That's so mysterious...
Xia Yibing curled her lips.
In fact, it was probably... What Lengdis found should be a secret realm of the Lord God, where he obtained the initial batch of tools and materials - possibly including a modified factory, and then he used these things combined with what he had learned to create a group of robots, which gradually snowballed into a mechanical kingdom for himself.
"Didn't you ask about transcendence before? The key to transcendence lies in the Port of Colossae."
As he spoke, Bunoliel took out a parchment roll from a drawer and spread it out on the table. The two saw that it was a map.
"This is the map of Aisha Continent in the modern era that we roughly mapped... Look, this is the port of Colossae."
He pointed to the very bottom of the map, a little to the left of Hitzfeld's perspective.
"There is a hidden secret realm of the Lord God in Colosse Port. If you don't understand the secret code of the Goddess, you can't open it. Because of this secret realm, although Colosse Port is also part of Aisha Continent and was swallowed by the gray fog together with it, it can still find its way home from the maze of time and space."
"Am I to understand that the secret place is an 'anchor'?"
Hitzfeld thought for a moment and asked.
"Colosse Port, like other lands in Aisha Continent, was taken to the other side of the gray fog. Theoretically, it should be far away from the original time and space, but the gray fog cannot affect the God Lord Secret Realm, so the Secret Realm exists in both the Namiyya World and the world behind the gray fog at the same time. The Secret Realm is equivalent to becoming a channel connecting the two worlds... Is this what you mean?"
"That's right!" Bunoliel was a little excited, "Very appropriate... You are really talented, Your Highness!"
Hitzfeld ignored him: "So you have a way to sneak back without asking Yinsel...you are also sending messages through this channel?"
"No." The old man shook his head. "In order to solve the problem of communication, the doctor specially built a communication tower in the ruins outside the secret realm. It was disguised as a clock tower, and its actual function is to receive and transmit external signals."
"You guys came to us not long after we showed up at Inian Harbor. What on earth do you want to do?"
This is what Hitzfeld is really concerned about.
To be honest, she had no interest in being a princess.
The situation is obvious - after the death of Coldis, his mechanical army and the undead fleet parted ways, splitting into two major forces, the Kingdom of Corrupted Blood and the Kingdom of Mechanical God, occupying the north and south of the Elsa continent respectively.
Among them, the territory of the Kingdom of Corrupted Blood is obviously much larger. It is the territory of the Undead Fleet. Their leader Yinsel is also the master of Eclipse. He is loyal to the evil god and secretly helps control the Church of the Mother of Savior.
The area below belongs to the Mechanical Kingdom. The two forces have been at war and confronting each other since their split. She doesn't want to be involved in such a dispute for no reason.
"This is your responsibility and obligation, Your Highness."
Bunoliel saw what she was thinking, and realized that he was forcing her with the greater good.
"To put it simply, the entire kingdom of God is the property bestowed upon you by the Doctor. Now that your property has been violated, you must express your opinion on it."
"To put it in a broader sense, the Kingdom of God has been fighting against those corrupted maggots. If we fail in the end and they devour the doctor's research, then Yinsel will be able to drive a mechanical army and transport it to Sara continuously through the Undead Fleet."
"We must overthrow the rule of the Corrupted Blood here!" His tone was extremely firm. "This is already a struggle, Your Highness! Either they die or we die!"
"I need to think about it..." Hitzfeld put his hand on his forehead, "Can you give me and my companion a moment? Bunoliel?"
"of course."
The old man stood up and bowed to her.
Then, before she could react, he tore open the collar of his shirt, revealing a thin chest covered with hideous scars.
It was a truly disgusting sight: the scars on the chest skin were like giant centipedes, one of which had not even healed completely, and blood stains could be seen near the wound.
"I should have died a long time ago." He confessed in this posture, "My heart was dug out at that time... I was powerless and could only watch as the demons took it and took away the blood vessels... I prayed that if anyone could save me and avenge me, they would definitely get everything I have."
"It was the Doctor who saved me, Your Highness."
"I survived with the help of the transformation surgery. The doctor avenged me and saved my daughter Shana... He told me that the real enemy is not the blood beast, but the people who let the blood beast run rampant on the earth."
Both Hitzfeld and Xia Yibing were moved.
It's true that they are wary of external things, but that doesn't mean they have lost their ability to distinguish and can't see a person's true feelings.
