The submarine was moving quickly, the energy stones on the wall flickered on and off, and there were sporadic sparks.
The entire submarine shook violently, but fortunately everyone grabbed the seat handles in time.
Looking through the glass window of the submarine, the left and right sides were completely dark, and occasionally strange underwater creatures flashed by.
After a while, the submarine finally stopped vibrating and the light lit up again.
With a "squeaking" friction sound, the submarine scraped a blackened track on the square pavement paved with mother-of-pearl, and the shell fragments that were opened shone with a faint blue light under the magnetic fluid shield.
A new prompt came from the panel, Dick watched carefully this time:
Kill the violent frogman X40 and get Energy Points X400;
Kill the Frogman Thrower X65 and get Energy Points X650:
Complete the commission (escort the fish-man princess Nazi home) and obtain Energy Points X300;
The current total is Energy Points X1500.
Without much hesitation, the 1200 energy disappeared, leaving only 300 Energy Points on the panel.
[Magic Trap] (Elite level): The range is expanded to 15 meters and has the same effect on physical monsters.
[Magic Trap]--Master level: The five-star array produced is equipped with ionization sparks, which can cause a lot of damage to enemies entering the array.
In the past, Dick was reluctant to upgrade Magic Trap, mainly because it affected mostly incorporeal creatures such as vengeful spirits, and had minimal impact on physical creatures.
Now, it can actually have the same effect on physical creatures, that is to say, as long as the physical creatures step into its range of action, their speed will be slowed down.
But for Dick at this time, this skill is just the icing on the cake. Most of the time, the sword in his hand can solve the problem.
"Not bad." Dick said to himself lightly.
"Oh! The great Captain Stein has no experience in doing this for the first time." Stein's short legs jumped and pointed outside, "Look, are those fishmen?"
Looking along his fingertips, many strange-looking creatures, most of them fish-headed and wearing clothing woven from seaweed shells, were looking around outside the submarine.
"Finally we're home." Nazi breathed a sigh of relief, staggered towards the steel ladder, opened the upper hatch first, and everyone climbed out.
When everyone landed, the fishmen outside exclaimed:
"Humans! Why are there humans here?"
"Who knows."
"Humans look so weak, and they don't smell good like seaweed."
"Huh? That blue-haired one looks familiar. He seems to be... Princess Nazi!"
The exclamations rippled through the crowd like water waves.
Dick ignored the noise of the fishmen and looked around.
In the far distance, the outlines of countless tall and exquisite buildings can be vaguely seen.
Above the sky, through the water light, one can see an extremely thick transparent film, which is upside down in the entire space like a porcelain bowl, blocking out the turbulent sea water.
In the seawater outside the film, several sperm whales were swimming happily.
"Is this the origin of civilization?" Stein shouted excitedly.
Morgana looked around with the same interest. When he saw a strong shark-headed murloc, his eyes lingered for a moment on his strong 12-pack abdominal muscles with some light blue scales growing on his waist.
Nazi suppressed the excitement in his heart and explained to everyone, "This is the capital of Poseidonia, Atlantis.
"The place where we are staying is to the left of the city center."
Nazi pointed to a building with an exquisite dome and said, "That building with an exquisite dome is the palace of Sea God."
She pointed to the tall building on the right side of the square, "That's where the temple of High Priest Medusa is."
When her fingertips changed direction for the third time, they landed on a stone sculpture at least ten feet high in the center of the square.
"He is Sea God."
The statue is of a man, stepping on the waves, holding a trident, and stabbing forward with all his strength.
"Nazi, why is it so bright here, just like natural light?" Stein asked the question again from a scientific perspective, "Logically speaking, this place is two thousand meters away from the water, and sunlight cannot penetrate at all."
Nazi Breathing the salty moisture in the air, I feel that my body is much more flexible.
"This is natural light. We underwater creatures can use magic to bring sunlight from above the sea into the seabed through some strange methods, so the entire city is filled with natural light.
Moreover, day and night are determined by the angle of sunlight refracted by the coral bell tower. At this moment, there are shoals of luminous electric fish swimming in the dome, simulating the glimmer of dawn on the land."
