More than a dozen patrols have returned.

Some returned safely, some came back with some prey, and some said that they had encountered a "steel breca", and if it hadn't been severely injured with a few "soul tears", it was estimated that the whole army would have been wiped out.

"Gangbreca?"

Sophia's expression was solemn, "Remember its location, and send a few three-ring warriors to teach it a lesson next time." ”

"If the Three-Ring Warriors still can't expel it from Alloya's territory, I can only do it myself."

A cold light appeared in Sophia's eyes.

The so-called Three-Ring Warrior is the hierarchical division of the mermaid warrior's cultivation of soul power, and has mastered the three spells of soul screaming, soul splitting, and soul oscillation.

The four-ring warrior above the rank is only Queen Sophia.

"Your Majesty, you don't need to make a move, it's just a juvenile steel breca, as long as you dispatch two three-ring warriors, you will definitely be able to kill it!"

A mermaid captain said.

Sophia nodded, but to be on the safe side, she called four Three-Ring Warriors over and asked them to go on a mission to clear the "Gangbreka".

The Council Hall, a palace made of undersea gems and special ores.

It is five meters high and has an open interior, which can accommodate more than 100 mermaids for meetings.

Right now, Sophia is in a meeting with the twelve mermaid elders of Alloya.

The average lifespan of a mermaid is very short, and most mermaids have a short life span of just over twenty years.

But the average lifespan of these elders is more than thirty years old, and their soul power is strong.

The previous queen of Aloa, Ella, is now also among the elders, with a noble status, no need to work, and deal with the affairs of Aloa.

Today, Sophia is with these elders. A few important things were discussed.

"God has sent us an oracle: the underwater world is not the best place for Alloa to develop, and we should go to the upper layers of the sea to operate."

This sparked a burst of discussion.

"It's too dangerous above the sea, the air there is so poisonous that it can burn our skin, and if you take a breath, our internal organs will rot, and even the upper layer of the sea will not stay for long."

"The warm ocean floor is where we should go, but we can't see the existence of the Great Rift Valley anywhere else......"

Mermaids are anaerobic creatures and do not survive by aerobic respiration. The body structure is also made up of some anaerobic substances, and once exposed to the air where oxygen is stored, it is like a human entering a room full of carbon monoxide and quickly poisoning and dying...... Or even more terrifying, after oxygen enters the mermaid's body, it will be like sulfuric acid, quickly corroding their internal organs and torturing them to death.

But that doesn't mean mermaids don't have the possibility of expanding to the upper sea.

Phytochemically, anaerobic organisms are just a type of polarophile. Once the conditions change, it will eventually evolve towards aerobic organisms.

Humans, for example, are able to survive in the absence of oxygen for up to five minutes or so without dying immediately. This indicates that some anaerobic respiration properties are also retained...... It proves that humans evolved from anaerobic organisms.

Mermaids can also evolve, as long as they try to do it, it will probably take more than ten generations to reproduce, and they will be able to select offspring that can live in the upper seawaters.

The only thing needed. It's just a little bit of courage.

"Over the years, the population of Aloa has increased by 500,000, at this rate. In about another twenty years, mermaids will completely occupy this undersea rift......"

"But after that, I'm afraid this rift valley will not be able to provide enough food to feed our people, and the food that this rift valley can provide is limited."

"God tells us that the waters above are equally warm, and the food above is inexhaustible."

"We should try to develop upwards, expand the territory of Aloa, control the endless sea, and become the noble race of the sea, the king of the sea!"

One elder was a little worried: "God is right, but this rift, which can at least provide us with many years of development, why is there such a hurry to develop in the dangerous upper seas?" This issue can be discussed when there are enough of our people. ”

Mermaid country is a relatively conservative country, and under the conditions of sufficient food and comfortable environment, there is naturally no motivation to expand outward.

Another elder also said, "Yes, we can wait for a while before we discuss it." ”

Sophia shook her head, shook the fishtail and said: "No, after that, Alloa has forgotten the oracle of God, God is right, God's consideration is full of wisdom, if no one carries out God's will after it is issued, after a few years, Alloa is executing this oracle, it may be too late." ”

"So, I decided to send a patrol team of high-ranking soldiers to patrol the sea on a regular basis, to explore the environment of the upper layer and the surrounding seas, and to find out how wide the outside world really is!"

"Even, even myself, it is possible to join this patrol and explore the outside world!"

Sophia said with a firm face.