If this is also a lie, then Bunoliel...his acting skills are too superb.
"I can tell you bluntly, Your Highness, we need to gather together and assassinate the Human King they support as she is about to hold her birthday party!"
"We have nothing to hide from you! You can give it more thought... I just want to say that I personally fully respect any decision you make, but if I am lucky enough to have your support, or even to join me, I will do my best to help you."
He paused.
"I'm sure if the Doctor were still alive he would be very proud!"
After saying that, he left, along with the mechanical crab, leaving only the two of them in the room looking at each other in bewilderment.
"…Aisun?"
After a brief silence, Xia Yibing came over, held the girl's shoulders, and massaged her with a little force.
"I think we should give it a try..."
After all, it didn't do Sarah any harm.
"It's hard to say." Hitzfeld frowned, obviously still thinking about the pros and cons.
"On the surface, it seems harmless. Indeed, Sheena and them have a cooperative relationship... But you have seen what happened recently. The internal affairs of Eclipse are not united. Sheena has the idea of setting up her own company. I even suspect that she has broken with the church."
If that was the case, then helping to assassinate Sina would not be appropriate. Instead, leaving her behind to help contain the Undead Fleet and find a way to facilitate cooperation between Sina and the Mechanical Kingdom would be the best option.
"Don't we have a chance?"
Xia Yibing held her face and forced the girl to look at her.
"You mean... the cooperation that Luca mentioned?"
"Yes, we can contact Sheena through Luca first... As long as we conceal our identities for the time being and don't let her know who we are, we should be able to use this to test her thoughts..."
"She'll be very angry." Hitzfeld smiled.
"I'm afraid he'll want to kill us if he finds out."
"Anyway, I will support you no matter what you choose."
Xia Yibing leaned over and completely embraced her upper body in his arms.
"I will always be with you..."
……
At the same time, in another time and space, a long shuttle submarine was rising and falling in the storm.
In fact, it is not afraid of storms. No matter how strong the wind and waves are, it can avoid them by hiding in the seabed...but the problem is that the main threat now comes from the seabed, strictly speaking, it comes from some mystery under the seabed.
The water below was turning red.
Just like blood... surrounding them little by little.
Chapter 118 Encounter on the Sea of Blood 6k
"What on earth is that blood?"
"Who knows! It's like they appeared out of thin air!"
“There are more and more of them!”
"They're coming!"
Along with the loud howling of a group of people in the submarine, the bloody pollution spreading from the seabed finally completely enveloped the entire submarine Pierre. The people inside couldn't see anything clearly for a while, and everyone instantly shut up and listened quietly, not knowing what this meant.
"It seems to be alright?" Darent asked hesitantly in the restaurant.
He felt like there was nothing wrong... It was just covered in these blood stains, and they themselves didn't seem to have any killing power?
But soon, there was a strong vibration from the outside world, and a long whistle that could be clearly heard even on the bottom of the sea, as if the Pierre had hit some sleeping giant and accidentally angered it.
"Use the horn! Use the horn!" Ethan stayed in the control room and watched Tenize as before. He had already noticed the huge black shadow flashing in the blood through the periscope. He had no time to make other reminders in a moment, and this sentence was even instinctive.
Teni was very nervous because of his shouting. He tried to drive the boat in reverse, but it was stuck, or even caught by some external factors. A flash of determination flashed in his eyes, and he pushed a joystick from the side, releasing the current stored in the Apis Cube during this period.
A strong whistle was heard again, and the Pierre shook again, but this time Teney was able to reverse.
Without saying a word, he immediately reversed the boat, then turned the bow according to Ethan's instructions, showed his sharpest and most proud weapon, and rushed forward at full speed.
"Everyone prepare for impact—"
"boom!!!"
Before Ethan finished reminding, the collision had already happened. In just a moment, the people sitting in the restaurant fell to the ground, all kinds of tableware and plates flew everywhere, and the ping-pong sounds in the kitchen were almost continuous, but no one really paid attention to these.
This scene was so familiar...So what about the sea monster? Did I hurt it just now?
“It’s hurt, it’s hurt!” Ethan saw the shadow retreating through the periscope, “The blood is getting thicker around here!… Damn it! I can’t see anything clearly!!”
"What should we do now?" Teni frowned and asked for advice.
