Retired God King becomes Witch Idol Manager

This person was shameless and blunt. It had nothing to do with the great mission and glorious task mentioned by the mistress. The reason for their suicide was not concealed at all. They were a suicide squad!

"Only a pervert truly understands a pervert!"

Invincible smiled knowingly and said, "No, the one who understands you best is often your enemy. My employer hates him even more than I thought. I suddenly want to meet this idiot who dared to put a bounty on the adopted son of the Obsidian Emperor."

The headless knight, accompanied by three henchmen, tore through the spatial barrier and followed the path of the Dragon Princess as she roamed the void. This would consume a lot of soul energy, leaving Nolan on the other side in a difficult situation.

Invincible traversed the void three times in succession, each time finding only ruins and scorched earth. Catherine destroyed three dimensional capital cities under Pompey's command and killed countless obsidian soldiers.

They were getting closer and closer to Catherine.

Pfft!

After another void journey, the four landed in the water, and a wave crashed over them, leaving them stunned.

"The Prime Material Plane?"

Sensing the rich aquatic elements in the air, Fenrui was filled with doubt and surprise, her whole body soaked with sweat.

Most known prime planes have rulers, and the one guarding this place must be no ordinary powerhouse. The fact that Catherine has actually tracked her here is not good news.

305. Rotten fish and shrimp

The air here is fresh. It's probably afternoon. Looking out, the entire plane is filled with azure waters, stretching as far as the eye can see, with no land in sight.

The veil on Hei Man's face was blown away by the waves, revealing a pale face with an unexpectedly sweet appearance. Although she was an evil spirit, the beauty of her cold curves was clearly revealed under the outline of the seawater.

"Master, this is the Abyss of Oblivion!"

Bai Lu and Fen Rui'er felt a pang of anxiety upon hearing this. They had both heard of the infamous Forgotten Abyss, but this person was completely unaware of it.

This is no longer within the Obsidian Empire!

The spatial ripples stopped here, meaning Ekaterina must be somewhere in this plane.

But there was no dragon in the sky. If the Dragon Princess had followed the trail Pompey had deliberately left behind, then she must be beneath this vast ocean right now...

Invincible hesitated as he faced the unseen deep blue sea. None of the three henchmen were skilled in underwater combat, nor were they adept at fighting in the water elemental spirit's home turf. Dark spirits and earth spirits would be at a significant disadvantage in this environment.

Fenrui wiped away the water stains and said decisively, "Something's not right, something's very wrong. We need to rethink our plan."

Dragons are the rulers of the sky, and Pompey's purpose in luring Catherine here is self-evident, but the irritable dragon princess disregarded all that.

"There's no time."

Without a second thought, Wudi plunged into the water. Hei Man and Bai Lu took a deep breath and gritted their teeth as they also sank into the water.

"idiot!"

Fenrir angrily slapped the surface of the sea, creating violent waves. Then she tied up her curly hair, removed her heavy magical armor, and returned to her light underwear, allowing her to dive nimbly.

What do you mean by "playing along"? Aren't we just falling into a trap together?

Beneath the azure surface lies a teeming marine life, with fish and sea turtles everywhere, a beautiful spectacle even more vibrant than that on land.

The unusual quiet and peace made them even more cautious and vigilant.

Without wasting time, the four followed the aura left by the dragon and quickly dived deep, releasing the bursts of their souls that created ripples in the water as they gradually left the shallow sea.

An astonishing ripple of spirit energy spread outwards, causing the surrounding ferocious sharks and spearfish to scatter and flee in terror.

The deep blue waters of the mid-ocean currents are teeming with level eight and nine magical beasts, making them extremely dangerous, but they are still not enough to frighten the Chaos Apostles.

The headless horseman stopped, floating silently in the water, surveying the underwater canyon and the colorful reef basin.

The aura of emptiness around Ekaterina was severed here, and the blood oath that bound them together vanished as if it had evaporated into thin air, making it even more eerie.

Below lies a dark trench impenetrable to sunlight, with the landmass submerged by seawater on either side of the rift, consisting of ocean plains and folded mountain ridges, home to many animals and monsters.

The absence of roars and dragon breaths suggests that the situation has not worsened, but it could also mean that Catherine, who arrived earlier, has already fallen into a conspiracy.

Sound was drowned out here, and the quiet underwater atmosphere instilled a deep unease in the Dark Dancer.

Night Elves are assassins on land, but when they come to the seabed, they are as helpless as if they have been stripped naked, with nowhere to hide and no way to disguise themselves.

This was a truly terrible move...

Black Vine and White Dew were wary of their surroundings, their long hair fluttering in the sea, goosebumps rising on their smooth skin, as if they were being secretly watched by sea predators. It seemed that many ferocious monsters were lurking in this sea area.

Saints can breathe through their souls, but they cannot speak; they can only communicate through the secret art of wind whispers.

Why isn't it moving?

Fenruier gave him a mocking look, tapped the simpleton's head, and used her long legs to paddle through the water for balance.

Wudi was surprised to find that his mental energy could not scan the complex terrain below, and he could not detect anything.

"I've lost my way."

"I didn't know you were running so fast! Come with me!"

Fenruier gave the middle finger, lifted her legs and did a backflip in the water, swimming towards the rift below. She instructed the three to gather their souls and swim forward without revealing themselves.

Invincible asked in surprise, "You've been here before?"

"Of course, I have fought in many planes and made great contributions to the Holy See. I have been to the Round Table for thirty-two honor ceremonies. Where haven't I been? It was only because I was brought down by you that I was doomed."

