If you encounter Norton, stay away immediately. He's someone who spreads negativity around.
Abraham was unaware that Norton was also looking at books.
"Throw all your negative energy out to others, and you'll be happy..."
Norton was engrossed in reading a book he called " The Southern Continent Thick Black Theory."
In fact, the principles written in this book are very simple, which Norton already knew, and he may have even read them in his previous life. In fact, Norton has always acted very correctly, much like those described in the book.
However, he was somewhat shocked to find that such books existed in this world of the Southern Continent.
These 16-hour workday animals actually have some kind of spiritual depth, don't they?
They even know how to relax and unwind to work more efficiently?
On a ship bound for the Northern Continent.
Nowadays, ships from various countries in the Southern Continent are strong and large enough to withstand most winds and waves, thus ensuring stable navigation.
This is all thanks to the vast number of ship slaves.
If they weren't so valuable, how could the maritime trade of the Southern Continent have achieved such tremendous development?
On the ocean-going ships of the Aodelan Empire, a large number of people were gathered at this time.
Aside from young women used for reproduction, the majority of those involved in this migration were soldiers armed with muskets.
These soldiers will be the best way to wipe out the native inhabitants of the Northern Continent, which also means that a crazy bloodbath is about to unfold.
However, the people on these ships are still filled with apprehension about the uncertainties of the future.
Miles XIV stood on the deck, looking out at the distant fleet.
At this moment, on the boundless sea, thousands of large ships were sailing simultaneously, surrounded by a dense array of smaller escort vessels. Such a massive fleet of ships was truly terrifying, and this was merely the last voyage of personnel transport.
To prevent the Pale God from tracing back to the Northern Continent, the countries of the Southern Continent have destroyed the specific coordinates of the Northern Continent, and even collected and burned maps from previous years. In addition, all the large ships that can cross the ocean have been sent to the Northern Continent and will not return. The main purpose is to buy as much time as possible for the foundation of these distant empires.
However, this voyage was not as safe as in the past.
The ocean in Garden of Eden also contained large creatures, but not blue whales. Instead, there was a deep-sea monster called the Yindan, which had a bizarre appearance with a snake-like body covered in tentacles resembling elephant trunks. These tentacles moved rapidly in the ocean, enabling it to swim quickly and possess amazing hunting abilities.
Their body length can reach a terrifying fifty meters or more, and they are carnivorous creatures.
However, the reason why this deep-sea monster is called the deep-sea monster is because it only lives in the deep sea, and the ones that have been seen in the past are all corpses that have floated up from the deep sea.
The pressure from the deep sea is enough to tear its muscles and damage its internal organs, which is why this thing is so rare and extremely precious.
However, these terrifying deep-sea creatures have been seen quite frequently lately.
The deck was bustling with activity, and the constant arguing had resumed.
"Your Majesty, another Kraken corpse has been spotted in the distance!" A shout drew Miles XIV down from the top deck. His brow furrowed, he followed the directions of his men toward the bow of the ship in the distance.
"Another one? Was it one of those strange fish that killed this deep-sea monster?"
A bad feeling rose in Miles XIV's heart.
Since the start of this ocean voyage, the corpses of various giant creatures have appeared on the sea surface every few days, and even the deep-sea monster has appeared twice already.
Moreover, these giant creatures did not die from their own pathological problems, but from being bitten by a small fish.
The round-shelled fish is a very widespread fish that feeds on small mollusks and invertebrates.
This fish used to be food for some large filter feeders in the ocean, but now it has become the culprit that kills these giant creatures.
"Yes, Your Majesty! The body of that sea monster is almost completely devoured. Those damned fish are extremely aggressive, and they look a little different from the ones before!"
The round-mouthed fish doesn't have teeth, but now when you pry open its mouth, it's full of fangs!
Miles XIV frowned and followed the others to the bow of the ship, where he finally saw a huge, red corpse floating on the sea in the distance.
The red color isn't the color of the corpses themselves, but rather the color of the red, round fish covering the corpses, which had been torn and gnawed away.
These fish used to be transparent, but now they have all turned red; I wonder what caused it.
By this time, some people had already used long poles to catch a few small fish.
These fish are extremely aggressive; even after they're out of the water, they still try to jump and bite.
Judging from the enormous number of small fish on that huge corpse, anyone who jumps off the boat now would probably be devoured to a skeleton in an instant.
Miles XIV frowned, a sense of foreboding rising in his heart as he looked at the enormous corpse in the distance.
He asked in a cold voice, "Do you have a captain who knows this ocean? Bring him here!"
"Your Majesty, I am the captain!" As Miles XIV spoke, a bearded man pushed his way out of the crowd, his face looking rather grim.
"Have you ever seen a fish like this before?" Miles XIV asked, his expression growing increasingly grim.
"No, Your Majesty. These fish should be transparent and have no teeth at all. Even if they did have teeth, they shouldn't be able to bite through the flesh of this deep-sea monster, and they shouldn't be like this... so full of life!" As he spoke, the captain held up a fish in his hand as a demonstration.
He threw the fish onto the boat and then stomped on it hard.
"Splat!" A bursting sound rang out as the fish's innards were stomped out.
Even so, when it moved its foot away, the little fish still had the strength to wag its tail.
Miles XIV frowned even more deeply, his gaze sweeping across the surrounding sea, and he asked again, "When did this thing appear? Did the last ship notice this when it came here?"
"We've discovered it, Your Majesty. Actually, the strange species that appeared at the beginning wasn't this kind of fish, but a small octopus that had grown several times larger. We didn't see this kind of fish on the previous ships, but there were other mutated species."
We don't know what's going on, but ever since the naval battle a couple of years ago, strange creatures have been appearing one after another."
"The naval battle is over?" Miles XIV was startled!
There were no naval battles in the recent war. The only naval battle was between ships from the Aodelan Empire transporting holy water and ships from the Holy Boya Empire.
And all that holy water was poured into the ocean after the naval battle!
Damn it!
Miles XIV's head was spinning; he had figured everything out.
But then, he recalled the Mass that had been held for several years in the territory of the Aodelan Empire, and the distribution of holy water Mass year!
"That Pale God is assimilating the people of my Aodelan Empire!"
