This was an underwater world. Seaweed was everywhere, and stone houses were everywhere. White figures and schools of fish swam back and forth in this wonderful underwater city.
Although there were no roads in the city, every house was still arranged neatly. In addition to the ordinary houses where the Skeleton Dragons lived, there were some very special buildings. For example, below the spy, there was a round pillar with a statue on it.
The statue was of a White Skeleton Dragon, holding a three-pointed spear and wearing a strangely shaped armor. There were words written at the bottom of the pedestal: 'In memory of our great King Aras's outstanding contribution in the war against the Sea Demons. May his soul remain here and protect the peace of Ocean City forever.'
In fact, this statue was everywhere. Lin had read about the so-called 'King Arras' in the library. It mainly said that he had a wonderful weapon that could summon lightning and make the waves tumble. He used this weapon to defeat a monster from the sea and saved the city of the Skeleton Dragons …
The Skeleton Dragons really liked to do this kind of thing, but they mainly liked to imagine the things they worshipped in their imagination to look exactly like them, instead of the various forms like the Emerald Dragons. This was quite special.
Perhaps there were more dangers in the sea, so they set up these statues everywhere to protect the safety of the surroundings. However, they also understood that these statues had no practical use, so there were still many soldiers here.
However, it was not easy to rely on the guards alone because danger could come from everywhere. The Skeleton Dragons preferred to raise a kind of creature to protect them.
Now, the spy happened to swim past a 'submarine farm' where such creatures were raised.
This place, which was called a farm, looked like a large stone cage. In the cage, there were many creatures called 'bubble shrimps' moving around …
At the same time, the bubble shrimps were also the creatures that made the bubbles needed by the Skeleton Dragons. The spy swam above the cage. Some bubbles were stuck to the ground, and there were oval-shaped eggs in them.
At this time, a Skeleton Dragon opened the door of the cage. This Skeleton Dragon was holding a ball of seaweed in its hand. It touched the seaweed to the bubbles, and the bubbles immediately stuck to the seaweed.
Then, it took the eggs out of the bubbles and stuffed them into other bubbles nearby. Finally, it emptied the bubbles stuck to the seaweed and left.
This bubble was used to replenish the air in the house. Bubble shell shrimps could make this kind of special bubble. The outer shell of the bubble was covered with a large amount of sticky substance, and the inside was filled with oxygen. Generally, bubble shell shrimps used this kind of bubble to put their eggs.
Their behavior was very strange. Generally, aquatic and terrestrial arthropods would return to the water to lay their eggs, but the bubble shrimps would leave their eggs in the air, probably to prevent some marine parasites.
However, their behavior was discovered and used by the White Skeleton Dragon to build an underwater house. The viscous substance of the Bubble Shell Shrimp was very stable. As long as one did not use too much force, the bubbles would not burst.
At the same time, the Bubble Shell Shrimp was also a large creature with a body length of about three meters. Lin believed that they came from creatures like the Brondo scorpions, and they would not attack the White Skeleton Dragon. For some reason, the White Skeleton Dragon could not command them. However, as long as they were released, they would move around the White Skeleton Dragon's house and city. They would automatically protect the safety of the White Skeleton Dragon's city. These shrimps were quite hostile to other more dangerous sea creatures.
Therefore, bubble shell shrimps could be seen everywhere in this sea city, and the White Skeleton Dragon would chase some of the shrimps that were in the breeding period to the 'farm' to collect the bubbles.
The establishment of the sea city must have had a lot to do with these shrimps. The main reason why the White Skeleton Dragon wanted to live in the water was probably related to the plague fungus. The White Skeleton Dragon accidentally discovered that the fungus was afraid of seawater, so they became very fond of water.
They must have been active in the water for a long time. Lin's current position was more than a hundred meters above the water surface, but they could still move freely at this depth. Their lungs must be able to withstand a certain amount of pressure.
And the castle that Lin wanted to go to was in a deeper place.
It stood beside an oceanic trench. The style of the castle was almost exactly the same as the cities on land. It was a square castle, but slightly smaller, about fifty meters in height and three hundred meters in width. Looking at it from afar, Lin felt that it was an amazing building...
It was hard to imagine how long it took the White Skeleton Dragon to build this huge underwater castle.
