Chapter 494 Entering the Deep Sea City
"Cough, I almost suffocated just now."

"You little chubby butterfly, you're so petty."

Hastur muttered.

It was just a clone; if it had acted according to its previous temper, it would have crushed the Myriad Transformations Butterfly with ease.

"Fine, I won't argue with a little kid like you."

"Let's hurry up and get into the deep-sea city."

"I have a feeling that Cthulhu is about to awaken."

Upon hearing Hastur's words, Ye Bai also became anxious.

If Cthulhu were to awaken, it would be an unprecedented catastrophe for them.

This will have a huge impact on the Yan Kingdom.

"Everlasting Butterfly, let's speed things up. Once Cthulhu awakens, we're all doomed."

That thing is essentially a god in the present world. Its strength has reached the level of a weak god, and it will cause great damage to Earth.

Even if Blue Star reacts and sends it back, it could still cause heavy casualties in Yan Kingdom if it does anything before leaving.

This was naturally something Ye Bai did not want to see.

The Myriad Transformations Butterfly activated its clones, which shot forward like arrows released from a bow.

All the deep-sea monsters that stood in their way were smashed to pieces by the Myriad Transformation Butterfly.

Their bodies then shattered, and Ye Bai sat in the submarine as if he were on a roller coaster.

Both he and Hastur were making "ah ah ah" sounds.

The ever-changing butterfly remained inside the submarine, listening to the roars of the human and the god, and curled its lip.

"You little brat, don't think you can boss me around just because you think you're a god."

The ever-changing butterfly muttered to itself.

"They still have to be mindful of my mood."

"Now you know it's not easy to be a person, right?"

The submarine shot out like an arrow released from a bow.

Before long, a huge underwater city appeared before them.

The outer perimeter of the underwater city is like a crystal dome, helping it resist invasions from external enemies.

"Stop! Stop right there! If we crash into it, the submarine will fall apart! Aaaaaah!"

Ye Bai quickly called for a stop.

But the Butterfly of a Thousand Faces showed an embarrassed expression at this moment.

Just now, it communicated telepathically to its clone.

Because of its excessive speed, the clone had no way to counter it.

It could only watch helplessly as the submarine crashed heavily into the underwater city.

The High Priest of the Deep suddenly opened his eyes; his right eyelid was twitching.

"That's strange. What happened that made me, the High Priest of the Deep, suddenly feel uneasy?"

"Humans probably haven't caught up to this place yet."

"Lord Cthulhu is about to awaken; we cannot afford any accidents."

"Someone, go and check on the situation of the advance troops, and have them come back and report as soon as possible."

The High Priest of the Deep looked down at the altar below.

The gods are like a huge building, towering high in the sky.

Their limbs are exceptionally thick and strong.

Large numbers of living creatures were captured by the Deep Ones, and countless sharp knives were plunged directly into their prey's bodies.

The prey roared, its blood gushing out and flowing towards the blood sacrifice array below.

Even Cthulhu, which was floating in the air, was affected; its originally transparent body was stained with layers of blood red, making it look quite eerie.

"Lord Cthulhu is about to be resurrected; this is a great opportunity for us to prove ourselves."

"Once Lord Cthulhu is resurrected, the entire Earth will become our territory."

"At that time, humans will become the beasts we domesticate."

The High Priest of the Deep Ones roared to the heavens.

With the barrier set up by Lord Cthulhu, no one can pass through the crystal wall to enter this place.

Ye Bai and Hastur hugged each other, their faces showing fear.

It's about to crash.

Oh my god, we're doomed, we're really doomed.

Just as the submarine was about to crash into the barrier and shatter into pieces, a clear spatial rift appeared.

The spatial rift still carried a sliver of starlight.

"Thank goodness, my master has made a move."

"I thought my senior master had really forgotten about us."

"My senior uncle is the best."

Ye Bai said with deep emotion.

The submarine shot into the crevice like an arrow, and then crashed into the tallest building in the deep-sea city like a giant cannonball.

With a loud bang, the submarine was smashed to pieces and fell from the sky.

Numerous fragments flew out like bullets.