"Need I ask?" Ethan said fiercely, "Of course I'm chasing him!!"
"Now the vision is limited, and no matter who looks at it, the result will be the same, except for you, Your Highness. Only you can sense the outside world directly through the magic cube, and only you can track this guy, so don't hesitate! If you can do it, do it again!!!"
I have to say that Ethan being here to watch over him is very useful.
If Teni Ze was alone, he would never dare to do these things. But with someone watching him, the effect was like a child always looking back at his parents when participating in a competition - he felt inexplicably confident.
So after receiving the encouragement, he did not say another word, and tried his best to muster the ruthlessness from his bones, and rushed forward according to the huge outline that he vaguely sensed, driving the hull to collide again!
"boom!!!"
Another flurry of people turned around.
"boom!!!"
Darent was thrown from his seat onto the bar, and was forced to hold onto the ceiling railing with one hand, his body hanging in the air like a carp streamer.
"It's finished!" Turney was excited, as if he saw something, "It's exhausted! I think I have completely killed it!!!"
"Well done!" Ethan was well prepared. He had several buckle straps on his body to fasten him to the seat. Hearing this, he loudly encouraged him: "How is it now? Is it floating or sinking?"
"It's coming up!"
"Then let's float up too! Come on, get to the surface, but don't rush too fast. I want to use this thing to see the situation first!"
While transmitting the battle situation back through the loudspeaker, which caused a faint cheer, Ethan stared intently at the periscope, but there was still only a bloodstain in his sight.
He suddenly had a question in his mind - where did all this blood come from?
Isn't it strange? At first he suspected that this was the blood of the big guy himself, or the blood of some giant prey it hunted, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed that nothing could bleed so much?
There are so many that they have polluted all the nearby sea areas. This is no longer a matter of scope but concentration! Is there really anything in the world that can bleed so much?
Just as I was wondering, the tube of the periscope had already emerged from the sea.
The blood stain on the mirror was wiped off with a mechanical device. Ethan blinked and looked carefully. The next second he almost screamed in fright.
"What on earth is... happening..."
Half an hour later, the Pierre surfaced, with most of the boat emerging from the sea.
The watchtower also rose up, and a lid on it opened. Leon was the first to pop his head out of it.
Instinctively, he wanted to take a breath of fresh air from the outside, but this action almost made him vomit - what he smelled was a strong and unique stench, like the smell of rotten meat and blood piled together for who knows how many years, which was far more provocative than a toilet.
"Wow!" Li Ang couldn't resist and vomited directly. Some dirty things fell directly onto the surface of the boat.
But even so it still did not count as a defilement of the ship, for it was already dirty enough.
After Leon, the agents came out one by one. Some of them vomited and some did not. Some stayed on the watchtower or went down to the outer deck and stood there, silently watching the scene around them.
This is a sea of blood.
It is not a "sea dyed red with blood", but a "sea made up of rotten blood and corpses".
The place was covered with a light mist, and everywhere was red. Scattered pieces of meat, bones and yellow fat were floating on the sea. These things rose and fell with the waves, washing the hull again and again, and many stains remained on them.
Further away, a... let's say it was a squid or an octopus, a giant creature with a body length of more than 50 meters was lying there. There were two huge and deep gaps on its body, which were undoubtedly the masterpiece of the Pierre just now.
But what is most disgusting and surprising is that this thing has eyes all over its body.
Yes - it was covered with eyes. The eyes on the tentacles gradually became smaller, and the eyes on the trunk gradually became larger. Yellow mucus was oozing out near the two gaps. There was no doubt that the largest eye had been poked out.
"This is impossible." Darent said in a exhausted and emotional tone, "This can't be the Seahorse Fjord..."
After returning from the shore, they did not leave the fjord, and had a full understanding of the surrounding area. It was impossible for the Seahorse Fjord to become like this in less than a day, and there was no blood in the world that could fill such a large fjord.
"No, remember the analysis she gave us before?" Ethan shook his head and repeated Hitzfeld's original guess: "'The gray fog may be connected to another world, the world where the evil gods sleep.'"
"You mean this blood not only fills the entire Seahorse Fjord, but is even larger than that, and even fills the entire ocean?"
"I'm afraid it's worse than that, Maps, because if that's the case, then this isn't Seahorse Sound - we've landed in a completely unfamiliar sea."
"You mean this is another world?"
