from the deep sea

Chapter 18 Sea Emperor

The next day, the diplomats and finance officials who were hastily called in for negotiations got off the plane before the high-level discussions of the Federation had any effective results. A sudden earthquake disrupted the plans of mankind.

The Geological Bureau detected that the center of the earthquake was located in the depths of the seabed far away from the central island. Although the scale was large, it had no impact on the central island, so it did not pay attention to it, and simply made a record.But the mermaids in the deep sea seemed to have sensed something abnormal, and began to move frequently.

A few minutes after the earthquake, the pure-blooded mermaid near the central island beach tore through the beach's defense net and swam toward the deep sea.The patrol found out that the pure-blooded mermaids had disappeared collectively after the alarm sounded, and immediately reported it to the mermaid center.

He Man pondered for a long time looking at the photo of the defensive net that had been roughly torn.He said to other members of the expert group: "I guess, something abnormal may have happened in the sea."

"Earthquake?" A professor wondered, "Shouldn't we stay away from the source of the earthquake under normal circumstances?"

He Man shook his head: "For us, it might just be an earthquake, but for them, it's still unknown."

The federal military's reconnaissance plane launched a large-scale reconnaissance operation in the next few days, and found that many mermaids of intermediate species and mixed species were far away from the earthquake source. On the contrary, some mermaids of heavy species were approaching there .

Because it can only detect the situation on the sea surface, the federal side does not dare to judge whether this phenomenon is common or a coincidence.After discussion, the Federation finally decided to launch an underwater detector into the sea.

However, what they didn't expect was that the operation did not go smoothly.The ancient merfolk's aversion to the machinery that entered the sea was more serious than they imagined.About half of the scouting devices put in at the beginning were destroyed by ancient mermaids within two days of entering the water, and the rest are also on the way to being destroyed.

"This won't work, be careful the detector is too easy to damage." An academician of the Academy of Sciences said.

Another person frowned and said, "What's the matter? Launching a submarine or a large underwater survey machine?"

"Haven't you ever thought that throwing large underwater equipment rashly will attract the resistance of the ancient mermaid?" Dai Meng, a researcher at the Research Institute of the Mermaid Center, reminded.

The academician who said to launch the submarine earlier retorted: "Then we will completely give up marine resources? Without survey equipment, we don't know what happened in the sea at all, and there is no way to understand the habits of ancient mermaids."

"But—" Damon wanted to say something, but the old director of the scientific research institute waved his hands and said, "Surveying the ocean is what we must do, but we have no intention of harming the ancient mermaids. Let's try to launch a few drones first." Human surveying machine. Didn’t the ancient mermaids understand the common language of the Federation? We can install a playback system on the surveying machine to tell them that we have no malicious intentions.”

The old dean's proposal was adopted, and the first batch of three large underwater survey aircraft was put in place and was thrown into the sea in early August.

Near the east of Guam's Mariana Islands, on the seabed of the western North Pacific Ocean, is the site of the Marinaya Trench.

At a water depth of 8000 meters, this dark, high-pressure and icy world has rarely seen any marine life.It is true that the mermaid can swim in complete darkness, but a little light can always make people feel better.Silvertails like to catch jellyfish or krill to serve as light sources. The luminescent creatures placed in the water polo can usually go to Fichards safely and return to the shallow sea safely. Their function, to put it bluntly, is a mobile portable lamp.Of course, if you encounter a hungry mermaid on the road, you may also be eaten as a reserve food. In this regard, krill is far more dangerous than jellyfish.

The pure bloods have been approaching the Fichards Sea Abyss on their way for several days in a row. The closer they get, the more Nan Yu can't restrain his excitement.

In the eyes of the ancient mermaid, the earthquake a few days ago was not a simple earthquake. It was caused by the shattering of the Sea Emperor's ice coffin.

Passing through the gate of Fechaz, the temple complex of Atlantis unfolds in front of you.

Nan Yu stared at the mysterious and solemn temple. This place gave him a quiet and beautiful feeling. Compared with the seabed, he didn't like the sea.

But Huang likes it.Hai Ruo has never deliberately avoided humans, he likes the tranquility of the temple and also enjoys the gentle touch of the wind blowing across his cheeks on the sea.If there is a strong wind and rainstorm, he will also ride the wind and waves.He enjoys the thrill of conquering the enemy, and in the vast ocean, only humans dare to challenge the Neptune.

Therefore, all those who opposed him were drowned by the tsunami, frightened to death by sea monsters, torn to pieces by sharks, and thrown into the sea to die of starvation, thirst, and despair.Only you can't think of it, no one can't do it.

In general, except for Nan Yu, no mermaid would think that the Sea Emperor is a reliable guy, including his priests and temple guards.The ancient mermaids only submit to power, and the black tail is the emperor, which is the innate right given to him by the power of the sea god.