And how did it do it? There should be no way to glue stones together in the water. Those smaller buildings were easier to build as long as they were stacked on top of each other, or they could be built slowly with a large piece of stone. But how was a huge castle built?
The spy had now arrived in front of the castle. He slowly landed in front of the gate. There were no buildings around, only piles of gravel and various marine plants.
Many glowing fish swam around the spy, as if they were very curious about the spy. Lin was very curious about the castle...
The gate was very small, only a little more than two meters wide. It was not as large as the ones on land, but although it was small, there were a lot of them. A large number of small gates lined up at the bottom of the castle walls. Lin was a little confused about which gate to enter.
Or were these gates all connected?
Lin approached one of the gates and placed her hand on the stone gate covered in tiny algae. This feeling... it was not ordinary stone, but... a crustaceous object? This was a coral crustaceous object!
Lin was a little surprised. Not only this gate, but the surrounding walls, perhaps the entire castle was made of coral crustaceous objects...
Could it be that there was originally a huge coral here, and the Emerald Dragon built it into a castle? But it was impossible for such a large castle to be built with scattered coral bones.
But there was no coral in the vicinity, and why did the coral grow on the edge of the oceanic trench, and grow so big?
It did not feel good to have more questions than information. No matter what, this coral should have died long ago, and the White Skeleton Dragon just happened to use its skeleton...
"Coo..." Just as Lin was thinking, the spy suddenly heard a low sound... When the sound was heard, the glowing fish in the surroundings fled in an instant.
It felt like a dangerous creature was about to appear...
Lin looked up. That was where the sound came from. She saw a giant creature lying on top of the city wall. Its eyes were fixed on the spy.
Lin noticed that this creature looked a little like a crocodile, but its body was slender and longer. It also looked like a new type of reptilian 'snake', but it also had four thick limbs with giant claws. Its head was similar to a large carnivorous dinosaur, but its tail was flatter.
This creature's form was very suitable for swimming in water, and its body was quite large, about twenty-five meters in length. It was a giant carnivorous marine creature.
Also, it looked like a reptile. Other than a crocodile, this was the first time Lin had seen a giant reptile in the sea.
However, this creature seemed to be extremely hostile towards the spy. Its eyes were fixed on the spy. This was not a normal hunting creature. Normal creatures would hide this kind of thing when they were hunting, but this creature did not hesitate to release it. It was as if it simply wanted to kill the spy.
Why? Did the spy have some kind of grudge against it? Obviously not, and the spy was too small for it. It would not want to eat the spy...
"Coo!"
Suddenly, the creature opened its mouth, and a huge amount of air bubbles shot out of its mouth. The spy immediately felt a wave of heat coming at him. These air bubbles... were hot?
The spy stomped on the ground, turned around, and swam backward to avoid the attack of the air bubbles.
At this moment, the creature suddenly rushed over. Rin noticed that the way it swam was like a fish, swaying its body left and right, but its speed was very fast. In a flash, its huge body rushed from the top of the castle to the ground, violently slamming into the seabed, stirring up a large cloud of dust.
However, this creature was not affected by the dust. It quickly discovered the spy hidden in the dust and rushed over.
It seemed to have some kind of detection ability, perhaps relying on smell or something else. However, Lin believed that the creature did not have the ability to breathe in water. It needed to breathe on the surface of the water.
The spy quickly swam to higher ground, and the creature followed closely. The spy was very fast in the water, much faster than ordinary skeletal dragons. However, the creature was approaching at an even faster speed. But just as it was about to touch the spy, it suddenly turned around and swam back, then lay on the top of the castle.
This was quite strange...
Thinking about this, Lin let the spy swim closer. The creature suddenly raised its head and looked at the spy with hostility. When the spy swam away, it lay back down...
It felt like it was guarding the castle. This was really interesting. Did it have something to do with the 'Sea King' inside? Or did it just treat the castle as its territory? No wonder there were no skeletal dragon houses around. But if that was the case, how could other skeletal dragons enter the castle?
In any case, it was easy for Lin to get in. The spy only needed to change its color, and it could get close to the castle.
Although the creature could find the spy in the dust, it did not react to the spy's approach at all. The spy casually pushed open a door under the castle and walked into the castle. Floating astronomy.
