Chapter 1927: Chapter 1925: Depths of the Dead Sea
Even with the relentless release of “Mad Laugh,” it was necessary to avoid the approach of ancient Deep-sea Divers.
But the descent process was not smooth.
Although Han Dong had already reached a certain depth within the Dead Sea, he could clearly sense that this was not the deepest part… After a round of searching, he had yet to find a passage to continue descending.
Just at this moment, Starfish Buri mentioned leading the way.
“Stop saying useless nonsense, I’m now preparing to go to the deepest part of the Dead Sea to seek its essence… Can you lead or provide some information?”
Boss~ You’re really taking a risk.
Our contemporary Deep-sea Divers are not adapted to living in the Dead Sea; even activities in the shallow layers carry great risks.
Many divers who come seeking opportunities either get eaten or completely succumb to their primal desires and mostly cannot exit the Dead Sea normally.
Even if a very few individuals leave the Dead Sea normally, according to their accounts, they only operate on the surface.
Additionally, I’ve heard rumors about the deepest layer…”
Han Dong slightly frowned, feeling that this Fat Starfish really had too much useless talk, but among this nonsense, a topic of interest was mentioned.
“Tell me, what rumors?”
“The rumor is that at the deepest layer of the Dead Sea is the tomb of a ‘King.’
These ancient divers who have lived in the Dead Sea for years and refuse to accept modern civilization do so largely to guard the Old King who once dominated the Dead Sea.”
“A king’s tomb? Which Old King?”
“Once second only to our Master in the ocean’s existence… Dominating the strongest army in the Deep Sea – the ‘Soldiers of The Dead Sea.’
However, during the ‘World Catastrophe,’ he encountered a Black Tower stronghold who mistakenly trespassed into the deep sea.
As our Master was busy handling other matters, he was left to fend off the intruder… Eventually, he got killed by a strange technique resembling a black whirlpool, with his corpse falling into the deepest part of the Dead Sea.
When our Master returned, He effortlessly subdued the intruder but couldn’t kill him… The intruder escaped using a technique similar to a black whirlpool.”
“Is there really such a thing?
The ruler of the Dead Sea, second only to Boss K in the deep sea, was killed by a Black Tower staff with black whirlpool power.
A person capable of such a feat must hold some primordial letter.
In that case, I need to go down even more! Buri, quickly say something useful. How can we get down there?”
“Do you really want to go down? Alright! Let me get out first, maybe I can find a pathway down.”
The chubby starfish covered in short dense tentacles, Buri, emerged from Han Dong’s head.
Its surface rapidly built a stable sea membrane to defend against the Dead Sea’s extreme environment.
Its new master was moving freely in the Dead Sea without relying on any defensive method.
At the same time, he noticed that the ancient divers nearby, who should’ve been desperate, dared not come close, seeming fearful of something.
“Already reached such a depth? Hold on, let me check the rock structures here… Maybe I can find a pathway down.”
“Alright, you search first… I’ll attempt to construct a transfer matrix.”
Upon hearing about the transfer, Starfish promptly stopped him:
“Boss, transferring isn’t advisable in the Dead Sea!
The black seawater here can easily crush just-built space pathways quickly, and if interrupted during crossing, you might be swept into space turbulence.”
“Oh? Can the transfer matrix work?”
Combining “Brief History of Void” and his training in the void space, Han Dong sketched a special matrix mark on the sea rock. The emitted starlight slightly illuminated their surroundings.
“Ah, this! Void Formation Mark… Boss, you’re awesome!
By the way~ my detecting method might cause significant noise, attracting distant ancient divers, Boss, you…”
“You talk too much, get to work.”
Buri hurriedly shut up.
Positioned as a pentacle on the ground, its surface topped with a billion small tentacles, all sticking between the rock layers.
Each tentacle slightly trembled at a fixed frequency, and their sum created a strong resonance, stirring the rocks and seawater severely.
Equivalent to a moderate-sized seabed earthquake.
Han Dong displayed a slightly joyful expression: “This guy… really has some skills. But, the noise is so loud, something’s coming.”
Several minutes passed,
Han Dong felt at least a hundred eyes watching him.
“Oh? The primal desire within, through the obsession with guarding the Dead Sea, actually broke through the influence of ‘Mad Laugh’… Are they about to attack?”
Han Dong didn’t mind engaging in a Dead Sea battle.
But considering these guys are vital deep-sea forces, an outsider like him coming in for bloodshed might prompt Boss K’s discontent… Even excessive killing could affect the Dead Sea’s ecological balance.
“Stay calm, be friendly.”
Han Dong restrained the “Canine Mane” surfacing on his right arm.
Instead, he let grey energy envelop his body, mimicking deeply… Swish! A pair of perfect wings spread behind him.
Instantly, the gathered ancient divers scattered.
Even though these guys follow the most primal instincts, they still revered such wing structures, not daring to approach.
Starfish Buri slowly left the rock layer, sensing some nearby changes, “What happened?”
“Nothing much, just chased away a few troublemakers.” Orıginal content can be found at novel_fіre.net
“Boss, you’re awesome! And… I’ve found a pathway, but I really need to confirm, do you really want to go down?”
Han Dong directly slapped Buri’s body, layers of ripples forming in the starfish’s fat surface, causing it to curl up with an innocent look in the central eye.
“You talk way too much, lead the way!”
Buri slithered quickly along the rock layers.
Advancing for around half an hour, the ground started getting covered in shells… Not ordinary shells, but large, even gigantic ones measured in meters.
Numerous female ancient divers were engaged in reproduction among the shells,
even beckoning to Han Dong and Buri, shooting adhesive, tough tongues attempting to pull them down.
“The path to deeper layers lies within the [Breeding Area].
Boss! Whatever you do, avoid engaging in fertility behavior with these females; they’re extremely formidable, once entangled, leaving the Dead Sea would be difficult…”
“You seem quite willing to, though.”
Buri’s starfish body both oozed saliva-like mucus and denied Han Dong’s comment.
While moving towards deeper parts, Han Dong noticed the terrain beginning to slope downward; indeed, they had found the way.
Passing the [Breeding Area], the seafloor rock slope reached about 45°.
Han Dong and Starfish Buri simultaneously paused.
A primal presence surpassing death floated in.
It triggered Han Dong’s body to undergo Sandification effect,
Buri clung tighter to Han Dong’s back out of sheer fear of death.
The Demon Eye’s effects were fully activated, penetrating the deep darkness, looking into the deepest part.
A seabed graveyard came into view, simultaneously peering at a terrifying presence beyond death, seemingly wandering within the graveyard…
