The chaotic and distorted space slowly dispersed, revealing a dark passage behind it.
Gu Xi stood behind Ai Si, tilted her head slightly, and peered inside. "Where is this?"
"Squeak!" (I don't know, but I feel like there's a space here with something golden inside.)
"That golden thing is a gold coin..."
Ais tilted his head to look at her; clearly, he didn't understand what gold coins were.
Gu Xi didn't offer any further explanation, strode ahead, and entered the passage. Ai Si followed closely behind.
The passage was pitch black; visually speaking, you couldn't see your hand in front of your face. Gu Xi tried to use the Shark Pearl to light it up, but unfortunately, the environment here was unique; all light sources were absorbed by the darkness.
Therefore, one could only rely on mental energy to move around within it. As a result, Gu Xi's already limited mental energy was further depleted.
The two continued walking down, and in the deathly silent space, only the sound of their footsteps could be heard.
Although Gu Xi liked quiet, she didn't like deathly silence. So she started a conversation about the fish she could communicate with.
"You look a lot like a deep-sea creature."
This topic immediately put a sense of unease on Ais. "Squeak~" (I'm not like that, the Deep Sea Clan only treats sea beasts as pets...)
Gu Xi was also surprised by this. She didn't understand why sea monsters, which are quite powerful, would be reduced to being pets.
Have you ever encountered deep-sea creatures that wanted to capture you?
"Squeak~" (Yes, but I'm very clever, they can't catch me.)
While he is indeed very capable, it's a bit narcissistic for a fish to claim that he is capable.
"I have many sea creatures on my ship, but they are all very big. Why are you so small?"
This is actually the question she most wanted to ask.
"Squeak!" (My main body is quite large, but it's too big and inconvenient. It would be better if I became smaller.)
!
Upon hearing this, Gu Xi's eyes lit up. So this fish can actually change size! She thought only octopuses could do that.
So she generously introduced the octopus in her home to Aisi.
"Squeak!" (Growing bigger or smaller? That's a skill of octopus-like sea monsters. I can change size not because of a skill, but because I'm powerful enough to control it.)
"Wait! You said you can control it? That means your physical body and you are now the same?"
This is earth-shattering news! If it's true, his true form is probably even larger than a giant!
She's going to be disillusioned, really.
I was so happy to meet the humanoid fish just now, but now I'm just as devastated.
Forgive her, she wasn't ready to see such a horrifying story.
"Squeak!" (Yes, my main body is very large.)
Suddenly, Gu Xi felt a headache coming on. After all, she had never imagined a fish with arms and legs—how could it survive in the sea?!
If she had known this would happen, she would have been better off not asking.
Common sense was shattered once again, causing the somewhat frustrated Gu Xi to not even notice the pile of gold coins in front of her.
She didn't stop until Ais called her back.
"Squeak!" (This is it; I sensed something golden here just now.)
Although it was dark, Gu Xi sensed a pile of gold coins in front of her using her mental power. She immediately cast aside her shattered illusions and rushed towards the coins. (This chapter has been read. Please click to continue reading the next chapter!)
