The strange octopus-headed monster in the mural looked incredibly familiar to Evan.
Because it was almost identical to the various forms of Cthulhu that he had seen during his time on Earth.
Cthulhu in this mural looks quite disheveled.
His enormous body was trampled underfoot by another giant whose entire body was covered in waves.
The giant held an enormous trident in his left hand.
With his other hand, he grabbed Cthulhu's long beard near his mouth, in a posture like a young man grabbing an old man's beard, pressing it down firmly.
"Good heavens, Poseidon versus Cthulhu!?"
Based on Evan's own limited knowledge of mythology, the only figure in his mind that could be associated with the trident and the ocean Poseidon, the sea god from Greek mythology.
"Based on the previous appraisal of the Sea God Coin using the Appraisal Technique, it can be determined that the Poseidon appears to be some ancient God."
"Those gold coins that were forged to celebrate the Incarnation of the Divine Child."
"Later, the entire sea god and his dynasty were overthrown, and the abandoned son of the god was sealed away somewhere, to wander eternally."
"Judging from the scene at that time, it seems that the sea god initially suppressed Cthulhu."
"Thus they controlled the entire Sea and established the Sea God Dynasty."
"But later, for some reason, the sea god fell, and the factions that worshipped Cthulhu were revived."
"This has led to the entire ocean now becoming the domain of Deep One."
As Evan pondered, the Black Seagull hovering beside him whispered a trembling reminder.
"Sir, let's leave immediately."
"Ordinary people like me can't stay in this place for long."
"I can already feel something in my mind, disturbing my concentration."
Evan turned his head and could see that the Black Seagull's face was growing paler and paler, and its eyes were becoming cloudy and blurry.
He instinctively clutched his head with both hands, his expression filled with pain.
With a casual wave of his hand, Evan sent his Secondary Brain leaping up and landing on the Black Seagull.
Overwhelmed by the intense pain, the Black Seagull no longer cared about the strange monster.
But the moment the monster landed on him, the Black Seagull felt a surge of intense life force enveloping him.
Soon, the power that had been rummaging through his memories and thoughts was completely shut out.
The indescribable restlessness, confusion, and dazed state I felt before vanished in an instant.
Even my body, which had become somewhat chilly from being soaked in the water, felt filled with comfort and warmth.
The Black Seagull, regaining its senses, immediately widened its eyes and turned to look at the little monster perched on its shoulder, its face filled with awe.
Thank you for your help.
The Black Seagull bowed respectfully to the Secondary Brain to express its gratitude.
He never expected that this little thing could actually block the Curse from the sea god.
While the Black Seagull were still in shock, Evan had already dived into the water.
Having previously ingested some Deep One bodily fluid, Evan was an extremely fast swimmer.
Under the watchful eyes of the Black Seagull, Evan was like a torpedo being launched.
Surrounded by numerous bubbles, it quickly plunged straight down to the seabed.
The moment he approached the object, Evan felt an incredibly powerful aura rush towards him.
This aura is like the surging, boundless Sea.
In a daze, Evan saw the gigantic waves, thousands of meters high, sweeping everything down from the sky.
It seemed as if the entire world would be submerged in these waves.
This is an indescribable despair and oppression.
Evan immediately used the Garden of Life to cover his body.
At the same time, the Blood Moon Hair and the Rabid Divine Carbuncle, woven together in a black and red net, covered his spirit.
In an instant, that despairing illusion vanished.
Instead, there were bursts of mournful cries and lamentations that seemed to come from ancient times.
"Sigh~"
"Waaaaah~"
"Alas! Ooh!"
The sound was strange, yet somehow familiar to Evan.
Because after he took the Fast-Acting Purification Potion, he heard a similar chanting sound from the monster that attacked him.
At the very moment the sound rang out, Evan's own Spirituality began to fluctuate violently.
This constantly reminded him that an attack was imminent.
Upon seeing this, Evan grabbed the Sacred Bone Staff, his sharp Golden eyes scanning the surroundings.
Soon, along with the strange noise, came the sound of very familiar waves.
In a daze, Evan found himself seemingly transported back to the moment when he first took the Fast-Acting Purification Potion.
But compared to before, Evan is now a completely different person.
In an instant, a deathly pale shadow reached for Evan's neck.
Evan immediately activated the Garden of Life, wrapping it up in a large black and red net Weaving from Blood Moon Hair and Rabid Divine Carbuncle.
Pfft!!
The moment that large hand with six fingers collided with the large black and red net.
The Burning Authority emanating from the Blood Moon God began to rapidly scorch that pale skin.
