The sea water is very cold, with a chill to the bone.
After entering the sea, Lorraine Hill felt this way.
This is a lonely sea far away from the mortal world, with no light or heat, only the faint sound of waves sweeping by the sea.
The ocean surrounding the northern continent does not have a unified name. The place where Lorraine Hill is currently located is probably part of the Endless Sea. Because it is in the polar night, only a little light can be seen at the end of the sky here, but the fish-belly-like
The light never shines through.
The transparent shield was in the shape of a sphere, wrapping the girl and another witch beside her, and slowly descended to the sea. The lower part was slightly buried in the sea water, while waves rolled over the part around the feet from time to time, beating on the shield.
Covered, then separated again, sprinkled with some water drops.
"This is it." Tehua's voice came from Loranthil's ear.
Viewed from a high altitude, the two of them stood in this vast and deep sea, as if they were on an extremely wide dark canvas, with undulating waves and cold winds. However, the two of them were so small that they seemed to be submerged at any time.
"According to previous exploration and records, this should be the end point of the ocean current, but now it is very cold and lonely, not warm at all." Lorraine Hill recalled some information summarized some time ago.
After extensive investigation and data collection, she was finally able to obtain some conclusions from data simulation and modeling.
This cold disaster is most likely related to the disappearance of ocean currents.
"Should we go down and take a look?" Tehua asked Lorraine Hill beside him.
"Well, I want to go down." That's what he said, but Lorraine Hill was a little worried and afraid of such an extremely deep sea.
The sea snake she met before was because it had some connections and didn't want to harm her, so she was able to leave safely. If she encounters the same ninth-order ancient sea beast this time, even if she is a witch, she will find it difficult to deal with it.
Under the sea, not in the sky, her power will be greatly restricted, while the sea beasts will be greatly enhanced by the geographical advantages.
It would be great if Vimiya was here. She, the sea witch, is very good at dealing with such scenes.
It's a pity that the situation in the empire is not stable now. She needs to be there to support him and cannot leave at will.
Let's try it with Tehua by ourselves first. If it's really difficult to deal with it, we can ask Vimiya to help us. This is what Lorraine Hill finally decided.
"let's go."
After saying that, the two witches held hands and jumped into the deep sea together.
The water spray and bubbles overflowed and flowed around the shield, making a gurgling sound, but it soon became quiet again.
The underwater world seems to be another world, completely different from the world on the ground. There are various floating creatures here, such as small transparent jellyfish, shrimps, fish, swaying squid and snails.
They have almost no so-called vocal organs, and they carry out their own activities. Only the slight swaying of the water flow and the slight sound of running water make people aware of their existence.
After entering the water, Lorraine Hill and Tehua did not dive hard, but continued to strengthen the shields that protected them.
The light blue veins were continuously outlined like silk threads, and then layered and solidified, strengthening the spherical shield step by step. The two witches moved forward slowly underwater, looking at the animals or small monsters around them with slightly curious eyes.
"It should be almost done." Lorraine Hill said this half an hour later.
"Yeah." Tehua nodded, and then the two dived again.
This time it was different from before. The spherical shield resisted the increasingly terrifying water pressure. The edge began to emit a shimmer of magic, and some of the peripheral threads began to slowly shrink in disorder, and then again.
They were healed one by one by the magic power replenished from behind.
Supporting the shield, the two of them entered deeper and deeper into the seabed, and the world around them became darker and darker. It was like entering a world where no light could be seen at all, and even up, down, left, and right could not be distinguished.
Except for the faint glow of magic within the shield, all that can be seen outside is endless darkness and abyss, and the world has become extremely silent, extremely silent.
Sound seems to have become a rare thing.
As she continued to dive, Lorraine Hill could clearly hear her own breathing, as well as Tehua's faint gasping beside her. In the end, she could even clearly feel the heartbeats of the two of them.
The sound of fabric rubbing together, the sound of unconscious swallowing in the throat, the sound of air passing through the chest and lungs, and the slight cracking sound of the outer layer of the shield.
It turns out that there are so many tiny corners in the past that he was not aware of. After entering the deep water area, Lorraine Hill had such thoughts in his mind.
Time passed slowly, feeling extremely slow. When the second layer of structure around the shield was on the verge of being crushed, the two of them slowly stopped.
It's not that they can't go any lower, but if they go any lower, they will have to concentrate on maintaining the shield, and their strength will be greatly reduced, and they will become more dangerous.
At this depth now, even if a Sequence 9 sea beast comes over and the two witches join forces, they can still leave safely, but it is hard to say if it goes further down.
"That's it." The silver-haired girl said.
"Okay." Tehua responded softly.
