After years of exploration.

Based on human understanding of the world, even if we only calculate the known territory, the area of the ocean is close to ninety percent.

With the exception of a very limited number of major shipping routes, even the most cutting-edge naturalists dare not claim to have known one thousandth of this vast ocean.

Even on the main shipping routes, what secrets are hidden under the water is a mystery for humans!

Obvious.

Judging by the various intelligent creatures that are active in this underwater city, humans are not the only lucky ones in this world.

The Creator did not give them favor, nor did He give them ownership of the world!

Perhaps, as human beings explore the world step by step, they will eventually learn how to get along with these powerful and powerful alien intelligent beings.

In the Misty Sea, which is comparable to the forbidden zone, in the "Broken Star Sea", which has just begun to explore on a large scale for a few years, and in those secret realms that have not been recorded on the navigation charts, as the footsteps of human beings go farther and farther, the true face of the world will eventually unfold in front of them little by little.

Sea elves, fishmen, storm djinns, and drowned souls are all just small things, and the strange monsters that roam the bottom of the sea, the evil dependents of unknown existence, and the unspeakable things hidden deep in mysterious places are the real horrors!

The oldest and strongest human emotion is fear, and the oldest and strongest fear is the unknown.

I just don't know what price human beings will pay for exploring the unknown in the future!

And these are also what Evan has to face on a new journey.

At this time.

In the center of the underwater city "Heraclian", the "Temple of the Angry Waves" has begun to take shape after priority restoration.

"Lord Huggins!"

"Imam Fisher!"

Two of the highest-ranking members of the Black Sea Goddess met at the door.

One is Huggins, the pirate king who is burly and not weakened in the slightest despite his broken arm;

One is Fisher, the Storm Priest who is dressed in the robe of the Wave Flower Sect and has a determined and radiant look in his eyes.

As the number one hero of the Goddess of Liberation, Huggins became the leader of the human race, but Fisher's sudden rise to prominence was unexpected by everyone, especially Huggins.

Just because.

Unlike those elite pirates who were originally just shallow believers because of their own orders and constant self-suggestion, this "spoiler" and "lucky man" who came out of nowhere was among the more than 1,000 members of the Angry Waves Church at this time... The most devout!

Unbelief, hypocrisy, shallow belief, pious belief, fanatical belief, righteous belief...

Fisher, who had just been inspired to take refuge in the goddess, had already become a devout person, and even faintly showed signs of fanatical believers!

This difference in faith is difficult to discern in the eyes of others, but it is only clear in the eyes of God.

Gifts, of course, also follow.

In particular, as a type of priesthood, the "Priest of the Angry Waves" relies heavily on the power of the gods, which also means that they do not need to put in too much effort, or learn various skills and knowledge, as long as they can give faith, establish merit, and please the gods, everything is not a problem.

So.

Fisher, who was just an ordinary person a month ago, had easily crossed the apprenticeship at this time and became a prefector-level priest of the "Raging Waves Church", which was equivalent to a second-order transcendent!

Above all those who joined the church at the same time.

It also broke Huggins's plan to monopolize the power of the "Angry Wave Church".

Of course, only now, when the new forces are waiting to be revived, can they be promoted with the possibility of making an exception.

When the church is stabilized, the upper limit of faith, merit, and the power of the goddess will turn into thresholds, restricting the upward path of most people.

However, the rejuvenated Fisher is clearly not aware of this, and has only heartfelt respect for Huggins, an indisputable powerhouse in terms of strength and merit:

"Lord Huggins!

Your devotion to the Goddess is beyond the reach of all of us, and you are an example to all of our Raging Priests!

It's just that our strength is low, and if we lose our entire left hand, we will no longer be able to serve the goddess at all.

However, that doesn't stop us from paying tribute to you!"

Boom.. Boom.. Boom..

Huggins looked at the guy who had ruined his plan, his sharp eyes flickered slightly, and the green tendons on his head couldn't stop jumping.

As an unbeliever who only sees interests and power in his eyes, he can't tell whether what such fanatical believers say is true or false.

The loss of an arm is of course a great bad thing for a normal person, but in the eyes of these priests of the angry waves under the command of the goddess of the Black Sea, this is the dedication and loyalty to the goddess!