Rabid Divine Carbuncle releases various Virus, creating numerous broken wounds on the skin.
Faced with the power of this Status, one could see that the six-fingered claw also seemed to have suffered some impact.
Just like a normal hand touching a flame, it instantly withdrew and disappeared into the waves.
Since the hand did not cause any harm to his body, no matching information appeared on the Panel.
"Could this guy be the son of god who roams and wanders in the Deep Sea?"
"He instinctively protects all that carries the aura of the sea god?"
While pondering his thoughts, Evan swam faster.
Just as he approached the ship, without any warning, he suddenly saw a large amount of information appear on the Panel.
[You have entered the Deep Sea Reef Domain.]
[You have been imprisoned in the Reef Prison.]
As the notification on the Panel appeared, Evan suddenly noticed a large amount of eerie black mist surrounding him.
These black mists were also mixed with many seashells, seaweed, and various kinds of fish bones.
These things combined to form a series of incredibly complex Blood Chains.
From all directions, they approached his body without even making contact.
Instead, it grew directly from the inside of his skin.
The structure of this Blood Chains completely defies normal logic.
The tangled seaweed Weaving, forming ring after ring.
These grass rings pass through the shell from the left and right, forming a connection.
Finally, a large number of fish skulls with sharp teeth were incorporated into the Blood Chains on both sides.
They kept moving up and down inside Evan's body.
The goal was to completely lock his skin and bones in this way.
After completing the journey, the top is decorated with numerous bones and fish heads with their mouths open, biting each other.
Crack! Crack...
With a series of grinding sounds, Evan immediately felt as if he had lost all control of his body.
Not to mention that he can't move normally, he can't even tense his muscles or control his breathing.
It's like being paralyzed from the waist down.
"That's interesting!"
Ordinary Beyonder would be completely helpless in such a situation.
Evan is different.
Then Evan instantly activated the special Status of Blood Moon Spirit.
The previously normal head transformed into a blood-red moon with various abstract expressions.
At the same time, a special domain was formed within a half-meter radius of his body.
A range of half a meter is negligible on a conventional scale of distance.
However, this was enough for the forces affecting Evan's body at this moment.
Within this realm, the power of the Garden of Life is unleashed to its fullest extent.
The Skull Flowers after another, stood up.
Their heads are skulls, and their bodies are skeletal structures supported by numerous Root Tendrils.
The Tree Root that had transformed into Centipede intertwined Weaving together, forming chain after Blood Chains.
Under the control and arrangement of these skull flowers and pus-sucking Gravestone, these Blood Chains completely enveloped the strange Blood Chains embedded in Evan's body.
Then I saw many oval-shaped sprites, like eggshells come to life, covered in pustules, with smiling crescent-shaped eyes and ferocious mouths, appearing from all around.
These sprites floated on the black and red threads, descending from the sky.
With a cheerful laugh, it sat on the seaweed chain through the Centipede Blood Chains.
These are the native inhabitants who were nurtured in this Garden of Life as Evan's abilities grew.
The original inhabitants were still in a primitive and ignorant state.
These things have now taken physical form and have considerable control over the interior of the Garden of Life.
Evan named it the Life Spirits.
They are based on Evan's power and possess an almost inexhaustible vitality.
Within this vitality, all sorts of incredible possibilities can constantly emerge.
This could include a certain evolutionary direction, a Virus that was mistakenly bred, or a deadly Plague that appeared by sheer chance...
Currently, there are 77 such Life Spirits that have developed their own physical form and are able to harness the power of the Garden of Life.
This is Evan's current limit.
If we want to expand further, we can only wait until he is promoted to Lord.
At this moment, these Life Spirits could be seen singing strange songs, while their bodies continuously released corrosive Virus and energy.
These energies began to rapidly corrode the Blood Chains formed by the forces of the ocean.
Although the seaweed was blessed with special power, it was not affected much at first.
But after arriving here, its energy supply has been cut off, leaving it like a rootless weed.
The power of a massive Life Plague was initially blocked by the special energy membrane on these seaweeds.
But soon, these energy membranes were absorbed and corroded by the Garden of Life, from which all sorts of strange living things grew.
These twisted, living things grow from the inside of the energy membrane and then rapidly decay outwards.
Then we saw that the lush, incredibly resilient seaweed was gradually developing yellow spots.
The yellow spots spread rapidly, turning the area into withered grass in the blink of an eye.
As the seaweed, which forms the main connecting element, developed problems, the shells, which act as the link, also began to show holes due to the corrosion of these Life Spirits.
It then turned into a large amount of powder and blended into the soil of the Garden of Life.
