Under the sea.
Two Flower Nacre Clan members pulled Fang Han like dogs pulling a sled, racing more than ten kilometers beneath the waves.
Only then did Fang Han notice that, besides the Mother Shell Submersibles, many Flower Nacre Clan members were dragging white cylinders behind them.
The cylinders were slightly thicker than an adult's thigh in diameter and nearly four meters long.
Fang Han examined them closely for a few moments and muttered to himself, "Could these things be Profound Weapons?"
Having Flower Nacre Clan members drag Profound Weapons through the sea and launch them sounded rather laughable, but given the temperament of those Artificers, they might actually have done it.
Take one example.
After the first-generation Lotus Profound Weapon was created, the Artificers let their imaginations run wild and devised all sorts of launch methods.
One of them was this—after Warhawks reached the target waters, they would airdrop Warriors and Profound Weapons into the sea together, allowing the Warriors to control the weapons and attack enemies in deep water.
The Artificers' idea was well-founded.
The ocean was a natural defensive layer for Sea Monsters. So long as they dived deep enough, the Warhawk Legion could do absolutely nothing to them.
If the Lotus Profound Weapon were modified to become a "Torpedo Profound Weapon,"

Unfortunately, every Legion Commander strongly opposed the proposal.
The reason was simple.
