Why can't humans do it too?

Chapter 192 The Ability of Mutation

Treat your allies to the best food and make them as comfortable as possible.

In short, it's about making allies feel like they've come home.

The blue-haired marine creature's tiny brain had already fully comprehended everything.

"Then I'll invite everyone else to come and play together?"

As she spoke, Jasmine made a ring with one hand and kept poking around inside it with the other finger... She had made it very clear what she meant by "playing".

Feeling good means being happy, and you should treat your allies with happiness. She truly is a qualified ally!

The blue-haired marine species is proud of itself.

"No need for thanks at all!!"

Seeing that the marine creature was about to summon the fish that were swimming in the water, Suer quickly raised his voice to stop it.

"Huh? You don't need it?" Jasmine looked troubled. "But we don't have anything else to offer our allies..."

"Hosting allies is not the same as entertaining prostitutes! Remember that!"

"Don't the land-dwelling guys like this?"

I absolutely dislike it!

"Oh~", the blue-haired sea creature responded once again as if it had just realized something, and who knows what strange thing had come up with in its little head this time.

They're categorized as land-dwelling creatures. While such things did exist in my past life… *cough*, surely they don't exist in this world? Probably not, right?

As a sea creature summoned by the Queen, Leila was not overly careless and arrived at Jasmine's cave quickly, effectively relieving Suer's headaches caused by dealing with the endless stream of idiotic remarks from this foolish Queen.

The saying "They can't stop talking about vulgar things" perfectly describes marine species.

"Aha~~, Jasmine~"

"Aha~~~, Leila~, you're here~"

"Hehehe~, yeah, yeah, what's up~"

They didn't seem like subjects summoned by the Queen at all; the relationship between these two marine creatures was more like that of very close friends. From this perspective, the Queen's status was not important to the marine creatures.

Uninterested in delving into the social customs of this marine species, Suer was more concerned with the existence of this marine creature named Leila, whom he was carefully examining.

Her light green hair was very thick, and it swayed with the flow of water, spreading behind her. Her fair skin was flawless, and she wore strings of golden jewelry and pearls on her upper body.

"What? Does Mr. Monkey like this?"

“…It’s not what you think,” Su’er casually explained to Xinke, who had walked up to her, her brows furrowed.

"...What's wrong with this marine creature?" Realizing that Suer wasn't joking, Xinke raised her head and gestured with her eyes to Jibril, who was floating in the water observing the decorations on Jasmine Cave, while bending her palm.

"Ah, no, no," Su'er suddenly realized that her words might have caused some misunderstanding with Xin Ke, and quickly waved her hand in denial. For a moment, she didn't know how to explain, so after thinking for a while, she simply asked Leila, "Have we met somewhere before?"

It was a fairly standard old-fashioned pickup line, but what Sue really wanted to ask was something else entirely—had you ever eaten my flesh and blood?

It wasn't convenient to talk about this with Xinke and the others when outsiders were present. Even though the sea creatures behaved like idiots in every way, Suer still wouldn't do anything that might leave hidden dangers. She could only hint at it indirectly in other ways.

In fact, when the group first arrived at this underwater world, he felt a sense of familiarity among the marine species that came to greet them, just like the feeling he had when he met the vampire monster that had mutated from the one that had devoured his flesh.

It was a tiny point of light, not much larger than a seashell, existing in the ocean of consciousness. Even if it hadn't been so close, Suer wouldn't have noticed its existence in his own sea of ​​consciousness. He hadn't noticed it at all when he was on the surface of the sea.

But now it's completely different. After Suer became aware of its existence, even though he had returned to the abandoned ruins where he had lived on land for more than two years, he could still detect it—the pale green-haired sea creature in front of him.

The one that Suer sensed among those mixed-up marine species was her.

Invisible threads existed between them. Unlike the brutal and forceful control over Asano Shirasu's consciousness and body that he had previously exerted, Suer now felt more like an... bystander.