Fenrir curled the corners of her lips and, as nimbly as a fish, circled around the headless knight's body, hooking her arms around his neck; she was quite a good swimmer.

"It's my turn to ask you, my master, what do you know about me?"

"Knowing you're quite old, you're still a spinster."

"Humph!"

Fenrui'er blushed, walked through the giant seaweed, grabbed a phosphorescent shrimp, bit off its head fiercely, and savored its sweet flesh.

In crucial moments, the [Divine Warrior] Saint seems quite reliable as a teammate.

The former elite soldier Saint War Maiden has been reduced to the head of security for the witch idols under the Chaotic Throne, fully responsible for maintaining stage order and the safety of the performers. It's kind of funny to think about.

Fenrui'er had indeed been to the Forgotten Abyss Plane before. Using the shadow of the rift, she carefully led the three of them to wander through the underwater canyon, deliberately avoiding groups of dolphins and enormous demonic whales.

"This plane has no cities or innocent civilians, only a prison!"

Fenrui suddenly stopped, parted the seaweed, and pointed to the two dim lights that shone at the end of the darkness.

The three then discovered the foam membrane in front of them. A steel gate was hidden in the cracked stone wall, guarded by two rows of high-level soul warriors. Hundreds of armed squads patrolled the crack, making it heavily guarded.

These soldiers had fin-like ears and large eyes, and their arms were either covered in fish scales or sharp spikes, making them distinctly racially distinct.

"Sea creatures?"

Invincible was stunned. He never expected that there would be intelligent beings here. Could this be the capital city of the Sea King?

Even if the main plane is rich in resources, it remains untouched by the sea and is not worth the huge price paid by many forces to compete with the sea kings who are skilled in naval warfare.

The ocean is also the cradle of life, giving birth to many sub-human races, with numerous branches that are ubiquitous.

Their reproductive capacity is as strong as that of humans, yet they find it difficult to escape the constraints of water and are not considered a threat on the dimensional battlefield.

The Deep Sea Royal Family has always maintained a lawful and neutral stance, and like the Valley of Splendor, has not joined any faction, but this does not mean that the sea creatures are weak.

On the contrary, during the millennia when the elemental spirits disappeared and the high elves were weakened, they were the true masters of the water element; wherever there was water, the sea creatures were the only ones in charge.

This is also the reason why Fenruier suggested taking a longer-term approach.

The four swam through the seaweed, quietly passed through the membrane, and stood on the gravel.

The area inside the membrane is like land, with no water resistance. It is filled with water elements, but also contains air, making it suitable for all life.

Fenrui lowered her voice and said with a headache, "So why are you in such a hurry? You rushed down here without knowing anything. We are no match for these lousy fish and shrimps here."

306. The Prison of the Forgotten Abyss

"If you don't tell me, how am I supposed to know what the Forgotten Abyss is?"

Bai Lu licked her salty lips and patiently explained, "The Forgotten Abyss is the territory of the sea race. The only purpose of this prime plane located at the edge of the world is to imprison criminals exiled from all realms. Legend has it that no one can escape from here."

"This place is isolated from the outside world. We are not allowed to contact any people or information. The jailers listen to nothing except the laws of Neptune."

Black Vine took a deep breath and shivered.

The history of the Forgotten Abyss is even older than that of the Holy Alliance; it was the place of exile for the original Lawful Order of Light.

To demonstrate the mercy of the gods, the victorious side in the war of the gods spared the death penalty for some heinous criminals, instead imprisoning them forever in an underwater prison where they would never see the light of day. This power was then given to the ruler of the sea.

Later, the Lawful Order faction split up, and the Sea Clan maintained a neutral stance, steadfastly upholding the authority bestowed upon them by the Father.

Even today, prisoners from forces such as the Holy Alliance and the Free Federation are still being sent here.

Bai Lu's face turned pale after she finished speaking, and she looked somewhat frightened.

Most of the World Tree survivors are criminals and wanted criminals who are not tolerated by the world. Many of them were captured and sent to the abyss of the past and never returned. It was a place that they feared more than death.

Now, they've essentially run into prison themselves, and even the War Maidens are somewhat uneasy.

Fenrui patted Invincible on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Look, if I had won back then, this would have been your fate: to be convicted by the Holy See's Inquisition and thrown into the Abyss of Oblivion, to be forgotten by the world."

"There's no such thing as being released after serving a full sentence?"

Fenrui shrugged, already considering leaving.

"The last time I came here, I was personally escorting a Night Demon war criminal. There is only an entrance here and no exit. I have never heard of anyone going in and coming out."

Looking thoughtfully at the three alluring henchmen's soaked bodies, Wudi said, "Why do I remember the textbooks saying that the sea creatures are vassals of the Colorful Valley?"

The three girls nodded in unison. This was the part that surprised and puzzled them the most: this was the territory of the dragons.

"The Sea Kings have dragon blood and are the most numerous descendants of the Triad Dragon Gods. Their followers are all over the sea, and their lower bloodline makes them extremely loyal to the gem dragons of the Splendid Valley."

Catherine chased Pompey into her own backyard. Was she courting death or was she fearless?

Wudi fell into deep thought, wondering if his wife had really gone inside.

Apart from the underwater dungeon, there is nowhere else in the Forgotten Abyss where Pompeii could be hidden.

"I advise you to give up on that idea. There are not enough of us to break in. If we alert the Sea King, we will be wanted by the entire Valley of Splendor. We will not only fail to get the money, but also have a bounty on our heads."

Hei Man also made his own judgment, "This is probably fake news. His Highness must have seen through it beforehand and has already left."
