Volume 11: The Cursed Hammer Witch Chapter 33: Ocean Saint
As an ocean that occupies 70% of the planet's surface area, the world it contains is three-dimensional and fluid.
What humans and elves are fighting for is the right to live on the surface, and if the underground people want more living space, they need to spend a lot of manpower and material resources to dig. But the ocean has no such restrictions, and creatures can swim freely in the water, dive to various depths of sleep, and find a home that suits them.
Likewise, the oceans on this planet are not pure. In the southern seas at depths of 200 to 1,400 meters, there is a kingdom built by fishmen who evolved from fish. They have a nomadic style, herding fish, and using water currents and natural phenomena to simulate foreign enemies or complete their own systems. Strictly speaking, it cannot be considered a civilization, but only the predecessor of civilization.
However, another branch of this group of fish herders built a cluster structure created by resurrecting large fish not far from the ocean current. These fish herders pioneered the use of magic to capture some particularly large marine creatures, then destroyed their minds, and artificially created a fish city floating in the ocean current with other equally large creatures. Through the ecosystem, these large marine creatures that have lost their minds are driven to devour fish, plankton, and even minerals, and then undergo deep transformation and processing in their bodies, forming a complete biological ecosystem.
However, this group of fish people do not like to hunt too much around everything, but just quietly maintain their own civilization in the ocean currents. Although the population and the number of fish cities are constantly increasing, resulting in the increasing ecological pressure of the ocean currents, and artificial breeding of fish and plankton is required to solve the ecological problems, but generally speaking, there is no big problem. These fish people still live normally in the ocean currents. However, the problem is that these fish people can realize that something incredible is happening above their heads. The place where those pale flames fell was not just the ground, but some things directly smashed into the unfathomable ocean. This unprecedented spectacle made these ancient creatures a little panicked.
And these fishmen are not the only marine creatures that are in a panic.
Two thousand five hundred meters below the fish herders' civilization, on the offshore seabed, there is a civilization created by parasitic creatures similar to crabs. They use the special environment and structure of the deep sea to simulate high-pressure water jets, cutting and processing the metal flow of the submarine volcanoes to make the equipment they need. These crabs have built a sponge three-dimensional city in the ocean that is hundreds of meters deep and has an incalculable range. They use water flow and electricity to drive and forge around it. These giant crabs, like their distant relatives the fishmen, are aware that some kind of drastic changes have occurred on this planet.
The sea observation stations of these crabs also observed the strange phenomenon in the sky. It should be a dark night now, but now it is as bright as day. Countless stars continue to fall from the sky, leaving pale tracks and bombarding the ground. Some of those stars disintegrated and shattered in mid-air, scattering a series of crystals in the air, and then connected together under some mysterious power, floating in mid-air. Others smashed fiercely on the ground, blowing up countless waves of soil, and then gradually revealing the machinery and some special buildings wrapped inside. These buildings and crystals seem to constitute a complete system, and some mechanical puppets or aircraft fell from the sky with them, looking down from the sky and turning everything on the ground into a sea of fire.
But no matter what, this is not good news for the crabs. Everything is enough to prove that those aliens, the tissues spurting out from the pale wounds, are definitely not good people. Humans and elves have no desire for the ocean, but seeing those pale monsters seem to cover everything, even the cold-blooded crabs and fish people feel a certain degree of fear.
They are not afraid of countries on land. On the one hand, it is a matter of war potential. In the ocean, these deep-sea creatures are the real home turf, so there is no need to worry about fighting. Moreover, land creatures have no demand for the ocean itself, so they can rest easy. Even if they have a demand, they just want the supplies from the shallow sea. Going into the deep sea is laborious and wastes resources, so why bother? Moreover, land creatures themselves are not suitable for living in the ocean. Their innate structure is not suitable for the ocean. After all, there is no common sense on the road in the deep ocean. It is a completely different world.
However, these glittering golden things did not seem so friendly. In the horrified eyes of the crabs and the fishmen, the sky and the ground gradually closed together as if they were glued together by something, and more and more golden light was projected from the sky, making people tremble in their hearts. For this kind of monster, the marine creatures really had no confidence.
Even the most optimistic fishman looked worried, and kept talking about topics related to the sky with other friends or officials.
The orderly crabs were even more furious and ran outside the sacrifice area to sharpen their claws.
"What the hell are those things out there !"
These red crabs kept rubbing their claws together, making bursts of ear-piercing whistling sounds.
"We need an explanation! Those monsters outside are constantly falling into the ocean. We need an answer to what happened!"
"Don't make any noise! Don't make any noise!"
The crab priests with patterns engraved on their bodies were struggling to maintain order, and then the crabs suddenly became quiet.
The priests realized something and immediately turned around to see a figure who was of a very high status in the ocean. Facing this saint, the priests bowed their heads to show their highest respect.
The originally noisy scene was immediately stopped by the sound of the voice stuck in the throat. Facing the respectful appearance of these crabs, the black figure in the fluttering clothes like seaweed seemed to be observing the meteorites outside that were shining with golden light and falling into the ocean. The dry voice quickly reached the hearts of all the crabs.
"Those are the Ancients... the bloodless and tearless monsters that fell from the sky, and they were once the masters of this world."
"Your Excellency the Saint!"
Looking at the huge shadow, the crabs waved their claws and shook their tentacles to express their awe and admiration.
