Turbid, empty, and quiet.
That was Lin's evaluation of the Moon Sea.
The Leviathan was now in the dark sea, slowly exploring the surrounding environment. Moving here was more dangerous than moving in the storm above.
… But this was just a feeling. In fact, it was very calm under the Moon Sea. It was far away from the storm above the sea. Everything became quiet, and only rumbling sounds could be heard from time to time.
'Boom …' Now, the sound was heard again.
It seemed to be coming from the seabed, but there was nothing abnormal around. The Leviathan was now slowly swimming over a trench.
The sea here was very turbid. Tiny particles floated everywhere in the sea, like dust in the air.
It was not known where these particles came from, but it also caused the sea to be mixed with a kind of poison. This kind of poison could not be resisted by the creatures on the Moon …
Therefore, there were no creatures here. In addition, there were very few decomposable substances in the sea, so there were no fungi.
The water on Gray Nightmare Island was filtered by the inner structure of the island, so there were creatures gathered there.
In this sea, there was only the silence of nothingness … However, there were still some special things at the bottom of the sea.
The Leviathan swam to the edge of the trench, stretched out its tentacles, and gently hit the seabed.
The tentacles' movements stirred up a large amount of mud and dust. The tentacles moved quickly, digging up all the surrounding mud and dust. A lot of mud and dust had accumulated at the bottom of the sea, but it seemed to be because of the water flow. The dust had not reached a very thick level yet. The tentacles dug about two meters deep. The light emitted by the Leviathan shone on the rock below.
On this rock, there were many protruding outlines.
These outlines were basically only a few centimeters long. After the mud and dust were swept away, their clear traces could be seen. These things were round, long, and all kinds of shapes.
They were fossils.
And there were some similarities with the Moon creatures seen now, although the shapes were different. But the composition of the shells in the fossils was very similar to that of the creatures on Gray Nightmare Island.
They were probably creatures in the same evolutionary system, but these in the sea were more primitive and smaller.
If one dug up the mud and dust in other places, they could also find some similar fossils. Their forms were extremely rich. At present, the Leviathan was digging while swimming over. Now, it had found hundreds of creatures.
All of this showed that … this sea used to be an extremely rich place. Perhaps the environment in the past was not like this, but a very good area. When did the environment of Yue undergo such a drastic change?
The formation time of these fossils was unclear because what was left behind were all crustaceans. However, it was more difficult to determine the age of the inner composition of these shells, which was different from the method used on the pompoms.
Although there were abundant fossils under the mud and dust. However, there weren't any living creatures in the dust. This place was supposed to be a place where fungi could easily gather, but every time she searched, Lin would feel disappointed.
However, Leviathan had only explored a part of the ocean, and there were still other places that it had yet to explore.
The Leviathan swam past the previous trench and entered a place where stone pillars stood everywhere …
In the dark and impurity-filled seawater, Leviathan used sound to explore the surrounding environment. These stone pillars here were actually small islands. They extended all the way to the surface of the sea. No one knew why these strange stone pillars were formed.
Around these stone pillars, there were also some outlines of fossils …
The Leviathan observed these stone pillars, and Lin noticed that some of the fossils looked similar to the primitive creatures on the pompoms.
Gurgle.
Suddenly, the Leviathan heard a sound nearby. According to its detection, it was a few bubbles and a relatively large object …
The Leviathan turned around and looked into the distance. The light emitted by the Leviathan could only illuminate a hazy scene in the dust-filled seawater. In this hazy scene, a strange object could be seen on the seabed.
The Leviathan swam over, and under the clear light, Lin saw … a skeleton.
It was the creature she saw on the island filled with debris …
But this time, there were more bones. Not only the skull, but also the bones of the body. The skeleton of the body seemed to be completely sealed, like an armor covering the internal organs. It was not like the creatures on the pom-poms that had one bone at a time.
Lin was sure that this was a skeleton and not an outer shell. According to the traces left on it, and the ratio of the sternum to the skull, it was possible to see that there was a layer of skin outside.
This skeleton was much larger than the one Lin found on the island, but they had the same shape. Perhaps the one on the island was a young one.
The composition of this skeleton … was not the same as the shell of the creatures of the moon. There were no cells inside, and it was not like the creatures on the pompoms who liked to put their immune and hematopoietic organs in their bones …
This skeleton did not have limbs, but it had a body and a head. However, there were some traces left on it, and there were even some skin flakes on the bones. It was obvious that its skin was harder, and …
Lin felt that this creature had not died for long, and it was not the poisonous dust that killed it, but another creature.
Gurgle. The sound of bubbles came from the surroundings again. The Leviathan looked around, and although it was hazy, Lin was very clear about everything here …
A creature was hiding behind the stone pillar, and it seemed to be watching everything …
However, it did not know that the Leviathan was watching it as well.
This creature did not have limbs, and it looked like an eel. Its body was ten meters long, and its body was more than one meter in diameter. The shape of its head matched the skull of this skeleton.
So that was it … It seemed that this skeleton was only a small part. Was its entire body that long?
With that thought, the Leviathan suddenly sped up and rushed towards the creature. The creature immediately turned around and fled as if it was startled.
Its speed was very fast, almost a hundred meters in two seconds. It kept swimming at this speed, and the Leviathan followed closely behind. At this time, it passed by the trench from before, and the creature instantly swam into the trench and kept running deeper into it.
The trench was only about two meters wide, and the Leviathan could not enter because of its large body, but … Lin had already aimed at the creature.
Bang!
After a dull sound, a sharp object instantly pierced through the sea and directly pierced into the back of the creature. Its figure suddenly stopped in the water … Heavens.
