Chapter 1356: Undersea Anomaly
as Wu Daca went away from the capital city and settled in the pleasant climate of Jiangnan. From then on, mountains and rivers separated them, making it impossible to visit and ask for favors. They co..."Wind, go to Monihai first."
After making a decision, Ripple told the Whirlwind its destination. After confirming that the Whirlwind's direction of travel was alright, she contacted the Millstone and asked about the situation when she had just confronted the Special Agent.
This mission's leader was Bai, a veteran of special operations. He occasionally took some new recruits on missions with him, as long as no one mentioned it, things would just go by unnoticed. However, this time the people he brought lacked the ability to keep quiet and also had poor judgment.
Just when you were about to give up on the mission, Director Cen was right by my side. He just happened to use the excuse that the other party brought in unauthorized personnel into the mission plane to convince Captain Bai to ensure your mission would be successful this time.
Ripple listened, then frowned.
"Mortar, next time if I say give up, just take me back directly. I don't mind failing my mission."
"This... why They are the ones who broke the rules."
As you said, he's a veteran of special missions and he definitely has his own network. The people he brought this time might be after some special resources from the crumbling plane of existence. Director Cen handled it well, but that means I've offended these people. I doubt we can cooperate with them again in the future.
Besides, I'm only a high-level tasker now, not a special tasker. Even if I were a special tasker, I wouldn't be able to compare to those 'old timers'. Do you understand what I mean
The stone mill immediately reacted after hearing this. He had felt confident before because Director Cen was around, so he made Ripple wait. Now it seems that although the problem is solved, it has left hidden dangers for the future.
"I apologize. I wasn't thinking this through."
"No need to apologize. You were doing this for my own good. After all, this experience has taught me that not all taskers are created equal. Not every tasker is as exceptional."
Before, we carried out joint missions because everyone was on the same level and there wasn't an issue of who was stronger than whom. However, now the gap in strength is very obvious, and everyone is in unequal positions. They are the ones giving orders, not teammates who can be consulted. These are two different things.”
Ripple never thought she was the best, and she had a desire to become stronger. She could see the gap between herself and Bai's group, and she would strive to improve herself instead of being depressed and avoiding it.
"Okay, I understand. I will respect your opinion from now on."
"I am now heading to Monihai in this plane of existence to collect low-level beings. I will contact you once the task is complete."
"Okay, I will send you back as soon as possible."
The millstone responded promptly this time.
The ripples had now reached the skies above Moni Lake. Gazing at the azure waters, she felt a sense of peace wash over her. But the next moment, she sensed tremors emanating from the depths of the ocean.
With a flash of her eyes, Lianyi waved her hand, pulling the whirlwind into her spatial dimension. She then jumped into the sea herself. The moment she entered the water, her legs transformed back into a fishtail, and her ears quickly morphed, her gills behind them flapping rhythmically to help her breathe. Now, she was the undisputed ruler of the Moni Sea.
The ripples danced with shimmering scales as its fish tail swished, gliding towards the deep sea like an arrow loosed. In its ears, it could still hear the gasps and cries of the creatures of the sea:
"Help! My house has collapsed!"
"Oh no, the ocean is disappearing!"
"Run! The deep-sea monster has come out and is going to eat us all!"
"Where to go Our home is in Moni Bay..."
"Oh wise Sea King, please save us..."
These sounds let the ripples confirm that there was a problem in the deep sea. Although her meeting with Bai and others was brief and unpleasant, she had gained crucial information – the Heart of the Realm had been stolen!
Because of the loss of the core, this plane would collapse. They only used a substitute to temporarily stabilize it, but unfortunately, the time they gained should not be long. This, the farthest place from Mount Rob, has already started to have problems.
After Liàn Yī understood these things, she immediately dispersed her divine consciousness, quickly gathering the creatures of the sea. The voices of complaint and pleas guided her.
The ripples were moving very fast, and the creatures collecting them were also very fast. When she neared the deep sea, she saw her own kind.
Before the other party could discover her, she had taken all the mermaids into her space and was then stopped by a golden-tailed youth.
"Ripple, where did you go I thought humans had captured you!"
"I was indeed taken to the auction house, but I managed to escape back. What exactly happened in the deep sea"
Although Ripples doesn't have the original body's memories, it doesn't affect her ability to answer the other party's questions.
The sea monster has awakened and wants to escape from Moni Sea. Wang, along with all the warriors, is blocking its way.
The young boy said with a sad face.
"Have the remaining members of the tribe escaped"
The ripples immediately asked.
All underage sea creatures were driven out of the deep sea. The King let us escape on our own, while the others vowed to intercept the sea monster.
The young boy seemed to have foreseen the fate of his elders, a single tear rolling down his eye, transforming into a golden pearl.
Ripple raised her hand and caught the pearl, then said:
"I'm going to help them."
"Ripples, you..."
The young boy's golden eyes were filled with surprise. In his memory, his elder sister was always well-protected and somewhat naive. She had never been so composed and decisive before. He was about to ask the reason when he was taken into the space by Lianyi.
She didn't need to maintain the original persona since she was just there to help complete the task.
Immediately, a ripple spread as the fish's tail wagged, and it continued to accelerate into the deep sea. The whirlpools and obstacles in the water became increasingly numerous, and the waves grew stronger.
Without asking anyone, the ripples accurately found their direction, and with a single flick of the tail they arrived at the place where both sides were at an impasse.
"Go back, what are you doing here Are you looking for death"
A young merfolk immediately stepped in front of the ripples, speaking in a firm voice.
Seeing the glowing spear in his hand, Lian Ri knew this must be the Sea Warrior the boy had mentioned earlier. She didn't want to waste time, so she waved her hand and stored him in her spatial dimension before going to reunite with her own kind.
When the person blocking her view moved away, Ripples saw the sea monster the boy had talked about. It was a moving mountain, with a massive body, sharp fangs, and glowing energy along its spine, much like the monster Godzilla she had seen in a movie back in her modern world.
And at this time, thousands of armored mermaids were attacking them, trying to slow their departure from the deep sea.
Ripples didn't want to waste time, and quickly spread her divine sense, taking those merfolk desperately trying to stop the monsters into space.
"King! It's not good! Our warriors are disappearing constantly!"
A mermaid discovered something unusual and immediately reported it to the Sea King.
The Sea King's gaze accurately caught the ripple, and at this moment, the ripple came before the King. She bowed her head in a gesture of respect, then spoke,
"King, this world is about to collapse. I'm here to take you away."
The Sea King, with his blue beard tightly gripped in hand, held his trident and asked somewhat hesitantly:
"Is there no room for reconciliation""If I were a mutated wind spirit root, the wood-based spiritual energy I've cultivated would be wasted sooner or later. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to ascend to the Spirit Realm in my lifetime. I c...
