Star Rank Hunter

Chapter 363: The City Under the Sea

Xilin followed the sound and saw the gray cat squatting in front of a plant, stretching its paws into the reef next to the plant and digging. []

Gululu——

A small round ball rolled out with the gray cat's retracted paw.

The size of an ordinary pigeon egg, it is bright light blue.

"Xilin, I think this thing is quite valuable." The gray cat said while flicking the crystal-like ball with its claws bent.

Xilin picked up the small ball and looked at it. It was a bit cool in his hand, not too irritating chill, with a faint fragrance of plants, which only made people feel very refreshing.

"Oh, I didn't expect this to be here." Long also walked over, "People call it the 'Guardian Heart'."

"Guardian Heart?" The gray cat listened carefully with its ears pricked up. Long's explanation made him feel that this crystal-like ball was really valuable.

"Well, this is something that can only be produced in some special sea areas. The quality of the Guardian Heart produced here in Haitiantian is the best, and the effect is also the best."

Long explained the origin and purpose of the Guardian Heart to Xilin and Gray Cat. This crystal-like ball is actually synthesized by the roots of some plants on coral reefs. Its purpose is to expel sea beasts and some beasts that eat plants. , insects, etc. This kind of ball will slowly move to the surface after the root system is synthesized, but it will not show the surface. There are such spars around the plants near the surface, they form a circle to protect the plants and drive out some small sea beasts (travel through: my modern wife to read the full text). As for the large sea beasts, even if they cannot be expelled, they can still make those sea beasts lose their appetite for plants. Not to bite down.

"The breath above the guardian heart is very pleasant to humans, but it is like something disgusting to those sea beasts. So when you find that there are no small sea beasts around some plants on the coral reefs full of sea beasts .That means it synthesized the 'Guardian Heart' from its roots. The strange thing is that many researchers have tried to artificially synthesize the drugs that work in this spar, but the results are not ideal. Therefore, this natural The price of crystal stones in the market has always remained high. The price of Haitiantian's "Guardian Heart" has always been the highest among this kind of crystal stones. If it is like this one, it is estimated that it can be sold for a price of six to seven figures. This thing can be dug a little more, but you don’t need to dig if it hasn’t fully formed and hasn’t moved to the surface, and let these plants drive away sea beasts.”

Long said the last sentence to the gray cat, looking at the gray cat's brighter eyes, especially when he heard the words "very valuable". Those cat eyes are very bright.

Just as he was talking, Xiying, who was going to collect information, walked over from the other side.

"There are a lot of hallucinogenic substances in seawater, and native organisms can develop resistance, but outsiders can't." Xiying showed some analysis data to Xilin, and also mentioned the population distribution of sea beasts staying on the coral reefs around Condition.

"The sea beasts here and some fish in the sea cannot be eaten directly," Long said, suddenly remembering that the gray cat ate a big meal when cleaning this area before, Long turned his head and looked at the other plants that were vigorously fishing for crystals. Shi's gray cat, which looks like Xilin: "Does it really matter what the cat eats?"

"It's okay, it can still consume these things. Don't worry about it."

Xilin is used to it. The gray cat ate a lot of sea beasts when he was in the Lansa Empire. Although the sea beasts here are a bit special, they won't make the gray cat upset.

"Master, the detector found something. []" Someone said over there.

After landing on the atoll, several of Long's subordinates also quickly put the detector into the seawater to detect the surrounding sea area (read the full text of the counterfeit elf). Especially in the direction pointed by the star map, Long asked his men to place a few more detectors.

"What happened?" Long asked.

Xilin and Xiying also walked over, leaving only the gray cat struggling to dig the "treasure" around a few plants in the small jungle.

"Now the detector has descended to three thousand meters below the surface of the water. This is the result sent back by the detector." The man handed the electronic board in his hand to Long.

There is a wavy line on the electronic board. Due to the particularity of the environment here and the weirdness of the planet Haitiantian, the probe does not have any detailed data. It just displays some images and areas with abnormal detection waves and energy, and draws them into a three-dimensional map. Each depth corresponds to a point on the three-dimensional map, and at three kilometers, the detector detected an anomaly. From there, the color on the three-dimensional map began to change, and as the detector continued to sink, Colors intensify on 3D plots.

Looking at the results on the 3D map, Long seemed very excited. He knew that the "Tears of God" must be there. The energy reflection there was different from that in other sea areas. So far, only this area has such abnormalities. As a result, there were no such abnormal displays on the detectors in other sea areas.

"Why is there a ladder here? Is this a normal phenomenon?" Xilin asked, pointing to a place on the 3D map.

There is a steep slope below the sea surface of this circular coral reef, and it can be clearly seen from the three-dimensional map drawn by the detector that there is a ladder on this steep slope. One end of the ladder extends down to the sea floor.

"This kind of ladder is not for people to walk. Could it be a sea beast?" Long said.

No one knows whether this is man-made or natural. But I have to say that such a step feels weird to a few people.

"Continue to pay attention to the detectors in this area, and prepare by the way. After the detectors complete their detection, we will take action." Long ordered the others.

