Chapter 120: The Kidnapper of the Abyss

It's a place of pure darkness.

It's under the misty depths, it's not very deep, but no light can reach here, it's a world where you can't see anything, but if there's light, you can see a 'thorn ball' resting on the seabed.

It was actually a swarm of worms wrapped together, dozens of worms wrapped together, forming a thorn ball with a diameter of more than ten meters, and in the thorn ball, there was a ship, Susumi and some jade dragons were trapped inside......

The worm grabbed Susumi's ship and sank all the way to the seabed, where it ...... There was no movement.

They don't seem to be going anywhere, and the worms show no signs of trying to move, but because they're sealed, there's still a lot of air inside.

They've been there for a long time, what exactly are these worms trying to do? Although there is still plenty of air inside, you can't wait forever.

Lin has always asked a class of troops, Behemoth, to watch them here, Behemoth, Behemoth was originally on the journey to the Eastern Continent, and because of the relative proximity here, Lin let Behemoth come to this sea.

Now, Lynn wants to try to bump them into them and see what happens......

Thinking about it, Lynn let Behemoth swim slowly and gently bumped the thorn ball.

'Gollum. A few bubbles came out of the spike, but they remained still.

'Boom! Then Behemoth struck it with greater force, and the whole ball shook on the seabed......

However, the worms continued to entangle the ship. Remain completely immobile.

It's funny. Why are they so persistent? It seems that they have a strange purpose. And they think that wrapping the ship is more important than their own lives?

So let's take a blast and see the answer.

Behemoth stuck out the muzzles of the cannons from the sides of his head and aimed at the worms, calculating that Lynn's blast would not hurt the ship inside, but would cause the worms to take some damage, so as to see how they reacted.

'Bang! ’

A blast bomb slams into the spike ball and explodes. There was a dull rattle in the water.

The worms affected by the bomb ...... "Gollum" had a lot of spikes off their bodies, and some blood flowed out of them, although there was no light, but the smell was too strong.

Even so, they remained in one position.

Although the worm does not move, its surroundings have a different appearance.

'Boom. A strange voice sounded around Behemoth.

Lynn noticed that the dark waters around her lit up a little, almost exactly the same as the fire she had seen on the surface of the sea before.

Because in the pure black environment, even the starry firelight is particularly conspicuous. It slowly floated towards this side like a ghostly fire......

And. And it wasn't just this flame, as it fluttered, the surrounding waters lit up with the same light.

As if countless torches were burning in the water, the place was lit up by firelight, and the dark seabed was as bright as day.

In the light, Lynn could clearly see the burning things in the water, which were stones with a torch on their backs, just like the water, but they moved quickly in the water and gathered in this direction......

Lynn calls this kind of thing 'sea ghosts', and they're actually a creature.

The creatures have an arthropod-like visceral structure, but their shells are made of rock-like chitin, and they can float and move freely in the water, most notably, the torches on their backs.

The 'torch' on the back of the sea ghost is a hollow tube filled with their own excrement, at the bottom of which they will suck the water dry and push it upwards, and at the head of the pipe they will set fire to the excrement and make it burn.

Because they are protected by a transparent shell, they seem to be able to burn in water, and the oxygen consumed by combustion is also provided by themselves, and they have the ability to quickly extract oxygen from water, and these creatures are the truth of the 'Sea of Lights'......

The exact purpose of this torch is not entirely determined, it may be used for lighting, it may be used for attack, or it may be used to form a special relationship with the strange fish.

When the sea ghosts are infested, there will be strange fish around, and near each burning fire, there are a large number of strange fish, and their goal is quite the same, that is, Lynn's Behemoth.

The creatures surrounded Behemoth, and they swam around constantly, but did not attack.

However, Lin didn't wait for them to attack, and Behemoth opened the muzzle of the cannon first, aiming at the surrounding fish.

'Bang! ’

The group of monsters dispersed in fright under the muffled sound of the bombs, but they regrouped at the same speed, and this time, they finally opened their mouths and rushed towards Behemoth.