Some deep-sea divers were blown to the head by shrapnel before they even realized what was happening.

"Damn it, our clan's most elite warrior has perished before even dying on the battlefield."

"Investigate! Investigate thoroughly and find out exactly what happened."

A large amount of rubble fell from the building, hitting many deep-sea divers.

It was like a huge slap in the face of the Deep One High Priest.

This really made him feel quite uncomfortable.

"Ugh, I'm so angry, I'm really so angry."

"This is a direct provocation against me."

"Could it be that humans have infiltrated?"

"That shouldn't be the case. The barrier created by Cthulhu is not a god of the same level, so it cannot be broken at all."

"What went wrong?"

The High Priest of the Deep was utterly baffled.

Actually, it's not entirely its fault, after all, the Deep One priest once led the Star Sage to the Deep Sea City.

The Star Sage took the opportunity to set up many teleportation points in the Deep Sea City.

It was only because the Star Sage had torn apart the teleportation point that Ye Bai was able to rush in.

Just as the submarine was about to collide with it, Ye Bai summoned the Sky-Devouring Pelican, which crashed directly into the submarine.

"Come out, Water Rabbit, help me disguise myself."

Water rabbits possess the skill of camouflage, which they can use anywhere in the water.

It can possess Ye Bai's body and then turn him into a transparent vessel.

"The Water Rabbit's ability is practically a bug."

Ye Bai watched as the deep-diving creatures with serious expressions floated past him, none of them noticing him, and he immediately felt relieved.

"Next, let's sneak into the palace where the Deep One priests are located."

"Hastur, could you do me a favor and help me understand the language of the Deep Ones?" "You should be able to use language magic, right?"

Ye Bai asked Hastur.

"It is possible, but after it is done, I need to obtain the power of Cthulhu."

"Otherwise, I'd be working for nothing."

"My body might disintegrate, and then Cthulhu will realize that I have escaped from prison."

Hastur tried to bargain with Ye Bai.

"No problem, I can agree to any of your requests."

"However, there is one thing I hope you can do."

"That means you're telling me about the altar's weaknesses and how to drive Cthulhu back to that plane."

After hearing Ye Bai's words, Hastur hesitated for a moment before finally nodding.

"Okay, I can agree to that."

"However, you cannot betray me."

"Otherwise, I'll make sure you regret it."

"You have to believe that I have the ability."

Hastur threatened.

Then its body gradually emitted a yellow light, and Ye Bai suddenly understood the language of that world.

After Hastur finished using his language spell, his face turned deathly pale.

It turned from a yellow ping-pong ball into a white one.

"I used up most of my divine power this time, and I've lost out big time."

"No, I need to rest in your body for a while."

Hastur transformed into a stream of light and entered Ye Bai's arm.

"Phew, I'll tell you Cthulhu's weakness."

"There is a Soul Stone between Cthulhu's eyebrows."

"This is Cthulhu's weakness."

"However, to obtain this Soul Gem, we must find the High Priest of the Deep and take the scepter from his hand."

"As soon as the Soul Stone falls into your hands, Cthulhu will be sent back immediately."

Ye Bai understood Hastur's meaning; it seemed that the Soul Gem was the key to everything.

Although he was nothing more than a tiny Karami compared to Cthulhu.

However, if he could stop Cthulhu from wreaking havoc on humanity, Ye Bai would be willing to sacrifice his seventy-plus kilograms of flesh.

Some people are heavier than Mount Tai, while others are lighter than a feather. It is only through sacrifice and dedication that the Yan Kingdom has been able to survive one catastrophe after another.

When it truly comes down to self-sacrifice, Ye Bai will choose to do so.
"After all, I am the Greedy Wolf Star, the Greedy Wolf Star of the Big Dipper, and I originally had the duty to sweep away evil and falsehood and eliminate violence and maintain peace."

Ye Bai mustered his courage and resolutely followed the groups of deep-sea divers, strolling around the underwater palace.

[1. The residence of the High Priest of the Deep is located in a very inconspicuous little house in the northeast corner. The outer walls of the house are covered with seashells, and an octopus with eight legs cut off squats outside the house. Inside are the treasures collected by the High Priest of the Deep.]