"Whoa—"

There was a long howling suddenly from the small forest where the gray cat was.

Xilin and the others turned their heads and looked over. Among the bushes, there was a tail with dark stripes flicking. The plants about twenty or thirty meters high could not cover this tail at all, and the branches and leaves of those plants were cut off by the big tail. Fly around. Some small sea beasts not far away were frightened by the roar and fled in all directions.

puff--

The blue blood sprayed and splashed on the large leaves of the plants, making a swishing sound. The movement of the big tail twitching the leaves gradually subsided.

Not long after. There was a rustling sound from far to near, and the leaves on the other side of the small forest swayed. Not long after, a big sea beast head was revealed.

To the astonishment of Long and the others. The gray cat bit the long tentacles around the mouth of the sea beast, and directly dragged the sea beast over. At first glance, such a size comparison is really exciting. In contrast, the difference in size when clearing the field before is much smaller.

The sea beast dragged by the gray cat looks a bit like an eel, with a trunk diameter of nearly five meters. It has many pairs of feet on its torso. Compared to those small sea beasts that were cleaned up by gray cats before. This sea beast should be at a higher level of the food chain. []

As the gray cat dragged it, the sea beast gradually revealed its full view, and there was a long wound on its abdomen, from which blue blood flowed out. Because of the gray cat's dragging, a blue trail was formed behind it.

After the gray cat dragged the sea beast to Xilin, he asked Xiang Xilin, "Do you want to eat it?"

Pascal and the others shook their heads in unison. Looking at this sea beast with its mouth open and its fangs showing its fangs, Pascaldo and the others lost their appetite at all. Just the blue drag mark and some internal organs on the mark made Pascaldo feel a little nauseous.

"What's wrong, that sea beast is not strictly an amphibious sea beast. Although it can crawl on the coral reef for a while, but not for a long time, it will only wash up on the coral reef when it is preying, but it is obviously not the time for it to prey (the lady also It’s hard to follow the latest chapter). And the little sea beasts in this area have all been chased away by Hulu, so what is this big guy doing here?” Long said, rubbing his chin.

The gray cat licked the blue blood on its paws, and quickly clarified itself, "It came out of the sea, and I didn't pay attention to it at first. I was digging hard, but who knew this guy came straight over , There are still a lot of gems I dug out, I can't let it be swallowed! This is really not what I want to cause trouble. This guy bumped into it."

Yingweiji looked at the sea and said, "There are schools of sawtooth fish."

Sawtooth fish is found in the information collected by the Andrea family, and it is relatively detailed. This is a typical population. Sawtooth fish live in the middle and upper waters, and they act in groups. Moreover, each fish school is very large. Tens of thousands of sawtooth fish are enough to discourage some large sea beasts in the middle and upper layers.

Adult sawtooth fish can reach five meters, and the opening angle of their mouth and jaw can reach 270 degrees. The powerful bite force can directly crush the bones of those small sea beasts. Therefore, when people from the Andrea family came over, they would avoid this group far away. This is not a chance to escape by escaping first blood.

"Those sawtooth fish are hunting. The big guy just wanted to hide on the coral reef." Ying Wiki continued, "There are about five minutes before the pioneer troop of the sawtooth fish will pass through this atoll area."

Long sighed, "In other words, even if we want to take action, we have to wait until all these troublesome guys have left."

Ying Wiki nodded solemnly: "Theoretically speaking, it is like this."

Xilin has to admit that in the ocean environment, his perception sensitivity is indeed inferior to that of people like Ying Wiki, and the reason why Ying Wiki can say these words with such certainty is also learned from the sea beasts and sea fish in the sea. of.

Being able to adapt to the new environment so quickly and start domesticating sea beasts, Ying Wiki deserves to be one of the top ten bodyguards around the old fox Andrea Fuchs.

"Go inside the aircraft, there will be a lot of sea beasts boarding the coral reefs outside later, let's avoid this wave first (wandering beauty)." Long called Xilin to take refuge inside the aircraft.

The gray cat handed all the "Guardian Hearts" it dug to Xilin for safekeeping, and it planned to stay outside to watch the excitement. Anyway, if the coral reef was too crowded, it would fly to the sky.

After Xilin entered the aircraft, some sea beasts came to the coral reefs one after another, but the "lords" in those areas did not come out to drive them away, they just gave a warning and then stopped. Unless the intruders made too much noise, those "lords" Only then will they come out to fight, other than that, they are all hiding in the cave, watching everything outside nervously.

Swish Swish Swish——

Some fish with wings outstretched fly out of the sea, and they fly from the outside of the atoll to the lagoon inside the atoll. In addition to this flying fish, there are also several small sea animals that crawl into the inside of the atoll from outside the atoll. The lagoon, which was quite deserted at first, suddenly became noisy.

The enclosed lagoon provides protection for the little ones. Because those sawtooth fish cannot land on coral reefs, nor can they jump and fly. With the barrier of the atoll in the middle, the flying fish escaped the shoal of the sawtooth fish.

but. These flying fish dodge schools of jagged fish, but face other predators, such as gray cats flying through the air with their wings spread.

