Capítulo 1064: Chapter 1065: Truly Impossible to Guard Against
In the depths of night aboard the Submarine, apart from sleeping, there’s little to do.
Only upon reaching certain stations, when the Submarine performs a personnel exchange and slowly ascends coinciding with the dawn, can one sit in the viewing deck on the first level and take in the breathtaking Star Sky.
Unfortunately, the ti for boarding and disembarking from the Submarine isn’t long, mostly just about ten or twenty minutes.
Even if the viewing deck reveals a splendid Star Sky, it’s just a fleeting mont of beauty.
Only those extrely bored and lonely would linger in the viewing deck during the night, hoping for the Submarine to ascend and get lucky enough to witness the Star Sky as if the Milky Way has fallen to Earth.
During the day, the viewing deck offers much more to see.
Following the ocean currents, one can see various marine creatures also caught in the currents.
The Submarine races alongside the Golden Spearfish, swimming from the tail to the chin of giant whales, and occasionally encounters so enormous sea turtles.
Those sea turtles are accustod to the presence of the Submarine, and they even use the high-pressure water currents generated around the Submarine to scrape off barnacles.
The ocean is likewise troubled by barnacles, including so large whales and Magic Beasts.
If those large whales or ocean Magic Beasts consider the Submarine a scratching post, it might pose so trouble for the Submarine.
Thus, an experienced Captain is needed to make judgnts based on the information from the navigation device, avoiding any large marine creature that might collide with the Submarine.
In daylight, when the Submarine ascends, one can also enjoy the scenery on the sea surface under the bright sunlight.
Visitors can see diverse shapes of islands, can see sea birds diving into the ocean to catch fish, can see dolphins half-rising to dance on the sea surface…
If luck favors, one might even see giant whales ejecting huge columns of water, sending out white sprays, creating a rainbow in the air.
Yang Yu and the others gather at the viewing deck, enjoying the natural beauty while conversing.
“Spiny Scale Lizard… in the past few years, we’ve always been hearing of their expansion.
However, it’s strange. The Spiny Scale Lizard I know are not strong, their race has dwindled to a few barren islands.
In just a few years, their expansion speed is indeed astonishing.
The rise of races has precedence. Such a sudden rise indeed leaves one astonished.”
Luo Luosi sucks on a straw from an empty juice bottle, easing her smoking urge that cos up every couple of days,
“I’ve only heard about their strength from so refugees.
Specifically, it’s hard to conclude without actual combat.
The Underground Maze you are heading to happens to be above their territory.
For a race expanding so rapidly, it’s basically impossible to enter their territory peacefully for a maze strategy.”
“Precisely because they’re occupied with warfare that we have the chance to sneak in for the strategy.
Other easy mazes might have long been occupied by adventurers.
First, introduce the specifics of the Spiny Scale Lizard, what are their characteristics and weaknesses, tell us.”
The intelligence on Spiny Scale Lizard and Wind Winged Hapi was already obtained by Yang Yu through the giant dragon’s knowledge database. He just wanted Luo Luosi to explain for others.
Luo Luosi, unaware of Yang Yu’s plan, considers Yang Yu’s request a part of her duties and begins the lengthy narration.
Until Yang Yu corrected her multiple tis did Luo Luosi realize Yang Yu knew quite a lot, and had kindly given her so work to do.
When corrected by Yang Yu, resting elbows on the table to support her chin beca Luo Luosi’s frequent pose, had it not been for lack of cigarettes, cigarette butts might have scattered all over the ground.
The Submarine broke through the sea surface again, slowly ascending, the beautiful twilight scene appeared before Yang Yu and the others.
Unknowingly, the Submarine had been sailing for a whole day.
By this ti tomorrow, Yang Yu and the others will reach an island near the Spiny Scale Lizard Territory, after which they can buy transportation tools to infiltrate undetected.
Listening to Yang Yu and Luo Luosi’s conversation, Iyas studied earnestly; suddenly, she felt sothing at the corner of her eye fell into the sea, creating ripples.
Following the feeling, Iyas turned her head and saw an island bathed in the last rays of the setting sun, reflecting a patch of black Charcoal, with new wooden houses built on scorched earth.
anwhile, the Submarine received a boarding request.
At fixed boarding stations, the Submarine Company had set up large buoys, if anyone wished to board, they just needed to inject their own Magic Power into the buoy at specific tis to be detected by the Submarine.
Afterwards, the Submarine would dispatch ticket agents to provide ticketing services in the sea.
Passengers securing tickets could enter the Submarine through special channels on the Submarine.
For the safety of the Submarine, the Submarine Company rejected certain races from boarding.
Recently, the Spiny Scale Lizard’s expansion has been hotly debated; adhering to the principle of minimizing risks and maximizing benefits, the Submarine Company naturally denied Spiny Scale Lizard from boarding.
The Submarine Company believed if the Spiny Scale Lizard continued to expand, a colossal power would inevitably form, eventually using their geographic advantage to levy protection fees, causing a substantial annual cost for the Submarine Company.
The Submarine Company believes the best Status remains where each Sea-dwelling Species governs independently.
In such a case, the Submarine’s stopover ti in each race’s territory would be brief, negating both the necessity and requirent of paying protection fees.
To avoid aiding unscrupulous forces and preventing the Spiny Scale Lizard from quickly gathering information on other sea regions, this ti, the dispatched ticket agent thoroughly scrutinized all prospective passengers, finding no presence of Spiny Scale Lizard or any other barred races; only common Fishn species appeared.
Once the tickets were sold, the ticket agent urged those with tickets to board hurriedly.
Amongst the bustling crowd, a Fishman accidentally bumped into the ticket agent, the side fin on their arm scratching the ticket agent’s arm.
The Fishman scratched their head, smiling sincerely, apologizing while offering a heavy sack of money and Potions as compensation to the ticket agent.
Seeing such a large sack of money, the ticket agent fully appreciated the sincerity of the Fishman and didn’t mind, quickly organizing the passengers to board.
When the last Fishman entered the passage, the ticket agent felt uneasy, discomfort enveloping him, soon leading to convulsions, frothing at the mouth, and fainting into the sea.
Just then, from the coral reef shadows, erged so massive creatures, all shimring as crocodile tails swayed.
The One-eyed Dragon Spiny Lizard tore apart the ticket agent’s body, pulling off all the tickets from him, tossing them to the companions behind, then swam straight towards the yet unclosed passage.