An observer with the ability to change the script, the so-called script being the mind of this sea creature, yet he can jump to the forefront at any time. This connection is far more robust than the previous one with Asano Shirasu; space and distance are no longer obstacles.

Suer could clearly feel that her abilities were indeed different from the past. At this moment, he was like a hidden hand behind the scenes, subtly controlling the subconscious of this sea creature, which was also the source of her goodwill towards several people.

"Hmm~~~, it seems~~~ yes, right?" Leila, a sea creature, swam around Suer and Xinke a few times before slowly answering, swaying her fishtail.

The thin membrane separating the seawater from the air aroused her strong curiosity. However, several times she tried to touch the membrane and put her hand through it, but she instinctively withdrew her hand as if to resist.

"Let me think~", the sea creature with light green hair said, her index finger resting on her chin as she pondered, digging into her small brain. "It should be in the strait, right? I saw you guys fall into the sea when I went there before~"

Strait?

Inspiration surged through him like an electric current. There was only one place in this world that was collectively referred to as the Strait by all races. In an instant, Suer recalled the moment he jumped into the sea with Xinke in his arms, and the shadowy figure swimming upwards from the deep, dark, bottomless ocean—it was you!

He kept comparing this marine creature with the image stored in his mind. The pale green cat's long hair, constantly undulating in the water, did indeed resemble a twisted monster like a snake ball in the dark.

So, was it an unknown demon species or a marine species at that time?

Terrified, he immediately slashed his arm, hoping the blood would slow down the monster's ascent.

For a moment, Suer was at a loss for words. He found it difficult to judge whether the demon species or the sea creatures he had encountered were better. Based on the information he had so far, falling into the hands of the sea creatures did not seem like a good thing.

Chapter 193 Mang Jir

"Oh~~~, I didn't expect you two had met before," Jasmine said curiously, slapping her tail.

"Hmm~, I heard it was very noisy up there, so I went up to take a look out of curiosity. I didn't expect that most of the strait had collapsed~", Leila recalled, while spreading her arms wide to make a big circle to strengthen her persuasiveness.

As one of the more curious members of the marine species, Leila has a strong curiosity about everything on land, unlike her peers who are limited to capturing males. She can roam anywhere from the ocean to the edge of the land without any problem, and this is exactly the well-informed person that Suer and his group are looking for.

"A dangerous place? Of course, it's where the land creatures fight the fiercest!" The sea creature answered without hesitation after hearing Suer repeat the question.

"Uh, besides those places? Are there any other places you or your friends are curious about but have never been able to go to? Or some island with a long history that hides secrets?" Suer tried his best to describe the question simply, and perhaps because of the blood he had on her, Leila understood the question without any difficulty.

"A secret... I don't think there's anything special about it?" Leila pondered as she easily slapped her head with her fishtail. "Speaking of which, I did see some interesting stories on Leila's channel when I was bored before. They were about things that happened before our creator fell asleep."

"After creating us, the Creator soon got bored again. According to the book, He went to the sea with great enthusiasm, saying He wanted to find His kin to play with. But not long after, He ran back crying... Ah, found them~"

While recalling the stories she had read, Leila searched through Jasmine's palace as if she were at home, eventually finding the storybook she had read years ago among the piles of 'trash' in a corner.

"You bunch of idiots actually managed to write a book?!"

This was a shock to Jibril.

In her mind, they were a bunch of inferior races who only knew how to mate, yet they were doing something as noble as recording history?! Unbelievable!

"It's less like writing a book and more like a diary where I write down whatever comes to mind. The only difference is that it records the history of marine species. Hmm... as expected, it's just some fun history." Xin Ke, who was also curious about the books about marine species, went over to observe and then came to a conclusion.

This 'diary' is a record of marks on a smooth seashell. The words are haphazardly written, crooked and disorderly, which is quite in line with the impression of a marine species.