The gray cat spread its wings and hung there, waiting for the flying fish to come to the door. It just opened its mouth and waited. If you don't want to eat it. Deliberately stretch out the fat cat claws to beat those flying fish back to their original places one by one, or take the flying fish directly to the place where other sea beasts are on the coral reef.

How can there be no reason not to eat it delivered to your door?

Therefore, the sea beasts who had taken refuge on the coral reef opened their mouths wide open to the flying fish photographed in front of them.

Seeing this scene, Pascaldo and others who were hiding in the aircraft had an idea: this cat is really cheap! Those flying fish would probably be depressed about how they encountered this evil star.

There are more and more sea beasts on the coral reefs (the latest chapter of Never Lose Youth). And the sawtooth fish showed their shadows too.

On the surface of the sea, elongated triangular dorsal fins emerged from the water, and some poor guys who didn't have time to jump on the coral reef or even couldn't get on the coral reef were directly torn up and swallowed by the sawtooth fish. Apart from the preying sawtooth fish, there were also many half-bitten or half-bitten mutilated bodies that were thrown out of the water due to the bite and swing of the sawtooth fish.

The sea water, which was originally blue, became even bluer.

Xilin remembered that sentence again: The blue color of the sea is dyed by the blood of sea beasts.

Five minutes later, as far as the eye could see, there were all those floating triangular dorsal fins on the sea surface, and this was just the pioneer of this school of fish. There are other members of the fish school around behind, and the sea below the water surface is also full of these ferocious guys.

Boom!

The gray cat that patted the flying fish in the air jumped into the sea.

"What is that fat cat doing?" Pascaldo asked.

"I guess I'm bored playing in the sky, let's go underwater to watch the fun." After a pause, Xilin said again: "Turn on a monitor."

After Long turned on one of the closed monitors in the aircraft, Xilin signaled Xiying to connect the monitor with Gray Cat for data.

After a while, the underwater scene appeared on the monitor, which was also what the gray cat saw, and it transmitted what it saw back to the aircraft.

In the waters below the sea surface around the atoll, it was a tragic battle for predation. Sawtooth fishes force other sea fish and sea beasts to the atoll. After all, only a few species can climb up to the coral reef or fly directly over like flying fish. Blocked here, they have no way out, because the school of sawtooth fish has already forced them over.

There are minced meat and scales everywhere, and the iconic big mouth and teeth of the sawtooth fish are everywhere. The sea water, which is obviously much darker than before, makes people feel cold when they look at it (the latest chapter of Summoning a Beautiful Girl).

The people in the aircraft were watching the tragic situation displayed on the monitor, and the results sent back by the detector diverted everyone's attention.

"The probe has reached the seabed!" one person said excitedly.

From the results sent back by the detector, everyone could see a strange scene appeared in the three-dimensional image.

It is like a city under the sea. Although it is only a rough outline, it is very exciting to see these.

Yes, the tears of God must be there!

"Is the video screen not turned on? Why is there no video result over there?" Long asked.

"Boss, all three detectors that reached the seabed have lost contact."

"Master, the fourth one who got there also lost contact."

"Young master... the fifth one, also lost contact."

After the five probes sent to that coordinate reached the seabed, they lost contact with the aircraft without even being able to capture a video on the screen.

Xilin remembered some things Ah Yue mentioned when she talked about "Tears of God".

When the people of the Xi family were studying "Tears of God", in order to better understand those sea beasts, they once lived on the bottom of the sea for a while.

Ah Yue used "lived" instead of "stayed" or other words, and related to the blurred outline on the 3D map, Xilin thought: Could it be that the Xi family built an underwater city on the seabed?

Although it sounds unbelievable, after all, this is a "sea paradise" rather than other ordinary sea areas, and it is difficult for an aircraft to fly here, let alone build a city on the bottom of the sea (the master of supernatural powers is on the campus). But the Xi family is indeed not a family inferred by common sense.

Maybe, it's really possible.

"How long will it take for the group of sawtooth fish to leave?" Long looked at Yingweiji.

"Theoretically speaking, it will take at least an hour."

"but?"

"However, if you are in a hurry, we can try to tame those sawtooth fish and let them leave early."

Long thought for a while, then waved his hand, "Forget it, there are too many fish schools, it's too exhausting, and we need a lot of energy to go underwater, so it's better to save some energy now. It's all here, wait How about an hour."

Xilin looked at Xiying who had a thoughtful expression on his face, and asked, "What did you find?"

"The loss of contact between the five detectors was caused by magnetic field interference." Xiying replied.

"Magnetic field? Isn't that an instrument that can resist the magnetic field of this planet? Our Andrera family spent a lot of manpower and material resources to make it." Long frowned.

Xiying shook his head, "They are indeed able to resist the planet's magnetic field strength, but at a target point, the magnetic field is strengthened by two to three times, making the five instruments unable to work normally."

"Is it their handwriting?" Xilin asked.

"They" refers to those people from the Xi family back then.

"Yes."