Then the two divided the work again, Tehua was responsible for maintaining the shield and protection, and Lorraine Hill was responsible for perception and detection.
After finishing preparations, Lorraine Hill closed his eyes, clasped his hands together, and began to prepare slowly.
The magic power in the extraordinary core began to operate at full speed, and then continued to compress and overflow according to a certain pattern, forming ripples as ethereal as filaments.
The magic power in the emerald-like core shines brightly, constantly absorbing, transforming and compressing, and then light blue ripples spread slowly like ripples, surrounding the core.
A few minutes later, Lorraine Hill slowly opened her eyes and released her hands. As if being activated, ripples began to ripple away from her side and spread towards the extremely deep ocean.
Layers of faint light filtered through the tiny molecules in the deep sea, the creatures swimming in the darkness, and the hidden extraordinary hunters, constantly reflecting various scenes and information back to Lorraine Hill, allowing her to perceive it again.
In this way, she began to outline a complex and extremely detailed model in her mind.
Even though it was the bottom of the sea, her talent in perception still allowed her to do this very smoothly. This may be the bonus of her mythical talent.
After several hours of analysis, the situation in this sea area was finally slowly discovered by the girl.
There are basically no large sea beasts within fifty nautical miles around. However, there is a Sequence 7 sea beast vaguely swimming about ninety nautical miles to the southeast. Judging from the sound coming from the deep sea, it should be a special sea whale.
.
There is still no trace of the ocean currents described by the ice elves before here, as if the past records were wrong. The sea water here is very dead and there are not many active animals.
Under normal circumstances, there should be places near ocean currents where life is densely packed and very active, just like the main roads on the seabed and big cities, where there are more fish and lively, but there are still no such places.
Can you only look down? Lorraine Hill hesitated.
"Did you find anything?" Tehua asked curiously when he saw Lorraine Hill's movements gradually stopping.
"No, there is almost no valuable information."
"Then let's take a look further?" Tehua took the initiative.
"It feels more dangerous if you go further down."
"Is that so..." Tehua stopped talking after hearing this.
The two of them stayed quietly underwater for a while.
Tehua: "Let's go. There is no other good way to go back now. I still have the strength to protect myself."
She could tell that Lorraine Hill still wanted to go down and have a look, but she was afraid of harming herself.
"Okay." Lorraine Hill finally nodded, and then the two held hands and sank again.
As they dive deeper and deeper, the water pressure becomes heavier and heavier, and even the isolation shield controlled by the two becomes somewhat stiff and no longer as flexible as before.
Looking at the virtual screen count in his eyes, Lorraine Hill secretly compared past records.
It is already deeper than the Mariana Trench, and there is still no bottom.
It seems that after the drastic changes that year, not only the shape and distribution of the continents, but also the seabed are completely different from the past.
Under the extremely silent deep sea, Lorraine Hill sensed the surrounding environment, and then continued to spread his perception. In this way, a long time passed.
"Almost reaching the bottom."
Tehua was startled by the girl's sudden reminder in the extremely silent environment. The sleeping witch reacted immediately and exhaled.
"Well, I understand." Then she mobilized her magic power again, causing the water flow attached to the outside of the shield to rotate downward again, and continued to push the spherical shield to sink.
Finally, half an hour later, the two reached the bottom of the sea.
The faint blue fluorescence turns into ripples, spreading in all directions, and then illuminating the surrounding environment and scenery.
"Here..." The two of them looked at their surroundings in surprise.
There are no aquatic plants or undersea plants here. The ground seems to be paved with a layer of extremely fine white sand, which is very soft, while some of the raised areas are made of stones and countless jagged and vague bones.
Even though I have never seen it in life, judging from the huge and ferocious skeleton, this giant beast should have been extremely powerful in life.
The depths of the seabed are the graveyard of the sea, where the corpses and skeletons of many sea beasts are piled up. Of course, there are also many calcareous shells of snails in the nooks and crannies, which are pale and incomplete.
"It seems that this sea area should have had ocean currents passing through it in the past, which is why so many skeletons accumulated. But why is it so dead now?"
Lorraine Hill quietly extended his perception and expressed the doubts in his heart.
"I don't know, I know very little about the world under the sea." Tehua shook her head. Although she is a witch, she is not omniscient and omnipotent.
Even among witches or sages who are rich in knowledge, very few of them know the seabed. Even in this extraordinary world, it is not suitable for long-term survival.
The two of them drove the spherical shield and continued to move forward on the seabed, while the spreading ripples continued to expand, exploring the surrounding scene.
In this way, a terrifying long roar came from the distance under the sea.
