Chapter 245: Treasure Hunt at the Bottom of the Sea (Part II)
When Tang Jie heard Octavier's words, he immediately gasped: "Laughing at you, we formed a bond with these guys last time in Mozambique!"
He wanted to say, "It seems that the leader of the Nagas last time was your enemy, and you actually want to go to them for help?"
But Tang Jie saw Octavier's expression indifferent, this powerful mermaid didn't seem to care about this kind of thing at all, and the enmity with the powerful Naga clan in the sea seemed to her to be just an ordinary thing like eating and drinking.
Before the change, Tang Jie would also feel that this was not a big deal like Octavier, especially in the battle of Mozambique, although the Naga clan's sneak attack was fierce and fast, wasn't it also forced back by Fiona?
But the longer he has been in this world, the more Tang Jie has learned about this world.
For those who live at sea all year round, there are two creatures in the sea world that must not be offended, one is the most mysterious ancient monster entrenched in the bottom of the sea: the Devourer. This devourer has been described in the classics that record the ancient god wars: its body is like a towering mountain, its limbs are like continuous mountains, it can swallow a river in one bite, in the sea it is the most terrible monster created by the sea god Tira, in the sea, it has irresistible power.
For such a daunting textual description, Tang Jie still suspects that this kind of text has a serious literary tendency: exaggerated!
Especially this kind of ancient divine beast, Tang Jie knew that the author generally liked to describe this kind of creature that could not be seen at all in an exaggerated way, because since the classical birth of this ancient monster was recorded, Tang Jie had never heard of anyone seeing this terrifying demonic beast.
Compared to creatures like Devourers, which only exist in mythological stories, Tang Jie is much more familiar with another race that is too powerful to offend.
The first race of the sea, the Naga race, this race is one of the three major god races created by the sea god Tira, when the god Raphael chased and killed the sea god Tira in the sea, the sea dragon clan and the sea fish clan were all wiped out, but the Naga tribe survived, and this alone shows the strength of the Naga tribe.
What's even more frightening is that when the god Raphael remotely controlled the Angel Alliance and the sea god Tira and the race alliance manipulated by the god of the earth Gaia, the human race created by the god of the earth Gaia did not have fighting spirit and magic at all from the beginning, and the Naga race, which was the leader race in the racial alliance at that time, taught magic and fighting spirit to humans in order not to let the humble and weak humans drag themselves back.
In the long war of gods that followed, human beings gradually replaced the Naga as the leading race in the racial alliance with their tenacious and tenacious character, strong reproductive ability and superhuman learning ability.
It can be said that the origin and origin of the human race, whether it is magic or fighting spirit, comes from the Naga tribe and the ocean!
Such a powerful race is terrifying even when you think about it, and there is a saying in the world of the sea: I would rather offend the sea god Tila than offend the Naga!
Offending Tira, the god of the sea, perhaps this great god of fraternity will just laugh at the fact that her small and humble life is not worth her help, but offending the Naga people will definitely be a nightmare.
The Nagas are born to be powerful warriors of both fighting spirit and magic, whether they are male or female Nagas, they have extremely terrifying combat power, and the most terrifying thing is that this animal is a social animal, and it is not as lonely as the overlord shark in the sea.
Once you offend the Nagas, these guys may not attack for a while, but they will be with you like a shadow in the sea, and then suddenly attack when you don't even expect it!
Even a powerful empire with a fleet of warships that covers the sky and the sun does not dare to call out to the Naga, because in the middle of the sea, the Naga are the absolute kings.
In other words, this creature has highly developed intelligence, extremely strong combat strength, each Naga is equivalent to a submarine in the sea, and the most terrifying thing for a warship at sea is not the hordes of enemy ships, but the enemies lying in ambush at the bottom of the sea.
In this age of the ocean, where there is no anti-submarine technology at all, the Nagas are the natural enemies of warships!
Thinking of this, Tang Jie suddenly thought of a question that he had never thought of: the last time in Mozambique, he and Fiona could be regarded as offending the Naga, but why did these Nagashi never take revenge on them?
Could it be that the Naga have a big heart?