The elders were a little surprised, but seeing Sophia so resolute, and then thinking of the oracle sent to them by God to "unconditionally support the queen's decision on the important matter", they finally nodded, "I will support the queen's decision." ”

In fact, Sophia was not interested in exploring the world beyond the Rift Valley at first.

"This rift valley is enough to feed tens of millions of people, and we can live here forever."

But after a few conversations with the gods, Sophia quickly changed her mind.

"The bottom of the sea is not calm, and sudden earthquakes and volcanic eruptions can kill countless lives." - Through the Rope of Faith, Sophia received video footage of some scenes of submarine volcanic eruptions.

"The bottom of the sea is not safe either, and some never-before-seen sea beasts, with just one or two heads, can kill millions of people." ――In my mind, two more strange-shaped monsters appeared, such as an electric eel that could release a super electric current, and a monster with a body shape like a mountain.

"It's a wonderful world out there."

"During the day, there is a lot of light outside, the sky is blue, and the sea is blue......"

"At night, the sky is full of stars, the night is charming, and the sea is full of glowing fish......"

Sophia was shocked by the world of the sea as described by God.

Compared to the monotony of the seabed. The world above the sea is like paradise.

"Beloved God, where do you live? Above the sea? ”

At the same time, Sophia was curious, what was the place where God lived?

"No, I live on land, a place that is slightly more stable than the sea......"

happened to be fine, and Tianming gave Sophia science popularization.

Land, mountains, forests. Plains, farmland, human-inhabited cities, towering buildings, dazzling traffic, countless humans walking around the streets.

After receiving these picture messages, Sophia fell into an almost immediate state.

"Is that the world in which God lives?"

"Beautiful, so beautiful, like heaven."

The barren vocabulary of the mermaid's brain is really impossible to describe the protoss who live on land. What exactly it is like, there are only two words: shock.

"Beloved God, can I go to the land to live? I want to live in God's world. ”

Sophia made a "request" that she felt very excessive.

But God agreed, "Yes." But you can't leave the water, and you'll suffocate to death if exposed to the air, unless I prepare you a sealed glass jar...... But the glass tank is too small, and you won't like to be in it. ”

God sent her a picture of a glass jar...... This is also known as a fish tank.

Sophia was extremely excited. "Great, great, I really want to be in that nice room. Look at the world of God, see what heaven looks like! ”

However, in the subsequent exchanges, Sophia felt her own insignificance and inferiority again.

Because God sent her a picture of what he called a "space elevator", and it looked so shocking that Sophia went to the space elevator and asked many questions that she didn't know.

Such as what is the world really like?

How big is it?

Is it bigger than the Endless Sea?

What are the stars in the sky?

Helplessly, Tianming gave Sophia another science popularization.

"We all live on a planet called Blue Mercury, which is very large, 1.6 billion square kilometers, with the sea on it, and the land ......"

"Of course, the sea is not endless, it is about 1.5 billion square kilometers in size, nearly 30 times the size of the land."

"In addition to Blue Mercury, there are many planets, such as barren stars, red giants, golden stars, earth yellow stars, etc., all of which revolve around the stars."

"As for the star, which we generally call the sun, it is about a million times the size of Blue Mercury, and the light it emits gives warmth to the world and creates life on this planet."

"I can't describe the size of the universe...... If a mermaid represents a star, then the entire universe is the sum of countless billions of mermaids, and these mermaids are piled together enough to fill the entire Blue Mercury. ”

Sophia was completely stunned and couldn't speak for a long time.

It can be said that Sophia's worldview has completely changed.

The impact was just too great.

Even, because she felt that she was too small, during that time, Sophia was like a walking corpse, asking about the meaning of self-existence, and even had thoughts of self-severance.

When she was so confused that she was about to commit suicide, Sophia asked God, "What is the meaning of my zài?" ”

"That's a very good question."

"I also often think, what is the meaning of my zài?"

"Now I have come up with a basic answer, change the world, embrace the world, and become the master of this world?"

"No, that's not the end result I'm looking for, we're going to lose ourselves in this long process."

"My answer is to eliminate fear, eliminate ignorance, and finally become your own master, and live freely in this world......"

Sophia seemed to understand whether she understood or not, but she nodded anyway, strengthening her belief in her heart.

At the same time, from that moment on, Sophia's heart has fearless courage and pioneering motivation.

Start with this endless sea...... (To be continued......)