A large number of strange fish completely enveloped Behemoth, and they kept biting at Behemoth's skin, but their teeth could not penetrate Behemoth's tough cortex, but they kept trying.

Behemoth shook his body slightly, shaking all the fish away from him, and they immediately rushed again, but Behemoth made a noise.

'Hum-' It's an extreme noise. All the monster fish stopped in place and shook their heads uncomfortably.

Sure enough, the sound attack is quite effective......

…… Wait a minute.

Lynn suddenly noticed that the worm stinger that had been by Behemoth's side was gone.

That thorn ball...... Did you take the opportunity to run away? It's really fast, but I don't know exactly how they move......

Maybe the reason why he didn't move just now was because Behemoth was watching, I don't know if these strange fish here are related to sea ghosts and worms, they may just come here by chance to hunt for food...... Or are you working with worms?

They still want to continue attacking Behemoth, and Lynn thinks the former is more likely......

But even if the worms escaped when Behemoth wasn't looking, Lynn knew where they were.

Spies are everywhere......

……………

"Gaga...... Where is this? ”

A green creature opened its eyes, and a soft glow slowly filled its vision......

It looked around and found itself sitting on a gray sandy ground, with strange plants, only a dozen centimeters tall, with fat leaves that glowed sky blue.

Among these piles of plants, there are also several emerald dragons sleeping......

This light made the awakened emerald dragon, Susumi, understand that this was a cave, and that the surrounding cave walls were also covered with this glowing plant, and that he and part of his crew had somehow come here.

"Surrounded by a swarm of worms, then it seemed to sink under the sea, and then there was a strange tremor...... "Susumi tried to recall the previous situation, but it felt a little headache: "Why did you end up in such a strange place?" ”

"Gah!" An exclamation sounded beside Susumi, and an emerald dragon beside it climbed up: "King? Didn't get hurt, right? ”

"It's fine." Susumi said: "It seems that we have arrived in a strange place. “

"It's weird indeed." The emerald dragon said, "We should ...... What's that? ”

Suddenly there was a noise in the bushes of plants in front of me, and a small creature climbed onto a tall plant and looked into Susumi's eyes.

"This is an ancient squid." Susumi knew the creature.

This ancient squid is about 20 centimeters tall, and although it seems small, it is a little larger than the species of the Northern Continent, but its appearance is exactly the same.

The ancient squid waved its tentacles at the plant, its body erected, and began to change colors, which combined to form a pattern.

The ancient squid conjured various patterns in front of the two jade dragons, but Susumi and the other jade dragon still looked at the ancient squid with confusion......

"King! It seems to be trying to express something, look closely at its patterns. The jade dragon carefully looked at the pattern on the ancient squid's body, and saw that the ancient squid first changed the color of silver, then showed the pattern of two blades, then green, then turned bright red, and finally showed the pattern of fish......

"I see." The jade dragon said: "It probably imagines us to express that its meat, when cut with a knife, will turn red and green, and it tastes like fish, which is delicious." ”

Su Sumi looked at this jade dragon expressionlessly and said, "Do you really think it will say that?" ”

"Ga ......" the jade dragon said, "I'm sorry, it's just that I'm a little hungry." ”

"It's supposed to be about the silver dragons." Susumi looked at Gu Squid and said, "It knows about our war. ”

The jade dragon hurriedly said: "It is worthy of being a king!" It must be so! ”

"Are you...... Be a member of the Institute of Oceanography. Susumi glanced at the jade dragon and said, "I don't know how you got into the expedition, but after that, you can disband." ”

"Gah? Why? The Emerald Dragon was stunned for a moment, but Susumi ignored it and continued to look at the ancient squid......

The ancient squid noticed that Susumi was paying attention to it, and it began to change.

But this time the change is very simple, it shows two stones sandwiched together, and then a white color......

"What does it mean this time?" Susumi looked more confused this time.

"This probably means ......" The previous jade dragon leaned over and said, "Is it going to use a stone to clamp something?" ”

'Boom! As soon as the Emerald Dragon's words fell, there was a sound nearby. (To be continued......)
