This was the first time a race had asked the sea ghost such a question, and for a moment, the question left the sea ghost somewhat at a loss.
However, for the sea ghost clan, customer requests must be met to the best of their ability, so even though it was a little flustered, it quickly calmed down and started thinking about the problem with its little brain.
One minute later
It's still thinking.
Two minutes later
It's still thinking.
Gu Xi, who was standing to the side, hadn't expected that a single question would stump Hai Youling so completely. So, with no other option, she could only offer Hai Youling more specific and targeted qualifiers.
Gu Xi: "Hmm, for example, what were your thoughts when you first met humans? How were you different from your deep-sea race?"
Sure enough, with Gu Xi's hint, the Sea Ghost immediately opened up the non-existent Ren and Du meridians. But it found the second question even stranger.
Sea Ghost: "What are you thinking? Why bring up the difference between humans and the Deep Sea Clan? Aren't humans a Deep Sea race?"
? ? ?
Three huge questions were hanging over Gu Xi's head. She was genuinely confused now: why would the Sea Ghost think humans were a deep-sea race?!
The sea ghost seemed to see her confusion and continued, "Aren't you a newly emerged deep-sea human race?! But perhaps there were some flaws in your formation, which is why so many of you were captured."
Gu Xi frowned, repeating the key word she had just heard. "Flaw??"
Now that the breakthrough had been found, Sea Ghost's subsequent answers flowed smoothly.
Sea Ghost: "Yes, you have weak innate mental strength and physical constitution, and you can't go into the sea. Your only advantage is that you're lucky. I heard from the humans we captured that your race can retrieve boxes from the sea and has a special system..."
If Gu Xi had anything in her hand at this moment, it would probably have fallen to the ground. Although the sea ghost's words were strange, they contained a lot of information.
She had long known that the deep-sea race was diverse, with both enemies and friends, and that being captured by an enemy race was something she had no choice but to accept.
But what did it just say? That it was lucky? That it was able to retrieve the box? Does that mean the deep-sea creatures can see the box but can't retrieve it?
Gu Xi: "Humans are like this, do you still think humans are deep-sea creatures?"
Gu Xi's question left Hai Youling speechless once again.
Sea Ghost: "What do you mean? Aren't many races similar in appearance? Communication isn't a problem either. The only serious issue is that you can't go into the water. Speaking of which, you humans are quite pitiful."
Gu Xi was speechless. Not to mention the deep-sea race, even the sea beast in her house looked very similar to a human. Based on appearance alone, it was impossible to say that humans were not deep-sea race.
Moreover, she completely understood why the sea ghost said humans were pitiful.
In its eyes, the world is entirely ocean, and humans, as deep-sea creatures, are cursed for not being able to survive in water. Just as humans need oxygen masks to breathe, they cannot survive without them. This is probably how this sea ghost views humans.
The other person's logic was sound, and she was powerless to refute it. After all, from the perspective of deep-sea creatures, the emergence of new species is not surprising. They are all viewing humans from their own cognitive perspective.
However, this view is good news for humanity.
Although it is strange for humans to be given the title of "deep-sea human race," it must be said that these deep-sea races indirectly acknowledge that humans exist in this world.
Gu Xi took a sip of her drink, feeling refreshed, and then changed the subject. "By the way, is my booked space customization service ready yet?"
