After switching jobs to Navelette, the school beauty turns out to be Funina!

With a thought, Jiang Chen didn't even need to paddle; the seawater behind him automatically propelled him downwards like a torpedo.

One hundred meters.

500 meters.

One kilometer.

The surrounding light grew dimmer and dimmer until it was completely pitch black.

The water pressure was terrifyingly high; if an ordinary submarine were here, its hull would have creaked under the strain long ago.

But Jiang Chen felt as if he had returned to the womb, and even his skin became firmer and smoother.

"roar--!"

Just then, two lantern-sized red lights suddenly shone in the darkness ahead.

Immediately afterwards, a gaping maw full of sharp teeth lunged at it!

This is a level 45 Deep Sea Demon Shark, measuring a full twenty meters in length, and is one of the overlords of this sea area.

Its teeth are strong enough to crush alloy steel plates. In this deep sea, even a third-level expert would turn tail and run if he encountered it.

"Tsk, you just got off and there's already a car?"

Jiang Chen looked at the oncoming carnage and bloodshed, but instead of dodging, he stopped.

The shark, seeing that this tiny human didn't run away, grew even more ferocious. In its diet, these delicate, two-legged creatures were the most delicious treats.

However, just as its teeth were half a meter away from Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen raised his head, his vertical pupils narrowing slightly.

"Get over here."

There are only three words.

But in Magic Shark's mind, those three words were like a thunderclap!

It was an absolute suppression from the depths of the soul, as if it were facing not a person, but an ancient dragon king countless times larger than itself!

squeak--!

The shark slammed on the brakes, its massive tail thrashing wildly, abruptly halting its momentum. Because it stopped so suddenly, it even created a whirlpool in the water.

It stopped trembling in front of Jiang Chen, its once fierce eyes now incredibly docile, even a little aggrieved, like a husky that had done something wrong.

"good."

Jiang Chen reached out and patted the Demon Shark's rough, large head.

"This place is too big; swimming there would be tiring. Would you mind giving me a ride?"

The Demon Shark shook its head frantically, even revealing its broad back to signal Jiang Chen to come up.

Jiang Chen flipped himself onto the shark's back, crossed his legs, and pointed in the direction of the Abyss Rift.

"Let's go, full speed ahead. If you dare to slack off, you'll be eating shark fin rice tonight."

The demon shark shuddered, flicked its tail, and shot off like an arrow.

……

What's it like to ride a shark at high speed in the deep sea?

Jiang Chen said: It feels great, but my hairstyle is a bit messy.

Along the way, they encountered many deep-sea monsters. There were giant squid with tentacles, electric eels with electric currents, and even schools of piranhas.

But these normally ferocious monsters all obediently made way when they saw the crazed, rampaging demonic shark and the terrifying human sitting on its back.

Some even followed behind like younger brothers, forming a magnificent "deep-sea honor guard".

"Wow, this is quite a show of power."

Jiang Chen looked at the group of strangely shaped "underlings" behind him and couldn't help but sigh.

"If Xia Qingyu sees this, she'll probably say I'm cheating again."

Just then, the current in front of them suddenly became rapid.

A massive underwater canyon appeared before them. The canyon was bottomless, like a scar cleaved open by a god, emanating a chilling aura of darkness.

We've arrived at the Great Rift Valley.

"Hmm? That's...?"

Jiang Chen suddenly narrowed his eyes.

In his perception, there were several auras at the entrance of the rift valley that did not belong to deep-sea creatures.

That was... a technological fluctuation by humans?

……

The entrance to the rift valley.

Three futuristic-looking deep-sea submersibles are hovering here, their searchlight beams sweeping across the darkness.

All three deep-sea submersibles bear a golden wolf head emblem—the emblem of the famous domestic mercenary group, the "Greedy Wolf Legion."

"Boss, the detectors show that we're in the core area ahead. That level 50 Kraken is inside."

Inside the main submarine, a scarred man wearing exoskeleton armor stared at the screen, his eyes filled with greed.

"If we can get the 'Heart of the Deep' guarded by the Kraken, we can exchange it for a set of legendary equipment on the black market! That's a huge deal!"

"Be careful," came the voice of another submarine captain over the communicator.

"This place is really eerie. I felt like something was watching us just now."

"What are you afraid of? This is the latest 'Deep Sea Hunter' Type III submarine! It's equipped with high-frequency sonic cannons and depth charges! Even a level 50 lord can be blasted to smithereens!" Scarface said disdainfully.

Just then, the radar operator suddenly shouted.

"Boss! A high-speed object is approaching! Speed... Holy crap! 80 knots! What the hell is that? A torpedo?!"

"80 sections?!" Scarface was startled.

"Quickly! Activate the defensive barrier! Prepare to engage!"

Everyone stared intently at the radar screen.

The red dot is getting closer and closer...

Finally, with a huge surge of water, a dark figure emerged from the darkness.

There were no torpedoes, nor any terrifying monsters.

Only one... that looks kind of familiar?

And there was someone sitting on the shark's back?!

Scarface rubbed his eyes, thinking he was hallucinating due to his thalassophobia.

"That...that's a person? Not wearing a diving suit? Sitting on the back of a shark?"

"What he's holding... is he drinking cola?!"

That's right.

Jiang Chen was indeed holding a bottle of soda, drinking it while curiously examining the few metal lumps.

"This is what they call a deep-sea submersible? It looks pretty advanced, but it's a bit noisy," Jiang Chen commented.

Everyone in the three submarines was dumbfounded.

Where the hell did this god come from?!

This place is 3,000 meters underwater!

He's not wearing clothes... no, I mean, not wearing a protective suit, sitting on a shark, drinking a beverage, is he here for tourism?!

"Senior...?" Scarface swallowed hard, turned on the external loudspeaker, and tentatively asked.

"Who are you, esteemed figure? We are from the Greedy Wolf Legion, on a mission here. We don't know where we've offended you?"

Encountering such a strange person in a place like this, even a fool would know he's a powerful figure you can't afford to mess with. Scarface may be greedy, but he's not stupid.

Jiang Chen glanced at them and said calmly.

"Just passing by. Also, you're blocking my way."

"Yes, yes, yes! We'll make way right away!"

Scarface quickly ordered the waterway to be cleared.

However, just as Jiang Chen was about to leave, a discordant sound came from another submarine.

"Wait! Boss! Look at that bottle he's holding! That blue light... that's definitely high-grade material! And that shark is a level 45 magic shark. If we could catch it..."

That was the vice-captain's voice; he was notorious for being greedy and willing to risk his life.