Long and distant sound waves spread across the seafloor, causing a tremor when they hit the shield. A large amount of white dust was also raised on the surrounding seafloor, flying everywhere. For the first time, small swimming creatures appeared among them, and the two people's consciousness seemed to have collided.
Like a giant mountain, I felt dizzy, a nauseating and dizzy feeling arose, and my body swayed.
After more than ten seconds, the noise ended, and the two of them slowly recovered.
"That's it?" Tehua asked in surprise after standing firm.
"It's a very scary guy. Let's go up there as soon as possible." Lorraine Hill felt an extremely dangerous feeling coming from the distance, as if an extremely scary guy was swimming over.
The two witches controlled the spherical shield and began to surge upwards like sharp arrows.
Floating is much easier than diving. As long as you let go of the previous restraints, the seawater will squeeze and push the shield upwards. At this time, under the high-speed shuttle, the originally spherical shield began to twist and shake. Fortunately, it was moved by the two men.
It held up without breaking.
Just when the two thought they were far away from the bottom of the sea, a huge dark figure also surged up from the bottom of the sea. The huge figure that was more than ten kilometers long shrouded it like a mountain, and then swallowed the tiny spherical shield through the sea water.
Then the world under the sea returned to peace again.
In the darkness and shaking, the two witches were filled into the body of this underwater beast, entering the extremely dark interior.
The slender teeth are like brushes filtering and chopping things that enter the body of the alien beast. As it shakes and rubs, the brilliance on the shield flashes, and the structure begins to be destroyed layer by layer. Several of the long thorn-like teeth are almost
Insert inside.
Fortunately, Lorraine Hill woke up from a series of shaking and supported the structure of the shield again, thus preventing the shield from being dismembered.
"Is this inside the body of a sea beast?" Tehua waited until the situation stabilized and looked at the fleshy walls around her.
Like a barrier between the upper and lower floors, the sky is an endless expanse of light red flesh, and the feet are also blood-red flesh, and most of the middle is glued together and filled with white slender teeth and long brushes. They are like born extraordinary creations.
, sharp and tough, the girl even saw a Sequence 6 turtle's back shell being easily scratched open by the tiny teeth, and then filtered into fine blood foam.
Everything in the field of vision is overwhelmed by this white forest of fine teeth, and one layer after another is layer after layer, like an endless maze with no end in sight.
"This is trouble." Lorraine Hill looked around and felt distressed.
Relying on her current abilities and powers, it is almost impossible to open the maw of a sea monster that spans several kilometers, and other witches' powers do not have a way to deal with the situation at this moment.
Do you want to play with explosions? It would be better to call Keti out to play with big explosions. This extremely violent method could not help but drift through her mind.
But if Keti is really called out to do this, I am afraid that not only this sea beast, but also hundreds of miles of seawater will rise to the sky, triggering global wave impacts and climate change.
That child's abilities were too terrifying. Lorraine Hill shook his head and decided to observe first.
And just as the two men were manipulating the spherical shield to move slowly in the long forest of fine teeth, the sea beast seemed to burp or swallow, and everything around it began to move again.
The world was turned upside down, and after the two people inside the shield staggered for a while, they gradually came to another place.
There may be a huge and deep pool in the stomach of the sea beast, with purple liquid echoing inside. Some squid and sea fish are still moving under the water, but some shrimps slowly melted soon after entering this place.
The shield the two of them were in floated on the purple liquid like a boat, and finally docked on the flesh wall at the edge.
Manipulating the spherical shield, it seemed to become elastic, jumped out of the water, and then got stuck in that corner. The two witches finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then knelt down inside the shield.
Phew, I finally found a stable place to stay.
So, let’s start analyzing this special beast first. A faint brilliance appeared in Lorraine Hill’s pupils, and then spread like ripples, scanning everything around him, and continued to spread outwards.
Finally, a huge virtual image appeared in front of the retina.
Talent: [Ballad of Desolation] (Legend): At the bottom of the deep sea, he sings in all the silence, lonely and desolate. Where the whale song sings, there is deathly silence.
ability:
[Silent Silence] (Legend): Even though this giant sea beast is extremely huge, it will still not bring about the surrounding magic or mana fluctuations, water waves, light, and sound, and pass by without leaving any trace, unless
It actively chirps, and no one can detect it anymore.
Skills: [Sea Stealth lv.9] [Subspace Shuttle lv.5] [Swallowing Thousand Miles lv.7] [Song of the Silent Whale lv.9] [Heavy Water Pressure lv.9] [Dead Bones Dead Sea lv.7]
————
It's a bit difficult to handle now.
After reading the information, Lorraine Hill tilted his head, thinking about how to convince this big guy to let him and Te Hua out.
