National destiny: Starting with a coffin, building an aircraft carrier is broadcast live globally.

the next day.

The deck of Deep Sea Shadow was unusually peaceful.

After the interrogation of the Three Mist Heroes yesterday, these fish were released and each occupied a corner in the "Royal Pool." The scene of fish scales flying everywhere yesterday was completely gone, and even the most mischievous Green was lying quietly in a corner blowing bubbles.

Four pairs of eyes darted around, exchanging wary yet resigned glances.

"In the middle of the night, these four got together and whispered among themselves, I don't know what they were talking about, and then they all quieted down."

Ivan glanced at the pool and whispered warily to Renyi.

As for what kind of story might be imagined when several seafood items are put together...

I have no interest in exploring it further.

There's nowhere to run anyway, and besides, it doesn't really matter if I do run—

The full details of the Silent Channel were revealed yesterday.

That seems to be a very interesting place.

The Blue Kingdom is the sole ruler of this sea area, but they also have blind spots beyond their reach. Apart from the polar regions and the abyssal rifts, this silent waterway is a typical no-man's land.

Supernatural forces have no effect there; only the most primal laws apply.

In the animal world, it's survival of the fittest; the big fish eat the small fish.

This is why, after the incident at Rift Prison, the escaped prisoners flocked there—it was an excellent place to lay low.

The route to the Silent Channel is also quite interesting.

It's not enough to just dive to a certain depth; the underwater landscape is intricate and complex, much like a maze.

To get there, you must start walking from the sea in the direction of sunrise until you see the large area of ​​"red devil" algae growing on the sea surface.

After diving vertically down to about a kilometer in the center of the algae, you'll find a circular trench. Only by passing through that trench can you truly enter the Silent Channel.

Why go through such a complicated roundabout way, taking this dangerous no-man's-land?

The reason is also very simple.

Carlos, who calls himself the "Siren Prince" who was deprived of power, witnessed the power of Renyi and others, and was greatly aware of the crisis due to the defection of the Three Heroes of the Mist.

To demonstrate his extraordinary value, he dropped a bombshell—

A secret passage.

The Silent Channel conceals a hidden smuggling route that can cleverly bypass the four lines of defense of the Deep Blue Kingdom and directly enter the heavily guarded royal city!

Besides.

It was still a place where all sorts of strange and exotic fish mingled, and a black market for trading items with supernatural powers.

Carlos made a solemn vow:

The guy he knew had a way to disguise anyone as a fishman and let them move around the Blue Kingdom undetected.

I was smitten.

Knocking on doors is too troublesome. When you're not confident about a direct confrontation, going through the back door makes it easier to assess whether it's worth taking action.

After all, it's underwater.

These fish-men, mermaids, or siren... whatever they may be, they're the local bullies.

【Deep Sea Shadow】The sails of the ship, which resembles a giant centipede, are billowing, and the Medusa figurehead cuts through the white waves.

Except for Sita, who was feeling sleepy, they all gathered on the deck.

He leaned casually against the ship's side, holding a bare "Pudu" (a type of Buddhist prayer tablet) in his hand, lost in thought, seemingly pondering something.

Xiao Jiu now has a new place to go.

That's an arbitrary hood, thick, spacious, and warm.

For Renyi, there's no risk of baldness or suffocation, so he just lets it be.

"There's something going on at the 12 o'clock direction."

A dark shape appeared on the sea ahead.

Nathan, standing next to the figurehead, blew the ash out of the gun barrel.

Klaus raised his binoculars and looked:

Through the telescope, a large blue clam shell was slowly drifting on the sea, and sitting on it was a green mermaid with three vertical rows of spikes on her back. Her appearance was fairly normal...

If you ignore the mohawk with its head full of sharp, needle-like spikes.

He held a thick, white fishbone in his hand, occasionally wading through the water, looking quite relaxed and content.

[Wow, this feels like a nationwide survival show at sea—a fishman version...]

[Upstairs, do you want to read what you're saying aloud? Fishman's Ocean Survival?]

[Start with a clam, get all your equipment by fishing]

[...Don't be honest, these two skills of paddling are strikingly similar to the righteous master in the game who, while clinging to his coffin lid, uses a thigh bone to row a boat!]

[Hahaha, what kind of blunt truth are you spouting?!]

Blue leaned halfway out, his eyes widening:

"That troublemaker Jack?! I used to be his 'roommate.' I was on the second floor, and he was on the third. He had a terrible temper; he'd poke me with his thorns at the slightest disagreement!"

"Oh?"

Ren Yi didn't intend to look closely and directly told Ivan,

"Want to stretch your muscles a bit?"

Ivan had been eagerly anticipating it for a long time.

Upon hearing the leader's order, he immediately made a three-meter dive into the sea.

The troublemaker Jack felt he was really lucky.

He was originally sentenced to twenty years for robbing an underwater station, but he managed to escape after only two years!

To avoid being tracked by the guards, they drifted at sea for a while until they reached a quiet channel...

Let's go to the Fish Head Bar first and have a free drink.

Steal a few more fish, then head to that damned mermaid shop and buy a Transformation Potion—

Ok?

Jack the Spiky was very alert; he reversed the fishbone in his hand, and the sharp edge plunged fiercely into the bottom of the clam.

However, he did not hit anything.

Instead, a gleaming axe emerged first.

Next up was Ivan, like a great white shark, who, after cleaving through the spikes head-on, charged straight at the sharp-headed Jack.

"Aww!"

Jack screamed, dodged Ivan's axe, and tried to escape by slicing through the sea with the split fishbone.

How can that be?

The shadowy figure in the deep sea is approaching.

"Buzz—"

Without needing to utter a sound, Klaus's "Newton" emitted a buzzing sound and transformed into a long chain with grippers.

The metal claw accurately hits the target.

After firmly gripping the slightly open gap of the giant clam, Klaus braced himself against the ship's side and forcibly pulled Jack and the giant clam together.

"Nathan!"

"Bang."

Nathan, who was voice-controlled, raised his hand and fired a shot.

The specially designed bullet struck the exposed water inlet of the giant clam. The shot hit the perfect spot, preventing the clam from sinking into the sea, leaving it stunned and without damaging the material.

Nod in satisfaction.

In that half-second, Ivan leaped high from the sea and slammed his axe into the face of the troublesome Jack.

The unfortunate escapee not only broke several of his mohawks, but was also kicked right off a clam shell.

at the same time.

Klaus started the winch and quickly dragged the heavy blue clam shell to the side of the boat. With a flash of green light in his hand, the two shells separated.

[Decomposable target detected: mutated flat-headed deep-sea mussel carcass]

"break down."

[Decomposition successful]

[You have obtained: 68 fresh mutated mussel meats (days 2), 2 thick clam shells, 6 strong biological fascia, 1 mantle, and 1 respiratory valve gill]

[Already stored in warehouse]

The entire process took less than two minutes, demonstrating excellent teamwork, and was both forceful and efficient.
