Sea Herring habitat.

Countless houses are built haphazardly on the seabed, resembling small hills of varying heights, forming a mountain range.

All sorts of fish dart among the hills formed by the houses, and every now and then one or two enormous creatures pass by, causing a commotion.

The house was surrounded by Sea Herring, which were like little elves, gathering seaweed and picking up crabs.

It seems to blend into the surrounding nature, creating a harmonious and beautiful atmosphere.

Yet, amidst this beautiful atmosphere, two figures were darting about at high speed.

Avoiding the gazes of all the Sea Herring, the two figures arrived at a quiet, deserted corner.

"Alright, there aren't any of those intelligent Variant around here, we can rest now."

A young man wearing glasses withdrew his senses and spoke to a person of similar age next to him who was wearing a half-mask.

And these two were actually human!

"Tch! Why hide like that? Why not just kill them all!"

The person wearing a half-mask angrily crushed the stone in their hand, staring at the dense school of fish outside, wishing they could tear them all to shreds.

"No." The man calmly shook his head in refusal.

"We know nothing about this place, and acting rashly could easily cause unnecessary trouble."

If it attracts a powerful Variant species...

"That means killing!!" The masked man angrily interrupted him.

He threw the pebbles in his hand, and they hit the rocks.

"Those cowards from the Light God Society!!! They ran away as soon as they saw us coming! They made us end up in this place that's just like another world."

We got separated!

Now you're hiding like a rat crossing the street! I can't even kill you if I want to!

" Yan Wusheng!"

The man interrupted the other person coldly, the lenses of his glasses gleaming with a chilling light.

"Our most important task now is to rendezvous with the other Special Extermination Squad and then find the Light God Society."

As for everything here, I will arrange a special investigation team to thoroughly investigate and study it when I get back.

So please calm down.

Yan Wusheng's chest heaved violently, but he gradually calmed down, hugging his chest and leaning against the rock.

"Yes, Commander Wang."

Wang Canxin did not react to Yan Wusheng's sarcastic words. After checking that he could still breathe underwater, he closed his eyes to rest.

Hela's eyes trembled slightly, then she slowly opened them, stretched, and crawled out of the net.

After a night of trying, Hela finally found a way to sleep.

That means you need to actively go to sleep, imagine the feeling of being sleepy in your mind, and you will fall asleep in no time.

Although Hela also found this strange, at least she no longer had to count sheep to get by.

Why are you awake too?

Spirit Shark's voice came from behind. Hela looked over and saw that the other person was holding Minghai in his arms, sitting up and listening to something with a wary expression.

"I... I slept until I naturally woke up."

A strange glint flashed in Spirit Shark's eyes. He gently put Minghai down, then slapped Mingsha across the face.

Mingsha was still fast asleep, stumbled awake and looked around in confusion.

"Get up quickly! It sounds like a big monster is going berserk nearby. We need to stop it before it causes serious damage."

" Hela, you come too, help disperse the Sea Herring."

After saying that, she transformed into Sea Shark Dragon, stirring up the seawater and shooting off in one direction.

Although Mingsha was still a bit confused, he quickly rushed out and transformed into Sea Shark Dragon.

"Come on up, I'll take you there."

"Uh-huh!"

Hela nodded twice, without saying a word, and quickly climbed up. The Mingsha flapped its wing-like fins and followed the Spirit Shark's steps.

Thump-thump--thump--

That strange feeling again.

Hela clutched her chest, the excitement she felt before encountering the giant catfish returning.

This time, however, the current is even more turbulent and powerful.

Last time we encountered that ferocious giant catfish, but this time, could we be facing an even more terrifying monster?

Hela swallowed hard, but the thought of Spirit Shark and Mingsha being there eased her tension.

The Mingsha suddenly stopped, staring at the terrifying scene before it, its enormous pupils trembling slightly.

Hela nearly fell over due to inertia. When she looked up ahead, her heart skipped a beat, and fear made her almost forget to breathe.

Before them stood a colossal beast, resembling a dragon and seemingly straight out of a mythical world, confronting the Spirit Shark with bared fangs and claws.

It was almost twice the size of Spirit Shark, and blood kept seeping from its wounds, staining its hard scales crimson.

"Quickly evacuate the surrounding Sea Herring, then run!"

Mingsha threw Hela off and rushed over to fight alongside Spirit Shark.

Hela thrashed about in the water for a moment before regaining her balance.

Turning its head to glance at the three giant beasts locked in fierce combat, it swallowed hard and swam towards the Sea Herring.

"What is this?!"

"It's the Guardians! The Guardians are protecting us!"

"Mommy! Mommy, where are you!"

"..."

The chaotic school of fish screamed and scattered, like a flock of sheep helpless against a hungry wolf, forced to flee.

"Run this way! Don't panic!"

"Who else hasn't run away yet!"

Hela stood in the school of fish, trying to disperse them while constantly checking to see if any had escaped.

All around, the massive bodies of the three colossal beasts crashed repeatedly onto rocks and houses.

Rocks and debris from buildings exploded and flew everywhere, landing on the surrounding fish and seabed, stirring up clouds of sand.

"Help--!"

A small fish, half its body trapped under the rocks, thrashed about, desperately pleading for help from Hela.

Hela, seeing this, rushed forward to rescue her.

But looking at the rock, as big as a small mountain, that was pressing down on the fish, he was somewhat at a loss.

"Help me..."

The cries of the Sea Herring began to fade, as if their Life were slipping away.

Hela gritted her teeth, disregarded everything else, grabbed the bottom of the reef with both hands, and lifted it up with all her might!

A reef hundreds of times larger Hela was easily overturned and landed heavily on the seabed.

"Why?"

Gazing at her masterpiece, Hela looked down at her hands in astonishment, her peach-pink eyes filled with disbelief.

"Call..."

The Sea Herring that had been pinned down suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. Its bloodied and mangled body undulated slightly as it slowly lost consciousness.

"Are you alright!" Hela quickly put the strange scene from earlier out of her mind, bent down, and hurriedly checked on the Sea Herring.

Seeing that he had only lost consciousness and was not dead, I finally felt relieved.

She gently pulled it into her arms, checked the surroundings to make sure there were no other Sea Herring, and swam to safety.

The dragon, who was battling the two Spirit Shark, saw Hela preparing to flee, and a violent aura surged from its eyes.

Its massive body thrashed about, struggling to break free from the two fish that were biting it.
