Unlike the beach she had been to before, this time Ariel and her party were diving into the deep sea.

Although the group couldn't feel the pressure around them because they swallowed Abu's hot forehead, no, because they swallowed the pill, they could still see how deep they had dived from the changing creatures.

Soon, Muromi grabbed a shell-like object in his hand and stretched it out to Ariel.

"Hey, there are shells here?" said Ariel. The shell suddenly opened, and more than a dozen legs stretched out from it at once.

"Isn't this a deep-sea lice?" "By the way, its English name ......"

"Don't make up your English, take it for me. ”

Along the way, Ariel also encounters all kinds of creatures, such as a huge electric eel, a fish with bones all over her body, and so on.

However, Hua Ling, who saw this, had already fainted.

When you're in the deep sea, you can't see anything.

When her feet felt like they were touching the ground, Ariel knew she had reached the bottom of the sea.

But.

It's so dark here, it's hard to even walk, and it's a treasure trove of wool.

"Don't worry, we'll just walk hand in hand later. "Muromi's eyes suddenly emitted two powerful beams of light like a flashlight, illuminating the bottom of the sea.

Sure enough, mermaids aren't ordinary guys.

So everyone began to grope forward one by one like an eagle catching a chicken.

However, just because it's under the sea doesn't mean there's nothing at all.

"Now, Ariel, don't scare me. Hua Ling's frightened voice came from the darkness.

"What? I'm fine, what are you doing to scare you. ”

"Who was that just now...... Ahh ”

"What's wrong, Hua Ling?" because they couldn't see anything, so everyone could only ask.

"Something hugged me, ahhhh ”

Hua Ling waved her hands in a panic, knowing that she didn't stop until she touched the thing that was holding her.

"It's Cher. Scared the hell out of me. Don't worry, I'll protect you. ”

Sure enough, although it's three nothings, I'm still scared.

Xue'er hummed softly, and then continued to hug Hua Ling.

I always feel that Hua Ling has become brave after that.

Sure enough, Hua Ling is also a strange guy.

―――――――――――――――― Cutting ――――――――――――――――――――

After a period of exploration, everyone finally arrived at their destination.

In the light of Muromi's flashlight, it looks like a huge stone.

"This. It doesn't look like a treasure by any means. Ariel said.

"But that's what the map says. Murumi stepped forward and touched the slate. "Anyway, there are some raised rocks here. ”

With Muromi's flashlight, Ariel found a nine-square-shaped pattern on the rock. There are several raised stones on it.

"What is this? Because it was at the bottom of the sea, Hua Ling walked to the rock with a shaky walk, and then pressed down on one of the bulges.

"Hey, don't press it. ”

However, unlike the expected undersea earthquake or the appearance of some terrible monster, Hua Ling pressed a stone, only to have some stones pop up in other places.

"Hehehe, it feels so fun. Anne also went up curiously and pressed it, and then some of the stones sank, and some of them came out.

"I kind of get it. Ariel looked at the stone and said, "I guess this is the switch for that treasure." Push down all these stones, or pop them up. ”

I feel that this mechanism is no different from the puzzle game of my own world, and eighty percent of it is Alice's ghost again.

"But if you press one piece of this thing, something else will pop up. Hua Ling tried in vain to press back what came out with both hands, but found that if it was two hands, she couldn't press it down.

Is it really big for such an old thing to come with touch sensitivity?

"So, this thing is a test of your intelligence and memory. Ariel said.

So Hua Ling was very interested.

But no matter how she looks at it, it looks like she is playing whack-a-mole rather than a puzzle game.

"Hehehe, why don't you let me try?" Anne walked over, but she almost got stuck in the middle of the sea because of the buoyancy of the seabed.

Please, don't learn from the star.

Anne, whose intelligence was obviously much higher than Hua Ling's, quickly pressed down a lot of stones. In the end, only the middle piece remains.

Succeeded? No.

When Anne happily pressed the last stone, there was nothing around that suddenly opened the door or anything. Instead, some stones came out of the other squares in a mess.

Anne's smile stiffened.

"Forget it, I'll give it a try. Although she was skeptical that Anne hadn't succeeded, Ariel decided to give it a try herself.

But it seems that since Anne pressed the stone just now and more stones appeared, this thing has become more complicated. Sometimes, even if you want to go back, it's not the same as before.

After all the torture, Ariel only ended up in the same situation as Anne, with a stone sticking out in the middle. Everything else sinks.

How do you feel that this thing is unsolvable?

"Actually. My friend Livia also gave up because of this thing. Muromi said. "It's like she's been studying here for 20 years, but she still hasn't figured it out. ”

"20 years......

It's good to live a long time.

After fiddling around a little more, but still to no avail, Ariel angrily punched the bulging stone.

But this time.

With a "snap", the stone shattered in half.

The crowd "......"

"Ariel. Hua Ling looked at the one that had broken because of the stone with some concern. A hole appeared inside.

"I always felt like something was wrong, so let's go. ”

"Well, I think I broke this thing. ”

Obviously, it's okay to beat and beat before, why did you blow up in the end.

Could it be that the second lady element in her body has awakened?

"Speaking of Ariel. A glowing titanium eye leaned into the hole and said, "Anyway, there's a big red character in this." ”

"What's the word?"

"It seems to be...... Press the word. As he spoke, Murumi put his right hand in.

There was another soft "poof", followed by a violent grinding sound of the huge rock.

A huge blue magic array appeared at everyone's feet, and the attraction like a black hole drew everyone towards the center of the array.

Because it was good to be able to stand firm underwater, everyone was directly sucked into a black hole in the center of the magic array.

"See how you have lived for so many years............!
