him to sit down on a rock, and Xie Qingyan took out a piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to him. "Your Xia Wuyou only listens to the story of the Sea God, but I have already had Shanshan and Yu Xingchuan make a profile of this guy based on their descriptions. This may be its general appearance?"
"It's not advisable to praise one while criticizing another."
Xu Shi defended his Xia Xiaomao, saying, "She's not as bad as you say..."
Then he took the drawing paper, looked at it, and came to the conclusion that...
"What is this drawing?"
It's not surprising that he has this problem; the so-called profiling is indeed somewhat abstract.
At first glance, it should look like an octopus? But upon closer inspection, it's not quite—it's more like the outline of an octopus, but it also has many things that don't belong to an octopus.
For example, the mouth of a swordfish, the fin of a shark, and even... the shell of a sea turtle?
It's so weird, what kind of indescribable Cthulhu Old God is this? It's just a Frankenstein's monster!
"You find it strange too, right? I felt the same way when I saw it."
Xie Qingyan smiled, "But considering what the islanders are saying, that's really the case."
Upon realizing this, Xu Shi remained noncommittal.
He hadn't listened carefully to the story of the sea god, but he roughly knew it. It was about an exceptionally powerful and terrifying being that lurked in the sea, and all the other creatures in the sea were its followers. Its giant mouth could devour everything with a single opening, and its tentacles were thick and powerful, leaving no passing ships unscathed.
That means...
"This so-called 'Sea God' might originally have just been some kind of creature from the ocean, but through some fortuitous event, it awakened supernatural abilities?"
She continued her analysis along these lines, "And this superpower is very likely..."
"Integration, right?"
Xu Shi continued his sentence.
Regardless of the actual situation, this appears to be the most likely scenario at present.
Because it can integrate the special abilities of other creatures, it grows into this form—the parts that do not belong to it are the most distinctive or powerful parts of other creatures.
"It sounds a bit fantastical."
Xie Qingyan couldn't help but sigh.
"But it's not impossible."
Xu Shi said slowly, "In short, we have now come to another world. Many things are difficult for us to understand, but that doesn't mean they don't exist."
For example, that giant shark with superpowers was a revelation for everyone in Night City.
Jiang Chengcheng has compiled all the materials used by the people of Silver Pine Island to build their ships over the past few days—the dense forests that can be seen everywhere on the island, called Silver Pine, which naturally have a certain resistance to "rust fog".
Although it can't compare to the composite material Jiang Chengcheng researched in terms of effectiveness, it's all-natural and can withstand corrosion at sea for nearly a month. With a few improvements, its effect might not be much worse, and it might even be able to drive down the price of ships...
The island has no protective force field, yet people are largely unaffected by the "rust fog," which is why the island's name is derived from this plant.
"Yes, you're right."
The woman didn't deny it at all, saying, "You'll only know if it's true or not after seeing it with your own eyes. If it's true, then it's even more valuable."
Because the ability of "fusion" is rare and powerful, how can it not be powerful if one can seize the abilities of others for one's own use? Although there is no precedent in the City of Night Sin, if they were to assign a level to it, it would have to start at least as S+, and SS would not be an exaggeration.
Perhaps God is a fabrication, but some things are real and will not change.
"Moreover, this ability is also of great research value."
Xie Qingyan continued, "Aren't we currently working on a dual-ability transplant project? If such a natural ability truly allows us to achieve this, could we use it to further improve existing technology?"
She suffers from seasickness, but she didn't stay idle during her time at sea. The specimens that Xia Ke'an recorded were usually sent directly to her so that these marine creatures could be studied further.
Especially after learning that they also possessed the ability to ascend to higher levels, she found an even more precise approach.
"You really are thinking about me, huh?"
Xu Shi, however, understood her subtext and couldn't help but chuckle.
"Come on, my goal is to make the transfer of superpowers smoother and simpler."
The dog-like woman glared at him and said, "As for you... you're just an accessory, don't try to make yourself look good."
This is Chairman Xie's usual arrogance, but he is also thinking about Xu Shi's affairs—who can blame him for being the only exception at the moment?
Not to mention that she was his attending physician, she wouldn't feel at ease until her problems were completely resolved.
"Anyway, I'm quite touched."