[2. The High Priest of the Deep Ones believed in the principle of having multiple burrows, so instead of storing the treasures that struck it in one place, it hid them in various secluded corners. The buried treasures are shown in the image below.]

3. The High Priest of the Deep is the leader of the Deep. Killing him would leave the Deep leaderless and prevent Cthulhu's awakening.

[4. The staff wielded by the High Priest of the Deep was forged from dragon bone combined with adamantite and mithril, possessing extremely powerful Cthulhu energy. This staff can be considered his most precious treasure.]

5. Cthulhu's avatars possess divine power but lack any consciousness. This is because the High Priest of the Deep tampered with the summoning of Cthulhu through the Abyss Gate, preventing his consciousness from manifesting.

In fact, all that has been said about the intelligence system can be summarized in just two sentences.

The High Priest of the Deep must be killed by his own hand; after that, Cthulhu will naturally disappear from this world.

However, Hastur probably won't miss this opportunity, because Hastur wants to devour Cthulhu's divine power.

This clone, possessing divine power but devoid of any consciousness, was exactly what Hastur wanted.

"After Hastur absorbs Cthulhu's divine power, will he suddenly stop recognizing people?"

"Don't forget, Hastur is also on the same level as Cthulhu. It symbolizes the wind, the unrestrained wind."

Ye Bai secretly teased himself.

However, the fact that Hastur went to such great lengths to help him master the art of language proves that Hastur genuinely wanted to help him.

Ye Baiwei followed them to a magnificent palace.

Here, the High Priest of the Deep is convening a meeting with other Deepers.

"I just received some information that humanity has developed some kind of secret weapon."

"The heads of our Deepdiver warriors were blown apart."

"What do you all think we should do to handle this?"

“Trying to handle it too leniently will not do us any good.”

"If the punishment is too severe, the people of Yan will probably rebel."

"Currently, Lord Cthulhu is awakening, but it is during this period that we are destroyed. Cthulhu probably won't avenge us."

Some Deep Ones felt that the gods hadn't performed miracles in a long time, and wondered if the Deep One High Priest was monopolizing the gods' glory.

"Don't forget our origins."

"We are just outsiders in this world."

"We need to obtain the origin of this world and bring it back to our homeland."

The High Priest of the Deep decided, "Therefore, we must invade this world."

"The Cthulhu gods have given us power."

"We must protect him and give him countless blessings of faith."

Ye Bai rolled his eyes after listening to the high-sounding words of the Deep One High Priest.

Isn't this just a boss making empty promises and using psychological manipulation on his subordinates?
All the credit goes to you, while all the hard work is attributed to others.

"This meeting won't be finished anytime soon. In my experience, it will take at least another hour."

"I took advantage of the Deep One High Priest's meeting to enter its room and steal all its possessions."

"Then, take advantage of its unpreparedness and launch a surprise attack."

"As long as we don't alert the other Deep Ones, there shouldn't be any major problems."

To solve the problem of the Abyss Gate and Cthulhu, we must first deal with the High Priests of the Deep.

Ye Bai had to make a scene to anger the High Priest of the Deep Ones, and then Ye Bai would strike when the High Priest of the Deep Ones was off guard.

Once we eliminate it, closing the Abyss Gate and driving away Cthulhu will be a piece of cake.

"Ye Bai, I can sense Cthulhu's divine power; a portion of it is in the small house next door."

"Hurry up and go in, hurry up and go in."

"As long as I receive divine power, I can emerge from your body."

Ye Bai's ears were ringing from Hastur's loud voice.

Left with no other choice, Ye Bai could only follow Hastur's instructions and crawl into the small hut next to him.

The cabin looks small from the outside, but it uses space compression technology inside.

Countless precious gold and silver jewelry, gold coins, and deep-sea pearls were left lying around the room.

It's not that the High Priests of the Deep are celibate, but rather that these things are constructed from divine power.

A yellow streak of light emerged from Ye Bai's body, and Hastur pounced on it like a hungry dog.

The divine power surged into Hastur's body like a tsunami.

Its body inflated like a balloon.
"Hahaha, I have finally regained some of my divine power."