It's not like the last time the Naga leader saw Octavir, his face was full of bitterness and hatred, not like the kind of person who would meet and smile and enmity!
If they are not such magnanimous people, why haven't these guys come to trouble themselves until now?
Tang Jie tilted his head and thought, he couldn't do anything for a while.
In fact, Tang Jie didn't know that although the Naga people were powerful, this powerful race had a fatal flaw like the dragon race and the giant race created by the god Raphael.
That is, the population is too small!
When the human race was first created by Gaia, the god of the earth, it was undoubtedly a "hybrid hybrid" breed that combined dwarves and orcs, although he did not have the tyrannical tendency of orcs to be uncomfortable without fighting, nor did he have the greedy nature of dwarves, but he also did not inherit the natural strong flesh of orcs and the innate creative talent of dwarves.
Powerful flesh, outstanding combat talent, and outstanding creative talent, this kind of thing has not been inherited by the human collective, but only appears in the human race with a small probability.
But it is precisely because of this that humanity has a unique strength, the humblest and weakest race, and has the last laugh in the race against time.
This strength is that human beings are more capable of reproducing than any other race, even hundreds of times stronger!!
To put it bluntly: I can't beat you, I'm not as smart as you, but I can give birth!
If you give birth to ten offspring, all of them are excellent breeds, then I will give birth to tenlly, a million, or even ten million!
No matter how small the probability of inheritance is, in front of such a huge population base, it is also a frightening number!
The hero of mankind is the "small probability winner" who stands out on such a huge population base!
Once a hero is born, it means that a group of sheep has a lion as their leader, and a race begins to change dramatically.
Because of this, when the Divine War finally ended in the victory of the racial alliance, humans began to take over the domination from the Naga, orcs, and dwarves, and there were human footprints and figures everywhere in the world.
Although the Naga people who retreated to live under the ocean hated these shameless and humble human beings for banning them and becoming the masters of this world, they could not do anything about this irreparable situation, because their population was too small, although Tang Jie had offended this powerful race, it was impossible for them to stare at Tang Jie alone, and then do nothing else.
What's more, the Nagas who attacked Mozambique are just a branch of the Naga tribe, and it is so easy for the vast ocean to find Tang Jie and take revenge on him!
Besides, Tang Jie had set off a storm in the imperial capital of Garcia before, and it was all something that happened on land, and it was impossible for the Naga people to go deep into the land to find Tang Jie's trouble if they wanted to retaliate.
However, Tang Jie naturally didn't know about this, he turned his head and asked Octavir puzzled: "It's strange! Aren't the Naga people the most vindictive? Why don't they trouble us when we have made such a big bond for them in Mozambique?"
Octavir smiled faintly and said, "Because the Nagas once had an unwritten agreement with humans. ”
"What agreement?" Tang Jie asked.
Octavier said: "Humanity was ambitious to dominate all the land, all the seas, and the whole sky, and in fact, it did. So, the arrogant human beings harnessed the tame griffins, war eagles, and flying dragons to attack the sky temple where the god of the sky Raphael was, and this stupid behavior of the human beings angered the god Raphael, and countless thunderbolts and lightning slashed at the heroic warriors riding all kinds of birds of prey and dragons, and the human army suffered countless casualties......!
Tang Jie's eyes straightened when he listened to it, before this kind of thing was going to change, he must have scoffed, who took the myths and stories seriously?
But now Tang Jie can't help but believe it, because the glamorous and powerful mermaid in front of him is a descendant of the ancient gods!
"Humans have ever done such stupid things, and how did they survive the wrath of Raphael?" Tang Jie asked with a mouthful of saliva.
Octavier said, "Devany, a beautiful shepherdesss who saved the entire human ......"
Tang Jie sighed, and he suddenly remembered that when he first arrived in the magic capital of Mozambique, Agatha had told him about the origin of the magic capital.
It seems that Raphael was fascinated by Devine's beauty, and then gave birth to a daughter with this woman, and this daughter is Yuna, the goddess of magic in the human world?
"But......" Tang Jie said with a strange face, "I remember that someone seemed to tell me that Raphael, the god of the sky, came to the human world because he couldn't bear the loneliness, not because of the offense of the human world." ”
A mocking smile appeared on Octavier's lips: "Isn't it what humans are best at whitewashing their mistakes and hiding their ignorance?"