"You two should tone it down a bit, you're still in front of other people..." Suer offered a token word of advice. From what he saw, the two marine creatures didn't seem embarrassed or angry at being commented on like that by Xinke and Jibril. Instead, they just grinned foolishly with adorable expressions.

“Look, the island where God’s kin lived is also recorded here. When I first saw it, I ventured there out of curiosity, but I found nothing. I don’t know if it’s because God’s kin have already left,” Leila said with regret, pointing out a string of words on the seashell.

"So, could it be here?" Suer looked up at Xinke and Jibril. To be honest, it was just a matter of luck in the vast ocean, and this information seemed to be the most likely place to find the answer.

The answer given by Okan, the God of Forging, was actually a member of His own kind—doesn't that solve many of the questions?

The only problem is that Okan's kin doesn't seem very friendly. It's a bit scary that a god of the sea-dwelling species, a divine species, has returned crying... Or is that why Okan's words are ambiguous?

"Let's go take a look first," Xin Ke decided. "Besides, He might not even be there anymore, right?"

After all, Leila hadn't noticed anything when she went to play before.

--------------

With specific directions provided by Galella, a sea creature who had been there before, the group of Suer quickly arrived at the island where the sea creature's god had once suffered a crushing defeat.

Ignoring the desperate pleas of the two marine creatures, he threw them back, leaving only Suer and his two companions on the island.

Just as ordinary as it appears, this small island was actually a place that Suer and his two companions had searched before. In the eastern sea far from the mainland, these islands, which were relatively densely distributed, were even the focus of their search, but they found nothing at the time.

"Shall we use my method?" Jibril looked at the small island below, then at several large islands not far from it. "If it still exists after the bombardment, it's where that divine being resides; otherwise, it means He has already left."

It was rare for this Skywing to speak with a questioning tone, which showed that she was a god-like being that could not be ignored. Even though she had accomplished the feat of challenging and killing Dragon Spirits, Fantasy Spirits, and Giants on her own, Jibril did not show any arrogance. As the God of War's favorite familiar, she was well aware of the gap between herself and the gods.

"Wouldn't that be seen as a provocation? We didn't come here looking for a fight," this time he wasn't joking, but after seriously considering it, Suer still refused.

“While that is certainly true, how could an activated deity have no signs of existence at all?” Xin Ke bit her lower lip, also struggling with whether or not to do as Jibril suggested.

Judging from the records of the sea-dwelling species, it was undoubtedly a very stable deity that had already been activated, and definitely not one of those inactive deities that had never possessed life. Just from the fact that the sea-dwelling deity later repeatedly and tirelessly harassed it many times, it can be seen that this unknown deity was very low-key, neither creating its own followers nor running around.

"Ugh! This is so annoying! Anyway, this is fine!"

This internal struggle didn't last long; given Jibril's personality, she quickly and decisively made a decision.

Raising her hand to gather the spirits was a move Jibril was most familiar with.

“If He really gets angry, I can move both of you away, so let’s do it my way now!”

Sky strike!

boom! ! !

The moment the pure white energy beam fell, an invisible wave spread out, and Su Er felt his entire body involuntarily tense up, even his breath was choked.

He is still here!

Chapter 194 The Art of Grinding Water

It's hard to imagine that even after multiple careful inspections, and even after being personally examined by Shinko, one of the most intelligent beings in the world, and Jibril, a member of the Skywing race, who both concluded that there was nothing unusual about the place, it actually harbored a secret.

The seawater surrounding the island evaporated in an instant, and the overflowing energy was almost tangible. If Suer hadn't been protected immediately, he would have been annihilated without a trace when the first wave of impact arrived.

After the seawater was no longer an obstacle, the three people who had evacuated and were floating in mid-air saw the spherical object embedded at the base of the island. Most of it was still buried in the soil and its full appearance could not be seen. The pressure that was causing Suer so much pain was emanating from this object.