Moreover, this argument is very marketable among the human believers under the command of the goddess, which makes it difficult for Huggins himself to ride a tiger.

Although the profession of "Prisoner of Banishment" is a transformation of knights who are skilled in the use of physical strength, their philosophy is that the human body is actually a shackle that imprisons the soul.

By liberating one's own instincts, nature, and banishing reason, good thoughts, and even human nature, you can release the "prisoner" in your heart and gain powerful power beyond the limit.

Now that he has just stepped into the fourth-order "lawless", he still needs the support of physical combat power.

But if you go to the point where the Titled Knight condenses the "Titled Hallows" or the crowned wizard completes the "Truth Manifestation", he will completely get rid of the last shackles of this human body, exist in the form of a combination of spirit and energy, and gain true freedom!

Therefore, how can the "lawless" who regard the flesh as a prison have the ability to be reborn with severed limbs?

At a time when everyone thought Huggins was deliberately showing his loyalty, it was hard for him to be cheeky enough to ask the goddess for a new arm.

Maybe.

Now whether it is strength or fame, he is the first person under the real goddess.

But if one day you suddenly appear in front of these believers with your arms intact, the team is really difficult to bring!

At that time, he was really far from the position of Heinmtz, the president of the "Deep Sea Brotherhood".

Apparently, Huggins, who thought he had broken all his bonds, had no idea that he himself was being bound by another shackle that he had woven with his own hands, and that he would probably never think of breaking free.

That is a burning "fame and fortune heart"!

"Hahaha, Patriarch Fisher, we all see your devotion to the goddess, the Angry Waves Church has started from scratch, and we still need to cooperate sincerely and work together!"

Huggins's praise of Fisher acquiesced, but he had already made up his mind to go to the "evil alchemist" he had seen before, and see if he could replace himself with an alchemy arm that could be disassembled at any time.

"For the goddess!"

For the devout, it is clear that nothing is more important than the cause of the goddess.

"I have received a promise from the Goddess that I can use His power to build a legendary warship belonging to our 'Church of the Angry Waves'.

But it's up to us to find enough extraordinary materials ourselves.

For the goddess of human origin, we are obviously his real descendants, and the increasing number of those aliens may not necessarily be a good thing.

I hope that in my absence, His Excellency, as the current Supreme Priest, will take up his responsibility and always ensure the purity of the 'Angry Waves Church'!"

Now that the wood is in place, he cannot completely control the nascent "Angry Waves Church", nor can he risk angering the goddess to kill this most devout believer.

Of course, the only way to do this is to cooperate and jointly control this right.

In the face of Huggins's "foresight", Fisher was convinced, and felt that the other party was worthy of being the pirate king of the sea.

"Please rest assured, Lord Huggins, you can rest assured to build our own legendary warship, and the underwater city of 'Heraclian' will be handed over to us 'Priests of the Angry Waves'!"

In the depths of the shrine behind him, the sea fairies, who have become the goddess's attendants, sing the melody of the sea with their beautiful singing voices.

"Uha!

In the half-submerged plaza in the center of the city, not far from the temple, a group of fishmen dressed in various scales have abandoned their original bone and stone tools, and are wielding the steel cold weapons that the pirates brought underwater to practice.

The strong and strong fish-men cannot attack the weak points under the water without human warships, and as more and more fish-people rush to take on the main force, they can completely surround and kill the sea monster with a tenfold and hundredfold numerical advantage.

Drowned souls armed with weapons from all eras, scimitars, swords, spears, crossbows, arquebuses, and flintlock pistols, swarmed through the city in droves.

They don't take physical damage, and they can also be bodily blurred, they are the best scouts and assassins.

The smallest number of storm djinns are the backbone commanders of the goddess, and each of them is as strong as a small sea monster, and has a superior intelligence comparable to that of humans.

More wild sea monsters have been dispatched to regain control of their former territory.

Over here.

Based in the "Eye of the Storm", the reborn forces have begun to fight fiercely, ready to start a war for the dominance of the Black Sea with the "Mother of Sea Monsters" on the other side.

Maybe it's a month, maybe it's a year, and although it's unlikely that the two goddesses, both in a weakened state, will fight head-on anytime soon, the war between their dependents can start at any time.

Probably on the dark depths of the sea, of course... It could also be on the high sea routes, the main artery of human trade!