Although Tang Jie agrees with Octavier's words, he is also a member of the human race no matter what, isn't Octavil's harsh sarcasm also satirizing himself?
"Aren't you also in love with a human being......" Tang Jie muttered to himself.
Although he muttered, Tang Jie continued to ask, "Okay, humans survive by a shepherdess, but what is the unwritten agreement between humans and the Nagas?"
"After the human heroes were badly taught by the god Raphael, they no longer expected themselves to be masters of the sky, and then they turned their eyes to the sea, and the Nagas turned their eyes to the land, they were tired of the life of the sea. Inevitably, a fierce war between humanity and the mighty Naga was unprecedentedly fierce. ”
Octavier said lightly, but Tang Jie could hear the fierceness and cruelty of the earth-shattering battle thousands of years ago from her words!
"The human race won?" asked Tang Jie.
Octavir shook his head, "No, it's a lose-lose!"
Tang Jie nodded, no matter what, the fighting spirit and magic of human beings were learned from the Naga people, and the apprentice turned his face and wanted to beat the master, if he beat the master to death with a stick, it would be a bit too ridiculous, after all, the Naga people are real ancient gods.
"The Nagas were degraded in size by that battle, and they were no longer able to expand their power to the land, and the humans also lost most of their elite warships and heroes, and the entire human race was almost paralyzed by the force of expanding into the sea!" Subsequently, both the humans and the Nagas realized that if the two races continued to fight like this, neither of them would have much to gain, so they called off the war and agreed that the humans would never extend their power to the sea, and the Nagas would not be allowed to land either!"
"Wait!!" Tang Jie heard something wrong, and quickly interjected a sentence in the middle of the conversation, "It's not right!"
Octavir "looked" at Tang Jie with an indifferent face, waiting for his next words.
Tang Jie said: "According to the agreement between the two sides, the power of the human race is not allowed to extend to the sea, and the Nagas are not allowed to land on land? Then I have built a sea fortress on Alcatraz Island, what is this? What is the sea ship shuttling back and forth on the golden route? What is the Nagas who attacked Mozambique?"
A mocking smile appeared on Octavier's lips again: "This is a contract made thousands of years ago, and there is no contract or guardian to maintain, do you think it is possible for these two races to not violate the river water from now on because of a contract that does not even have a paper agreement?"
Octavier sighed leisurely: "Thousands of years is enough time to change many, many things!"
As he spoke, Octavir turned his face to "look" at Tang Jie and asked, "If it weren't for this agreement, do you think the Age of Navigation in the human world would only have a history of a few hundred years?"
Tang Jie was stunned for a moment, he flipped through the navigation charts of this world, and the human beings recorded on it had a history of only a few hundred years since they had marine activities, to be exact, less than three hundred years old, but thousands of years ago, the human world used to drive a warship and kill the Naga people in the dark, and the warships that could compete with the Nagas people at that time would not be worse than the ships on Tang Jie's hands now, right?
Could it be that it is really because of this so-called agreement that the human world forcibly controls their pace and does not expand to the ocean?
If this is the case, how powerful and terrifying must the Nagas be to make the stupid and arrogant race of humans dare not go to the sea for thousands of years?!
Tang Jie froze in place, dazed.
After Octavir explained the Nagas situation to Tang Jie, the problem in front of Tang Jie became a dilemma that made him even more headache.
If he doesn't turn to the Naga for help, God knows how long it will take for him to figure out what this undersea treasure map means?
If you ask for help from the Naga, you are simply exposing yourself to the Naga, which is equivalent to showing off your power and grabbing a yang finger at the Naga, and then shouting: "Hey, you reptiles, I'm here, come and beat me!
Tang Jie's face was full of madness, what kind of thing is this! It's good that the Naga clan doesn't come to me to trouble, and I still send it to the door by myself, my old birthday star eats arsenic, and I'm impatient?
Tang Jie suddenly remembered the classic lines of a cross talk actor he often heard before crossing over: Do I want to die, or do I want to die, or do I want to die?