The ice coffin hidden behind the main temple shattered to the ground. With the awakening of the Sea Emperor, the ice will gradually melt and finally merge with the sea water.

The purebloods failed to find the Neptune in the temple.An Fei curled her tail and asked Nan Yu, "Separate up and look for them?"

Nan Yu smiled and shook his head: "It's okay, you stay here, I'll just go."

The purebloods nodded frantically. God knows if the boss has the energy to wake up. At this time, if he gets up, he will be punched and swung a few meters away.

Even the brother-controlling little Jinwei shrank his shoulders to express that he didn't want to go to the Sea Emperor with his brother.That big black demon... Nan Luo flicked his fish tail, as if he had returned to the miserable days when he was taught hunting skills by his hateful teacher.

#Have you ever felt the despair of being besieged by dozens of sailfish#

#Just escaped from the sailfish school and was surrounded by tiger sharks, do you understand the despair of not being able to use sound waves? #

Nan Luo looked at several other adult golden tails with pitiful eyes, but as a result, the group of bastards immediately looked away as soon as they met his eyes, it couldn't be better!

"I think you teach very well, my dear teachers, I don't want to change teachers." The little boy let out a voice of expectation.

Dong Sheng immediately shook his head: "No, no, we are not one ten thousandth as good as the boss. We misunderstood the younger generation, and our technical level is limited——"

"You just dare not mention it to him!" Nan Luo shouted angrily.

Boyce hooked Xiao Jinwei's shoulder, and said earnestly: "The main reason is that I can't beat it."

Sene and Wendell nodded: This is the reality.

So, where is the big devil Heiwei in Nan Luo's heart?Nan Yu chose the garden maze almost without thinking.The huge garden is composed of huge corals and sea anemones. Even the purebloods who frequent the Temple of Atlantis often get lost in it. At present, the only one that is as stable as the GPS submarine positioning system is Hai Ruo, who enters and exits the labyrinth garden. , never rolled over.

As soon as Nanyu entered the maze, he bumped into several panicked lionfish head-on. He glanced at the direction in which the lionfish were fleeing, and swam decisively in the opposite direction.Hai Ruo has done the same trick many times, and it is almost impossible to catch Hai Ruo as soon as he comes in.

Swimming along the gaps in the coral and passing two corners, at a fork leading in all directions, Nanyu felt the water flow behind him move, and turned his head suddenly, only to see an angelfish spitting bubbles in a daze. look at him.

Pursing his lips, Nan Yu was just about to look in another direction when the thin scales on his back were suddenly poked, and at the same time a chuckle sounded from behind him.Nan Yu raised his tail and turned around, only to see a black voice quickly disappearing around the corner of the coral, while a cold touch remained on the tip of his sensitive tail.

Nan Yu doesn't know why Hai Ruo likes to play such childish games, but as long as Hai Ruo doesn't tell him to stop, he will keep playing with him.The two mermaids are coming and going in the coral, and the fishes that have been tossed so unsafely are fleeing outwards one after another.

After another handful of hair was pulled by Hai Ruo, Nan Yu grabbed a piece of seaweed and tied up his overlong hair.In fact, he had thought about cutting off his overly feminine long hair, but he met with crying objections from the silver-tailed girls.Anfei even hugged his waist and yelled: "It's already very miserable to suddenly become a mermaid, why should I be deprived of the right to see the big beauty!"

After several times, Nan Yu had no choice but to give up this idea.However, he came up with a new idea—then, the golden-tailed mermaid was forced to grow her hair, at least to the shoulders.Because Nan Luo was young and didn't have this trouble for the time being, when fighting, he often used this advantage to reach out and pull the opponent's pigtails, one by one, and he was flattered.

Unknowingly drawn to the center of the maze, Nan Yu stared at the empty Baibei throne and began to daze.He was thinking, Hai Ruo seemed to be in a particularly high spirits today, and the game was a bit long.

Behind the white-tailed mermaid, the Sea Emperor, who saw his priest suddenly not moving, quietly appeared there, but Nan Yu didn't notice anything unusual.

Hai Ruo's gaze fell on the back of the white-tailed mermaid. Because his long hair was bundled up in front of his chest, his graceful back was completely exposed to Hai Ruo's eyes. There were two small depressions on both sides of the chest, and he moved his fingers, suppressing the desire to poke.

It might be that Hai Ruo's gaze was too intense, Nan Yu seemed to sense it, and before he could turn his head, Hai Ruo moved his tail and rushed to Nan Yu's side quickly, while wrapping his arms around his shoulders, tearing off his hair. Seagrass, he also combed the other party's extremely soft hair.

"I caught you, my great priest."