"Since you are deep-sea creatures, why do you still use that Protection film to separate the sea water and live like land people?" Morgana asked curiously, pointing to the sky.
"There are many unfathomable waters and unknown and dangerous creatures in the ocean, and the waves will become rougher with climate change.
Although we are deep-sea creatures, we cannot stay in the water all the time. It would be too dangerous.
Therefore, Sacrificial Temple used magic to create the Protection magic circle to separate a large space so that residents could live in peace."
Nazi smiled playfully, "Of course, don't think that there is only one city in Atlantis. There is a portal in the central square of every large city that can lead to other nearby cities."
Several people nodded repeatedly, never expecting that the underwater world could be so particular.
Dick looked past the surging crowd and saw that the crowd had made way for them.
A creature of at least two and a half meters tall appeared, with a dragon head, vertical pupils, a strong upper body, and a thick python tail on the lower body. It had no legs and quickly moved towards this direction by swinging its tail.
This creature was covered in dark green and held a giant trident with cold light in its hand.
Behind it, neatly followed a group of creatures that looked similar to it but were not as tall as it, and seemed to be its subordinates.
This creature walked up to everyone with an indifferent face. When it saw Nazi, it suddenly became excited and spoke in a rough but calm voice:
"Your Highness Nazi, I never thought you would return to Deep-Sea World one day."
"Sparta, I didn't expect to come back here, and the first old friend I saw was you."
It turned out that this was Sparta, Dick thought to himself, looking at his physique, he might be able to defeat 100 elite cavalry at once.
Nazi stretched out his hand, pointed at a few people around him and introduced:
"Sparta was awarded the title of Grand Commander of the Murlocs. He and the Murloc Guards under his command are responsible for guarding our royal palace. In general, the safety of this city depends on him."
Dick looked up at this huge creature with a smile on his face to show kindness.
But Sparta's expression suddenly became tense. "Your Highness Nazi, why are there humans traveling with you?"
This change of expression made Dick feel dazed for a moment, and he realized why he felt that this creature was so familiar.
When we were dealing with the Deep Sea Priest in the inner lake, wasn't the stone statue under the Deep Sea Priest's seat the fishman guard?
"Logically, Deep-Sea World does not welcome any land creatures. But these people rescued me from the predicament. They are my friends. Please show mercy this time, Sparta, just treat us as welcoming guests."
"Sorry, Your Highness, the rules cannot be changed. I will never allow human feet to set foot on the land of Atlantis."
After saying this, Sparta gently waved his hand and hit the trident. The 12 murloc guards behind him swung their snake tails and slowly surrounded the three people.
They held the trident pole tightly in their hands, their fingertips faintly touching the ground.
"Although I am the leader of the fish people, I am not unreasonable." Sparta looked at Nazi who was about to speak, and added,
"As long as they can pass the test of Sea God and be recognized, I will allow them to stay here."
"Sea God's trial is extremely dangerous. How can ordinary humans pass it? Sparta, I think you just want them to die!"
"Your Highness, please be patient, I do not require everyone to pass Sea God's Trial." Sparta looked at Stein and commented lightly,
"He has a big head, a thick neck, a weak body, and is a deformed dwarf. He is probably either a clown or a cook in the land world."
Stein was so angry that his thick mustache at the corners of his mouth trembled rapidly, but considering the strength gap between the two sides, he just turned his head to the side of his heart, crossed his chest with two short hands, and muttered in a low voice:
"Stupid deep-sea creatures only know how to judge people by their appearance. Don't you know that my head is full of wisdom?"
Sparta's snake eyes looked at the sorceress and started to comment again:
"Human women, with their frail bodies and weak hands unable to restrain fish, are far inferior to any creature under the sea."
Morgana just chuckled, still staring with interest at the strong shoulders of one of the 12 murloc guards behind her.
Sparta looked at Dick again, "Human male, short in stature, but his body seems to contain powerful power.
His pupils are the same as mine, which is a standard feature of a strong man.
The adrenaline oozing out of your pores smells like sulfur. Did you tear your own tendons the last time you exploded with all your strength?
As long as you pass the trial of Sea God, all land creatures can stay here."
