Seabed Research Base

The sea beast was also pitiful, picking a fight with the wrong person, none other than Andre, that blockhead. Despite its impressive size, Andre's barrage of electric punches and flying kicks left it in a truly miserable state.

One of its horns was knocked off, its thick limbs were twisted into bizarre shapes, and its hard scales were falling off in droves. To top it off, its left eye socket was swollen like a spinning top, with blood spreading far and wide. It wanted to escape but couldn't, whimpering in misery, having lost all its previous ferocity.

Andre, now in berserker mode, grabbed the sea beast's tail fins and spun it around non-stop, like he was hopped up on something. He was a respectable person, and the thing he couldn't stand the most was being provoked by others... uh... other beasts.

Gus looked at Hua Zhen with guilt and said, "I... I'm sorry, Your Highness, it was my negligence that I couldn't keep an eye on him~"

"Quickly get that idiot back here!" Hua Zhen, having re-erected the barrier, heaved his chest up and down, gritting his teeth as he whispered.

"I'll go right away, Your Highness!" Gus, afraid of getting caught in the crossfire, said and quickly swam towards Andre, who was about to go for the throat.

After the little interlude, Hua Zhen learned his lesson, letting Andre swim in front, while he and Gus hung back behind him, to prevent this guy from causing any more trouble.

Andre was paddling diligently, his expression cold and indifferent. He always had this expression after being scolded by Hua Zhen.

As the saying goes, with the blue sky above and the earth below, Lie Ge was born without a temper. I don't get angry when others scold me, and I'll just do what I want afterwards, a complete tough guy.

"Oh, my head~~" Hua Zhen clutched his chest. "It's only because we're outside. If we were at home, I'd skin him alive!"

Gus sighed and comforted him, "Your Highness, don't be angry. A Lie has been like this for more than a day or two. Getting angry is bad for your health~"

"Keep an eye on him later, don't let him mess with anything. If the energy storage device is poked and blown up by him in advance..."

"Your Highness, rest assured, this time I guarantee to keep a close eye on him!"

Andre, hearing this, snorted disdainfully, a string of bubbles escaping from his nose...

After continuing to descend for a while, Hua Zhen suddenly made a soft sound, because in this seabed world that should have been absolutely dark, a glimmer of light actually appeared. The three maintained their speed, and the location of the light source was reached in an instant.

In an instant, they seemed to have arrived in another world, filled with colorful and breathtaking beauty.

There was a different kind of beauty here than in space, a beauty that was breathtaking and intoxicating. Everywhere was filled with flowing light, and coral-like plants emitted a soft glow, reflecting the color of the seawater like the evening glow. Tens of thousands of small fish gathered together and swam with the current, like flocks of birds flying in the sky.

The deep-sea vegetation was large and thick, crisscrossing like dragons coiling around each other. The gnarled branches intertwined with the seabed's mountains, rocks, and cliffs. Many strange-shaped seabed creatures chased and frolicked below, bizarre and fantastical, giving people a dreamlike illusion.

Suddenly, the surrounding sea area became empty again. The fish that were still swimming happily scattered, and the playful seabed creatures hid in the gaps between the branches.

"Hmm?" Hua Zhen frowned and cast his gaze in a certain direction.

"Rumble..."

In the distant sea area, a huge sea beast, like a majestic mountain range, was slowly swimming over. Wherever it passed, the seabed vegetation was broken and intertwined, like the traces left by a giant python crawling through the grass. The mountains, rocks, and cliffs shot out in all directions along its path, with a breathtaking momentum.

This sea beast looked very fantastical, with its head wrapped in a circle of ferocious exoskeleton, thick limbs with webs, two sharp bone spurs protruding from the elbow, sharp fangs, a slender tail, and a huge body impacting the seawater, making a thunderous sound. The one that was ravaged by Andre before could not be compared with it in terms of size.

It was obvious that it was the most ferocious predator in this sea area, and other creatures consciously avoided it because of this. The crisscrossing scars were its proud badges, and as usual, it was patrolling its territory.

Soon, the figures of Hua Zhen and the other two appeared in its eyes. When it saw these three strange creatures with wings, it actually showed an incredible look like a human.

The sea beast suddenly accelerated, its webbed limbs propelling the seawater, and in just a few strokes, it came to a stop near them. It moved an eyeball the size of a motorhome in front of the three of them, and after looking at them for a while, a trace of boredom flashed in its eyes, and it swung its long tail and swam elsewhere.

Gus looked at Andre with a small expression, while Andre squinted at Hua Zhen expressionlessly.

"Humph!" Hua Zhen snorted coldly and said, "Enough time has been wasted. According to the location given by Ya Erman, the base is on the seabed three kilometers below. Continue to descend!"

As everyone knows, the seabed refers to the crustal surface that constitutes the oceanic plate. It is very similar to land topography, with mountains and valleys, gentle slopes and plains, as well as gullies and ridges. The Felinton Super Gene research base is built on a vast plain on the seabed.

From a distance, one can see a massive structure, mainly black, blending in with the surrounding scenery. Several kilometers around it, there is a circle of uniquely shaped round platform instruments. The light emitted from the center of the round platforms combines to form a hemispherical shield, blocking the heavy seawater.

After passing through the shield, Hua Zhen removed the dark energy barrier, took a deep breath, and was about to order the start of the operation when the corner of his eye caught Andre striking a Terminator pose. His face couldn't help but darken. "Stop posing, get up and put your clothes on!"

"Oh~"

Gus shook his head helplessly, walked to Andre's side, and handed him his clothes while also carrying out his giant Broadsword...

The three of them didn't have any ideas about sneaking in secretly. Bold because of their skill, they didn't hide and flew towards the building openly.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh...

Before they had flown far, the guards stationed here reacted. Hua Zhen raised his hand to signal Gus and Andre to stop, his eyes narrowed as he looked at the dozen or so figures flying out of the building.

The Mecha Guardians are the first line of defense left here by leaders like Ke Li. Their jet devices compress and release air, and the powerful thrust allows them to fight in the air. After a whistling sound, they quickly arrived in front of Hua Zhen and surrounded them.

"Scanning target..." A cold electronic synthesized voice came from a Mecha Guardian. At the same time, its compound eye device emitted a red light, scanning from the top of Hua Zhen's head to his feet.

Hua Zhen crossed his arms and looked around them with interest. Is this the technology of that Ancient Civilization Ruins? There's nothing special about it?

"Unable to find matching personnel in the data backup... Determined as intruders, switching to combat mode, eliminate!"

The voice of the Mecha Guardian sounded again. As soon as the voice fell, the original blue compound eyes turned into a dangerous red, and a great battle was about to break out
