Chapter 121: Beneath the Sea

Royer doesn't teleport, Thor doesn't have coordinates outside the palace, and the two of them honestly fly over from the sky.

Fortunately, the flight speed of the third-order wizards was not slow, and the Palace of the Eternal Night was also close to the coast, so they quickly saw the sea.

The last time he went to the beach with Alfonso, Thor didn't see the red sea trees, but this time the weather was sunny, and it happened to be at low tide, and as far as the eye could see, the seaside was a dazzling red.

The red leaves resemble the palms of the hands, densely overlapped together. Scattered black-brown trunks were exposed, and the skin was as bright as if it had been oiled.

Dense forests of the Red Sea cover almost the entire surface of the offshore sea, and the nearby waters are dyed red by fallen leaves.

Royer flew in front and rushed headfirst down into the sea under the trees.

Thor followed closely behind, following into the water in a beautiful pose.

It is very difficult to swim under the Red Sea trees. The Red Sea (the name of this sea) is not as wide as other seas, and it is full of intertwined roots of the Red Sea, and they are not yet indestructible.

But fortunately, even if the two of them move in the seawater, their movements are very sensitive and fast, as if they were wandering in the sky before.

Along the way, Royer introduces Thor to the Red Sea Tree, a child he has carefully nurtured.

Although this child was not born to him, he definitely raised it.

"The leaves of the Red Sea tree absorb nutrients in the air, and the trunk is an important part of the fight against pollution."

The two of them dived all the way, and the light was getting darker and darker.

Although he knew that Thor's eyesight would not be greatly affected in this environment, in order to show off, Royer enthusiastically lit up the nearby sea.

"This is where the red sea trees store pollution." Royer led Thor close to the thigh-thick root of a tree, where four or five man's heads bore stems.

It is somewhat similar to the sweet potatoes in the ground, but the appearance is quite smooth.

Royer didn't care to crush one of the stems, revealing the dark brown underbelly inside.

Thor thought that Alfonso seemed to have thrown this thing into the deep pool of the sea a few days ago, leading to the sick merfolk hiding inside.

Thor took one too, crushed it in half, and carefully examined the composition of the stem with his hands.

He found that the less active Kuroshio current pollution was hidden in the fibers of the stems.

But after he crushed the stems, the Kuroshio pollution inside was quickly reactivated.

Sure enough, the red sea tree can only absorb and store pollution, and it is completely untreatable.

But even so, they used their rhizomes to temporarily store the pollution in the seawater, and they were able to make life normal for the coastal residents.

"Royer," Thor asked Royer, who was staring at him, "Do you know the Black Sea Tree?" ”

Royer wasn't surprised at all, and Thor was aware of the existence of the Black Sea Tree.

The fact that the Inquisition Tribunal does not openly enter the Borderlands does not mean that they are ignorant of the information there.

In fact, it turns out that the third-order wizards of the Borderlands are their biggest source.

"Of course I know, the wizard family that advocated keeping the Black Sea Tree in the first place was decided by me." Royer had a smug smile on his face, as if he was not showing off the whole family of murderers, but the whole family of people.

Thor couldn't help but glance at Royer.

Third-order wizards live for a long time, and many things that sound like historical biographies actually happened to the people in front of them.

"Black sea trees are more efficient at absorbing pollution and can also treat pollution to a certain extent. Didn't you try to combine the best of the Red Sea Tree with the Black Sea Tree? ”

Species are hybridized, each taking its own strengths.

It's tough, but it's worth a try for Neflett's future.

The smile on Royer's face faded a little, "Do you think we haven't thought about it?" The point is that the Black Sea Tree and the Red Sea Tree are completely incompatible in several core characteristics, and there is no way to make the two species combine. Even as soon as the Black Sea Tree appears, the Red Sea Tree will be robbed of nutrients and die in large numbers. ”

Although Royer is arrogant and flamboyant, he still takes his experiments very seriously.

"In order to ensure the efficiency of the Red Sea Tree in absorbing pollution, we would not even allow the Black Sea Tree to be present in Neflett, and if it were not for the preservation of species diversity, we would not even allow the Black Sea Tree Source to remain in the Borderlands."

Royer suddenly stared at Thor, "Justin, the original conservator of the Black Sea Tree Source, is dead. Herbert, who had killed him, also died at the hands of you. The only Black Sea tree source that exists should be in your hands, right? ”

Saul acquiesced.

Royer shrugged, making this movement in the sea particularly inconspicuous, "In your hands, in your hands, in your hands." As long as you don't bring it to Neflett, I won't take the lead in hunting you down. ”

Thor looked calm, "I still know the story of the Red Sea Tree and the Black Sea Tree. ”

Seeing Thor with a sincere face, Royer was quite happy in his heart, and rarely mentioned the mermaid, "Aren't you interested in mermaids?" I'll show you that they don't usually float into shallow water except for feeding. ”

He turned and swam deeper into the sea, where the roots of the Red Sea trees gradually changed from dense to sparse, but never cut off.

Thor hurriedly followed Royer, but his face was a little stiff.

Because he suddenly remembered that the little algae living on the back of his neck had just devoured part of the essence of the Black Sea Tree and the Inverted Tree.

Because of the rush of time, Thor has not yet tested the small algae that can tie himself into a dead knot, and now what ability does he have.

In case the small algae that is fused with the Black Sea Tree, it also has the ability to make the Red Sea Tree die by its own destruction......

Will he also usher in the endless pursuit of the tribunal?

Thor felt a chill down his spine, and couldn't help but touch the back of his head, then pressed it on the back of his neck.

Fortunately, although Xiaozao has no brains, he is obedient, and he will not come out if he is not allowed to come out.

After instructing Xiaozao, Thor relaxed slightly, regained his calm expression, and continued to sink with Royer.

Soon, Thor sees merfolk living in the deep sea.

Or it can't be said to live, it should be called barely alive.

Where the bottom of the sea and the roots of the trees intersect, there are a large number of mermaids. They were all scrawny, the scales on their tails were mottled and peeling, and their bodies were covered in wounds.

Some of these wounds are still oozing blood, and some are already rotting. If it weren't for the Red Sea Tree and the Wizard's tactics to keep out the predators at the bottom of the sea, the smell of blood would have attracted a large number of carnivorous beasts.

The mermaid clan is in a comfortable environment deliberately created by wizards, and it is difficult to continue.

Thor saw that the mermaids on the seabed were stacked on top of each other, like fallen leaves that fall to the ground in autumn and then pile up together.

No one cares how a leaf feels.

"It's winter, the sea temperature is low, and when spring comes, you can come and have a look." Royer smiled maliciously, "Large breeding site. ”

Saul was noncommittal, it wasn't certain that he wasn't there in the spring, and even if he was, he wasn't interested in that.

Royer stopped and didn't continue near the seabed, but Thor was still descending, and Royer didn't stop him.

Because there were merfolk lying underneath, Thor found a spot - a stone with algae on the surface of it.

But as soon as he fell, he noticed that something was wrong.

Feedback from psychic forces told him that it was not a stone covered in algae, but a mermaid corpse that had been dead for an unknown amount of time.

Thor was silent for a moment, and the magic centered on him, spreading out in all directions, sweeping away all the merfolk lying nearby.

Revealing the dense bones underneath.

I don't know how long the bones of a mermaid have been dead.
